    Not with Brady. Allen’s passing numbers are way down with Brady as the OC.

     

    He averages 40 yards per game less passing with Brady than he did with Daboll which is a huge amount. 
     

    So I agree in some years with you but not with Brady it has been a hold Allen down throwing the ball and run the ball more tactic with Brady as the OC. 
     

    Brady just needs to let him go and quit trying to control him. 

    I'm not talking stats. I'm talking overall tone of what Josh does early in the year (more conservative) vs late in the year (balls out).

     

    This literally has been a theme going back to Dorsey. We have talked about it on these boards year after year. And some still seem shocked. 

     

    Every year is a broken record. It opens up with "Unleash Josh, let Josh be Josh" ECT and then the season goes on, and he plays more "Josh Ball". The pattern this year is exactly the same as it ever was.

    He probably won't be here anyways

    And I'm not a cap expert I think I was wrong even if we trade him we still have the dead cap so I think it's here regardless 

     

    Whether we trade him or cut him we have the dead cap

     

    But the bills only have 2 million cap space right now.. technically getting 3 million in Dead space would prohibit us from signing anybody today if we cut him unless we restructured other people

     

    Right now cutting him would be 7 million Dead space.. and that would put us over the cap

    True. 

     

    But he's likely to stay here regardless for the season. It's a bit late in the year to work in a brand new guy at the position, learn the playbook and get reps in. 

     

    we already have Samuel and Hardman out. Both have had a vast history of injury. Gabe is coming off a significant injury that took him a very long time to heal from. Shakir has been banged up this year. We are going to see a time when Coleman is needed to take snaps again this year IMO. I think what he shows then will go a long way to determining his fate.

    We're already in bad salary cap space.. his cap hit is only 2 million dollars... Cutting him is over 5 million in Dead space 

     

    That could actually make us sign one less guy.. we need someone to take his contract from us 

     

    Cutting might make us sign one less player because we're going to lose 3 million of cap which is an NFL player

     

     

    We aren't missing out on an impact player because of three million of dead cap. That's where void years come in.

    I took a look and nobody seems to have mentioned this. Including the game announcers.

     

    On Tampa's second attempt at a 2 point conversion, Sterling Shepard made the catch but out of bounds. But he would've been inbounds except for the beautiful play by Bishop. Shepard went up two or three yards from the boundary and was going to come down in bounds but Bishop was right behind him and he just carried him right out of bounds so he couldn't get even one foot in bounds.

     

    It was a really nice play.

    Didn't turn out to be important. But it could have.

     

    Beautiful play with good awareness, body control, speed and strength.

     

     

     

     

    Good football IQ and awareness there. Bishop could be a very good player for a very long time. 

  5. How do people still not realize we do this dance every year? We start the season with Allen reigning it in a bit. First month to two months of the season, not so many designed runs. Let Allen avoid taking a lot of shots early in the season. Then around the bye, the gloves come off and Allen goes wild with running, taking more chances. 

     

    It's a long season and reducing Allen's hits early in the season is a calculated move by the Bills.

    When do elevations get announced? Not sure what the Thursday timelines are. 

    I have been looking around and haven't found anything yet. I imagine it will be Gabe and Latu again, but it's not official.

    Curious team as they beat Baltimore 44-10 and beat the 49ers. Their #1 defense in being good against both the run and pass. 

    Wins are wins in the NFL, so I don't say this to take anything away from them. But they caught the Ravens in the middle of mass injury throughout the defense and no Lamar. And San Fran with Mac Jones. That helps. 

     

    This "#1 defense" gave up 29 points to Duvall Barbie and the Jags just 11 days ago.

    I expect Vic to get a look this offseason for HC gigs

    He may get a look...but I think he takes himself out of the running for a lot of teams. 

     

    IIRC, he's from the Philadelphia area. He wanted to go back to be closer to family. He's getting up there in age and is at a point where spending time with family can supercede coaching aspirations. It wouldn't shock me if he has a very small list of teams he would even consider coaching for.

    Why would they bring him back this week?  Things worked well last week.  Completely the wrong message to put him back in. 

    I was kinda hoping they might bring him back this week. With Samuel and Hardman out and Shakir missing practice all week with the birth of his baby (congratulations to him by the way) and missing Kincaid....it may have been the perfect storm to have him see some snaps in the slot this week.

    Not sure if it's completely out there yet, but there is talk on X that Keon is down again tomorrow.......

     

    With the injuries to Samuel and Hardman, man....what a bad look for Coleman if he can't get a jersey with both of them out.  

