[Misleading Title] Dion Dawkins to Covid list

So, he's pretty good then?π -
[Misleading Title] Dion Dawkins to Covid list
BuffaloBillyG replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
They did. I have no firsthand knowledge of how he looked (of course I saw on here a few say he was awful) however if they cut him as soon as Lewan came back (though they did resign to PS) I'm sure he wasn't exactly Tony Boselli out there.ππ EDIT: Made the sacrifice and went to the Titans message board for some idea how he played. Under a search for his name the word "sucks" showed up about 500 times. Some questioned if it was his 1st time in a helmet. Safe to say that even thought his team won both games....it did not go well. -
[Misleading Title] Dion Dawkins to Covid list
BuffaloBillyG replied to YoloinOhio's topic in The Stadium Wall
I agree with what you're saying however I see at least SOME of the point of the unvaxxed athlete as well. Let me get out of the way that if their refusal is political based or centers around the misinformation then I really have zero symphthy for them. However the big 2 points I can see is this. 1. As we see...getting the vax does not automatically translate to staying on the field. 2. If I was an athlete I would have MANY questions about what long term side effect there may be. Especially when the vax first came out. It seems like every 3 months the "facts and science" change for various reasons. If I made my living due in large part to my physical condition that alone is something to take pause and read up on. If Mike the accountant gets his vax and there is some sort of long term issue...he can still be an accountant. What happens if an athlete had a bad side effect that ended their career? Potential for losing millions. Again, this would be the train of thought when it first came out and around a year into it. Now we are at a point where I believe the ones that were skeptics about it for legit reasons have educated themselves and gotten the jab. The holdouts now are by and large people that are too swept up in politics to even care about becoming educated....but hey,they have a snazzy podium collection. -
Yea, it's really a raw deal for teams that played (and lost or tied) with key players due to COVID. If I was a Steeler fan I'd be irate. If the game is postponed due to the fear of spreading...it's a valid reason (not that I 100% agree)...however in the interest of fair play anyone ineligible for it should be forced to miss the game IMO

Mitch Morse. No I'm not kidding. Being possibly without Dawkins we need SOMEONE to step up and be a leader on that line. Enter the man in the middle. Be it Hart, Ford, Ike, Bates.....Buffalo will have have a new (or familiar, yet ug-lee) face that already has a youngster in Brown on it and a QB that is a tad hobbled. Time for him to step up with some vet leadership and pave the way. Keep Josh upright. Open holes in the run game when needed. Step the eff up....or GTFO time.

They have other QBs on their roster? Who knew? Great. A Virus...one more thing this oline can't block. -
AFC Wildcard Rooting Interests Week 15
BuffaloBillyG replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall
That sounds about right, Donuts. Then we would have to beat the Pats and hope like Hades Miami can nip them in the final week. Lots of roads still lead to the division title. I can think of a LOT of things I'd miss 5 minutes of that game for. ππ -

Game Week: Week 15 Carolina Panthers at Bills thread
BuffaloBillyG replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would think one of Bates or Feliciano would be held back to be the all-important break glass in case of emergency back-up center. Can't risk them running into each other and both getting hurt with Morse's concussion history.πππ In all seriousness I almost expect Bobby Hart at LT. Hart-Mongo-Morse-Williams-Brown -

It's ok all. Matt Barkley just got placed on COVID list for the Panthers. That sould even things out a bit. -
Daboll a consideration for Jags HC
BuffaloBillyG replied to DallasBillsFan1's topic in The Stadium Wall
The blocking technique changes on counters and draws. The look is different. Defenders have to react to what they seem. It slows them down. This really isn't rocket science, my dude. I will agree on the issues being roster construction and will add that this regime values position versatility over the mastery of one position...leave the old adage that a jack of all trades is a master of none. -

BuffaloBillyG replied to DallasBillsFan1's topic in The Stadium Wall
Which is why I said not calling the slow plays would help. And who is talking about Moss? Guy shouldn't be active again. You said there is no way to help...I literally pointed out about 6 things they could do to help...because I realize how bad the blocking is. -

Daboll a consideration for Jags HC
BuffaloBillyG replied to DallasBillsFan1's topic in The Stadium Wall
You actually can. First off, a true FB on the roster would be a good thing. A game such as the Pats game we didn't even have one active due to injury. That would help. Running draws, traps and counters helps slow down an interior rush as well. Not calling the slow developing RPOs and run options would help. If your guys are getting overpowered inside...slide the blocking assignment so you don't have your guys trying to square up and block...instead your blocker comes from the shoulder and slides the defender out of the play. These are all fairly common tactics to help an overpowered IOL...many of which we simply do not attempt. -

Yes, hence why I said we would control our own destiny to the AFCE title. -
I can somewhat agree with the thinking to a point. When you face a quick strike offense you get it in your your head all week that you need TDs. FGs won't win again at Mahomes. That was our thought for 20 years facing Brady. However it some point you just need to pile up points when you get the chance. 2 FGs are almost as good as 1 TD. Can't overthink things.
