No way the Bills will pay monster contracts for guards. Unless there is a long term issue with Dawkins, i see him and Brown as tackles, Morse at center and 2 new guards next season.

I was thinking the opposite. This is just horrible. They should just skip the halftime music. Go back to marching bands.

I knew that, but an NFL head coach definitely needs to know that. Also, if they had 11 players , not 10 on the field, they wouldn't have to call time out. Just a horrible game with 2 terrible teams with 2 bad coaches.

Better team usually wins. It's pretty simple. If teams are evenly matched, maybe the crowd noise effects QB signals, but that's about it. Ask yourself, why would a team playing at home give them any significant advantage? It's not like baseball where the ballparks are different and you tailor you team to your park dimensions. Yep, when we got the ball at the 2 minute mark left in the first half, that was our third possession of the day.

They owe it to their teammates to make every reasonable effort to be ready to play each week. This is selfish in my opinion too.

entitled? What does that even mean in this context? You gonna call me 'deep state' next?

The Steelers game was a wakeup call. The Titans game was a wakeup call, The Jax game was a wakeup call... we hear this after every loss this season. Wakeup call, learning experience, blah blah blah

Lack of sacks were not the reason we lost today, far from it.

That was only our 3rd possession of the game. And we only had 2 minutes to use that drive. Defense needs to step up.

So is this game another learning experience? Will be our 4th this season.

You implied that running more screens and quick passes will help negate the issues of a poor line, so yes, getting away with bad lineman. I never said anything about finding good lineman by sunday, never even thought about something like that. You can't hide bad line play, hopefully they play well enough that Allen has some time to throw the ball and not just dump passes. That won't work.

Not if you were watching.

I think it's impossible to deny the positive impact Brown has had on the line. He's helped greatly improve 40% of our line by being a better RT than Williams and Williams is a better right guard than anyone else that has played that position. It's impossible to not see the impact he has made.

Saying we need good lineman refutes the notion that you think we could get away with bad lineman. It just doesn't work that way. No, I don't think it creates hesitation on the dline. I honesty think you're trying to fool yourself into thinking that this isn't that big of an issue.

You don't think teams would be on the look out for more screens, for more quick passes? Teams could focus on defending against that. And you need good lineman, there's no getting around it.

I really don't think you can cover up a weak oline.

If you aren't concerned about the Patriots, you should be.

are the Bills the most hyped 6-3 team that lost to Jax?

Just in case you weren't sure it was a question?

Good thing we didn't trade our dline depth.

Really hitting all around the league right now. Hope the players aren't getting careless, would really mess up the season for some teams.

If the line played better, we can live by the pass, like last season. But that's no longer the case. Lost in much of this is 3/5 , 60% of our line did not have the starter playing . That's significant. We fix 40% of that tomorrow with Brown and Williams. That's also significant.

You really can't go in expecting to fool the defense. You have two options, run and pass. You need to execute both well without playing a guessing game with the defense.

The 'talent' has nothing to do with the broadcast of games. ESPN + , for $6.99 is a great deal.

I'm sure if there was a player that could help, he would go after him. He did draft 3 lineman this past year and one of them will be starting RT Sunday, when Brown was in the lineup and Williams moved to RG, the line was much better. Hopefully that will be the case on Sunday.
