Generic_Bills_Fan Posted Monday at 06:59 PM Share Posted Monday at 06:59 PM 4 hours ago, ChronicAndKnuckles said: Buffalo won 4 out of their last 5 games last year by one score. 6, 2, 3, and 7 points. They were literally playing for their post-season hopes and one loss could’ve stopped them. I know it’s a slightly different roster, but McDermott & Allen both proved they could win in a dog fight. Honestly, what are they supposed to do? Let Seattle run the score up so we can win by 3 instead of 21? I know he’s been pretty okay this season, but I am still petrified of putting my hopes on Tyler Bass and I think the Bills are too. I think that’s precisely why they are trying to demolish their opponent. Should’ve won that eagles game by one score too…that was an absolute screwjob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You don't see a gap between winning a playoff game after the wild card round and going for 3 consecutive Super Bowls? If anybody is questioning our ability to mop the floor with wild card or lower teams they really should get checked out by a medical professional. Further, if anybody thinks beating these teams means anything toward our ability to getting it done in the playoffs you should go see the same doctor.

RkFast Posted Monday at 08:45 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:45 PM 8 hours ago, Ray Stonada said: I do agree with the OP that our backups should get more playing time when we are up, say, 31-3 in the third quarter. Why not let those guys get some reps, and protect our starters from getting pointless injuries in garbage time? Becuase its really not "garbage time" until the other team concedes.

Doc Brown Posted Monday at 08:51 PM Share Posted Monday at 08:51 PM The OP might be onto something. In fact, just blindfold all our starters when up big. Playing football without being able to see would definitely toughen them up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always appreciate when they win but have noticed are something now like 17-3 when the lead is over 7 points while barely .500 when the point differential is less than a score. That is because we do not know how to win in close ball games, we don't know how to be tough when there is a monkey on our back, to power through the challenges, and just win. Instead of us going in there and blowing these lesser teams out we need to work our depth players in more to get them reps, work on different plays and schemes which may let the other team stay in the game. This will keep the game score closer and allow us to learn to be tough. This will give us no other option but to take a few shots to the face and still have to fight. I didn't even read the post...I just hit the agree emoticon as that was the only emoticon you had not gotten yet of the 11 options and wanted your post to have the rare perfect 11 out of 11 emoticon responses 😂 But TBH, I am reading now and I don't actually agree. I would rather the starters click and blow them out then get out of the game early and get rest and avoid injuries while the backups come in and get mop up duty. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Governor Posted Monday at 09:17 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:17 PM Why keep it close? I would like to be down 21-0 and then we’ll have a better picture. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fergie's ire Posted Monday at 09:27 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:27 PM You also have to consider that we just set a record for longest streak of games without losing by more than a touchdown. That means that, before Baltimore game, EVERY SINGLE ONE of our losses were in that group of one score games, while we had many wins that were outside the one score games. That skews things a bit. If they got blown out more often that would help that record. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Bills need to learn how to play for 60 minutes. that seems to be the biggest challenge for the team this year, and many past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jauronimo Posted Monday at 09:57 PM Share Posted Monday at 09:57 PM Manufacturing close games would be extremely dumb. And if you're gonna be dumb you GOTTA be tough. By that logic I agree. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It amazes me that folks still don’t understand how winning NFC games weakens the tiebreaker scenarios. Common, people! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
