I know it won’t happen, but my God, can we use the last four games to at least experiment a little with the D? Use Elam in some man coverage. Play a 4 -3 with Williams on the field and TJ as free safety, play a 3 - 4 with Carter on the nose and TJ as fourth backer. Blitz like a maniac one game. Play Bishop. Maybe there is not enough talent on the D to win a championship. That’s a real possibility. But you are not - you are never - winning a championship playing soft zone with a porous run D and a substandard pass rush.

Rapp and Hamlin 26 total tackles. The ENTIRE defensive line 18. Fellas, I think that’s the story right there.

As Linus may have said, “of all Jameis Winston games, that was the most Jameis Winstoniest.”

I know, I know, but still. If the PFF rankings are accurate, the Bills should be 0 - 12 this year. Josh Allen - 6th ranked QB. Cool. Unrelated. I'm not knowledgeable enough to know why the Bills were getting gashed up the middle so badly. Scheme? DTs? Bernard? Is that something that has to wait until the All-22's come out? Kinda hoping Carter comes back and solidifies the middle a bit.

My point? When you’re a bad team (like the Colts) there aren’t any “easy” games.

You mean like the easy game against the Pats?

It’s too bad that there is not a “fair” way to incorporate sacks into QB rating. The sacks Tua took and the passes he missed in the first half were killers.

Browns will be “desperate!”

I only watched the first half but it’s hilarious Tua has a 117 passer rating in a game that he absolutely stunk.

Does Storm Duck have a brother who plays in the secondary? Can Miami sign Rachad Wildgoose? Miami can field a secondary of Duck, Duck, ‘Goose!

An NFL team can’t be any more healthy than this going into week 13. Wouldn’t opposing team know something is up? Bills never line up in an I on a QB sneak. Can you pull that play off in tush push formation?

So their season wasn’t on the line on Sunday? If they lose, at worst they are two games out of division lead with a bunch of inter-division games left. They’ll play Purdy if he’s healthy enough to play. If he’s not, they won’t.

Tannenbaum’s a clown (he would match well with Rex). Last year on Get Up he predicted Prescott would throw for 400 yards and the Cowboys would rout the Bills. Oops 😬!

Rather than start a new “kicker” topic, how about this? The Curse of making game tying or game winning 59 yard FG’s against the Bills. Both Elliot and Fairburn have gone in the toilet since making their kicks against the Bills.

I must be missing something. How can a FA who leaves to go to another team have a dead cap hit?

I’m just going to say it again. No one - NO ONE - is that stupid. Bills should have made Schwartz HC instead of that clown who went out and destroyed what was a really, really good D under Schwartz. That’s why I always wonder about folks who call for McDermott to be canned (obviously less of that lately). If you look at Pegula’s hiring Ryan and his entire history with the Sabres, odds are he just got very lucky with McDermott and Beane.

Man, how valuable is Cooper going to be rest of the season and the playoffs?

I think this is more fun if it is expanded to Bills’ entire history. OC - Ted Marchibroda. DC - Wade Phillips or Joel Collier.

Nobody’s this stupid.

👍 Just go back to the KC game. If you had 100% confidence your kicker would drill a 51 yarder to go up 16 - 7, would you have gone for it on 4th and 3 from the 34? Maybe, maybe not but it feels like a lack of confidence in Bass is pushing that decision, especially after he missed the PAT.

I’m guessing you mean it helped the Giants a helluva lot more than it helped us.

13 - 4 as a #3 seed? That would be wild. I think they beat the 49’ers. Rams could be trap game. They will be underdogs at Detroit. If they need the last three games I think that they get them

We just played the NFC East LAST YEAR! Why would we play them again next year? Rotation should be NFC South (which would be sweet). What am I missing?

I went back and looked at Aubrey’s stats (didn’t break down dome v. outdoors). Folks are correct. He’s not automatic. He missed extra points last year and a few missed FG this year. The crazy stat is how good he is outside of 50 (20 out of 21 is insane). This thread is hypothetical because Cowboys aren’t going to give him up unless they receive a crazy offer and neither the Bills nor anybody else are going to make a crazy offer for a kicker.

Yeah, he slipped on the turf and hit the upright. He also nailed a 64 yard FG with room to spare.
