It's still entirely Josh Allen

[Eastport bills]

Of course it can’t be done without Josh, but the O-line, the 3 RBs, the TEs made a lot of plays. Brady called a great game and our defense were decimated in the secondary.  Oliver was huge and we made just enough stops. Our defense will get better but good luck stopping this offense.

Well we better keep that tape because it wouldn't surprise me if we face each in Feb.  

 

i expect to lose to them in February if so. Just as the Bills lost to the Giants in 1990 and the undefeated Pats lost to the Giants in 2007. Both games were rematches were the regular season winner lost. 
 

bet the house on the lions if it happens.

[Wraith]

This thread is completely irrational to me. The Bills defense had the Lions down 35-14 with three minutes left in the 3rd quarter before they shifted into an admittedly mediocre prevent defense the rest of the game while up multiple scores and playing their second and third string defensive backs. The Lions have the best offense in the league by a mile. Also keep in mind the Lions had a ridiculous amount of possessions because the Bills offense was scoring too fast to chew the clock. A lot of you are projecting your feelings from the Rams game. This was not a replay of that game defensively.

This defensive scheme is ****.  It's got to be changed somewhat going into the playoffs.  We can't keep giving up 35+ points a game to good offenses 

The defensive scheme starting at halftime in the rams game through a lot of this game seemed markedly different to me.

The game was in doubt until the onside kick recovery.

This, is undisputable. That is not the same as it being "entirely Josh Allen." 

Does “switch QBs and the Bills lose by 100” count as the same as “entirely Josh Allen?”

While I agree didn't like Babich's playcalling so much from there... being down to a fella who has been on the PS all year at safety and a guy who we know can't cover at linebacker by the 4th quartet didn't help.

It gave up well over 400 yards and 5 passing TD's.  Not good.

I don’t understand this for the game today.  We did slow them down in the first half with 3 of 4 DBs out.  In the second half they rolled and then we were missing Milano and Williams.  Both offenses are great at any time, but when playing two injury riddled ads it would be more surprising if the offenses hadn’t gone nuts.

Ya, he got some help in being great today, it doesn’t always go like that. Knox had that huge catch. Cook a long TD run was very impressive. Ty Johnson made several very nice plays. Then we delivered elsewhere. Ed was great today as well, taking over the game.

What is your definition of in doubt lol we had probably a 99+% win percentage from the mid 4th quarter on

Edit: espn tracks this and it was 98% or higher from 7 minutes left in the 4th to the end of the game. Even if they recovered the onside kick there was plenty of work left to do.  Love the eye roll though 😂

Of course that's the case for the Bills.

 

The reason? 

 

Because they don't have another HoF worthy player right now that can pick up the team on his shoulders.

 

I keep reminding people the Chiefs have Chris Jones on Defense in case Mahomes has a rare off day, and Travis Kelce to make Mahome's life easy (maybe not much this year).

I agree with you!

[Don Otreply]

Okay, I’ll eat some crow, the D was very good in the first half, losing key guys in the middle of our defense really hurt, so I admit to being an asz…

 

GO BILLS!!!

[Success]

I mean, what was the margin of error for Allen today?

 

That was as perfect a game as I've seen from a QB in years - probably since the Pats playoff game.  It came down to an onside kick.

 

[Nelius]

James Cook is a top 5 back that seems to only be getting better and yet he still somehow feels underrated. Here and everywhere.

Why, oh why - do we need him to put on the cape every single game?

 

C'mon, coaches. Step UP.

 

 

Both of the Bills co-ordinators were aggressively innovative today against the best competition in the world.

I have no idea what some folks were watching.

[Danger Mouse]

I'd rather win a game conceding 500 pass yards than lose one conceding half that

Negative posters are frustrated because their field day they had post rams game isn’t 100% accurate and we now have the two best quality wins in the league imo

It's "they still had a legit chance w/ a few seconds to go."
