Milano and Edmunds will have to be great next week for us to have a shot.

This was a great win. An awesome win even. The best win the Bills have had in a long time. While I am not taking away anything from this win, I am going to hold off at least 1 more week to see how they handle the Ravens. That challenge is on a whole different level. Today was great, but next week will be a real test.

Josh Allen - week THIRTEEN report card
sven233 replied to rayray808's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Yeah....this was about as solid as an "A" grade can be. The best game of his career. Statement game. -
Honestly, his footwork is much improved since college. You are starting to see less and less of 5 and 7 step drops as a whole in the NFL. Offenses are now being designed to be more quick hit, get the ball out in order to limit the pass rush. With Allen, they have simplified this even further. They are using his long stride to their advantage. Because of his stride length, he can get to prper depths a little quicker with less steps. This keeps him on platform more often as he doesn't have to think about his feet as much. As for the bouncing, many great QBs do this. It keeps the QB on his toes and ready to move his feet at any given moment. Allows the QB to stay active and engaged the entire play. But yeah, overall, Allen's footwork, while not perfect all the time, is night and day better than where it was in college and it has translated to improved throws this season.

Our Offensive Strategy May Not Be to Win
sven233 replied to Tolstoy's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
It's a passing league. You pass to score points. I have no problem with them passing the ball a lot and trying to win that way. It's time for the Buffalo Bills to step out of the dark ages and try and compete in a league that is passing them by......literally. Now, does that mean they are using all these throws correctly? NO!!!! Most every pass is being designed for WRs to hook up, square in or square out to the sidelines, and come back to the ball. They are hardly running enough plays that are designed to get run after the catch which is how a lot of offenses put up big passing numbers. Now, I don't know if this is because they have determined Allen can't throw slants, crossers, etc. effectively enough on a regular basis or if this is just the general scheme of our offense in general. But whatever. We have a long way to go on offense whichever way you want to put it. But, I have absolutely no problem with trying to light up the scoreboard throwing the ball all over the place. We've had 20 years of ground and pound and it has gotten us nothing. But, with the offense the way it is designed, and the lack of overall talent on the offensive side of the ball outside a few guys, I'm not sure our version of this passing offense will work. But, I have no problems with them trying to build an offense around the passing game in general. -
NFC Slug-Fest: Hawks @ 9ers

What a wild game...... Fun stuff. And look, no huddling to waste 30 seconds off the clock to settle for a 53+ yard FG on grass. -

Josh Allen can't seem to throw ahead of a receiver

Not true. I see him throwing ahead of the receives every time he throws a deep ball...... /Ducks -

Nick Filipowski @NEWS4_NICK·2m Devin Singletary hasn't touched the ball since the 12:52 mark of the 2nd quarter -- on an 8 yard gain. Makes a lot of sense..... -

Man....the Browns getting that false start may have cost us 3 points. -
Game Thread 1st Half Bills vs Browns

Man....I wish that terrible game that Josh Allen had against the Pats* never happened. Ever since that game, he has hardly pushed the ball down the field and has been scared into taking no chances at all. The play calling got substantially more conservative as well. You can trace a lot back to that game and it pisses me off that because of 1 bad game, everything since has been so conservative.
