  1. Past hour
  2. It's a very common phrase and a very common play. Read the defense and throw the ball where there's going to be space. The receiver can adjust easier than the defender.
  3. Steelers: Loss Bengals: Loss Patriots: Loss Browns: Win Eagle: Loss Jets: Win It's going to be a 9-8 season. 10-7 if things go really well.
  4. People with very high expectations have very low resilience. Stop expecting so much and sports become much more enjoyable.
  5. Brady is more like the guy everyone saw at CAR than at LSU. Without Allen the Bills are one of the worst O's in the league with his scheme.
  6. Yes, unfortunately.
  7. This. This is our worst issue right now IMHO. We have enough talent to be effective, but not when the OC is failing at his job as bad as Brady has been this year. Yes, everyone knows we could use a top end WR1 or deep threat, but that doesn't get to be the excuse for Brady when his play calling and adjustments are so bad. Our offense has gotten so predictable and the blue print to disrupt it has been there all year. When the league started to figure McVay out, he adjusted and countered. Brady is not doing a good job at this, nor is he doing a good job to keep the defenses guessing. It is so easy to tell what we are about to run or call most the game. Then there is his terrible adjustments, or lack there of: I was screaming all game to attack short, quick hitters. Quick drop and fire - screens, slants, short crossers, comebacks, curls, shots to the RBs out of the backfield, etc. But we were calling stuff constantly that take too long to develop against a pass rush owning our line rushing just 4. Allen constantly taking deep drops and looking downfield behind a line getting dominated and crushing our QB was one of the dumbest things I have seen him do yet, and she stuck with it until the very end before he finally did something different and attacked quick hits to move the ball the final drive. This team has issues on it overall - but Brady has gone from a hero (last year) to approaching a zero this year because he doesn't seem to have the answers to what opposing DC's are now doing to disrupt his offense. Side note: The WR group out there has been terrible this year on scramble drills too. I don't understand how this is so bad this year when its been such a big part of our offense for years.
  8. Can somone send this to Terry and explain how bad this is please?
  9. Bills fans are a hardy bunch I was salty last nite but more because how much Josh was getting abused not just the loss We were really close to losing Josh last nite with an injury
  10. Steelers: Loss Bengals: Loss Patriots: Loss Browns: Win Eagle: Loss Jets: Win It's going to be a 9-8 season. That won't be good enough for a wildcard.
  11. Why would any of the aforementioned DC leave their current teams to join us? If you haven't watch the 49ers or Dolphins they run timed based passing games which lately Josh has sucked at cuz he not doing 3-5 steps drop and pass. Instead he's looking at one read and looking to extend the play but rarely staying in pocket.
  12. The Brady ship has sailed. He cannot design a passing offense. He built a reputation as an offensive guru by having a bunch of future all pro at LSU. He's painfully predictable, unless he's drawing up a stupid gadget in a crucial situation that doesn't work. He does nothing to react to game situation. How do you do nothing to help a hobbled Spencer Brown when he's getting eaten up? I don't care how weak the talent at receiver is, the structure and play calling are worse. Josh shouldn't be immune to criticism either. He's not playing to his standard. If he was an A last year, he's playing at B-/C+ this year. Josh doesn't deal with pressure well. It's never been a strength of his game. His answer to pressure is almost always his legs. If he can't break the pocket and scramble, he's in trouble. Every year or so he has 1 of these meltdown games where the pressure gets in his head and he totally loses his ability to process. He got no help from Brady but he needs to be better at anticipating pressure and getting the ball out.
  13. You can't just spot a crap offence 20 points in the first half. Over 200 yards and 20 points in one half is unacceptable against any team, nevertheless playing against Davis Mills. Did it get better? For sure. But it's still not good enough on defence in totality
  14. Oliver played very well the year immediately following the agreed upon extension and then had a step back year, that’s correct. He has wrecked havoc in every game this year where he was healthy. We cannot predict injuries, he’s largely been durable. In no way was his contract extension at $17M or $18M/yr a large financial failure given his overall play. He’s arguably our best defender and makes half of what other premium DTs make. Good contract.
  15. Yeah that's a really tough catch over the defender while twisting back toward the sideline. They should have tried that more than once in the game. It would have worked if the ball were placed a little better.
  16. I’m a lapsed Sabres fan. Terry Pegula is responsible for that. Now he’s doing it to my Bills fandom, as well. Someone upstream commented that they don’t want Beane picking the new HC… this team, with an all-time great QB, is *****. Can’t reach their goals with the current staff, that’s becoming clearer with each passing day, can’t rely on the owner to make a competent, informed hire if he actually does have the stones to do what needs to be done (which, if you follow the career of Kevyn Adams, is in serious doubt anyway).
