They stopped him more often than not........they just had a bunch of plays that stand out and on most of those they missed tackles they gotta' make. That 4th down conversion was unbelievable. He's good but when a 340# DT has him held up WHOEVER shows up next has to be able to tackle him. Defense was very good today but tackling could have been better for sure. Saquon Barkley isn't going to be any easier to bring down.

Nobody?

@Logic why do these companies keep making new fast food chicken sandwich options? I'm sure an informal poll at any time over the past 10 years would have indicated that people were satisfied with the current amount! Bring on the 17 or 18 game NFL season and more raunchy chicken sandwiches...........mofos can't get enough!

Don't feel bad for long time Raiders fans.........they've won SB's and a lot of games from the 60's until the 1990's. They were also in a SB 7 years AFTER the Bills last won a playoff game. Charity starts at home.

Every year at this time we get these "for the first time in many years I am excited" posts from people who think that since THEY are finally excited it finally REALLY means something!

It's parity and my Yankees have had 27 straight winning seasons............MLB is a parody of parity..........our Bills aren't parity challenged they've just been bad at football stuff.

I'd have no problem with them bringing him to Buffalo........Josh Allen NEEDS playmakers to elevate his game IMO........... but IMO AB wasn't coming here for anything close to market value and vastly overpaying creates it's own disincentive(I still think the ridiculous deal the Pegs gave Rex contributed to his disinterest in putting in the effort at a time when he needed a push.......which is kinda' where AB seems to be at as a player).

Man it went from we "dodged a bullet" to we "caught a bullet" pretty quick around here.

This. A blowout win. Like the stunning 2011 opening day beat down in Arrowhead. The Jets are a combustible situation........take it to them and trigger an implosion.

How did Urban Meyer get into this discussion?

So not true. Consistent success in the NFL begins with a superstar QB. The closest thing to what you are talking about are the Patriots but they have the greatest QB ever and the greatest HC ever. Everybody else operates under the normal rules. And all of the favorites this year.........as usual........are star studded teams. Teams need to play well together but also have star players because it's a matchup league and difference makers MAKE THE DIFFERENCE.

Yeah it's not good news in any way for the Bills that this is happening. I remember back in the day when this board loved to mock Randy Moss and the Vikings and Raiders for drafting and/trading for him. I also remember he and the Patriots scoring 8 straight TD's in a night game at Buffalo and the Pats going 16-0 after they traded a ham sandwich for him. AB is a great, game changing football player...........it was better that he was in Gruden's sh*t show rather than on some contender singing for his supper on a non-guaranteed deal.

And so was Beane. He was offering a lot more in trade than Oakland was.........Brown nixed the deal. Now Brown will probably end up getting traded along with a draft pick or two before the Oct 29th trade deadline to a team with a lot of cap space to burn.

I like John Brown but in his prime Marvin Harrison was a 100 catch 1400 yard 12-13 TD WR. I expect he will end up between 50-75 catches and 600-1,000 yards..........any more than that would be surprising.

He's still busy......you gotta' shake a lotta' snakes to afford a Met Life PSL

He's gone before they pay that $7M+ roster bonus next winter though, right? Drafting RB's early and paying RB's a big second deal continues to be bad business..............the problem is that everyone knows it and subsequently the supply is starting to dry up. The NFL almost needs to create a base pay scale for carrying the football...........you tote it 200 times you get paid like a bell cow back even if you are a rookie on a one year deal. Otherwise dudes like Devin Singletary are going to continue to be the best RB's in certain drafts.

There is no new period.........McCoy hasn't been an above average producing player when he touches the ball the past two seasons. This is still just the second decade of mediocrity of the 2000's until the team actually becomes a contender. Case in point: the last 3 regimes have all been 15-17 after two seasons. Hopefully this year they change their mediocre ways but the McCoy move doesn't represent anything pivotal, IMO.

It's also not a 10 year deal $400M deal..........which is basically what it looked like we would be seeing given to franchise QB's 5 years ago. Shorter terms.........high guarantees because QB isn't a position where effort drops off with the payday........$100M+ is a lot but it's not like giving it to a defensive player whose game is so heavily tied to max effort. He is basically locked in for about as long as you'd expect the leash from Kroenke to be on the McVay regime now that they have made it to a SB.

So beat Drew Brees on road to win conference title and lost to Tom Brady in SB = crap(p)s the bed in playoffs? Again.......hope Josh Allen craps the bed like that in his third season. You can "not" think he's the best QB in the NFL and still admit he's had a very impressive start to his career.

Still can't believe Auburn kicked him out for this..........clearly self defense.

Man.........he had 28 TD and 7 interceptions and went 11-4 in his second year..........I hope Josh Allen develops that slow.

PSA Battered "anything" syndrome is actually the acceptance of bad things happening to you(like losing or being beaten by your spouse, for example) and the belief that you don't DESERVE better. That's how the BBFS term came about........from people making excuses and accepting losing...........not the way some of you mis-use it. What you guys are describing is more like "Bills Bi-Polar Disorder" or something.

You're just wrong about that. DeAndre Hopkins ring a bell? Who was his QB before Watson arrived? Josh Gordon had breakout season and one of the best seasons ever by a WR with a bunch of scrub QB's. Stud WR's can excel even with bad quarterbacking. Juju had 1400+ yards last year and nearly 1,000 starting less than half the games in his rookie year. He has had 97 yard TD's in both of his two seasons...........he's by no means the product of some surgical passer.........he's REALLY good and yes he would have broken out here as well. But again.......if you don't think a stud WR can excel without good QB'ing you just aren't aware of the facts.

So like 28th best WR/TE corps but Allen should elevate them to middle of the league? I believe in Allen's ability to develop long term but this is a guy who completed 52% of his passes last year..........they are asking for a huge personal leap from him, IMO. And to answer your last question it's definitely the players who aren't imposing. In 12 combined NFL seasons Beasley and Brown have totaled just 3 seasons over 700 yards............we love them because they are ours and right now we envision getting the "best" versions of them but these are seasoned NFL vets who really haven't done much............and they are the point men for your receiving corps. Robert Foster is the wildcard..........if he plays to his potential he is special...........but it appears that he is either a head case or going to be a constant injury concern.........the Bills aren't really saying. Between 4 years at Bama and one year in the NFL he's played well for 2 months. He's like our version of Martavis Bryant.......except instead of a drug problem he may have something else that weighs him down just when it looks like he's ready to turn into a stud.

I'm telling you........in practice Ray Ray looked like he was the best player on the field. I saw it myself. I understand why people were giving him so much credit but I wasn't buying it until I saw what he did in a game. He is an exception to your belief that the preseason games aren't weighted heavily by the coaching staff............Ray Ray was just a different player when it started getting violent..........as we're McKenzie and Duke.......just that they were more comfortable that way. I'm not saying Ray Ray is soft but the physicality diminished him greatly while it helped Duke and McKenzie show what they were lacking in the practice setting. I predict Ray Ray will wear out his welcome with a big drop or 2 in a game and find his Way Way back to the Bills practice squad this season. He's an awesome practice player.
