Hope that was said tongue-in-cheek. Given a choice between a reckless gunslinger who’s exciting to watch but loses winnable games, or a conservative approach QB that gets the job done consistently, which one do you choose? For me it’s a no-brainer. Big dub all day long. Sugar-high Josh who thought he could do it all and made questionable decisions that occasionally led to turnovers has matured into a refined field general. He now protects the ball and methodically matriculates the team towards the endzone while still putting on the cape with splash plays just enough to still be exciting to watch.

FWIW, my whole section was screaming, “someone get open!!” Lol, it wasn’t just me. Those guys were blanketed. It hasn’t burned them (yet). Thoughts on DJ Moore? His name is starting to show in some rumors. He feels like a guy that would absolutely help. He beats man coverage consistently. Moore feels like a rich man’s Shakir. I’d sign up for that (or a plethora of other guys).

But must be balanced against four 3 and outs. The D was feast or famine on Thursday.

They are doing things different. As the poster you are replying to pointed out - much more man coverage, more 4-3 as their base and more blitzing. Now it is absolutely fair to say at the moment that it doesn't look like those changes are helping a ton (thought they did keep Miami to 4.6 yards per play and under 300 total yards) it is also fair to have questions about the coordination of the defense and the playcalling. But it is not true to say scheme wise they are doing nothing different. They definitely are.

I genuinely was not thinking that. At no poiny did I think the Bills were losing that game. That is kinda of the job of the CB2 in this defense. Keep everything in front break on the ball but at worst tackle immediately and limit YAC. He gave up 5 catches for 27 yards. Now there were two "bad look" plays in that where the coaching put him in a tough spot. The problem yesterday was that they could also throw on the CB1. Benford was dreadful. If that pattern repeats the scheme has an issue.

Miami still had one timeout in its pocket. They were playing to score right at the end of the half. That was their entire strategy on that drive. Had the Bills not used timeouts they'd have used theirs differently. But there is zero doubt in my mind they'd have still bled the clock. Might they have had to settle for 3 instead of 7? Possibly but there is no reason to believe that would have been the case. The problem on that drive was NOT clock management. It was the defenses inability to make a stop.

They could only force things late against the Ravens because they softened up to coverage. On Thursday watching in real time I saw two plays where they definitely had deeper shots called and Josh had time aned eventually decided he didn't like them and came off it underneath to check downs. I haven't all22 reviewed those two plays yet, but I strongly suspect nobody was open. The one point you allude to that does slightly concern me is whether a bit of the gamer has been coached out of Josh in the sense that he is always thinking "safe option" until the game script dictates he doesn't. The thing that makes me think that is the Trubisky pass vs the Jets. He comes in cold, off the bench and throws an aggressive dime. I don't particularly have a stack of evidence to support that theory but that Trubisky play does make me wonder. Primarly though we don't have the ability at outside receiver. That to me remains this team's biggest limitation.

I’m glad he didn’t get a GOOD hand on it. Fish were knocking at the door!

Broncos/Chargers have my eye.

Enjoy the mini-bye week Ed & Matt. Then gitcherazz back on the field!

🤔 well, I have a passing gas problem..

Good. I was gonna suggest upgrading from AoL

Shavers too. Yeah, this is the game I saw. Others here must have been watching vhs tapes..

Wurlitzer

Was at a wedding. 1 reported dead several others injured.

If we didn’t use the timeouts it puts more pressure to move quicker. The way they were moving it didn’t look like they even had enough time to get to the endzone and settling for a FG would have been a bonus. Oddly enough the clock was stopped 5 times and they still barely got there. You can’t say McDs timeouts didn’t help them. We just missed a FG, we didn’t punt and had 3 long drives and were up 14-7, holding them to a FG would have been better and going in half the lead makes more sense. You’re getting the ball back and have a chance to go back up two scores. If you don’t stop them it is what it is, coming out forcing the ball downfield looking for points in a tie game is unlikely to happen with McD. Against the Ravens we were down two scores and chasing points. Big difference

First, thank you for your service. we had a color coded system on how important it was. Of course everybody down to the a new hire figured out within a few days how that worked. So much for the red confidential one

This might sound like I'm patronizing someone here but it's not what I'm trying to do. I was at the Miami game and what I couldn't understand is with Jack Jones and Douglas at corner how come we weren't going after them. I get it that Palmer and Coleman aren't everyone's cup of tea but they should be able to work those two CB's and especially if Miami goes single high to stop the running game. Truth is I think since we've gone to more of a take the profit type of passing game I think we just don't force things as much. I swear i saw open guys downfield at times. I think we could get the ball outside more if we needed to. I think we're not doing it because we don't need to. First throw at Coleman he probably has it but get's held so we get the yards from the PI penalty. They actually ran a slant to him and even with a lot of contact he made the catch. I just think at this point Allen's numbers are on point to be as good or better than last years (MVP numbers) so why would they change anything and force things outside? The Baltimore game is an example of having to force things outside and when they needed to they did. I'm hoping that the ability is there they're just putting it behind the "break in case of emergency" glass.

Josh Allen would be in a tier by himself if he had 6 rushing TDs, 22 passing TDs, and 1 INT going into Week 8.

From what I remember both were kind of a problem. Bills punted a fair amount but had a couple long drives and never cashed in on every turnover. Think they might of got 10 points off turnovers. Not their best showing. Despite the Ds turnovers they never forced a punt and must of gave up about 400 yards to the Ravens. They also gave up a 90 yard drive in the final 5 minutes that looked like a cake walk. And they got beat on the 2 pt conversion, lucky for them Ingram dropped the ball.

I understand it’s totally different circumstances from Karlos Williams (who ate himself out of the league) but after Williams’ rookie season I thought he might end up as an all time Bills’ great. Then, poof, he was done. Davis doesn’t look anywhere near as good as last year so I hope it’s just a sophomore slump.
