Mine is rooted in both. I watch him play and I see the all 22 clips, just like you im sure. I see a solid player who fundamentally is good, especially in the run game. What I don't see is a game changing, impact player. And the math, (assuming you mean stats), reflect that. On pace for like 5 sacks and like 5 TFLs for a 20m dollar player? I'm sorry that I want more out of him and I don't consider that anywhere near dominating

I know more about XXV than any rational Bills fan should. Without getting into it again, the blame falls on the D. NY TOP 41:34. 9/16 on 3rd downs. They had them in the 1st half. A few drives up 10-3 and then 12-3. Still hurts.

Dak is underrated. He is a top 10 guy.

The Thursday games are criminal but that $$$$ train has left the station. That and still some fields that should be fixed are part of the injury concerns. The NFL will look and speak to many safety concerns but they won’t at the expense of $$$$. Not the playing of international games on inferior fields like the Bills Jags in London. That was an egregious safety issue and the league does not care. In fairness I’ve heard thats the most athletic bridge club in the country.. but that’s just speculation 😂

I have a couple of back-up DEs stashed in my closet -- still in their original packaging.

You bought a car from Curtis Underwood!?

lol….and do those guys in that sack range play amazing d vs the run? sacks sacks sacks sacks sacks there is more to being a good DE than accumulating sacks. Those that get 14+ are going to get 30-50M and some of them play poor run D. Rousseau plays great run D and is a decent pass rusher and is 25 years old. Hes not a star and he isn’t paid like a star.

26th in the country at around 32 or 33 points per game

Agree about better shape.....but he is getting long in the tooth....might not be about better shape. Kromer worked some absolute mastery there in Pitt. I do not think that is sustainable but after reading the Timmah Graham The Athletic article about Kromer I am beginning to believe he could take my mother and her bridge team and do some damage!!!

Good point. Being an AFC matchup it impacts the conference record tie breaker. The Philly game if they are to lose makes the least impact for playoffs. But yes they are all big. Miami game 2 certainly looks large now.

The season is too long. 17 games is too many. Injuries will remain an issue, esp. if the league go to an 18 game season.

Montana State just handled Yale. On to the next. Go Cats!!!

Why do we consider this "must win" mode? Pretty much that is how it goes in the NFL. They only play 17 games. They are all really important.

DD played poorly vs Texans and got hurt in that game. I think I would need to see way more of VDM before I say it’s an upgrade. DD moves early as LT speed rush is a concern. I’d like to see him get in better overall shake in the off season. But both OTs played well enough for the Bills not to panic if they need to start.

I can live with 2-3 designed calls......sometimes they are monster runs......for him any ways. All depends if the other team is spying. Then those runs are worth dog poo!!

I don't know how good/bad the 'Bama offense typically is but that Georgia D looks like it's about 2 series away from starting to actually hurt some people.

Georgia Nebraska in the SEC championship game is unprecedented!

Thanks for sharing. It's tough to compare the impact of injuries across the NFL, so this is probably as good as it gets to achieving that. And yeah, losing your starting QB is way more impactful than any other position, so that makes sense. The other tough thing to quantify is players playing hurt. We've had plenty of hobbled players who suit up, but can't play to their normal level. Last year he was elite for sure. Not even a question. He was really, really good. This year he has regressed a bit.

I jus can't bring myself to call him ELITE. Good to very good yes. ELITE.....I just cannot go there And now you are gonna make me look this up. Cuz damn near every game my wife and I laugh about it.....Yup - Dion with ANOTHER penalty.

Josh averages 6.5 runs per game. Only 2-3 are designed runs. Some are just QB sneaks on short yardage. It seems to make him more engaged in games. I actually think he needs to take off more when he’s had some chances outside the pocket. It’s part of his skill set. But 2-3 designed runs typically in red zone is ok with me.

Go Duke! JMU getting a playoff spot would be nuts

I don't think you are allowed to say nice things about the coaches and staff. You have to call for them to be fired. You are only allowed to say nice things about Josh Allen. Maybe he gets a penalty here and there, but he is still a really good player. He was ELITE last year. One of the best in the NFL. He hasn't been as good this year, but he is still a good starter.

I do have to disagree. Some positions are in much higher demand than others. In most drafts you can get a quality starting S in the 3rd round. And I mean guys who will start and play as rookies and grade in the middle of the pack. The same for RB and C, and somewhat less so for G.

Touting the O line as top tier but not as good as last year (when I don’t think they were among the best) isn’t supported by the results. Yes the WR room stinks, but it’s not materially different from last year, minus Dalton, who had a depressed sophomore effort last year anyway (was better this year before he went out, granted). Palmer is a WR 3/4 basically swapped for Hollins. His 3+ targets per game aren’t the difference…
