And without any doubt, the O only getting FGs on those possessions was frustrating as heck, they were moving the ball. Penalties and miscues were getting in the Os way and those have to be cleaned up. Each team got one possession in the 3rd quarter and the Bill's O moved the ball very well, on that 98 yard drive.

But if the receiver doesn't adjust and take the hot route, the QB won't have time to throw the ball away. At that point it's a sack.

Hah. Mod's shouldn't make the reasons public and I'm pretty sure dad would make the reason public. None of us need that, do we?

Like I've been saying, ask your son. I've been banned before and I always knew why. I might have disagreed with it, but I've always known why. I think you son knows why? Ask him.

It wasn't your son's OP that got him banned was it? Is that what he told you?

I'm not sure the defense won the game yesterday. It was the first game this season that I actually think the offense won the game.

Ask your son what he did

This is my thought as well. The hot read was missed. But as a few other posters have already said, Josh and Beasley know what should have happened and who didn't make the adjustment. These are the kinds of things that the average poster doesn't consider. It's easy to blame one guy and that one guy is normally the QB. Maybe the blame belongs there, maybe it doesn't. And how long have Brady and Edelman been playing, and how long have they been playing together? They're the epitome of the perfectly fitting hand and glove. That relationship takes a few years to build.

We've got a pretty standard bell curve on this subject. 10% that can rightfully so be called Josh haters, no matter how well he does. 10% that can rightfully so be called Josh lovers, no matter how poorly he does. And 80% that are mostly fair, while certainly leaning one way or the other but can at least accept opinions that are adequately supported. Now neither of the posters in the 10% legs of this bell curve believe they are crazy, extreme, whacked out in their opinions. They believe they are "main stream". When they get called out they make claims that the opposite 10% come out in droves. And when the 80% that are truly mainstream tell any of the 10%ers that they are over the top in the love or hate, the 10% try their darndest to group them into the opposite 10%, normally to little avail.

I agree with this. We all knew it was the defense that won the first 4 games, and kept us in the NE game. Yesterday the offense won the game.

LOL. Did you just say the Biils have a great offense that is being held back by Allen?

A couple of things. First of all, if the other 10 offensive players we're all perfect then you would have a point blaming Allen for the offense's performance. Of course we know they weren't. Secondly, I know there is one person that agrees with you , and that is Josh Allen. The leader that he is, he takes 100% responsibility for all of the mistakes and credits his teammates for the successes.

I didn't think this thread was grading the offense, but rather Allen. Do you recognize the difference?

Good luck I think NEs D will make Darnold not look very good.

I'd take the points too if I was putting some $$s down. Picking the phins straight up seems crazy to me. The guy's a phins fan and is picking this one from his heart. He's gotta be.

Is this with the points or straight up? Unless I'm missing it, this is straight up.

I thought I saw earlier in the week that Josh injured his left hand. This says his right hand. This is more concerning.

Looks like Mahomes is good for the next 235 designed runs.

Are you saying Allen can't throw the ball? Otherwise, I'm missing your point.

I'd love to have Kenny Golladay on this Bills team. The kid's a stud and he has a great attitude that would fit the Bill's culture.

Is the talent on the Lions a result of it being Detroit? And does Buffalo have a similar challenge? I'd say yes. Obviously the owners, GMs and organizations all are factors. But holding those other factors equal among all locations, Buffalo has the same challenge in attracting talent that Detroit does. I want the best talent Buffalo can get, but Buffalo will always struggle with getting enough talent to regularly compete for the Super Bowl. There will always be more attractive locations to play at.

Good God, these bye weeks are brutal!

If you went back to 2017 and worried about who you'd pick in the draft, vs. putting everything you owned on the NBA, Stanley Cup and NFL winners, you are $%^*&*^%#^, period!

Somebody has to ask him about this. So very hard to believe.

I'm not sure the Bill's defense is the factor in Josh's performance as much as you think it is.
