Ok on to Detroit....

What is this "Soft Zone" that keeps getting repeated?

 

It couldn't be a slogan that's being regurgitated could it? No, that would be nuts!

Some of us actually understand that the goal is to win the Super Bowl, not just make the playoffs. Our coach is an idiot, and he's wasting the career of the best football player to ever live, and it's infuriating.

a million percent this

Josh Allen very well might end up being the most talented QB in the history of the NFL. The fact that we can't even get this guy ONE Super Bowl appearance is so beyond damning to the coaches on this team and I fear that the proper change will never be made. This is the best chance this city will ever have and idiocy like yesterday just won't go away.

if they end up getting blasted in the divisional and no serious play is made for ben johnson you may as well resign yourself to the fact that we're stuck with the ginger

Don't care about the win or loss. Just don't want the lions or Rapp to injure anyone. The lions hit hard, dirty, and to the whistle.

I'm scared of their carpet too; that thing is an unforgiving mess.

It's new carpet. They changed it before '23. I linked it somewhere else to DrD.

Thanks, I didn't realize that.

Maybe it even matches the drapes now.

Just curious where you see the Bills matching up well with Detroit. Detroit has the advantage at O line vs our D line, at RB vs our LBs, at WR vs our Safeties. Not trying to call you out specifically but just trying to get a sense of why people think this might be a close game...at all.

 

Yes...but no.

Take away the punt block and we win that one.

This is going to be an asskicking. LOL The Bills defense is soft and got exposed, and the Lions are going to destroy us. Get a big strong run Dman and a great pass rusher!!! Offseason wish list!! 

I have no faith in Sean's soft zone scheme. I have no faith in anyone on this roster getting to the qb. And I expect McD to continue to fail in drafting an elite pass rusher.

If Pegula is comfortable with regular season continuity, then he'll never replace McD. Even if he knows in his heart that 90% of the success of this organization is because of Josh.

They probably won’t but Stafford got forced into fitting throws into some pretty tight windows with 0 pass rush  to stay in that shootout and he hit them all.  I don’t think Goff is gonna be able to do that as successfully and will probably turn it over. 
 

Jameson Williams and St Brown are great but I’d bet against them playing as well as Kupp/Nacua did yesterday.  Should be another close game

10-4 at season opener most would take it. 3-0, most wouldn’t take 3-2. At 10-2 most wouldn’t accept 10-4. Time to win or go home. Prove you can play with the beast of the West in an unfriendly environment or pack this season in. This team ain’t going to Burrowhead and winning if they can win in the friendly confines of Ford field. Luckily Milano, Rasul and Taron are playing their best ball. Lions better watch out. 

Is this a joke and I’m missing it? They’ve been bad.

It's funny to see the change in tone around here in 24 hours. 
 

I think it's a good thing that the Rams and ravens exposed the rush, D. Although there isn't a lot of time, hopefully they can make some micro adjustments.

Detroit's offense could curb stomp the Bills defense next week. Two-week McDermott swoons are nothing new. Usually it involves a defense unable to stop the run. Let's see if they make miraculous adjustments to their otherwise predictable defensive approach. 

Detroit will curb stomp our D. No chance our D stops them.

Ravens exposed the the Run Defense and LBs. Rams exposed the Pass Defense and the DEs and CBs (inability to pressure without extra players: DBs unable to play man to man). 

 

That said: How many teams in the NFL have two WRs that are near Nacua's and Kupp's level? Eagles? Bengals? Vikings? Dolphins maybe?

This could get ugly on a biblical scale.

The Bills D scheme is now unmasked in the league.  On TV they said "blood in the water for the Bills now"  the scheme will have to be tweeked, and need better players.  and, Milano looks a step slow out there to me, I don't want to see that, but I do.

[BananaB]

I expect the same type of gameplan against Detroit on D. Gonna be another rough day

I understand it's frustrating but I think they have a great chance this year.
