He is, but then he isn't. That's what makes him Incredibly frustrating to watch at times. You see his athleticism fly around the feild, then you watch the screen play in the first quarter, o lineman who isn't half the athlete edmunds is from 10 yards away open feild blocks edmunds into the next area code and gives up a big chunk play. He has every tool an athlete can hope for, I just want him to take that next step.

Ya his famous arm tackle

Edmunds getting completely taken out of the play on a screen by an o lineman he saw coming 10 yards away. These are the things that drive me nuts about him.

I'm already loving all the "bills overrated" talk. Any body remember what team and qb looked like absolute garbage week 1 last year? I welcome the trash talking, bills play better as under dogs.

I like alot of your points. The ball handling by josh continues to scare me, disciplined defenses are going to exploit that. I will say I actually liked the work from our young D ends. They collapsed the pocket quickly. And Pittsburgh got away with many holding penalties today. Even so big ben gets the ball out so quick he's tough to sack. Stats wise it wasn't great pass rush but I'm excited for the future.

I agree with that sometimes our answer seems to be "i know your getting hammered but go be special josh, make magic happen." If anything I'm more worried about the continuation of our atrocious 3rd quarter play, not only did we not adjust but we came out looking flat after half like much of last year. At some point it's not coincidence, something needs to change about our 2nd halves.

As far as an offensive game plan, everyone has a plan until you get hit in the face. The bills got hit in the face when the steelers front 4 could not be stopped. Watt could have had 8 sacks if Allen wasn't an athlete.

I agree about some suspect play calls on 3rd and 4th downs. But I imagine when the steelers don't have to change packages or blitz at all cuz the front 4 are absolutely destroying our O line it makes it very difficult to scheme. You can't catch them on a blitz or out of formation cuz the Steelers were literally beating our entire offense with 4 guys.

I agree, I think everything kinda stemmed from the O line getting absolutely owned by the steelers 4. The pressure stressed Allen, making play calls difficult. Not sure why everyone is saying Allen played like trash, he had an off day but there isn't a qb in the nfl that succeeds from that kind of front 4 pressure. (See mahomes superbowl). We made a few huge mistakes against an elite D. You don't win games that way.

1. Steelers are better than they get credit for. 2. How did the bucs beat the cheifs? Got pressure with 4 didn't have to blitz. O line got murdered by watt today. 3. Coaching decisions were rusty today, take the 3 points when you can against elite defenses. 4. Josh was a little off today but he should have been sacked 10 times today, no qb would have succeeded better than Allen with how under pressure he was. 5. Was not thrilled with play calling on 3rd down or 4th. 6. Learned lessons today, had a down day against an elite defense, that rarely comes out well. The bills are far from a bad team. Could be the kick in the ass we needed.

Game is far from over. I hate to be the guy to grab the pitch forks on daboll, but crunch time play calls have been disastorous today. Hopefully he figures it out Game is far from over.

That's no surprise. Big ben gets that all day

I think that was an option play for josh. Unless that stutter step by josh was by design. I think if he has a hole he takes it, if he doesn't it's a swing play. But steelers D is way too disciplined to fall for that.

Josh thought he had a free play. He's not going to get any help from refs today

Hate the run call

Take the 3. Big ben is gonna keep getting breaks from the refs. Need the points

Considering I've seen Hughes tackled to the ground 3 times on that drive with no penalty...I'd say the refs are throwing big Ben's some bones.

Been saying this all week, why people are sleeping on the steelers is beyond me. They have every piece to be the top defense in the nfl. This is a serious test to the bills offense week 1

I tell my friends its the Brady factor. Cheifs dbs were dragging bills wrs to the ground, 2 weeks later Brady gets 3 penalties In the first 2 drives. Extension of the arm to get separation is a no brainer call. Just glad other teams can now feel the frustration that us bills fans have felt.

The bears making beane look like a genius, our 2 million back up out playing the 20 million lol. I'm not saying Trubisky is amazing, it's pre season. But he looked like a competitive qb that played alot better than anyone on the bears.

Kinda crazy to think but ya, you could argue he's had more success than flutie, tyrod, and Fitzpatrick.

He probably gets in. Not by being elite but staying competitive for as long he has is impressive.

I'd go bosa or watt as well, both just starting their careers

Trey will do well cuz hes an insane athlete in a good system, even if he doesn't become a prolific passer the Shanahan system will make him excel. I think Wilson will struggle at first but with some experience and confidence he will be successful. If there's a possible bust I think it feilds for me, I think he lights it up his rookie year with his abilities but once defenses get tape on him they will make it tough on him. And I think feilds will go through a series of systems and coaches not helping him at all.

As a California in and out native, the entire point of in and out is quick drive through burgers that are quality but affordable. A mainly drive through palm tree themed drive through burger joint in Buffalo in January might be a challenge for in and out lol. But I hope it does cause mainly it pays really well for high school/college students. And where josh grew up does not have an in and out
