Straight Hucklebuck

Dodson I would have to go back and watch the game, I didn’t see him get hurt live.

Any idea what Gabe Davis is? He was running straight and then just pulled up.

Yeah that ball was just behind him or he scores there.

I hate that he continues to give the media more opportunity to go with their non-analysis he turns the ball over too much, but what can you say, 2 more interceptions and another fumble, all in scoring positions. But then he runs for 15-yards on 3rd-13 with the game on the line.

Dodson was a shoulder Gabe with the knee

First Int should have been at least a FG, Brady stopped running the ball. Cook’s drop Allen’s over throw of Diggs (stop me if you’ve heard me say that) Allen’s second Interception was a turndown, at least that’s what was said on the telecast. The Ty Johnson at the goal line was behind him or he scores there. Then again in scoring range and Allen fumbles the ball. That’s 23 points at least left on the field. Bills will have to work on all out pressure looks this week.

The replays were awful tonight. The camera just showed him on the ground holding his knee.

Going to actually have conduct a real search OUTSIDE of the organization.

Yup, agree. Mines been on Mute for awhile now

Why in the world is Von active when he’s limping? Over Kingsley Jonathan who plays is tail off?

I want the Steelers at home, and then Patty Cakes in Buffalo.

I’ll believe it once Shefter or Jay Glazer report it.

Miller never came back from the ACL and now you look at it, why did they play him so early? Could have just left him on PUP and brought him back for the stretch run. We don’t trade for Douglas if Tre never gets hurt. And Douglas is playing better than Tre has in 2-years. That’s a plus. There is no replacing Milano. With DaQuan back that’s 10/11 starters from the opener counting Douglas in for Tre. We have 0 offensive injuries. The Bills are 95% healthy in Week 18.

And on a side note, someday I hope to see the Bills in their red helmets again. Whenever they want to backdate our jersey to 1995 is fine with me.

I think of Chris Simms who’s been saying for 2 years there is nothing scary about the Bills offense. Greg Cosell has called Diggs a “high level possession receiver” and all the rest have been broken down here. Cook looked like he could be the #2 weapon on this offense after Dallas, but that has since disappeared again. So Chris Simms is now saying the Bills should adopt the Chiefs reality and muddy the game up by running , and playing field position and defense. We can help ourselves by taking Knox off the field more, phasing out Murray completely, and not putting Sherfield on the field - for one game, but guys are going to need breathers.

It’s what’s maddening about the Bills. Kincaid 4-87 last week, and this week he could have 1-target. Cook 5-83 one week, and 1 for -4 the next two weeks combined. It’s an erratic pass game, with a black hole at #2 and Knox who just makes Kincaid less effective. Diggs got on his horse last week and tried to catch that deep ball from Allen. I don’t see any limp, knee bracing, or anything else that’s wrong with him.

I think the exact opposite. Diggs (and Shakir) should be peppered with targets. Gabe is inefficient, I wish Harty would get 1-2 targets/game but he’s mothballed by this coaching staff, Sherfield is absolutely useless. That’s your WR group. One Alpha, one dependable slot, a one-route WR who depends on broken coverages and two useless WRs who don’t get targeted. Passing offense is best in 011 because it gets Diggs, Gabe, Shakir, Kincaid and Cook on the field. The league leaders are 11.5 targets/game. YTD Diggs is currently 9.5, he’s 8.5 under Brady, and 6.6 in the last 3 games. I think Allen should look for him more.

Hendrickson and Reader were FAs. As was Bell. Yeah, they’re not know as big FA players.

That’s why I didn’t mention that. Beane wouldn’t have traded for Douglas if White was healthy. And Douglas is playing better than Tre has at any point in the past two years.

Historically the Bengals don’t spend money in FA. Last year they sat on the wayside and watched: Perine, Hurst, Bates, Bell, Tre Flowers, Eli Apple walk off the team. Pratt came back on a team-friendly deal, and they locked up Logan Wilson in the middle of this season. It wasn’t until late in FA they brought Nick Scott in. So they’re looking at Reader, Williams, Boyd, Higgins, Awuzie. Last year they compensated for the FA losses in the secondary with the draft, they’re set in the secondary for 2024. I anticipate DT for them, and they’ll add to the offense. Even when they drafted Chase at #5, the other option being discussed here was Sewell because Burrow’s knee was wrecked the season before.

The Bills team is 95% intact for this game. Week 18 and we’re down Milano.

Higgins is a second round pick, there is no 5th year option. Bengals fans down here are not anticipating Mike Brown ponying up the market contract money, they think is will be Isovias taking that spot. And to your point, they bypassed a chance to get a good Tight End in the draft and trade deadline.

Average Allen game under Brady (6 games now): 18.2 completions 31.8 attempts 224.5 yards 57.1 completion % 7.3 yards/attempt 1.30 TDs per game 0.8 Interceptions/game Rating = 84.4 QBR = 57.25 From a running standpoint: 8.0 rushing attempts/game 35.2 yards/game 4.2 yards/attempt 1.3 TDs/game

Yeah, it’s a trait all our WRs don’t have. Our WRs adjust pretty well to low throws as Allen throws a lot of balls that die out, especially on in-breaking routes. Two or three times a games our WRs are having to dive/slide on the ground. The problem comes on deep routes. There is a whole category of routes that our WRs can’t do. None of them come back to the ball, fight through contact, high point the ball, or win a contested catch in the air. With Gabe Davis, Allen literally has to throw perfect balls that land in his arms because he can’t do anything else but run straight.
