Thanks for the input. I think someone who calls Chris a "douche" can handle my characterization of him as Josh in disguise. His opinion is a strong one. He's entitled to that opinion, just as you mentioned. The fact that I characterized him that way and you don't like it, doesn't mean I am not entitled to my opinion. It doesn't work that way. Calling Chris a douche is also "so wrong", as you put it. My characterization of Eball as Josh is pretty tame, if we're comparing the two. I've read plenty of posts with harsher characterizations of others. As to the rest of your post, I get it. I like Josh, but my post wasn't anti Josh. IMO, some here are thin skinned to criticisms of Josh. One of the worst critics is Dan Le Batard . He harps on how bad Josh is and how we're winning in spite of Josh. Comes with the territory of being a QB in the NFL. I still love the Dan Le Batard show and listen though. Respectfully, Dopey

1)"so many teams try to come to Pittsburgh and win the game; you have to "not lose" the game...": He said so many teams(he didn't single out the Bills). Plus we did what we needed to in order to "not lose the game". 2)Just before the TD pass on 3rd down: "I don't think you're gonna see the Bills being crazy aggressive...they love their defense, they would love a lead right now in the 4th quarter." After the TD pass, Collinsworth says nothing other than "go figure" and then recaps the routes run by the Bills.: He said something that made total sense, nothing out of bounds. Then he says "go figure". When I heard that, I laughed. I took it as "well they just proved me wrong, go figure". Not sure how you find that as a slight. 3) At NO time does he credit Allen with the perfectly thrown pass to Kroft. Watch it yourself. Not sure why you feel that makes him a douche, unless you're Josh Allen in disguise. Thin skinned over nothing.

Amen.

Wallace is a major contributor. He he's tied with Edmunds for the lead in solo tackles and the only DB with more passes defended is White. And he's only in his 2nd season in the league. IMO, you're missing something in your assessment. I think Coach and Beane would lean on keeping someone like him.

He looks OK to me. But I'm not expecting all pros at every position. We have a top 5 defense and he's a big part of it. Wallace is 3rd on the team in total tackles and he's tied for 1st in solo tackles. Maybe, just maybe you're looking for this week's whupping boy and don't appreciate when he makes a play. He's made plenty of good plays this year. For every "bad" play he's made, I'm sure if you tried, you could find 3 or 4 good plays. I found 2 with limited video. When Conner shook Hyde out of his shoes, guess who helped bring Conner down? Wallace. Pittsburgh's final drive, 1:31 left to play and Conner gets a dump off pass. Wallace comes up and makes the tackle, even though the WR blocking him is holding. And the cherry on top?!? Wallace gets the game ending INT. https://www.espn.com/nfl/team/stats/_/name/buf/buffalo-bills

In place of which player?

Are threads with such a vague title called a "LAMP"?

B-

BOO!!! BOO!!!

1st you say he's of no value, then you say it doesn't matter who you blame. Way to shift away from your "Roberts has no value" rant to an overall special teams complaint. Then you say you'd prefer the kick return team to not try. Sounds like you just wanna complain about something. Done here. Moving on. Not worth discussing.

You're really blaming him for those negative plays?

No, I disagreed with your assessment that he has no value. Try as you might, you ain't twisting things here.

PLAYOFFS!!!

No way do you hand the ball to Singletary here. Gore.

Good timeout.

Nope, good technique to create a turnover.

2 really good returns called back by penalty. He's doing just fine.

Murph!

Defense!!!

Daboll!!!

This is gonna be a game only Bills and Steeler fan will finish watching.

Jrober38 did say "typically".

Does anyone know what happens to practice squad players after the season ends? Are they free agents or can their rights be retained? Thanks in advance.

Don't deny he has decent hands. Any issues we have had with drops have been by Zay and Knox. Duke replaced Zay and had 1 decent game, then benched after 2 sub-par games and an injury. Duke is not replacing Knox. Throughout all these posts, the theme for anyone apposed to Duke getting the nod is that he doesn't offer enough to sit someone else. It's not just us, it's the coaching staff that I trust and has taken us to the record we have right now. As a couple of posters noted, we didn't lose to Baltimore because Duke didn't play. If Josh hits a couple of passes that were available in the 1st half, we stand a good chance to win. Those were not contested balls, they were way off and even Duke wasn't catching those.

Haven't you been reading?! Duke caught a TD vs. Tennessee!
