BTW, Buffalo did NOT miss an extra point as you stated AND if the Bills didn't convert the 4th and one towards the end of the 3rd quarter, the Broncos still only have the ball at their 24 and have practically 0% chance of winning. You put it out there like this game was close and was only one play away from being a good game. It wasn't. The Bills dominated the Broncos and Denver had 0 chance of winning.

Winners got like 2 minutes of coverage, Losers got 15 minutes of nonsense talk for how it was close.

So many allen haters making themselves look so stupid over the fake apology thing, they are trying to use a play where buffalo gets royally screwed over to claim the league helps buffalo🤦‍♂️🤡🎉

[lordbudlett]

Who cares if that Ty Johnson play was called back or not. They ruled it a touchdown. Broncos scored ZERO points the entire game minus 1 drive. You think getting the ball back would have changed anything?

[ryandownes]

These guys should stop looking at the numbers and actually watch the game.

[jheartberg]

I’m sorry but so what if he is apologizing? The crew missed a really obvious call. Every decent official in every sport I’ve ever played has been willing to acknowledge mistakes to coaches or captains…

[erikreinhardt]

The bills ran the ball obsessively. I think they deliberately did not want to show anything to Baltimore, and knew they could beat Denver with a vanilla offense. They also wanted to shorten the game to get everyone out healthy, which they did. Injuries have been a serious problem for them in the divisional round. No plays for cooper or Coleman. I don’t think by accident.

The Bills were running the ball because the Denver defense is built to defend the pass, smaller, faster players, which is why they have so many sacks. They can be overpowered and Buffalos offensive line is a pretty good power blocking unit, and they bulldozed Denvers small defense, you saw that one play where they dragged multiple defenders for about 10 yards. It made the game closer than it seemed to be because it takes longer to pile up points, but they controlled the game and wore out the Broncos. The Bills also missed multiple chances to convert red zone possessions, one stolen by the missed holding call in the end zone, that made it closer longer than it should have been. The broncos pretty much just had the first drive where they hit two big passes, the Bills dominated this game.

It was mentioned how Denver outplayed their expectations. Agreed. They had a solid season beyond what anyone thought. The idea that limiting the number of possessions helped Denver would have been true if they had actually scored on the possessions they had. Denver didn't even get in Bills territory in the second half. It was only good for Denver if they could take advantage of it which they weren't able to. 31 unanswered is a but kicking. No other way to look at it. What was not mentioned is that the Bills have also exxceeded expectations by a lot. Everyone forgets that because the Bills clinched the division with 5 weeks to go. But at the beginning of the year most "experts" were talking about Buffalos' SB window is closed because they got rid of excellent player but problem child Stephon Diggs and took on over $30M in dead cap, Didn't resign Gabe Davis, who had HOF moments but was never consistant, didn't resign their very, very good but aging safety tandem of Hyde and Poyer, let very good leader and player but aging Mitch Morse go and several other things. It was supposed to the year Miami ruled the division or the Jets were supposed to because they have a 42 year old future HOF QB who is not what he was. Buffalo was generally picked to be 3rd in the division and miss the playoffs. This was the season Buffalo was supposed to take a stpe back and be able to be beat. Yet now everyone is talking like they were supposed to be in the playoffs all along. McDermot should be coach of the year and Allen should be MVP for doing so much with less. That's all right. When Allen is lifting the Lombardi as SB MVP it won't matter that he didn't get the league MVP. And McDermot won't care that he didn't get coach of the year, and Bean won't care he didn't get executive of the year. The talking heads have no consistency and very short memories.

The denver defense mugged wrs a few times. The jump ball to Coleman was absurd. The cb was wrapped around him. It was actually right in front of me. Apologies were needed

[olympusvii]

ref argument reveals the rugby fan in the room 😂 RESPECT THE SIR!!!

[mazzvidz]

Payton was worried about time of possession because he knew that Buffalo’s offense was wearing his defense down… and that played out in the second half. Once the damn broke the Bills started scoring at will.

[caseyscollection]

The whole commentary revolved around the Broncos two good plays and looking at all their mistakes with "Glass half full" mentality ??? They had 18min of possession time. Amazing how these two made a 18min. long show all about the Broncos... Are they Denver fans ??? That would make sense.

[AlucardMM]

Bills Dline & LB crew have to get the ravens off the running game early and the offense has to put them in a hole. Just like in the lions game with that quick 14-0 start. If they let the ravens play their game they stand no chance.

[T.R.]

blows my mind that JA17 has already passed Jim Kelly for postseason TDs for the Bills. i watched those K-Gun no huddle teams and they seemed like they were scoring all the time. thats a HoF QB that Josh has already surpassed and Jim was never the threat that JA17 is on scrambles and with his feet. crazy.

need to slow down on Nix. he might be a guy, nobody really knows yet though. let him string together 2+ seasons of top 20 play and then you can get excited. sophomore slump is a real thing with QBs, look at Stroud this season. yes Stroud played well finally in this latest playoff game, but he struggled mightily during the regular season. D coaches will have a full year of tape on Nix, figure out his tendencies, we'll see if he figures it out, or gets figured out. same thing with Daniels.

[maskedsausage]

Interesting, Bass never missed an extra point for Buffalo, the 6 points was 2 field goals. Maybe you were thinking of the dog shit that was the Eagles/Packers game.

Sometimes it feels like you guys mix the games you "watch" constantly which can be pretty irritating to listen to. The Bills defense locked up the Broncos by that piint, so I doubt the possible 4th and 1 turnover on downs would have amounted to much, but who knows.

[FreshlyFried]

You have to realize they aren’t watching the games. They watch scripted highlights the writers come up with. Atleast I hope that the case with how often you guys make mistakes.

[AnthonyF]

Wow, someone got it. Bang on that the Bills did their best to keep the Broncos in the game. They should have put up 17 minimum the first half. Allen had <70 yards passing the first half. This is classic McDermott not wanting his defense on the field. The back judge on the missed holding call, wasn't even watching the play (the highlight was hilarious).

[chrisjackson]

Allen through a dime on 4th and 1 accept it

[RuNzWiThDooBiEs]

5:20 Buff played like they were trying to keep Denver's offense off the field. I'd assume the same for Balitimore.
