I would have totally taken the Saints if I hadn't already picked them... Saved from my own stupidity...

Watching this reminds me –– excellent job of blocking by Knox on the McKenzie TD! He just drives his guy straight back and there's nothing the guy could do about it.

This can’t be right. I vividly recall Nsekhe blowing a pickup on a stunt and Allen getting smoked because of it. I believe it was on a completion to Brown. The comment in our house was that Ty was going get Josh killed if Ty didn’t open his eyes.
I wonder if the fact that it was a completion accounts for a positive grade on the play? If the QB has the time to throw a completion then the OL did it's job?

I know these don't mean anything, but it's nice to get a read on the (often wildly uninformed) national perception of the Bills all in one place:
15. Buffalo Bills. The Bills spoiled the home opener of the New York Jets last weekend. In a scheduling quirk, they now have the chance to spoil another home opener in the very same building when they visit the New York Giants Sunday.

26. Buffalo Bills (1-0) Josh Allen looks better than he did at the end of last season, and the defense remains stingy. Still, this formula needs to be more battle-tested before they rise in the rankings.
22. Buffalo Bills (1-0) How the newcomer starred: First-round pick Ed Oliver turned in a strong effort at defensive tackle, but Singletary was arguably the Bills' most dynamic playmaker Sunday. He accounted for 98 yards on nine touches. He started ahead of Frank Gore and should get a far heavier workload moving forward. -- Marcel Louis-Jacques
19. Buffalo Bills (1-0) The Bills scored 17 straight points to close out a comeback win over the Jets, and their defense should have them position to be in most games this season. They get the Giants next.
20 - Buffalo Bills Buffalo’s defense is legit. Josh Allen’s limitations put a cap on this team’s ceiling, though
21. Bills (1-0) Maybe it's Josh Allen, not Sam Darnold, who'll be the young breakout quarterback this fall.

18. Bills (1-0) Bills fans should be contributing to Kaare Vedvick’s foundation.

26. Buffalo Bills If you liked the Tim Tebow experience, you’ll love what’s going on in Buffalo. Josh Allen threw two picks and fumbled twice yesterday. He also won the game. QBWINZ!
16. Bills Coming from down 16-3 to pull out a victory late against the Jets is a good sign for this young team. They are going to be a handful every week.

27. Buffalo Bills One thing to know: Josh Allen continues to look raw as a quarterback, but he remains the Bills' most dangerous rusher. His rushing TD in Week 1 marked his sixth rushing touchdown in his last seven games.
18. Bills 1-0 Josh Allen threw two interceptions and lost two fumbles but righted himself just in time, hitting John Brown for a 38-yard touchdown with three minutes to play as the Bills rallied from 16 points down to win on the road against the Jets. The Bills will be back in East Rutherford, N.J., this week as they tangle with the Giants.
19. Buffalo (1-0) The Bills' defense was outstanding in a road victory over the Jets. Quarterback Josh Allen needs to play better in a road game against the Giants.
20. BILLS (1-0) The Bills were a mess for most of this game, but the Jets were more of a mess, especially late.
19. Buffalo Bills (1-0) The Bills are tied with the Patriots for first in the AFC East. They should keep a copy of this week’s standings, because that isn’t likely to last long.
18. Buffalo Bills (1-0) It was deja vu all over again for the Buffalo Bills in Week 1. Second-year quarterback Josh Allen turned in an uneven performance. Allen's completion percentage (64.9) was a welcome sight after he failed to complete 53 percent of his passes as a rookie. So was the game-winning dart to wide receiver John Brown, who finished with seven catches for 123 yards and a touchdown in his Bills debut. The four turnovers? Not so much. The Bills scored only three points through three quarters, but they averaged more than five yards per carry and surrendered less than 225 total yards. That allowed Allen to eke out a one-point win with a fourth-quarter surge. Run the ball, play defense, stay close and try to steal the game late. That's how the Bills were competitive over the second half of the 2018 season, and it's likely their best bet to be competitive this year as well.
24. BUFFALO BILLS The Josh Allen experience was in full display on Sunday. Allen produced -0.6 EPA per dropback on his first four drives and +0.3 EPA per play on the final seven drives, helping turn a 16-point deficit to the Jets into a 17-16 win. No. 9 pick Ed Oliver looked the part, playing 47 snaps, registering four hurries and one quarterback hit while producing the Bills’ highest defensive grade (80.3).

