Just remember this: As soon as the game ended, we are all Dallas fans for the next 7 days

Dallas better figure out how to stop RB1 in Miami. Lovely that Bills did NOT play into DAL D pass/speed strength

There was clearly something wrong with Micah Parsons from the very beginning of the first series.

Minimal jump, no power, sucking wind 4 plays in; he wasn't right tonight.

 

He hurt his leg early in the game when a Bills OL got blocked into it - looked like he grabbed his knee - assume it was a contusion or they wouldn't have let him back in

Dallas would say that they missed the Diggs fumble.

Don’t you know the OL is feeling good!  What an absolute domination of the big guys. 
The Cowboys have a great pass rush and good corners so rather than trying to beat that, we put out a game plan that renders those both useless. We just may have a real OC.

Marc Miller predicted this game in 1993..crazy!

I'm home from the game and have several reactions. 

 

1.  One of the best home crowds ever.  The first series wasn't as loud as it was going to get at some points in the game, but on the first series, my friend said, "It's really loud in here," and it was.  During last week's Cowboys game, the announcers explained how this season at some point when the adjustments have been made at the line of scrimmage, the blocking assignments and the audibles and all, Prescott yells, "Here we go!"  That means, "Okay, stop talking, I'm starting the snap count."  Well, today, no one ever heard Dak say, "Here we go!"

 

2.  I don't pretend to understand the details of the Xs and Os, but Joe Brady understands something.  The Bills figured out how to run on the Cowboys, and it was amazing.  That was offensive coordinator excellence on display.    Who knows how well the Bills would have passed the ball if they had needed, but they didn't to, because ...

 

3.  The defense was amazing.  Again, I don't know Xs and Os, but the Bills certainly knew something about shutting down CeeDee Lamb.  

 

4.  When the Bills finally needed to pass, there was one of the sweetest Allen to Diggs connections ever.  What a play.  

 

5.  Everyone saw Cook, and there is pretty much nothing I can say that would be news to anyone.  Still, his combination of patience and explosive quickness is amazing.  

 

6.  Why in the world did the Cowboys play Prescott and Lamb on their touchdown drive?  The outcome was decided, and an injury to either at this point of the season could be devastating.  Did Jerry Jones call down from his box and tell McCarthy he was fired if the Cowboys didn't score a touchdown?

 

The Bills desperately needed a win, especially because the other games this week didn't help the Bills much, and the Bills were thoroughly prepared and emotionally ready.  Super win.

He might have been winded still:
 

“Micah Parsons added to injury report with illness, is expected to play Sunday night December 10, 2023 12:24 PM”

It was well before that; they were down closer to the goalline at that point.

Even at the other end of the field when the Bills first started that opening drive, it was clear that he wasn't right, imo.

I had a good feeling they’d win especially with weather expected and Dallas being an average road team but I didn’t expect that.  Gotta hand it to the coaching staff.  What a well prepared team win

It must have been the hostile atmosphere

I mean OJ

Then you didn't watch Thurman who was an MVP  and an incredible dual threat. OJ was strictly a runner

[Since1981]

McD was too slow and loyal for Dorsey. This team is too good for some of this early games. Brady. Wowza

He looked sick.

Maybe the Chefs in the endzone seats were flashing their bellies at him.

I mean, it's funny, and a perfect comment, but just the fact that that was Josh Allen out there was exactly the reason why we were able to run the ball like that today.

 

Exactly, thank you for saying this. I've been begging the Bills for years to take advantage of easy opportunities in the run game given to us by defenses selling out to stop Josh's right arm. There are wide open rushing lanes against every team we face because they're deathly afraid of us hitting a 40 yard pass.

Rapp is a jacka-.

Rapp had a decent game, and that PF called on him was totally bogus. I loved the agression he showed there...."Kill the QB" whenever & wherever you can. On that play, Dak was FIVE YARDS past the 1st down marker and could have easily run out of bounds, but he didn't. He turned left, toward the middle of the field, looking to gain even more yards, but then he saw Rapp flying toward him, AND AT THE LAST MOMENT he slid down. It was impossible for Rapp to put on the brakes.

 

And the 2nd roughing the passer call (can't remember if it was called on Dodson or Benford or someone else) on Dak was even worse, as he was nowhere near in a slide.

 

Like I have half jokingly said in this forum before, put a pink skirt on QBs, and make them able to be downed by two hand touch.

 

PS - the RTP call that Josh got was also a gift from the refs, and it is apparent he has been taking some acting lessons with Hailee. LOL

[Kaenon]

The cowgirls fans are idiotic.

All week saying Josh is average...

And they still are saying it, 

Lol!
