My overall point is the ravens outplayed them, and it took 3 turnovers to win the game by 2 points , and from a drop by Andrews.

I'm as thrilled as anyone with the win.

But Im getting crucified for saying the ravens were the better team lol- I thought pretty objectively they were as the yards were like 420 to 270.

They made a few massive mistakes. Bills did enough to hang on which is fantastic.

Now onto KC 

 

The Bills punched them in the mouth in the first half. They thought they would come in and out physical us but they got dominated on both sides of the line of scrimmage.

Whatever.

 

The Bills coaching staff became way too conservative on both sides of the ball in the second half. I was very surprised by that. I hope they learned their lesson because the Bills should have won this game by at least 2 scores.

 

 

I don't think you can say they "became conservative."  They threw the ball more than twice as much in the second half than the first half.  I would say that most of those throws came in the fourth quarter and my complaint would be that the coaching staff was slow to counter Baltimore's adjustments.  I get it since they had the lead and their plan had been working, but would be good to recognize Baltimore's adjustment sooner.

The Ravens led for under 6 minutes in the first quarter and then never led again. You can't control the game when you are behind for 90% of it.

The Ravens won the stats bowl like they have done all year.  I bet all those empty yards are feeling real good this morning.  And look at the QBR!!  Give that man his MVP!

Yes, the result matters. Would anyone say that the Bills outplayed the Chiefs in the 13 second game?

Two completely different games. 13 seconds was a back and forth even game.

 

Yesterday Baltimore dominated every category except turnovers- Which was the difference. Credit to the bills for making those plays for sure, not denying that

Semantics, you know what I mean. 416 yards to 273 Baltimore out gained them

If you came out of this game saying the bills were the better team and turnovers weren't the deciding factor, I don't know what to tell ya.

Im not complaining as im thrilled with the win. But let's call a spade a spade here

How many times have we seen Patriot and Chiefs teams win games like this where they just play complimentary football and wait for the other team to make a mistake?

That's literally my point and I even referenced KC as an example earlier .
 

I'm taking nothing away from the bills as they got a massive W and they didn't shoot themselves in the foot. And let's be honest, finally got a little bit of a break .

 

All I'm saying is Baltimore for the majority of the game, was the Better team. They out gained them by 140 yards ... lol. What I'm saying here gentleman is not a hot take .

 

I could also careless that Baltimore was the better team, cause at the end of the day getting the win is all that matters

The Bills controlled the game. Baltimore led for under 6 minutes early in the first quarter and then never led again the entire game and were never even tied after the Bills went up 14-7.

 

We have a difference in our definition on who was the better team then.

 

If you look at it at the lens of- The bills didn't make mistakes and made 3 massive plays. Fair.

 

I look at it as there are around 120 plays in the football game. Baltimore was better in the vast majority of those plays.  The difference was 3 the big plays.

 

Do you at least agree with that assessment?^

Yes, but those 3 plays were far more important in terms of deciding who was going to win and lose than the other 117 plays were.

Fair- so we are in agreement with that then.

 

We just disagree with the "definition of", who played better 

 

Anyways, thrilled with the W. We can definitely agree on that and go Bills

The talking heads "Lamar is trying to do too much" and excuses are pouring in today. The cleaner QB flat out won due to not turning the Ball over. 

 

I really wish our normal 2nd half O showed up yesterday and absolutely buried the Ravens. Happy as hell for the W, please don't get me wrong. Just tired of excuses for a team with 9 pro bowlers and talent overall.
