  1. Past hour
  2. We better see a 40-0 score next week to satisfy this fanbase. Although then the opponent will have been terrible and it won’t mean much until the playoffs. Something like that. Just accept that we ***** suck till we win it all.
  3. As soon as I saw “calibre” in the OP, I knew it was gonna suck.
  4. agree 100%. Miami was playing a lot of 2 high looks with a spy in the middle, daring Allen to take the short stuff and hoping he would eventually get frustrated and press (hoping for an interception). Allen was patient ALL night and didn't force anything. That's the sign of a super mature QB. And I guess the only other 'deep pass' was the TD attempt to the back of the end zone for Kincaid. Perfect pass by Josh but the CB timed it perfectly to break it up.
  5. It's beyond silly hearing people bash the Bills offense like it’s been some kind of disaster. If you’re one of those folks, — you’re just showing your lack of knowledge. Let’s talk facts: #1 in total offensive yards — that means we move the ball better than any other team in the league. #2 in points Scored — our offense is putting up big time points on the board #1 in turnovers given up — yeah, this is the one sore spot. But guess what? That’s not a scheme issue — that’s execution. #1 in 30+ points per game since last year in the league - meaning we are consistently beating the crap out of opposing defenses. #2 in TIme of Possession - against the Ravens we had it for 34 minutes 49 seconds, against the Jets for 38 minutes and 21 seconds and against the Dolphins for 31:47 for an average of 34 minutes and 41 seconds. #3 Rushing attack in the league at 166 ypg Red zone offense is at 71.43% which means we get to the Red zone and we are putting in the endzone. Now let’s rewind to last season: We were top 2 in scoring, top 5 in yards, and top 5 in third-down conversions. Josh Allen was top 3 in total touchdowns. We had one of the most balanced and explosive offenses in the NFL. So when people infer the offense is boring or the receivers don't get "separation" - all I hear is - "I don't know jack squat about what a successful football team looks like" it’s just lazy talk. I think some of you would prefer a team like the Bengals who throws the ball 40 times a game to WR's. How did that work out for them last year? You’re ignoring the numbers and reacting emotionally. Bottom line: this offense is elite.
  6. That was early in the game. After the first drive in the second half it felt like most passes were at the LOS. We’re the db’s sitting back? Probably as they pretty much played with 3rd string except for Fitzpatrick. The Oline was not holding up at all though. Those to things are what drove what we got. They imposed their will on us unfortunately.
  7. Personally I just don't think the Bills feel they need to do a lot to beat 2 of the teams they just played in division so they haven't shown much.
  8. Tua went out and told the press that he can’t do half of what Josh does. He’s right, of course, but I don’t think I’ve ever heard a QB actually say something like that before.
  9. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/_/id/72410/greg-rousseau He has a cap hit of 5.8 million this year, 12 million next year. In fact Epenesa makes more that Groot presently Then in 2027 his cap hit will be over $20 million, with an out available in the offseason 2028 Groot is an edge setter and a lane disruptor, and not a sack master. By the time he is making $20 million plus he will be considered cheap when compared to other top pass rushers, plus he will be a candidate for a restrucutred contract. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/rankings/player/_/year/2025/position/ed/sort/cap_total We do need to get more pressure on the opposing QB. Hopefully when our DL is healthy players come back from suspension as well as rookies stepping up can make that difference in the 2nd half of the season.
  10. Musing with 'some' sleep 1. Josh can not throw a better pass than the one he threw to Kincaid in the right end zone corner. Timing, angle, placement.. ooh la la 2. Cook is such a sneaky runner. It doesn't look like he is running and then bam, he turns it up a notch. 3. Wasn't surpised at all the game was close. Dolphins playing for their season last night. 4. Roughing the kicker was the play of the game. 5. Surprised the Bills did not get a sack in that game with such a patchwork OLINE they were up against. 6. Miami is going through DBs at an unsustainable rate. 7. Tre White looks slow. He did make some good tackles though. 8. Held my breath through the commercial break when Benford went down. Glad he was able to finish. 9. The Prater miss had a huge impact on momentum. 10. Allen picking up 19 on a 1st and 20 scramble was also a massive play in the game. 11. TB.. TB.. TB.. The nailer in the coffin. 12. Miami has a nice two-headed monster in the backfield now. 13. Special Teams not so special.. Fix that please.
