  1. That, for sure, and added blockers for more protection from time to time! OL is the weak point, but the gameplan is not helping them at all. OK those were bad times ha ha, but recall when sometimes only Watkins and one other WR ran routes while all blocked? As the opposing defenses can't know when it will happen, they can't just double or triple the receivers. Usually it's a bad idea to blitz Allen but more will do so against a weak OL that has barely blocking help and empty backfields. As for Josh, it's like he has some bad plays and some great ones, but instead of being a good and bad game, it happens in the same game, and out of sequence too. I'm basically saying he doesn't seem to have the same groove, or consistant momentum, but no, he has not "sucked" except maybe the 1st game, even so, it's compared to what is expected of him, not compared to a Losman or Edwards...
  2. Yes it does. This way NO room for judgment calls. Which are the reason this discussion here exists.
  3. Lack of repays was frustrating. MAYBE some of the penalties were warranted but let the fans know! Case in point: I too thought Dawkins UR was BS, as they didn't show the hammer drop on TV. He deserved it but that sure was not the impression at the time. Still, what a bad ref crew.
  4. I don't understand how they spend 100s of millions, yet can't built enough restrooms or food stalls. How does it help their bottom lone to make fans pissed off and prefer to stay home? With so many options available now, make it a great experience for live paying attendees! Sure it "costs" them slightly more but it's an investment, not a cost. Again, they put 100s of millions. Bad place to cheap out on.
  5. Th e refs did not cost the game but were truy horrible. Worst reffing I've seen in a ling while..and there's been many bad ones this year. Why I have no idea though. But what a way to start the game. A penalty on Trubinski (!), then the total reversal on giving to White. It set the tone...
  6. It's just weird that in some games, the coaches clearly outsmart the others, and in some like this one, it's like WTH. On offense mainly. Defense only allowed 9 points. I guess the steam comes because in a few games like Steelers and this one, the gameplan seems to bury the Bills, not necessarily the other team. Hum, that's not accurate. What would be is the Bills O does NOT adapt to what is going on, except least week. Yes the OL is damn weak. Who doesn't know that? You think Daboll doesn't? Then why let a weak OL that has injuries and guys playing out of their usual positions, forced to play without help? No Knox but put the FB, an extra OL once in a while, screens, leave a back to block, etc. Don't expose the weak point!
  7. The OL is full of injuries and guys playing out of position. Excuses? No, a reality Daboll has to plan for. Jags were intelligent enough to blitz a lot, knowing without Knox all those empty back sets would leave someone unblocked. Usually blitzing against Josh is not good, but today was the time to do it... and for the Bills to adjust. Yes OUR Josh Allen didn't play great but he was running back there all the time. I won't praise the OL but you got to help them with the gameplan!
  8. I hope on a few plays that the play by play gets real confusing. But yeah, our Josh running through and/or hurdling the other Josh would live forever ha ha
  9. Safeties are the best duo in the NFL. CBs are superb (Tre) or very good. And not only that, there is no confusion and they almost never a leave a guy wide open. They are very good against the run too. Milano is one of the best coverage LB and a damn good blizter. Edmunds and Klein (now that he is used well) are above average, hit and miss. Oliver has had some awesome moments. Star had good games. Rousseau and Epenasa made themselves seen a few times. But yeah overall that DL is the weak point, but they do get pressure, and are not trampled in the running game like in the last 10 years. Hopefully with the heavy rotation they are all fresh and non injured come the playoffs. Coaching and gameplan seems vey much on point this year, more than before. Top 10 defense but doesn't feel like Top3. But hey, if they prove it, yesssss
  10. Is he in last contract year? He had signed another deal with the Chiefs worth about 8M a year (pre Covid obviously). Anyway, it seems he is a Jets now
  11. He is closer to home at least. And still paid more per half game than as a doctor for a whole year ha ha. Crazy those NFL salaries! I did think the Bills should have got him. He's a good RG. I'm surprised he lost his job. Might be more a salary cap issue as if Smith does an OK job his salary is much lower.
  12. Dude would be awesome if the Bills somehow didn't pay much (it happens sometimes in front loaded deals) But even so, even if I love the player, he doesn't fit the Bills. He sometimes got touches on up to 70% of plays (!!!) and with Diggs, Sanders, Beasley, Knox, Davis... there ain't much left to go around. Ask Davis about it ha ha
  13. Jim will continue killing cancer cells. And good for him too!
  14. The Pittsburgh Ugly Bees (when they wear that stripped uniform)
  15. They really are funny. But how you sure they are buddies off the field? I sense some pent up frustrations from Peyton even if Brady is cool as can be with him ha ha. Of course there is respect, competitive spirit and all. And they do great on camera but I'm not sure about being buddies.
  16. Well, he'd just save Josh 50% of his earnings. Awesome!
  17. Sanders's addition is bad for Davis... but not for the Bills. Diggs is strangely less open while having a guy that should draw some double teams. More Beasley please also as well. Weird that lately Josh has still put HUGE numbers but with less passes. I mean, many great long plays, which is fine, but less plays by the offense overall. Anyhow, the Bills O is a nightmare for any D coordinators.
  18. Surprising they are still 2nd but IDK what's happening much to the other top teams. I'm in the camp that RBs can NOT be MVPs... but Henry is an exception. Even Tannehill's TD run and half the passes were because the D was focused on him.
  19. My kid's highschool football team played without punts and kickoffs. Punts were 25 yards. Of course for pros it'd have to be more. Sure. you get used to it. But I much prefer how it is now. You guys really want to take this out of the game? It's called FOOTball for a reason...
  20. Hopefully he goes to the WFT or elsewhere. Not in the division.
  21. Yeah me too. Not every team kills the blitzes like the Chiefs and Bills... use them. I thought Star, Philipps and Zimmer did a decent job in the middle. It was the outside rushe that were missing, though Hughes seemed on fire for the first quarter. Titans sure threw quick passes too. I wonder how they gave up so many sacks before facing the Bills...
  22. They have played great all year, including yesterday. And yes, Hyde sure showed no hesitation taking on that coming freight train. IDK if it's coaches, them, both, but in the last years, I don't recall a wide open receiver behind our secondary like we often see in highlights, or like Beasley yesterday, or Knox last week.
  23. Often times, the Bills have used trick plays instead of sneaks... and well the OL is not that great at pushing people back. Still, I'm sure they get this at least 85% of the time. And IMO Josh "didn't slip" on his own, he ran into the opposing DL that wasn't blocked well enough!
  24. If they learn from adjusting against playaction, just like they did not letting the OL hang out to dry like in game 1, that'd be great. And while Henry did not make any significant runs while he was doing a screen instead of running between the tackles, he was a threat and hopefully that gives Daboll the idea to do it more with Singletarry and Moss! They can be good in open space, and no often holes between the tackles for them...
  25. Clearly for the Bills D, Henry was a gigantic factor. Beside his long run, he was good but held in check fairly well. Yet, Tannehill's TD run, and soooo many intermediate passes were because the D was focusing on Henry. In the 1st quarter, there was a few plays with Klein there along Milano and Edmunds, yet it stopped soon after. IDK why. It stopped the run. But yeah, those short passes are what KOed the Bills, and most of these came off playactions. What was a bummer to me is that the Bills clearly looked one of the top teams still, but beatable. And well, being beatable and winning the SB is a harder mix. Doable but it'll be quite the task. Not the overall dominant powerhouse, even if still a Top 8 team. Good point is that the coaches will learn from this, as they did from the Steelers L. Compared to year 1, I feel McD and co mostly adjust real well at halftime. It's the INGAME adjustments they really lack. IDK why.
