    He is #1 in passing TDs, rating, QBR, TD%, YPA, YPC--despite being 21st in pass attempts.

     

    The play you reference, he threw on the run, under pressure. 

     

    your take is...... underwhelming.

    Nah, you’re wrong, Purdy would be a very underwhelming mvp winner. He is a solid game manager that succeeds due to the plethora of weapons that make life easy for him. Josh Allen on the niners would result in many broken records. Brock Purdy on this bills team would be an absolute bust.

    The Gabe Davis hate on here is absurd. The dude is a #2 WR with more TD’s than most teams’ #1 WR. Yeh he’s not Diggs - few WR are. 

    And he has less receptions and reception yards than most teams number 3 receivers. So he’s a red zone threat, that’s it

    Could it be that he has crushed Mafia’s souls twice in the playoffs, including one that was so gut wrenching there’s a name for it?

     

    Dunno just a guess. 

    Nah it’s just that he’s a complete tool on and off the field. Documentary has confirmed that for me

  4. Fair, but now compare the salary caps of both teams. Brandon Beane has exhausted our cap on whiffs. Maybe not fair to pin von millers injury on him, but if he drafted capably, somebody could’ve stepped up in Miller’s absence. As someone who was in love with the McDermott and beane culture build and strategy, beane has failed big time to give Allen enough weapons and build a championship defense. The money and draft picks towards defense didn’t nearly pan out. The offensive line built to protect their franchise qb is a joke. He should take most of the blame. Maybe player development is lacking as well, I don’t know for sure. Either way, I’m continually disappointed in the lack of accountability at one bills drive these days

    Getting to the playoffs is no longer good enough. Both coordinators embarrassed their teams yesterday, and I’d argue Frazier has done it more often than not. We’re truly paper Tigers as the roster looked unbeatable but crumbled with some of the weakest schemes and strategy I’ve ever seen. 
     

    edit: and as much as we love captain clappy, yesterday, down 14, he went nuts clapping on a 2nd down stop. He’sa defensive cheerleader. And the only reason I didn’t pick “clean house” was because you included Beane in there. 

    Why is beane safe in your eyes? What good has he done besides draft Josh Allen and trade for Diggs? So many mid at best players he’s drafted, signed or traded for over the past four years. Now we are cap strapped with a ton of roster holes and bad contracts for mediocre players.

  6. If you trusted the process, this is the end result. Von signing and finishing off the rest of cap space was supposed to be the piece to get them to the Super Bowl. Never happened and now no cap space, tons of holes on roster, terrible trenches, and questionable coaching. 

  7. Beane has failed miserably with his patchwork o-line year after year. Which is incredibly stupid considering most gm’s would want to put more resources into protecting their most prized and expensive investment. Every year I get more and more underwhelmed by the job Brandon Beane has done so far, minus the Josh Allen selection

    If the Miami punter (who had an absolutely outstanding game by the way) had gotten the punt off from his end zone, I'm guessing that the Bills would have had the ball around the Miami 40 - 45 yard line with a little over a minute left, no timeouts and still needing a touchdown.  Would that have been better or worse than the safety?  I think it's probably a coin flip.  If a safety was the smarter play, Miami should have taken a safety on purpose.  Anyone have the analytics?

    It's definitely debatable. My opinion is that it worked out in our favor based on the way the bills were moving the ball up and down the field into the red zone territory, without being able to come away with points. I think it's easier to get into field goal range than to punch it into the end zone.

    No one in their right mind would ever question Allen's heart and effort. The end result is what really counts. He fell short as did the team. 

    Seems as though some would question his talent and whether he is worth his contract though. Which also requires being out of your mind. I agree, team came up short. Just don't agree that the loss is on Allen as was declared in virgils thoughts.

    Not to mention that there are now a lot of 40 million dollar plus QB's who would have melted away in today's game.  In fact what other 40 million dollar QB would have done better today facing the same circumstances as Allen?  We know Burrow & Stafford would not have as they melted down under less duress then Allen faced today.  How about Russel Wilson or Kyler Murray? Yea right.  Even Mahomes wouldn't have done any better as we saw in Indy today. I guess they think Dak would have kicked butt and taken names playing without 3 of his 5 starting O-linemen.

     

     

     

     

    Also not to mention that every weapon he has on offense was in and out all game with heat issues, but he kept running around, giving it his all every play and never came out once, or lessened his effort

    yeah it's almost seems like Virgil is (a) either paying him the $42m himself or (b) jealous that he's making so much.  A very 2ndgrade-like comment.

