I think the "meaningless" can be interpreted a different way. Maybe "less concerning" is a better term. Of course the season victories play a role but when you're a legit superbowl contender over years; the season becomes just a long evaluation process. We can hang with anybody whether home or away in the playoffs. The glaring issue is this scheme. We've found various scapegoats for every iteration of it: Frazier, Edmunds, undersized LBs, corners not grasping concepts, safeties, lack of pass rush, can't stop the run, 3rd and long, bend but don't break, depth, McDermott should call it, etc... It's like someone throwing you a birthday party but you're uneasy because you know they're gonna smash your face in the cake. I say all that to say it's a very valid position for a fan of this team to take at this juncture.

i demand it 😁😁😅😅 EEHEE !!

i would definitely sign Frankenstein for DL💪💪💓💓 Yes hes a bust 4 weeks in 😒😒

Haven't watched the Jets - Dolphins but have watched the Broncos and Bengals and here are my thoughts: - the Broncos offense is very Sean Payton. Power run game with multiple backs lots of use of them and the tight ends in the short pass game and the odd deep shot when defenses cheat up. But it is just a tad predictable and Bo Nix while capable is not Drew Brees. The ceiling for that sort of scheme is low; - on a personal level pleased for JK Dobbins. I thought he was an electric back coming out and injuries have really derailed his career but he is still only 26 and while the speed isn't quite what it was he is a nice scheme fit in Denver and a big night last night puts him 4th for the year in rushing behind only Taylor, Cook and Etienne; - their defense looked good (and won me a fantasy matchup) after a sluggish start to the year. Nick Bonitto has legit developed into one of the best pass rushers in football; - remember two years ago when Jake Browning was being called one of the best backups in football? This season he looks like a guy who can barely move the ball. The difference? Film. Two years ago when he started for Burrow they were his first starts as a pro teams hadn't worked out his strengths and weaknesses. They very much HAVE now and he looks brutal; - That said I don't think Zac Taylor is helping him. Every passing combination is so slow developing. With any backup you need to give him quick game and let him get the ball out of his hands. They are setting him up to fail... if the Burrow injury means (as I suspect) a losing year then I can see change coming in Cincinnati.

Because he has a monster leg and is more athletic than any punter in the league. Did you miss his 62 yarder ?? He's much stronger now than college

I just continue to hate the defensive scheme. I don't know how feasible it would be but I wish we could find a way to get Jim Schwartz back and hand him the keys.

It would not shock me in the slightest that this is Dawson's last season as a Bill. Hawes is an amazing blocker and has shown so far to be a very reliable pass catcher. I'm not as caught up on angry run yac. Catch the dawn ball and Hawes does that.

I know a lot of folks are thinking in terms of the present, but this very well might be our last go with this scheme. Brady was already interviewing for HC gigs this past season. He might have his pick of the litter this year with opportunities. There could be roughly 10 or so openings available (Tenn, Atl, Mia, Hou, Cle, Cin, Car, NYG, Ari, Bal). There's almost nothing for this team to add offensively (in any scheme) aside from a bonafide alpha talent at WR. It is a well oiled machine as long as Allen is at the helm and I will always be in favor of giving him top notch weapons.

Yea but I doubt they do it while we are 4-0.

He was also in all those meetings with Leslie as well and 3rd down D was not an issue. Nor was players looking confused pre-snap. I don't know what you are willfully not understanding but there are certain issues on defense that you can legitmately put at the door of the overall approach and say they are in part McDermott issues - run defense, inconsistent pass rush, DBs playing deep. And there are some that have only been an issue with this coordinator - 3rd down and pre-snap. I get it, the Head Coach ultimately is accountable for on field performance. But to say "simple as that" really does over simplify something with significant nuance.

If and when Milano returns, just stick with the 4-3 and someone teach Dorian how to tackle. 3 linebackers should help Bosa's contain. Oliver & Walker are the future of our DT's. Bishop is still very raw by gradually improving every game. Baby steps... Rapp?...for a guy who launches himself like a "friendly fire" skud, he sure misses alot of tackles. Hopefully Hoecht & Hairston can have an impact before December? I'd hate to think of where this offense would be without Cook. I was wrong and he's worth every penny. Kincaid too is turning things around from last year. The Saints game execution wasn't perfect but this team reminds me of a cat playing with a mouse before ending it.

AJ Brown?

He could play in the OL if required, he’s a beast

Now that is a gamma ray level burn

I wish I had been as smart as the OP, my forearms now look like those of a lobster

I honestly feel sorry for the Ravens. For years now they've been a strong competitor for the Bills so we sort of hoped they wouldn't do all that well, but what's going on with all these injuries is really devastating. They had the best roster in the league at the start of the season, and for 50 minutes in their first game they looked unstoppable. But they do have a tendency to let the brass ring slip away from them. Are they chokers? Let's just say they aren't great finishers. Lamar is a great QB but compared to Josh Allen he's just a yards machine, not a great leader. The Bills wouldn't be 4-0 right now if it weren't for Allen putting the game on his back and going and getting the win. Lamar Jackson would do that too if he could but clearly he can't, because he hasn't. This is why Allen and not Jackson is correctly the MVP. Anyway it's really hard to keep a strong roster together year after year, like the Bills and Chiefs have done. Are the Ravens going to hit a brick wall the way the Bills did after the Music City disaster, cutting Thurman Thomas, Bruce Smith and Andre Reed because they couldn't afford them plus the good young players they had. Can they keep Derrick Henry and AJ Brown and Lamar Jackson and their defensive stars, year after year? This might have been the Ravens' best year and best chance at a SB, and now they're 1-3 with most of their good D players out.

Looks like his sons arm

This philosophy is so flawed and I can't believe people still stick with it. If you take the ball then don't score you've already given up a massive advantage and made it far more difficult to catch up to it. Even if you do score, you have to be up two scores at the half in order to keep that advantage. Lastly, no one is going to not run the ball just because you scored on the first drive of the game. On the flipside, if you defer and stop their first drive, you have given yourself a potential to be up 3 scores on that team. Even if you don't realize that potential and start slow, you have the cushion to play catch up with the double dip. It is absolutely insane to not defer the ball.

Thank you. I told him they are not and he is getting it fixed.

Half of our Dline investment isnt even playing. Oliver has been out. 2 guys on suspension. Not to mention Milano. Im disappointed in the Dline too but Oliver was a beast and Bosa fed off that as well. Nobodies dline is good when you start taking starters away. Yes, its really the biggest problem is all the missed tackles. Just look how many times we've had a b-line on the QB only to whiff and have the QB pick up a first down.