  11. It was just a lot of easy missed plays...like Tre having a free run at Tua on 3rd and 12 for what should have been an easy sack and coming in too out of control so Tua easily spun away and completed it to Hill after rolling out. Still think it's more of the newer players needing time to gel together which is causing a lot of this...hoping by midseason they are at least average Also have 2 major FA signings in Hoecht and Ogunjobi who are out a few more weeks...Hoecht is especially important because he was being planned to use all over the D as a chess piece almost because of his versatility.
  12. Defense hasn’t looked great, but keep in mind this week was a short week, hosting a division rival who is desperate to win. Additionally, we didn’t have the following starters - Maxwell Hairston - Ed Oliver - Matt Milano In their place you have other rookies and 2nd stringers stepping up. Not to mention we have a few other players who are hurt or suspended that can’t contribute yet. It’s not an excuse, every team has injuries, but I hope some adjustments get made during this long weekend and we get right soon. One thing this Defense has done well is make plays when down to the wire. I’d rather not bank on that every game, but they’ve showed they can make a stop when absolutely necessary. So far, that has been good enough, but we have to get more disciplined.
  13. Probably a bad word. The passing game got shorter and shorter as the game went on. The drops were brutal though.
  14. Zion Logue just because I think he deserves a little recognition. He looks like a solid run defender. The Bills are going to have some difficult decisions once Hoecht and Ogunjobi return, and it's possible someone will try to sign Logue off the PS before that happens.
  15. And Baltimore gave up 41. What's your point?
  16. I don’t understand. You want a play or two that will consistently yield 3-5 yards then bring up tush push that is designed to get a yard?
  17. And it wasn't all soft zone. There was some sticky man coverage sprinkled in and people talk like the D was horrible, but it forced four 3 and outs. It was very feast or famine. It felt like the Bills were willing to come out each drive and get in the Dolphins' faces but the moment they managed a first down they bailed out and became passive. I'm not sold at all on Babich. He had some nice calls last night but some of his 3rd down calls were just nonsensical too.
  18. Miami has plenty of talent. Their defensive line is really good. They have explosive stars on offense. Their issues are not talent issues. They lack leadership and toughness. And their secondary is not great.
  19. My complaints are not about last night but for what we have done with Brady at the helm overall his past two seasons in control. The question I can’t answer is , is it the talent at wide receiver position that holds this offense back when it’s needed to show up in the playoffs? If so then Beane has failed Josh miserably. If it’s not the talent then Brady is just unimaginative and too conservative at times. His revamping of the running game has worked wonders, if he could do the same with the passing game we could be legendary. I asked in another response is there a few plays we can count on to get 3-5 yards consistently when needed against a good defense? I don’t see it. Look what Miami did on third and long. The throw back and quick out. They understood our tendencies and where our defense was weak and attacked it perfectly. I don’t see that from Brady. This is no longer about the regular season. We know we can get enough wins there, this is totally about what we can do and what we do during the playoffs. And as of right now, I don’t see anything different than the past few years.
  20. 3 if you count Hairston
  21. I wonder whether Hoecht will eat into his playing time after his suspension ends? Bosa playing 87% of the snaps just feels like flirting with disaster but Bosa has played very well so far and is very noticeable compared to what we have had before.
  22. To be fair they signed on potential and what he might provide in future years - similar to the Ed Oliver 4/68 extension. Oliver has been worth the new contract. Time will tell if Rousseau will do the same. But it hasn't been a great start. I mean heck, if he had say two passes batted and 3 TFLs after three games we would all be reasonably happy. But he hasn't even reached those modest stats. Hopefully the ten day break and subsequent reset will give him the spark he needs.
  23. So make sure I have this right. The Bills should only count victories against teams you deem worthy of providing competition. And when they do play a team that you deem worthy, they must only beat those teams using offensive strategies that you agree with. If a team is susceptible to the run and we win that way, we should not claim that win because it was not done in the correct manner. One of the QBs Josh is often compared to is Elway. Elway did not win a Lombardi until he had a strong complementary running game. As to your last point I don’t care how many points we score in a playoff game nor how we score them, so long as it is one more point than the opponent.
  24. I watched Tia’s presser last night and he’s a really class act. Respectful, humble, etc. I also watched his Coach’s presser and he’s a head case. Looks like he hadn’t slept. He has no answers. And threw his QB under the bus for not taking the check down on the final interception. Sheeesh!
