In the NFL 2 weeks is a long time ago!

I’ve watch them both! There is no comparison. You are taking a generic quarterback issue and then making a specific comparison that is way off. A ton of young quarterbacks have this issue. With your criteria, you could just as easily compare him to a young Farvre.

OK. I guess I see it. But I like my take on it better.

I must be missing something. Why is it slightly better for us if the Chiefs win? It seems to me that it’s in our best interest for both the Chiefs and the raiders to pile up losses. So whichever one of them wins the division, the other will be a week wildcard contender and less competition for us.

I hope this means they have found their mojo.

Bobby Burnett in 1966. AFL ROY then disappeared.

Wow! Just wow! I respect all the opinions and statements but this thread needs its title changed to “for irrational catastrophic thinking bills fans only“ it was a tough loss, it happens. And, would the majority of you rather not be 6-3. I think that’s a fair question

That’s really sad

The game concerns me too. So many are saying that Cleveland is due to play a good game. That may be. But so are the bills! I do believe that if the bills play one entire game at a high level they beat the best of game of the Browns

To me, the whole point of a discussion is to air varying viewpoints, negative, positive and anything in between. I also think in this context some good-natured debate and even some good-natured “trash talking“ is OK. This can make it fun sometimes. Maintaining some sense of decency and mutual respect is all that I would ask for.

I agree with this. For weeks now all of the chicken Littles on this board who focus on everything but the bills actually winning games is getting tiresome. However, if they do come out flat against Cleveland I might be nudged in their direction.

I prefer to save my dread and angst about that game starting Thanksgiving week. This is too soon for me. Besides, the Jets beat them for chrissakes!

Alan only passed for 160 yards because for 2 quarters of the game they were going against a strong wind. Same for the Skins.

I’m sharing it all the good feeling right now. But, yes, this is Wayne not over.

And my guess is they will figure out Jackson in due time. He’s flashing right now on national TV. But sooner or later, and my guess is sooner, they figure him out.

They tried a tight end screen pass to him in the first half. As far as I can remember, that was his only target. Oh, and it didn’t work

At least the rush defense figured it out for the second half. I hope this is a good omenAt least the rush defense figured it out for the second half. I hope this is a good omen

Missed pass interference call followed by an atrocious punt. Damn!

OK, I suppose there is something to that. But ultimately, wins is an outcome measure that you are trying to predict with metrics. To me that is fundamental to this discussion. The metrics are the many variables that may or may not predict the only important statistic which is wins. So it may be a matter of semantics. To me the metrics are the variables and wins is the outcome measure.

Don’t mean to pile on here but ......If Hughes and Oliver don’t get at least two sacks each out of the five or more then it’s a bad day.

Wins are not metrics. They are what metrics try to predict.

The Bills are 5-2 and you’re talking about “failure”? ............way too much anxious ruminating on this board. ?

No, I think he’s right. Let’s see. The Bengals, the Falcons, the dolphins, the Jets, the Broncos and the Redskins, all in apparent freefall. Throw in the giants, the browns and the Buccaneers as trending in that direction. I think this is atypical, also.

My compliments. An impressive amount of data and an appropriately cautious interpretation of it. The validity of any genuine correlation between 300 yard passing games and playoff appearances further suffers because there are too many significant uncontrolled variables. These would include, among others, your team’s defense, the other team’s defense and strength of schedule. In my opinion, there’s no compelling reason to believe that a quarterback must have a 300 yard passing game to help get his team into the playoffs.

Yes! Now this makes sense. It is the correct take regarding this issue! A notable minority of posters on this board have a genuine fetish about 300 yard passing games. You know what gets me aroused, wins. And that is the only statistic that matters. It is a truism that you are what your record says you are. The Bills are 5-2!That is all that matters.
