    Golfing?  You need to put the work in if you want this team to win bro.  You think your Hollywood or something?  

     

    Enjoy your game.  I never got into playing golf but for some strange reason I like watching it on TV.  It just seems chill or something.

    Yeh Samuel Clemens said it, golf screws up a nice walk (paraphrased) but Im playing with my son who is in to it so cant miss it and who am I kidding it's a late game, so Ill be back and turn it on... double punishment today.

    I'd guess the players CBA spells out the rules for disclosing injuries, but I don't think HIPAA rules would come into it

     

     

    Oh HIPPA definitely does, medical privacy is up to patient and would override any CBA... federal law.

    Speaking only of this game…

     

    We run the most amount of play action in the NFL and the Giants called our bluff the entire first half.

     

    The LB’s we’re not biting on the play-action at all (they weren’t even moving). Thats why the running attack was so successful when we finally ran it (when the linebackers aren’t crashing the gaps, you can run nearly at will).

     

    It was a scenario where the Giants were begging us to run the ball but Dorsey didn’t figure it out until the second half.

     

     

    And this is my concern with Dorsey's play calling... he needs to switch things up quicker, him and Josh need to be able to id quicker what the D is doing and counter in real time..

    I suggest you read your post because it has negativity and criticism expressed throughout it. Does that make you a "nabob?" 

     

    I mean all Bills fans are happy with the win. Hoping for the best. There will always be varying degrees of optimism and pessimism. That's not a bad thing. 

    Fair enough if you admit your lack of specificity and overall belief toward the team that it is declining is over the top.

    Your interpretation is not accurate Francis. I'll just leave it at that. 

    Just tired of overall nabobs of negativisms for the Bills... the book is out on the offense... are there issues with adjustments sure... teams with de

    cent pass rushing D lines play zone and clamp down down on the pass... Dorsey needs to find better solutions... running up the middle as boring as it is... was working.  Bills could use a back out of the backfield that can catch and run but with some of these hybrid linebackers even that may be tough.. overloading a zone... more screens... find a couple things that work and keep doing it til D wears down... adjustments are the name of the game and it looks like the Bills are working on figuring it out... til then it may be ugly but ill take the win and move on.

    Ok know it all and classless poster. If you say so it must be true. 

     

    Stop with the excuses they are getting old. Exactly what did I say in my post is inaccurate? You failed to address that. Instead you went to insults and condescending language. 

     

    Grow up! 

    Lol your post of the sky is falling is inaccurate... because your conclusions have no perspective... if this went on for say 3-4 games maybe Id begin to wonder... absolutisms over 1 game... really lol

    Was saying same thing to wife... I absolutely love football where everything was offsetting! 😆 

     

    Perfect socialist game.

     

    Hockey would have found the extra 2 minutes for roughing going to the Giants. /smdh...

    The offsetting crap is moronic... still a little shoving between little brother and big brother meh like I said in hockey you see this stuff face washing.. dumping guys at or after the whistle... if you could have a penalty box that'd be awesome!

    Maybe Dawkins too since he was sort of the one that started the whole thing.

    Hands to the face twice on one play; he should have been called for the first one, if not the second one also. 

    Dawkins was having his facemask grabbed... I get why he got upset... that being said Ive seen worse in hockey... done worse... meh kinda of enjoyed it.

    Agree with everything but your first sentence. The running back room is nothing special. Murray is just ok and pretty good as a back up RB. Cook is nothing special. Teams don't have to game plan for him. He's not a game changer and remains inconsistent. Some of that is due to the scheme and lack of putting him in the best situation to succeed. Bottom line is the Bills running game is nothing special or scary for opposing defenses to defend. Allen needs to be included in the conversation but he's not. That's really a big point of contention. Taking away Allen's legs certainly decreased the Bills chances to win. 

     

    Secondly, it's the oline. How good are they? They seem improved from last year but that's not saying much. The jury is out on whether they are good or good enough. Brown is still a liability, Torrence is still young and learning, and the others are decent to good. They have no elite pieces on the line. The last couple of games Allen has been pressured often. Seems like the promising oline start is showing some of its weaknesses. 

     

    In a nutshell, the Bills have Allen and Diggs offensively. Everyone else is just a dime a dozen. Can be interchangeable with numerous other players on other teams. They lack creativity, explosiveness, and consistency. 

     

    On defense, the Bills have no game changers. Von is still a work in progress, Poyer and Hyde aren't the same, the pass rushers are not reliable, inconsistent and hot or cold from game to game. 

     

    This team looks to be in survival mode rather than killer mode. The game tonight is a great example of this. I think this team is in serious jeopardy of losing the division and perhaps even a playoff birth.

     

    The McD and Beane era is on the decline. A decline that many will deny. 

    ok chicken little.... it is a long season.... Bills coming back from across the pond... thought the O line played well, Giants played zone all night, Bills need to learn how to beat the zone... still a win is a win... ugly as it was... win and move on.  You read too much into one game.

    Here was my summary from 2nd half thread...thought I'd post here:

     

    A few calls I'll note: 

     

    - 1st TD was no good. Zay's real time TD seemed to show significant bobble and jostle out of bounds that was cut off in all replays. Play did not seem to be reviewed. 

     

    - Want to add the hands to the face on the Bills that extended that early drive was also ticky tack. 

     

    - The jags 3rd down completion that was clearly an incompletion. No football move was completed, yet the terrible call was reviewed and mind numbingly upheld. A back breaker. 

     

    -Kincaid 3rd down catch (2nd or 3rd drive) that was clearly a conversion, but called short. Mind you stunningly not challenged by McD. 

     

    - A half a dozen holds on the Bills that were ticky tack. I thought most those Torrence holds late were bogus. Most of these had no replays , and if they did nothing stood out. 

     

    -Several PIs that were ticky tack. 

     

    - No call on the clear bat out of bounds on the Bills onside kick. It was obvious. It is a rule. 

     

    - Just want to say that I think Hyde's defenseless hit PF "could" have been called. But again, a ticky tack call in a crucial down, given the movement on the ball. 

     

    Just don't recall a game with such poor officiating. It was too much yellow, and 75% of them did not need to be called. 

     

    NFL has an agenda... welp well on to hockey

  12. My only knock was not getting players across the pond earlier... anyone who has travel from west to east knows it can take 3-4 days to adjust... we just flew back from visiting my Dad and you know took 3 days to feel normal.
