Bills 2024 Thread - Misery loves company

[STEVEHOLT]

I have more faith we could win in KC than I do us beating the Ravens at home

After losing our Backup RB, you want to get our star 3rd Down back hurt in garbage time? (not an attack here)

I am fine running Johnson in garbage time. he’s the 3rd string running back And there’s only 53 guys on the roster. Gilliam also valuable on specials and there are always decisions to be made. I was reading where fans thought, Johnson, Cam Lewis and Davis were all already lost for next week. 2 of the 3 went back in the game. Just a difference of opinion, but it seems the coaches did not agree with you. If they need to elevate Gore or whoever next week then so be it. I certainly don’t think it’s any type of “coaching malpractice” as all the talking heads like to say today.

CBS really pushed the "OMG upset alert!!" angle for a while. Most 8pt spreads aren't 21-0 at the half.

So how many injuries did we pile up in this crappy annual 2v7 game that shouldn't exist - Anderson/Davis/Lewis?

 

[Eric15]

Bills -1 vs. Baltimore. Man that game is going to be a war.

 

[Orangeman]

I'm saying the coaches are being dumb 1) throwing passes with Josh Allen up 21 with 5 mins to go (he got hit like 3 times, bad) and 2) running "the league's top 3rd down RB" in garbage time...I wouldn't compare Reggie Gilliam's ST play to the game-altering plays Ty made including that 4th down TD catch but that's why this is just a message board.

Elated with the win, looking forward to next week, if either Allen or Johnson had gotten hurt there I don't know what to say

1) throwing passes with Josh Allen up 21 with 5 mins to go (he got hit like 3 times, bad)

I couldn't believe what I was seeing. Not only are you stopping the clock, but if you're throwing the ball up three scores you're basically disrespecting the defense and you're increasing the odds they'll give Josh an angry licking if given the opportunity.

I don't know why the 1st team defense was in the last drive either. Dumb.

You have your opinion I just don’t agree with it. No issues running the 3rd string running back in garbage time nor did the coaches. Not sure what’s wrong running your 3rd string running back in garbage time. If Lewis was healthy they would have run the 2nd string rb not the 3rd

He's the 2nd String RB, the 3rd String RB got hurt, played a few plays. Ty is a vital part of this offense.

Not worried about being right here, but those are the facts

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Just remembered all the idiots on Get Up claiming the bills were the most vulnerable of the favorites because of how bad a matchup Denver was

NFL coaches don’t seem to adjust their depth chart rankings mid game. The third string RB seems to get treated as such even when the back up leaves the game. It’s classic meathead brain

No it’s your opinion that your stating as fact. You don’t know if Davis is out or in next week either but he’s always 2nd on the depth chart. Gilliam is a fullback that gets 1 carry a year but sure. Thats not how it works, it’s not a video game

yeah, I am really just saying that Ty is more important than than Ray Davis (even though I LOVE Ray Davis).

The ESPN depth chart doesn't reflect it. Not worried about something that didn't happen, I guess

 

[Toga]

Projected 6:30 Sunday game. Current OP weather forecast for game is upper teens, cloudy with 10 mph winds.

 

[Toga]

Tyler Bass had a confidence building game.

 

[NineOneSeven]

Unfortunately I don’t think we win. Absolutely need some critical turnovers. Ravens D went from bad to elite this season. Just dont see how we stop their running.

Henry and Lamar running are massive concerns for next week

 

[BuffOrange]

I wonder if we can go with more base defense with Dorian. I know they don't want to take Taron off the field but how dangerous is their passing game if Flowers can't go?

 

[BuffOrange]

The Bills are favored for a reason and I think they win, but I do think Denver is being a bit underrated here. Nix has really played well the 2nd half of the season. Only Burrow threw for more touchdowns the last 8 games.

LOL

I don’t think we win but I think it’s like a 53 / 47 deal. Not 60-40 or 70-30.

It's a total toss-up. Will come down to wire.

Yup ., this is where the McDermott factor kills us

 

[SmilinBob]

Those are some pretty high scoring games and all add up to 100 for some reason.

 

[STEVEHOLT]

Because those are percentages not scores

 

[dan7800]

As a bills fan for 30+ years, I feel very confident. That obviously means they’re going to lose.
