If the offense can find itself and our d-line can actually start bringing serious heat the Bills can overcome a long term White injury. I know that's a tall order but next man up.0
I agree with this.
It does suck for McKenzie but he hasn't been noticible this season and, on top of that, his fumble
literally seemed like the straw that broke the camels back last week.
Even more amusing that the "play action" that fools nobody, may be Josh Allen's hard count that also fools nobody.
And, no, I'm not bashing Allen. I am happy he is our QB. I just find his hard counts funny.
I don't disagree with the OP but there are only a handful of teams that rely on pounding the football at you. Do you draft to try to stop those few teams or do you draft to what the league has become for the most part....a soft, passing league?
Three yards and a cloud of dust still does exist though.
My opinion is that the team is fine when Star is in there. Even against the Titans I think we were adequate with the exception of the long TD given up.
Depth behind Star is obviously an issue when they play a power team.
Back then the Bills called it "Big Ben". Somehwhere in the shuffle it became "Hail Mary".
Anyway...11/22/81. Ferguson connects with Roland Hooks to beat the Patriots with 6 seconds left. Jump ball in the endzone is tipped to Hooks by Patriot LBer, Mike Hawkins. The more impressive play was the completion to get the Bills down the field. Hooks laid out horizontally to grab a Fergy pass.
My Dad decided to leave the game with about 2 minutes to go after a Fergy pick. We celebrated in the parking lot with about 75 percent of the people that left the stadium with us.
That win was sorely needed by the Bills. Their season was circling the drain and it led to a winning streak that got them into the playoffs.
Hope the memories brighten your day after yesterday's debacle.
