Actually, Josh is the least sacked QB in the league, so it's not that hard to believe.

Injuries are part of the game. You still had your top tier qb. Eagles were missing their future HOF right tackle (google the eagles record without lane Johnson), solid TE in Dallas goeddert and their linebacker left the game in which the Bills IMMEDIATELY and smartly picked on his backup either running it his way or passing his way. The difference is the Eagles found a way to win the game.

Oh, that reminded me...we're also missing Dawson Knox who is one of JA17's prime red zone targets. But you are right. the Eagles found a way to win...or more accurately, the Bills found another way to lose.

By the way, you can Fact check this stat if you like but the Bills lead the league in penalty’s. Thats why it was 11-4. That’s a sign that your coaching staff needs to do a better job. If I am remembering all the Eagles games correctly your team is the only one to jump on a tush push play and give them the first down.

Yes, the Bills do lead the league in total penalties. But interestingly, in every other game the Bills have not had more than 4 more penalties than their opponents. And in 5 of their previous games their opponents have had more penalties than they did. So that's what makes this game that much more of an outlier.

Prior to yesterday teams were 39-0 when racking up over 500 yards of offense, converting 10+ third downs and winning the turnover battle. The Bills made that 39-1. That’s what happens when you shoot yourself in the foot so much.

Let's just agree to disagree on exactly who was shooting who in the foot.

JA played a great game. I don’t blame the pick on him (Bradberry just made a heck of a play).

Yes, he did. As did Hurts. It was every bit the battle it should have been. The unfortunate part for the Bills is that there are 4 games (Jets, Jags, Pats and Broncos) that they should never have lost. This loss would have been slightly easier to take at 10-2 than it is at 6-6.
