Narratives are for PPP. Anyway, Allen looked a lot more like the 21 other 1st and 2nd year QBs that BB has defeated than Jackson. I wouldn’t use the word afraid more than confused. Some of this is because Harbaugh and the Ravens are letting Jackson do his thing rather than change him or coach things out of him. Jackson played loose and looked like he belonged. Not taking anything away from him, but he’s got good coaching , a scheme tailored around him , a very solid OL, RB and supporting cast. Kudos to them. I’m not sure why why any Bills fan would mock Jackson or the Ravens, as they’ve done the ultimate in the respect department; dismantling the Pats on prime time. Jackson looks good to me in that system ; how he’d do outside of it is another question but the guy is an incredible athlete and it showed on Sunday night.

Trust me, we know.

The Bills reached as high as 12th in the NFLs yardage based offensive rankings earlier this season. It’s great to move the ball , and they were doing a better job of it earlier. Weather obviously impacted 2 of the last 3 home games as far as passing goes. They’re still struggling to move the ball for long stretches , especially in the 2nd half. The goal of offense is to score points , and they’ve been mostly lacking in that all important category all season. They need to find more ways to score, and there are multiple issues at work there.

Oh sure it does, wasn’t arguing against your point, more just adding to it. RW wanted to preserve the traditional rivalries, and there definitely wasn’t a big one with the Colts. Manning had just gotten there a few years before, and outside of Bert Jones the Colts hadn’t had much at QB to heat up any rivalry.

I agree , it’s tough to watch at times. Conversely, you see many defenses that you just know aren’t going to make a stop. Leaves a lot of those style games comIng down to which team has the ball last. It’s frustrating to watch a team that can’t stop anyone too.

It would be nice. He hasn’t been making game changing plays, and it’s halfway through year two. He’s young, but has been a disappointment relative to his draft position imo.

Iirc, Ralph Wilson was adamantly opposed to MIA being moved out of the AFCE.

Agreed. Better coaching too, which has a lot to do with how well Jackson is doing. It’s questionable if he’d be very successful in a more traditional offense/ style of QBing.

Yeah, ‘93 was not a great year for the no huddle iirc. It was being figured out by DCs, and the Bills OL had started to decline. I think Reed was out for awhile too, leaving Brooks to pick up the slack. It was the beginning of the end, really. Seems like so long ago, and it’s incredible that the Bills really haven’t had a good QB in 22 years since JK retired. Brady’s been starting for the better part of 19 seasons. Ugh!

The key being you’re not a GM...... Or maybe you are, idk.

The LB probably wasn’t the only problem, but it led to others like the S being at a poor angle to make a tackle. There’s a reason for the defensive mantra’s preached by coaches all the time ...” do your job”, “ do your 1 11/th “ etc. Things break down when one thing isn’t done properly.

Seems awfully high. Wouldn’t bet on it.

Should be a decent contingent, with a short distance to drive and not terrible weather. Plenty of tix on secondary market. Not TEN type numbers, but solid. Browns fans have to be losing interest.

Nope, just football fundamentals. You don’t need Keuchly and Davis for it to work; you do need guys to execute their 1/11th.

WE DON’T NEED NEW PATS* THREADS ON A BILLS BOARD

Not surprising and it’s the right call. If Minshew was on a 5 game winning streak maybe you think about going with the hot hand.

He hasn’t thrown many INT s in recent weeks, so I’d say probably not. At least one of those INTs was an underthrown deep shot. The INT vs TEN over the middle wasn’t under pressure but who knows what their criteria is for “ under pressure “ and not under pressure. Anyway, the INTs were discussed at length. Most were considered to be bad hero ball throws instead of throwaways.

Easier to do when you have a beast like Bosa. Bills D is lacking in pass rushers. I can see Frazier mostly playing coverages, as that’s more in his wheelhouse anyway. Well worn territory from his “ hero ball” episodes earlier in the season.

Might be better not to pressure him, from the looks of it.

The NFL would like a team in London. That gives it a decent shot at becoming reality.

No doubt , though the question was specifically about the Cowboys. Of course, there are others that fit the profile to varying degrees.

No it’s not. Their goal is to get even money on both sides, not to give their thoughts on the game.

Vegas believes the public thinks Bills are about as good as the Browns.

America’s team, huge market fans all over the country. They always get PT games, even when they’re coming off losing records. Been that way for years.

There’s nothing wrong with waiting to see what plays out, without making declarations ahead of time. Especially when that’s precisely what the Bills , McD , Beane and ultimately the Pegulas are going to do. If they decide Allen hasn’t met expectations and likely won’t , they will move on. It doesn’t matter one bit what a bunch of fans think.
