I mean the weaknesses we knew existed are what is biting us in the ass. Poor o-line and questionable secondary.

it’s playing out how we figured. Hopefully it improves as the season goes on but I’m surprised.

Am I missing something? Why did they not use their timeouts on prior to the qb sneak to try leave time to do something before half?

They get the ball first after the half. The best play was to just try to limit them to a field goal and go down 6-0.

I’m excited to see the tremendous halftime adjustments our excellent coaching staff will conjure up….

More likely to fumble into their own endzone then hint at any points the rate their currently going. Better to get to half, burn an effigy and hope for a different outcome in the 2nd half (lol...).

Watching the replay of that opening kickoff reminds me of another thing that grinds my gears. Kick the ball into the endzone for the touch back. Eoth our D, then starting at the 25 is a win.

Buffalo had all their timeouts and it was goal to go if they converted third and short so it didn't help Buffalo to stop the clock regardless.

The best play would have been to stop the clock, hold them to a field goal with time remaining to try and score then getting the ball right back after half. No?

Yea not surprised. Sutton isn’t very good and the D can’t stay on the field all game and be effective.

Josh Allen is a stud and we’re lucky to only be down 10-0. If the offense had any semblance of life, we could be in this one…but of course Najee looks like Conner and the O-line is trash.

You think this team drives down the field with a minute left? There’s a higher chance they just go three and out and give Buffalo plenty of time to put more points on the board.