20 Buffalo Bills1-0 It rarely seems pretty with QB Josh Allen, but give him points for resilience after overcoming his four turnovers vs. Jets.

Yeah, same here. Frustrating to not be able to go back and listen to any postgame coverage other than the Overtime Show.

Okay, so let's look at the results from last year for the top 5 WRs and RBs by yardage...
Top Five WR's in Yards:
Julio Jones – 1677 Yards, 8 TDs, 113 Rec – Atlanta 7-9
DeAndre Hopkins – 1572 Yards, 11 TDs, 115 Rec – Houston 11-5 — LOST in the WILD CARD (like the Bills did last year)
Mike Evans – 1542 Yards, 8 TDs, 86 Rec – Tampa 5-11
Tyreek Hill – 1479 Yards, 12 TDs, 87 Rec – KC 12-4 – LOST in the AFC Championship to NE (who featured the 29th highest WR by Yards)
JuJu Smith-Schuster – 1426 Yards, 7 TDs, 111 Rec – Pitt 9-6-1
Top Five RB's in Yards:
Ezekiel Elliot – 1434 Yards, 6 TDs – Dallas 10-6 – LOST in the Divisional Rnd to LA Rams (featuring the 55th ranked RB CJ Anderson)
Saquon Barkley – 1307 Yards, 11 TDs – NYG 5-11
Todd Gurley – 1251 Yards, 17 TDs – LAR 13-3 — SUPERBOWL (Gurley rushed for 10 yards in the NFCC and 35 yards in the SB)
Joe Mixon – 1168 Yards, 8 TDs – CIN 6-10
Chris Carson – 1151 Yards, 9 TDsc – Seattle 10-6 LOST in the WILD CARD (like the Bills did last year)
So, what this all says to me is that having the best at one of these positions gives you a 50% chance of making the playoffs. And NOT having one of these guys gives you exactly a 50% chance as well. So me? I'd rather not pay the superstar premium. It might be fun, but it puts too many of your eggs in one basket.

And saddest part is, Nathan Peterman has scored the only two Bills' touchdowns in the last four weeks...

41 minutes ago, Coach Tuesday said:
No, I don't think that's the right way to look at this. The League is making a concerted effort to change the way the game is coached and played, and if they're successful, we'll look back at the pre-2000 era as a different game.
Except that is the point. The game changes. New fans will love it. Old fans will pine for the game they grew up with. I’m sure there were corner bars filled with guys complaining when the forward pass was introduced 1906...

For a little context, I went back and pulled predictions from last year... Not saying we're going to beat the world this year, but pointing out that McDermott's been underrated before...
2017 Season Predictions:
Sports Illustrated: 4-11-1
Prognosticators should run away from Buffalo’s dysfunction, not to it. With the Pegulas firing Doug Whaley, it’s apparently first-year coach Sean McDermott’s club for the time being. His move to take the pool tables out of the locker room sounds good until you realize the Falcons went to the Super Bowl with three ping-pong tables in their locker room last year. And the Bills don’t seem to like or appreciate their above-average quarterback. Prepare for a step back in 2017.
https://www.si.com/nfl/2017/05/08/buffalo-bills-2017-projected-record
ESPN: 6-10
The Buffalo Bills have avoided using the word "rebuilding" to describe their approach under first-year coach Sean McDermott. But are they contenders? That is a tough sell for a team that finished last season with a 7-9 record, fired coach Rex Ryan and lost starters (including cornerback Stephon Gilmore and wide receiver Robert Woods) on each side of the ball this offseason. As McDermott looks to build a foundation for future success, it is more likely than not that his team takes a step backward in 2017.

Buffalo Rumblings: 6-10, 8-8, 5-11, 5-11, 7-9, 9-7
Today the the Buffalo Bills begin their 2017 NFL season. Over the past month and a half, expectations have slowly crumbled for the season as the Bills appeared to take a long-term view of the roster and trade some of the biggest names.

Well, if all three QBs crap out next season, Nick Foles will be a free agent... Just sayin'.

Kind of a win/win. Dolphins win, you survive. Dolphins lose, well... Dolphins lose.
