What was extra funny about that season (2019) is that the Giants and Jets didn't combine for more Meadowlands wins until week 10, when one of them was guaranteed a win because they played each other.

Ha, I didn’t realize it went that late. It’s too bad they didn’t tie.

Bills collapsing late in the 2nd. Saints just manhandling them, at home no less.

Worst quarter of the season. The playcalling is abysmal. Oline is a sieve. TE’s uninvolved and Cook doesn’t get the ball.

Agreed, I would have jammed Cook, Davis down their throats all half, wore them down. Instead, 2 out of 3 unnecessary sacks.

Agreed. Getting off script.

Winning ugly.  Not our best and win by 12.

Meanwhile, the Chargers... the media darling, lose to Jaxon Dart in his first NFL start.

 

Go Ravens. 

Spencer Brown was clearly missed.  Both of the 1st 1/2 sacks were likely due to him being out - the 1st one Jordan simply abused Van de Mark and the other one, Torrance got caught cheating too much to his right expecting to need to help Ryan and the stunt left him in no man's land.

The good news is that apparently they were close to having Brown play today so he should be in against the Cheats next week.

And, getting 31 points in a game where you were awful for an entire 1/4 without getting any particularly short fields until the very end, even against a bad team, is pretty impressive.

As for the D stinking against the run, hopefully getting Hoecht into the lineup will help with keeping RBs to get the outside.  Bosa's a great pass rusher, but he wasn't quite there on at least a couple of long Kamara runs.  And the other guy hopefully will help too.

Last week I was mildly chastised for posting that the Bills would never win a SB with this defense. I want to retract that statement because Josh and the offense can outscore any other team in the league. As Taro points out they might be the only team that can put up 31 points and look mediocre doing it. If they win one it would be in spite of the defense, not because of it.

What we’ve seen from the defense isn’t just a one game issue or a four game issue. It’s been a five year issue. Same problems even with the resources they’ve been throwing at it. Hell, an 0-3 Saints team just ran for almost 200 yards today. I’m not sure if it’s scheme, execution or personnel … or all of the above. I hope with some guys getting back it can make a difference. Time on task may help too. The Bills have the luxury of an extended seven game ‘preseason’ schedule (save the opener) to right the ship. I really hope they can.

I want to go home for a parade and I sure can’t count on the Sabres.
