I was only game to box score follow this one. So were there any negatives at all? Penalties maybe?

Yes, penalties.  Too many pre snap penalties that they can control.  You can’t blame ref judgement on pre snap penalties.  
 

But overall the Bill were impressive again.  Big road win in a tough place to play.

Dolphins and Jets losing in the final seconds didn’t hurt either😁

The AFCE was supposed to be a three team race.   The Bills are consistent.   McDermott gets a lot of heat for game day decisions, but his ability to consistently win and have his teams ready is commendable.  He does a lot more right than wrong.  Having Josh Allen really helps of course.

the allen to shakir connection is stunningly efficient

Shakir and Cook just make positive yards when it looks like there is nothing there.

Hell of a game by Coleman today. Kid looks like he is going to become a big time player.

Cook, Davis and Johnson in the backfield, Kincaid and Knox at TE, 

Shakir, Cooper, Coleman at WR

and Allen with his legs.

So many options that Defences have to try and shutdown.

The McDermott/Beane tandem is a strong pairing that has kept this team in contention for most of their tenure with the Bills. 

sidenote: I don't know if you caught the Hail Mary play in the Chicago/Washington game.

Hey John, yes the football braintrust is a good one.  
 

The Hail Mary was wild.  Another two man rush, like what the Bills did.  It’s just not good to give the opponent time to get into the end zone and set up a jump ball.  Try to kill the play and still cover deep.

I wholeheartedly agree with you that the two man rush in that scenario makes no sense. When will they learn!!!????

The Commanders are a good example of what a downtrodden franchise can do when a wretched owner is replaced with a competent owner. The former owner, Dan Snyder, was an incompetent and meddling owner who was also a despicable person.

Well three teams are racing for the basement. So there’s that.

And a far superior o-line than they have had in years.

Already 4+ games up in the division.... 8 games in ! 

 Enjoy watching Miami and Jets struggle. Now Bills get Miami in OP and the joint will be rocking. 

 Still 9 games to play and I expect some struggles at some point. Yet they have room to work things out and hopefully get healthier. 

 The depth has really shown up and hats off to the adjustments made by the coaches. 

 #17 is a gift from the Gods.

Nice try but no. Next you're going to tell me their owner drew up the Hail Mary.

Another great weekend for Buffalo sports. 

Sabres win at home vs Detroit 

Bills win in Seattle.  

A double Dub.   Two weeks in a row, so a double, Double Dub. 

UB football got destroyed but you can't win em all. Only so much karma to go around.

I think McDermott is a top-5 NFL HC when it comes to preparation. And I think he's a bottom-5 NFL HC when it comes to crucial, situational in-game decisions.

Proverbial gun to my head, I don't think I'd move on from him in favour of some shiny new OC boy genius. His consistency is remarkable. Making the playoffs always means you have a chance to win the Super Bowl. It's just a few games after all. Look at the Manning-led Giants teams.

But ... for so long as the Bills have Allen, I will feel the pull of that shiny new OC move.

it's cliche, for sure. but - outside of great QB play - line play on both sides of the ball means the most to team success. and the bills' o-line is a good one. they've had some rough patches, but they're a very good unit.

They totally outclassed the Seahawks lines on both sides of the ball.

The play that made the Hail Mary possible was the play before that. The Bears simply conceded the out pattern with no defender within 20 yards of the receiver. Just a complete brain fart by the Bears coaches.
