Wrong. You can't just change an entire, or even most of an offensive line but you can replace one guy who has no elusiveness.

One legit gripe is on the Bills last drive, Andrew Brown had Allen wrapped up and the Tackle had Brown wrapped up and tackled him. Should have been a holding penalty.

So just play Dalton until the o-line is good?  The o-line has been priority one for 5 years and it's only gotten worse.  I will admit I can see Mike Brown giving Dalton a 4 year extension and saying "We may as well keep Andy here because the o-line isn't going to be good."

Actually, if we are trying to fix the o-line and the QB is just secondary to all that, wouldn't we want to have a QB on a rookie deal so we could *snicker* use the freed up cap space to invest in the o-line?

There were many of these non-calls throughout the game.  Brown literally got taken down and tackled on a Pass - Refs didn't even bat an eye

I don't know if I call 19 carries for 67 yards 'showing the ability to run the ball.'

The team looked better on defense in the 2nd half...but couldn't stop Buffalo when they needed to.

[Timanky12]

this team is years away from competing. They need offensive lineman and linebackers who can in their gap and tackle. How many times did they the the Qb escape. Andy must be 3 ft tall, he constantly gets balls batted down at the line of scrimmage. He panics when pressure is put on, I’m tired of watching this same performance over and over again. It’s now time to move on from Andy and put Finley in. Start planning for n XX year, don’t waste another minute tryout no to make Andy a pro bowl Qb, it’s not going to happen. He’s been average except for 1 year, and average Qb’s don’t go to the super bowl.

The Bills without their primary back...had 175 yards rushing against us.

I'm concerned that Katie is just Mike Brown in a wig with a loudmouthed husband (she has the husband, the wig doesn't have a husband).

First of all, Tate was open. It was a high throw behind him that he had to jump and reach back for. 

It was an atriocious throw, for being that short and having the receiver open.

Loser talk. Same kind of mentality that kept Marvin our HC for 16 years.

Yes - To me that's a legit gripe. But, they should have still sacked Allen. We only had 1 sack.

I assure you that I'm also rooting for the Patriots to win a 7th SB and stick it to those smug Steeler fans.

The most important position is window dressing?

Some of you are too much...

Yep - We lack playmakers on defense in a huge way. At all levels.

On offense, the line is bad...and we obviously don't have an elite QB.

Doesnt matter 2 hand tip is a catchable ball. Bad throw yea but 2 hands is catchable.


0 points 0 first downs in the first half lost thr football game.

I saw the play and agree - Legit Gripe- so was the other one, Dude had Andrew Brown in a headlock, took him down and Allen threw for a first down. 

[PDub80]

The defense was on the field an insane amount of time the first half. At one point TOP was 4mins Bengals vs 18mins for the Bills. And the D still held them to 1 TD and 2 FGs despite 2 Bengals turnovers in the first half.

They needed to get the stop at the end, but the offense was so bad for most of the game, I think the D did great considering how the game.unfolded.

I guess these people left the room every time Allen made big plays under pressure...

You’d think every other team has 5 all pros across their OL the way some here act
