What is this thread? The Bills are a PASSING TEAM. Have been all year. The only GnP team that I can even think of is Tennessee.

I never said ground and pound identity teams win championships. The point is that teams need to be able to run the ball period. Buffalo hasn’t done it all year and it cost them today.

Ah, ok. I thought you were one of those "panthers north" guys who think they're just like us ... or whatever insanity they spew.

Joe Mixon just rushed 20 for 105 yards in the same game. 
 

Tell me I’m wrong with some substance. 

He was running against Buffalo’s defense. The Bengals defense tightens up in the playoffs. They did it last year too.

Nah, even the Bills haven’t outmediocred us as of late. We are our own breed.

That Buffalo defense was a shell of what it started the year with but even that being said, they were able to run the football when it counted.

My point was the Bills RBs were having trouble running against the Bengals defense. I don’t know how much CMC changes that.

My point is that they’ve had trouble with running all season. Their run game is abysmal and Allen and Diggs have bailed out their offense all year. 
 

I think CMC would change a hell of a lot but that wasn’t my main thesis for discussion.

lol damage control 

 

“ignore what happened today, the thing I want to be true is still true”

What’s not true about the Bills run game being abysmal? 
 

Reading comprehension is a lost art in this place.

    • Bryce put it in a spot only his guy could get it only for David Moore to drop it. T_T Tremble and Horn both struggled yesterday and that killed me since they're two of my favourite players. Tommy knows he has to come down with this one. Folks were understandably saying that JT would've caught that had he not gotten hurt a few plays earlier. The more I look at this play, the more I think that Bryce made the right decision throwing it out the back of the endzone. He could have tried to laser it in to Thielen, but that safety is lurking awfully close inside. Insuring the field goal here after a 44sec drive to end the half was the right move.
    • Except Bryce was the main reason we were in it 
    • NFL Pro has the All-22 up already 😄 Going to grab a play or two from each redzone series to put screenshots to. Looks like AT angled his route off to the near pylon rather than the back corner where Bryce was throwing to. I imagine this is something they'll quickly try to figure out with Thielen back from IR. After watching the All-22 again, this was actually a pretty nifty play. I thought it was a TE screen to Tremble because of the way XL charged the DB, but he quickly shed and kept upfield as seen in the second screenshot. This looks like it had multiple layers built into it with AT running the crosser, XL the fade, Tremble to the flat. The progression would call for the play to go to Chuba here as the LB does follow Tremble out into the flat. Ball hits Chuba low and in the hands, but the LB does a good job disrupting the catch.
