The Wiz

To me, it reminds me the quick decline of Douglas. He got here and was told to just do whatever and he did well. Then a year into the system his play completely dropped off because he was playing within the system and not his strengths. Why we are forcing players into playing a certain way instead of playing to their strengths is beyond me. Two down, one to go. Better example would be, if it were your business and you needed a replacement, and you could hire a former employee that knows how your business runs (but his work was subpar when asked to step up and would routinely call in) vs someone with no clue, what would you do?

It's been an hour since this news broke. is he on IR yet?

I said in the "around the league" thread, if you can bet money on it, someone is on the take. Everyone always says, it's too easy to find out if someone is shaving points or calling the game unfair or x, y and z. But for some reason, it seems to happen a lot.

Now you need to ask why he doesn't play possum more.

More worried about the latter

you know the hail mary will come out and the ref will already throw the flag before it reaches it's apex for DPI.

I 100% buy into it. If you can bet on a game, someone is going to be on the take.

Why is Fox showing this picture as a defensive stand when the ball has crossed the goaline?

Well, McD said it himself, the defense is meant to dare teams to pass the ball so they are taking advantage of it. What a guy to help out the other teams offense!

https://www.nfl.com/news/rivalries-uniforms-revealed-unique-jerseys-afc-east-nfc-west What I'm not sure about is it they can be used as away uniforms also but I'm assuming the bills will want to use them at home to promote sales.

Well it's a 3 year thing so.....

I wouldn't be surprised if he had a 158.3 rating when targeting White.

"Best i can do is average"

Both issues are the same problem. The players we have at skill positions aren't good enough to overcome their lack of elite talent. Having "average to better than good" is the status quo for this team other than Allen.

I don't disagree. I do disagree on what was called and what wasn't called most of the night. They threw us a bone late when they called that PI for the cook pass on the sideline. Our defense was getting held and dragged down from behind all night and they didn't have a single offensive line penalty. Somehow, I have trouble thinking that our awesome oline committed 3 holding calls and they had none.

Yea, if your offenses job is to protect the defense when you do nothing but draft defensive players that amount to "starters" in the NFL, you can still blame the HC and even more so, the GM, for not getting the right players.

Looked like a hook and sinker.

They really didn't though. The 10 penalties in the 1st half killed every drive that the bills were moving the ball.

Blaming a uniform is probably outside the top 10 of "reasons we lost"

Not as bad as the secondary without Dorian Strong.

As much as I hate to blame the refs, they controlled the hell out of this game. I give them about 40% of the blame though. The other 60% goes to the offense being clueless on what to do for 3 qtrs of the game.

had to make sure we ended the game on a holding call. Thanks Ed.

he would have made that from 80, that was a boot.
