agree.  the injury excuse is BS.  San Fran missing one of the best individual player in NFL,  and a bunch of other stars and is rolling

I'm pissed too but this thread is hilarious. A perfect microcosm of this bipolar fan base. 

 

A horrible 20 min and it's like the 1st 3 games completely disappeared from people's memories.

The difference in this game to the previous 3?  The trenches.  Allen was hardly touched/pressured in the first 3 game.  It looked like our line was a wall.  This week, everyone is missing blocks and getting beat physically.

 

Same thing on defense.  While our defensive line can rush the passer in most cases, when they are getting mauled in the run game, it changes everything.  They aren't built to stop the run.

 

Styles make fights and the Ravens are the exact opposite of what we are built to stop.

Let’s just sit our starters to prevent injuries. Just not our night. Move on to Houston.

100% agree it would be the smart thing to do. So far tonight though the Bills haven’t done anything smart.

Daring us to throw over the top…. Again.

We have no WRs to speak of. Nice having a few decent guys but at some point you have to give Josh weapons. We don’t have any

It's real bad on my couch. I can't imagine what you're going through. At least you tried.

I was also at the last road game at Tennessee when Henry ran like an 80 yard td.  UGh

I thought this WR group was quietly awesome

Coleman torched his defender deep and was wide open deep on the sack.  The issue is the OL getting punched in the mouth every play

Punting on 4th and 1 is where McDermott lost me tonight. Have a feel for the game!! You NEED to score a bunch. You can’t stop anything. That was a losing decision. 

Expand  

0 feel for the game. Down two scores, defence can't stop anything and he points on 4th and 1

Can we make a stop or is this D just going to embarrass themselves all night?

[BuffaloBill]

Ravens penalty declined by the Bills

[Bimmer323i]

And where the ***** is Coleman has he even caught a ball tonight… Our coveted first round pick essentially 

[boco357]

How were the Raiders and Cowboys lighting up their D

Sorry not blaming Josh or Dalton.  Just asking if he's injured or just wanted Knox in there?

Expand  

Knox is a better blocker. I think that was the reason.

A TD here makes this over

[Sojourner]

this feels like a hockey game where we’ve got a guy constantly in the penalty box. or a soccer game where were a man down via red card. 
 

 

[Danger Mouse]

Ok. Will just have to take our medicine here.

 

Nobody was expecting a perfect season. Still early enough for lessons can be learned from this one.

 

But Baltimore will have to go full Harbaugh to give his one up from here.  Absolute cakewalk for them. Not one match up is being won by Buffalo.

 

Big worry is we've just showed the whole NFL our weak spots. But it's a week by week league. This was always one of our hardest fixtures.

2nd and 12...no problem don't need 3rd
