While Q. Williams would be an obvious upgrade and assistance to our defensive line, I'm concerned with spending more capital (either cap or draft) to add yet more to what is already the highest paid D-line in the NFL. I'd prefer to add to that with the draft or FA next year pending Star's situation, and look for an additional LB with either outstanding SLB play against the run/edge or cover and rush ability. One is a need consistently (SLB), the other hedges our bets with Milano wither from and injury perspective or a future cost perspective.

My opinion, the worst coaching job that Belichick has performed is this year but he still has time to turn it around. And by worst/turn it around I mean playing competitive but losing football. The best outcome AFC-E teams could ask for would be competent playing by the Pats leading to at least 6 wins. That virtually assures they aren't in the running for getting or trading for a top 2 draft position. I know saying tank is considered heretical in the NFL, and that you'll lose the respect of your players, no real NFL player would not try his hardest to win, etc. etc. That goes out the door with a coach that has Belichick's reputation to say nothing of the decimation of the team due to COVID and a more-than-usual amount of loss in free agency. Imagine a Pats team that only wins one more game and drafting #2 with potential to trade for #1 - or worse, getting a farmload of picks for someone who wants to trade up to #2. They and Miami would each have a bunch of picks, and could theoretically remake their teams in one offseason.

Thanks - fixed it.

In Italy now. Got here just before the season started. Not much difference between Afghanistan and Ital.....sorry, I couldn't keep a straight face long enough to type that.

Still need it? I didn't put the full game up on the site, but I can. @Giuseppe Tognarelli already posted the link to my page with the 40-minute condensed version above.

Apparently the "revisionist history" coment was was missed. Although, you did include it in your quote. Well, I prefer to assume you missed it in answer to your follow-up question, rather than assume you're not astute enough to understand. Either way, you did see the multiple posts in this thread and leading up to that game where - as I stated - at the time of the gamme most pundits had the Steelers as the *significantly* better team. Why does that matter now that we know who won? Because going into that game (and during it) the music, the court of popular opinion, general professional consenus...they all impact psyche and are psychological warfare. Whether intentional or not. Were the 2015-2016 Cleveland Cavaliers a better team than the GSW that year? No one thought so. Even after winning the championship, would you bet on them to win again if they played another 7-game series the next week (probably not.) Would you bet your house the Bills would beat the Steelers again if they replayed that game? Maybe 6 out of 10 times, I'd be comfortable. And that's with the benefit of history helping me choose. The Steelers were not significantly worse than the Bills, especially given the circumstances of the game. The Bills lost two of their last three games too, remember. As to whether they "were not a good team" I can only say, again, they were not signifcantly worse than the Bills, even after losing to the Bills. So every little thing matters in those games (as in most NFL games.) Quit changing history to fit your agenda. I appreciate a dissenting opinion, but not one that is made without logical reasoning and only to incite emotion. Good day, sir.

Revisionist history. Most major sports outlets picked the Steelers as the easy win. To this day I don't know why you even participate in this board. Not trying to throw shade, but peeople talk about this forum like it's a good message board. It is, but not with incessantly depressed and misinformed, misguided, or just plain wrong posters as the content providers.

I wonder what their reaction is when people say JA is a bad quarterback because of the Houston playoff game. Even if they only watched ONE Dallas game last year and it was the Bills-Dallas game, I'm not sure how you say Dak is a mediocre QB given his stats against the Bills, arguably the best passing defense in the NFL. His team didn't win, and he had a couple bad plays at the end trying to force a win. But most of the game he was terrific. Kind of like a QB and game I remember in the playoffs against Houston. All that said, in a vacuum do I think Dak is a better QB than JA right now talking purely on field ability? Yes. Do I think the Bills go further THIS year with Dak than JA - actually I can't definitively say yes to that, but put a gun to my head and I'd probably choose Dak right now to win one game. Do I trade JA for Dak at this point in their careers, my expected trajectory for both, and impact to team performance? Hell no.

