Everyone but the Dorians has a chance to play Sunday. That’s good news.

Fair point on that last. On the earliest, choosing good coordinators and letting them cook is part of the skill of being a good head coach. And I believe Vrabel left his chosen OCs to do their thing, meaning Tim Smith was responsible for the dismal 2023 ground and pound strategy. And in truth, losing Tannehill for 5 games of the 2022 season and 9 games of 2023 rather forced his hand. Maybe you think he should have forced an air attack with Will Levis as QB for 9 games, but maybe that would have been foolish.

Not good on Strong. Other injuries looking more promising per McD on WGR

It won't be as drastic, a mid 2nd round pick being out performed by an early 4th rounder is not shocking. Sanders looks OK which is not bad for a rookie. Walker looks like a steal but the question with Walker wasn't talent for the most part it was health.

Congrats on the upcoming birth!

All signs point to ol' Diddy getting years in the joint...

This thread inspired me!! I started a new job 4 weeks ago and we have a baby coming next month. Needless to say, we have boxes, upon boxes, upon boxes of “things” being delivered every day. A lot of that stuff just sits in the boxes until we have the nursery set up. We did most of that yesterday. I decided to go through all of those boxes and see if one of the was from the Bills Ticket. Lo and behold…

Damn, thank you!

Ed’s horses will not appreciate this.

Well, there's two things. First, Warner QB'd 3 Superbowls for 2 different teams, by virtue of his mind, not his superior athletic skills. So naturally that's the position he feels most comfortable critiquing. It also factors in that his Rams coaches believed in hard coaching. The harder you coach someone, the more you value them and believe they can thrive. Second, as alluded to above, the offensive system Warner QB'd was built on knowing exactly the best place to go with the ball pre-snap and immediately post snap. Very cerebral. He's not "second guessing", he's making the read as he would have made it, based on reading the defense before and after the snap from film, and based on the offenses he captained where there was a best decision on every play and that was the right decision. The only QB he's sort of backed away from doing that with a bit is Josh. He seems to acknowledge that Josh's skill set is so different, that the same analysis doesn't always apply. On the other hand, there are times when he does point out that Josh has options he's not taking and the offense would function more smoothly if he did (as when the Bills were struggling in the RZ a couple years back) and I think that's totes fair.

Nothing, I’m venting, this thread was open and I’d just listened to someone fawning over the Patriots.

…and why no team should EVER take another team for granted. The 49ers were missing their starting QB, top 3 WRs, star TE, and all-pro edge rusher. That’s SIX out of 22 starters (27%). They were facing a stacked Rams team that was basically healthy. The difference between success and failure in this league is a hair’s breadth, which is why Bills fans sound like lunatics and entitled A-holes when complaining about how many style points the Bills have amassed during their first four wins of the season. Ask the coaches and players around the league if they care how much they win by or whether their team beat the spread. This is also why I and several others on this forum have chosen to appreciate and enjoy what we have the privilege to witness right now in Buffalo, rather than starting insane thread after thread about WRs or that Babich/McD can’t coach. I’ve said it before — if you tie your enjoyment of Bills football solely to whether or not they hoist a Lombardi Trophy, you’re doing yourself a disservice. Go Bills!!!

There's still plenty of time to properly review the draft, but it would be interesting if Sanders/Walker turns into Elam/Benford part 2, with the much lower pick eclipsing the high one.

The Steelers defense that ranks bottom-5 in yards allowed per game (382.5) and bottom-third in points allowed (24.5)? That same unit let the Justin Fields-led Jets, the Sam Darnold-led Seahawks, and the Carson Wentz-led Vikings move the ball at will. Meanwhile, Buffalo ranks 9th in yards allowed per game (290) - and that’s even with the 400+ they gave up in Week 1 against Baltimore. Since then, no opponent has topped 300 yards. The Bills just held those same Fields-led Jets to 150 total yards and 10 points, a week after New York hung 300 and 32. I’m not saying it’ll be a blowout, but the idea that New England walks into Orchard Park on primetime and rolls up offense just because they did it against Pittsburgh feels… questionable.

I think it's TBD if Vrabel is really a good coach. He had some of the best coordinators in the league during the Titans' best runs, and Tannehill was playing well above his usual. His last few seasons w/ TN were downright bad, and TN fans lamented his conservative ground & pound strategy. Even though the Pats had a huge win against probably the worst team in the league, their season so far has been characterized by some pretty undisciplined play, including untimely turnovers and penalties. I think he's good for culture - for games, it remains to be seen w/ NE, and if can turn that team into a contender.

He should burn in hell.

I hope so but while Oliver is out (and Groot possibly still playing with a lingering injury) I'm not betting on it.

Wrong again, anus man. You omitted the part of the quote in prior poster spoke specifically of the office of the president of the United States. This is what happens when you dwell more on your enthusiasm for the sphincter than on reading comprehension.

Cover zero every play.

Vrabel may be a meathead, but he's a damned good coach. That said, the BBFS is strong with some of the posts here.

Why is the Bills website wishing good luck to Toronto? Color me disappointed.

Remember when everyone was very concerned about the Jets when they basically dominated the weekend before against the Steelers only to have Rogers take over the game late? Or how everyone was nervous before the Miami game. Now everyone is so sure NE is way better than those teams. Who really thinks running up the score on the Panthers is a clear indication that they've suddenly become a powerhouse? NE has a problem with coughing up the ball and Maye can't put the offense on his back and carry them the way Josh can. Their pass defense is weak and their rush defense is suspect. They haven't shown that they can successfully run the ball and their coach is a meathead. Really.... Bills by 20

Meet the Syrian Migrant Named Jihad Who Killed Manchester Jews Catherine Salgado No one grounded in reality will be shocked to discover the background of the terrorist who attacked a Manchester synagogue on Yom Kippur. Jihad Al-Shamie, whom Greater Manchester Police describe as a “British citizen of Syrian descent,” took his name so seriously that he decided to wage jihad (“holy war”) on the congregants of Heaton Park Hebrew Congregation Synagogue. After all, Islamic sacred texts command the killing of Jews. Jihad thought he was on his way to Paradise for running over and stabbing Jews, so he was in for a fiery surprise after law enforcement shot him. The police tentatively identified the killer as Al-Shamie but noted that other individuals were also in custody in connection with the ongoing investigation. The police were also, of course, reluctant to admit that there could be any obvious motivation for a Syrian to attack a synagogue. What a mystery. Al-Shamie drove his vehicle into the synagogue and stabbed a man to death in an attack that killed two and injured multiple people. The synagogue was full at the time due to service for Yom Kippur, the holiest day in the Jewish calendar. https://pjmedia.com/catherinesalgado/2025/10/02/meet-the-syrian-migrant-who-killed-manchester-jews-n4944410

LOL, well played.

It also appears to be deliberately misleading, so there is that…. It seems that it came right around the tipping point, but let’s not paint the whole picture when we can prop up a narrative instead.
