K-9

Minny loves that A gap pressure and I fully expect Groy, Ducasse, and Miller to need their brown football pants come next Sunday.

I disagree. And I’ll leave it at that. Except to say the Owens comparison is apt in terms of pure talent. But that’s where it ends for me. If Gordon ever shows an ounce of the same football character that Owens did, I’ll change my stance.

You’re right. There’s no case to be made for trying not to improve the WR situation. There is quite a case to be made for not seeking that improvement in certain players. We disagree on that. That simple. I don’t get it either. This is the last player I want trying to help Allen develop for all the reasons I would think are self evident. People can’t get past the eye candy I guess.

He needs to “learn” the game and he is certainly smart enough to do that. And continue to work on his lower body mechanics. In the meantime, I’m going to enjoy watching his progression as he makes this team his. I was very impressed with his leadership on the sideline yesterday and it speaks well that KW was, too.

Never mind.

Dude is strong. I didn’t realize how many steps he dragged Ingraham on his first INT.

Conjunction junction. That’s what junction.

No excuses. Only reasons. And if anyone at OBD is looking for the former vs. finding solutions to the latter, they need to pull a Vontae and clear out. Preferably BEFORE the game starts.

Has Preston Brown tweeted anything about the weird things that must be going on in Pittsburgh?

It’s an attack vs. read and react sort of thing.

I suspect Brown would still love playing for Buffalo is they offered him what he wanted. Funny how,love works.

Davis’s halftime retirement reflects poorly on one party and one party only. Never knew new I had something in common with Preston Brown, though. We are BOTH glad he’s no longer on this team.

You are getting a guy who has literally never shown he has what it takes to succeed as a player in college or the pros. Prodigious physical talent. ZERO ability to apply it on any consistent basis whatsoever. But yeah, all he needs is a change of scenery to finally get it.

I’m not either. But you can cram your snark, regardless.

The difference between Gordon and that late round pick is that you really don’t know what you’re getting with the drafted player. You know exactly what Gordon’s body of work entails.

GMs and sports writers have been using the term to describe truly exceptional prospects in football, basketball, and hockey since I was a kid. But it was never over-used like it has been for the last 10 years or so. The term has become so watered down it’s almost meaningless.

I can recall that term being applied to Gretzky when he was 16.

Crosby, Lemieux, Gretzky? The next generational player will be identified when we start hearing of an 11 year old doing amazing things against older competition in some junior midget league, in some obscure Canadian hamlet.

People are laughing at my favorite team! Oh, the shame! The impact on my daily life has been catastrophic and I don’t think I can face it. Damn you, Bills! Damn you to hell, I say!

Not upset so much at the record, but more at how they’ve looked getting there, especially on the D side of things. This defense, particularly the secondary, has regressed. That’s a bit concerning.

Not thumbing my nose at the idea of acquiring WR help as we need it more than any team out there. I’m simply saying “pass” on certain wideouts. That may sound like being a choosy beggar, but I believe adding certain players just isn’t worth the trouble down the road.

Literally never heard of this in over 50 years of football fandom. Obviously, Davis needs to be shown the door, officially. And I want Allen, not Kyle or Lorax or another aging vet in a "leadership role, nor any coach, to get up in front of that room and let everyone know in no uncertain terms that, for good or ill, this is our team. And if you don't want to be on our team, then get the F out of here right now and quit wasting everyone else's time. Gotta come from Josh Allen. It's never too early to make the team his.

LOL. This place is ICE on steroids lately. And ICE was already on steroids!

Yep. Doesn't get any more definitive than that.

Sorry, but I'm not into the 20/20 hindsight, Monday morning QBing mind set. It serves absolutely no purpose and has absolutely no bearing on the current situation. I get that it helps to vent our frustration but, again, it is not constructive. It's safe to say the Pegulas have made mistakes, the GM has made mistakes, our coaches have made mistakes, and our players have made mistakes. But I'm supposed to believe that Mahomes, under the same group of mistake-making idiots would be performing as well as he is in KC. That's an absurd proposition.
