LABILLBACKER

Josh may not win it but there's absolutely no other qb in the NFL I'd want in Buffalo. And the scary thing is we're winning games while playing poorly. Eventually this team will collectively shift into a level where no one can stop us.

Big game my butt

....and hopefully no more drops?

I don't care about the other guy. I'll let McDermott dial up a good defensive strategy. I do care about somehow reducing these incessant turnovers. 3 more last night with no wind. It's well documented Josh doesn't do that well in poor weather conditions. I'm just saying tone down the deep throws some if the wind is above 20. A 50% completion ratio doesn't get me excited regardless of his cannon. Fix Cook's recent struggles.

15/30 and 50% is hardly ok.

I hope the reindeer is dumb enough to attempt a bunch of deep throws. It will favor our safeties. Josh completed 15/30 during that NE wind storm. There was no advantage. Hopefully the wind is under 20mph and we can take a couple shots. But the prudent strategy is run, throw short and no turnovers.

You do realize the wind doesn't care how strong your arm is. It's going to blow the ball off course to some degree. Especially with how the wind swirls at Highmark. For this particular game if it is 20-25, you gotta run and be willing to checkdown to pass plays under 10 yards.

Yeah that arm really cut threw that wind in that NE game 🙄

It's clearly going to be very windy which will neutralize Josh's arm. These last 3 games Cook has averaged 3.5, 3.0 and last night 2.8. He's hasn't run with confidence or conviction since Dallas. This game will be low scoring even without Watt. And Tomlin will try to muddy things up beyond the wind. Josh must embrace the checkdown and the running game must return.

Prepare for wind

Completely agree. Him trying to leap up in the air lost him his legs and leverage. I like how he shifts over to a B gap but stop jumping and get a giant olineman in there behind you.

The NFL is definitely not rigged or fixed but the shield does steer games in certain directions.

Whatever you want to call it, why don't we put Spencer behind Josh instead of a running back.

The Chiefs are a mess right now and there's nothing scary about them. Miami will be getting Waddle & Mostert back next week. I'd still prefer to face KC finally at home.

So true and that's exactly why there's no hotels near the stadium.

Basically Shakir is our #2 now and Kincaid #3. I'd advance Sherfield to #4. Knox #5 outlet. That's my pecking order for the playoffs. Sorry Gabe but I'm drastically reducing your snaps unless someone gets hurt.

That int reminded me alot of Poyer or Micah from years past.

Keep those nuggies coming

4.43 but he sure looked faster going down the sideline.

That easily would've been a td.

We draft 2 this April and 2 more April 2025. By that time we should have an idea who's good enough to become Josh's WR1. Shakir and Kincaid can easily take the role of WR2a/ WR2b. Then we look at Shorter or the remaining 3 wr picks to round things out. One of those 4 picks will stand out.

We will definitely be drafting 2 WRS. Probably one in the 1st and one later. We can definitely get one more good year from Stef. Gabe is gone so at the very least Shakir should be promoted as our WR3. And eventually he could slide into that WR2 slot. He's improved so much.

I agree he's an outstanding blocker but if that's his #1 skill as our so-called #2WR, we're in serious trouble. I just can't watch Gabe run routes anymore. Or adjust to pressure he can see is coming at Josh. I'm rolling with Diggs, Shakir, Kincaid and Sherfield from here on out. I can live with a little less blocking.

Josh and the team excel when Gabe's off the field. Both of Josh's ints involved Gabe again doing wierd stuff. The stumble probably cost us a chance at a td. Shakir flat out rarely drops the ball anymore and he's clutch. Kincaid is improving. Even fricking Sherfield finally made an impact. I could easily live with Gabe being inactive. Wish Shorter was even available. As far as I'm concerned Gabe is done as a Bill. Time to move on. Any team dumb enough to pay Gabe 10M+ deserves everything thing "bad" they get.

I don't think Sean is allowing Bass to kick anything beyond 50 yards. So if you don't make it to the 33 it's Josh or something else.
