Giants were missing half of its starting defense in thst game. The jets defense is actually pretty good. then you have home/ road crowd differences which tend to affect young teams.

you grade the players for the talent…not what they did for us. Giants took him because the knew more about him.

youare mixing things around here. buffalo is a 4-3 team. In a design of a roster you have 8 DL on the roster You want fresh guys out there so you rotate players. If you are not gassing your players are going to be gassed by the 4th. The DL runs much more than thr OL because they are chasing players on offense as for drafting—- it’s much much harder to get a (1) good pass rushing DE , (2) a very good OT, (3) a QB , (4) am impact LB, and (5) a top CB, after the 1st round. You can find some players sfter the 1st but they have flaws/ weaknesses that you might be able to work on. you can get decent WRs, TEs, RBs in the 3rd-6th rounds. Look over draft history of receivers/ RBs being drafted between 1st vs those 3rd or later.

They are not special. They played 2 week divisions.in nfc north and slc south they were 7-1 in one score games. they got lions and jags ehrn they weren’t playing their best. Their non common were saints, cards, and Steelers.

Therr was another thread on this titled second half of packers game.

i think scheduling will not put KC-BUF-CIN games in late devember. this year had buffalo best minnesota or jets or dolphins and they were two games up on Cincy thry woukd have rested thrir starters knowing they could face them in the playoffs so why show the playbook. i expect the final 7 games of the season to be 3 division games road game at chargers, at eagles ( early december ) hosting jacksonville , den/ raiders non London game jacksonville an chargers game could be one of those flex Saturday games

as I said…..they can’t block. They have some say and requests. In inter league play so cbs getting Dallas was limited so they would to get one of their games. Division rivalry games usually had one for league network and ine on national prime time. It was rare to have both in primetime in the schedule. If it occurred it was due to flexing. FOX wants a DH to lead into the Sunday World Series game both networks will get DH during the November ratings month. FOX might request an early season single game week to align with MLS scheduling where most markets get 1 pm early and 430 soccer game. Those with late game get a different 130 pm game stadium and hotel availability is a factor in scheduling. When buffalo hosted the world junior hockey tourney from Dec 25-Jan 5 they ask for no home games during that period. The first time thry hosted, the nfl missed the message. They had to change the schedule last minute. The 2nd time buffalo was off. lsince Seattle mariners made the playoffs last year, it will be interesting to see the October schedule looks like for them because the stadiums are next to each other and they share parking lots. Don’t be surprised to see in the rough 4 week baseball playoffs they are scheduled at hom on Thursday or Monday during WS time. Thry have an off week thrn, and they play 2 road games. If thry schedule a home game thrn it’s a div game like with AZ or SF thst thry can flip sites with a later game. if you recall with Brady- manning games they were generally rotated among cbs, nbc, and espn. You will see the same with buf-kc games….fox got it for thurs, nbc got it, then cbs 425. Next year it’s likely not on cbs. what complicates this is the unbinding of teams to networks.

Drsft decision are heavily dependent on roster moves made. if Edmonds walks snd thry don’t sign a LB thrn thry coukd drsft one in the1st.

CBS can’t protect anything. the schedulers do listen to network preferences y understanding is that next year there will no longer be league affiliation to networks in programming. thr national slots sre Monday night thursday night Sunday night and national 435pm slots the Bills in London— will this be an NFL/ streaming 930am game or a 1 pm game. the national games would be… Hosting Dallas hosting giants at KC at Cincy At Philadelphia some divisional games if Brady is playing for Bucs orRaiders— expect that game to be on national TV e ause of that, I think denver at buffalo will be in London. Brady at Buffalo will be their home opener ( Monday night) KC game will be MNF Cincy will be on sunday division game on thursday giants- bills will be a later season Sunday night game onr of Dallas/ eagles vs Buffalo will be solo 425 game and the other on Sunday night. divisional game for de ember Saturday flexing or it could be an Xmas Monday game followed by MNF similar to this past season.

was Zay a failure vs not a fit given coaching changes? He has had a de ent career after buffalo instead of being out of football. i judge drsfted based on player career success irrelevant of where they played.

Higgins was not a 1st rd pick. Davis is perfectly fine. Knox is fine. RBs aren’t the problrm its about play call and execution. many talked of being drained this season with everything. Cincinnati is not better. It comes down to game plan and execution

to do an 8 team double elimination….. Make it easier…2 4-team groups….. For each group of 4 week 1 —-2 games against 4 teams G2 and G2 week 2 — winners face off in G3 , losers face off in G4 week 3 — Game 5 is G3L vs G4W week 4 — game 6 G3W vs G5W week 5 — rematch game 6 – asdume no more double elimination…. week 6 — group winners meet week 7 —winners meet la full 16 team double elimination would add more weeks.

your premise was Bills not drafting WRs high. i said they traded their 1st for a WR. How do you not count that? as I also said ( you ignored)…. Look at the success rate in drafting WRs with top 20 picks. Even top 50 drsfted. Their is a high failure rate. They don’t plan wasting a pick on an unpredictable position. As for Hodgins….. he didn’t play STs which hurt him. Buffalo hasn’t had big injuries with Diggs/ Davis for him to get a shot. from a structure standpoint in buffalo 5 WRs on a team—2 outside and slot, one who has speed if the others don’t. The 5 the could go to a rookie. You might have another on the team for returning/ special teams. thsts common in the nfl if you are back ups behind 2 very good players snd don’t get a chance until a PS pluck on you are a FA.

ummmm….they traded a 1st for Diggs…… look at success/ failure rate of WRs picked high in the draft like top 20. https://www.drafthistory.com/positions/wr.html

hr had a bad injury in last year before being a free agent. Thr isdue was his injury and what would you get for him. you can’t measure coaches by Super Bowls in this league.

what’s the point in the rebuttal…..same ***** different day after any loss

When is the March to OBD?

thry have know each other a while. She’s in her early 60s. he didn’t marry some 20 something

partnof thr plan around the 17 the gsmes was it to be a neutral site %( mostly international) of course thry could have it rotate among divisions and afc- nfc back and forth of international game hosts i don’t see this coming out if it was a road game.

I’d hire him if our OC opens up or even have him as QB coach

It’s not when I trial contact was made. Their feet also made contact. Thry colidaded and made contact on the side. read the actual rule book.

it depends…was he a PS transfer to roster vs a cut. either way the giants coukd take him. It was reported as a claim from the PS that I read.

there feet entangle causing the trip thrydont call that on pass plays. They aren’t calling that thrn. His push was more of a stumble and he braced against him. First contact was in the feet with both running.

I wonder if chuck knoblauch can kick extra points…. if you don’t get the joke read his wiki profile

it was not a block in the back. They collided and he fell. There was not a block in the back. You are allowed to fight for position when running and block from the side.
