Sit the starters and still win. Jets will be running for the bus.

Because your opinion is silly.

So you realize this is a forum for discussion, but are unwilling to discuss? You just want to throw your rants out there and not be challenged at all? Mods?

So when Darnold throws dumb picks it’s on Gase but when Allen cuts his int’s way down it’s because of Daboll? You’re being silly at this point.

I think they scripted 15 with the Niners?

Having an All Pro at Zo’s spot would improve things? What a novel idea.

He needs to fix that, and experience should do so. Also I wonder if they should script the first 15 plays. It worked for Walsh and Montana. Part of it is that we are among the leaders in dropped passes.

In your opinion. And we’re sick of it. There are some like me who like watching good defense, or a good running play. And I watched every game OJ played and if you didn’t think he was an exciting football player you’re nuts. We are sick of you hijacking thread after thread after thread to continue to spout off about what is or is not exciting football. We are tired of you going off all the time about the necessity of a 300 yard passing game when you have been shown dozens of times it does not correlate with wins. And we are especially sick of you pledging your fandom for the team when you have made it abundantly clear you care more about being what you call entertained than having a winning Bills team. You don’t like the way they play that’s too damn bad. Then don’t watch. Or find an more exciting team that entertains you. Or go to the movies. Just quit trying to make this your personal chat room to promote your agenda time and again. Mods, am I wrong?

I was at the opener in 1960 but the AAFL was before my time.

Short term: two of the last three years in the playoffs Long term: young players drafted at key positions such as QB, MLB, CB, RB. Tons of draft picks and well managed cap space next year, a HC and GM in synch about how to take a long term view. And let's be honest, because you've said it yourself on this board: you are not the slightest bit interested in short and long term success. What you care about is being entertained, and entertainment for you is just throwing the football around even if it results in a loss.

The Bills have 90 million in cap space, are going to the playoffs, have a dynamic young QB, and a coach that is well respected by the players. Last offseason they knew they needed to give Allen help, and what did they do? Befed up the lines in free agency, and added Brown and Beasley in free agency, both of whom are playing well. And you think they can't target and acquire the FAs they want? They just did last year. Your obsession with this 300 yard nonsense is pathologic, and as I have said before you really need help.

What a miserable excuse for a supposed fan.

Yep. All that. Plus Josh could have certainly played better in the first half. it is perfectly OK to think that the kid will be our QB for the next decade or so as I do, plus be able to objectively say he could have played better Saturday. Not just that he missed a couple passes (and not the ones to Know; those were difficult throws), but that Belichick did to him what he does to young QBs; confused him. Josh needs to continue to improve on reads, especially pre-snap, so he can get the ball out quicker. He's done that better in many games this year, but those teams don't have Belichick calling defenses.

Guess you forgot the AFL?

Other than Schoebel being insulted to be compared to Denney, I'd agree with the positions. I think the WR, RT and DE can be pursued both in Fa and the draft. Rt more though the draft, as O linemen are at a premium in the NFL so teams tend to hold on to guys that are the caliber we'd look for. A big RB you can find in lower rounds in the draft. I would want an exhaustive opinion from the medical staff before going there. The guy is older and prone to injury.

Every year people say the schedule will be tough. Every year certain supposed good teams fail and vice versa. To put it another way, how many fans of other teams looked at the Bills as an easy win this year?

Josh could have played better the first half. I will say for maybe the millionth time now: no one, not a single person, on this board sees Josh Allen as a QB that has no room to improve. No one. None. At all.

I would love to see McD’s reaction if someone said this to him.

There you go. Since the first ever played football game you win up front.

The Devils and their neutral zone trap stuff comes to mind. In football Ground Chuck, Lombardi. We do need to open things up more though, and that’s hard to say for a conservative, love running the ball and defense guy like me. McD said play fearless. Live up to that in the playoffs.

Absolutely

Regarding the D, maybe we were trying to not show all our cards, but how do you not defend Edelman better? Why was he not doubled? Why not get right up on him at the LOS and knock him off his route?

Resign Lawson. He’s the modern Phil Hansen. Let Murphy and Hughes go. Sign a better pass rushing guy in free agency and use the rookie Johnson as a pass rusher.

I’m confident he’s the starter for the next 13 years.

and gave up 11 in the fourth quarter to lose.
