Andy Dalton benched in Cincy
PlayoffsPlease replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
1. Reading comprehension is important. 2. I was just stating what I think the Bills will do, not what they should do. On the substance of moving on, Allen has improved from year 1 to year 2 both statistically and according to any reasonable "eye test". It seems pretty stupid to argue that people are "holding on" when a young QB is still improving. -

I think it is more likely that Daboll gets the rest of this season with Allen, and if the progress seems stalled, then they look to see if Allen will improve with a different OCs. Even if Daboll is competent, he is not special and pretty easy to replace. #7 overall pick QBs in the draft are much rarer, and I think the Bills will investigate the new OC angle, before giving up on him. In a league where Ryan Fitzpatrick and Ryan Tannehill and Case Keenum are starting QBs, I think it is likely Dalton sees himself as a starter, not an exceptional backup. -
Why does he not have the freedom to be offended?

Allen has 17 games played. Dalton 128. Maybe somewhere in the middle is good. To me the logical point to stop is when there is on further improvement and the status quo is not good enough. Allen is far from that problem right now. -
it is almost as if after a bad decision some fat ####### berats him on the sideline in front of 70,000 people.

This thread should be re-titled 'National media challenges Bills, Bills fail to step up"

Is it because he had a non-contact injury before he had less than 50 carries in a season? Agree with everything in the bolded part. Daboll is terrible or Allen is terrible, or they are terrible together. Not one element of the offense has seemed to improve as the season as gone on.

Is Tremaine Edmunds the answer at MLB?
PlayoffsPlease replied to KOKO NFL's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As I understand it, Edmunhds is the first MLB in NFL history to play before going through puberty. By the time Tom Brady retires in 2029, I think Edmunds will be firing on all cylinders every play in every game. We must be patient. -
How do we fix the run defense?
PlayoffsPlease replied to Brianmoorman4jesus's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Step 1. Find some space eaters. Step 2. Watch every day fans ask: WTF are these guys doing Step 3. Watch super posters explain that the average fan is ######ed because they don't know the role of the space eater. Step 4. Repeat. -
At any given time less than 10%-15% of the starting NFL QBs are shorter than 6' 2" . The challenge is finding players that have both of the items above. Sean McVay seems to see the field better than anyone and is a rainman like genius in recalling playbooks and situations. He played wide receiver in college. I suspect this is because he did not have the physical skills to be a QB. Russell Wilson has major league baseball caliber arm strength. So did younger Drew Brees. Older Drew Brees is no arm strength slouch either. I think the physical skill that separate short Wilson and Brees and tall Tom Brady from other players with equally strong arms and pretty good brains is unbelievable accuracy with the football. I suspect if the NFL held a dart tournament for 100 million dollars, Brady or Wilson would win it. I suspect 20 NFL QBs would see the same tight windows that the Brady Brees and Wilson see. They also know they don't have the ability to hit that window and don't throw it, or if they throw it have a higher miss percentage. College football defenses are so inferior to NFL defenses that college QBs don't really need to throw to tight windows. Guys like Brees and Wilson in college used their excellent field vision to find the wide open guys. Its a very hard skill to assess.

Letting everyone passively know you live with nice weather, can afford a houseboat and have a drinking problem all in one short post. Kudos on the multi-messaging. -

any reason the Patriots can't cut and resign him like they just did with Ben Watson? -

Well you either don't understand the point, or are just simply wrong. Its not clear. -
The lose-lose media narrative vs Eagles
PlayoffsPlease replied to benderbender's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is not actually true. Plays need to be designed and called the fit the players abilities to execute. Simple example the QB sweep is a very good play for the Bills, not a very good play for the Patriots. If the Patriots call that and it fails because Brady is slow, its not really Brady's fault. This is a simple example, but it actually applies to all 11 players on the field on every single play. -

are they going to take a win away if we lose? That seems unfair. I guess the NFL really does hate the Bills.
