Another bad performance by the rams offense when not facing the Bills defense. That’s 4 in a row. If we get Cincy round 1, we done

Six percent chance of playing the Bengals per whoever calculates that stuff.

That’s fine by me. I hope people don’t take my lack of trust in the team as a sign of being less of a fan. I just don’t think they are as good as their record and dare I say their point differential suggests. I think they have been extremely fortunate on the turnover side which has not only turned some losses into wins but also greatly increased the win margins to a point the differentials aren’t as accurate a reflection of strength as they usually are
 
I know most Bills fans won’t agree, but Cinncinati and Buffalo would be the best matchup round one for the NFL. It might end up being the highest over/under in league history.

Things aren't trending in the right direction. Including the Ravens defense looking like a Baltimore defense the last 6-7 weeks. I didn't think Hollywood would help the Chiefs not having any reps with Mahomes but apparently he is.

Maybe the Chargers can take out the Ravens if playoff Lamar shows up so we get the Pitt-Hou fraud winner; we're ridiculously overdue for a break.
 
Wow the Sunday lineup of games was really decimated with the Christmas and Saturday games if this is the best game they can send Nantz and Romo to today,
 
So I can’t watch live but I’m following on game cast. Seems that the penalties would make this unwatchable . Is that how it looks
?

Yes, it hasn't been the most fun to watch. Not much flow.
 
A-a-Ron stared that dude down for an hour. Just a bit late, Jim.

Yes Fox had the big national game with Minnesota/Green Bay game. not many options on CBS.
 
This was the least impressive blow out I have ever seen. Hall ran all over the defense and Allen got bailed out by incredible catches and dumb Jets penalties. This was the Orange blowing out Bucknell. I don’t think any of this translates to the playoffs where the opposition won’t continuously hand the ball over. Any team with a decent running game is going to destroy this defense.

It would absolutely be a great matchup for neutrals. As a Bills fan I think the Bills would win

I am concerned about the defense as anyone but Hall had 45 yards on 10 carries. Not exactly an impressive stat line. The defense overall definitely still leaves a lot to be desired and is a major concern going into the playoffs. The Dline and Safety spot especially.

a Syracuse bucknell match up does not exist in the NFL.

That’s because he only carried it 10 times… The Jets are dumb because they let Rodgers pass too much which got them in a hole and at that point the run game went out the window. Hall had a number of explosive plays in his few touches and I have no doubts he would have had more if he had gotten the ball more.

I’m also concerned about the LBs as the Jets receivers seemed to find a lot of space in the middle of the field.

The bills defense has a ton of issues and will certainly be an issue in the playoffs but using the results yesterday’s game to justify the issues ain’t it. They gave up zero points with their “starters” in.

the jets are a bad team the bills blew them out. It was 40-0 when they decided to just sub everyone. And yes, playoff teams with better offenses will present much bigger problems. Who knew?

Our playoff fate will be determined by our offense. If the D does anything beyond mediocre it is a huge plus
