    And So you want to take the scrambling away from Allen... That is crazy . and if you take 3 steps back and down the ball like you said, that is called Intentional Grounding. Loss of down. You're not going to take the scramble out of JA.. Its stupid talk.. its who JA is to the core... What you do is take away all those planned QB Runs outside a 3rd or fourth and a half a yard..  Josh is a damn good scrambler and you want to take that away?

     

    CLUELESS


    the only time Allen should be running is on those few designed runs.

     

    spiking the ball at the feet of your Blocking RB is not intentional Grounding at all.  It’s the move all Super Bowl Winnibg QBs who know how to fight another day have been doing for decades.

     

    Scrambling is silly and pointless in unnecessary situations.  Just kill the play.  Save your body.  You’ll have plenty of more opportunities to win the game before the clock strikes 00:00.

    An incomplete pass is a failed passing play.  What's your point?  

     

    I don't expect great results every time.  Josh being able to extend plays is what makes this offense unpredictable and hard to scheme against.

     

    You apparently want to turn Josh into a pure pocket passer, which is never going to happen.

     

    I trust Josh's judgement when he decides to take off.  I want to see him get down or get out of bounds when the only other option is contact.

    The point is that lots of folks get excited when Allen runs…but the majority of his runs are simply due to a complete failure in the passing game.

     

    Just surprising to me so many people cheer what is technically a utter breakdown in passing offense.

     

    extension of plays is simply a failure to execute the play design.

     

    if everyone is executing the play as it is designed … you shouldn’t be extending the play.  It’s not madden after all.

     

    the QBs who win the Lombardi (on vast majority) win FROM THE POCKET.  Executing the offense.

    It's not subjective because the example I gave came right from Beane's mouth.  If he decides to scramble, they want him to slide or get out of bounds instead of constantly challenging defenders head on.

     

     


    Everytime Allen runs and it’s not designed…it is technically a failed passing play.

     

    To have an offense so “off schedule” and yet expect great results is very off base in the grand scheme of things.

    Welp, Beane and McD disagree with you.  Take it up with them.  They know running is part of Josh's DNA and they just want him to do it smartly.


    That is so subjective as to what is “smart” when it comes time to run.

     

    Being too amped, too competitive, fear that the game has to be won in the first 5 minutes.

     

    only leads to bad decisions.

    That's not what Beane and McD are talking about.  They said they're fine with him running, but he needs to not take unnecessary hits like where he lowers his shoulder and delivers a hit when just running out of bounds or sliding is the better option.

     

    Beane was on Green Light with Chris Long and specifically mentioned the Vikings game after he injured his elbow against the Jets.  Docs said he'd likely miss 1-3 weeks.  Josh said he could play that week and the Doc said he'd only clear him if Josh agreed to protect himself.  Beane said 2nd quarter he's running, already had the first down at midfield and instead of sliding, lowers his shoulder against an oncoming Safety.

     

    Those are the unnecessary hits they're talking about.


    deciding to run and scramble and take a hit on 3rd down in the 1st quarter is about as unnecessary as it gets.

     

    the game will not be won nor lost for a punt in the 1st quarter 

     

    and him risking running and picking up a first down does not justify it.

    LOL! ok man..

    The great QBs with multiple Lombardi trophies know the drill.

     

    maybe one day you will too.

     

    until then…enjoy the pointless scrambles and risk of injuries and fumbles and interceptions and early playoff exits.

     The Viking games and Allen’s Elbow is a complete spin job.  They didn’t worry about his arm at all.

     

    They were so worried about his arm?  Yet they dialed up 50 pass attempts?

     

    come on now.  Let’s get real.

  6. 3rd and 6

    1st Quarter

    Score 0-0

     

    Allen drops back and there is immediate pressure.  Don’t run.  Don’t spin.  Don’t hurdle.

     

    Just spike the ball at the feet of your running back who stayed in (and failed) to block.

     

    Punt.

     

    Allen starts doing that…then we can believe he is serious about starting to play this game at the level required for the long haul.

    They've invested heavier on Offense around Lamar than the Bills have around Allen.  

     

    Maybe Lamar needs a Diggs.. he has Andrews, but Stefon Diggs type WR's don't want to play with Lamar, so....


    Ravens I guess are targeting WR who have to want to win first and foremost.

     

    now every NFL receiver will tell the media all they care about is winning and that their own individual production come secondary.

     

    which is a lie.  Why do we know?

     

    Only Patrick Mahomes has a higher Winning Percentage of starting QBs with more than 50 games played (okay and Jimmy G).

     

    Lamar … wins.

     

    But that isn’t good enough for WRs who “just want to win”.  Which they don’t.

    Packers are a petty poorly managed team.

     

    They wouldn't get Rodgers top tier weapons because they figured he was so good they could get by with decent.

     

    But they want to get rid of him.

     

    But they don't want him to go somewhere else and succeed. But they want the Wilson trade that they refused to take last year and the year before. 

     

    So they sign him to an enormous extension that is all guaranteed money. And then decide they want to move on halfway through the season but don't do it.

     

    It's going to be hilarious to watch them go 5-12


    They don’t have an owner.

     

    As meddling as some can be…sometimes you need the Top Dog who cuts your check to walk into your GM office and say what is what and what is going to happen and that it needs to happen now.

