I have us winning this game: was a little worried about Buffalo. But after halftime my fears were realized: Baltimore is just too banged up: Lamar is not Allen.

I agree man. Lamar is still not playing great. Bmore got a pick six and burrow threw another pick, otherwise bmore was looking at another meh offensive outing.

It took Drake Maye 11 Games to have an off game: I think Baltimore is in trouble.

Look @captain stone SUPERBOWL!!!!

Alas, we hardly knew ye!

Yep, and it was more like an off half. Like the rest of the team he was great half one. But im looking forward to see how he rebounds here

But if they see our Rush Defense with henry and lamar, they can run all over us. Ialso hate its in primetime. A day game might have lessened the pressure on the team,

All we gotta do is score no Halfs off no pun.

Yeah we need to do better against the run. But a huge part of yesterday was Allen converting important 3rd and 4th downs with his arm. Don’t see Lamar doing that so hopefully we can weather the storm.

Day game would have been much better yes or cincinatti showing up yesterday and crushing the ravens season . They are going to be amped for this one

Lol if we’re not able to hold teams to 3 or 0 in the RZ, then we simply cannot let them enter the RZ..However, that’s much easier said than done.

Well you need to do both. You need to keep teams from driving into your red zone. And when they do you need to make some stops. It’s not an either or, it’s not a philosophical thing, it’s playing good defense.

It is pretty simple. For the Pats to lose the AFC East they have to lose two of the next three and the Bills have to win out. Or the Pats lose every game the rest of the way and the Bills only lose one game. I just don't see it happening.

And if either of these scenarios do happen, I don't think it matters because I don't like the Patriots' chances in the playoffs.

Agreed but it was tongue & cheek..

Depends if the eagles get back on track. If they beat buffalo, us beating the ravens would mean we can afford to drop one of the last 2.

Looks like that hammy is healing up..

Bills ain't beating Philly in Philly. So they will not "win out".
Hoping that Lamar doesn't have his best day of the season on Sunday night.
Ravens have (2) excellent tight ends. Covering tight ends is still an issue. Probably won't get fixed this season though.
When does Williams return?

The game is in Buffalo.

Game weirdly doesn't matter a ton for playoff scenarios purposes, but I'd really like to see us come with something to prove. Come hitting hard like we did vs Giants.

Run defense rebound in a big way.

If BUF lose to PHI, doesn't winning this game help?

 

[mgteich]

I've been rooting for this transaction for many weeks (every time we needed a roster spot). However, I think that he was just used on Special Teams.

Milly, Willy & Spilly…soon..
