The players? What, is Ken Dorsey coaching players to let the ball go through their hands now?
-
Honestly... players are generally in a position to succeed so far this game. Execution errors are killing us so far.

The Next Four Leading Into the Bye
Avisan replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall
Sure, just pointing out that we are currently 5-3, not 3-5. Far worse teams than ours make it to the playoffs pretty much every year. -
The Next Four Leading Into the Bye
Avisan replied to EmotionallyUnstable's topic in The Stadium Wall
If we go 1-3 it's not over, we'd be 6-6 at that point. Definitely not great, but very much still alive in the playoff hunt. -
Morse/Allen thought that the Bucs were offside, which is why the ball was snapped.
-
The Jets didn't clown on our O-Line, though. Allen just played like a clown that game.

Wait do we still care who wants to have consensual sex with whom these days? Cause I can think of at least a thousand better things to care about Like belly button lint elimination, that's at least one of them Or what I might have for dinner in 50 days, also a good one Or what shade of brown the dirt in my back yard is, also better

Lions are just dominating in the trenches right now, run game is firing and Packers are under siege in the backfield

Beane's drafts are looking better w/ each passing week

Kincaid has been pretty good for us so far this year, had a down game as a rookie against a good defense. It happens. -
Cars often only are stopping to merge from a standstill because drivers in the other lane refuse to let them merge at speed. There is only a "crowd to beat" and room to advance relative to the crowd because of the aversion to proper zippering that utilizes the full lane space available. This is reinforced by the drivers that refuse to make room for other drivers to merge. So instead of there being a quarter mile of slow but steady two-lane traffic with cars slotting in with each other at the end, there's a half-mile (or likely longer) backup of single-file line with no consistent flow, no mutually agreed upon mesh point, and vindictive drivers who refuse to let people merge ahead of them which in turn forces people to shove their cars awkwardly into the lane when they feel like they can. This then causes the dramatic slowdowns and stoppages. Zippering is very effective and is the standard practice in most regions. I thought exactly the same way you did (since I did all of my driving in WNY norms) until I moved outside of the area for a bit and realized that we do merges the complete opposite of how they're supposed to work.

This is a classic example. Merging at speed when possible is the recommended course of action when entering the highway. Once on the highway, forcing cars into a single lane a mile or two ahead of the lane merge instead of maintaining two lanes of traffic that slot in at the end is what causes the slowdowns and backups instead of a natural, steady flow. WNY follows the wrong "instructions" for these things. It is only viewed as "riding the lane as long as possible" here because the bulk of drivers refuse to zipper appropriately by using both lanes and are instead shoving themselves into a long, jerky, single-file mass with no clear mesh point and drivers who don't like when a car dares to merge in front of them while attempting to conform with this insanity.
-
As does most of WNY. It's called "zippering" and it is the most efficient way to funnel cars through a lane reduction when there is traffic. The aversion to allowing people to zipper or, frankly, do anything other than painfully shove cars into a single-file line more quickly than necessary might be the worst feature of driving in this area.

The Josh Allen Revenge Tour Has Begun
Avisan replied to Scorp83's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
... Bruh, what? -
If we're going with that era, I would argue that Duke could be our David Nelson. Those first couple seasons he caught everything thrown his way despite not being much good at separating. Eventually the catch rate fell off, and the injury sealed his deal, but he was an important part of the Gailey-Fitz offense.

Bruh. Who hurt you? -
Clock kept running, too. Should have been 15 more seconds on the clock.

Bills at Browns Post Game Post Mortem
Avisan replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Welcome to 2019, buttercup. QBs have to do more than be tall, tough, and strong-armed these days. -
Bills at Browns Post Game Post Mortem
Avisan replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
For everyone complaining about the lack of rushing attempts: The Browns overloaded the box for most of the game to force us to throw. It was bad. They were so confident we couldn't beat them through the air that they often had one more player than they "should" in the box based on our formation, and we still couldn't consistently throw it. The third down play on the final drive is a perfect example of how little they respected Allen. Just look at that uncovered bunch! 40+ QBs in the league would identify the blitz and complete the throw. Our starter cannot. Playcalling could be better but Allen is abysmal. -
Do the Bills ignore WR in the draft again next year?

What blows me away is how many people are perfectly content averaging 18.1 PPG on offense This fanbase is delusional -
TNF: KC @ Denver 8:20 ET on Fox and NFLN
Avisan replied to Hapless Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall Archives
Some well-designed overloads but the Broncos need to make some serious halftime adjustments for their blocking assignments
