  1. Josh threw some dumb INTs, but I don't know why the Defense gets no blame for allowing 174 rushing yards to the Jets and a career best passing day to Zach Wilson. Bass missed a FG too. Plenty of blame to go around
  2. Bills fans when the old washed up has been turns out to actually be an old washed up has been
  3. Apologies if this was discussed earlier in the thread... Does anyone find it ironic that the NFL is OK with a team sitting it's starting QB in an obvious tank move ? They investigated the Dolphins because a disgruntled/fired coach (Flores) claimed the owner would pay him money to lose games in his first year. They apparently don't care that the Raiders are actively throwing 2 games to end the season. The Bills did the same thing to Tyrod in 2016 and I thought it was a pretty shady move then
  4. I don't have any complaints about Mitch Morse's play, but is he really the 2nd best center in the AFC ?
  5. No he's not becoming a diva. He's always been a diva. Still the same guy he was in Minnesota (which isn't a bad thing when the team is winning)
  6. The Fail Mary was Seahawks and Packers with scab refs https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wXGFZkIEMK0&ab_channel=NFL
  7. Watkins has a lot more tread left on his tires than Brown or Beasley. I'd sign him to the PS if he clears waivers and is interested in playing here.
  8. How many NFL players have been injured by a snowball ? If we're serious about player safety... playing in 120 heat index is significantly more dangerous than having snow balls thrown at you. Korey Stringer died of heat stroke in 2001. The Bills had 3 (?) different players leave the game at Miami early due to heat related issues. Not to mention countless cramps. Sure, it's not exactly a 1:1 comparison as snowballs are fan behavior whereas heat is just nature.
  9. Final penalty count was 8 on the Dolphins for 51 yards and 7 on the Bills for 51 yards. That's about as even as it gets. As far as that fans complaints 1) The flag was in the air b/c they were going to call defensive holding. You can see the defender grab McKenzie's shoulder and yank him back. Easy call. The refs then huddled up and decided that, in addition to the defensive holding, the defender interfered with McKenzie. Also a pretty easy call. 2) Even though Allen threw it directly at the linemen there was an eligible receiver in the vicinity. Not grounding 3) Refs were generally letting the secondary play. Lots of contact went uncalled for both teams. Including a clear OPI on White that took an INT opportunity away. 4) See 3 5) You can't start a hit on a QB a full yard out of bounds and then say it's not roughing. Don't care how hard he hit Allen or if he was "trying to hold up" 6) The refs didn't give Tua the head first slip at first, but they did correct the spot before the snap
  10. Classic McDermott/Frazier defense against a good offense. You can forget about taking the best weapon away from the other team. You can even forget about picking our poison. We let every weapon go off
  11. In 15 years of playing FF I just had my most devastating playoff miss. In the last week the only way I could miss the playoffs was if: 1) I lost my matchup AND 2) The 3 teams that trailed me by 1 game each won their matchups (and won tiebreakers) I lost my matchup by 15 points. I started Kyler Murray, Tyler Boyd, and Davante Parker (I had Olave and McLaurin on my bench due to week 14 byes). All THREE of those different starters got injured early and combined for <5 points. All I needed was a non-terrible game from Murray (let alone the other 2 guys) and I would've won. The other 3 teams all won their games and I narrowly lost out on the PF tiebreaker.
  12. The unverified one could be Jerry Suilivan with the first "i" capitalized
  13. Did anyone read the article and not just the clickbait tweet? He wasn't in the building b/c his wife went into labor. He's not immediately coming back because he has a knee injury and going to IR. Last week, Smith addressed the press and gave a preview of the looming decision to make a change at quarterback. “We will have some very intense meetings in the next couple of days. Obviously, I know where we’re at. We understand, too, that we’ve been in some close games lately and we need to get back over the hump,” Smith said. "There will be changes made. Everything that we decide to do I will be as transparent as possible.” That day, Smith also informed the press that Mariota wasn’t in the building because his wife went into labor with their first child. Smith added on Monday that Mariota was also likely to be placed on injured reserve with what Smith described as a “chronic” knee injury.
  14. I'm not hostile to the signing. I don't think it made the team worse. I don't think it made the team better either. I think it's about a coin flip chance that he'll be more impactful than John Brown (0 catches on 1 target in 2 games).
  15. Did you watch 2021 Cole Beasley when his production took a nose dive as he got older and injured ? He looked washed in 2021 playing for us, and he looked worse on the Bucs in 2022. Beasley might have some familiarity with the playbook, but he never played in Dorsey's system. His rapport with Allen has some value, but not enough to make up for his physical deficiencies.
  16. Beane bringing in another washed up has been just because it's a guy that Beane is familiar with. You can go out there and find a better UDFA than Beasley or ***** a guy like Kumerow off a PS. This is not a team that needs veteran leadership. If, indeed, Beasley is a "leader" at anything other than mouthing off on twitter. Edit: I used a synonym for "grab" that this site censored. Didn't realize it was banned lol
  17. It's way too early, but based on on-field production relative to draft status I'll go with these ratings: Elam - 5 - wasn't terrible when he was playing (wasn't great either). Healthy scratch for the past few games. Cook - 3 - Got off to a very slow start with fumbling his first NFL touch. Looked like an NFL quality player vs NE and CLE. Bernard - 1 - Looked like a wasted pick when we made it. Continues to look like a wasted pick Shakir - 3 - Barely played, but that's not bad for a 5th rd pick Araiza - 0 - DNP Benford - 9 - Looks like at least a playable depth guy. That's great value for 6th rd Tenuta - 0 - DNP Spector - 0 - DNP Elam, Cook, and Shakir have all shown flashes to make me think they can be quality starters in the years to come. But for now they've barely contributed to the current season.
  18. A lot of our problems this year have been player's execution and not coaching. How many drops did we have yesterday ? Holding penalties ? False starts (inexcusable at home) ? Player mistakes either flat out killed drives or put us behind the sticks in a poor weather game. The mistakes have been a theme all year. So has poor O-line play in general.
  19. Does that mean social media rushing to judge him guilty before police/prosecutor investigated the claims was a mistake ?
  20. Pretty darn bad, but maybe we can restructure it to mitigate the damage Von Miller's contract by year: Active Dead Cap 2023 18.7 40.2 2024 22.2 22.8 2025 21.2 7.4
  21. Off the top of my head contracts that are worse even if Von Miller never plays again Russel Wilson Kyler Murray Deshaun Watson (that's a spicy take but we'll see) Kenny Golloday Dee Ford Michael Thomas
  22. RB does become a need if we let Singletary walk, but for the love of god, do not draft one in the 1st round. O-line and WR are bigger and more important needs.
  23. The Titans haven't had a losing season under Robinson and have 4 playoff appearances with 3 playoff wins. That's pretty impressive with Tannehill and Mariota at QB The problem might be with first rd draft picks: Year Pick Player name Position 2016 8 Jack Conklin T 2017 5 Corey Davis WR 2017 18 Adoree' Jackson DB 2018 22 Rashaan Evans LB 2019 19 Jeffery Simmons DT 2020 29 Isaiah Wilson T 2021 22 Caleb Farley CB 2022 18 Treylon Burks WR Simmons is the only good pick there. Maybe Burks will turn out.
  24. I was wondering this as well given the timing was highly suspicious. I don't think it makes sense having your best defensive player be the one to fake an injury - they still have to sit out the next play
