Allen is in his Manning/ Brady era. He is checking in and out of everything. Allen is in full control. Hard to argue with how he handled the game. 2 of the Dolphins 3 scoring drives were results of special team errors. Opening kickoff to Bills territory and the missed fg. Miami showed little capacity to march the length of the field to score consistently. No reason for Allen to force the ball down field and or abandon the run game that was working. This is not Mcdermott or Brady. This is Josh playing under control. Short week little prep. What are the handful of run game and passing concepts they have excelled at to this point? Run those execute and win the game. They did. Scored 31 with a missed fg.

Allen is playing with surgical precision its scary. Also, the oline is humming with Cook on the ground. Buffalo scored over 100 points in 3 games. When you are getting 10 yard a clip you continue running it until the defense proves they can stop it. 2 weeks in a row that was the case. First week Allen had to throw and went wild. They are tough to match up against. Having an offense that can spread you out and go laser show or go heavy set and punch you in the face makes them very unique in that area. I get Allen throwing for 400 is fun but having Cook rushing for 100 plus over 5 yards a carry is just as good to me.

Bet $2 won $26. Just for fun not retiring off it lol

Hawes anytime touchdown +1200

Creating the oline and run game is for games like today. Secondary is rough for Miami. Do they protect their corners and play off? Do they sell out to stop the run? I dont believe Miami can stop the pass or run game without selling out 1 for the other. First quarter will determine the score. Miami will need to have success early or they will fold up shop pretty quick. Early defensive td by Buffalo turns this into the farewell of Mcdaniel. Buffalo 48-13. NVP Mitch hits a deep shot to Shavers in the fourth.

That would create a much better environment for football than what they used the previous times. Buffalo switching to natural grass next season, the world cup is mandating grass fields too. Close market, with a proper field I dont hate it. More grass games instead of turf.

Really impressed with Hawes. These role player (niche) roster spot players fail more often than not. Why scheme and role flexibility is spoken so much during the draft process. More you can do more likely of making the team. Coming in and being a dominate run blocker is impressive. Having the technique and nastiness to take it to pro edge defenders is rare for a rookie. He seems like a homerun. Has a little more to him in the passing than one would expect really opens up PA. Great day 3 pick. Him and Walker look like steals.

That 44 yard run was the best of his career. When they go spread he is a nightmare vs man. That big play vs Baltimore was just as impressive.

Knock on all the wood. He is playing great. First time in his career not playing 80% of the snaps has to help. I think he gets a few more sacks Thursday. Back up RT and Tua is not Fields or Jackson in the pocket.

Hold on. Burrow used all his power to get Chase on the team and for them to pay Higgins and Chase top of market. Imo they should have drafted Sewell over Chase. Chase is a great player and I understand why they drafted and extended him. Paying Higgins was the mistake. Put that money into the Oline. Burrow is a pocket passer got to protect him. Not for nothing too Allen has sprained his ankle, tore the ligament in his throwing elbow, broke his hand and now broke his nose. Has not missed 1 game. Post game CBS asked him about his nose and xray. He said no he declines them “them” being xrays. Allen has had many things most dont play with.

Buffalo is trying to protect that market. With Allen imo the games would come off closer to home games much more than any other international option. Going to Toronto with Vince Carter and Tracy Mcgrady vs England or Spain is a no brainer. International games are here to stay.

***** turf at Metlife no reason to risk a worst lower body injury.

Great Value Ravens. Leaser defense. Lesser Qb, Lesser Rb. Buffalo spent weeks on the Ravens and all the corrections made after Sunday night all apply to the Jets. Man to man vs Allen equals death. Thats what Glenn plays. Win first down on defense and the Jets will wither away. I think this game can get very one sided in multiple ways in the Bills favor.

The breif time Ryan was the Head Coach and Fitz was the Jets Qb. Thats the only time in history.

Now if I'm Buffalo and third down with 15 seconds I run 4 verticals and have Allen throw it to the 200 section to kill 7 secs.

They were able to run and control the game the last time they played Baltimore. Im fine with treating 17 like Clark Kent until he needs to be Superman. Games where the running game is clicking and PA is set up, play that game. When needed go spread and attack. Creating the ground attacks makes the Bills harder to defend.

100%. I thought holding the time out and seeing what they do is the play. Adds more variants. Also, worst case call it at 20 to 15 secs and it’s tight for a play and fire drill fg. At 15 sec Mcdermott kicks a fg on 3rd down.

I look at it as Rousseau, Bosa, Oliver, Cook, Benford are the current OGs on the roster. They will get rest days they will get light practice days. Im not going to read too much into Thursday's practice report. Friday has usually been the indicator the last few years. I wouldnt be against guys with lower body things not playing in the metlife and being extra cautious. Bad turf.

31-13. After eating it all week the defense comes out fast. Benard and Milano play much better holding the Jets under 100 yards rushing. Jets play man and Shakir is this week’s star but Coleman makes the highlight when he pulls down the fade over Sauce late.

Why cant the “better” guys make a play? Oliver was the best defender on the field for either team in that game. Because he made the plays.

The prolific to me adds touchdowns into the equation. Jackson is a better runner. The amount of touchdowns Allen scores rushing makes him the more prolific runner.

Push come to shove what team made the stops? What team converted plays. The Bills. Multiple sacks. Both Rousseau and Bosa nearly got a third and the final Henry run doesn't happen. The play of the game the forced fumble by Oliver. 3 yards in the backfield btw. Where was that with Baltimore. The Bills offense going conservative was the only thing that slowed the Bills early.

The defense with 4 All Pros gave up 41 points. Bills oline and Wr corp is better. D line is a push leaning Buffalo. Saftey play Baltimore and Corner room is a push. They are closer than you think. Media and PFF say one thing but the results on the field say another. In the last 2 games what play did Baltimores defense make? They gave up more points, made less plays but are better because they have a cool black bird on their helmet?

Spoiler they are not. Buffalo gave up 230 on the ground. Baltimore gave up 390 through the air. Baltimores uniform makes you think they are a good defense. Because they have been built on defense for decades. Similar to Pittsburgh. I have never seen so many media members talk about how bad the Bills defense was. How they could not make a stop yet the Raven gave up more points and yards…

Bosa, Ed and Rousseau played very well. Felt like if they didnt make the play no one did.
