Agree, unless they get healthy and that makes a big difference and gets them on a roll. I could see Bills losing the next two games, but going 4-2 after the bye given the schedule (S.Fran looks beat up, Phins, Pats, Broncos, Chargers they will compete straight up or better with). Obviously, somehow getting past Seattle puts them back on the map, but that game looks like a bad bet with a bunch of guys playing in shoulder slings. Teams have decided to play 2 deep zone to neutralize both the crossing routes and Josh's running; so the willing will be ugly (run game, underneath zone passing, etc) , so all the exciting offense of the first month is likely reduced, making them less media-interesting even if they do win.

Hopefully, some guys are getting healthy. If Brown, Milano , Edmunds, Hyde, Morse , etc etc. are still walking wounded for the next 2 weeks, a split of the next two games would be an amazing achievement. This team needs the bye like no one else.. The injuries have hit exactly where the team is thin (eg. LB) so the bye could not come at a better time. Next man up is garbage in today's NFL. You get a bunch of key injuries , you are largely screwed if you are playing top 10 teams. No way they get past Seattle/RWilson unless they are healthier than I think they are. Don't know much about Az. My guess is the media ignores until December at the earliest.

was a short field turnover game I believe... I would need to know average drive start, etc.

Hell, we could have a half dozen starters out by then as well... relax whiners, one week at a time

and I usually don't drink that heavily in the morning... hmm.. pandemic has finally gotten to me

He was actually pretty good until that scramble/knee injury in that Browns (?) Thursday nighter. He was never the same after that for some reason.

6 - 2 . nuf said

great point. I forgot that concussions are a big part of his career... wow.. interesting situation...

Dodsons' on IR, Milano can't punch, Hyde is out; Edmunds calls the damn defense; what do you suggest, Einstein? They stuffed the Pats run pretty much all game. I get that it's a fan board, but geez, what a bunch of whiners with a 6-2 team, 4-0 in the division. geez.

I solid 1 Tech would be the need at this point. They are rare. The good ones. You will pay dearly for them, and then Star comes back next year. interesting problem for Beane to solve. I think he will.

Bills don't play a MLB. sigh. Milano is obviously being worked back in on passing downs when he doesn't need to take on 330lb guards. He'll be back playing every down soon enough.

Yeah, we'll see most of the roster on the field for the first time in awhile today. Should be a messy, wet windy, low scoring game. Just go find a way to win. Pats are better than the Jets team they had to come back to beat last week, so nothing is solid this week.

Coming out of an NFL strength and conditioning program, he'll be bigger and stronger next year. You'll see. I'm not concerned at all. Good pick.

there will be multiple restructurings for next year, due to the cap being significantly lower than this year. Hydes will simply be one of them. I want a run for a SB next year. Hyde is part of that.

home divisional game. SBs rarely won by team that does not win its division. divisional W/L record is a big deal in doing so. conference W/L record matters as well, (i think?) wether its Jets, Phins, Pats, that makes it big. go win.

Seattle/Arizona won't be able to pound the run like titans and chiefs did. So I see the Bills competitive in both, especially as they get healthy. So every game will be winnable once they get healthy.

suck it up. no worries... Star will be back next year, probably heavier (LOL)

refs gave us the Rams game, so no complaints from me

nah, the fan base is cool. they ID with team just like a college town. kinda cool really. when its good, its really good. the "process" drives people nuts, but building a long term program is what college HCs try to do, so it all fits. be good every year, get a little better every year... "build the program" is what McBeanes are doing. no going after shiny objects... you can see them hanging onto next years draft picks, they want them all .. I think it is great. build the program, keep building, and the wins will take care of themselves... go bills

when the D is in zone, of course. Beasley is more important if teams go cover 2 zone a lot, which they are now doing. If they play man, the diggs / davis crossers and josh running become more important... all depends on what the D is doing.

Looked like that to me as well. Two different halves completely.

Stop now please. You overestimate this roster. But they problem solved at halftime, switched to the run and added pitch and pass and started bringing 5 and 6 on D and crunched them in the 2nd half. No NFL team is trash. Anyone can beat anyone every week. W/L records tell only a piece of the story. Bills should have lost to the Rams, everyone with a brain knows that. If not for Josh Normans strip, they could have very easily lost the Raiders game. What about the Phins game, who was trash in that game prior to Davis' miracle catch? Jets got a bunch of talented guys back for this game and they made a difference. Don't underestimate any opponent from week to week. Every week stands on its own and records don't mean much any given week. As BB says, you are what your record says you are. Bills are 5-2. Works for me.

yep they are totally zoning him now to take away both 1) his scrambles and 2) all the crossing routes. the Raiders were so dumb to play man and they shredded them with the crossing routes -- that is all gone now. He is adapting. RPO and zone read IS a fundamental part of the Bills (and Ravens) offense. Is what it is. I like it. Josh is a part of the Bills run game . they tried to get LeVeon Bell, didn't work. Beane is trying.
