  1. And in 2018 it was “He’s not accurate”. Just a week or two ago it was “He can’t win close come from behind games”. He’s been busting these myths ever since he got into the NFL.
  2. You know things are going well when there are multiple “appreciation” threads.
  3. It’s an anomaly and they’ll get it straightened out. Whats scary for the rest of the NFL is that the offense hasn’t even played it’s best football yet.
  4. McKenzie tripped on that play. He went to plant his foot to try to stop and receive the ball and as he was attempting to plant his left foot he tripped up. It threw his body out of wack of what otherwise would have been a simple catch for him.
  5. All the talk on the defensive side is about Von Miller and rightfully so, he without doubt has brought an extra edge and for this particular game he was the "closer" that we all envisioned and hoped for him to be. But what is not talked about in my view nearly enough is the pickup of Daquan, Settle and Phillips. These guys have completely changed the complexity of this defense, we are now one of the best run stuffing teams in the league and as you noted a lot of it is with light boxes. It allows the defense so much more flexibility to run the sort of nickel base defense that they want to run.
  6. Chiefs like to blitz and play man to man. I think they do less of that this week. Either way, I think the Bills will explode offensively.
  7. I mentioned that we were looking better yesterday when I posted the injury report and some poster snipped and complained that he didn’t see it that way.🙄
  8. Wow! What an absurd movement in the line. That’s crazy, everyone and their mothers must have been taking the Bills. No doubt that the Bills are the team that the public believes is the best in the NFL.
  9. Rosen to Watkins What could have been….
  10. It’s not guaranteed and probably could be restructured. If he could be had for a third rounder and he helped this team win a SuperBowl, a one year rental to possibly help win it all for a third rounder would be worth it.
  11. I don't think he made a big difference in this game. The Steelers saw that the 5-10 yard passes to the boundary near the sidelines was there for the taking because of how far off the DB's were playing off the receiver. The strategy was to not give them explosive plays, and nothing up the middle and to their credit they recognized that vulnerability early on. The Bills were for the most part ok giving up those plays until they got to the red zone at which point they clamped it down.
  12. I was just practicing my scottylaw impersonation.
  13. Gabe Davis isn’t good enough to be our #2 WR
  14. Edmunds with a hamstring? Hope it’s precautionary
  15. I hate to see families get broken up. Kids being involved at the age they are is tough and wouldn’t wish it on anyone. I think Tom loves the game and everything that surrounds it so much that he just couldn’t let go and it is coming at the expense of his family. He truly is a one of a kind, no player could match his mentality and even though it helped him propel his career there wasn’t enough room for much else.
  16. I agree, they are going to have to mix it up and disguise looks and formations, switch up snap counts all sorts of things but at the end of the day they have to to be able to run the ball some with their RB's with some sort of level of success. Have to find a way to get the opposing teams linemen to not just fire off and push the O line back into the backfield.
  17. This is a real problem fand is the only true weakness on this team but a potentially costly one. I have very little confidence that on short yardage situations that the team can get the push that it needs to consistently get first downs running the ball with their RB's. They either have to somehow get this fixed during the course of the year or look at alternative ways to get the yards needed. Having Allen does afford a lot of other viable alternatives but having your meats and potatoes approach of smashing it ahead for a yard or two should be your #1 option and without that option it can create problems. I'm certain in the offseason the Bills will draft a couple O-linemen in the early to early mid round picks but have to figure out a way around it for this year.
  18. I see lots of people arbitrarily wanting White to start later on. He should play when he's ready, you can put him on a snap count and I think that would make sense so that his body gets used to actual football movements but there is no reason not to play him if he's ready.