  17. The offense is a hot mess. The defense is even worse and has been all season. Sorry, but I just don't see it. Odds-wise I thought I saw a stat during the game last night where it said that if the Bills lose the game they would have an 87% chance of getting into the playoffs. I don't trust the stat just based on the way this team is playing, the coaching, the injuries, and everything else. I guess the only good news is that the Eagles game that I shelled out a ton of $$ for tickets to may actually mean a lot for the Bills and their chances to make the playoffs. Yeah, call all of this an overreaction but based on the body of games, play, and coaching decisions to date, I vote no. I really hope I'm wrong.
  18. I didnt see a single blitz up until I quit watching in the 3rd.
  19. And I am telling you I'm not going You're the best man I'll ever know There's no way I can ever go No, no, there's no way No, no, no, no way I'm living without you I'm not living without you I don't wanna be free I'm staying, I'm staying And you, and you You're gonna love me You're gonna love me
  20. We are firmly on track for a 9-8 season.
  21. Step 1 Hire a highly qualified forward thinking GM with the balls to say he won't take the job unless Pegula agrees to stay completely away from any football decision making. Preferably a GM with either proven past success or a really good resume building up to the position. Also give the GM full power to hire/fire the coach, Pegula's job is to write the checks and STFU. Otherwise, no deal on accepting a job. Step 2 Immediately fire McDummy and the entire staff save maybe Kromer Step 3 Bring in a progressive offensive minded HC/OC, and a strong highly productive DC Step 4 Purge the roster of all of the crappy contracts by trades and cuts and build up 2027 draft capital. Take the cap hits as much as possible in 2026 Step 5 Fire the entire training and nutritional staff (AGAIN), I'd go so far as to purge the doctors on staff as well. Step 6 Give Allen a year off to get his head straight, seriously, place him on IR in 2026 for mental reasons and throw the season with a roster full of JAGS to reset the cap. Give Mitch a season to showcase how much he sucks. They likely ain't doing crap in 2026 anyhow with the roster issues we have. Take the lumps and rebuild with youth in the 2027 draft and key UFA and trade acquisitions. Step 7 Rebuild with legit talent and speed and let Josh be Josh and stop f'n neutering him. Rebuild the defense with the size, grit, toughness, nastiness and speed required to compete in todays NFL. No more tweeners, undersized, injury prone slugs. We don't need a team full of McClappy choirboys. Extreme measures are necessary or Josh will likely never sniff a Super Bowl in Buffalo, much less win one. His clock is ticking.
  22. Exactly why Beane and McDermott need to go. This organization desperately needs a shake up
  23. Our defense was not good period . Texans in the first half could have had 40 pts if Davis Mills could hit the broad side of a barn . They played conservative in 2nd half knowing long as they didn't turn it over and gave the Bills a long field their defense would hold. Tre White, Poyer, Milano, Taron Johnson are all worn out. Bernard is just bad and the D line are jags All 12 of them. They couldnt contain all world Davis Mills. The OL should be embarrassed and Dawkins laughing with the Texans pass rushers after the game makes me sick. McDermott is prepping us to throw the coordinators under the bus post season. He's not going to fess up that maybe they need a different direction for roster construction. Allen's going to need a few hundred hours of counseling to get up the juice to do this all over again next year and expect a different turn out. He needs to march his ass in to Beane/McDermotts office and demand some changes while his body is still near its peak. I'm going to just try and enjoy Sundays and hope for entertaining games and for the QB to avoid an injury Were not going anywhere with this roster
  24. Bump… decided to go to a college game instead so now selling Bengals. jets game still available.
  25. Byron Leftwich as passing game coordinator? He was a hot commodity for a bit. Fresh set of eyes cant hurt.
  26. Oh I absolutely think mental fatigue plays a role here. A good chunk of this team has made the playoffs multiple years in a row and almost every year outside of 2020 and 2022 they've lose games they could have and arguably should have won. There has to be a certain element of feeling like "man just get me back there so I can do it right this time!!!" I know for me I've really approached this season with a "wake me up in January" approach. I watch all the games and have fun watching them (yes, I'm one of the fans still having fun... and it might be because of this approach), but I don't really care all that much about these games because it's just the regular season. I know others will disagree, but I still really don't have a doubt that the Bills get into the playoffs. And once they're in, all of these regular season games are meaningless. Yes, I realize they matter for where the games are played, but Allen is a gamer and I still very much believe that this team's extensive experience in the playoffs is really going to help them. Now... the problem is that my approach to the season is just fine because I'm just a fan. Bills players need to find ways to not fall into that same mentality. However, they're human beings. And truthfully, they're the ones who were actually up close and personal to those losses in the playoffs over the years. So I could absolutely see them just looking ahead. I think we should prepare ourselves for this roller coaster to continue. I think we'll lose 1 or 2 of our remaining games and end up in the playoffs as a wildcard team on the road. And I'm fine with that. Maybe sending this team on the road in the playoffs will actually weirdly take a little pressure off their shoulders.
