Happy Birthday N G ! Have a great day. : )

If you look at the numbers Singletary is on pace to fumble more then Yeldon. Yeldon 7 fumbles in 492 rushing attempts. Singletary 4 fumbles in 250 rushing attempts. The 6 ft 1 Yeldon also has 1,448 career recieving yards. ( 60 GP ) The 5 ft 7 inch Singletary 381 recieving yards ( 22 GP ) Yeldon was drafted early in the 2nd round (36th overall) I'm not going to speculate on why it didn't pan out in Jacksonville. I had and still have high expectations for the Alabama product. My intentions are not to run the motor or Moss down. I think watching T J Yeldon get some play time might start a fire under all three of them. Yeldon will play with a big chip on his shoulder given the chance IMO. I also think the taller Yeldon provides an easier and more versatile checkdown for Allen. Better comfort level may translate to more dump offs to the RB in space IMO.

I think this goes hand in hand with having T J Yeldon in the game. Even If its as more of a 3rd down specialst IMO.

Ok This Dolphins talk is getting out of hand.

People are looking for guarantees. At this point there are none. Buffalo just needs to continue making strides to become a better football team. Good competition helps the process in my humble opinion. -
Thanks OP Buffao has a couple of players sitting on the shelf that might be able to help IMO. T J Yeldon because of his pass catching abilities out of the backfield. I think Yeldon is a good fit for the more pass oriented O IMO. Duke Williams for size that could help provide a security blanket for Allen lacking from the TE position. Big enough to help work the middle of the football field and increase redzone production IMO. Like elfs on a shelf, waiting to spread magic...

The Jury is still out... -
Add the fact that the normally more safe security blanket TE throws are practically nonexistent. Its hard to put to much blame on a QB that is lacking proper run support or production from the TE position IMO. I know I sound like a broken record. T J Yeldon and Duke Williams need to be utilized in the Bills Offense IMO.

A light knit polypropylene fabric/mask would work well for the NFL IMO. Face shields might be an option.

Anyone got Pittsburgh on their mind yet?

The Steelers game will be another real good measurement of what to expect come playoffs. Win or lose lessons learned will help Buffalo going forward IMO. I eagerly await the matchup... -

You can generally rely on Fitzpatrick to make a few errant throws, Tua, not so much IMO. Throwing velocity is probably somewhat similar. I feel like with a stout D you have put Tua in the same position as he was in with Alabama. I hesitate to call him a good game manager, but he is, and perhaps a little more. With Fitz as a mentor, Chan Gailey as OC and Tua pulling the trigger. Buffalo needs to be loaded for bear. The bread and butter of the Bills D is the secondary. Regardless of how accurate Tua is a healthy Bills secondary can give Tua problems IMO. -
Anyone else wake up still feeling very optimistic?
Figster replied to JerseyBills's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
This is what I would like to see and its not a knock on motor. The same goes for Duke Williams. The Bills WR position overall is performing at a very high level IMO. The reason I want to see Duke Williams on the field is because Buffalo's TE position is not producing. Use the bigger bodied Duke to soften up and work the middle of the football field. In turn, help the Bills rushing attack. I personally think used properly Duke Williams could become a big weapon in the Bills arsenal IMO. WR/hybrid TE I'm sure J K is watching Josh Allen and the Bills O operate and thinking man what they could do with some production from the TE position. -

I like the way you think OP. The gameplan did work. It worked on a day Josh Allen was not at the top of his game. A day when yes, the Bills could have used more production running the football. Myself personally, like the passing game RB's need a certain amount of touches to get a feel for what the opposition is doing. Singletary and Moss dividing play time making it even harder. The O spends most of its time in pass protection. It boils down to this, If Buffalo wants to run the ball well it will have to get the RB's more involved IMO. Buffalo has a couple of players I really think can help this Offense start hitting on all cylinders IMO. T J Yeldon for his catching abilities coming out of the back field and Duke Williams for size at the WR position. The Duke is a WR that plays like a TE IMO. I think he gives Allen the larger go to security blanket lacking from the Bills TE position IMO. Buffalo vs Arizona very well could have been a preview to the Superbowl. -

I think teams playing catch up tend to help inflate points against IMO. -
Talk about excitement going into the bye. Even in the loss yesterday entertainment at its finest. Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills going down swinging. Got hit with a hail mary punch by the mighty mouse that rocked Bills nation to the core. MERCY!!!!

Getting blocked while in hot pursuit is going to happen. Getting knocked on your rump is going to happen. Players get up off the ground after every play. Edmunds QB's the D. Overall I thought the D played well vs Kyler Murray and the top ranked O in the league.

This wouldnt hurt as much if the Fins werent a game back
Figster replied to Ramza86's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
As Stevie Johnson would say... ...Why so serious... Being a bama fan I now have to hate my all time favorite college QB. He's already starting to smell kinda sinister... Like a spoiled can of Tua fish... ...hate it when that happens... -
Buffalo scored 30 points and lost the game not being able to knock down the football on a hail mary. Some of Buffalo's best talent right where they needed to be on the play. The Bills D came at Murray in waves. He's not an easy player to defend. The Cardinals have the top ranked O in the league. This could be a preview to the next Superbowl matchup. The game plans worked in my humble opinion OP.
-
I nominate Duke Williams Why might you ask? I have to blame someone for the Dukes lack of play time. Awwww come on man...
-
How the PI wasn't called on Brown boggles the mind.
-
I don't like being on the wrong end of a play that will go down as one of the all time greats. On the other hand its hard not to appreciate the significance of the play. What it meant for Arizona and Kyler Murray. The astonished look on some of the Cardinals players was priceless. With a day to let my emotions get back to normal. It was a great play. I think when its talked about the valiant effort from Josh Allen will also be remembered. Two of the NFL's new greats taking it to the wire...
-
I think we will. In the grand scheme of things though as far as playoffs go its not that important this season IMO. Lets not get to discouraged going into the bye leading the division and 4 and 0 within the division. When the bye is over Buffalo will still be in 1st place regardless...
-
It is real good timing. Tua has played well, but I expect some bumps in the road for the rookie. I'm not sure the division means as much with the new playoff format and covid restrictions at the stadiums. Advancing to the 2nd round requires beating teams we will have to beat regardless.
