Mercy that was far too stressful. Team’s energy level was off from the get go with is just unacceptable. Not sure if I liked their overall offensive game plan as they were almost 50/50% run to pass. 
 

This should have been a game to get the passing offense humming as the Chargers have been putrid defending the pass.  Josh looked off from the onset. I really wish they would do more design runs on the edges vs up the middle when they run Josh. 
 

Harty and Cook with bad turnovers. 
Von was MIA this game and looked uninspired.

Ed with a strong night but the rest of the DL was non impactful far too often

Josh seemed to ignore the easy passes tonight.

Nice to see Shakir and Gabe contribute

Strong night for Martin

The Jekyl and Hyde personality with this team is maddening!

 

9-6 and in control of their playoff destiny! On to New England. Let’s go Dallas and Raiders!

 

Merry Christmas BillsMafia!!!!

 

 

I thought Rousseau was good early and Ford made some plays as well.  Floyd and Miller were quiet though.  Need Epenesa and Jones back in there.

ARTICLE 5. FREE KICK CROSSES GOAL LINE

It is a touchback, if a free kick:

is not touched by the receiving team, and the ball touches the ground in the end zone.
 

straight from NFL regulations website. 
 

This sounds like that kickoff should have been a safety to me. 
 

I’m still confused why that wasn’t the call, also that should have been a Bills TD in the Huston playoff game a few years back 🤬

In the end I think this win was more satisfying than the blowout I hoped for and expected. And more beneficial to the team's progress than a blowout win would have been. (Though for most of the game I was really cursing out those Charger players making plays, shocking even myself with some of my word combinations.)

 

It showed the Bills can overcome an overall very mediocre performance and prevail on the road.

 

It also showed the team something they do not want to experience again in the next 7 weeks.  So they learned yet another valuable lesson, one that will make them even stronger.

 

When they showed the AFC playoff picture after the game, the Bills now in 6th place in the playoffs if the season ended today, I just sat there smiling at the image on the TV like a kid coming into the living room on Christmas morning  and seeing the presents under the Christmas tree!  Strange but true.

I’m sorry.  What play was this?

[Dan]

I know a lot of posters are frustrated and out of their heart meds. But Josh and the Boys just gave us a win to savor over Christmas, while vaulting into the #6 seed position.  
 

Yeah it was ugly… but man it feels so much better drinking to this win than the alternative would have been.   Enjoy people.  The season is just beginning !! 
 

Go BILLS!!!

This didn’t get enough attention. I felt like I needed an explanation here. 
 

I understand he called fair catch, but he muffed the football and then took a knee in the end zone.

I don’t know if this is a popular take or not but I find Chris Brown’s “ride em cowboy!!!” call after every Ed Oliver sack to be incredibly cringey 

 

I can't listen to Chris Brown. He is cringeworthy.

Makes up for the Jets fiasco!!!

Not for nothing but don't the Chargers have decent weapons on Offense, them being down Herbert and Staley being an idiot was always the big things for me going into this week. Staley getting fired sucked and the new guy definitely got them to play. So with dangerous weapons a chaos play like that can be a pain in the ass, especially I'd think if you have a scheme heavy defense which I think we have. But I might just be wrong. Also It's important to remember you just have to get a stop there's no FG anymore.

He did “ride ‘em cowboy” twice.  Kinda goofy.

 

I will say he has improved.  Has stopped pressing so hard to make memorable calls.

Most important game of the season and the Bills beat a team that just fired their HC/GM, and missing their starting QB, #1/#2WR, C, and starting DE by 2 points.  This is the same ***** we pulled against the Dolphins in the playoffs last year.  McD rarely has this team ready to play.  They are the dumbest, most undisciplined team in the league.  I don’t care what happens the remainder of this season, I will never be sold on McDingus as the HC.

 

On any NFL weekend, half the coaches lose.  I'm ecstatic our coach was in the upper 50%.  

 

A good coach wins big sometimes, wins nailbiters other times, and even loses sometimes.  The Bills could have played better but I'm thrilled to be on the winning side of things.  

 

Calling the head coach names ("McDingus") is silly.  The world is effed up enough.  We don't have to add to it by being disrespectful to each other.  But let me ask, since you said that you don't care what happens the rest of the season.  Are you saying that if McDermott's Bills win the Super Bowl, you still won't be sold on him?

I will say there was one thing that had me scratching my head tonight…..

 

After last week and almost having 2 punts blocked, the Bills had Damar Hamlin in punt protection tonight.

 

I mean, it worked but I have to admit I said WTF when I noticed.

That Austin Ekeler commentary where he wants to know how the team is going to use him.

 

Austin you are 28 years old and run the ball at a 2.9 yards per carry clip.

He's been backup at that all year, and Rapp did a bad job at that last week They gave Demar a shot. Makes sense.
