It will be interesting to see where Allen takes his level of play next season. The issue with accuracy has to improve though. Watching the College National Championship game last night you could see the difference between Trevor Lawrence and Joe Burrow. It made me think of the difference between Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes. Burrow was so deadly accurate and Lawrence was not. It played out as the difference in the score.

Cody Ford is a high character guy so if he says he will donate the money to charity I fully believe he will. What I don't understand is how the NFL can fine Ford $28k but not fine Clowney for a helmet to helmet hit that knocked Wentz completely out of the game and maybe end his career. The NFL should follow college football and their "Targeting" and eject anyone for helmet to helmet.

I'm not a fan of hyperbole. For me, it usually detracts from the point trying to be made. I welcome critical thinking, it's why I come here everyday. 'You're only as good as your last kick' is a clownish statement to me.
Oh really, ask Mike Nugent when he got cut by the Patriots a couple of weeks ago. He missed a 34 yard field goal and had a 29 yard field goal blocked. He was 5 of 8 with the Pats so that means two of the three he missed were in his last game with them.

I see this game as a toss-up. If the Bills are to make the playoffs and be taken seriously as a team that can succeed in the playoffs then they need to win this game with a dominate effort. The same holds true in two weeks against Denver, but lets take it a game at a time.

I think what makes analytics so good for baseball is that you can apply it throughout the minor leagues as well. The spin rate on a pitchers curveball or bat speed for a hitter can be measured at any level of baseball and compared to any level of baseball. That may not work as well in football on a broad scale but there is still value to be had using analytics. As it becomes more main stream the important analytics or useful information will become more apparent. I like it and hope the Bills get on board.

When the Broncos played the Chargers at the StubHub Center in Southern California it sounded like there were more Bronco fans than Charger fans. I guess the NFL got mixed up when they piped in the crown noise.

I can't believe anyone is surprised. They stunk in the preseason games. Nothing new.

I used to think JP Losman was as dumb as a brick.

Whether you like him or not the Bills got fleeced on that trade. The Bills run defense went in the crapper after he was traded. He'll do fine in Jacksonville.

That game was hard to watch, at least the 2nd half. I like Rivers. He is a competitor who leaves it all on the field, but he comes up short time after time. He started the 2nd half disaster with that interception thrown into triple coverage. The announcers said he threw nine 4th quarter interceptions last year. That confirms he struggles when the game is on the line,

In the article it says the fans are willing to pay for the stadium experience. That may be but these new stadiums may price themselves out of reach for most fans. It already costs a lot of money to go to a game and that is in an average stadium. I live in Southern California and looked into going to see the Bills play the Chargers. On Stub-hub and other ticket sits the starting price was over $150 per ticket. That is for a soccer stadium being used by the NFL. How much more does the "stadium experience" cost? I chose to not go to the game. Its just as well given the outcome.

This year is worse because it seemed like things were lining up. 5 - 2 start, good defense and an adequate offense to be competitive. The Jets game looked like a win as did the Chargers game. I figured they would be 7 - 3 right now worse case. After these three blowouts I think beating Indy will be a challenge. I am not sure they could beat the Browns or niners right now.

this team is the worst team in the NFL, PERIOD!
No way, Cleveland is still worse. The Niners are in the mix as well. But this team is sliding into the abyss. I am always amazed how a team can trade players picked in the 1st round for late round draft picks and think that is a good idea. It must be something in the water or air at One Bills Drive that causes this thinking. Anyway I think 5 -11 is a real possibility after this Chargers debacle.

Reading about the Bills isn't worth $2.99 a month.

You're all a bunch of ungrateful bastards.
If it wasn't for Russ, there's no way the Bills would have been able to get Psy to perform Gangnam Style in Toronto at halftime in that game against Seattle.
I agree, I think that was the highlight of the season.

Berman has always been a Bills guy which makes him family. Prayers for him and his family.

F5 this please. Disease know no difference between money and poverty
That isn't entirely true. Money buys better heath care. How many people have no health insurance because they can not afford coverage. How many people with coverage can not afford to cover the copay or deductible so they don't get treatment at all. I wish the best for Kason and pray he will be healed but his father has an obligation and responsibility to provide for him right now and maybe for a long, long time. Karlos has the talent to play in the NFL if he sets his priorities and puts the weed down.

Stealing from the Raiders: "Buffalo Bills, a Commitment to Mediocrity"
"You can count on their consistency"
And then add "Just Try To Win Baby!", instead of Al Davis' "Just Win Baby"

....sounds like a misunderstanding of Jim's role

ORCHARD PARK, N.Y. -- Jim Overdorf was promoted to Buffalo Bills senior vice president of football administration, giving him control over contract negotiations and salary cap decisions.
The move announced Thursday was part of a minor front office restructuring that follows Russ Brandon's promotion to chief operating officer. Brandon's promotion came after the Bills elected not to fill the general manager's role after Marv Levy stepped down at the end of the season.
Anyone who has been involved in the contract negotiations and salary cap decisions should be sent packing. If that includes Overdorf, and it sounds like it does, then he should be gone. To change the culture you have to change the people. All of them, including good ole, Russ Brandon.

No, but it should be a major consideration. Remember that Edmonton fired people, changed org structure, and finally got going once they won McDavid. You get a top 3-4 player in the NHL and they get special treatment and consideration.
I want a young coach who will run and gun. So far one name that I like for that is Sheldon Keefe.
Edmonton turned things around because of Peter Chiarelli and Todd McLellan as well as McDavid. Chiarelli and McLellan were both proven winners, something Buffalo never hires.

Only for the pre-season games when no one is watching.

Some things never change, they stay the way they are, like the Bills missing the playoffs and the Patriots winning the AFC East and more. I like the direction the Bills are going though. My only worry now is the Whaley effect. I would like it better if he were not in the Bills organization.
-
As a very low paid backup maybe because he can provide guidance to a young QB. But the reality is he would cost too much for that role. I would rather go with Cardale Jones than Fitz. I saw enough of him when he was the starter. Most of those memories are bad.

My heart aches for you and your family. May God lift you and your family up and hold you tight.

I like Steve Levy. He is always enthusiastic when he calls a game, no matter what sport it is.
