So maybe revisit this in 2 years and see if JA17 has more turnovers than Goff after 8 years

Goff BTW is reverting back to his old ways 8 ints and 3 fumbles the last 2 weeks....now that is a turn over machine

Yes, Goff is a turnover machine as well.

Just saying

As much as the Bills got called for holding, your offensive line got away with even more. There’s a reason why the Eagles had only one sack at home yesterday and that was why. Maybe if the Bills could actually block JA wouldn’t have so many turnovers. Bad calls/missed calls happen to every team. There’s multiple posts of you complaining about it because your team isn’t good enough to overcome them. The win wasn’t tainted at all. Bills are .500 for a reason. Like I said in my above post they have never recovered from giving up a field goal with 13 seconds left to the chiefs. I thought they’d take a step back this year but not this large of one.

Penalties were 11-4 Bills. I don't think that we got away with anything. We definitely didn't get away with two blatantly obvious PI's like Slay did.

As for the Bills record this season, I actually believe that they have played remarkably well considering the injuries that they've had on defense. Yes, every team deals with them, but when you are missing 3 starters, including an All Pro MLB, a Pro Bowl CB, and your best D-Lineman, and you take the "best team in the NFL" to OT on their home field (with their home refs)? Not to mention all of the other players who've missed games, almost exclusively on defense. I'd say we've done a good job staying in these games especially when our offense hasn't been on track until the last 2 weeks.

Probably not the smartest thing to do but those Philly fans are aweful

They Boooed Santa Claus

They have thrown batteries at players on the field

They cheered when Michael Irvin suffered a career ending neck injury on their field.

Just saying

The more you win the harder your schedule gets

Next year should be a breeze

Actually I am kidding it looks as tough as this year

Here is a preview of it with 3 Teams TBD

Definitely true. Eagles actually have the toughest strength of schedule this year since they had a Super Bowl run last year. Probably losing to the niners next week. Cowboys, chiefs and bills (last 3 games) took a lot out of them.

Your division is tough especially with rodgers coming back so that will be 4 hard games right there. I think (correct me if I’m wrong) Bills fans want a new coach and I think you will be getting one possibly. Personally I like McDermott (not saying he’s an awesome coach) because he’s from a time in Eagles football where they played crushing defense.

Unlike you, I’ll actually admit slay interfered. Just because penalties were 11-4 doesn’t mean you didn’t get away with calls too. You’re not holding the Eagles line to one sack at home unless you’re literally holding them.

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.

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.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Y’all are joking with the strength of schedule having to do with how you did the previous season? All games are already determined years in advance, minus 2 games. Those two games are determined by what place you are in the division.

Firing the coach should be the last thing the Bills do.

He is not the problem.

I could imagine he( McD) has had several calls from the league this year apologizing for horrible officiating.

Yes those calls do happen and Jim Irsay the Colts owner went public after the NFL called to apologize for 2 bad calls that cost the Colts the win against the Browns

Get it right during the game because your cheezy officiating is costing coaches their jobs.

If you win your division you play every division winner but one.

Your set schedule is 2 games against your division rivals home/away

The other set part involves inter and conference games this year was the NFCE and the AFCW with the Jags (AFCS winners) and Bucs(NFCS winners)

Next year its the NFCW and AFCS with an AFCW,NFCN and AFCN opponent to be named later based on where the Bills finish.

The Dolphins,Pats and Jets will have NFCW and AFCS plus 3 games to be named later based on standings

Ah yes, forgot about the 3rd game due to a 17 game season now. So the schedule for each division team is exactly the same, minus 3 games.
