    Any thoughts on Dorian Williams about to be starting again?

    Most teams are losing players too. The Bucs, for instance, are down both starting OTs as I type this and just lost an edge rusher. The Seahawks played this week without both S Nick Emmanwori and CB Devin Witherspoon. Their fans have pages of discsusion about these injuries, but I bet most here didn't know anything about them. We just don't notice other teams' injuries unless they are QBs or high-profile stars so it feels like we are the only team with guys out.


    yep, the injury excuse is not an excuse unless it’s a franchise qb.  
     

    and even then, sometimes you beat an more talented  team in SB 25.

    Which is the first game we will lose this season?

    (You all will love this thread on victory Monday)

    Seeing how we well we are playing now, that we get a couple of defensive players back in few weeks and assuming that the young 'uns on defense gel by mid-season, I am having a really tough time seeing a loss on our schedule. But we all know how difficult it is to go unbeaten. Also, I dont want to jinx it. So if we assume there will be at least one loss this season, which game has your vote?

    Dolphins - naah

    Saints - no QB, still re-building

    Patriots* - Maybe if Vrabel does his thing for playing  tough in the trenches and this is his Superbowl

    Falcons - way too underpowered to slow us down

    Panthers - Naah

    Chiefs - they should have Rice back by this time so it is likely but I feel we are more balanced overall on Defense and can avoid the typical issues with their offense

    Dolphins - they will be thinking about next season at this time, so naah

    Buccaneers - a possible loss as they are a tough team and on a good day, can give us fits

    Texans - while good overall, it remains to be seen if CJ Stroud can recapture his rookie form. But I dont think they have the overall horses to stop us

    Steelers - Again, could be a tough game but Rodgers' arm would be hurting by this time

    Bengals - Maybe Burrow will be back by this time but he will be rusty and our Defense should be fully revved up by this time

    Patriots - see above

    Browns - good overall team but still looking for a QB. 

    Eagles - first real possibility of a loss with how tough that team is. But if we have the #1 seed locked up, many of our starters will be resting

    Jets - rrriigght

     

     

    So, in summary, I think our first loss could be to the Patriots, Bucs or Eagles.

     

    What do y'all think?

     

    Last Jets game.  We have all our backups in all game with the 1 seed.  I don't think we go backup against the Eagles even if we have the 1 seed at that point.  

    Ed Oliver hit on 3rd down last drive. Wow

    Oliver had a rediculous game, it overshadowed Bosa's good, but not great, game.  Our starting DL should be very good.  as the rookies come along, I think Sanders will be an above-average player this year with room to continue growing.  Would love a big run stopper, perhpas at the trade deadline, although any D weakness appears to be in the secondary.

    If he challenges the spot, and the refs let the call stand, you’d be sitting here screaming that he wasted a timeout that we could have used to keep time on the clock. 

     

    but the refs would NOT let the spot stand.  It was an incredibly poor spot, and with McD right there, he should have challanged it.  That was a terrible no challange by McD.  We needed that first down then, and worst case it's a timeout.  Instead, we rush a poor 3rd down play, get a false start, punt.

    This part I agree with. The only real thing that came out of Sunday night is we have a game lead on the Ravens and Chiefs with the tiebreaker over the Ravens. If the Bills do well enough to have a shot at the 1-seed, it'll likely come down to some form of a tiebreaker. 

     

    this puts us in a great spot for the 1 seed.  The Bills have the easiest schedule of the "big 3" of Buffalo, Balt and KC.  

    Keon haters….

    The jokes on the ravens tonight, had alexander not tripped up Keon the time would have probably expired before he reached the endzone.  

     

    unlikely, because he'd still be on his way to the endzone ;)

    For those saying he was crap for 3 quarters because of his yardage total - well watch the game again.  He was open and didn't get the ball several times during those 3 quarters and also our play calling was crap through 3 quarters as well.

     

    For example - 3rd and goal, Allen had Keon on the left for 6 when he beat his guy off his cut.  Allen threw short to his left instead and didn't see Keon and we settled for a FG.  

     

    Our offense didn't find a rhythm until the 4th quarter, and there were a lot of terrible 2nd and 3rd down calls that killed drives, caused 3 and outs, etc.  

     

    it's like Brady realized it was no longer preseason in the 4th quarter.  not sure why he kept calling runs up the middle routinely on 2nd and 3rd down against the Ravens D.

    Keon made two huge catches on 4th dow! Game over if Keon does not those plays.  Keon looks like a # 1 WR

     

    Keon had 10 targets in the 4th quarter.

     

    Keons post game conference he was very mature, focused, humble, and hungry.   Im very impressed with Keon.

     

    Dalton had a nice game.  He made several nice blocks.  It’s great to see him score.  Dalton made some tough catches.

     

     

     

    Dalton and Knox both played really well I thought.  And it was nice seeing Dalton look more like himself rather than the injured shell last year.

    Did the Bills win, or di the Ravens lose?

      Without the Ravens calling bizzare plays (running Flowers), we likely don't have the ability to come back given that our D was incapable of stopping Lamar or Henry on the ground, or even Lamar in the air.  On the flip side, we did a LOT of work to win that game and won all the battles we could.  End result: victory.  Interestingly during the dought years, and even after (13 seconds, last year KC), I feel like we came out on the Raven's end a lot.

    The man is about as veteran as you can get. He’s drilled tons of Game Winners, once held the record for longest Field Goal, has kicked in all kinds of weather. A 30 yarder is a walk in the park for a guy like that. 
     

    If the Bills do decide to keep him, what’s his distance particularly in bad weather games and can he kick for an entire season before fatigue sets in on his leg 

     

    yeah, I had more comfort there with Prater than the snapper either snapping too quikcly (thinking he needs to get it out pre clock expiring) or holder.  I mean, it's the Bills.  Hopefully we don't need him to kick too many FGs this year and he only is getting warmed up with EPs.

    The OP is right, spotting has been horrendous.  Not sure if this is league wide or not, but the one at the end of the game, even the ref in the booth was saying (in kind words) that the refs really messed up.  

     

    Also, MCD needed to challange that spot.  Almost cost us the game.  He was standing right there.  

     

     

    Is Our WR Corps Good?

    Keon looked like he did pre-injury, and was in the right place at the right time numerous times.  Great routes, great hands and ball concentration.  Palmar looked great for his first Bills game.  Still wish we had a downfield burner, perhaps Moore becomes that.  Would like to see more targets downfield early in the game to open everything up.

    I was shocked how smooth the whole game-winning FG was.  I was worried given how new Pratter was that by rushing onto the field and needing to kick prior to time expiring, the snap would come too early or late for Prater.  But everyone did fantastic there.
