Miyagi-Do Karate

I know Devin has improved from last year, but watching moss and DS on the field, Moss just brings so much more to the table. He hits the hole harder, is a short yardage bruiser, is very good out of the backfield catching the ball, and is a very good blocker. Beyond that, if the Bills go to that read option/RPO stretch action they ran a lot of during the WFT game, Moss is a much more instinctive and decisive runner. Devin was lost out there on those runs, just getting swallowed up looking for a crease. The stats from last game bear this out, with Moss having 13/60 (plus 30 rec yards), and Singletary with 11/26. I think we need both guys, but I would like to see the split be more like 80/20, than 50/50.

hope to play next week? He needs to take it easy with that sort of injury.

Looks like even you have fallen for the trap. trap games get fans too.

These guys love their low character guys. Is there a team with more guys with criminal records or substance abuse/suspension histories?

Ooof— talk about an awkward post-game handshake between LaFleur and Shanahan.

was thinking the same thing. No real deep attempts by WFT. Bills only had a couple, so maybe it was the wind.

Classic trap game. We have the chiefs and Titans the following two weeks!! these guys better be focused on the texans. Culley has them playing hard.

Haha— in the minority? Even packers’ fans feel the same way. He is as miserable a player I have ever seen.

but that’s the only play there. You let the ball hit the ground and it is a live ball. I am pretty sure it is ST 101 That on short high kicks, the guy closest to it calls a fair catch, even if it means the up guy. To me, that was a mental mistake/coaching failure more than a wind issue.

i would agree with that. But you cannot let that ball hit the ground. I am going to go and re-watch it, but it was either on McK or the up guys to fair catch that.

BTW, that FOX broadcast was unwatchable. They refuse to show hardly any replays too.

No way is that KO freakish. That is just a total mental error— and something that has to be coached into these guys. Short kick like That— you go get it and call a fair catch.

you could be right. The ST breakdowns thus far are almost all on coaching (eg, punt block and today’s short KO).

If I had one criticism of this game, it was ST. In 3 games this year, I think we have been outplayed on ST in at least two of those games. Today, it was the KO turnover and a penalty negating the nice McKenzie return. They did down the one punt inside the 5. But I think they lost the ST battle overall today. we invest too much in ST to have it be a real negative mark on this team.

Edwards plays on his heels. Every other guy on this D seems to fly around and toward the ball, and he just strikes me as always taking a step in the wrong direction on every play.

Agree. I will give them the Gibson play. The McKenzie KO was just a dumb mistake.

Since they are using Knox more, Davis is the odd man out.

The d-line’s stuff on the 4th down sneak was worth the price of admission.

I think you guys are being too hard on him. He has a huge ceiling, IMO. if I am Rivera, I think about giving him a long hard look as the starter. (The forcing thing is more of a maturity thing— you’d rather see that than a Charlie checkdown).

he’s not really though “who he is.” He has 2 starts. his ceiling seems high. The guy is super mobile, great presence, good arm and accuracy. His guys dropped like a thousand balls. All I know is that in his two games, he looks better than any other new starting QB’s I have seen in a long time.

By the way, I thought Heinecki looked good today. Great mobility And his fade to Thomas was text book. I think he will be the long term starter there. He just needs some more weapons and a good defense.

Steelers loss was the best thing to happen to this team— specifically, for Daboll. We win that game and we are still running these empty sets and throwing the ball 100 Times. The balance and use of Knox and the RBs in the passing game has really helped the offense.

he needed to run up and fair catch it.

no— think it was AJ.

Gotta keep contain against this guy.
