  1. I would agree with most of the earlier posters that say we're better than last season's group and add that the new DLine coach Washington should also be a positive addition that will hopefully boost the position group.
  2. Worth taking a risk on I say... he's got big play potential and cant be any less productive than Yeldon.
  3. I think I'll give it another off season before concluding they've done a poor job. The offence was terrible 2 seasons ago and was never going to become above average in one off season. It did show some improvment last year due to some smart additions in FA and acquiring singletary in the draft was a good move for now and the future. This off season needs to focus on bringing in high quality at some key positions on the offence, not just numbers, I'll defer judgement until the start of next season.
  4. I'm assuming this is speed tracked in a game situation rather than them coming to training and asking them to do a timed sprint, if so the top speed measurement depends a great deal on game context, i.e. has Dawson Knox been in a situation where he has caught the ball in space and has had the chance to open up and sprint for more yards? I cant remember too many instances of this for Knox. He was usually wrapped up quickly or fighting (very effectively at times) against tacklers for more yards. Just my take.
  5. That's correct. 5 hours unless daylight saving.
  6. Exactly...this cant be fair either way. I'm all for London games as it's a short trip for me and I would love to see the Bills live in London next season... But I dont think divisional games in London work at all.
  7. I see Watson is rested for the Texans tonight. Only a snap or 2. Are they resting many other starters? And is fuller definitely out for next week?
  8. Yip. All on the first drive.
  9. I've got it for my son, who's 10 this Christmas in the hope that the Bills are now good enough to make the gameplay enjoyable/manageable for him without having to play as a higher rated team to enjoy it - I couldn't possibly allow that! Madden 1990 is the reason I'm a Bills fan … I'm hoping he follows the same journey, he's taken more interest over the past couple of years and will be watching tomorrow night when Ed Oliver sacks Brady 3 times and we beat the pats!! Go Bills!
  10. That was superb. The in studio team on the UK broadcast were all about Dallas in the build up and during the 1st quarter.... how satisfying it was to witness their realisation that this Bills team are for real. Bring on the Ravens! Go Bills Happy Thanksgiving to you all from across the pond.
  11. Duke inactive again... was hoping he could be used a bit today to help the offense. Anyway... GO BILLS! Interested to see if this week's talk translates to a more open offensive performance.
  12. Locked on Bills for me... fits in nicely on the morning commute and Joe Marino gets straight into the content without any filler. All credit to him for his 5 days a week service. Also enjoy The Buffalo Beat as a once per week podcast. Podcasts like these allow the far away fan feel closer to what's going on with Bills and they are much appreciated. Long may they last.
  13. The following is not my take btw, heard it on a podcast this morning and it made sense... Our defense is limiting the opposition to so many 3 and outs, plus our pass defense is so stifling. This means that our D is facing fewer plays per game, and fewer high risk plays, therefore we have fewer opportunities to make interceptions etc. compared with other defenses.
  14. The breakfast in bed wasn't for her benefit... it was for mine, and the Bills! I'm trying everything possible to build up all the credit I can so the football gods will shine on us later!!
  15. I'm in the same timezone as Gunner... up a few hours ago... Lego building with the 6 year old... made wife breakfast in bed... told her I'll do whatever she wants me to do round the place until 5pm this evening, after that... I'm off the clock and don't even think about peeling me away from the screen. Mixture of nervousness and excitement for this one... I'm preparing myself for disappointment but a thread of hope lingers strong... so LETS GO!!
  16. If we lose that week 17 game to a late ficken field goal I'll throw the TV out the ficken window.
  17. Teams with 4 turnovers or more than the opposition had a record of 6-177 before tonight according to 'Around the NFL'. (Apologies if someone else had dug this stat out earlier in this thread...just heard it now on tv) Superb comeback ... the beer tastes great tonight! Great to see both Murphy and Lawson show up when we were so concerned about the production at DE other than Hughes. Promising signs for Singletary too... and Josh bouncing back from a first half he must have been fairly down over. Monday morning doesn't seem so bad anymore. Go BILLS!
  18. The team spirit and togetherness sure looks off the charts. There's no gaurantee that translates into wins but it surely cant hurt. Good to see.
  19. Me too.... especially when the first letters I saw were DE!
  20. Plus no idea who the starting QB would be. Things looking much better.
  21. Such a shame we don't have an O to go with this D. Hopefully we can get it going this drive.
  22. No mercy... drill them into the ground please Mr. Allen.
  23. Great post indeed OP. Hadn't seen that one.
