Just in Atlanta

My dad made me hitchhike to my SATs. My date drove me to the prom. My neighbor's son drives a damn Tesla. I think the kids call this kind of post "triggering".

That’s a lot of talk

... I count 57 starting quarterbacks 🤮 for the other three AFCE teams from 2001 to 2019. ... And 25 head coaches - 9 for the Bills, 10 for the Dolphins, 6 for the Jets. With the exception of the one year he was injured, it's been all Tom Brady for the Patriots. ... And Belichick has been the lone head coach for 22 years. This continuity is a big part of the success. It's both a cause and an effect.

His hard work is finally being rewarded.

No he didn’t

Who has Beane's number? He needs to hear this.

Odds of a horse head finding its way in Ed Mangan’s bed?

Derrick Henry is a monster, even though he lost a step last year. I think with an investment like DH, you need to commit to the run game. We are not committing to the run game with Josh Allen, unless he's the one running. With crucial needs at slot and WR2, O line and our secondary -- and LB if Edmunds walks -- I just don't see this happening strategically.

But these are facts. We want opinions round here.

The Bills should hire TBD as the next DC, as we seem to know what we're talking about. Every down, put up a poll. Zone blitz. Tampa 2. 4-2. Etc. Wisdom of the fan masses. No more 13 seconds or CBs lining 10 yards off Cinci receivers. We won't allow it.

It was a Bills D interception in 90. Pretty sure it was Mark Kelso. The dude took it from the hands of the defender like it just belonged to him. I started following them that year and they went to the Super Bowl. It took a half decade to realize your favorite team didn't just make the Super Bowl.

Perhaps this is a lead? https://www.yolobuffalony.com/

Josh Allen "haters"? At this point of his career ... with the proof he's amassed? Pretty much every time I turn on ESPN or watch a game, it's pure gush. Even Terry "you can't teach accuracy" Bradshaw is now a fan. Have to guess the average person considers JA a top 3 QB.

Wow, good read. Didn't realize how tough her road to recovery has been. I do hope the aphasia is correctable. Perhaps we can get the update on Murphy as well when his family is ready. Crazy year, for sure.

IDK. He was feeling close to the Dolphins after the Christian Wilkins incident? Or, perhaps, it was a brutal, exhausting game that came down to the wire and they shared their emotions for a second.

Nice write up. To me, if there is one thing to point to that made the biggest impact, it wasn't the pass rush, it was our DC's scheme. Our CBs were lined up 10 yards from their receivers on most plays. Against a QB well-known for his quick release. Holes everywhere. It was like we were trying to prevent the "big" play. But all the Bengals needed was one 10 yard pass after another. Over and over. Truly awful strategy. Add that to a masterful scheme from Lou Anarumo that took our rookie OC to school, and you have a recipe for a meltdown.

This defensive scheme has run its course in Buffalo. Frazier has consistently fielded a top 3 defense statistically in the regular season, yes, but has also consistently failed to scheme up a championship caliber strategy to take away weapons or get after the quarterback. You must, simply must, take away an opponent's primary weapon and pressure the QB. Playing 10 yards off some of the best receivers in the league, with a quick-strike quarterback, in the divisional round of the playoffs, is a scheme destined for failure. Add that to the week before that against the Dolphins ... and the year before that against the Chiefs. The body of work is there. And it's as conclusive as you get. Our fate isn't going to change under him if he were to stay next season.

When the Jets need hire Dave Wannstedt as DC and the Pats* hire that googly-eye HC from the Jets/Dolphins, the circle of incompetence will be complete.

Best player available, period. We have holes filled and have a solid divisional round talent team. We need and lack impact players who can get us to the promised land. People like Von Miller, Diggs and Allen who can change the course of the game. WR2, O line in particular. I don't believe we need a DE unless as stated he's a game changer. Our D line was not used by our DC correctly IMO and we were without Miller. Our D line is solid. Just underutilized in this scheme.

Then the team also over-performed last season? And the season before that? That, or we played as expected all year for 17 games (with the highest point differential in the league) and laid one egg. One of these scenarios is easier, and more logical, to believe.

Corners lining up 10 yards from the receivers, who play for a quick-release QB ... No disruption ... No taking away of any weapons. Just the same defense over and over: Soft zone, prevent the big play,. keep gap integrity. It works for the regular season, as we have an offense that's high-scoring, but it doesn't work for the playoffs. Plus, you can add missed tackles and a defensive line that failed to get any push. The pathetic defensive strategy and play-calling alone are ammunition to move on from our DC, who I've been a fan of. But we have (at least) two other playoff whiffs to add to it - the Dolphins and KC.

I'd add these random guys to the chopping block, as we're hungry for heads right now: Dennis Lock, Sr. Director Football Research. Where were the analytics for this game? Mark Carrier, Director Player Engagement. Players were unengaged all game. Nick Lacy, Strength + Conditioning Assistant. Outmuscled all game. Oh, that and Tony Romo. Used to be my fave. Now I have to mute him. Tony: You don't have to fill every second of space with jibber-jabber, man.

You really think the head coach is approving/unapproving playcalls in games? Not sure it works that way.

Frazier’s scheme and play calling are playoff caliber not championship caliber. I’ve been a fan and have defended him but after KC last year, making Skyler look like an all pro last week, and the weak zone nonsense this game was, I’m ready to move on. Dorsey gets another year to grow into his OC shoes imo.
