OMG he caught a ball!!!!

Dawson Knox with the $10 million play

Watching Coleman on these routes, its like he forgets he's supposed to catch the ball. He'll just swat at a pass or watch it in the air, never seems to really make an attempt to catch it tho. I do heavily criticize Brady's usage of him tho & the routes but players have to be able to ball too. And Coleman hasnt showed with any consistency that he can.

Guess Beane couldn't make the call while he's sitting on his hands. I'd like to think that we didn't go after Shaheed because someone better is coming our way. But that feels like fools gold at this point. sigh I know we have Josh Allen & all, but i wish we had a little bit more of a sense of urgency to actually make a real run at a title. I swear to the Gods that if we waste the career of this guy, it'll be a stain on this entire organization, that'll linger for the rest of our lives. I know if i were GM, i wouldn't rest comfortably knowing we have Josh. I'd do whatever i could to surround him with a playmaker or 2. Now Hoecht is gone. Are there any old Carolina players out there that we havent tried yet?

Yeah Dowdle was gashing us. Had a 6.8 yard avg & was their best player on offense & they just sit him. Part of it was game script of course but it reminded me of how we've been under-utilizing Cook. But our run D didn't exactly stop him out there. Regardless with the games ahead, we'll have a pretty good idea of what we have when we're thru. Hoping for the best. And for the day Ed Oliver can finally stay healthy

it was a good game today but idk if i'd call that Carolina team an actual team, not with Andy Dalton at the helm in his 1st game this year. I'm not taking anything away from how the D played, but Dalton isnt the test, its the appetizer. Next week is the Chiefs, lets see how our D looks versus them.

i remember earlier this season, in the 1st couple games, we ran some of those Johnson wheel routes & passes to the flat & he simply couldnt catch the ball. Ever since i havent seen them try to run those plays at all. Johnson's receiving stats so far this season: 2 catches on 7 targets for 19 total yards. Thats just not good enough.

Not utilizing Cook enough is 1 of the big constants within our losses. Everyone says he's 1 of our most dynamic players, 1 of the elite runners in the League. We should be feeding Cook like the Falcons fed Robinson. Line up Cook all over the field, so he can look for mismatches & keep the D off-balance. Something other than the bench please.

fire McDermott. The penalties & lack of being prepared & focused was unacceptable. An embarrassing performance here at home. We played down to our competition & helped to beat ourselves with our mistakes. And the Pats capitalized. Burn the white jerseys & never wear them again!

Must be nice to have a #1 wr on your offense. This 1 game by Diggs isn't the season, but i'm sure Josh would like some separation by his wr's. Maybe he wouldnt have to try to make the perfect throw & force it in there so often.

I would've rather paid DK that money than Greg Rousseau. Even tho i think we still need help on the Dline, Rousseau just doesnt make an impact to me. DK Metcalf definitely would its a great 'what if' to think about

if you do wear these, wear brand new ones. The old ones you own likely wont be as white 🤣

i agree but there is 1 big crucial difference between that Pats team & this BILLS one: they got to the championship games where we havent. If we were a dynasty like the Pats, the team would have earned everyone's benefit of the doubt, because they have that Lombardi to prove it. But when you're on year 9 with the same coach & you're still trying to climb up that hill, people want to see improvement in the areas that have historically been an issue. Otherwise its a bit like doing the same thing over & over again expecting a different result. Me personally: i dont think there's much to take from last nights game. Divisional games are always tougher, but the D remains an area of concern with the D-Line play & secondary. If we're not better there come playoff time, it will be an issue once again that ends our season & its on to year 10.

I've never gotten over Duke Williams 🤣

Yeah. I wonder about Beane & if he prefers culture over talent a bit too much. It was just a random thought i had while thinking about some of our drafting issues. I wonder if we've passed on some players who can just flat out play because their testing scores were too low or they weren't perceived to be 'great culture' guys. Whatever the reason might be that's not solely about what they can do on the field. We could be limiting our talent pool to pick from if that were the case. Like i said, random thoughts, not well thought out haha.
