    Yep. I think it's because people disregard Allen's contributions to the run game. He's still going to run. His yards still count.

    You're a NUT

    This is one week where the other teams QB rushes for more than Josh. Bills have typically been good at taking away a teams strength and making them beat you with another area. I suspect the Bills will try to contain Fields, stop the run, and make the Bears beat them with the pass. From everything I have read and seen, Fields strength is the long ball and he has struggled at times with the short “touch” passes (sound familiar to anyone we know’s first year or two?). The weather could possibly help the Bills. 
     

  2. I trust our coaches and they have much more exposure to the players. There must be something going on during practice and game install which makes Jackson appear like he deserves snaps. During the game Elam’s skills pop off the screen, Jackson is another Levi Wallace, great guy w/ average skills but knows the system.

    Containing Fields running the ball has to be the Bills top priority. The guys legs are special. No small task. Montgomery is a much better version of Motsert. I thought the Bears game would be a relatively easy wins a few weeks ago. Not anymore. 

    Bills game plan typically  is to make a team one dimensional. Can Fields pass the ball successfully enough to force the Bills to respect it? 

  4. Morse has been very vocal about the amount of concussions and how he approaches his health. I have no idea how severe this injury was and I hope he is resting easy. He has doctors he consults with for his health both now and long term, Morse will listen to them and do what’s best for him and his family. Morse is a very smart guy who understands life is bigger than football. His brothers story taught him that. 
    Having said all that, I hope Mitch is ok, as anyone can tell you who has had one, they aren’t fun.

    If a D is giving you those 5-9 yd passes there's nothing wrong with taking them. They can be a critical part of our game plan. I don't like marching down the field with 5 yd passes, but those successes will open up the running game as well as the occasional deep ball.

    Yep. Bease could help in a ton of ways. I keep thinking about how the Bills run game and play action will allow him to sit down and get 6-8 yards on first or second down, or the clutch catch on third downs.  Hope he has enough juice for 7 wins.

    I had to check Tua's game logs for how many games he played in "cold" weather.

    https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/T/TagoTu00.htm

     

    He has played in 3.  

    1st- 35 degrees in 2020 season in Buffalo.  Defense subbed 2nd string later in game.  56-26.  We all remember that beat down.

    2nd- 43 degrees in last year's Titans game.  Dolphins lost 34-3.  Tua had a horrible game.

    3rd- 45 degrees in 2020 against Denver.  Dolphins lost 20-13.

     

    Had a 58-degree game against the CHI this year.  Dolphins won 35-32.

     

    What's that forecast again?

     

    FWIW.

    Sounds like 55 degrees is the sweet spot for making Tua uncomfortable. 
    Joking, I’m sure he played in cold games while in college and did well. 

  7. Some of you I want to ask a question: Do you care more about being right (about a player being bad) or watching your team win?

    As it stands today none of us know what Beasley will provide for production. The people who have all the information think this is a good move to make. I like the GM and coaches recognizing there a situation that needs to be addressed. Good for them for not sitting on their hands or trying to deny there is an issue. You want to live in the past and rehash how we got here? Go ahead, that is your luxury as a fan. I think a healthy approach which makes me feel better is that this could help Josh and the offense. What Beasley does is find spots in zone coverage, and Beasley always has had good hands. If either one of those traits has left completely, then Beasley will not be w/Buffalo for long and the team is in no different a spot then before.

    Unless he gained 200 pounds and can play on the right side of an offensive line, I don’t see any desire to bring him back.
     

    Yes I liked his highlights, too. But he has gone downhill and was cut from a practice squad for christs sake. And he has specifically said he didn’t like Buffalo. 

    Bease is an emotional dude, I bet he says a lot of things that later he wishes he had said differently or not at all. 
    The oline is a reason why we need someone who can find the quick opening in a defense for Josh to throw too.

    If he meets with the team and they think it’s a good fit, I’m all for it.
