BILLS55

First paragraph of the article states the teams will have played the previous Saturday giving them 4 days rest. It's the same as playing a Thursday night game, following a Sunday.

Benching Flutie and the Music City Miracle

I lot of what our Defense does in the 4th quarter or at the end of a game is affected by how offense plays. When you can't run the ball and pass 3 times with out converting it skus the time of possession way in favor of the other team. At one point last night it was 31 minutes to 18 minutes. This means are Defense is on the field 50% more then the other teams. They are gassed by the 4th quarter and by the end of the game they are done. Couple that with bad defensive play calling and it's a no win situation. If the offense would stick to the damn run and we can establish a run it will fix a lot of issue. But not the crappy coaching. MCD needs to go regardless.

Just saying this last night. So true. The Defense always chokes when it counts the most or we make a stupid mistake / penalties.

Sorry forgot about the 17th week. Still my point is they should have not played the London game as a home game knowing the circumstances with Jacksonville.

The fact of the matter is that if this game is played in Buffalo we win the game and probably don't loose Milano for the year. I think it ridiculous that we give up a home game to play a team that clearly has the advantage from playing in a time zone 5 hours ahead for two consecutive weeks on AstroTurf. Unfortunately as a fan getting mad at the situation is not going to change it. The team should have denied playing in London or at least after seeing it was the Jags who are playing two strait weeks in London agreed only if it was considered an away game. Yes we still loose but we keep 8 real home games.

Cooks and Harris are perfectly fine RBs. The issue is Dorsey and the way Josh is being coached. Daboll had Josh playing much more disciplined then Dorsey. Not sure if it's the play calling or what but it's not working. Dorsey may have been a great QB coach but as an OC he stinks. It feels like they are just letting Josh do what ever he wants instead of coaching up a game plan and sticking to it. Also someone has got to tell him to stop throwing his body around the field recklessly.

We need an Oline and run game to take the pressure off Josh. Him and Diggs are the only two guys we have. Josh has to be Superman every play of the game to beat a good team. A solid run game will fix a lot of offensive issues. The Defense was never good. We just always scored more points then the other team.

So not sure if this has been a topic yet, but after discussing the Fins game with one of my Bills Fans friends, we agreed that typically this would be a game the past Bills would lose. This is the game we are expected to win easily and we totally come out flat and lay the goose egg. This year I believe is different. I think we take care of our business and drop the hammer on the Fins. Not sure if we cover the 17.5 but I think its easily 10 or 12 point win. M

So I don't think this is a bad Idea at all. Gets rid of two preseason games that don't matter and adds another layer of complexity to the game. As for season ticket holders, most likely the games the starters do not play will be road games. Lets say your the 2-5 Bills are on the road at the Patriots. A game they are most likely to loose. You sit your starters. It gives them a break and lets your backups get some real game experience. So if i'm the coach of an .500 team, I'm sitting my guy on the two hardest road games. So now the pats have to decide weather or not to sit theirs guys, chancing the win, and upsetting the the home crowd with backups. I doubt they would do that. The pats are a team that on track to make the playoffs. If they sit them early in the season and they have a 1st round bye locked up week 13, well too bad, your ***** out of luck, they have to play. It will definitely suck for Fantasy guys and pick-em pools. I'm guessing if the rule does go into effect it wouldn't be a game time decision. It would probably have to have roster set by the beginning of the week. THoughts?

I'm pretty sure Peterman isn't on the top 1000 QBs list.

I was thinking the same thing...The other thing that is ridiculous is Kyler Murray is on the list and hasn't played a down in the NFL.

Its an Opinion, it's neither good or bad. That's why it's called an opinion

Thanks - I was worried that you didn't understand what I said.
