You mean the w-h-o-r-e doc who just watches film and then predicts how long a player will be out?

copycat

Dorsey discovered something with the O last week. Josh continues to spread the ball around and mixes in a few runs. Bills put up 31 points; the key is whether the D can slow the Bungles down. I’ll say they do just enough to squeak out a hard fought 31-27 W.

Just looking at the most recent performance, that’s all.

Who is falling to pieces? Through 3 quarters Thursday night the defense was fine — even better than fine — and then a couple of stupid penalties and a lucky TD catch made that game close. Tampa’s first TD was like a 25 yard drive as well after the tipped INT.

Yes, and when Ja’Marr Chase gets wide open for an easy TD because Douglas doesn’t have the playbook down yet and the communication was off we’ll all be glad McD forced him into the lineup. He’ll play when they’re confident he won’t be a liability. Grow up, man. Your posts in this thread are childish, to say the least.

Pretty clean report, all things considered, since we know Josh will be fine and the rest of the guys (besides Q) will be inactive anyway.

I guess we'll see.

Serious question: what was your take on the play of Shakir and Gabe last Thursday, as well as Kincaid's productivity?

Very minor point, but it’s “Tre” not “Tra” — as in Tredavious White.

Hahaha, well played. I still stand behind my comments in that thread, but I appreciate the humor.

This one aspect of McD’s coaching, in particular, is infuriating. Last night he did it again, multiple times, and all it does is give the offense a chance to regroup and strategize. Why aren’t the Bills practicing these situations during the week so they know what to do when the moment arrives? Last night McD had a terrible 4th quarter.

Let me just go ahead and disavow you of the notion you have any internet privacy.

A trade for Elam? Do the Bills need a bag of donuts?

If I am mis-remembering something I apologize, but wasn't McNair pretty widely known for being racist?

No surprise at all...gotta free up that roster spot and they didn't want to use up a PS position for somebody who can't practice/play. He'll be able to come back.

Can Sunday at 1 pm please get here already?

He had one bad game (half, really) -- and it was one of the worst of his career. Since then he's been brilliant. I just wish he'd run a bit more when it's wide open in front of him.

Drama Queen much? Thankfully we're playing against Macaroni Jones.

What kind of crazy, nonsensical run-on topic heading is this? Do we mean “transcendent?” Josh Allen needed the right environment that allowed him to hone his skills and get reps. The Daboll relationship was perfect for that, and McDermott allowed Josh to learn on the job. They’ve helped each other, but I believe both would be successful without the other.

I’ve never been a “blonde bimbo” kind of guy, which is why I was surprised at how attractive Suzanne was when I saw some old clips this week. At the time I went the brunette angle as well… Jo from Facts of Life…aye caramba…

I feel a strong sense of melancholy reading reports like this. Three’s Company was a staple of my youth. We just didn’t appreciate then that women were suppressed and exploited in every way. I also didn’t remember just how attractive she was. RIP Suzanne…

Sounds like every woman I tried to date in high school.

That's really what you think this season is? Gotta enjoy the journey, man...if you go into a season as a fan saying "Super Bowl or bust" what fun will you ever have?

I just don't know what to make of this board and our fans these days. To the uninformed observer, if you just looked at the threads on the first page you'd assume this was a bottom-feeding squad. The Bills are #3 in scoring offense and scoring defense, +4 in takeaways, and are right in the position most expected them to be when the season began. Nobody ever won the Super Bowl in October, and history is replete with scads of teams that looked "unbeatable" at this juncture and didn't lift the Lombardi. Lately, the issue is with <yawn> Dorsey again...bad gameplan, can't get the ball to anyone other than Diggs, yada, yada, yada. What I saw Sunday night was a slow start on offense fueled by an untimely fumble, a drop, and a fantastic tip/interception by the Giants on a pass headed to Knox for a big gainer. When the team returned from halftime they marched down the field twice for TDs and were a fingertip catch away from icing the game. Is everything perfect? Of course not! But it never is, and crucifying Dorsey on October 18 -- two weeks after he was called brilliant for his gameplan vs. Miami -- is the perfect lens through which to view Bills fans. Maybe a lot of you really have nothing else to do but sit around and dream up wild conspiracy theories about how Josh could force his way out of Buffalo, psychoanalyze whether Brian Daboll and Sean McDermott have a blood feud, or criticize the Bills for using Diggs as their first option in the passing game. They lost two games by a total of 11 points! The ONLY thing that matters is that the Bills grind out wins so they put themselves into decent playoff position, and that they are playing their best football in DECEMBER. "But it's a fan message board. That's what we do." Ok. You be you. I'll continue to look at what is going right, share my opinions in an upbeat way, and show some faith in the players and coaches to work on what they need to work on. This can still be a very special season; the league is wide open. Go Bills! 18-2, Babyyyyyy!!!
