WTH are you talking about dude? Have you been asleep at the wheel for the past three years? This team is ascending (6-10, 10-6, 13-3) and just last year finally reached legit playoff contender status. They have a young head coach and a very young QB. Yes, yesterday sucked. Daboll clearly designed an ineffective game plan and our offense never found their footing. We were the better team. We outgained them by 120 yards. We just coached/played a dumb game at critical moments. If we look like this at week 7, then we can start talking about the team having real problems. As for now, I'll continue to contend that the future is insanely bright for this team.

Criticism is fine. He didn't play a great game, but there are people in here calling him "horrendous", which is just laughable. This was a tight game between two tough defenses. The 50/50 type of plays/calls all went the Steelers way in the 2nd half and the punt block was the nail in the coffin. Josh's miss of Sanders on a 50 yard throw early in the first half had very little to do with the outcome, as we still managed to build a 10 point lead at the half.

I don't get the Allen hate either. Not a great game, but he didn't lose it for us. We outgained the Steelers by 120 yards. We lost because of o-line and secondary penalties, our inability to convert on the Steelers side of the field, and because all of the "big plays" seemed to go in favor of the Steelers. This game doesn't worry me too much on its own. Also, Tre White's holding call that negated his INT was a very suspect call. If that play stands, there's a good chance that we win this game going away and it's a weeklong party here on TSW.

The defense was fine. Yes, Wallace got picked on a bit in the second half, but he was right there on a couple of those plays. The Johnson TD was good coverage. It was just a great play by Johnson. The Steelers have a great group of receivers and overall the D held up their end of the bargain. We lost this game for three reasons: 1. Terrible offensive playcalling, especially in short yardage situations. 2. Horrible offensive line play. (But some of this falls at the feet of Daboll for not sprinkling in more Singletary runs until it was too late) 3. And obviously, the blocked punt TD. Overall, I'm not too worried. And this might have been a good wakeup call for the team that nothing comes easy in the NFL.

Yikes.

I won't stick a fork in their season and the Wilson kid yet, but damn, the Jets appear horrible. BTW, nice to see Tyrod get off to a good start with the Texans. Would love to see him have some success this year.

Did anybody hit the jackpot on the SOL run-up? I made a nice chunk of change, but wish I would have gone in stronger at the start.

Josh: *shrugs*...*throws for 500 yards and 5 TDs*

We only did it for Brady because he loves dildos, and we wanted to show our respect to the GOAT. Haven't heard the same about Big Ben.

I had convinced myself that I didn't hate Brady, but I'm not so sure anymore after watching his post game interview. Lol

We'll see. This Ty'Son kid should be wearing preventative knee braces the way things are going for the Ravens at the moment.

Peters must have mistaken the ambulance for a bus.

Holy cow!!! Step away from the keyboard! No one doubts Lamar's ability to win lots of games in the regular season with his legs and dump off passes to his TEs and RBs. But the fact remains that in 37 career regular season starts, he's averaged a little over 150 passing yards/game. Admittedly, that jumps to around 195 yards/game if you remove the stats from his rookie season. Still, that is an absurdly low passing yardage total in today's modern game. So analysts and fans have been right to question if such an approach can remain effective for the long term and against better teams in the playoffs. So far, Lamar has failed his playoff tests (1-3 win/loss record, 3 TDs to 5 INTs, and a passer rating of 68.3....pee-ew). Until he performs in the playoffs and takes his team to the Super Bowl (because of him, not in spite of him), he's going to continue to have his doubters. It has nothing to do with his race. Just as the doubts about Josh's accuracy had nothing to do with his race. Or the same for Jake Locker. Or Taysom Hill. Or Tebow. Etc.

Crazy! My Lamar Jackson FF selection is looking better with each passing practice.

I voted yes on Oliver. No on the other two. I like Davis, but last year was sort of a breakout year already. And Josh has a lot of mouths to feed with Sanders in the mix. I could see 700-800 yards, but not more than that.

I like how the other guys don't even react. They're so used to these two dudes playing grab-azz with each other it doesn't even register.

Does anyone else find a lot of these Instagram "models" disgusting? They look sloppy and crass. I for one have no interest in having my girl's butt hanging out for every kid with an internet connection to ogle.

Hell no. There are still a lot of doubters out there who will seemingly never come to terms with the improvement in Josh's accuracy, and trust me, Josh is aware of them and is working like a madman to permanently shut them up. Assuming a healthy season from Josh and his supporting crew, I expect him to absolutely torch the league this year and put up a top-5 all-time season for a QB, win his first MVP and take us to the Super Bowl. He will leave no doubters, except for a pathetic few that will pivot to calling Josh a witch.

The Local will be open early for the Bills game. I guarantee it. It's a huge group that they cater to.

The new reporter looks like she's about 4' tall. She and Maddy Glab probably don't break 9' between the two of them. https://twitter.com/agetzenberg/status/1435247557500973074/photo/1 All kidding aside, Alaina, if you're reading this, welcome to the Bills family.

Here you go. I've been many times. Good folks. In Pacific Beach. http://www.sdbillsbackers.com/?fbclid=IwAR1nfrrGgIoWR1FpomwxK4btSDEyrquQP457LhyxEG3V37IiMfHYsOxU1VQ

I've lived in SF, LA, DC and SD, eaten at plenty of fine restaurants and the Left Bank's food stacks up. Nice atmosphere too.

Haven't bothered reading the thread, but just...NO. NO NO NO NO NO.

Most of the national pundits are riding our jock at the moment, so it makes sense to grab some attention by going against the grain and picking against us, especially since our rabid fan base will go nuts and give them the clicks and comments they're seeking. I woke up this morning and Mike Clay of ESPN had us ranked #8 in his power rankings, and I was like, "WTF is this guy an idiot?". My heart rate elevated, my face turned red, and then I realized he won...lol.

He's more like Hercules, a demigod.
