  1. This is what the national media thinks of us. Until we put together some dominant games we will continue to be marginalized.
  2. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/curtisrush/2019/11/03/buffalo-bills-might-be-most-flawed-6-2-team-youve-ever-seen/amp/ select quotes: The Buffalo Bills might be the most flawed 6-2 team you’ve ever seen on an NFL field. The Bills are off to their best start since 1993, but there is no euphoria among the players or coaching staff. And people are still asking: Are the Bills as good as their record indicates? After allowing 218 rushing yards in last week’s 31-13 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, the Bills gave up 127 yards on the ground to the Redskins, with most of the big gains coming from veteran Adrian Peterson, who rolled up 101 yards on just 10 carries in the first half for an average of better than 10 yards a carry. The Bills tightened things up in the second half. It’s not as if the offense has figured things out because Allen has now gone two straight games throwing for fewer than 200 yards. Against the Eagles, Allen threw for 169 yards and against the Redskins he was held to 160 yards in the air. But Cole Beasley seems to be less of a factor all the time, although his role is being masked because he caught a TD pass for the third straight game, which is the first time that has happened in Buffalo since Charles Clay in 2016. Beasley continues to run great routes and he’s a great possession receiver. But against the Redskins, Beasley was targeted only twice and caught both passes for only 13 yards – his lowest totals of the season. He has not caught more than four passes in a game since the loss to New England in Week 4, when he hauled in seven passes for 75 yards. This is not why you signed the former Dallas Cowboys receiver to a four-year, $29 million contract in the off-season. Unless he is hiding an injury, Beasley has to be more involved in the offense. https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.forbes.com/sites/curtisrush/2019/11/03/buffalo-bills-might-be-most-flawed-6-2-team-youve-ever-seen/amp/

  4. My biggest worry is Myles Garrett. The guy is an animal.
  5. In all honesty, they drafted him. Im pretty sire they knew what they had. McDermott likes to try and develop players. Theres a pattern with him. He hides them and exposes them little by little. He likes to call it "earn the right..." I think that in combination with Singletary's injury kept him out longer then they wanted. They let McCoy go, and this kid was the reason. My biggest gripe was how they continued to put Gore in the game in critical situations when Singletary was on fire. There's no doubt going forward you need to start Devin. He's too versatile and the defense needs to account for him in too many ways to not utilize him much more.
  6. Thanks for the grade... Shrug
  7. Patriots defense is OVERATED. Ive been saying it all year. They've played no one who has an offense. Its not stunning to me Collinsworth!
  8. Wow, im just sitting here wondering what grade you would give Jimmy Garoppolo this week.
  9. Best player on the team today was Singletary and its not even close.
  10. C+ Overthrow on deep shot, missed TD to Brown, fumble and sub 200 yards passing. He managed the game well and made a clutch throw at the end to seal the deal. It was an average NFL performance with minimal mistakes.
  11. I respect the body of work of Frank Gore throughout his career, but it's painfully obvious Singletary should be the starter. Gore is a one dimensional back at this point in his career, and lacks the elusiveness needed to be an every down back. He doesn't have the break away speed anymore either. Singletary can do it all and makes the defense account for him in multiple ways. He can create huge mismatches in the passing game, and has the burst and agility to break a huge play at any time. The only time Gore should be out there, imo, is to let Devin catch his breath. Go Bills!
  12. Gore is one dimensional. Singletary is not. Running with Gore on 3rd and short is telegraphing a play. This is shameful, especially because Gore is not able to get it done, and obvious to everyone but Buffalo's coaching staff.
  13. Can not believe they keep putting Gore in, in these critical situations. You are literally telling the defense its a run, and an easy stop.
  14. I can not understand how they justify allowing Gore in there over Singletary in critical situations when Singletary is dominating.
  15. Misleading??? He's fumbled it 8 times...nothing misleading about it. Then factor in Ints, and he's looking completely wreckless with the ball...which he is. You shouldn't be averaging 1 int and 1 fumble a game as a starting Qb...that horrendous.
  16. Lol, of course it has an impact. Its a lost down and most of the time lost yardage as well. Recovering a fumble IS ONLY a chance. There is no guarantee you are recovering it.
  17. Throw in his Ints and the picture becomes much clearer. 7 ints and 8 fumbles....in 7 games. The main problem is the offense is no where near strong enough to overcome those mistakes and he places the defense in horrible positions to overcome.
  18. I do as well, but its what I'd like to see him do. I think we will see a heavy dose of Singletary tomorrow. They are going to crowd the line and stop the run. We will either need Singletary to break some big runs to set up some nice play action or Allen will have to bring his A+ game. After last week Im not really looking forward to AP running against us.
  19. I'd like to see 300+ passing with a deep completion or two and no turnovers. I'd like to see him beat the blitz they are sure to bring with his arm, to move defenders out of the box.
  20. what if you throw 2 tds but have a turn over? what if you have 3 sacks but get blown out of the water for a 30 rushing td? what if you have an int but give up 100+ receiving?
  21. Maybe because we are young and full of testosterone and you're old and full of estrogen? Just a ?
  22. You still can't accept passing drives this league and Qbs need to put up big numbers to be successful. Its in black and white in front if your face and you continue to make excuses.
