This is your best option. Quality is usually excellent.
Yes but almost all go on and off, losing the signal, or "pausing" during play. I've yet to find one to just watch all the way through
And I'd love i I could watch later, even if it's 6-24 hours later, skip the ads! In most streams, you get silence during the ads, it's just the tiiiiiimmmmeee

The "fans" that "demand excellence" that I know personally are not exactly demanding it of themselves in their own lives and work... Far from it in fact.
Easy to demand excellence, and of course as fans it's quite fine to put the pressure on the players to perform at their best, and on the management to bring and mold a Superbowl team, hell a 19-0 team! But bitching and moaning and booing at the very first chance will get the results we want?
Take Peterman. Would I personally rather see Allen in there? YESSSS!!! But Nate has done the best one can possibly do in his situation, And he is the Bills QB. So why should I vomit all over him before the season has begun? I'll judge him on his plays, keeping in mind the situation he is put in. No room for a repeat 5 pick game, but there is room for other stuff than perfection or "excellence" this very first game

Reading the posts is not relaxing ha ha. And to the downers, don't worry, I too will foaming at the mouth and screaming at the screen from time to time. I guess the difference is I don't expect perfection, far from it, and I won't judge the coaches and players from ONE game, especially the offense on the first game. Do I want a repeat of last year's San Diego game? Or of the 3 game stretch awful plays? Hell no. But just think that they made the playoffs despite this happening! So yeah, my "relax" still stands. And of course it's for myself as well

I don’t think many fans have high hopes for this offense, but if they’re terrible fans will complain. That’s just how it is, even when expectations are modest. It is true that offenses are usually behind the defenses early in the season; perhaps that gives the Bills a better chance in this game of surprising the Ravens. I’m not counting on it by any means. The sloppy conditions might balance things out a bit and lead to a few turnovers.
Yes, indeed. For everything you wrote. Except that some "fans" have a very low threshold of what is "terrible".
Anyway, can't wait for the game! Do I think the Ravens have a better chance at the W? Sure. But I dislike that gloom'n'doom talk that the Bills have no chance. Ha! Hope they prove the doubters and main media wrong!

It’s a little easier to accept a “RELAX” when it’s coming from an Aaron Rodgers with a good team around him. The Bills offense has to prove themselves credible before relax can apply after a poor performance.
Of course they haven't proven themselves, at all. But just imagine this board if the Bills offense had performed like Atlanta... (Eagles didn't play that much better but as they won suddenly all is forgotten). The point, more than relax, is perspective. Again if NP throws many picks, no time to relax, put Allen in there. Otherwise, very few offense gel their very first game! Basically a new QB, new OC, etc. going against a damn good defense. We can 't judge by ONE game. Hell after the first Rex Ryan/Tyrod Taylor game against the Colts, featuring all the new toys that couldn't even play during preseason, we would have expected the Bills to be one of the premier juggernauts. It goes both ways, but yeah, I maintain, relax, unless Nate throws many picks again.
5 minutes ago, COTC said:Peterman is our starting QB, and you’re comparing M. Ryan and N. Foles to him?
His two showings last year were a complete and utter embarrassment.
Our confidence in Peterman should be and is 0.0
If this is a down year, it will be because of our poor qb play.
It better not be a down year...
Besides putting Allen in, what can the Bills do that could be drastic to change things up? Am I confident with the cards in the deck right now? Heck no. But they are what they are. And the Bills players deserve some patience, with so many new pieces.
And are you all playing dense? Of course I'm not comparing NP to Ryan and Foles, nor myself to Rodgers BTW ha ha. Just that even the greats perform badly at times so a little leeway can go a long way. 3-4-5 bad games in a row, now get crazy and foam at the mouth. Nate throws 4 picks, yeah, get nervous - in THAT aspect he has no long leach. Otherwise. give'em some room dammit. I for one don't expect to be firing on all cylinders from the very beginning of the season with what is basically a rookie QB and a new OC. To say nothing of that offensive line... -
I'll take a page out of Aaron Rodgers' playbook (he did just sign a $135M extension so why not)
I just hope most fans have a tad more patience than what I read a lot in here. R-E-L-A-X a bit guys.
Peterman is not established, only a 2nd year guy with only quarters of game time experience, and yeah yeah, he threw 5 picks in one half. But did you see the opening game? The SUPERBOWL CHAMPS with their Superbowl MVP Backup QB had gained ONE yard 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter. And Matt Ryan... wow was he bad on that very last drive or what. It was a 4th down and he basically threw it away in the end zone. He had another shot because of a penalty but still, WTH kind of brain cramp was that?
Didn't the 1st half finish 6-3? With two offense powerhouses. Sure both D are also good too, no doubt, but still, both have a reputation for offense.
Point is: offenses don't score on every drive, and most offensive plays are NOT successful. Many teams have 3 and outs or short drives. The Bills have a new OC, Peterman is raw, Ravens D is good. The only legit gripe we can have for Peterman is if he throws many picks right away. Otherwise... RELAX and have some perspective.
-
Allen drew that? When? Hopefully when he was 8 ha ha. Just kidding, it's cool whenever he did it, and good idea to use it, even if it does look like a bloated fish

