Did you see the KC game? Josh was rolling to his right and I said to myself "Josh is the deadliest QB rolling to his right. Worst that happens is a throw OB." Then he threw a horrible pick.
That wasn’t a designed rollout. He was flushed out of the pocket and threw against the grain. You wouldn’t do that on a designed rollout.

Like most of the posters here, I hate, hate, HATE the WR screen pass. Especially running it over and over against a D playing man press (KC). When was the last time we ran a “traditional” screen (OL leaks out after pretending to pass block, RB leaks out and has a couple of blockers in front of him when he gets the ball)? Cincinnati ran a couple of nice screens against the Colts. Is it because our OL isn’t athletic? I thought Morse and Brown were athletic enough to get out on in front on a screen. (Shout out to Brown, whose play seems to be much improved).
One more rant. Just like Fran Stalinovskovichdavidovitshky is the deadliest woman in the world with a dodgeball, Josh Allen is the deadliest QB in the NFL rolling to his right. Why not have a couple of designed rollouts? Worst that happens is a throw OB if nobody’s open.

Great weekend. One thing from this game is that Hill should be MVP. Fins O is utterly average without him.

If I had to pick a Billsy play from yesterday, it would be Murray taking three steps and then dropping the ball for no apparent reason, somewhat tainting a truly miraculous play from Allen.

This has nothing to do with NYC producers disliking Allen because he plays in Buffalo.
Allen has always been treated poorly by the media because he had the audacity to be drafted ahead of Lamar Jackson, which idiots view as an act of overt racism. Kirk Cousins gets the same treatment because he unseated RG3. Let's be honest with what is happening here.
This is 100% wrong. No one - NO ONE - thought Jackson should go ahead of Allen. The bias stems from all of the experts who predicted Allen would bust because he wasn't accurate in college. Many - not all - won't get off that train.

I started this thread to make a point, probably not very articulately, that the refs have way to much say so in the outcome of games and given the amount of money now bet on NFL games that can be very dangerous indeed.
Can their influence be diminished? I think it could. Eliminate ticky tack calls on PI, defensive holding and illegal contact, reduce the severity of certain penalties, be more consistent as to what offensive holding is, etc. Not sure there is the will to get this done as long as the money keeps rolling in.

I’m hoping for a Jim Lee Howell situation redux. First step is to see if Brady is the real deal as OC. Hopefully, we’ll know by the end of the season. Second, hire a young aggressive DC who won’t play a soft zone at the end of one score games. McDermott stays as HC.
Who is Jim Lee Howell? He was NY Giants HC during the late 50’s. His DC was Tom Landry and his OC was Vince Lombardi!

**** you Amazon and your ever buffering mother****ing streaming service. Can’t wait for the game on Peacock.

Few notes:
1. Eugene and Medford Oregon moved off from showing the Chargers at New England on the FOX Early slate, as originally planned, to show Denver at Houston. They usually cowtown for Herbert, but they changed their minds since the Chargers suck this year.
2. Hawaii switched from Detroit at New Orleans to Miami at Washington on the FOX Early slate since they like to cowtown for Tua, who went to high school in Ewa Beach.
3. Good week if you're in an all-red area, like I am, since you get the three best games: Denver at Houston, Detroit at New Orleans, and San Francisco at Philadelphia.
4. Sorry to fans in the Tampa Bay area (@machine gun kelly, @st pete gogolak, who else?) who get to be blacked out from the best game of the week (SF at Philly on FOX) since Tampa Bay is enforcing a blackout to show their home game vs. Carolina exclusively. Really exciting. The solution is Sunday Ticket.
5. With the way the Bills have been playing, I am glad to be taking a week off from them. Although, to be fair, last week was an exciting, though disappointing, game.
Wow. That sucks.

If anyone other than OP agrees with this, you should let him know. Punting from the 31 yard line with a 10 point lead would be the worst “Preposterous Punt” (credit to Greg Easterbrook) in Bills’ history. Worse than Gregg Williams punting from Pats’ 30 yard line way back when.

Trading Justin Jefferson pick for Diggs
Please. Philly selects Jefferson and instead of Diggs we get Justin Reagor. Or do you have a crystal ball come draft day?

I think we need a young Alec Baldwin to come into the locker room to give his Glengarry Glenn Ross speech. Always Be Closing!!!

KC game I was all for going for 2. You win or lose in regulation and force Bills D to actually play defense if you don’t convert. Different situation with Philly. If you’re successful on the 2, plenty of time for Philly to march down field for the win. Making it a 3 point game, makes Philly play conservative and settle for FG attempt.
-
Want to be fair. D had big stop last year to win KC game. Other than that, has D made a late stop to win a game (I guess you can include NYG game this year but what a cluster bleep that was)? Honest question.

If I had to guess, I think that catch and run by tyreek hill in the 13 seconds game (right before the final Davis TD) has given McDoormat PTSD. Ever since then he is so terrified of giving up a long TD that he concedes yards at the ends of close games to the point where he's willing to give up a field goal attempt and take his chances. Granted, yesterday's kick was borderline miraculous, but it still shouldn't have gotten to that point.
Bingo! Agree 100%. McDermott is scared to death of giving up the big play at the end of tight games and I really believe it goes back to the Hill TD.
-
So, the consensus is that the play is unstoppable and if the Eagles are in 3rd and 1 or 4th and 1 you just concede the yard or the TD?
-
Can anyone put the Brown and K Allen plays up together? Interested to do a side by side comparison.

I laughed out loud when I saw Taron Johnson on the field for the Tush Push TD, all 170 pounds of him.
You’ve got 8 DL. Put them on the field. At least make the Eagles do something other than push the ball up the middle.
I don’t blame McDermott. Not a single HC does anything other than concede a first down or TD to the Eagles.

I shouldn’t have said “clutch”. Posters who have indicated you can’t have the most clutch kick in the regular season are 100% right. Has to be playoffs or Super Bowl. How about “most difficult”? Hitting a 59 yard FG on grass in the rain is nuts.
-
Oh vey! Posters fondly remembering the Dick Jauron era (even a little bit)! Jauron wasn’t the worst Bills’ HC of all time but I hated him more than any of the others. Offense wasn’t good. Defense wasn’t good. Special teams were fantastic (thanks Bobby April!). Ultra conservative, good enough to eke out a few wins against bad teams and get absolutely hammered by good teams. No thanks.

I’m as pessimistic as any Bills fan but I’m thinking there is no way this guy is hitting a 59 yard FG in the rain and wind on grass. I think the consensus is that Vinitari’s 45 yard FG in the snow to send the “tuck” game into OT is the greatest, most difficult clutch FG in history. After yesterday, it’s in second place.

Second miss was huge. Maybe the turning point. He makes it and it’s 20 - 7, with the Bills looking dominant. Eagles immediately move down the field for a touchdown and now it’s a brand new game.

Mediocre Hurts is #1 in odds right now. Buddy is going to tush push his way to MVP.
Is that the deal now? Give the MVP to the QB on the team with the best record? Thought Hurts was generally awful last night, processing so slowly I thought he might be concussed.

It sucks, but I would think they won't do anything about it since nothing has been done by now
Tend to agree. One thing that may force changes is a ref being caught fixing games for cash. It happened with an NBA ref. It very well could happen in the NFL. Even if it does, 50/50 whether they take any real steps to solve the problem.
