The Red King

Bruce Smith. We need a pass rusher and are already allowing former Bills to start for us.

This season they want true parity. There aren't any true runaway favorites. No overpowering, steamrolling teams. Powerhouses like Buffalo, KC and Baltimore are faltering. Upstarts like Indy, Denver and Carolina are joining the fight...though even they appear flawed. Keeps the season more interesting for more fans, and as a result keeps more $$$ coming in.

Actual math statistics, from a college course... ...what are the odds of getting a 'heads' on a coin? 50%. Now, lets say you flip a coin three times and manage to get 'heads' three times. What are the odds you get 'heads' again? 50%. Because the prior flips that already occured have no bearing at all on the next flip. So no, we do not need to lose the turnover battle on purpose to raise the odds against doing so later.

That "deer in a headlights" look on the kid's face choked me up a lil, not gonna lie.

Agreed. I can see both arguments. But I stand by KC potentially missing the playoffs outright.

We've put up 30+ points a game, all three games this season. Last season opposing QBs could set up lawn chairs and sip lemonade waiting for receivers to get open. I think we're okay on offense, and understand the focus on defense. Just gotta get healthy on D.

Ravens. We currently hold the tiebreaker, and they're going to make the playoffs. KC is in a weird position where if they continue to implode they may not. That, and KC can still nab the tiebreaker with us if they beat us. If we meet the Chiefs in the playoffs, I do *not* want it in Arrowhead yet again.

Yeah, division games always make me nervous. I still remember most every year the 'Phins took down the Pats at home no matter how good Brady and the Pats looked otherwise. I'll chuckle at this thread, but not gonna put us at 3-0 just yet...

The Red Carpet? The Turnstyle?

31-27 Buffalo

Buffalo destroyed the Pats early one season, week one if I recall. Brady threw four picks, including one Adams returned with all the glory and gracefulness of a bowling ball going down a flight of stairs. ...the Pats finished that season with a total of two losses and a Super Bowl ring. It's one game.

Honestly, I was dreading a new uni, but I actually really like these. Not as a new main uni or anything, but they're at least thematic for Buffalo. I prefer them to the red jerseys.

Our pass rush was nonexistent last season. If you try and fix it, the best you can do is get enough players to fix the starting 11. You can't get enough players in one offseason to not only overhaul the starting line, but also provide depth. All yesterday proved is that if our starters go down, our pass rush goes with them. Alarming, yes, but not unexpected. Now if the season begins, and our starters can't get to the QB, *then* I'll push the panic button.

That doesn't sound right. Go into the draft a year early, don't like who takes you so you say, nah, dude, and try again next year?

You made my point. I was never down on Josh. I saw the same flashes. But, onto your memory, do you remember these forums that year, calling him "Wrong Josh" and a bust? The point to my reply was that a year is nowhere near enough time to fully evaluate a draft pick.

Diggs is exactly what Josh needed at the time. Then, Josh outgrew him. Still think it's smart paring him with a young QB.

It's one year. One. Anyone remember Josh's rookie year? Beane really dropped the ball on that pick, didn't he? 😁

Buffalo wiped the walls with them in the 90s. I remember a time I felt pity for Pats fans.

The Pats almost scored this on us one year. No, I'm not being sarcastic... https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/patriots-bills-game-nearly-had-the-first-one-point-safety-in-nfl-history

We need to innovate. Beyond the pushing peeps we need some 350-400 pound bulk to start in motion, and then at the snap take all that mass in motion, turn, and just plow into the back of the guy with the ball. 🤣

True. Maybe make a defensive penalty a replay of down, unless it's a personal foul?

Have to sweeten the pot. Offer the mods an early 6th round pick to get it updated sooner.

If they cared about safety, why not use the 4th and 15 suggested variant? Would be exciting, and no more dangerous then any other normal play.

I have yet to win a marathon. So, doing what I've been doing hasn't yielded anything yet. Why not try breaking my leg first? 😆

I agree there is a problem that could use addressing. This, however, is not a good solution.
