All Activity

Everyone keeps watching Henry runs to see what went wrong, but I would like to take a look at a positive. I know a lot less than a lot of posters here about the x's and o's of football, but I invested in NFL+ Premium to watch all-22 film to see if I can learn a bit more. I just keep watching the pass to Palmer that put the Bills into FG range from both angles to see what I can get out of it. At the time, the Ravens were playing prevent with 4 CBs and 2 Safeties. The Bills put a lot of mess in the middle of the field to draw the LBs, two of the CBs, and Starks the FS away from the action part of the play. Knox has gone in motion so he was on the same side of the field as Palmer. What happened after the snap is that Knox and Palmer ran what I think is called a high-low concept where they were stacked about 5 yards away from each other (with Knox short). What Josh did was to pump fake to Knox, drawing CB Awuzie up and getting Jaire Alexander to turn his hips. Then Palmer went deeper and got in between the off-balance Alexander and Hamilton who was playing deep and had 5 yards of open field between them. That pump fake really made the play work. Palmer also ran one heck of a route. Tell me if I'm completely wrong on all of this.

I don't know. But they are working in some new pieces and opened up against the worst matchup they will face all regular season. I'm bullish on the unit getting better and better. I think the Bills may have led the league in fumble recoveries last season and were pretty high in INT's including 3 TDs. That's the secret sauce for this D. Not sure if Babich can will that to happen again or if it's just luck. We shall see.

Agreed. A penance needs to be paid for those who lost faith. $17 from every fav who left early.

Even though you are fiercely independent, you declared Kamala to be an ok candidate in your election post-mortem and you stood tall for The Big Guy post-debate. The only other person alive doing that was Dr Jill. Now you are throwing them both under the bus. Sad! You suck as a political observer. Or perhaps you’re just a hyper-partisan. Either way…

Pretty sure no one left because they didn't have faith in Josh, they left because they rightfully had no faith in a defense that let Henry run through them at will. Now unless Josh wants to suit up as a safety as well (surely even that would be an upgrade) and take even more of a load on than he already has on his shoulders it had nothing to do with a lack of faith on the offense.

I expect the Jets to give us a tough time but we'll overcome it.

Yes keep mentioning j6. It's going great. MOAR!!!! How far was Biden past his date before he was removed by your party?

As tough as the Ravens game was, it might be a good prep for the Jets. Fields is a good runner but not quite Jackson, Hall and Allen are good but not Henry level. Their OL ain't the Ravens IMO. If the Bills defense can get the Jets to 3rd and long and then not surrender long runs by Fields, we should be ok. I think our offense will be fine against almost any team, including the Jets.

oliver was so good that was allpro level play for sure but i remember aaron donald being part of some pretty mediocre defenses if memory serves maybe dt is just one of those spots

The reality is even had we signed peppers, it would have taken months to integrate Him. This team doesn’t do a great job of integrating guys on the fly like this.

It’s the worthy trade clouding judgement…with worthy out for awhile Keon is gonna have a chance to catch him in games played and will likely pass him statistically once their games played even out. And that’s even with Keon falling off pretty hard post injury. From the nfl analyst narrative about that trade though you’d never know Keon has been putting up numbers when healthy lol he’s actually been more of a big splash play type player than even worthy has ironically enough…his yards per reception numbers are very high They must’ve picked him for the obligatory ‘we must call one penalty on the dbs to keep them somewhat honest’ because they knew he was too nice to complain lol

He was a real escape artist in the pocket, too. I don't know how he was able to navigate some of those pockets and get out of pressure. He just has a sixth sense of where to go, sometimes. He is so hard to sack. Jackson as well, but they do it differently.

I was there. Don't want to be the guy complaining about a blowout win but UB's offense looks like it needs work. I don't think they even used 5% of their playbook. Probably didn't want to show anything to future opponents. On the other hand attendance was good. 16K? Over 5 sections were students.

I really think we may trade for a Safety, and possibly another defensive position, before the halfway point of the season.

Nicely done, all good observations. I was especially excited to see Coleman and Palmer's 4th quarter performances. This was one of our biggest concerns coming into the season. While only one game, they are giving us cause for great optimism.

Dion is typically not very demonstrative but he looked pretty pissed off about the holding call they tagged him with as well. Meanwhile Wiggins, Benford and even Hamilton were running around doing quality control testing on tearaway jerseys

Oh, for me he passed his expiration date a long time ago. It's just now that the blue-green mold is starting to show. The J6 hissy fit should've finished him off, but, well, Biden/Kamala.

That's a whole discussion by itself. If Harbaugh was going for it, what do you think the best play they have to convert it? I bet both the Ravens and the Bills know it will be on the ground. I know Jackson hobbled a bit on the Oliver hit right before the play. But even it does not bother him, you can bet the Bills will stack up to the front, blitz with run awareness, double Flowers, one-on-one with everyone else. It is less than 50-50 chance to convert at that time if Harbaugh was not comfortable with putting the ball in the air. And the consequence of a failed conversion is high chance of loss: inside 2 minutes, one first down to running out of the clock and a field goal. Conversely, if the Bills were in Ravens position, going for it would be the right play, just like Andy Reid would do for the Chiefs. You have reliable target for short area quickness targets, capable running back going to the edge, and a mobile QB.

Agreed. It's the only reason I'm willing to spend as much time as I do running around here with a mop and a shillelagh.

The big question for me: that 2003 phony huge check signed "Trump" refers to a "depreciated" asset (young woman, no doubt) sold to Trump. The name is redacted. Presumably she is out there somewhere. And like all such things, the truth will come out. Unrelated: Trump proposed to Melania in 2004.
