Of course it is ! After the Ravens victory over the Pats* , I couldn’t find that game replayed all week.

The dark overlord Belichick has played starters ,including Brady in the first half of meaningless week 17 games.

?????

Will Fuller’s absence / presence will have a bigger impact on the game than Watt imo.

Not a surprise, but who cares ? The early haters dig their heels in. They will continue to shade Allen until he hoists the Lombardi.

I doubt key starters will play into the third quarter or anything. As has been stated, the team doesn’t have enough numbers on the roster to rest everyone. This really isn’t any surprise, nor is it a bad move. Even Belichick does this.

Especially a team that was running a 3-4 defense ( and stocking the cupboard accordingly) since approximately the beginning of time.

The West coast trips might be the most difficult thing about this schedule.

Agreed. You don’t go from 31st in passing to 10th in one offseason. I’m enjoying watching them this season while still wanting the offense to improve. If some fans want to call the Bills boring, Ill take boring if that means wins and playoff games. It beats watching a team with lots of 300 yard passing games , but few wins and your thoughts turning to the draft by Thanksgiving. We’ve certainly been there before , and for far too long.

I believe they try to rotate them from the previous matchup, but it’s not set in stone. Sometimes the rest of the league schedule doesn’t allow for it. We did have SF at home and SEA and Rams away last time fwiw.

Can’t stand that dill hole, or the Seahags for that matter. Never liked SEA much anyway, but after Pete Carroll gifted the Pats* a championship with his boneheaded decision I despise them.

Definitely a big improvement over his first 5 games this season. Encouraging for sure.

O’Brien says Fuller is “ day to day” after today’s update.

I agree. If I had to venture a guess, I’d say McD rotates players in, kind of preseason style and gets them out after a set number of series depending on the player. Maybe a few vets sit this one out on the inactive list.

Bills under McDermott are 3-0 after bye weeks. Not sure if It’s relevant to check any further back .

Errrrrrr, last I checked, the Bills are 10-5 and clinched a playoff spot. The Bears are eliminated.

You’re probably not far off. Wasn’t that what Bum Phillips used to say to describe a great coach ? He can take his’n and beat your’n, then take your’n and beat his’n. Kinda the same thing...I think. Lol

Amazing that 2 castoff FA WRs could have career years with our horribly inaccurate 2nd year QB. Must be all the coverage rolling to our elite TE that’s freeing them up. All kidding aside, the Bills still need a bigger physical WR or another speed demon plus reliability at TE. Football is about matchups, and the Bills have speed plus a slot guy. Need one more piece in the passing game, and that’s not being greedy.

McD will probably rest some key starters, and maybe keep the OL in for awhile. It will have a bit of a preseason feel to it, but guys will be playing to win out there.

I don’t doubt it on the commercial breaks, but wait until you see how many ESPN has to take to pay for that SEC package....

Fades to the corner are such low percentage throws , even if they’re low risk. Probably why Daboll loves them

Cool story bro. Aside from Brady ( who many consider the goat or whatever the @$# ! you want to call it) the other 3 QBs you mention have accounted for two championships in about 35 combined seasons of football or the last 18 Superbowls .

They need balance , and good pass pro. Think of the DAL game. That’s what Allen can do when he gets a pocket . If he has to reset a lot, the mechanics get a little sloppy sometimes. He can thread lasers in there if we give him a little time. He will need a running game though.

I saw him throw the ball behind Sammy Watkins when he was pressured, if that means anything. Guy is a massive dill hole, but he’s entertaining to watch.

The Pats OL does that or worse on just about every play