Did you see the first half last night? The SUPERBOWL CHAMPS with their Superbowl MVP Backup QB had gained ONE yard 5 minutes into the 2nd quarter.
It was 6-3 when I stopped watching and the half was almost over. With two offense powerhouses. (Sure their D is good too, no doubt, but still, both have a reputation for offense)
Point is: offenses don't score on every drive, and most plays are NOT successful.
The only legit gripe we can have for Peterman is if he throws many picks right away. Otherwise... RELAX and have some perspective. Reading on here you'd think only the Bills have made bad trades, bad drafts, bad play calling, all ex-Bills become superstars elsewhere, etc. Newsflash: none of the 32 teams are perfect! You think even Bellichick doesn't get criticized in the papers? Recall a few years back after their shaky 1-2 start where they did look bad when the Boston media implied that maybe Brady was getting too old and Grumpy Bill couldn't pass his message anymore. Ridiculous.

Learning from the bench in an oxymoron. An idiotic neanderthal idea. Learn something by not doing it. How does that actually make sense to people? Allen played with a bad offensive line and bad receivers in Wyoming nothing new here.
If you think all the coaching, videos, deciphering defenses, running the scout team, etc. don't help, well, sorry. But OF COURSE he'd learn 5x as fast actually playing.
-
It's clear they don't mind him holding out, going for money... till they realized he wouldn't even start the season. Players want to win.

It's one of things I think he actually improved on at Wyoming from 2016-17. People crap over his numbers in his last season but despite having a worse line and worse receivers his interceptions went from 15 to 6.
Nice. Quite an improvement! He didn't have many near picks in the preseason,. Maybe one plus the 4th down throw it up mistake. That was unexpected and a big plus
-
Why did people hate this pick? I just don't get it. I wanted Mayfield but since he was selected first, well, tough luck. It's not like I had deep knowledge of all these QBs anyway, and suspect few of the ranters do. It was well known Allen was classified in all the possible range from the very first pick to early 2nd rounder in the "experts'" opinion, so why be mad at the choice? A lot of "experts" suggested he'd be among the top 4 QBs taken, and he was. I liked his demeanor then and since. I'm glad he's here and sure hope he is the face of the franchise for years to come. Till then, go Nate and GO BILLS

Maybe he's a good ra-ra guy, but can anyone name a SINGLE play where DiMarco did anything notable in a game? I've been massively underwhelmed by him. Expected a lot more impact last year (actually ANY impact), and I honestly never saw a single play where I said, "Wow, nice DiMarco." And now he's a captain? I would think a captain would have to have some respect on the field too.
He's made some nice blocks in the red zone, but nothing that make you go WOW. Well I do recall a blitzing player being totally destroyed running into DiMarco's shoulder when he was in the process of blocking someone else!

People who are stable and healthy, faced with a lowball contract offer, either reject it all together or sign it and move on. It seems very likely that if a lowball contract (not OFFER, contract to which Richie agreed) was a trigger, there was a pre-existing condition primed to be triggered.
Yes but that's what we're saying. We can't blame the Bills for RI going on a total mental breakdown, 99% of players wont react that way, but we certainly can doubt the reasoning behind offering a paycut to one of THE best and most useful player on the team. Too late now, and RI has some important issues to take care of, but that paycut wasn't the best football move IMO, that's for damn sure.

I've been to the stadium once a year for 7 years straight but it's been a while so I'll be looking for tips and all.
My son just called me today to say his school will have as an outing the Bills-Jaguars game! One day before his BDay too! He'll have the details in two days. I sure hope I can join in. It's a 9 hour drive from where we are so we were really (but very pleasantly) surprised with the news.

