    Yesterday was a one-off at best.  You cannot win playing football that way consistently.  I think you know that and you are turning a blind eye to it.  Allen looks worse as a passer now than EJ Manuel did at any point as a starter.

    I agree with that 100%

     

    My point is game situation and flow need to be taken into account. and I was referencing the final drive, primarily. the run game is humming. the short passes are working why in gods name would you go away from it and why in the world would you blame the qb?

    Like me, I think most Bills fans relishes, loves old school style of football in which you pound the rock and play great defense.

     

    That style of play has worked all throughout the history of the NFL from Lombardi's Packers, to Shula's Dolphins, to Joe Gibbs hogs, to Marv's Bills, to the current Ravens with Joe Flacco. Pounding the rock worked then and it still works in today's game. 

     

    And yes, even the K-gun with the no huddle was a run first scheme that relied upon Thurman Thomas being 70% of the offense. The Bills used to run Thurman with his cutbacks and teams were so determined to stop him that Kelly would throw to Reed over the linebackers moving up to stop Thurman. 

     

    The Ravens have proven you can pound the rock and still properly develop a QB to compete with the rest of the league. Plus, they have won a super bowl with that QB.

    I don't entirely disagree with this. but the ravens havent made the playoffs once since 2012 and this year they aren't winning because of the running game. they are 25th in rush yds per game. the bills need to get the pass game worked out to consistently win games. hands down.

     

    EDIT: I think your actual point flew over my head the first time I read. I do agree we can still develop a guy while primarily running and playing defense.

    Yep, you're right.  They were an offensive machine yesterday.  It was "working".

    ya.... that's what I said... please don't put words in my mouth.

     

    and I was referring to the last drive. did it do the job? was it effective? why drop your young passer back to throw when you are rolling down the field on the ground and short passes. seriously man. use you're freaking brain and don't be so extreme about your views. 

     

    I say the last drive worked and you go off on a dumbass tangent on how I said the offense was a machine yesterday.

    Again, only Bills fans can look at an OC completely taking a game out of the hands of the QB as a plus.

    why would any OC of any qb make him drop back and risk to's when they can move the chains with safe runs and passes? most teams don't stray away from the safe stuff if its working. that would be foolish. it was a consistent methodical drive.

     

    smarten up man.

  5. that play shady made on 3rd down on that game winning drive. my god..... he knew we was gonna stick his foot in the ground and reverse field before the ball even got half way to him I think, and the rest of that play was shear WILL. "I will not be denied!".... I realize his time is winding down and I find myself making sure I really soak in those sort of plays now.

    If you judge by that standard, then you clearly "knew" Peyton Manning was bad by the end of his first year. "Bad. End of story," in your words, and yet, it really wasn't the end of the story for Peyton, anymore than what we've seen so far is the end of the Bills story.

     

    I'm not spinning anything. 

     

    Three games simply isn't enough to know. It just isn't.

     

    Particularly not when you're judging a GM who's been on board for one draft and a half a year more, and a GM who promised his owner to clear up the horrible cap situation he'd been left by the previous GM by the end of this year.

    right because judging a couple of vets at the top of our wr lineup that are dropping balls is the same as judging a rookie at the hardest position on the field.... good comparison, bruh.

     

    stop it. the wr group was bad last year. it was bad coming into this year. it'll be sorry at the end of the year too. 

     

    and i'm not judging beane soley off of this. I like beane and McDermott quite a bit...…… but the wr's blow. i'm confident they know that(even though you don't) and i'm confident they will go about fixing it for the young qb in the future.

    I'm expecting a win now, so watch out everybody. That usually means the Bills will lose!

    One thing that excited me almost as much as the LEAP and the win was McD going for it on 4th and goal up 17. He kept the foot on the pedal instead of "taking the points." 

     

    I really didn't think he had that in him, as I've very critical of his game management skills. So that was nice to see.

    he went for it on fourth from the 1 while we were up on the raiders last year.....

    Don't know where you got that, but elsewhere, STATS has the Bills in a five-way tie for 10th worst with five drops, behind Cleveland and Denver with 6, Jax and the Bengals with 7 and the Vikes with 9.

     

    http://stats.washingtonpost.com/fb/tmleaders.asp?range=NFL&rank=232&type=Receiving

     

    And three games and 88 passes are not a great sample yet.

     

     

     

    its not about how big the sample size is. It’s about showing how bad they have been in that time. And it’s bad. End of story. There’s really no way to spin it. 

     

    The small sample is trending in the wrong direction. 

     

    I cant tell you which link is correct but I give yours no more merit than mine. And neither is a good reflection of the wr group. Other posters provide tons of interesting graphics  from the nfl matchup graphics like i provided. It’s not just bogus because you posted one citing something different.

    With all due respect, it doesn't seem like you've watched the Chiefs or Mahomes at all.  The guy is throwing lasers all over the field, it's not just a stacked team, his arm has defenses scrambling and blowing coverages.  Watch the TD scramble / throw against KC, he might be the only QB in the NFL who can make that play.  The offense around him certainly helps, but to pretend the guy is just throwing screen passes to Tyreke Hill and watching him do all the work scream you are completely ignorant on the subject.

    There isn’t one person on the bills that can go up into a crowd and make the catches hill is making for mahomes right now. I can think of 2 or 3 right off the top of my head that were for chunk yds thrown into double and triple coverage that hill made unreal adjustments to the ball on. One might even call the passes ill advised. 

     

    That has nothing to do with a screen pass. So maybe let’s not claim ignorance amongst others so quickly.

    people can say what they want about this dude off the field. and i'll admit I wondered about him when he initially caused a fuss about coming to buffalo and then had the bar incident.... but what a freaking teammate and professional on the field and in the locker room.

     

    at the end of the day its the national FOOTBALL league, not the national good Samaritan league. ultimate teammate and ball player.

    I remember that one.  A good win but seemed like one of those where we just got lucky.  Bacarri Rambo got two easy picks off Rodgers and Mario Williams closed out the game by getting around the edge at Rodgers in the endzone, if I recall correctly, to ice it.  Mario was pretty dominate in that one and we all thought for sure he would keep that up for a few years.  But oh, good ole Rex comes along and f--ks it all up.  I knew when he fired Schwartz, or let him walk (whatever), things were not going to go well.  Rex was so !@#$ cocky you could see the smirk on his stupid face when he talked about "doing something different" on defense going forward.  What a tool.

     

    This game was a very good example of how much Schwartz really mattered.  Next season personnel was basically the same but entirely different results.  If Rex Ryan were coaching this Packers game, you all would have coasted to a win.

    Gilmore also broke on short outside route and dropped a pick 6. so the luck wasn't horribly lop sided..... that was a downright nasty defense.

    This is just my opinion, but if he's having trouble cutting I think he should sit another week, let stuff heal.  We're gonna need him more down the stretch.

    I "get it" he's a gamer and he wants to get on the bus, not stand on the sidelines. 

    But almost every yard gained last Sun. was brutal

    have they talked about whether it can be damaged any further or if its just a pain management issue until it gets healed?

     

    if its management you let him play and if he's not a liability you keep rolling him out there don't you? but I legitimately don't know enough to say one way or the other.
