Quick hits, Buffalo Bills

Josh Allen is HIM

Ed Oliver LEGACY GAME

Tyler Bass clutched up but 😅

Defense has to get healthy

Welcome back Coleman and Kincaid!

James Cook, Ty Johnson, and Ray Davis is a hell of a trio.

#BillsMafia
Man. Josh Allen has me geeked up this morning lol. I was ready to be mad early in the game with the INTs and then he just went nuclear and I said “ ah, we have 2020 VINTAGE JA17 today, I understand now” #BillsMafia

When we look back at his career, this game tells the whole story

BUF-TB, quick hits!

Sugar high Josh is back 😬

Cole Bishop is a STUD

Run defense is horrendous

DBs aren’t getting torched in the pass game as much

Gabe Davis made an impact!

Hardman made two big plays that greatly affected the game 🥲

Ray Davis, the RETURNER

I am curious to see Gabe Davis in action. I’d expect slants, posts, RPO game, and a go ball or two. Maybe 3-5 targets? Hard to know what to expect really. #BillsMafia

Keon inactive is kind of wild. Massive shakeup at WR for the Buffalo Bills. I’m guessing Palmer, Davis, Shakir, and Moore will be the main guys. Shavers on special teams. Hardman as a returner. We’ll see though. #BillsMafia

This is encouraging, folks. Benford and Taron? That should help. Epenesa will help a ton. Shaq Thompson is full?! Start him. Dorian back to full. TJ Sanders sighting?! Worried about Kincaid and Shakir but Palmer should be back and I think we call Grape Davis up. Ready to see it. #BillsMafia

Taron might be on a backslide. I hope not but he hasn’t looked right. The backers concern me a lot. We need Shaq Thompson back asap. Bernard is playing hurt and has become a liability and Milano is in the same boat. LB looking like a need in the ‘26 draft #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 9:58 PM
I actually think the backend of the defense is playing much better. Poyer hasn’t been horrible. Bishop is starting to show a lot of promise. Hairston got burned but then bounced right back. Cam Lewis has been decent. Hopefully Benford can come back and be who we need him to be. #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 9:55 PM
Morgan Fox is going to see the field probably immediately. We’ll see what he has off the street but I’m hopeful. TJ Sanders should be back and Daquan Jones has another week to get his legs back under him. Need all the help we can get on that D line #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 9:53 PM
I’m spitballing and I’m not an OC lol but just some ideas on what we can do. Brady has to be way more adaptable an derailed in game planning because team have kind of figured him out. Let’s see how good he is #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 7:42 PM
Teams are blitzing a lot of nickel corners with sim pressures as well. It’s been effective. O line needs to be more sound on passing guys off. Too many times we have a lineman blocking no one while one side is overloaded. Keep a back in or a TE to chip and release. #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 7:41 PM
Josh has got to be better at identifying blitzes and free runners as well. If you are going to take off, tuck it and go or throw it away. Taking a lot of sacks with decent protection or a free runner not being accounted for. Gotta eliminate those #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 7:39 PM
More easy button throws for Josh. Get him in rhythm. We need to be more creative on play script as well. Running on every first down is insane. MIX IT UP. If the run game isn’t going, use the pass to set up the run. Loaded boxes and press man has been killing us #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 7:37 PM
I think there needs to be more creativity and better usage of the personnel we have. Shakir is more than a screen catcher. Moore and Samuel aren’t getting enough touches still. I’d take Gabe over Shavers and Palmer over Coleman on the field. Coleman can play Kincaid’s role while he’s out #BillsMafia
November 12, 2025 at 7:36 PM
Man. We desperately need this win Sunday #BillsMafia

I’ve been racking my brain over this offense since Sunday. Palmer will help. Maybe they activate Gabe. I’d drop Codrington and get Hardman out there for return at least. We gotta get this pass game opened up and in rhythm
November 12, 2025 at 7:31 PM
That all 22 from Sunday is a hell of a watch. #BillsMafia #yikes

Bills offense and defense player snap count vs. Miami

Notes:
👉 Hairston played full game with Benford out. IMO did a fantastic job [despite one play he got burnt by Waddle]
👉 Keon keeps getting "time on task". Turning out to be one of bigger bets by Beane and coaching staff.

Look on the bright side #BillsMafia , at least we have draft stock.

Hate to say it but I have zero confidence in Beane anymore and their scouts absolutely suck at evaluating WR’s that are coming out. Their only hit at the position in nearly a decade was Shakir and they still don’t know how to best utilize his abilities or scheme him open. #BillsMafia
