SoCal Deek

I watched some of the game replay last night. He was demonstrably upset when he got up out of the pile. This isn’t just something he made up later.

Salty? No…. I was just reacting to the OPs comment that everyone on the team just ‘does their job’. I’m not sure whether it’s personnel, scheme, or both but I do know there are significant shortcomings with the D right now.

Ah yes, the “old decimated by injuries” line. It’s the new mantra of every Buffalo Bills season.

You do realize they’re getting paid…..right? 😉

The Bills have given up 40 points in each of the last two games. In what world does that qualify as everyone ‘doing their job’?

Just a few tidbits: 1. The new stadium isn’t being built for Josh any more than the current was built for Joe Ferguson. The majority of Josh’s career will almost surely be played in the current stadium. 2. The Bills drafted Josh because his arm strength suggested an ability to play outdoors. Not because he needed to play indoors to be at his best. 3. The Bills have NEVER been known for late season collapses, either before or during Josh’s tenure. If anything they’ve been better known for late season winning streaks. Do I think they should’ve built a dome? Absolutely! But I also know why they didn’t and yes, a lot of it has to do with the financial challenges of being a small, blue market franchise. Ugh! The roof was added long after 1987 and even with that it still isn’t a DOME!!

Huh? I don’t want anything. I’m just stating facts.

I guess ‘new’ is relative. Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, even Miami all have stadiums that are way newer than the Buffalo and none are domes. The Bills will be playing the majority of their games outside (both home and away) for the next two decades at a minimum.

It’s interesting to note that in the AFC there are only 4 out of 16 domed/covered stadiums and none of them are in the northeast. (Las Vegas, LA, Houston, Indianapolis)

Getting better? Looked to me like it was only a flesh wound.

No hash? 😂

Wick? 😂

Sunday currently shows a high of 18 degrees in WNY but no snow.

Washed

I almost hate to say it but thank goodness for Bass and two clutch field goals.

Cam Lewis is terrible

Have you watched the Sabres?

Babbich has to go!

The ‘impact’ player has to be Sam Martin….the only chance we have is if he’s rarely called upon.

Thanks for sharing the chart. I’ve never seen that one before. Some interesting observations: The Bills and the Vikings are the only teams that have won every quarter. The Bills have more positive quarters than the entirety of the AFCE. There's no way anyone would predict the Chiefs to be 12-1 looking at their quarterly point performance and with as many close finishes as they’ve had it’s hard to imagine they’re only +16 in the fourth quarter. Mind boggling.

This is going all over the place. A WR quick screen has virtually nothing to do with the DL. My point all along has been that the ENTIRE defense played terribly. And I don’t think it had much to do with the Rams at all. The Bills just played a really bad game. It happens…apparently.

Okay? Most of my comments are laced with sarcasm including the previous one but there’s nothing freakish about a WR quick screen. Pretty much everyone runs it. The Bills defense was beyond awful on Sunday. I honestly don’t know why. But I doubt it had much to do with unfamiliarity with a WR quick screen.

So the Bills Defense has never seen a QB stand up and throw the ball laterally to a WR in a trips right formation? Interesting. Is the AFCE still exclusively running the wishbone? 😉

I saw very little of last nights game but in the small sample I did I couldn’t help but laugh at SF’s defense uttterly stuffing the exact same WR Puca screen that the Bills defense had allowed him to run to the end zone completely untouched. Geeez we were a mess!

I have to admit I never saw this season coming out of Darnold. Pretty incredible!
