Fun game. Hope we can close it out. A win would feel like the start of something special under McDermott.

Pathetic play calling last two series!

Neither. Tyrod had to throw that ball inside to lead Zay away from the sideline and the underneath coverage. Zay seemed to stumble or slow a bit which made it a very difficult catch. Instinct is to always lay blame but sometimes things just don't sync up. It is what it is.

Feel the same way. Good game. Agenda driven posters make these threads basically unreadable.

I thought Tyrod looked fine down the stretch. Questionable PI and Jones drop killed us.

Ahem. I stand by my prediction.

How is he going to massage his groin with a broken forearm?!?!?!

The Saints are terrible. There is no way that they beat the Pats. Patriots, Belichick and Brady are at their best when they have a chip on their shoulder. They will figure it out and rip off wins in 13 of the next 15 games. I'd be willing to bet on it.

Keep in mind that LA/Orange County has quite a few pro and high level college teams to support. Lakers/Clips, Dodgers/Angels, Kings/Ducks, UCLA/USC. So it was folly to assume that two crappy NFL teams playing in crappy stadiums would immediately succeed just because it's the NFL. LA is a Lakers, Dodgers, Kings and USC football town. That's it. Hell, even UCLA basketball has a hard time filling Pauley Pavilion and they're the most decorated college team in history.

That game was the peak of the K-Gun offense. We started that season like an absolute steamroller, but by the end of the season teams began catching up to us ever so slightly.

Doesn't bother me. It was a week 1 home win against what was largely considered one of the worst 2 or 3 teams in the league heading into the season.

Yes. I think we can definitely win if Shady stays healthy and Taylor plays a clean game.

I thought Rex sucked tonight. Totally boring and very little insight. Not surprised he was such a failure here.

Just keep running and make them burn their timeouts.

I've got the Bills in my cutthroat pool, so we better pull it out! Bills 17 Jets 9

Mediocre, at best, QB No real playmakers among the receivers/TEs Suspect offensive line Bad secondary Bad depth at basically every position outside of D-line. Tyrod would have to take a huge step forward for us to even compete for a playoff spot, and that doesn't look likely based on preseason returns.

I am a proud native Buffalonian and I've watched them for 33 years. The Bills are part of the fabric of Buffalo. I see no reason to stop watching now.

Exactly. Lol. And "building through the draft" isn't a bold move. It's how every successful NFL team is constructed. It's not like baseball or basketball where you can buy a team of superstars.

I guess they view Williams as JAG. Still, he seemed competent, young and cheap. Assuming no extenuating circumstances, first move I don't really see the logic behind.

Who knows? I'll be honest, I don't own a crystal ball. 😊 I will say I'm encouraged by the fact that they had the brains and balls to trade Watkins instead of letting him walk in a year or two for nothing. That is a very tough first sell to a long suffering and salty fanbase.

Staff needs to evaluate both of these guys in regular season action. Makes sense to go with the veteran incumbent at this point. It's easier to switch from Taylor to Peterman than the other way around.

I was 12 and in my living room. I was bummed but figured we'd get back and win one.

4-12. not sure how we move the ball through the air.

He probably was going to be cut. Better to get something rather than nothing. And I don't think you can really assign blame to anyone. He was drafted for the previous scheme and he was the victim of bad luck. It happens.

Shady is 29. We need to trade him asap if we can get anything of value. I would move him for a 2nd in a heartbeat.
