  1. Its hard to tell how many stars they have because both the offense and defense are run to limit mistakes and play within what the other team gives you.

     

    The Bills want to go with the flow rather than establishing the flow.   They are reactive rather than proactive.   Its becoming very hard to watch.   Good teams establish the pace, they have killer instinct.  This team is far from that and its getting worse.

    No...he is not...and no amount of saying this bull#### will make it into fruition

    This is the way it goes now.  If your QB isnt Mahomes then he sucks.   Its the way the world works, everything is black and white.

     

    The offense is a work in progress.   He needs to get the deep ball right.  But he also needs some beasts on that side of the ball with him.  They have some nice players there now but there are no real blue chippers.  Also help if the kicker hits field goals.

    Allen could easily be going to the bench next season. Agreed though, he's the only one who is going anywhere (hopefully, the bench). The others are fine, McD does a good job and Bean has done a very good job (minus the QB pick/trade). Even Daboll appears to do an OK job. 

    If Beane didnt find the Quarterback then he failed.   Its the single most important part of his job.

    Its all hard to watch, but according to most on this board, Allen had a good game.   He was absolutely terrible today.   He's the reason we lost. 

     

     

    He wasnt great, but if both kickers make all their field goals the Bills still win 22-20.   Hauschka, Allen, Poor play calling, and bad tackling all played a part.  They lost as a team.

    Mayfield is on a totally different level as Allen. 

    Yes.  He throws with anticipation and accuracy.  Allen is a qb who needs players to be through the route before he fires.  He relies on his athletic ability solely and doesnt really have a feel or rhythm to his game.   He will probably be a back up for a long time in the league but I dont have a lot of hope for him as a long time starter.  Starting to remind me a lot of Ryan Tannehill

    No one is questioning if he has “NFL talent.” I can’t speak for everyone but I’m questioning why he has a “NFL job.” Those 2 things are not interchangeable. Colin Kaepernick has NFL talent but no NFL job. 
     

    Is a QB3/PS QB with numerous off the field incidents a better option than someone like Davis Webb? He’s a guy that people thought relatively highly of coming out as well. If Davis Webb had the EXACT same Off the field issues as Chad Kelly would he still be in the league? I doubt it. That’s where the Kelly connection comes in. 

    Chad didnt ask for 9 million a year or have his girlfriend call the head of a team a slave owner just as he was about to be signed.   Kap could have been back in the NFL if he wanted to be.

    sorry  What a waste of time even skipping 10 minutes 

     

    I should have read the hashtag and known

     

    God and faith has nothing to do with football.  Just ask Tim Tebow.  

     

    Tim Tebow was supposed to be born with such deformities his parents were told to abort him.   Id say he did ok and faith played a huge part in how fair he made it with limited ability.  He was an incredible leader.

    In week 16, three of five possible match ups currently listed as TBD will be scheduled for Saturday on NFL Network: Houston at Tampa Bay, Buffalo at New England, Detroit at Denver, Oakland at LA Chargers, and San Francisco at LA Rams. Start times and Saturday games for week 16 will be announced no later than following week 10, with the non-Saturday games to be played on Sunday.

     

    The TBD games are...

     

    Detroit @ Denver

    Oakland @ LA Chargers

    Buffalo @ New England

    LA Rams @ San Francisco

    Houston @ Tampa

     

    My guess is the games in New England, San Fran, and Tampa are on Saturday. Hope the Bills get the night game! 

     

    Oakland at LAC

    Buffalo at NE

    SF and LAR at night.

     

    Tampa, Detroit and Denver will all be out of it by then.

    Browns are toast. 

     

    Colts, Steelers, and maybe the Raiders are the bigger threat. Bills just have to win most of the games they should and steal one of the Baltimore/Pittsburgh games. 

     

    Win this weekend and they'll make the playoffs, IMO. Lose and things could get complicated down the stretch. 

    You're correct.   I honestly think the Bills need to get to 11 wins.   The Raiders and Colts should both be 10-6, and then you're relying on tie breakers. 

     

    Thats why I say this weekend is such a big game.   You cant expect them to win the Ravens, Patriots, or Cowboys games, as such they need to beat the teams the teams they should beat.  Out of those teams I think the Browns are the most dangerous.

    Because rankings enough don't tell the story. Efficiency needs to be accounted for as well as volume. For example,  Browns pass defense is low in yards because everyone runs on them. 100+ passer rating means they are carved up by the other teams, never the case against the Bills at 74 rating. Not trying to be a dick, just point out the obvious.

    I think thats a fair point.  Normalization is important.  I took that stats at face value.
