  1. HORRIBLE, PATHETIC performance by the offense (including coaching) nuff said!
  2. Doug what's right hand doing man?
  3. Listening to people talk about the Ravens reminds me how quickly and easily teams become mythological and indomitable. The Ravens appear to be some combination of the Early 80s Chargers, NIners mid-late 80-90s, and 60s Packers.....On defense they are Steel Curtain, 2000 Ravens and 85 Bears. People are making me scared!
  4. Just Joshin with ya! No pun intended.
  5. My answer to this thread? Not a problem. My only fear is that by accident, they get someone who knows what they're doing and they listen to him.
  6. Bills manage to get up early, they contain the Ravens and force a couple FGs and a TO 14-6 lead at half. Josh and the offense play a similar game as they did in Dallas and put up 2 TDs. By the second half, the Ravens need to pass more to catch up and it leads to the Bills sacking and pressuring LJ and getting a pick for a short field, Josh takes it in after a short drive.. We get a FG, the Ravens get TD and 2 point conversion. Bills 24-14
  7. IMO we need to be aggressive defending on first down and attack the line of scrimmage. I think getting some tackles for loss and stuffs on first down and perhaps turnovers are our best chance. They seem to win first down a lot and dictate to teams after that.
  8. The only sad part of this is Jax might luck into a good coach when they fire this group.
  9. The gift that keeps on giving. McD seat temp is getting higher! SMH
  10. Time to start selling insurance!
  11. The Cowboys strike me as an overconfident bunch, and they shouldn't be.
  12. That just shows that the powers that be haven't been giving the Cowboys the correct opponent!
  13. I felt like Nantz, Romo, CBS and the rest of the football media people were playing catch up yesterday. The Bills threw their usually narrative a curve. Romo was the best at recovering, some of these other dudes were trying to recover from not knowing, watching, and creating the trash narrative of the Bills. He at least knew something real about Josh. It wasn't the usual lazy BS.
  14. LOL,So have I. The Clown Show that is social media and now they all have a voice.
  15. Yeah I agree, that is a popular thing these days that I find annoying.
  16. Pats are one of the poorest running team in league 30th ypc at 3.3. Don't bother using facts.
  17. Uh that is not entirely correct as I understand it. There are certain sample sizes that become meaningful for different things base on trials. 16 sounds small, but for football it may be sufficiently meaningful. I don't know, but you could test it if you want to. I know that the infamous Tangotiger, has stated that for teams at the MLB level you need to add 70 games 35 wins and 35 losses to a teams record to show you how meaningful it is. Therefore if you're 2-0, you figure it as 37-35, or 0-10 35-45. See you are depending on the regression to tell you how much you know. So after 2 games not so much. After 162 games with 100 wins, you therefore can tell true talent level as 135 W and 97 L, figure the %. In football, he says the number is more like 12 games 6 W 6L. As I stated earlier, I don't know, and you likely don't know, what sample size is needed for 4th down %. But, it could be that it is a small sample size or not. And, it is the number of trials or attempts not games. Usually, the more trial the more accurate, but at a certain level you stop gaining new info.
  18. Yes they are college open in many cases. As I've said before, these unstoppable offenses come along every now and then and are all the rage. The 81 Chargers, 88 Bengals, Greatest show on turf, 91 Bills etc. They all get figured out eventually or just out talented. That doesn't mean they become incompetent, people just figure out a way to slow it down and beat it.
  19. Cribbs also returned punts for the Bills. I remember him trying to fair catch one against the Jets his rookie year. With his head and hand up to catch the ball, the gunner from the Jets stuck his helmet right on his chinstrap at full spreed. For some reason he may have fumbled it. I can't remember if he there was a penalty called, but just for a stories sake lets just say it wasn't called.
