I thought Cam lewis looked good. 

He looked better as the game went on, definitely had some whiffs early on, but you can probably say that about the defense as a whole.

We really needed Milano today, but thankfully pulled it off nevertheless. Praying somehow he's able to return even one week ahead of what is currently projected.

He would have helped, but clearly we didn't need him as the Cardinals had 270 yards total and did virtually nothing in the 2nd half.

Was really surprised that Oliver did not seem to make a difference today.  I don't think he even showed up on the stat sheet.

Dude is fools gold- never shows up when you need him…he should not see another contract from the Bills…we can do better…we NEED to do better 👍

We can’t depend on an undersized, often injured player.  We are better without him.

Allen's passing chart for those like me that love these....

 

 

Also Colemans routes

 

 

No Diggs or Worthy routes this week but here is some Gabe

 

 

And Cook rushes

Holy crap let’s go!!! Our D closed one out!!! Still think the last drive was bad not going for the throat and also not going for it on 4th and 2.  

Still ticked we rushed that 3rd down play. Call the TO, call your best play to get 2 yards.

Absolutely agree. Call a time out. Get your best play ready to go. Convert. Game over.
 

No need to rush to the line to get the play off at that moment with three time outs remaining!!

 

I want Josh to have better situational awareness. It’s his team after all. Use the time out. He should feel deputized to use the timeout whenever he needs it.

 

edit: Bills had only two TOs remaining. 
 

( I think the logic still holds )

They actually only had 2 remaining at that point because they burned one earlier in the half.

Coach saves his TOs for 3rd on Defense only.

I'm only now checking up on the box score since I had to work, but how is there not a dedicated Greg Rousseau thread already?

 

He had 3 sacks?! What!

 

The score was too close for it to be considered "garbage" time sacks, so what's the deal? Did he do as well as the stats seem to suggest?

This defense needs to be MUCH better against Waddle and Hill.

 

Hopefully this is preseason game 1 and they'll be in rhythm next week

I hear this every year, and the Bills still manage to beat them.

 

Yes, the Bills have to face Waddle and Hill. The Dolphins have to face Allen.

They need to extend him because he's going to have a monster year

I was on the road and only saw most of the second half.

Throughout that second half, that man was an absolute menace.

I'm afraid that they've already tried and he's not biting.

Sometimes you need to pony up

 

They don't make 6'6 , 6'7 ends like him

Feel free to keep your blinders on. God Bills fans are so delusional. Wake up. The freaking Cards at home man? Enough said

You are aware that the Bills won the game, yes?

[BillsfaninSB]

Hopefully the Cards are truly a tough out and can beat an AFC east team or two.

Did anyone think that the OL looked slimmed down a bit? Maybe it was my mind playing tricks on me or the uniform but Dawkins and Torrence is especially looked slimmer

It blows my mind that NFL has this stupid replay system with challenges and the refs staring at ipads when the majority of plays an 'eye in the sky' could just reverse it with no delay - easily and quickly seeing what millions of people sitting on their couch also see clearly

That’s how they get extra commercial breaks in.
