What Bills fans are saying

[Ram65]

When your team is 2-0 and hasn't won much in recent years you should be a little high on them. They have some good offensive weapons. Should be
a very competitive game. Both teams will get some answers to questions when this is over.

The Bills are a damn near mirror image of the Rams, lol. They love their underrated QB just as much as we do.

You don’t attack Aaron Donald.
Aaron Donald attacks YOU.

I sort of feel the same.

Josh Allen will probably kick our ass based on what I am about to say... He seems to be improving, so maybe my perspective will be changing... but when I see him play I see opportunity to get after him and force some errors.

I'd like to see an aggressive plan on defense to attack their longer pass plays.

I too want to stop all of the long pass plays and be ready to see them as we have'nt so far and stop his running out the back door with quality contain would thrill me if we get no cheap calls for hitting Josh in front of his family.

Where the Bills may be able to break through is over the LG where starter Joe Noteboom is out and replaced by 2nd year player David Edwards. I’ve gushed over Aaron Donald as he will be far and away the best DL on the field Sunday, but is it possible that this week Ed Oliver could take advantage of a weakened OL and be more disruptive?

Obviously this guy hasn't been paying attention. Noteboom was the weak link of the line. We're likely gonna be better with Edwards there.

Sloman has accuracy and consistency issues. He's short kicked a KO which was returned almost to midfield (Rams saved by a penalty) and missed an extra point which should never happen. He's missed a kick in both games. Greg's accuracy has taken a hit after his injury and it cost him his job. So why does Sloman keep getting a pass? I'm sure I'm not alone holding my breath every time he walks out there for a FG.

You keep droning on about short kickoffs, and it is stupid. You realize, that a strategy that every team uses at least some of the time, is the high kickoff to the 1 or 2 yard line, right? Yet, you keep acting like he was trying to kick it out of the endzone, but didn't have either the leg or consistency to do it. It is quite an assumption on your part.

I guess that there is a chance that is what happened, but I think it is far more likely that the high short kickoff was the plan on that one. It just kind of sounds dumb. He certainly has the leg to kick it out of the endzone, as we have seen it several times.

Trust me, we get it, you don't like him as our kicker.

What a finish! The PI penalty was Patriot level but I'll take it. Let's go Buffalo!

_____________________________________

I didn’t agree with the call that gave the Bills’ a first down. If I were a Rams fan, I’d be very unhappy.

However, we have seen the Bills on the opposite side of that equation too many times in the past ~25 or so years.

The Bills put themselves in a position to benefit from the questionable call. Awesome

That DPI was not a good call, imo. Contact by both players. But I'd rather be happy than right.

GO BILLS

love how the Rams board is mad about the last defensive holding on Gabe. They are complaining but seriously the terrible INT call completely changed the game.

Refs screwed us the interception ( which should not go against Allen)

Made up for it on the interception.

last guy is right though... the PI was questionable.. but the INT call was worse.

The int was reviewed and within the middle of the game.
A bad call. Thats all. Bad calls occur every game.

The dpi was on 4th and long FOR THE GAME. Thats not only a bad call, it's the game decision. And the throw wasn't going to be completed regardless. Williams had every right to be where he was make contact. If the receiver wants to run through him, that's not dpi.

Both were bad, but gifting a team a 1st down there after they blew it on 4th down was far more unforgivable imo.

I 100% agree but if the rams had made a stop earlier or decided to play better a little sooner it could of been avoided. It sucks but we have been on the better ends of those calls recently

The 2018 Saints agree with you.

I keep seeing this. Its nonsense.

If the INT isn't called the end result of the game is
a)
b)
c)
...
y)
z)


If the DPI isn't called the end result is
a) Rams win

You could say similar things about the Dallas game. We benefited that game from the questionable PI call and were disadvantaged by a blown call on an Int. The reverse happened to us this week. Such is life. This game proved to me that this is a much better team than the one we had last year, and that's what matters the most to me. We have a running game, we have an OL, and Jared Goff looks like the 2018 version of himself (the one from the first 11 games). We had none of that last year.

 

[badnews]

The 2018 Saints agree with you.

And we didn't really disagree with them, either, did we? We knew it was a shit call.

Like I said, they were both bad calls and there were other bad calls and non calls, but none of them were for the outcome.

We've had enough go our way in recent years that I don't feel its unfair or unbelievable.... just unjustifiable in that moment and extremely unfortunate.

Difference is most of us acknowledge that there were many missed calls that game, some for us and some against us. Most Aints fans only think there was one missed call and it screwed them. When in reality if those missed calls are made it's a different game and they likely aren't close in the 4th quarter.

 

[NoCoNite]

We wouldn’t be having this convo if they stopped them on 3rd and 20. They should of just gave them 7 points after that.

Yeah I with you - it's just that you were claiming that it was worse because it was at the end of the game. I remember Big Whit (I believe it was on Rich Eisen's show) arguing that when the calls occur it doesnt matter, he referenced the face mask on Goff that wasn't called and a couple others. His point being that Saints fans were whining hard because that call was worse because it at the end... but Whit was arguing that all calls equally affect the outcome, regardless of when they occur.

I'm not saying I disagree with you about it being worse at the end - but there is some strong logic to conclude that it doesn't matter when they occur.

 

[Ellard80]

Also... honestly. I was livid at first - then when I watched the replay a couple times: Williams grabbed him after 5 yards. I thought it was a penalty - at the least illegal contact or def holding.

Oh yeah I remember Whitworth saying that and I am sure I was quick to agree then. Although the infamous non-call didn’t end the game for the Saints. It could have. But instead there was more game, an overtime int and a rams win.

Calls in the final seconds need to be good if they are going to take victory away.

 

[GoodBadUgly]

last guy is right though... the PI was questionable.. but the INT call was worse.

How can anyone say this with a straight face (that isn't a Bills fan)?

INT Reversed: After the OPI is enforced, Bills end up punting. Rams get it with 10-15 yards difference in field position.
DPI Reversed or not called: Rams win.

One call was 10-15 yard difference, one took an historic Rams comeback (and a 3-0) start out of the record books. Hmmm, I wonder which was worse?
