JESSEFEFFER

Guys that whiff on the block most likely to recover the strip sack fumble.

Game winners vs Steelers and Rams. Not bad considering how little he played.

He was gone way before Bills picked. Not sure what you mean. Moore was a nice idea for the Bills.

I am watching. Taylor in my fantasy lineup with Hines on my bench. It looks like they will run for 200+.

Sometimes the inference is that this is the sole result of superior pass protection. That's not the story that my eyes tell me. Pressure due to one player is rarely enough to get him sacked. He beats that kind of pressure all the time.

There has always been an inherent bias in comparing the raw passing statistics of a team that plays half it's games in an open air stadium at the eastern end of Lake Erie to teams that play in Florida, Southern California, Arizona or in a dome. The home game weather has not been very good this year. At the very least it has added an extra degree of difficulty to deep shots and touch passes. Any metric that ignores that reality is flawed. I have read that Josh is the least sacked QB in the NFL when pressured. That agrees with what my eyes see and I do not know how any rating properly accounts for it. Certainly not the NFL passer rating formula which ignores sacks completely and penalizes throwaways. If the Bills get the #1 seed and beat the Tampa Bay Bradies in the process, I think Josh wins the MVP.

Wilkins is heatedly complaining to the Ref about something and Josh was pointing out that the game was all over but the bitching and moaning, the last refuge of losers. So, yes, I think you have it correct and most everyone else had it pegged wrong as a wave. Lots of videos of it on Twitter. One is from the Bills' official account.

Many Dolphin flaws Call them the Cetacea Team Dysplasia

I think there is a natural tendency that to elevate our guy you need to diminish all others in some way.

Either missed an audible or sight adjust.

Why. The flag was for the landing on him with full body weight and trying to crush him into the dirt, imo.

Clean hit but the landing was illegal.

He is not in the CFL. Only the exclusive negotiation rights were traded. I knew when the Colts drafted Eason and there were to be no preseason games that his time with them was up. I think he is hoping for a chance in the spring leagues. XFL, USFL whichever.

They are long in 2022 draft capital (1,1,2,2,3,4,4,5,5,6 before the Flacco trade) and have been better at using it over the last few years than say, the Dolphins. I expect the Jets to be a bigger challenge to the Bills in the division over the next 5 years than Miami or NE. From afar, they have a very 2018 Bills look to them to me. Bills 2018 road win over Vikings = Jets 2021 over Titans? Bring in vet QB mentor during rookie QB injury? They even have a huge blowout loss with their backup QB playing. It's big how Wilson finishes the year and if Saleh and Douglas prove to be a good match but I am not inclined to ridicule them at this time.

Maybe someone else pointed this out but it's worth remembering that the Bills had Nathan Peterman as their version of Mike White on the roster to start Josh's rookie year. When Josh had to miss games due to an elbow injury, we saw Derek Anderson and Matt Barkley added to the roster. Josh credits them with helping him to be better after his return from injury. Brandon Beane said it was his mistake not to have had Anderson in the room sooner and I thought the Jets were making the same kind of mistake to have Mike White as the sole backup to their rookie QB. Most are ripping the Jets move because that's what is usually the best reaction but if having a veteran QB in the room helps Zack Wilson be better to finish his rookie season, it's a great move.

Looks like Porter, #22, was the 2nd man in from the right sideline at the kick but was all the way to the right hash by the time Wycheck made his throw but was not very close to him. So, he looks like a plausible candidate.

St. Doug coached the Bills to a win in a meaningless week 17 game where Brady played the first half which put the Bills at a miraculous 9-7. Doug thought he could market that to land his next coaching gig for a bigger payday.

Bingo. It was first down and Wade panicked because Rob Johnson lost his shoe. No HC kicks that FG and leaves time on the clock.

I watched much of the Browns 2020 training camp video coverage (they showed team portions but only between the tackles) because a local kid was trying to earn a roster spot again, TE Stephen Carlson. I thought Keenum looked better than Baker in most practices but he had been with Stefanski before when they were with the Vikings. I thought he used the TE group well and that helped Carlson show enough make the 53. I suspect he'll get the ball out quicker than Baker tends to do.

Vivid Seats Fan Forecast Algorithim Projects................... "Vivid Seats ran an algorithm called the Fan Forecast that produces crowd projections for sporting events. It’s generally used for neutral site events but can be run for any matchup. When running the projection for tonight’s game between the Bills and Titans, the Fan Forecast came back with a projection that has 58 percent of the crowd supporting the Bills while only 42 percent of the fans at Nissan Stadium will be Titans fans." This will look very good on ESPN. If the Bills are up enough at the end to send the Titan's fans to an early exit, it will be a primetime spectacular scene of Bills' red, white and blue working their way down to the lower bowl.

Josh had said previously that the COVID lockdown experience was good for his off season training. It kept him and his cohorts isolated and focused on task. So, I'm with you, that's how I heard this answer this time too but there are some words missing that would make that clear. Hmmm. Interesting.

I like Rich Eisen in general, but his interview style is very good. Slow speech pattern without extra words. You got the sense that Rich was liking the substance of Josh's answers and Josh is soon to get a Rich Eisen Show hat. I suppose when he shows up on camera wearing that, much of Bills Mafia will want one of those too. On another note, let the man finish a meal in public without interruption, for crying out loud. Pick your spots people.

All the back story is essential to who he is and how his place in the league has evolved. If he got a scholarship to a power 5 school he might have never seen the field as a QB. His game might have been so raw compared to the others in the QB room that the coaches might have converted him to TE before he even got a chance to show much growth. Thus, Wyoming was the best fit. They gave him a chance to shine. The 2018 Bills were much like the 2015 Wyoming Cowboys. A great place for him to grow. His "bloom where you are planted" mantra serves him very well.

One could make a flow chart of possible outcomes for plays where a QB faces pressure. From disastrously bad to fantastically good. My sense is that Josh has developed his game to the point where he has skewed the outcomes toward the good end in a big way. I would like to see the analytics applied to that. injury bad throw pick 6 strip sack fumble lost int that hurts sack with big loss int that is punt-like on 3rd or 4th down sack minor loss escape throw away escape-complete pass or scramble positive run escape-extend-big play escape-extend- TD!
