All pro, maybe. Pro Bowl ? You need to be on a winning team and have a bunch of INTs for that.

Yep. Certain teams ( such as NE) are missed or ignored far more than others.

Looked to me as if he had one hand inside of Brady’s leg and the other on his waist. Probably would have gotten called for “ body slamming” Brady on that one. Definitely would have lifted his leg off the ground.

They were both choirboys as teens for the same priest, who has now been transferred to a parish in rural Pennsyltuckey.

Coming soon to a team near you. Middle of October; seems about right to begin the annual ritual of a HC offering up a coordinator for sacrifice.

Hair is part of the player, not part of the equipment. Makes sense to me.

Might work after 3-4 weeks but the season will be over by then. He’ll go to JAX and reunite with Coughlin.

The undoing of this FO will be their decision to rebuild both sides of the ball. The losses will pile up and they will simply run out of time to do it. The defense needed the overhaul, especially after Wrecks Ryan. That was accomplished , and relatively cheaply. The offense should have been tweaked with a few modifications, not dismantled. They cannot compete on that side of the ball as currently constructed. Next year, the offense will have many new parts and may hit a stride in a couple years. That’s just too long in the modern NFL and it will be a new GM and HC in a few years to start yet another overhaul.

McCoy should be traded after the NE game ( likely to be another prime time debacle). This staff has no clue how to run an offense. Gain a pick or two and let McCoy play for a competitive team in PHL for his last couple seasons.

Only 1 pick in every nine passes! Yay, here to stay man!

Absolutely worried. Allen has looked like a competent QB in exactly one game. The defense won the Titans game ( almost did the same yesterday) and Allen’s best plays in both games were as a runner .Peterman shouldn’t have seen the field again after the opener. Not having a viable backup in place 5 weeks later was inexcusable and simply a matter of not wanting egg on their faces making a change immediately after week 1.

Well, some things are deserved.

This team was not talentless when the McDermott/ Beane administration took over. Their player moves made it so. While the QB may be “ their guy”, he doesn’t look very good thus far. It’s less than encouraging that they also thought Nathan Peterman was a viable QB prospect. It cannot be overstated that the offense taking the field is on an historically bad pace. Whether rebuilding or not, historically bad can never be an acceptable result.

These numbers would actually look OK ...through week 3

Funny thing is, as I see the media gushing over the game ( these tweets plus NFLN and ESPN) I didn’t think it was all that great and definitely not a “ classic” by any measure. The great Bill Belichick had no idea how to stop the Chiefs, and even their first half redzone failures were mostly bad throws by Mahomes. He tried his old tricks from the early 2000s such as having defenders stand up at the LOS. Big deal, the Pats D was mostly terrible. The Chiefs are playing with a taxi squad defense that wasn’t much better before half the secondary was injured. To a casual fan this may have been a good game, but it was a display of defensive ineptitude that left one longing for the truly great contests of the 1980s and early ‘90s. Games between elite teams that played tough defense, but featured offenses so good they could still manage to score 30 to win. Last nights bumbling Ds were more akin to outclassed mid level college programs facing the NCAA elite.

He’s a fighter.....for Jesus! But an absolutely terrible QB

Money won’t fix most of what ails the Bills.

I think it’s more incompetence and lack of ability to evaluate offensive players.

Lol.... seems this is what the NFL wants now and sets everything up for it, yet the Bills can’t get a first down. Anyway, I do miss tough, solid defense being played in the league. 43-40 is more about the lack of defensive ability ( and the rules) than it is about truly great offense.

Hill was great, but he doesn’t play defense does he ? Odd headline by sportsnet. Anyway, I’d argue that neither team was very good at “stopping “ the other tonight. Someone had to have the ball last, and unfortunately it was the Patriots.

He has those things, but if you’re arguing that Mahomes doesn’t have great talent you’d be wrong. You could put Nathan Peterman into that offense and he’d still be terrible.

True. But then Belichick is no skinflint, has more chins than a Chinese phonebook yet he’s still going.

You can speculate that but you don’t know. We do know Mahomes settled for FGs in the first half. That = a loss. Their D is bad, but NEs isn’t great at all.

He didn’t score enough. The other guy did. I hate TB with a passion, but that’s how it is.