     

    But for me anyway, if this is indeed true which I have every belief that it is, I have no problem with it.  Kid is handed an NFL opportunity on a silver platter and if he chooses not to take it seriously and not put in the work it takes to be great, then that's on him.

    Looks like the information trickle has begun.

    One game at a time. We can't worry about our game with them yet, and we knew that Burrow was most likely playing against us anyway. I hope they can take NE down, and thats all I care about for them, currently. 

    False. 

     

    The TEAM needs to move one game at a time. As fans it makes zero difference what we do. Heck, I'm already on to the Wild Card Round.

    You're all happy that Burrow might play because it could give the Bengals a chance against the Pats? How about if he does play, they win, and then they win again on Thanksgiving in Baltimore? Then you are getting a hungry Bengals team, with a healthy Burrow, Chase, and Higgins in Orchard Park. You really want that? When people are gaming out the remainder of the season, they are always putting a "w" in for the Bengals game. It might take 45 points to get that win if Burrow is back and they are playing well. And even then, it might come down to which team has the ball last.

     

    And even if they still lose to the Pats and Ravens, once Burrow is back, he's back for the rest of the year. I wanted no part of that for the Bills, but it looks like we're going to see how good our secondary is against the best QB/WR combo in the NFL. 

    Their defense is worse than ours. I don't mind a 44-41 shootout win.

    Weeks?!?! Where have YOU been for the past 3-4 seasons? This is not a new problem in 2025. 

    It's not new, but it's gotten aggressively worse over the last few seasons. 

     

    Buffalo brings in player that in theory can stop the pass. Can't remember when the last good 2 down run thumping LBer played here. Brandon Spikes maybe?

    I think Keon sits another week and Moore gets in there for Samuel. 

     

    Keon is just hurting Josh's progressions.  He's not available off the snap and there's going to be no time against Houston to mess around.  If Keon does happen to play, I think he gets fewer than 10 snaps.  My predictions for WR's this week:

     

    Shakir

    Palmer

    Shavers

    Gabe

    Moore

     

    I strongly disagree on your first sentence. The prevalent rumor is that he was set to play last weekend until he missed a meeting Friday. I actually think that's a true one. 

     

    I do agree that he just hurts the progressions. But if he plays I think he will see more than 10 snaps, some coming in relief of Shakir who is banged up as well.

    So, it's almost certain that Coleman will be active. If this team is all all serious about seeing if Coleman can produce this is the week for it. 

     

    I think they should keep Davis, Palmer and Shavers in a nice rotation on the outside and Coleman and Shakir taking reps from the slot. 

     

    Houston has 2 good outside CBs. Let's see Coleman do some work in the slot and see if he's salvageable in the least

    This is supposed to be your year and there was never a better opportunity.

     

    Then you lose to the Dolphins. 

     

    Joe Burrow is committing career suicide with the Bengals(and his injuries are his fault), pretty much leaving the AFC to Josh and Patrick. Now, Lamar is about to make a brief appearance(after 2026 he should decline).

     

    You were looking good. You have virtually HFA over KC and whoever comes out of the AFC North. The Colts are a sitting duck. But you are behind the Patriots in your division. The Chiefs are behind Denver.

     

    This is the 2008 version of the Mahomes and Allen rivalry. Brady got knocked out all year and Manning was recovering from surgery and playing injured most of the year. The Pats lost the division and Manning didn't win his. And the Steelers, the third wheel powerhouse team then, took advantage.

     

    This just might be the year Josh and Patrick are wild cards. And guess who is going to probably pick up the tab? The one person who could only win in a scenario like this.

     

     

    Lamar.

     

    I would also wager to say both you and KC are wild card exits, KC's first with Mahomes and Josh's since his sophomore year. The Ravens will sit at the fourth seed hosting the Bills in the wild card round and then proceeding to go on the road against the Broncos and Colts, who do not have the pedigree to win the AFC. Vrabel is one of the few coaches who have punched Mahomes in the mouth so that exit is very possible(they could win in KC even).

     

    I hate this for you, so I hope you win the division. KC has a harder road and I think the double whammy occurs if they lose their division based on the narrative. 

     

    But this was the year. You're not gonna get KC this low again and I'm pretty sure with the cupcake schedule next year(NFC South and AFC South) Joe Burrow will take back his division and Lamar is due for a breather. 

     

     

    Dude, you're a Saints fan. When your team is closer to the #1 overall pick than the playoffs....maybe sit this one out 

     

    Are you possibly related to a certain Packer fan?