     

    I really really miss BillfromNY

    Agreed, but I do like Virgils write-ups usually. However, I think he is not only being unfair towards JA in this post, he is also seemingly insulting/mocking him. Not a fan of todays write up or comments by him. Oh well, cant like em all.

  12. The irony of Bills fans waiting forever for their franchise QB, who is amazing on and off the field, and that almost every other franchise would do anything to have, and we say he lost a game for us due to a bad pass while he was running for his life in 100 degree heat all day. Unreal. Someone said it earlier, and was correct, that many fans take this guy and what he does for granted

    This is that all or nothing mentality that I don’t understand.  


    When he had the chance to win the game, he choked.  Sometimes it’s that simple.  Did other people suck, sure.  But does that make missing McK on that touchdown okay?   
     

    He made a lot out of nothing sure.  But when the 42 mil man had to make the throw that mattered most, he missed and we lost.  
     

     


    It’s both to me.  Gabe should have caught it, but the DB also made a good play.  If you ask Gabe, he’ll say it’s on him 

    Calling him the 42 million dollar man? Not really cool at all. This guy gives everything he has every game for his teammates and for the franchise. He also is amazing community wise. He is the ONLY reason they were in the game at all today and he is the reason Buffalo is on the map with the recognition they are getting. Now you're gonna ***** on him and his contract because he missed a throw? "he made a lot out of nothing sure" Way to downplay that but focus on his bad pass to mckenzie.

    Virgil, I agree with your take 100%. Of course you knew you would get slack when you criticized Allen. Allen wasn't the steady rock we've grown spoiled to see. Of course, it as due to the injuries and perhaps the heat. It wasn't all ob Allen. It was a team loss via miscues. Allen especially in the 2nd half just wasn't as consistent as he needed to be. He seemed panicked at times and made rookie like throws at times. Especially, that series in the end where the Bill's failed to score. Your franchise QB has to get a TD. To boot, he short armed a sure TD to little dirty. He will make That throw 99 out of 100 times. That just can't happen!!! Allen needed to be superman today. That's a bit unfair to him. Maybe that's too high of a bar? It is a team.game too and the depleted oline sucked in the 2nd half.  He will no doubt come back better. Allen is the least of this teams worries. 

     

    He was superman today. He literally carried that offense up and down the field. You expect way too much out of him.

  15. They stepped in due to not so great circumstances and not only held their own, but played well. However, I think it's worth noting that it was against a very sub par wide receiver group. Woods is the titans #1 receiver by a large margin, and probably shouldn't be any teams #1 at this point in his career. Next week will be drastically more challenging for them.

    I admit that I didn't read the whole thing, but I was curious, so I started to read.

     

    Thank goodness that times have changed is all I can say.

     

    Here are the QBs that started for this team since I (remember) watching in the 1970s, my family being from Buffalo after having emigrated from eastern Europe in the late 1800s.  In no specific order:

    • Fergie
    • Joe Dufek
    • Gary Marangi
    • Ferragamo
    • Bruce Mathison (sp?)
    • Kelly (alongside a cast of others that I forget)
    • Legend Frank Reich
    • Flutie
    • The Robosackmaster (Rob Johnson)
    • Todd Collins
    • The guy who didn't read the playbook (or maybe he didn't start, but tried to finish, but regardless)
    • Alex Van Pelt
    • Drew Bledsoe
    • Losman
    • Kelly Holcomb
    • Trentative
    • Fitz
    • Travis Brown (that's his name, right?)
    • Brian Brohm (maybe I'm wrong, but ***** it, don't care, too old, too long ago)
    • Manuel (barfing out loud)
    • Tyrod Taylor
    • Barkley
    • Allen
    • Tad Lewis
    • Orton

    I'm sure that I've left some out, because when you have a formerly moribund franchise -- you tend to forget the ***** that isn't right.  You watch the games, and you kinda *blah* most of the time.

     

    Plus the FO was ***** for most of my life.  So, yeah, it's a partnership between ownership, the FO (GM in particular), HC, and QB.  For most of my life that wasn't a thing.  Glad that it's a thing now, and here's to hoping for 2022-2023.

    You forgot Jeff Tuel lol

    Of course that from a man who did "still play defense" and give up the Minnesota miracle. 

    Hmm I disagree that the situations are comparable. The Minnesota miracle was more or a player failure than a scheme/coaching failure like we had with frasier and mcd in KC. Saints safety was in position to make the play, and he blew it.
