    Just sign Peppers already. Would rather see what he can do in this defense than Sammy Franklin Jr. 

    He is a special teams ace. That is what he was brought in to do.

    Given Prater is a vet, they probably needed a vet call up from the PS to make room.

    Yep. I bet Bass is inactive on Sunday and Prater is called up from the practice squad.

    Trey doesnt pracice yesterday and may not today or rest of week and Benford was limited yesterday..Looks lik Ingram may start and should be limited or removed from ST out fo necessity so Franklin gets the elevation and the reps and the pay..Prater may be a gametime decision..

    we are starting a 3rd stringer and a rookie (Strong) may have to play (some) for Benford..sub-opitmal

    Benford will be fine. But yeah, when you lose your 1st round rookie (Hairston) and your long time starting vet (White) to injury, what you have left is not going to be very amazing. We're down to our 4th outside corner. Ingram has some experience, at least. Hope he can keep it together.

    Personally, I disagree.  Allen's moves post pocket are relatively designed - it's either a designed RPO w/ Allen Run, designed Allen run from shotgun, Allen dropback and strafe right.  Very rarely does he turn his back to the play to circle out of the pocket - which Mahomes (and Lamar) do often.  Mahomes also will strafe either left or right and then stop, reset, and then strafe further.  I dont see Allen doing that as much.

     

    I think Allen's rollout right is in a way designed.  I dont see that as often with Mahomes' movements.  Just my opinion of course.

    Allen extends the play ALL the time. The receivers know that they have to get into scramble drill rules ALL the time. Allen evades a rusher and extends the play very often. Yes, sometimes Allen rolls out as part of the design, but not all that often.

     

    Mahomes used to be more off script, but their offense has changed. He has turned into a quick release, timing QB more often than not. He doesn't go deep very often any more. Part of it has been adjusting to poor oline play and less talented receivers for them. Yeah, he still extends plays and goes off script quite a lot, but I still think Allen does that more.

    A Different Vibe from McDermott

    in The Stadium Wall

    Posted

    I think he has made a conscious effort to open up more to the media. And since that is the only glimpse we ever get into McDermott as a person and a coach, it makes him seem different to us. But I think it didn't start this year, it started last year.

    Then why does this team feel like it’s not much better than last years?

    Because you haven't seen them play yet and because the Bills have been a top 3 to 5 team for years now and any improvements are going to be marginal because they are already really good every year.

    I've noticed that every person who claims to be a realist is, in fact, a pessimist.

    And a roster full of JAGs to show for it. 

    A top 5 roster in the NFL.

    The only difference between the Bills and those “garbage can” teams you’re talking about is the guy under center. 

    A deeply uneducated and incorrect statement. It is clear you do not know anything about NFL rosters.

    The difference between Lamar and Mahomes and to a lesser extent Allen is when Lamar makes a mistake the defense isn't getting him the ball back.  Josh can play like complete cheeks and be giving an opportunity to win the game.  Lamar was given that very opportunity and marched his team down the field scored the TD hit the TE in his belly and the TE dropped the ball.  The silly thing is Josh severely underthrows the TE.   The TE makes a heck of a play to get back to the ball an attempt to save his QB and its somehow the TEs fault they lost the game however Lamar hits his TE in the stomach and the narrative is Lamar couldn't get it done.  

    Lamar Jackson has a much bigger body of work in the playoffs than just that game. He doesn't rise to the moment, in my opinion. He saves his worst ball for the postseason. He has a 3-5 record, with 1,753 passing yards, 10 touchdowns, and 7 interceptions, with an 84.6 passer rating (plus 6 lost fumbles). That's not good enough.

     

    Josh Allen and Patrick Mahomes play their best ball in the postseason.

    You just happen to apply the degree of difficulty to the catches but not the actual passes.  
     

    Lamar had a routine play, but he double clutched and it threw off the timings. Andrews should have caught it- definitely. But Lamar didn’t execute perfectly.  

     

    Josh made an otherworldly throw that, imo, no other QB could make.  He hit his TE in both hands. Given the circumstances.  Just did a much better job on that play than Lamar did.

     

    I thought the degree of difficulty on Josh’s pass was close to one in a million.  And my boy dropped it.  😞 😢 😭 

    And even if the Ravens would have scored, there was plenty of time for the Bills to go win it after that. A lot of people seem to forget that.

    Shakir played 54% of snaps last year...Cook played 45%

    I addressed that. Receivers switch in and out according to personnel packages. Shakir is a slot receiver, so is especially prone to being taken off the field. But the top receivers play much higher percentages of snaps. Ja'marr Chase plays 80-90% of snaps. Derrick Henry plays 60% of snaps, or less. Barkley played 70%. But most "workhorse" style backs play in that 60-70% range while most top receivers play 75-90% of snaps. Running backs need the rest.
