Billsfan1972

So right. We have a site where we can make our opinions known and post threads. I am not a lemming, nor do I buy into the excuses the FO & Coaching Staff makes. I watch football to be entertained and the Bills are my team. They are painful to watch and are so far behind the NFL trend it is pathetic. The Bills couldn't throw the ball then too...... The defense played takeaway and a lot of short fields..... In terms of passing yards they are in the bottom 3 the past 4 seasons and thankfully 2014 saw Kyle Orton light up the league and the Bills ranked 18!!!!!

Can anyone objectively watch a Bills game and enjoy them? Actually surprisingly the Ringer only had the Bills ranked in the bottom third in 2017 (scored high in Turnover & Takeaways). https://www.theringer.com/2018/9/7/17830476/nfl-watchability-sunday-viewing-guide Please no more saying Wins are all that matters, as that is false.

Everything went right for the Bills and they still didn't amass 300 yards in Offense (yes they shut it down the second half)....... See below..... http://www.espn.com/nfl/statistics/team/_/stat/total/sort/netYardsPerGame

Anyone who can watch a Bills game objectively and tell me it's enjoyable is delusional....... 13-12 and it was a snoozefest. The Viking game was over in the first quarter and and the three losses almost unwatchable. The Bills style may result in 4-5 wins max.......

No just wish I could watch a game that has some offence and back & forth. Quit pointing out the anomaly that was the Vikings game where the Bills didn't even have 300 yards TOTAL offence, and scored 27 of the 63 they've put up this year.

Pretty much spot on, along with rules that aid the offense. I swear this staff breaks out tapes from the 70's to prep and put in the game plan.

Again the point is the Bills drafted Allen as the future and need to develop thus. 19 pass attempts/game, no creativity, minimal talent and putting him in bad situations is not helpful. Only an idiot would not acknowledge the need to have an offense that people respect and are concerned to play against. It took Sean McVay's hiring to turn Goff into a QB, so lay the blame where it belongs on the Coach & FO.

Please no more winning ugly. Yep 1-2/yr is okay, but every week to watch this offense struggle, no creativity or wanting to move the ball downfield is makes it almost impossible to watch. 85 yards passing, 19 attempts and 1 TD in two weeks is unwatchable. I feel sorry for the fans who pay money and am thankful I can tape the game, have Picture in Picture on, switch to the NFL network and watch while on a bike getting exercise and reading too..... Does the Bills front office & coaches pay no attention to the fact that every winning team does it with an offense capable of moving the ball, throwing for 350+ (used to say 300, but 400 now easily done)? Yep before I get the stoopid responses "Then don't watch", unfortunately the Bills have been my team for 48 years and I will keep watching, however I am now having nightmares of Joe Ferguson and his 15 pass attempts/game..... This is 2018 not 1973......

Well then do that when Brady misses reads & open receivers & I'll agree with you. The issue is that almost every play has one receiver open and it comes down to whether the QB was given the right call, made the right decision and executed the play. Bueurlein went relentlessly after Allen on it seemed every play. I saw mistakes, but also 245 yards passing, which the Bills accomplished all of 4 times last year. Yesterday he threw for 170 in the first half and all of 7 pass plays in the second half.

He didn't play bad vs. the Chargers (or maybe the last 17 years of watching the Bills play may have coloured my opinion).

And he threw for 245, completed 60% of his passes and was competent in his first NFL game. Yes this week was easy, but Beuerlein continually was nothing but negative. Darnold walks on water by comparison.

I really hated how negative he was with respect to Josh Allen vs. the Chargers. I though he nit picked and expected him to make every correct read an d touch passes in his first start. Compare that to Romo yesterday and one wonders if the roles had been reversed. What I am finding is with these rookie QB's I'm paying very close attention to how they play and maybe more so how the commentators react.

Like every friggin qb in the league, open receivers are missed, there are passes under/over thrown and some bad reads....... Haven't seen the game (taped it), but heard three fumbles by Allen and that should be enough to critique him on.

I'm watching Darnold and we see good & bad..... Typical rookie and will see how he grows. Seems other rookies missing passes or not throwing to open receivers or making the right read is okay. But if you have a hate on for JA, then everything is a bad mistake.

Anyone watch Trubinsky last night....... A couple of good passes and many bad ones too.....

Seeing a lot of conversation as expected about his play, but that TD pass was a beauty and been a while since we've seen one zipped in like that. Again I'll be an optimist until proven otherwise as he was a high first round pick and can't afford for him to be a disaster. Would be nice if he had some receivers.

He threw it as far as he could, the receiver was the only one watching the trajectory and made the adjustment, we see this over and over in the NFL on passes heaved 63 years in the air.

Well he's only had 33 targets the first two weeks..... In 2016 that was 8 games of targets for Sammy Watkins......

He was the #7 pick....... You give him every chance to be your franchise qb. And he isn't a fifth round pick.

How about being impressed he threw it 63 yards in the air. I doubt the safety thought he had the arm to throw a tight pass that far.

Seen Eli complete that over and over to OBJ...... Yep every completion was lucky. BTW Eli threw for over 100 yards the last 2 possessions and most were check downs to RB's......

Don't remind me...... Oh and offense is no big deal according to McDermott.....

Really???? I guess I was wearing rose coloured glasses as it was not Peterman, wasn't embarrassing and over 200 yards passing....... Compare this to Goff in 2016 when he finally started in November..... http://www.espn.com/nfl/player/stats/_/id/3046779/jared-goff

I've been beaten into submission by just how bad this team is over the years. 245 yards passing had me happy.

In 2017 the Bills had 3 games with more passing yards...... The Bills have no receivers and we are trotting out a rookie. So after a decade of the Bills refusing to play Football the way it is being played by the majority of NFL teams (i.e. with a passing game), 245 seems like 350+ to me..... An easy comparison is Jared Goff and the putrid rookie campaign he put up and now with weapons and coaching that emphasizes the Offense is looking pretty good. I for one was okay with what I saw and hope that there continues to be progression (though concerned with the schedule). My biggest fear is an injury and the Peterman fans return on mass....
