Rapp and Hamlin’s foot speed is a problem. Both guys are heavy footed. They pop ya, especially Taylor but get lost in coverage because they can’t keep up. They were burned last night and will continue to get burned. I like that Rapp brings the lumber although it would be nice if he would stop scud missling his teammates.

You just can’t allow that kind of time to any QB, let alone one 40 years old with declining mobility. The Bills needed to rush 5 and force a throw much earlier. More bad decision making. Bass is becoming a head case. They need to find a way to send him to IR and pick up a nobody off the street. The cap situation with this guy is not good, and maybe he can come back in the spring but something is off with this dude, and you cannot rely on him at all. If he stays, decisions to go for it on 4th down must be altered. The Bass effect. The better team won. I hated the fact that he rushed 2. That gave them time to run 50 yards down field and into the end zone, and then Roger’s found his 6’5” target in front of several Bills DBs. McD is just not gonna learn I guess. Bass was good at one time, but he cannot handle pressure. Add kicker to the list of needs. . The better team prevails but the Bills have holes.

Rapp played a great game and up a touchdown and a first down throw in the 4th Q. He is ok, not great. Hamlin is below average in all facets of the game. Hyde and Poyer are missed, especially the younger versions of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know, let me give you a few other examples....you watch a college football game and the same thing happens, important play after important play, only to be reversed a few seconds later by a flag. Or, a goal called back in the nhl because of an offsides penalty, only to happen again later in the same game (you get to the point where you can't really enjoy the goal because you are thinking they are going to 'over-officiate' things and take away anything spontaneous). I was getting that feeling toward the end of the game last night because of flags against both sides, they were becoming almost as important to both teams as the result of an individual play on the field. For the viewer, fan of the Bills or Jets or just casually watching it, it took away from the game. I'm not referencing what happened a couple years ago at all, I was making a statement about last night. Not sure what you mean by "are you new here"???? Before the game ended you said “looks like a win for the Bills.” It was a fair response from Liger. McD sucks end of game situations. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not taking away anything from the 4 you thought stood out; they did. But AJ had just as big a game as those other 4 and just like if any of those other 4 aren't doing their thing the Bills lose this one; take his play out and they lose this one.

You declared the game over with over 2minutes left on the clock. That is what I am referring too. You would think a Buffalo Bills fan that lived through 13 seconds wouldn't be foolish enough to declare a one possession game over when the opponent has the ball and 3 timeouts with over two minutes left.

Yeah, but he needs to learn how to gently place the QB on the ground. Until he can do that, he’s another liability. Excuse me Mr Rodgers, would you please take a knee. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, the response....are you new here....not appropriate when my whole post was based on the penalties. You guys are spending too much time nit-picking others posts and trying to give 'cute' responses instead of actually reading and understanding the content...i guess. 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rogers said the RTP penalty when Epenesa hit him should not have been called. If you look at the replay you can see them both going down with Epenesa pawing at the ball just before they hit the ground he stops doing that and braces his weight on that arm (as he is supposed to do under the rule of not putting his weight on the QB). The officials last night were especially dreadful. Really, really, really dreadful. Angel Hernandez calling balls and strikes bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demoted Posted October 15 Report Share Posted October 15 (edited) Good win for the Bills, Jets gave them everything they had left in the tank and it still wasn't enough. Even with the refs trying to ruin the game they came out with a win. My only big problem is Bass, something needs to change.

DarthEbriate Posted October 15 Report Share Posted October 15 Raiders should've held on for a 2nd and conditional 1st. GM Rodgers would've gotten even more desperate and done it after next week. But I know how this ends. It ends exactly like last night's game. Someone else (let's call him Garrett Wilson - oh hell! it could still be Lazard) is coming open on a 15-yard crosser for the first down. But there's some pressure and Rodgers doesn't want to get hit, so he lofts a floaty backfoot jump ball to Adams. Interception. Season officially over. Except it'll be in Jersey in week 16 against the Rams instead of in the playoffs against the 49ers. Just keep blitzing the A-gap on a delay while dropping off into those slant lanes.

Demoted Posted October 15 Report Share Posted October 15 I love how they waited until the Bills beat them to make a move. Dumpster fire team thinks a 31 year old WR is going to save them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Jest had something like nine splash plays last night (plays over 20 yards). Nine. That is unsustainable and unacceptable. And it is the athletic limitation of our safeties that is mostly to blame for that. Rapp is a backup at best and Hamlin has no business even being in the league.
