Defense should all stand instead of in 3 point, when ball is hiked push all o linemen to the ground and attack Hurts anyway possible, cheap shot anything to send a message about continous running a crap play.

So the Bills made the rules when they cut Matt Araiza, right. Von's gotta go according to the new rules

Yeah the similarities are notable. Putting big time play making talent around quarterbacks with the traits to throw the deep ball and run for yardage works. Athletically, Hurts is a load to bring down but he is less dynamic 2015 Tyrod........who had a higher yards per attempt(8 to 7.5) AND yards per rush(5.5 to 3.6) than Hurts has this season.
I'm not going run Hurts down too much because I think he is a very smart, well prepared QB even if he lacks great arm talent.........but it would be interesting to find out what he'd look like if AJ Brown or DeVonta Smith went down for about 8 weeks or so. As you and I know, the quality of that second option is hugely important.
Hurts is surrounded with better talent and a far superior coaching staff. IMO the Eagles have the best coaching staff in the NFL.
But yeah, I see Hurts as a better version of Tyrod, very similar players.

See your got me all twisted bro. Josh is a great QB. Maybe a hall of famer. There are areas of his game that need improvement. I was praising the Bills for drafting him. I call it how I see it. I am happy we are perennial SB contenders and he is the main reason for it. . There are maybe 3 QBs in the NFL id rather have. So please see it for it is and not what your heart tells you. Good day sir.
Dude is the best QB in the league, first ballot HOF and you're happy if he is one of the 10-20 best in the league....
Lol.........might wanna make a new eye appt.....haters gonna hate

Not with this coach. Philly is a perfect example of the players doing what they have to do to win and the coach doing what he has to do to lose.

What do you base this on? Do you have any sources or it is just your opinion?
Because I strongly disagree. I am willing to bet that if we lose from here on he's as good as gone. I think he is most likely gone if we miss playoff anyway.
People are underestimating Pegula imo. Yes McD's position seemed strong before the year started, but I am pretty sure they are paying attention too. If basically all fans like me, i.e. those who thought he was a good coach now want him to go, then ownership also has to be affected. JMO of course.
Yup, TPegs has gone through, what, 7 head coaches and 4 GMs with the Sabres. Shows to me he is more than willing to make changes if he feels things are not going right. Does he make the right decisions, debatable but at least he is willing to try instead of standing pat.
The people who think McDermott is safe are kidding themselves. I'm shocked TPegs hasen't already made a change due to the countless McDermott blunders throughout the years.
I think McDermotts seat is way way hotter than most think.

Thing I can't stop thinking about..who's going to replace him out there that might be better?
Did anybody know who McDermott was before he was hired here? or Sirianni, or McDaniels, or Ryans, or Campbell, or Harbaugh before he became coach or Pederson before he bacame coach, or Tomlin before he became coach....... etc
This mindset that nobody better than McDermott can be found is comical, lazy, scared of failure thinking actually, kind of how McDermott coaches.
The most difficult piece to the puzzle is already in place, QB 1, so attracting top coaching talent shouldn't be an issue as it was in the past.

McD O and D regular season ranks should have produced way more playoff wins. His bad coaching decisions are inexcusable.
With regular season ranks like that this team should have won 4 SB in a row, McD teams haven't been close.
Thing that bothers me is TPegs might give him a playoff pass because of his regular season ranks, I hope not.
-
Here is my question, does any other coachs losses rival the kinds of and amount of mindblowing losses McDermott has? I don't even know, but I have to think McD is so far and away the leader in such categories the next guy on the list isn't even close.

It's clear that McD hasn't a clue re: offense.
Brady may be getting more lattitude from McD because McD knows that his a$$ is on the line at this point and he's willing to take that chance and relinquish all control of the O.
Yup, I hear this but what if McD had the handcuffs on Dorsey, ultimatly firing Dorsey as the problem on offense, then telling Brady do what you gotta do with zero restraints to again make Dorsey look bad and McD looking justifyiable to everyone in firing Dorsey even though Dorsey wasn't the main problem. McD is a micromanager ego maniac that blames everyone else and never takes blame for his huge continous blunders.

What would you expect differently out of a different coach with this specific roster and injury situation?
Welp, right now the talentless NY Giants are 4-8 with Daboll as head coach on top of that same talentless team making the playoffs last year.
McD is 6-6 with arguabley 2x-3x-4x the talent the Giants have.
There is no doubt in my mind Brian Daboll would have this Bills team atop the AFC East and in position for the #1 seed in the AFC right now!

The team need a different philosophical approach/direction. Since 13 seconds, it's been steady decline, that's now full on accelerating.
Players aren't dumb, they see it, it is absolutely affecting them on the field.

McDermott is not getting fired. It’s wasted energy. This is his first bad season during his tenure. They found something with Brady. McDermott will be Coach and Joe Brady will be the OC. They waited too long to fire Dorsey. They should’ve canned him before the season started. His inept offense cost the Bills at least 3 games. With Brady running the show the Bills are 9-3. At worst 8-4 right now.
This is a pretty good roster, last 2 years were SB favorites, bets player in NFL as his QB, this should not be happening. It's not going to get any better, and going forward when Diggs goes off at seasons end also!
-
Appearantly Ed Werder reported that through out NFL history team with over 500+ yards of offense, 10+ or more 3rd down conversions and were plus turnovers in a game had been 39-0 until today's Bills loss. Wow, McD needs to be shown the door.

