  1. Every PeeWee league knows in that situation, you take away the underneath yards, defend the sticks and 1st downs, take away the outside yards and anywhere near the boundaries where they can stop the clock and force them to throw long........if they get a TD out of it, well they've earned it.

     

    You have to force the O to keep the game in front of them, so i don't know what our D was seeing on the last drive.

  2. The ACC, formerly Maple Leaf Gardens for the Leafs back in the day, used to be the "working man's arena"........blue collar guys could get tickets at half decent prices and a couple of beers without breaking the bank. Owners and investors have figured out where the true money is coming from and have swung towards more of a corporate type thing, where it prices the average person out of the seats.

     

    The pendulum has swung in favor of the money, not really the fan anymore and don't expect it to swing back towards the fans/consumer anytime soon........owners don't answer to the fans anymore, they answer to the investors and it's the "almighty" dollar that holds the bottom line.

  3. And i say unto you, oh my Bills Mafia brethren..........if our team couldn't win one SB in the 90's with (not even debatable) the best O and best D roster that this franchise has ever seen, do you honestly think that we are winning one anytime soon with the O and D roster we have now?!?

     

    I'll wait.

  4. Social media has been showing only 1/3 of the video all week........the section of video only after the crash and the green Charger came into view before the actual accident about 3 seconds behind and from what they've actually shown on this video, it looks like Lacy wasn't involved whats so ever in any incident, was only a casual observer and went on his way.

    The public has been calling for the heads of the police for supposedly railroading the young man and coercing statements from witnesses.

     

    Once you watch the whole video, it's fairly clear that Lacy was at fault.

     

    I mean, the guy took his own life and i don't think he would have if he was innocent.

     

    And i have nothing more to say on this.

    Over and out.

    Elijah Moore could be a deep threat, Curtis Samuel could do it, hell Josh Palmer has the separation numbers for it as well. 

     

    The problem is that it's not prioritized as a need. 

     

    I disagreed with folks on this earlier this season, but I think it's becoming undeniable: The offensive scheme is built around trying to keep the Bills' defense off the field. Since we have Allen it works and it's really efficient.

     

    Frankly I think that's nuts considering our defensive HC. It feels a lot like we're using our strength to cover up our weaknesses, instead of bolstering our strengths to overcome them. 

     

     

     

    I heard this too, that the O has been designed to limit the playing time of the D on the field.......which tells me that the FO obviously knows that the D is an ongoing problem.

     

    If the FO knows the D is and has always been a problem, if our FO is always chasing that "unicorn" for D in the draft by drafting heavy D and McD is a "D guy", then why are they hiding the fact that McD is not good, by redesigning the O schemes around limiting the D snaps on the field?

     

    That, right there, should tell the fans everything they need to know about McD........and how our FO is protecting McD and hiding his shortcomings.

     

    ..........disgusting

    I mean… our opener was kind of cool too.

     

    But considering all the times we’ve stayed up late to see the Chiefs ***** defeat from the jaws of victory only to have our hopes cruelly dashed … this felt so good.

     

    All it was missing was Reid throwing a tablet at the end like Belichick used to do.

     

     

     

     

    Our opener actually didn't really start until the 4th quarter, where the team decided to "turn it on"..........the MNF game last night was back and forth for 4 quarters, a 99-yard pick 6, Lawerence playing out of his mind, etc.

  7. We're not looking for the long ball anymore........we're playing more of a stick-to-stick kind of play, just looking for 1st downs to keep the drives going and as much as it is boring to watch, it's the way today's NFL has been headed for awhile now. It's a system that works, until it doesn't. When teams figure out how to defend the middle of the field and take away any type of running game, well you end up with a system that can't do anything to produce yards.......it becomes stagnant, and we don't have the type of on-field personnel or coaching staff that knows how to change their philosophy or playing style on the fly for making any in-game adjustments to counteract or produce any momentum.

     

    I agree that i would love to see a WR1 that can stretch the field and keep the D's honest, but it's just not in the cards for this franchise.......they just don't see the value in it and wouldn't know what to do in game planning a true field stretcher into the lineup.

     

    The FO is doubling down on their coaching strategy and philosophy of keeping the plays in the middle of the field and as we saw in the NE game and will continuously see throughout the season, it's a system that works, until it doesn't.

  8. I think Keon will be okay, but i've got this nagging thought in the back of my head that i wonder what our O would have looked like with Worthy on the roster.......it eats away at me, night and day.

  9. I'm starting to think we should blow our wads on a true WR1........our D is and always has been unreliable, we've spent draft after draft trying to compensate for our dismal D to no avail and if McD is such a D guru, then fix the ****ing thing already.

     

    At least with a WR1, we should be looking at scoring 30-40 points a game and just be going full throttle on O and letting teams try to play catch-up cause our D ain't getting it done.

     

    Might as well focus 100% on our O

  10. It's beneficial for the league to have NE compete in the AFCEast.......no one wants to tune into to see the Bills smack the pants off everyone in our division every week.

    It puts far more money in the leagues pockets when the Bills actually have someone to compete against in our division.

    I leave for work 2 AM - thanks Keon, Refs, and Joe Brady’s stupid calls for my 2 hours of sleep.  I work in Massachusetts with tons of Pats fans.  That made for a fun day at work today

    I agree.  But Bills offense was off, and didn’t need careless turnovers, too much to overcome apparently 

     

     

     

     

    And that's what i'm saying, the whole team played badly regardless of Colemans fumble, where in games past, the team could have easily overcome some sloppy undisciplined play, but last night..........ugh
