  1. I disagree. They are not doing anything special. Running with big bodies vs small ones. Spread out advantageous match ups. Once they get to the defense tendencies they can dictate matchups based off player packages.
  2. Yes. Smaller faster defenses. Notice the best teams in the NFL. 49ers, Chiefs, Bills and Ravens. Have fullbacks, multiple TEs and can hammer you on the ground. Buffalo, KC and Baltimore have probably the 3 best Qbs. If you play any of them consistently with single high safety look you will get obliterated. Teams started going to 2 high vs them and limited the explosives. So it works vs those guys it will really work vs everyone else. KC, Baltimore, and Buff have pivoted away from 3 wrs all the time to more “pro” sets. Many teams are still lining up 3 wide and having very inefficient outputs. Buffalo is going to run the ball. Force defenses to stop it. They do Allen kills blitzes and single high safety. I give Mcdermott immense credit. When cover 3 and single was the norm they threw at an historic rate. Now teams are playing off with 2 deep they morphed into a running offense that can make defenses pay for it. They also have safeties with ability to play in the box and more single high looks.
  3. I can’t be the only one mildly annoyed with Diggs new handshake routine. Wow what a great teammate he has his own handshake with each guy what a great teammate. 🤮🤮
  4. I think Buffalo rolls. Jacksonville is more desperate but overall are disjointed. I like Buffalo Dline and Oline in this matchup. This smells like the game a defensive Co ordinator is going to “take away” the run. Bigger bodies 3 line-bakers and load boxes. Allen has his best game of the season.
  5. Diggs wanted out saw the writing on the wall. I think the season in Houston eventually sours. When he isnt targeted like he wants and they lose he will be loud about it.
  6. I think being bigger at center and guard helps vs the AFC elite. I dont expect Buffalo to dominate those games but also forces teams to make decisions to take it away.
  7. They are different. Less outside runs more inside. I think that has to do with Mcgovern vs Morse. Morse was athletic and gets outside and upfield. Mcgovern is more a dig his nose and stay on block type. I think the interior is more stout. When they pull its Dawkins and Brown. Right now double team get the backer is a tough run to stop with light boxes. Having the bigger bodies at the skill position allows them to run successfully at loaded boxes. Next evolution will be when defenses match with bigger bodies. Those condensed sets will morph into spread looks. They are dictating to defense right now. Setting the counter to the counter. Defenses dont want to be caught with their pants down vs Allen. This gameplan will be on the table all year.
  8. I think it’s the position. Not alot of highly paid Lbs. Buffalo having a type and then drafting one every year is probably the best method.
  9. Mcdermott knows Mcdaniel will not commit to the run. They dont have the blockers at wr for it. Hill and Waddle want those touches. Dont really have the offensive line for it.
  10. Bishop will eventually factor in. Right now the defense is playing very well. Gave up 20 points to Arizona and 10 to Miami. Murray and Tua both had very pedestrian passing numbers. Bishop and Edwards missed most of training camp have only been practicing now a few weeks. Hamlin and Rapp are familiar with the defense and scheme. They were first guys up. So far they have played well. Hamlin put the hat on the coverage and rallied up to make the tackles when the team needed him to. Hamlin had his best game since 2022. Some speculated off his play before his accident he was the successor to Hyde. He was written off last season because he was a shell of himself. Who could blame him? He looked like that guy again last night. Buffalo looks to be in better shape on defense than many expected. Hamlin is a big part of it.
  11. Looked to me Allen threw more to the sideline away from the saftey. Looked to me Coleman had a guy on his back that was close to POI. Would have been a great catch but not that big of a deal. Short fields, pick 6 the second half the game was basically over not alot of substance to be taken from it. Oline and run game dominated thats about it. MVS is going to look like the last 2 games alot. Then he will have 2 50 plus plays and all is forgotten.
  12. Im old enough to remember last year during the preseason many thought Spector was going to start at Mike. He got hurt late in preseason and Bernard came back healthy and got the job week 1 and never looked back. Spector was all over the field vs an offense that stresses the second level as any in the NFL. Im not that concerned. Spector and Williams will be fine. Morrow is the immediate back up and Andreesen or Ulofosio have the athletic ability to play a similar style. Buffalo last few years have drafted 4 linebakers and found another UDFA. Morrow athletically is similar to them. I think they are deeper than many think.
  13. Great game by Hamlin. Led the team in tackles should give him a-lot of confidence. Great to see.
  14. Last year they were the best they have been. Dominated the Steelers and performed well vs the Chiefs.
  15. He wont be more mobile. Hall and Wilson are dangerous guys but thats all they have. The weakness of the 49ers is the oline not named Trent Williams. They dominated the Jets. Buffalo can do the same. Having the ability to take the defenses lunch money is going to create wide open space for Allen to attack down field.
  16. Buffalo has changed over the last few years. They were a wr ran offense and a safety run defense. Right now the strength of the offense and defense are the lines. Buffalo whipped the Dolphins upfront. The oline has dominated for 2 games now. I think they can do the same to most teams.
  17. He has looked great. Him and Rousseau look like a formidable pair.
  18. He is playing very good. Does more than your average back. Has Home-run speed and very dangerous out of the backfield.
  19. I dont believe that. Buffalo knows exactly what Miami is doing. The big change is using Achane more in motion and using him to open up holes for Waddle and Hill over top. Same concepts similar players. Stop the run on early downs with 6 and 7 boxs. Limited the big play and win the game. Force Miami and Mcdaniel to go the long way down the field.
  20. Its Florida. 40% chance of rain from June to October.
  21. +5500 Benard Int add to your parlays 😂😂😂. I think he picks off Tua. Those slant/skinny posts one goes the other way.
  22. If the Bills O-line is as good as I think they are, they put Miami in a bind defensively. I think they are too much upfront for Miami. Like last year with Wilkins Buffalo pretty much ran right at them. I think Buffalo goes play action early to open of the offense. They get a lead and bludgeon.
  23. Miles Garret is the only guy I can see making that strip sack. He got Buffalo back in the game and dominated the second half. He wont get 3 sacks a game but this level of play is a a bonafide difference maker.
  24. Expect Achane to play, Wilson and Wright. Mcdermott has a pretty good feel for McDaniel. This game comes down the offensive and defensive lines. I like Buffalos matchup on both sides. Bills dline can take over it limits what Miami can do in the run game and down field.
