The boring fundamentals of McDermott will beat McDaniels' razzle-dazzle every time*

Only if Miami loses 45-6.
I predict the Bills will win 45-6

I would like to see Lindy play his real team for the first period every preseason game. They typically focus on the bubble players instead of getting the team ready to play.

The psychology of fandom is fascinating stuff.
Im curious to see the Venn diagram of people who credit luck in both last-minute wins and last-minute losses.
I read an AP article the day after the game and the focus wasn't so much how the Bills snatched victory from the jaws of defeat as it was the Raven just plain gave it away.
We've seen the Bills give it away too many times. It doesn't bother me at all that they were on the other side of one of those games for a change.

Or how about if the last two point conversion actually works? Baltimore gets the ball with around 2 minutes left in a tie game, only needing a field goal to win. The whole thing is just a perfect (and lucky) sequence of events that resulted in the perfect ending.
Oh yeah, all the "alternate universe" scenarios are mind numbing.
We should just take the W and never speak of this game again.

The 'Battered Bills Fan' in me was glad that Coleman got tripped up at the end. The Bills would have had to make the 2-point conversion then kick off to the Ravens putting the ball back in Lamar's hands with however many seconds remained and all (?) their timeouts. Feels like we've been down that road before and it didn't end well.
It worked out, but in an alternate universe where McClappy leaves the first extra point on the board and doesn't go for two, and continues to kick the PATs, the Bills would have been at 41 points without the field goal. But then the Bills would be in the opposite situation toward the end: Up by less than a field goal and in a position to kill the clock. Changes the dynamic of the game. It all worked out, but I thought that was awful game management to keep doubling down (literally) and going for the two-pointers.
If they just moved on after the first unconverted 2-point attempt and kicked PATs thereafter, they would have been tied at the end and each team would be driving for a game winning FG. What happens then?
I mean, we got the desired result, but if the Bills coaching staff had made "better" decisions after touchdowns they might have lost. They won by playing wrong.

The winning field goal setup was terrifying. And exquisite.
TCU did something like that a couple years ago.
Considering this is the first game of the season, I wouldn't be surprised if this was a drill they ran in preseason and was still relatively fresh on everyone's minds, so *they* knew what they were doing but no one else (fans, broadcasters) did. After mismanaging much of the game to that point (3 failed 2 point conversions in particular), I felt that the coaching was perfect at the end.

Went to bed thinking they had lost. What a happy surprise!
Never sleep on the Bills.
(I was watching at the Bills Backers bar here and if I had a better waiter I would have missed it too. I was going to call for my check but he didn't come around for a while and that got me to stay until things got interesting at the end.)

I'm a casual Bills fan and not nearly as invested as Bills Mafia. I think this is an exaggeration. Allen is a really good QB but still nowhere near the level of one of the greatest of all time. Top 5 in the league right now for sure... likely top 3. All time he's not top 25.
Here's one for you: Josh Allen holds the record for the most total touchdowns (passing + rushing) in a player's first eight seasons, with 262 touchdowns through his first eight years in the NFL. Last night's game was the first game of his 8th season, and he already held the record before kickoff.

I am a Blue and Gold diehard, but I have to admit, I certainly don't mind the Black and Red as much as I used to. About a third of the home games are Black and Red, that's fine.

Checking... Next time I'm in Buffalo, the Sabres have an away game in Boston. 😞

Not sure why Albany didn't draw better. Their college team, ever since the Thompsons played there, has been solid to great and it really seemed like the area was going to become a hotbed.
The team has been entertaining too. Built a bit like the Sabres with a lot of offense and youth and not much idea of what to do on their own side of the restraining line. But unlike the Sabres, they had a nice playoff run 2 years ago. Too bad. Wonder if they'll get another crack at a franchise again. Could see it happening but wouldn't have money on it.
I went to college in the Albany area. I think part of the problem is that the Capital District is kind of spread out in a tri-city area (Albany-Schenectady-Troy), and there is competition from Siena basketball and Union and RPI hockey, plus local fans are rooting for Boston and NYC NBA/NHL teams. I don't think the local population "needs" another sport to support.
I get the sense that NLL exploded in popularity in Buffalo because the Bandits brought championships and the Sabres have sucked ass for so long.

Haha. We had NLL in Fort Worth (Panther City Lacrosse Club). In their last year they drew 2700 per game. When they left the league no one even tried to buy the team; they folded.

Maybe the Hockey Putz got Reaugh and Ray confused? They both answer to the nickname Rayzor afterall.
Little chance of that. His rooting priorities are Vancouver, Boston and Dallas, so I don't think he'd confuse Daryl Reaugh with Rob Ray.

Interesting view from the outside, The Hockey Guy on YouTube is of the opinion that Rob Ray is the best color guy in the NHL.
I would say Detroit's Mickey Redmond was one of the best but as he's gotten older he's lost a step and his knowledge of the game is more and more dated.
The other one I like quite a bit is Daryl Reaugh for the Stars.

McDaniels offenses are all flash and no fundamentals. McDermott's defenses are so fundamental they're boring. But the fundamentals win out every time.
