Damn, what a game!

I’m not panicking yet, but I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t a little concerned. Especially during the first 1/2 today. Seeing how frustrated Allen was brought back some bad memories. Allen has definitely not looked like the 2020 version so far. I wouldn’t say he looks like 2019 Josh Allen either. He’s been better than that and more mature/experienced with (most of) his decision making. But there has been a pre-2020 feel to some of his play. Its not just him though. It’s the entire offense, outside of a couple players (Diggs and Singletary come to mind). The o line was garbage against Pittsburgh. Receivers aren’t getting open like they were last year. And a lot of Daboll’s play-calling has been suspect, at best. I really haven’t been overly impressed with his play calling so far this season. I don’t think he’s done Allen many favors when he’s struggled. Im still trying to hold off judgement at least until they play a few more games (it’s a lot easier to do when they win, like today!). I’m still holding out hope they figure things out. Maybe they’re just rusty or they need to figure out a new way to attack the defensive game plans they’re seeing.

Try listening to the Bills interviews with headphones. I’ve been using a cheap pair of earbuds and I can now finally hear all the questions. When they ask questions the audio cuts to one channel (usually the left headphone), which may be why it’s so hard to hear without headphones.

Interesting that they were willing to trade Reinhart + pick #14 to trade up in the draft for any player that was in the top 7 on their draft boards.

Different circumstances than what happened with Frazier. McDermott didn’t give play calling duties to one of Frazier’s assistant coaches. He took them over himself as a head coach with extensive experience as a DC. and he did it in game (iirc). I believe he said that he just felt he had a really good feel for what the opposing offense was doing and that’s why he took over. It’s one thing for the head coach with experience on that side of the ball to take over play calling. What Tim Graham is suggesting is much different and much more controversial IMO.

They’re not allowing any religious exemptions. It was already reported. they’re not allowed for schools here, either (as of 2019)

Mahomes looking like Mahomes so far.

Wish it was on here. They’re showing the Denver/NYG game instead.

So stupid that they cut away from the Bengals game in OT to show the start of the New Orleans game that hasn’t even kicked off yet.

Well that has to be one of the more disappointing home openers in recent memory.

I hate when the Bills are favored. I much prefer when they’re considered the underdogs. Maybe it’s just me but I feel like they never seem to handle the expectations well. This should be a humbling game for the Bills.

Motor!!

The offense HAS TO answer back right now if they’re going to have any chance at a comeback today.

Ugh. They're just falling apart.

Those 2 fourth down plays were both terrible. But especially that 2nd one.

Pittsburgh with all the momentum right now. Lets see how Allen and the offense answer. Gotta put together a drive here.

Josh Allen, the offense and offensive play calling have all been soo disappointing today. At least the defense is playing good! and I have faith the offense will get their **** together. Not sure if it’ll happene today or not 😂

Omg wtf was that?! They just want to lose this game. With the way the offense is playing, take the ******* field goals.

More calls like that please. Just take what they’re giving us and move the damn ball.

Not a fan of these run calls on 2nd and long.

Not crazy about that play call. Take the field goal, or if you’re going to go for it at least try a higher percentage throw than that.

Oh for sure. Defenses all around the NFL struggled last year. This year is looking like it’s more back to normal - defenses playing better to start the season and offenses starting out a bit slower.

Knox!! He’s playing well so far.
