Desert Bills Fan

Nice to see some kudos to Gilliam. the last couple years I thought it was kind of a waste of a roster spot. This year I noticed him making plays on ST and more importantly making some key blocks in the running game to spring Cook. Maybe he has been solid all along? but I never noticed…

Great write up ! Thanks for doing these The absence of presnap penalties was nice to see. the OL played great. One play in particular , saw Brown maul Chris Jones. That was great to see. the DL played great. Loved seeing pressure on the QB. Even though some of the blitzes lead to completions, still took away some deep balls.

Agree with the bold above. And the Bills often start vanilla and end up here.

Some interesting opinions on the Game: Bowen: Key matchup to watch Chiefs coach Andy Reid vs. the Bills' foundational coverages Walder mentioned the Bills' strength at defending the middle of the field, but another wrinkle to consider is their reliance on zone coverage. Buffalo runs zone on 69.5% of opponent dropbacks (eighth most in the NFL), so Reid can work to scheme throws for quarterback Patrick Mahomes. Think leveled routes here, with vertical clear-out routes to lift the safeties and open the coverage voids for intermediate targets. A specific player to watch? Travis Kelce, who just had a season-high 99 receiving yards against the Commanders. I think he will be a major part of the matchup. Maldonado: My favorite bet for Week 9 UNDER 52.5 points in Kansas City Chiefs at Buffalo Bills Buffalo is not built like the old version that lived on chunk plays. The Bills are run-focused, averaging a league-high 164.4 rushing yards per game, and are willing to take what is given to them. Meanwhile, Kansas City dictates pace, uses the run and leans on possession and patience. The Bills' injuries on the interior defensive line (defensive tackle Ed Oliver is out indefinitely with a torn biceps) could matter, but that does not automatically turn this into a shootout. Instead, this matchup could turn into a ball control script, as both teams are within the top three leaguewide in time of possession. This one will be tight, physical and decided by execution -- not explosive plays. i sure hope Kelce does not go off on us. and I would like a tight ball control game where Cook is our hero!

The “digital” measurement for first down measurement - versus bringing out the chains - is the dumbest/ worthles use of “technology”

Rasul Douglas making a nice tackle!

And our emergency kicker is???

The Commanders went no huddle last night. Put pressure on Spag’s D, in they could not substitute much. Something different…

The Bills added 5 new coaches: Chris Tabor (special teams coordinator) Ryan Nielsen (senior defensive assistant) Mike Pellegrino (nickels coach) Jason Rebrovich (assistant defensive line) Turner West (assistant special teams) Will Greenberg head strength and conditioning coach Barry Rubin senior strength and conditioning assistant At this point in the season, I don’t think there is any improvement on special teams, defense or S&C. Not heard any kudos from McDermott or Babbich that there was any big contributions. too bad, thought we might see some improvements from new blood.

It is just so blatant! And not one of the refs throw a flag?

I think Coleman is due also!

I think he got bowled over the last time we got the roughing the kicker call…

The 4077th

Gotta have faith

Wow, something weird going on with the schedule on TBD, it brings up the 2022 schedule for me 🤷🏻‍♂️
