Finally you give us an example of your claim. Let’s discuss the singular play you mention. On this play, Allen had ONE underneath option. It was James Cook, for a 3 yard pass. And Cook would have been cracked by two incoming LB’s. Thats what you are criticizing Allen over? Not throwing a 3 yard pass to Cook?

All this because a Puerto Rican is performing. And people like @JDHillFan STILL think it’s not just pure, undisputed racism. Anyone who watches this TPUSA garbage should be shamed and mocked mercilessly

Good incentive to get the ICE agents to quit ICE is anti-American you dullard. Unless you somehow think illegally detaining American citizens during a night raid on an apartment building was what the Founding Fathers intended

here this is the play you're talking about from the top of his drop before he decides not to throw Cook into an oven and tucks it please tell me what the options are here

lulz

Personally I feel that the offensive playcalling was the main issue. Refusing to attack the middle of the field with our 3 TE's consistently, and instead attacking their strength (CB) with our weakest unit. To line up in Jumbo and only pass twice is criminal against their linebackers in coverage.

My opinion may not be popular but I don't think Josh is at his best when he's planted in the pocket scanning the field for options 2 & 3. That's a Joe Burrow thing, or even Mahomes, Goff, etc. I think Josh is at his best when he's moving around, rolling out, running for 7 yards and getting out of bounds, etc... He's definitely gotten better at standing in the pocket and throwing some accurate passes. Sometimes the WR's are working in unison with Josh as he's scrambling around trying to make a play and they get more open... thats when the special happens. I also feel like he takes some shots from defenders while hanging in the pocket, they love to whip Allen to the ground when they get ahold of him. They enjoy roughing him up.

These are officers of the law fulfilling their duties. They have been shot at, spit upon, punched and kicked, and have had foreign objects hurled at them, why expose their families to these actions?

Yup to all, but they need more than just Hairston, been saying that since the draft. They have to get some decent/good players for backups, depth. Or Tre White, who should never play for the Bills again, will soon be out there again. Cannot happen. If White cannot play the position effectively--and he cannot--then he cannot be a backup either. Bills need to get much much more diligent now in their pursuit of corners. It is shocking that Beane has not made any moves lately on this vital, completely undermanned position. And I am a Beane supporter. The Bills are not contenders now, and won't be until they get several good corners--anyway they can get them.

There is a rumor that both Falcon’s fans living in Atlanta will be in attendance. That could sway things. Yes, the Falcons could win, but it won’t be due to the huge home field advantage.

Oddly though he was - IIRC - absolutely ELITE at that in college.

Wow, you took that in an unexpected, cruel and completely unhinged direction. I’ve been trying to follow the updates on the fire, and all I can find so far is that officials are urging patience while they sort through evidence and statements, and that they do not believe arson was the cause of the fire. You’ve characterized it as an “attack” on a judge, and wondered if the fire was the result of “terrorism”. What are you seeing that has you leaning that way? Oh—just to clarify, if you hear officials are looking closely as a “Mr. Coffee”, admittedly that can be a little confusing for some liberal voters. Read up on that one a bit before jumping to conclusions.

Traditional Catholic... 😉

Joe Marino brought up some good stats on today's Locked On Bills. The essence of it was that Penix is the worst QB in the NFL this year on throws 10+ yards downfield. Joe's point was that you have to make him prove he can beat you like that. This is not the week to play conservative and cede the run like we do so frequently. Stack the box, shut down Bijan as much as possible, and force them to beat you through the weakest aspect of their offense. If they can do that you tip your cap and move on. If they beat you with Bijan and quick short passes, your defensive gameplan was a failure.

I dont disagree with you for a second about nothing being open down field. But there are instances where he could have taken short or underneath routes to setup 2nd or 3rd and manageable. Their second to last offensive play he had options. I am not saying he was awful, I am just saying in multiple instances he came off of open routes to try and force longer throws. Yes because stats always tell a complete and accurate story of sports. The irony of you making an inference about someone's mental acuity without understanding what really happened during the game should not be lost on anyone. I dont think anyone is saying Josh was horrible, but he was not as good as the stats show.

Yes, that was a bad throw, and worse it killed a good scoring drive. It happens. Not everything goes your way. I think we all believe that Josh Allen will bounce back from it.

I think it’s hard to complain about the Bills O given its productivity even if many of us feel that the “everybody eats” approach is perhaps not optimal in making the best use of the superstar QB. On the other hand there is nothing necessarily wrong with this approach philosophically assuming of course that you have the players buy in and execute. Just look at the Blue Jays who, playing little ball, just disposed of the Yankees. They’ve got only one superstar on that team. The Bills actually have two. Im not necessarily down on McD’s defensive philosophy either. It makes a lot of sense IMO, assuming again you have the players to execute it properly. It can, and has worked extremely well in the past notably in Carolina. But of course in Carolina he had a strong pass rush from his four down linemen. And while Milano when healthy has been great, and is absolutely, like Bernard, a McD LB prototype, I dont think our linebackers compare very well either with HOFer LK, a young Shaq Thompson and Thomas Davis. My main criticisms of Sean have more to do with his in-game management, some of which has been downright unaccountable. . Not making excuses but lots of HCs get called out for it. Reid did in Philly. IMO McD is a good coach with a good understanding of what can work but If he doesnt lead us to the big show this year I would make the change just because it’s time and hes had his shot.

Great vid, thanks. If anyone had any doubts about Kincaid, this dispels them. He ranks near the top of the league in many metrics for all WRs, not just TEs now. He's great at finding an open space late in in the play and he now has real chemistry with Josh, after that was really lacking last year. We have a TE approaching elite status, a top-5 back and a very good slot guy. Give us a size-speed outside guy and this offense could be unstoppable. But until then, Kincaid and Cook can and should be the focal points.

Yeah, The devil, errr, ah..... the White uniforms made them do it.

it looks even better on all22 tbh currently rewatching as we speak

Like you said Coleman has made some plays and he is not devoid of talent. He is not as fast as Gabe Davis but has better hands. Its odd that they say everybody eats but its clear from the snap count and the plays, they are forcing the ball to Coleman at times. In this offense he should no higher than 4th in targets. The offense should be built around Cook running and receiving, and Kincaid amd Shakir. Those three should be getting 75% of the targets and the other 25% to the rest. Like the other thread, I'm tired of everybody eats.

Josh played great. 70%+ completion, 300+ yards, 2 TD’s. He had the one bad INT and that’s about it. Those complaining about his play have an extra chromosome.

@thenorthremembers i am watching the second half rn it's either short completions or nobody open downfield the bad ball to Shakir for INT and the miscommunication backshoulder throw to Shavers are the only things I can think of

I don't know about other states but Florida also has the charge of "assault on a person 65 or older"...
