Beane sucks obv

Thumbs up to daquan. He’s been dominant and exactly what this defense has needed for years. I hope you’re right about Tre, but I think Rousseau is different. Agree to disagree

But the experience of watching the game live with other bills fans, either in the stadium or in a bar is such a big part of being a bills fan imo. i understand though, gotta do what you gotta do. i’m scared as hell of that blitz. Herbert looked like 2020 Josh allen avoiding the blitz and making them pay. But he also has better playmakers to choose from. Hopefully Josh is on his game I’m sure Miami will be wearing all white uniforms too. hopefully he can see them in his peripheral.

Poyer, I can see. That’s my dude. But he’s a safety. edmunds- I wouldn’t argue about who’s better. Both similar talents playing different positions. Both stars now. white- Rousseau is clearly the better player based on their play this year….and that’s what I’m talking about. Play this year. Rousseau has been a game changer. White hasn’t. i say this because I’ve focused on solely him and rewatched every snap he’s taken since returning from injury. He’s made massive strides since last year. Unless you really focus on him, I don’t think you can see how dominant he’s been.

Oh dam…. Get a new job? 🤷🏻‍♂️

Where did you read that? I hadn’t seen any rumors surrounding about the GB game other than Josh getting a concussion on the hit at the goal line.

Thad being turd. qb is stretching in the cold oh noooooo

He’s my grundles. @Solomon Grundy to you. 🤷🏻‍♂️

I agree. I think he’ll continue to get better as a passer as he sees more defenses. His biggest problem as a passer is inconsistency imo.

Awesome- do you go to a bunch of home games?

I think every season is made up of 3-4 mini seasons. This season has been no different- Mini season 1- week 1 through Green Bay halftime. Dominance with one set back due to injury and luck. Injuries Mini season 2- 2nd half of Green Bay through the Vikings game. What happened to our QB? Can Dorsey handle being OC? More injuries Mini season 3- cleveland through now. Perseverance required. Perseverance, check. Building blocks for the SB run. No more Von Miller, time for other to step up. 4 games left- who knows if there will be another (or multiple) mini season(s) to end the year or if mini season 3 continues to roll along…. I can’t wait to find out!!

Where do you live Grundles? Where from originally?

Good post. Makes sense. It always seemed a lot easier for us to get 5 yards on 1st down throwing a quick pass to Cole than running the ball. And for w/e reason, we can’t seem to have any success on Passes to the rb unless it’s a wide open hot read I bring up 3rd down catches for 2 reasons: -It seems as if our pass catchers, in general, drop a lot of balls on 3rd down and end drives, although that could just be me remembering what hurts the most- - along the same lines- selective memory, remembering what I enjoyed most and that’s Cole catching drive extending 1st downs-

Man to man coverage in a league playing 75% zone- bring on the man to man, everyone else will eat. I got a $1000 on the over

I agree it gives “an advantage”. It’s just not seen as 3 points by the sports books anymore

And, most importantly, he’ll be trusted by 17 to catch the ball.

I don’t believe that to be the case anymore. I had a talk with one of my buddies who is bets sports for a living. He thinks that 3-3.5 has changed in the last couple years and it’s more like 1-1.5 in most cases now.

Maybe a bit, but we have Milano

Thanks- he doesn’t look bad Sit him vs the bears or the pats- I don’t think it’s that big of a deal Can he catch the ball on 3rd down? That’s all that matters.

Agreed. i think we’ll stop the Miami run game but I also think the Miami D will stop our run game. I think Miami has one advantage in that McDaniels >>>>> Dorsey. i think we have 2 advantages: playing at home and in the cold and 17 is a tank. I see a tightly contested game, but we run away from them at the end 97-9 Bills.

I’d love to get involved in a dynasty league. I’ve been running fantasy leagues since 1988 when I’d add up the scores using the USA Today box scores, but dynasty leagues seem like a lot of work- I’d rather have someone else run it. I love the thought of a rookie draft. there are not rookie drafts in any of my leagues- of the 3 I’m in, one is a standard (No keeper), one is a keeper (keep your best player regardless of round chosen, it’s lame) and the best is a keeper where you keep a player based on round drafted. The round based keeper has much more strategy. Round value is everything. It leads to some lopsided trades once teams give up but it rewards those that know how to draft and project.

It was supposed to be sarcasm

No one cares- but in the spirit of the thread I’m in 3 12 team leagues- 1st round bye in 2 league Clinched a playoff spot in the other, but playoffs don’t start til the following week. I have one of the best team I’ve ever assembled in one of my keepers leagues due to a trade- each team keeps one player in the rd they were drafted (rd goes up 1 each year and can be kept for max 3 years) I traded: Deandre Hopkins (6th round keeper) Jameson Williams (15th round keeper) for Davante Adam (1st rd keeper) Ja’Marr Chase (4th rd keeper) James Cook (not keeper eligible as he was dropped earlier in the season) not a fair trade you say? I traded with a team that wasn’t making the playoffs, so dude was looking to add the best keeper he could for next year. Jameson Williams as a last rd keeper is gold. Hopkins is dam good in the 6th as well (but he can only keep 1). Lineup- Qb- Josh Allen (4th round) rb- Nick Chubb (2nd rd) rb- Saquon Barkley (1st rd 12th overall) wr- Stefon Diggs (was my 3rd round keeper, initially 5th rd in 2020) wr- davante Adams (trade) TE- Njoku/Kmet (waiver fodder) flex- Ja’Marr Chase (trade) flex- choice of James Cook, Jeff Wilson, Josh Palmer. the other teams are good, but no one cares so I’ll end my fantasy LAMP post here.

You said he’s shown nothing as a passer- My rebuttal: he led the league in TDs passes. Name another Terrible passer that has led the NFL in TD passes. He has most definitely “shown something as a passer”. But make stuff up to suit your agenda. put him in a heavy passing offense and he’ll fail. Of course he’d fail. He’s not a “great passer”. No one is saying he’s great. It’s 2023 - it’s not 1978- QBs run now. He just so happens to be the best running qb ever. Putting him in a pass heavy offense would be stupid because it would limit his abilities. last point- You’re arguing the fact that someone called him a “pretty good qb”- you’re arguing that…..”pretty good qb”. He’s 45-16 as a starter……but he’s not pretty good? More crack. You need it

Did you really just post his YPC from 4 catches? To prove a point? Bwhahahahaha
