  1. Hope Tre feels a little better now. We need to get “budding superstar” Dane Jackson off the field. Always in position but can’t make a play on the ball to save his life. 
     

    Depth being tested but our playmakers are making plays when they need to. Oliver was huge today. Milano missed a couple but also made a couple. Obviously Allen -> Diggs.

     

    I think they tried to use Cook too much today. He didn’t have it and Motor did. Felt like we wasted a couple series trying to work Cook in. Feed Motor. He is good! Cook is still putting it together.
     

    McKenzie also came through today in spots.

    Sorry man, I'm not buying that you are a McD skeptic. 

     

    The interaction between Diggs and McD clearly showed that the two have a mutual respect for one another. No one here really ever questions the character of McD. He's likeable and is a man of character. 

     

    On the other hand, I think it's important to talk about the build up prior to the

    Diggs/ McD interaction. What caused Diggs to come face to face with McD? Was McD close to losing the team? Why wasn't Diggs being targeted more? What was the Bills game plan? Why did the Bills look so off for almost all of the first half? Were the Bills flat? How prepared and motivated did they look? How much of their ineffectiveness falls on the Bills coaching, schemes, and play calling? 

     

    The Bills looked terrible for the first quarter and most of the second quarter. Coaching which includes McD absolutely deserves plenty of blame for this. The season was on the verge of being lost and McD was probably close to losing the player's confidence. With that being said, you have to give the coaching staff its positives for coming out of halftime and dominating the game. Both sides of the ball played pretty well. Fraizer's defensive scheme to take Chubb out of play was a present surprise. Dorsey staying committed to the run was a welcome sight. 

     

    Today was a mixed bag for sure. I'll take the win under the difficult circumstances. The Bills were very fortunate to play the Browns who aren't good.  Credit the Bills for closing the door. A little dose of reality now. This team in its current state isn't a top tier team. Not even close. The injuries are just crippling an otherwise fantastic roster. Can you imagine the defense with Hyde, Poyer, Edmunds, Rousseau, and Tre? Not going to happen. Allen is not the elite QB we saw last year. I am hoping that guy returns asap. We have a consecutive 4 game sample of Allen's mediocrity. It's not all on him as the WR core is inconsistent minus Diggs, inconsistent run game, new OC Dorsey, and Oline issues. 

     

    In summary, I'm very happy with the Dubb. It's what the team needed. A loss would have been almost devastating. At the same time, I'm beginning to think the Super Bowl hopes are more fantasy than reality. Not giving up hope. Can't believe the Bills are 7-3 and I'm saying this. Look forward to others thoughts. 


    It’s not every week your team gets snowed in and can’t practice and also has to get flown out to Detroit to play what was supposed to be a home game. They looked a little sloppy, sure, but cut them aokw

    slack for the extenuating circumstances.

     

    Also dunno if you saw the graphic early in the game that showed the Browns with a large positive score differential in the first quarter and then it all goes down from there. 
     

    Maybe McDermott knew it might start rough but he knows they will figure it out. His players may not always make the plays, but I know he puts them in a position to make them. 

  3. My thoughts:

     

    Seems like Allen is struggling with certain throwing angles right now. Side arm especially. He made better decisions today and I just hope the injury remains manageable.

     

    Milano for 1st team All-Pro

     

    Edmunds for 2nd team. His absence was notable both last week and this week.

     

    Hamlin can play ball. I believe he will be one of our starting safeties next year. PI call was weak. 
     

    corner depth being tested. We got lucky on some dropped TDs and obviously we are struggling to make plays on contested catches.

     

    Gabe Davis is a roller coaster ride. 
     

    Lean on Knox more from now on. Good to see him involved today.

     

    Run game looked good albeit against a bad run D. I firmly believe Motor can ball and Cook is over his early season yips. Make teams respect the ground game.

     

    Hines is a revelation in the return game.

     

    Bass-o-matic baby.

    I’ll take him with me. Did you forget last weeks game as well? He’s way out of his depth. 


    We are talking about a 6th round rookie that wasn’t expected to play much this season being thrust into a starting role due to circumstances beyond his or the team’s control. Don’t know what you expect here. 
     

    That said, the CBs definitely need to work on making plays on the ball. We can only hope that Tre and Elam get out there soon.

  5. The interim head coach guided the team through all that Gruden turmoil and into the playoffs. That despite what was a very mediocre roster. Instead of giving Bisaccia the chance to take the helm for a full season, they decided to give big money to a proven HC failure. Not to mention every HC I can remember hired directly from the Belichick tree has failed in spectacular fashion. 
     

    Bad decisions on top of bad decisions by Davis.
