So if McDermott just ran it 3 times into the line and forced Houston to use all their timeouts, you'd at the very least gain 3 to 5 yards, have a better punt, and Houston wouldn't of been able to do that dump pass to get closer....how's this not a fireable offense???

They still could have ran a play.

You do know we have a former ref in the booth looking at replay calls, right?

I've been told that we have one up in the booth though it sure looked like a catch to me.  Also at that point in the half we had the TO to spare.

To be fair, the defense played great after mid 2nd quarter.

Game doesn’t start after halfway through the second quarter..

He's figured out job security  Go for good not great They said they aimed for long term sustainability and we are  the bridesmaid each year  Beat up on door mats maybe win 1 or 2 games against decent opponents and come up short in playoffs  He nailed QB1 rest is meh in 6 drafts

 

Ahh, you mean the Mike Tomlin.

I find it adorable that grown ups get so upset about an away loss to a good team when the Bills still lead the division. Sure, losing sucks but it’s not the end of the world. Losing a playoff game ends the season and justifies some outbursts, but a regular season loss?
 

The season is alive and well and this is not the time of the year we should peak. 

They lead the division because the division is almost certainly the weakest in the NFL. They'll win the division at 9-7 or maybe even 10-6, but if 5 or 6 of the wins are against the East it means almost nothing in the playoffs.

And good QB play

9-30 130 yards.  MVP

What were they supposed to do given that running would have also resulted in a punt to midfield or worse vs a kicker who can make 65 yarders? Need to get a first there.

The particular pass play calls were stupid. And there is no problem running on at least two of those plays to force them to burn timeouts at the very least. Play action would have been useful as well. Just a crap fest by Brady.

Using our timeouts on defense killed us as Texans would have had to use theirs

I think an ex-ref has a better idea

And at their worst the Chiefs haven't fielded a WR group as bad as this one.  With Shakir out that is a practice squad group.  I'm hoping Coleman will develop but Samuel looks like a bust like Harty & Sherfield.

That’s right, they haven’t. Their Defense, OL and coaching are superior to Buffalo’s as well.

Does anyone here really think Belichick would have mismanaged the clock like that.

[NickelCity]

I really hated that

The punt would of been farther away from a field goal attempt

I don't know if this has been mentioned or if anyone else might've noticed but didn't it seem like Allen seemed a bit sick or something? When they first came out he didn't look right and as the game went on he really stopped looking right even before his head got bonked.

I mean look at the stat line, 9/30 131 yrds an 1 td is a bizarre stat line for any qb good or bad, and we know Josh is one of the best. Missing throws, making slower decisions, hesitant to run, I just feels off. 

Now of course I'm not saying that absolves the loss, even if he is sick or something it's still a terrible looking loss even if he didn't turn the ball over. And I'll admit I was one of the people who were happier with the wr room (except for MVS), and I've been super high on Shakir and I think rightly so, but after today... We need something more there. Who exactly? I don't know, but without shakir and cook this offense is dead in the water.

 

he looked lost all game. his eyes didn't have the same focus. he knew there was nothing for him.

 

god i already miss the days when he'd throw interceptions and >300 yards.

Total lack of talent at the Texans WR position???

Total lack of talent of the Bills WR's without Shakir.

How with them having 3TOs?

Somehow this point is being lost on those with pitchforks. How dare we choose the best option and put the ball in Allen's hands when a punt loses regardless?

[LabattBlue]

3 runs in a row, at least you make them burn all timeouts, and considering run vs pass today, the odds of getting 10 yards were much better running. 
 

 

IDIOTS!!!!!

The offense the past 2 weeks may be playing worse than the one that got Dorsey fired.

The passing game is atrocious.  Scantling, Samuel, and Hollins are averaging less than 3 yards per target.  Throws to them are wasted plays.
