Mason Crosby has been an institution in GB before yesterday, so that was the most surprising IMO. 80.3 FG % going into this 2018 season.

That's news to the "fire everyone in the FO" crowd at TBD

Thanks for clarifying that--don't gamble so uncharted territory for me

Just wondering what your Allen “hot take” was right after he eviscerated the Vikes’ D and flipped the script on what was supposed to be a 16.5 spread Minnie victory? That virtually no one here saw coming? How many threads did you post in before that came discussing what the body count would be and how pathetic Allen would show out that day? How to account for such a blip in the narrative that he’s a bust? Let me address the argument before it’s made—Minnie decided to lay down, right? Came out flat? Zimmer himself made it crystal clear that they got their ***es kicked by the Bills, plain and simple, and had nothing to do with Minnie’s own prep or lack of it. Mark my words, that won’t be the only time this year. Today was a different game plan from Daboll where Allen wasn’t asked to beat the world himself, but he did make the critical plays when he absolutely had to. He’s got ice water in his veins and plays with passion. Don’t remember EJ ever putting his limbs on the line running track out there like this kid does to fire up his team. Go Bills!!!

And had already been around the block in the NFL many years, and sat/absorbed game behind Flacco, and started multiple seasons for the Bills, that’s why his ceiling was so obvious

Oh I totally agree with you on that. Let the court of public opinion figure it out, this isn’t USSR circa 1951. Dude’s entitled to spout off if he feels he must

Your civility is a breath of fresh air amongst a lot of the “hot takes” around here. Thanks

I don’t disagree with your take on dissent—you have a right to your opinion. But don’t be surprised if it gets deconstructed by a lot of others on TBD because the fact is your sample size is way too small, and there is too much in the way of good signs along the way to support your ultimate conclusion. It’s a mixed bag, and that is exactly what a lot of us felt like would happen, especially when he wasn’t even supposed to start this early this year. I’m not anywhere close to burning his jersey, and I hope for your sake of fan enjoyment that you can enjoy the good along the way as it comes too.

Appears to be more durable that way than TT, and definitely forces D coordinators to account for it, possibly opening up some of the tight coverages downfield, but at the end of the day needs to be a tool in the toolbox, not the main event obviously.

When on earth are the Bills going to get some respect from Vegas? Not that I care really, but it surprises me that their wins haven’t gotten them any after being dogs each time

^^^^^This. And glad you mentioned the Mahomes thread...the OP probably blames Beane for that too, even though he wasn’t here for the 2017 draft.

When you have to go take care of business yourself...

Never bet against the Bills when the entire planet lines up to take their smart money shot...or 5K

This is how Super Bowl XXV was supposed to end...?

Is that the same as the FO sucks and MCD is idiot of the year crowd? Just trying to keep my negative Nancy categories straight up in here...

Definitely still room for improvement. Captain Obvious out.

Is it just me or is our D finally developing an in your face personality? Getting after it even after JA threw a pick and holding them to a FG was the ballgame before the ballgame with House $$

And that’s 2 quality wins right there against top notch defenses coming in! Blow up those survivor pools all over again!!!

What final game winning drive for this guy

Wait, so JA doesn’t necessarily have to do it all in order for us to win some this year???

YEESSSSS!!!!!!!!!

Or just down to #3 each week given the real risk that both in front get knocked out of a game along the way

He was one of the names bandied about early in the Peterman implosion to be brought in, and makes perfect sense—love it if true

Would even the “GOAT” hoodie savant’s swings and misses along the way disqualify him in your book then? https://www.thesportster.com/football/questionable-moves-the-patriots-have-made-in-the-brady-belichick-era/ you can’t expect every single move to pan out. Also, these moves aren’t done in a vacuum. Scouting dept, GM takes?

Did anyone happen to grab a screenshot of all the “expert” predictions going into the Minnie game? Worthless waste of time as most of them follow a herd mentality parroting each other’s talking points without doing any original research...and why would they? Too many national themes going on with bigger nfl markets than ours to focus on. Go Bills!!! 24–13 Buffalo.