The Bills approached him about a pay cut and he accepted. Had he said "no" they might still have kept him. Instead he played games and got himself released (and no one knows what went on behind the scenes). Then he went crazy and killed his chances of ever playing in the NFL again. You need to accept the consequences of your own behavior.
He is clearly mentally unstable and has issues. Most likely, they were already apparent to the Bills Brass. So no saying he is immaculate and Saint Richie here! But from a business standpoint, unless he was indeed showing signs of being a nutcase, I still can't understand the logic of asking him, of all the Bills players, for a paycut! He was the tag team partner of Shady in the successful Bills run game. A Pro Bowler last year. He was money, football wise, period. Of course Incognito first accepted the deal then went into a psycho spiral that had not ended yet, but still, why the paycut?

So much optimism here LOL Damn, guys.
And you know what? Most offensive plays fail. 3 or 4 tries to make 10 yards, and it fails quite often. So give Peterman some slack unless he throws picks.
-
With Murphy and Ivory, and of course, SHADY, no need for him on this team right now.
-
I've said this before and will say it again: the difference between 10-6 and 6-10 is just a few plays, ref calls, coaches clutch play selection, and, a big one, injuries.
Bills were unlucky to never go in the playoffs in that 17 drought, and seemed quite lucky last year to end it.
So 5-11, 9-7... all probable. Keep up some FIGHTING SPIRIT and let them play dammit LOL
As all the players and certainly the Bills brass, we fans want the team to win NOW. Yet with Allen, less dead cap money + lots of picks + cap space in the coming years, things are looking bright... especially if Josh becomes that elite QB all teams need.
-
People don't forget about Brady (by the way, who are all the superstars that were late draft picks or undrafted? I got Romo and Warner and that's it)
But the smart money plays the probabilities. The probability of a late-round pick becoming a servicable starter much less a superstar, is very very low.
The probability of a 1st or 2nd round pick becoming a superstar is lower than most people think, but it's higher than the above.
Of course higher draft picks have higher odds to be better! But then, once the draft is done, it's done. Time to evaluate what's in front of you by how they play. And as for superstar players, I didn't write QBs but players. But even so, Brady, Warmer, Romo: that's quite a trio right there! Warner was trowing cans in a grocery, out of football... hard to overtake that storyline. It beats a 5 INT first half.
That being said, I support Nate and all but yes still thinks Allen is the future here. And hopefully an elite franchise QB type of future! I would have been way more excited and on the edge to watch Josh start but will still support the team, QB and coaches to the fullest.

I guess one would hope a 7th overall pick could beat out a 5th rounder from the year prior.
It's like people forget about Brady and all the superstars that were late drafts or simply undrafted or taken after busts, and all the numerous high pick busts. As if the draft was a magical process.
Don't get me wrong: I still can't wait for Allen to be in there! If he doesn't start this year, it means Nate is having one hell of a season and that'll be a great "problem" to have. Otherwise, yeah, I do expect to see Josh sooner than later. And he'd excite me more as a fan, way more. But I'll trust the coaches, and support a guy that has refused to crumble after an horrendous first outing.

Dead cap space is horrendous but mostly on the past regime. Hopefully it quickly corrects itself by the next year or 2020
Difference between 10-6 and 5-11 is a few plays, injuries, etc.
So both are within the realm of very probable. Sobering fact: only 4 teams out of 12 repeated making the playoffs last year...
That's also why Allen pumped us as he brings HOPE. A good QB makes everyone Billeive and play better. But let's not burn the young guy for a 17 years of drought that hapened before him even if he wears #17

Regardless of the fact that McCarron has a little more time in the league and a few more starts, Peterman was far more consistent this preseason. I think Peterman is going to be fine as a bridge until Josh Allen is ready.
They still need 3. Final opinion on this trade depends on who they sign and for how much - most likely one that was just cut
Edit: of course the FINAL final opinion depends on the pick ha ha. But for this year, IMO you can't go with just 2 rookies

I think that while Flacco did not play badly in pre season he is the reason why they will be similar again......when the bullet's fly he simply is not that good.
And we have beaten the ravens in past years regular season.....no reason to think we cannot do it again.
Yes indeed. Besides the 0-16 teams, all teams have beat another, including the bottom feeders. There is always a chance on any given Sunday. I hate the thought process of giving up a game as a loss before it even happened! How many times I've seen people on here count the two games against NE as losses. Sure the odds are greater of that happening than a win, but no one should give up without a fight! That's why they play the game. 0-4 is probable this year yes, but 2-2 or 3-1 or even (gulp) 4-0 is possible! Likely? Nope. But come on.
