[Was this the best performance from a Bills offense we've ever seen?]

It was nothing short of perfection. So yes. You can’t be better than perfect.

[Micah Hydes Interception]

One of the best picks I’ve ever seen. Looked like Willie Mays covering that closing distance to make an incredible catch!

[Singletary is a Stud]

He’s been really incredible the past few weeks and especially last night. I still hope they get another quality back soon to push him and share carries, but he’s proven he can be a really effective lead back. His vision and awareness last night was incredible. Exact right cut at the exact time, following blockers, letting the play develop... really something.

Nice. Enjoy. Was in Isla Mujeres for a few days…. If you are going there at all stay away from a pizza restaurant called “Pizza Rock”…. Had food poisoning from that place and was vomiting for a good 14 hours on Monday. 👍🏻

Not on the agenda this trip. That place is incredible though. Playa Norte is one of the most incredible beaches I’ve ever seen. Love the scene down there in general!

 

Sorry to hear about your gut! I can pretty much set my watch to getting some kind of stomach issue every time I go to Mexico lol. Hopefully it won’t be THAT bad this time.

 

Go Bills.

Nice. we’re jumping on a plane at 6am Sunday morning for Cozumel. Don’t think I’ll be sleeping before we need to leave for the airport. Hope it’s because of overwhelming joy and not crushing depression.

Thanks!

 

This is actually the first time any team but New England has won the AFCE back to back since Bill Belichick was hired in 2000. That’s an unbelievable run by NE that will likely never be matched. Not saying I think your run is over, just that going 21 years without losing the division 2 season in a row is incredible.

 

Their run is over.

[Jerry Hughes’ Last Regular Season Home Game?]

All time great Bill. Great career. He’s not putting up sack numbers, but he’s still effective this year. There’s more to rushing the passer than just sack stats. He still collapses the pocket and keeps QBs from escaping outside. 

[Somethings GOT to be done a the interior o line]

It’s actually impressive how bad Feliciano has been. It’s not easy to be that noticeably bad from the guard spot. He’s not just playing “below average.” He’s being completely dominated and committing mental errors/costly penalties on top of it. Incredibly bad.

[Dolphins @ the Bills - Tricks or Treats 2021 - 2nd half thread]

Feliciano is just a total liability out there.

Why is he out?  Get the ***** to bed!  #notateamplayer #cuthim #somethingsomethingsomething

 

I don't see anyone here actually in an uproar about Manny Sanders being at the bar, but just to the hypothetical individual out there who might be tempted to feel that way, just a few thoughts:

• He is a grown man and can do whatever he wants.
• You are not a Bills coach or in any way involved in the organization. You have no need to stress yourself worrying about what potential curfews or team rules that may or may not exist.
• You are just a fan, and as a fan, this is so dope. If you are one of the cool people who made the trip to Nashville and got to party with Sanders for a few minutes in this bar, you rock.

[Gilmore released]

There's no way he's coming back without a big new contract. I don't think the Bills have the cap space for this. Not worth it. There will be other needs to fill in the offseason that need to be accounted for. I doubt a high priced veteran CB coming off injury fits the McBeane plan.

[Highmark Stadium now requiring vaccination for entry]

I went to a few concerts this summer where proof of vaccination was required. It was easy and didn't cause any delays. Someone looks at your card or a picture of your card on a phone and your ID before you hit the normal security and metal detectors. The vac check did not slow the line down at all. It's still the normal security going through the mags where the hold up is. So, not a "***** show" at all.

 

I mean maybe if someone decided to throw a tantrum or give an angry ted talk to the person checking cards about their opposition to vaccines it would slow things down, but when people act like adults who had enough common sense to look up the entry policy before they arrived, it seems to be pretty seamless.

[Did you play football, at any level?]

Played all 4 years of college ball at defensive end. D-III. It definitely made me aware of how your body reacts much differently to age/injury playing the game than it did in high school. It also leaves me amazed that NFL players have a 4 game preseason, 16 game regular season, followed by even more playoff games. It's crazy. I think a 14 game schedule with 1-2 preseason games would be much better, personally. Too many key players are banged up for the playoffs/super bowl these days. But they'll never shorten the season, of course, because $.

Defense was brutal in the 4th quarter til the final stop.  Gotta maintain that juice for the full 60.

 

Yeah, that's true. They went to sleep a bit after getting up 14. That happened several times early in the year when the offense built a big lead in the first half, too. Haven't seen it in awhile. Hopefully that was the wakeup call they needed. 

[Colts May Have Been Exactly What the Bills Needed]

I agree that it was good for them to face adversity. Honestly, I think they were a little too amped up at times, especially early in the game. The team seemed to settle in as things went on for the most part. I'm hoping they are calm and confident coming out on Saturday. They just need to stay loose and do what they've done all year!

[The colts fumble that was not called]

I’m hoping it just might be in the back of the refs minds that they owe the Bills one for this next game.

[Marshawn Lynch Would Un-Retire For A Contender]

I'm intrigued. But Beane wouldn't do it.

I couldn't believe they did that, last night.  I thought was hilarious.

 

That said, I'd love to know the background behind why they did it.  It was so unusual.

 

I mean, Beasley is baby sized. So that's probably a running joke in the locker room. Plus Josh Allen is dad, so there's that too. https://twitter.com/BUFSportsTalk/status/1309571204978802690?s=20

All I can keep thinking about is the year they started 5-0 under Trent Edwards, who is no Josh Allen....he wasn't even Joe Dufek (look it up) and then went 2-8 or something like that.    But a very familiar feeling so far - we're all pretty giddy right now.  Allen looks fantastic as does the entire offense.  Need to get the defense shored up for the games coming.  Should be a fun ride....

 

As long as JA stays healthy, that's not happening. As you said, he is not Trentative. He's as far from that as you can get. He won't let the team go in the tank, even if there are some tough losses here and there.

[Gameday Thread Bills @ Raiders 2nd Half]

Why don’t they ever check out of blitzes on D? Offense will hard count, linebackers will tip their hand where they’re coming from, offense clearly makes an adjustment, then the Bills still bring the same blitz. Frazier has to have them checking out of blitzes sometimes. 

[Can someone explain the Josh Allen hate from Bomani Jones and Dominique Foxworth??]

Screw em. I bet they think Tyrod Taylor was or is still a better QB than Allen.

His game is def not read option

 I’d definitely be fine with less read option. But they should definitely design some 3 and 5 step QB draws on first and second downs that give him the option to just hit the dirt if the space to run isn’t there. Those type of plays force them to keep defenders home across the middle, opening up more downfield. Mix in a few run/pass option sprint outs, and then of course JA will just take off when there’s an opportunity to do so. Running is a huge part of his game, and he’s great at it. He’s getting much better at not taking big hits. And dude is still a tank. He can take a tackle.