First: thank you for linking that. Those guys - Murph included - were brutal. Hilarious. Second: if "basically" called him a ***** = what Fitz said "...and to Doug Whaley. Thank you so much for showing my son Braden what a spineless ***** really looks like" then we must be looking at different definitions of "basically". I had no idea they hated him so much. Even Aaron Williams came on stage to applaud that comment. (P.S. I think the best one was Murph's roast of Fitz and Travis Henry during Fitz's intro. You'll have to watch that one; no way I could do it justice.)

If your jersey purchase selection is any indicator of your player analysis prowess...I'm liking the Epenesa pick even more.

Although not the point of this thread, if you are not in the US (or a very limited list of non-US countries) you can't access it, period. I.E. for those of us deployed, they just outright block it. Because you know, all the US military who are deployed are hacker/cyber-terrorists. Yes, I can use a VPN. Which, if I actually were trying to hack the site, is exactly what I would do anyway. They block it because it doesn't match up with their advertising profile. Even though anything I buy is from the US. Their loss.

They may have an agenda. Similar to certain posters on this board. If not clear enough - they want to prove their prognostications of failure for Josh through any means possible, including faulting him for being the primary playmaker on the team. Your posts also tend toward the "Josh-hater" side rather than the neutral side as well, although it may be just anti-Bills in general. Of the posts I've read of yours, they are either anti-Allen or anti-bad calls against the Bills. None defend any possibility that a pro-Bill comment could be correct.

You mean when he had two defensive players on a free rush to him with less than 2 seconds to do anything? Yeah - that's not really on Josh.

I still want him to redo the 2014 video with the new Bills. Set to Rudy, great video (just need to get rid of the EJ/Sammy shots...)

Finding Mr. Right? Motoring!

I kind of agree with him using his likeness for the beer sales. I suppose there's technically no difference between the Bills using his likeness for "advertising"/"ticket sales" then there is for a beer company, but he tacitly approved of the Bills with the original intent of the video. While I think his going after the Bills is in poor taste (I can't speak to the legality), I think the beer company using his image without approval is in even worse taste. Which is probably appropriate, given what I've heard about the beer...

https://www.newyorkupstate.com/buffalo-bills/2019/12/why-buffalo-bills-loss-to-patriots-was-still-a-win-for-josh-allen.html The second was maybe the best play he’s made in his NFL career. Under pressure, Allen stood in the pocket, saw receiver John Brown make a filthy move on a Patriots cornerback and floated it out perfectly to the streaking speedster. *cough* Gilmore *cough* Total TDs given up during coverage for the 2019 season so far: Tre' White - 0 Stephon Gilmore - 1

"You guys are one and done" Dude, you're either a liar, or delusional, or both. That's okay though. You had better hope the Bills are a LOT better than you like to act, or the Pats are one and done too. it's going to be great enjoying the schadenfreude of you Pats fans as Brady drives your team into mediocrity.

Should be Tre's face on the dog.

Few new Bills O-line players on there. Ty Nsekhe and...Baldy McNutt (click below for that part)

It's also the offense that saw the 49er's and Kaepernick look bad enough that they replaced him at QB and eventually in the NFL, and had Taylor drop 10 point in QBR and throw for 17 TDs in his second year. Athough...arguably due to Roman being fired, I suppose Greg Roman should never have been fired for a team whose defense played terribly. But I'm not certain there's enough history to say that Roman's scheme isn't going to be figured out. So far, every offense gets figured out (see: Miami WIld Cat to Bills K-Gun to Rams 2018 season.) The question is whether the players and coaches are good enough to come up with another good offensive scheme. Lamar is crazy athletic. Enough so that as long as he has a decent O-line, I have a feeling he'll do pretty well regardless of whether this scheme gets "figured out." But I don't believe for a second that this scheme is so impenetrable that it won't be. Hell, right now I'd say the trick is take Mark Andrews out of the game. Preferably by coverage rather than injury like against the Bills, but minus a blown coverage against Hurst once Andrews left it was a different game.

You should really try a new dedicated search engine. I hear AltaVista is up and coming.
