  1. Suppose when he said 3rd Quarter he could've meant the start of it, ie: halftime. In which case we would've won 2. Still, i wish comedians & announcers would move away from the low hanging fruit of our 4 Superbowl losses. I mean its been like 25-30 years now
  2. Seattle's been dealing with injuries all season. Hasn't seemed to slow them down at all. Rus is playing lights out. So is Tyler Lockett & DK Metcalf. If Rus is required to throw the ball more, that just means he'll air it out more & attack our defense all over the field. When we drop back & cheat to coverage, Rus will gash teams on the ground with opportune scrambles. Its gonna be our hardest game of the season & we've already had a bunch of those. I had been looking forward to this matchup the past couple years, but after seeing how our defense has played, i'm not looking forward to it at all lol. Obviously i'll be rooting for us & hoping we win. But with how our offense has slowed down & our defense exploited, whether it be vs the pass 1 week or the run another.... I just don't have a great feeling about this game. But GO BILLS!!!!
  3. ah that makes sense then. Kinda sucks if thats the case. Would've been cooler had it been the real Sheik & not ran by his managers. appreciate the info
  4. Just saw this online. Anyone know what this is about? I mean i know we're easy to love & all that. Just surprised this ex wrestler from Tehran is tweeting out some love to us. Didn't know where else to post this, but if anyone knows more about it, i'd appreciate learning about it
  5. There are NextGen stats that show separation & league average is 2.7 yards. Gabriel Davis leads the way with 3.8 Cole Beasley is next with 3.6 Stephon Diggs has 2.8 John Brown has 2.8 So all our wrs are above the league average or average.

  6. yep... was looking like your typical Bills loss vs New England. Play them hard & tough & almost win. That Zimmer play is what we needed & finally someone on D made a play. Give him 9 game balls. Since the last time we beat the Pats at home was in 2011
  7. i dont think anyone is pretending that. Its been well discussed that our D is underachieving & has major issues. But the flipside to ur statement is that we havent ran the ball well at all this year & ran all over New England too.
  8. Game ball goes to Justin Zimmer. Without that play we lose the game this week. Dude should be heralded as a hero this week
  9. Naturally Poe & Worley both are ex Panthers. Its like they're the only guys we look at lol. But yeah i'd agree totally with everything you said. Can't hurt to see whats there... our defense has been that bad. We should be looking for help anywhere we can find it.
  10. He's not the greatest but he'd be a welcomed addition to 1 of our weakest position groups on the roster. If we have ANY hope at all this year at making a run, Beane needs to do something.
  11. I'm thankful it didn't happen to me, because i wouldn't be able to handle it. I was in the running for $100k on Draftkings this weekend & ended up with $3k. Not bad for a $3 contest. But I was still hoping for more obviously haha. Ive only played on DK for a few weeks & only play 1 or 2 small contests a week. The contests this guy played, people submit like 30-40 entries & often have a program compute & enter their lineups for them. I think the article even said he submitted 43 lineups this week. I'd feel more bad for the person who just played 1 contest versus people like him that play 40, 50, 100 contests. Theyre like the poker shark equivalents of Fantasy Football. Just glad it wasnt me (because it would happen to me) with my luck haha
  12. I hope we need to fear Tua. I lost Dak in my fantasy league. Was 5-0 & had to roll with Kirk Cousins last week & got my 1st loss by 5 pts. I picked up Tua on the waiver wire as my hail mary pickup. I desperately need him to be good haha. I was shocked Miami decided to bench Fitz for Tua tho. I mean i get it, he's the qb of the future & this was their bye week. But Miami's season is going better than many suspected... with chances of making the playoffs, largely based on the solid play of Fitz & what do u do? U bench him in favor of the unproven rookie. Their oline isnt the best & Tua has to build chemistry with his wr's. Devante Parker has been dealing with injuries. It just doesn't seem like a wise move for the short term. Long term yeah for sure. But if i were GM i would've let Tua continue to learn behind FItz & put him in only due to Fitz's play degrading or the season being lost. What if Tua comes in, has a bad game & then all the fans/media 2nd guess that qb switch? Whats that gonna do for his confidence & that team? Of course they could feel totally confident in Tua from what they see at practice too, as theyre more privy to how he looks than us. Guess we're about to find out.... ITS TUA TIME
  13. especially after they restructured his contract & lowered his cap hit from $7.16 M to $5.73 I'll take him on a more team friendly deal. If only he played for Carolina
  14. Anthony Barr is out for the season, Kendricks or a sack of potatoes would help our LB crew tho
  15. The time for us to retool our roster was during the offseason. We as fans would love for us to fix some of the areas that need improving, but these issues should've been looked at prior to the season starting & for some reason weren't. Star opting out couldn't have been foreseen, EJ Gaines too for that matter. But they had to know injuries would be an issue & that our depth was lacking at LB & DB & that we needed a big guy on the line to eat up space. I've been a Murphy hater since day 1, we could've chosen to go another direction & used that cap space on someone else. Trying to make a trade now to bring someone in will result in an overpayment if it can even be done at all. And then theres the time it takes to get him up to speed & all that. JJ Watt btw i wouldn't want to bring in. His body is done & his salary is too high. If we could get him for cheap with Houston retaining salary, i suppose he'd be an upgrade over what we have now, but only due to how bad we're playing. We need a few players brought in at this point
  16. I've been calling the WFT the WTF's. Its slowly catching on. To me the WTF moniker just makes too much sense. They're really that bad WTF
  17. Threads & suggestions like this blueprint thing were frequent after losses to New England. Its just that we heard of this blueprint to stop Tom Brady for 20 years. Yes the way to beat KC is to force them to run. Its also important to have a good running game ourselves to control the clock & limit their opportunities. Only reason why KC ran so much is because we couldn't stop it, not because we forced them to. KC could've done whatever they wanted to us today & decided to roll with the ground game bcuz of A. the conditions & B. we couldn't stop *****, as they were gashing us for 7-9 yards a pop.
  18. seeing a lot of "update" tweets that have been put out previously 40+ minutes ago from other posters. 1 sure fire sign that the Bills BellStakes are over.
  19. Yep just said it a few minutes ago. Been watching his podcast on YT
  20. Could also be that they were dropping him off or the flight was unrelated to Bell all together. Pat McAfee just said that there were reports that Bell was spotted at Duffs here earlier. Who knows whats true or not though lol
  21. Yeah he lives and trains there https://www.orlandosentinel.com/sports/miami-dolphins/fl-sp-dolphins-leveon-bell-kelly-column-20201015-xihlfa2ebvg7fbemoa6zhedrni-story.html Bell already calls South Florida home, living and training here in the offseason, and sources told the South Florida Sun Sentinel he’s open to considering the Dolphins (2-3) if “the money, and situation is right.”
  22. I wouldnt considering he's on IR with an Achilles injury https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/raiders-place-richie-incognito-on-ir-with-achilles-injury/ar-BB19me0H But yeah some help is needed for sure
  23. The Pegula Jet is on the way to Florida. Could very well be going to see Bell https://flightaware.com/live/flight/XSR697
