Am I correct in understanding Josh’s condition is terminal?

Gregg Williams still available?

Maybe you’re missing what I’m saying. If Josh leads the team to two more TDs in the 2nd half as well yesterday and another field goal attempt, the Bills score at least 28, potentially 31, and are we even having this discussion? If Josh was concussed last Sunday as some are theorizing, wouldn’t he have been less sharp in the 1st half yesterday? The real problems are the Bills had trouble with the Jets pass rush and the WRs had trouble getting open against their secondary. I don’t buy the concussion theory.

Were you saying this after the first half yesterday? He had the boneheaded INT, but otherwise looked pretty sharp in the first half (Two TDs and put them in FG position in under a minute). Did the cobwebs just disappear for the first half?

No. Would you have suggested a concussion was affecting his play after the 1st half yesterday? He had the boneheaded INT in the 1st half yesterday, but otherwise looked pretty sharp (two TDs and led the team into FG range in less than a minute).

We only had nine possessions yesterday, two of which were shortened end of half scenarios. The defense has got to get off the field, so that we even have the ball. And then when we get the ball, gotta have better pass protection, WRs have to get open and make plays, and Josh has got to stop throwing boneheaded INTs. If just one of those things is better yesterday, we probably win the game.

Anyone know how much time Rousseau missed yesterday?

Now that we have Hines as the full-time PR and McKenzie is struggling to offer consistent production, I would be shocked if Shakir doesn’t start getting phased into the offense more and more. McD always slow plays it with his younger players in favor of the veterans, and plays the “long game” with all of the players.

Funny thing, he’s been perfect in our close wins. We have bigger problems that blaming the loss on Bass’ missed 55 yard FG, which is essentially a coin flip (which somehow we never seem to win either).

Hopefully Beane is looking for online help here, and incidentally reads your suggestion about improving the O Line.

The INTs are definitely some of Josh’s worst, although I remember much darker QB days than today. Aside from the INTs, the pass protection seemed to be non-existent today, WRs were struggling to get open, and he had just about a 14 minute stretch today when his Defense couldn’t get him the ball back. They all need to pick it up moving forward.

The guy came into the week the heavy favorite for league MVP, throws a couple boneheaded INTs, is under attack all day when he’s lucky enough to even have the ball. He’s going to rebound just fine. Did he look to have a lack of confidence in his two TD runs?

Anyone know how much time Rousseau needed to miss today? Aside from the other injuries, wondering how much that may have further contributed to our stopping the run issues.

I agree about J. Johnson looking like a liability, but Edmunds was literally all over the field once again today.

Injuries to the DEF finally starting to show. Jets dominated the time of possession, which limited our offensive chances. Turnovers by Josh didn’t help. Jets D was looking good, and Diggs seems to be the only dependable receiving option.

I’ll remember his silence after the last however many times we smacked his team around.

You do know we won the first half, right?

You beat me to it. Slick conditions and a guy’s first game back from an ACL injury sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Edmunds did have a pass defense and 16 tackles last week, 13 of which were solo. Does that count for anything?

Nope, Edmunds going to be expected to play two LB positions at the same time today.

A reminder of Land Clark and his crew’s officiating of Bills/Jags last year: https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/who-is-land-clark-and-what-is-going-on-with-his-officiating-crew-in-bills/article_1cd40a4e-3ffc-11ec-b6e2-4b1285676883.amp.html

I read the point of his tweet as being the Jets OL has problems that the Bills should be able to take advantage of.

And only have to change the last name on the locker 😂