    As others have noted, why does it take 6 off-seasons for this to understand?  Was the "process" that ensued in 2017-19 incapable of meshing the "trust" preached by the HC and having guys who are bully-types?

     

    It seems a little too convenient now, and yes it carries risk...which is what happens when your scheme/personnel choices have not succeeded.  

    They bet it all on that First Window (2020-2022).

     

    It failed and they didn’t win.

     

    Since they are all still in their positions, they have to say Something and attempt to re-brand.

  10. Maybe watching for it more this season… but I just happened to notice more make up calls in the NFL this season in more games that I may have ever notice before in the past.

     

    Evers since the Raiders/Chiefs night game when Kansas got robbed on the QB Hit and refs turned around and had to fix their mistakes.

     

    I don’t know how I feel about that honestly because if a ref screws yiu in the first quarter, and it leads to the game goong in one direction, maybe the refs should give you a make up call later in the game to balance things out.

  11. 29 minutes ago, Billz4ever said:

    So is it cheating the other times in the game they don't call it?  

     

    If a referee is nothing else, the one thing they have to be is consistent.  If they aren't, it destroys people's belief in their impartiality.

     

    If you don't call it all night, there's no way you call that one as weak as it was, on a 3rd down,which literally ended the game.


    There have been instances on NFL MIC’D UP / NFL FILMS … where you will hear Refs “warn” players about certain things they are doing.

     

    I have come to believe that usually the first time a ref throws a flag on a player…is not the first time in that game that that player has been toeing the line of potential penalty.

     

    I do believe that refs warn players and use judgement to keep the game moving and try to keep the focus on game altering penalties.

     

    I think refs consistency is that they do give players warnings and chances to not be playing the game in penalty before throwing the flag.

    I thought of Browns too, but they did win some NFL championships pre-SB era as did Bills won a couple.  Once SB era started, browns never won again and Paul Brown was also gone so kind of torn on whether they are good choice or not.

     

    So in light of that will also go with Vikings

    Oh!  I thought it was franchise in the history of football not the NFL.

  13. Be very surprised if Buffalo was either the Away Team for the Thursday Night Opening Game of the Season  (making it Back go Back) or another Thanksgiving Game (which would make it 4 out of 5 Seasons).

     

    My predictions are:

     

    Raiders in London 10:00 a.m.

    Giants on Monday Night

    Chargers on Sunday Night

    Jets on Thursday Night

    Dolphins on Sunday Night

    without the ability to wear a bills hat on a trip in Disney and yell, “go bills!” Or get such utter joy and then multiple reposts for a picture of a guy wear long a bills t-shirt in the 3rd row at the Masters…

    who are we truly as a community?  What else is there?

     

    Not sure Commander fans have such burdens that lock them ball and chain to the demands of a owner and his football team.

  15. ‘The Drought’ did enough damage to the local community psyche that the first Coach who had any sort of success would be very well insulated and protected in his job.

     

    Fans are just happy to be in the conversation and considered a serious team on a season by season basis that the end results really don’t matter to the Head Coach or the Organization.

     

    because the first thing any defender on McDermott would say if he loses is “don’t you remember how bad it used to be.”

     

    so many…are just happy to be competitive. And maybe they are right.  I’m not one to say.

     

    But…if it was Dallas, New England, Miami, LA, Chicago…

     

    if those teams were not to win…after:

     

    Spending all this money

    Pre-Season Favorites

    Vegas Favorites

    MVP favorite

     

    it would be End of Days in those cities and a national shame.

    Am I the only one that's annoyed by all this "The Bills are going to the Super Bowl!!!" talk? I'm way too superstitious, and it's pissing me off. Everyone shut up already! Let's at least play a game or two!


    Your not totally off.

     

    2021 - Neither of the Top 2 Betting Favorites even made the Super Bowl.

     

    2020 - Chiefs were #1 but it was Bucs #4 who won it.

     

    2019 - Neither of the Top 2 Betting Favorites even made the Super Bowl.

     

    So who knows.  In the end it’s really just about ego and humans who feel they need to have control over every situation.

    I think it was more of the cocky/arrogant/cry baby attitude he developed over his career that started to make people dislike him. 

     

    He wasn't just our pain but the entire league and his attitude wore thin pretty quick.  And that was 15ish years ago. 

    Frankly, that is just an example of…if it was one of our guys … we would all love it.

     

    JA17

    Spins ball in front of players (cocky)

    Waves bye-bye in a blow out (cocky)

    runs up score (arrogant)

    complains to refs when he throws off balance and gets pushed to turf (cry baby)

     

    Mafia is ready to build his statue in front of stadium yesterday.  Lol.

     

    Patti, Lamar, Rodgers, Brady…they all do it.

     

    Bradys biggest problem…is that he didn’t lose (very often).  In an era/generation where all the kids get a trophy…his throw back to throttle and pummel you over and over again…doesn’t sit well to some.

    I get that Brady is a HUGE get for Fox Sports, but no matter how good he is, 75% (at least) of NFL fans will continue to hate him and will not want to hear his obnoxious voice or see his smug, cheating face.

    He is number 1 merchandise sales…

     

    Don’t be mad at Brady because you cheered and thought Chan Gailey, Fitz, EJ, Rex…etc. were good ideas and could actually win.

     

    Tom Brady didn’t hold Buffalo back.

    Buffalo held Buffalo back.
