I remember that playoff game against the Dolphins a few years ago when Tua didn't play. Some scrub named Skylar Thompson did and he put up some decent numbers against the Bills defense in the Bills 34-31 win. Watch Mills do the same this week.

It's probably a little bit of everything... The Bills run WAY better under center with heavy personnel and pass better out of shotgun with more WR on the field. I don't think this is different from most teams, but it does feel a bit more extreme for the Bills. Josh is a lot of things, but a great timing QB is not really one of them. Lining up under center and throwing the ball at the top of his drop just isn't something he is great at. Add to that that most of the plays are coming with heavier personnel sets on offense and defenses basically letting you run to keep you from passing and you see what we saw most weeks...Bills running the football great and struggling when they try to pass. We blame Coleman or Shakir, but when you only have one or two WR on the field it is a lot easier to play man and isn't super hard to shut down. So they spread out more. Suddenly the passing game opens up and teams are playing less man coverage, but the run suffers with less FB/TE on the field. Josh has better numbers, but also more turnovers and negative plays. Ideally one of two things happens...either A) we get better at passing out of heavy sets and running out of spread sets or B) We stop trying to be cute and abandon the gameplan sooner when it clearly isn't working for whatever reason. There's this idea sometimes that they just need to execute better, but when the margin for error is so small why even put yourself in that situation.

I dont need to go to the Texans message board, I live in Houston and see every game and hear about them ad nauseam. I saw the play of both the year and Mills has played better, imo. . 100% of experts say Stroud is better, 100%. Not going to debate your hyperbole.

They're call Dems!😀

Kelvin Benjamin was the worst starting WR I have ever seen and I saw the strike season. Robert Foster should have started in his place even if he just stood motionless at the line of scrimmage. Throwing to Benjamin led to a lower passer rating than spiking the ball. So the standard here is should we start Shavers over the pool of unexciting receivers on the roster now, but the question then was do we really need to play eleven players every down and if so, should one of them be Robert Foster rather than Benjamin?

You want the worse player. Mills is the worse player. Dalton is worse than Bryce Young. Next week Rudolph is worse than Rodgers. Flacco is worse than Burrow. Just sell out to stop the run. It’s not rocket science. If you get beat by Davis Mills, you deserve to lose.

Yeah. Like, the long TD runs we've given up this year are bad, there's no debating that. But as failures go, giving up a long TD run isn't as damaging as giving up a series of 5-15 yard runs that ends in a TD. The long run can be demoralizing, but getting wrecked over and over on a long TD drive is also demoralizing. I'm not *happy* about where the run D is this year by any stretch. But I'm *less worried* than most.

Dont understimate the texans defense, Scoring 24 or more is no easy task at all. Only teams over 20 this years were the Jaguars with 29 (which Mills had his historic come from behind victory) and the Seawawks with 27.

The QB won’t matter. It’s strictly about not letting Chubb get 200 yards and 3 TDs, like the defense has been guilty of this year. If the Texans run game goes off, it will be tough to win because points will be at a premium against that Texans defense. Didn’t Josh get pretty beat up last year against them?

What are we doing here? 🤣🤣 Yes, Stroud has regressed. He is 100% a better QB than Davis Mills. 🤣🤣 Go to the Texans message boards and get their thoughts. See who they think is a better player. Read any expert. 100% of them will say Stroud is better than Mills. Mills would say that Stroud is better than Mills.

Just came back from my broker. Was there for 90 minutes. Problem wasn't her it was the insurance (Aetna) people. Got a dual medicare plan. First the dentist was in the plan, then it disappeared from their site. Thought I would have to change dentists, but stopped at the dentist on the way home and they said they are in all the Aetna plans. Gave the agent a list of my meds and all my Drs. and she checked which plans they were in ahead of time..

Sorry, I don't mean to rain on the parade, but the Bucs have a horrible coverage unit. I live in Tampa and watched the game with local diehard friends, and it's a known weakness on the team. Not saying we still can't be encouraged by some things, but I would temper expectations a little bit, unless we see it again Thurs.

this is awesome stuff! Great job!

Damn, the need to change the name from Injury Report to Samuel Report.

He has had some diversified looks in the kick return game all year they just haven't always popped Buccaneers also have terrible coverage unit... Realistically if you can't draw up a kick return scheme like this you shouldn't be an NFL special teams coordinator It was a massive bright spot though... Probably the best starting field position for the bills in a long time

Actually, given your failure to condemn her comments, it seemed you were promoting v criticizing. Btw--I'm also hearing shots fired at President Reagan in DC, Michael Jordan to the White Sox Dbl-A team, and Joe Biden sharp as a tack. This is some news day. Still, stay tuned, cub reporter.

If you're gonna do that you better hope you stop the run with the front 7 otherwise you'll see even more big runs with the entire secondaries back being to the play. Our fits have been an issue for a variety of reasons. Age (both young and old), poor key recognition, overlaps fitting too wide, it's not a singular problem. As far as corners being force players in the run game, this is unavoidable, especially when teams run as much condensed sets as they do in the NFL.

Do you make his shoes in a basement Geppetto?

Thanks for posting! This is the content I crave.

Mills QB has vastly improved from his starting years. His first two years he had dreadful one year run Head Coaches, David Culley and had to deal with the Jack Easterby non-sense and Lovie Smith who was "3/4 retired" Till he finally got fired. Whatever he did a few years ago is, imo not indicative of the QB he is now, the man has learned a lot. If we lose, it will be because the Texans are a tremendous defense with a powerful D Line and one great CB (Stingley) which could be left alone on an "island" with our "best" (not saying much) receiver. I think having some faith in Hardman and his speed hardman Bills could flip that advantage a bit. Texans will generate a serious pass rush on Allen.

The bills are a straight up statistical enigma haha you’d think they were bottom of the league in everything watching them but we’re like 12th in yards allowed per game and 14th in points allowed per game 😂 I think the run heavy opponent approach has kinda been a double edged sword…there’s been some comically easy drives but also quite a few three and outs where we stuffed a couple runs in the series. The running game against us has been either home runs or minimal gains it feels like but to truly pound the run most plays I think you’d prefer a 5 or 6 yard gain every play

They don't do much in practice during these short weeks. Also, congrats, Kahlil.

i find them frustrating because there's often lots of tree cover to get caught up in esp in streams. It's fun tho. you can get a similar experience with a casting bubble followed by a fly on a light spinning rod and light line.
