Come on man!!

They just got a DPI and free untimed down at the one yard line.

Watch Waller with the illegal hands to the face on the play.

Sloppy game on both sides.

Bass misses 2 FG's after being perfect all year.

G-Men choke at the end of the first half

Daboll calls a play that has a run option attached to it and Tie Rod checks to the run with no time outs left.....classic

Dropped passes everywhere Diggs.Knox ect

Guys falling down when they are wide open Sherfield Davis Diggs ....full moon hang over

JA17 undefeated 5=0 on SNF

The league owed the Bills one after using them as an experiment last week

The Ravens flew to England right after last Sundays game.

Titans flew in Friday like the Bills.

Clearly the extra time to adjust is an advantage.

Just picked up this nugget from Buffalo Rumbling site

The London stat is alive and well... alarming

If you hadn’t heard this nugget about NFL teams that play in London and forego the bye the following week, have a seat. As noted in the social media post from October 10, 2023, and embedded below, “11-of-11 teams coming back from London have either been tied or trailing in the 4th QTR the following week without a bye.” And sure enough, the Bills were trailing, scoreless even (6-0), until the fourth quarter started. Let’s hope all that research the league is reportedly doing on these international games is put to good use.

The Jags handedly beat the colts, didn’t they? So maybe 11-12? Lol

Obviously as a bills fan, you wanted the game to end with the win

But that was pretty blatant. But it is what it is.

Damn, what happened to Herbert? Missing wide open receivers and late picks to end games….oh wait, that’s normal.

Lots of guys get over hyped...like Dak...he was a 4th rnd pick and its ok if he is a JAG game manager.

Even first rounders it doesn't matter if they bust with the rookie salary structure.

If your team/QB sucks bad enough get another one and try again.

The worst thing is when they flash greatness and can't string together multiple wins.

Well on to the Patriots and their bust Mac and Cheese

Only 2 x 1pm games games left on the schedule this year.....both against the Pats.

I remember when they were one of the few primetimes we got every year

My how the mighty have fallen.

What makes this more wild, is that Tua has sat for 2-3 quarters. And then this:

attempts
tua - 197
kirk - 235
stafford - 227
stroud - 213
goff - 224

If I had to pick one of those five to be my QB I would take Stroud. Five games in and he's playing like a veteran.

The Panthers have to be kicking themselves.

What is really surprising is KC8 is #2.

The poor guy is balling out this year and their defense can't stop a nose bleed.

He is the only QB on the list with a losing record.

One last thing from the Giants game on the last play.

From the Buffalo Rumblings site where they always do a fair and objective breakdown of both teams penalties.

Quoted
"Giants fans wanted a defensive pass interference call on the final play of the game. Bills fans wanted the hand to the face called. Both could have been called, but I like the no-call and not just because I’m a Bills fan. I’ve said this a few times over the years but bear with me again. Contact is NOT prohibited. The rules say it’s interference if the act “significantly hinders” the ability to make a catch. That didn’t happen."

Ok one more last thing that is really funny if your a fan of improbability.

From the Buff Rumblings site:

"According to Opta Sports it may be the ugliest win in the Super Bowl era. Opta Sports reported that the Bills are the first team to win a game with fewer rushing yards, passing yards, more interceptions thrown, more fumbles lost, and more missed field goals than their opponent. Prior to the Bills, teams with these deficits were 0-134."

It was ugly but this win needs to be cherished
