Bills have reduced the number of such narratives with their solid performances. Those that remain are unlikely to change their tune after the AZ game. WHen we beat them, those voices will spout "Bills caught AZ looking ahead to the Seahawks game"
Perhaps, but losing to Tennessee and KC in consecutive weeks did a number on our perception amongst those people.
That being said, GMFB already shifted the narrative to “Josh has to prove he can do it in the Playoffs”, so you may be correct.

Feels like Seattle and Arizona switched places and we’re facing the league MVP and SB favorite this week by the way the media is talking.
Even on the scroll for “Sit ‘Em” Bills Defense comes in at Number 2. Cole Beasley on that list as well.
I hear analysts say “well, sure, Buffalo stopped RW, but KM is a whole different story”..... ehhh, ok....
Kyler is good, for sure, but somehow Wilson and Seattle became a middle of the pack team this week after losing to us, but Arizona is lethal with the best QB in the NFL after losing to Miami.
Meanwhile, the other narrative is that “Buffalo can’t be trusted yet”.... which I’m ok with... I think beating AZ would finally squash that if we come away with the W.

The defensive gameplan against the Chiefs was designed to play the Chiefs. And while it was hard to watch it was not a bad plan. The problem that night was the offensive gamplan and then the execution or lack thereof by the offensive players.
The reason you can blitz the Seahawks in a way you can't the Chiefs is because the Seahawks do not have great tight ends, they lack a top slot receiver and they don't really use their backs in the passing game. Most of their passes are downfield routes, that take longer to come open and require Wilson to hold the ball and extend plays. The Chiefs offense is completely different. They can burn you deep, no doubt, but they can also burn you with designed quick hitters, screens and dump offs with loads and loads of YAC with Kelce, Edwards-Helaire and Hardman. Basically if you use the plan the Bills D used against Seattle vs Kansas City the chances are the ball is gone before your pressure gets there. That exact same defensive gameplan does not knock Mahomes down 16 times.
We did not lose to Kansas City because of defense. People really need to get over that. It is not what happened. Was the defensive plan hard to watch? Yes. But especially down the players the Bills were down I am not sure there was a better plan open to them. And if they had tackles who played to run a little better it might even have been enough to win. Hell.... had CEH's knee hit the turf one split second later in the 4th Quarter it might have been enough to win anyway.
You seem to be swinging the pendulum the entire other way by trying to shift blame from the defense in the KC game by way of a good gameplan.
Sure, the game plan was fine.... if we get off the field on 3rd down. The defense did not do that. Therefore the defense was a problem in that game.
Holding KC to below 30 because they held the ball for 2/3rds of the game isn’t anything to be proud of. Nor is it conducive to winning a football game.
The offense didn’t do it’s part either, but the defense still warrants blame for their play on the field, even if the game plan was sound in theory.

I think it had absolutely nothing to do with it. They couldn't practice... We could.
Just an off game for us, it happens, it's cool.

The Titans had 2 and a half weeks to prepare. We had one week which consisted of preparing for two teams and not knowing when or if we were gonna play one or both. I think that had a lot to do with both the Titans and Chiefs games
This. We were all out of sorts, but the Titans came out on fire and we had Andre Roberts handing them the ball to start the game.
They continued on into the next week against Houston, lights out first half, before they finally started losing the effects of 2.5 weeks off in the second half.

Nyheim Hines is kinda legit

Colts have to be most boring team in NFL. Jets are like a car wreck you can’t turn away from. A lot of other bad teams have young QB’s that might turn into something. Colts are a mediocre team with an old QB going nowhere.
You’re not interested in an aerial assault consisting of nonstop 3-7 yard passes? -

I imagine that depends upon Cody Ford.
TBH, I'm not sure Morse is an upgrade on Feliciano at Center. I'm pretty sure he's not an upgrade in the run game, and I thought for the most part Feliciano had a good game against the Seasnakes.
He may not be, but having Morse at C and Feliciano at G is an improvement over just Feliciano at C and no Morse.

I think the move is sign him to a market rate deal but with minimal guarantee and then if a guy falls to you who you think can upgrade in the draft you pick him.
If we are going to be a 4 wides team at the frequency we have been this year this FO better be ready to pick a receiver somewhere in the first 4 rounds every single draft. The Pittsburgh model. Never stop stocking the position.
This.
We run 4 wide a ton, but only really have 4 WR’s on the typical active roster.
Roberts is valuable, but I don’t want to see him out there running routes, and McKenzie is more of a gadget player.
The #5 WR should be a speed guy who can eventually take over Brown’s role (imo). I’d go as far as saying we should draft this guy in Round 1 or 2.
-
I heard Eric Wood talk about the pressure packages we brought against Seattle, and how it’s difficult to do that against tempo.
Arizona runs tempo as much as anyone.
Given our defense FINALLY looked like the defense we were expecting this year, it will be interesting to see how they counter Arizona’s offense.
One thing they seem to always do, is run breakneck tempo after a big play.
-
I like him, but think we should draft a speed WR early. If we do, that likely means he takes McKenzie’s role.
It’s quite obvious how important speed opposite Diggs is in this offense with Allen’s arm. If Brown misses any time, as we’ve seen, we don’t really have anyone to play that role.

As good as our weapons are, how do we all think Josh Allen would look throwing to Hill, Kelce and company?... I think he'd look every bit as dynamic as Mahomes.
Josh Allen's potential is best QB in the NFL. I'm not saying he's there yet, but there's only a few guys in the NFL that have the talent/intangibles to be the that guy, and Allen is one of them.

His reaction to Klein’s strip sack was all of us!

I don't know that it can be fixed.
Live content can still work.. For all the grumbling about NBA/MLB/NHL ratings, the NFL is doing fine and Clemson/Notre Dame drew absurdly high ratings.
Everything else, meh. If I want highlights, I can just go to youtube or twitter. If I want sports talk, I can now stream non-local radio stations like WGR. There are other options now in NFL Network and SEC/ACC/B1G Networks.
Also, they are far too political. I'm not one who typically gets turned off by this stuff when it's once in a while, but they are over the top with it.

Definitely wanted to see the Jets win, but that 3rd Patriots W all but guarantees the Pats don’t pull some shenanigans and end up with Lawrence or Fields.

0 sacks and 0 turnovers in this game. Who'd have thought.

This is some epic unintentional tank vs intentional tank action

Just now, Doc said:
Why wouldn’t Perriman?
I guess he could, but he’s only on a one year deal.
Im sure he thought he’d have options though, so I guess he could be back.
Mims, Crowder and Perriman isn’t terrible, but I’d think they’d want better for whoever their future QB is.

Flacco to Perriman x 2
Great job by two guys who, most assuredly, will not be on the Jets roster next year
-
I couldn’t even imagine the level of misery to be watching Joe “zero part of your future” Flacco refusing to be the tank commander and going out to do this.

I am shocked he got up after that one...maybe I am getting soft in my old age, but that seemed like a pretty dirty hit.
If you think that was dirty, you should see the heinous act against humanity that Jerry Hughes got flagged for yesterday.-

It was the right call. Guy had a clean shot and still ended up doing that?
Not at all. That was a 100% clean hit.-

Priorities 1a and 1b this offseason.
If it means we let guys like Milano walk, so be it...
You don’t play games when you have a strong OL (that’s also young)
