Credit where it’s due. Bills OL is really good. They beat the shit out of the Broncos. Completely dominated the best pass rushing DL in the league
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Spencer Brown was lights out yesterday against the Broncos with several impact blocks.

Bills are physically dominant on offense but their defense just lacks that. It’s been their biggest issue for years prior and if their biggest issue this year. Won’t be a problem against teams like Denver, but Baltimore and Kansas City? i’d be shocked if Buffalo is capable of beating both. Allen would have to have the greatest run by a QB in postseason history.

Double standards for sure. MVP Lamar in 2023: 65/100 QBR "Bad" Mahomes in 2024: 68/100 QBR Patrick has to win every game and even when he does that, people still find a way to talk shit about him. It's pathetic. But you know the same thing happened for years with Brady (3 MVP's) compared to Peyton Manning (5 MVP's) and Aaron Rodgers (4 MVP's). Everyone tried to prop up the other 2 guys. But when it was all said and done? 7 rings for Brady, 2 rings for Manning, 1 ring for Rodgers. And now everybody has to admit Brady was the best, the GOAT. The hilarious thing is that Peyton Manning was absolutely carried by his defenses to win both of his rings, which is something many people have said about Brady during his career. Peyton threw 3 TD and 7 INT in the Playoff run when the Colts won the Super Bowl. His arm & neck were completely shot to hell when the phenomenal Denver defense carried him to a 2nd ring later on. |
I miss the old social media feeds from before this weekend. Everything is now rigged for the Bills because of the TD catch that was reviewed. Mobody is talking about the Chiefs.

The sharps have already bet on Baltimore enough to swing the spread in their favor, now BAL -1.
Do with that what you will. |

we’ve seen it time and time again in the playoffs with this bills team. their D line simply gets overmatched. it happened against us thrice and happened against the Bengals. yeah, they have some good players on defense. a lot, actually. but no one special. no chris jones, no roquan smith, they’re all good, not great. they’re heavily scheme reliant. |
when bills/ravens was first confirmed my gut said bills bc Lamar < JAllen but as i talk about the bills i’m starting to think this could actually be a ravens rout
that DL against the Ravens OL and Henry? unless harbaugh, monken and lamar go full tropic thunder i’m taking baltimore |
Bills will stomp dat Ravens flock.

I don't think he's a great OT, but he's a damn solid one and he plays with a nasty streak that I'm sure his QB appreciates. |

pretty sure the ref told him to not yell at him

It isn't even about the exchange itself, it's the inherent hypocrisy attached to it. |

But I have eyes. That 'hands to the chest' motion most assuredly is NOT "stop yelling at me..." Dude apologized for missing a call. It's a shit look and were it anyone but Allen (or Jackson) -- the anointed challengers of the mighty Mahomes -- it would have people up in arms. It was ridiculous. And Josh Allen thinks we're stupid. In your case, it appears he's right. |
Listen guys…far be it from me to defend Josh Allen getting dapped up by the refs. That was ridiculous that he went to the bench. Looking at what Allen could see…he was right.
Surtain was definitely holding in the endzone and it was insane that it wasn’t called. If that was us we’d all be livid. <blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">My guys in the background working the ref <a href="https://t.co/ynEn8iizIW">pic.twitter.com/ynEn8iizIW</a></p>— YardsPerPass (@YardsPerPass) <a href="https://twitter.com/YardsPerPass/status/1878916621106037211?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">January 13, 2025</a></blockquote> <script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> Speaking of..Surtain was god awful. He gave up something like 85 yards and a TD and adding this onto it? Dude got his ass kicked |
Who said it wasn't? It was OBVIOUSLY a missed hold.
Which makes this idea that the ref went to him and said "don't yell at me!" as he was giving the universal 'my bad' gesture and they proceeded to dap each other up all the more ridiculous. There's no question at all what it was. And for Allen to even try to say otherwise (or anyone in the world to believe it) is just insulting. |
That ref will probably name his next kid out of wedlock, Josh

The Bills stomped the dog piss out of the Broncos and would've done so regardless of what any ref would've said to Allen. But I'm not gonna act like he didn't go apologize to Allen for the missed call. He did. And yeah, the reaction would've been MUCH different had it happened to PM. But I think we've all seen enough NFL Films stuff to know that the chatter like that goes on all the time out there. The players all know each of these refs. They aren't strangers -- they converse. That's just a fair bit more overt than we normally see. |

Greg Jennings said refs frequently tell players sorry about missed calls during the game. Just not on the sideline. They will never go out of their way to apologize.
That was weird. And it didn’t look good. Wouldn’t be surprised if the NFL sent this ref a message telling him to not do that again. |

Yessss. Build up the moment as much as possible. Get to feeel like you are super human. Then we get to watch Pat steal your soul again, like he has the last few years, and it will be even more rewarding. It’s fun being able to see it happen in real time each year.

They’re already a top 3 productive QB-Coach combo all time. Just getting to the AFCCG for a 7th straight time is a major accomplishment. 3 Lombardis already is huge. |

But I'd be lying if I said it would be a big disappointment not to stack a couple more, at least. It's a moving target. While Buffalo's dildo yankers would kill for a single Lombardi in Allen's career, that's not how we operate. We are trying to become the greatest dynasty to ever exist and have what it takes to do so. |

11 degrees and wind chill close to 0. You’d think those conditions would affect Lamar throwing the ball.
Assuming Zay Flowers doesn’t play…why wouldn’t you flood the box and middle of field? Nobody on the outside receiver should scare the Bills |
Allen’s good playoff resume is almost exclusively wild card games. Add in the OT divisional game and people act like he’s Mahomes in the playoffs. In all but one of his playoff losses he has been average at best to bad. He’s been better than Lamar but they are closer in playoff performance than people realize. I see no clear good predictable QB performance advantage here. The Ravens with a better defense and running game gives them the victory for me.

Allen is the Tesla of QBs. Actual distance may very, considerably

Quote:
Allen and Jackson both roughly .500 playoff QB's. |
Quote:
But yeah, I think you'd still try to make the Ravens beat you with him, and focus on taking away the deep seams to the TEs, the flats to Likely, and the run game. I'm just not sure Buffalo has the horses up front to get it done. There is not much "beef" in the middle of their DL or in the second level. Even Milano is a smaller LB who can struggle to shed blocks if people get hands on him. |
Now TwoBillsDrive is talking shit about Reid and airing his dirty laundry. Pathetic fan base.

If you look at their playoff stats, it isn’t even close. Josh Allen has been significantly better than Lamar

Focusing on eliminating Henry CAN also eliminate Jackson's legs. Gotta maintain gap discipline but if you do, Jackson's not going to have the room to come forward on his scrambles. Everything is going to have to go sideways first and that takes a lot of the ceiling out of those runs. Jackson's real headaches come in two ways these days -- 1) Up the chute when he sees a quick opening in the A gap (sometimes B gap) and just bursts through the middle and now you have guys who have lost their angles almost immediately. Those are 40 yarders waiting to happen. Or 2) The scramble drill shit that he's gotten annoyingly good at. He does get sideways and backwards in ways that allow him to buy time and hit open receivers when the back end falters. If the wind takes away 2, gap discipline designed to stop Henry should bottle up 1. That leaves him with, what, speed option shit? Pft - go right ahead. I just don't know that it matters. I don't think stopping 1 is a realistic possibility for Buffalo because they just don't have the personnel to do it. I could see Baltimore doing to them what they did to Denver last week and just shoving them around the field. |