This happened in the NH state football championship yesterday Fortunately it did not end up impacting the outcome. But I'm interested in how everyone here would call this if they were the official.
A pass hits a receiver on the hands. Both hands remain on the ball as the player goes to the ground, but the ball jars loose when the receiver hits the ground. The ball pops up and never hits the ground before it's grabbed by a defender.
Is it a) a catch or b) an interception?
Should be a catch
-
Wow, the Ravens just recovered a fumble and Terry McCauley sp said he had 2 feet down and made a move, confirmed a fumble. The dude today said he didn't have 3 feet down, that was BS

I don't have an answer to that however I do like what I have seen from OC Brady. Would be a shame to lose him.
2 minutes ago, RoscoeParrish said:No. He’s the easy scapegoat. The next man up in the blame game. Our losses are by 6, 5, 4, 6, 2, 3. I don’t think a new HC gets you over that hump. Players are put in a position to win week in and week out. We shouldn’t take that for granted.
If players were put in position to win they wouldn't keep blowing leads late and losing!

Why 3 steps now or it isn't a catch? So every time someone only has 2 feet inbounds before going out of bounds will it be considered an incomplete catch because there wasn't 3 steps? Bills got hosed yet again! This Bills consistently getting screwed has got to stop.

I actually double checked and your numbers seem to be wrong. Hurts has 5 fumbles and 3 lost. Could you post a link to where you're seeing 9 and 5?
Also, I never said it was THE deciding factor or even my deciding factor. You asked why Hurts was getting more MVP talk than Allen. That is a reason why. That's now twice you have tried to twist what was said or straight up ignore what I said and create your own narrative. We can agree to disagree, but there is no need to try and lie or move goalposts to prove a point. Have a great Black Friday, my dude.
Nah, don't call me a liar, I did error on the fumbles as I looked at the wrong column, a liar I'm not! You can't handle I think Hurts stinks as a QB, too bad deal with it!

I agreed, he's not at Josh's level
Here's the thing, it's 2023. There are MANY different ways and styles to play the QB position. Bringing up that he has a bunch of 1 yard TD runs and he's not a RB is just super lazy and outdated thinking. I would again question how much you watch him if you can't bring up the throws he can and does make. And yes, the talent and coaching around him helps. It's the same reason we as fans have been desperate for Allen to get more help, right? It's the same reason so many here want McDermott ousted and bring in an offensive minded coach, right?
You, I'm sure, expect when Allen is discussed that TOTAL TDs and his running game are incorporated into his stats because that's what makes up his skill set, right? Why is it any different for Hurts?
As far as MVP goes, there are 2 main reasons Hurts is ahead of Allen by most counts in the race right now. First the obvious, turnovers. Really hard to make a case for someone to be MVP when they are at the top of that list. Second, team record. Now, I personally don't think that should tie in but that's a whole different topic. But it does and always has. Also, most MVP odds I see Allen is in the top 5-7 right now. So to say Josh is getting no MVP hype is just wrong.
Agree to disagree, I think Hurts stinks and as far as the MVP race goes Jalen has 9 picks, 9 fumbles and 5 lost...Allen has 12 picks, 7 fumbles and 4 lost, if that's your deciding factor on who you think deserves MVP and who doesn't it make the rest of your Hurts is good argument worthless!

If that's your comparison I have to question how many Eagles games you have actually sat and watched.
I've been a Hurts fan since Alabama. Watched him a while now. He is in no way any kind of version of Tyrod. Now is he better or as good as Allen? Absolutely not. But he does fit that offense well and with the weapons he has he's a very dangerous QB to face.
Have watched a bunch of Eagle gams as well as Alabama games. Hurts is and has been surrounded by superior coaches and yeah, he is very similar to Tyrod just better at it. No way is he or ever will be on Joshs level even with the superior players and coaching he gets! I'll give you elite level runner, however he plays QB not RB and a bunch of 1 yard TD runs do not make him great. He gets touted as MVP level and yet Josh gets nothing, why is that? It certainly isn't because he is a better QB, it's the media blowing smoke up everyones rear!

Orlovsky: Buffalo never once forced Hurts to make the harder throw
in The Stadium Wall
Posted · Edited by LarryMadman
Similar in that he doesn't really see the field, pulls it down and runs if the 1st read isnt there, trouble throwing to certain spots, doesn't seem to throw guys open, decent deep ball, waits for guys to be college open, tons of 5-10 turn around and squat routs by WR, dump offs to RB all the time, no seem throws, etc etc. so yeah I think he is very similar to Tyrod and he was very Tyrodish against the Bills as before the last drive and OT he was a whopping 10-19 127 yards and 10 runds for 35 yards, those are truely stellar numbers for an MVP candidate for more than 58 minutes, no? Good runner below average QB, a better version of Tyrod but surrounded by really good talent and superior coaching, prove me wrong, so take your lazy compairsons take and stick it!
