I agree with this.

I couldn't agree more with this. We all knew or where at least hoping to keep it close enough until the end, which we did. It came down to one drive and one play. He made a good throw and a good decision, but Brown failed to create the separation needed. We know he needs to improve against cover0, but I also saw too many blitzers come right up the middle. That's suppose to be priority number one, to pick up the guy with the closest path to the qb. No chance when guys come in that quick.

Thanks! I don't know about Vinovich, but glad we didn't get Boger. His crews seems to be flag happy. Any idea about the broadcast team, maybe we can get Romo?

We all know he's taken a pretty good step this year, but all that matters is a W in the win column. Also he has an additional 7 tds on the ground. That's 20tds in 10 games. On pace for 32tds, not to shabby. That has to put him in the top 10 I'm guessing

I was a little worried about the whole 3-cone thing, until I started hearing that a lot of the bigger WR don't even attempt it, because of what happened to DK. Now, I really wanted DK, but not over Oliver. I mean, it was close, but I just thought that it was more important to get someone that could disrupt the pass game. That being said, I couldn't believe that we passed on him, and every other WR in the draft. There was a lot to chose from, and a lot of them are making a nice impact on their team (AJ Brown, DK, and Deebo) to name a few. DK's skill set was a perfect match for Josh Allen. ME RUN FAST...ME CATCH the ball. 7ft wing span with a 4.3 40. I would like to think that Josh would be letting go of those deep balls with a little more confidence, knowing that if he under throws it some, he has this massive WR that isn't going to get out-muscled for the ball. Right now DK is on pace for 952 yds, 8 TDS, and almost 60 catches. Good chance he ends up with a 1,000 yds receiving. This regime's ability to find receivers in the draft worry me. I heard on WGR this morning, that the Bills are the only team in the league to not have a single skill position player drafted in the 1st 2 rounds. Philly leads the league with 8. This was a problem on Sunday, and is a big problem with how Daboll runs his offense. His offense is based off of attacking mismatches. This only works, if you have the personal to do that. We obviously do not, at least not yet.

Exactly, not all interceptions are equal. If you have a guy deep and it's picked because of an under-throw, but it was the right call, it was at least a good decision, just a bad throw. Not the hero ball, across the field type of garbage. Coaches have to tell him that they are ok with that. Don't be afraid of a pick in that situation. The other thing I hate, and some of it is on Josh, but I think this falls on Daboll even more is that we love to run it up the middle for 2 yards on 2nd and short, and than take a deep shot on 3rd and short. They have those two things backwards. It drove me crazy yesterday, and we see it every-week.

Sorry if someone already made this point, but I'm at work and didn't have time to read through every post. Josh Allen is playing mistake free the last few games (bravo), but it's also severely hindering him. The clear reason for not being able to connect on a deep ball, is his fear of throwing an interception. As a result, the ball always ends up in no man's land. Not only can it not be picked, but also has no chance of our guys coming down with it. I mean, he hasn't even been close. It's grossly overthrown every-time. I've felt this way for weeks, but he just confirmed it in his post game presser. They asked him if he can pin-point the reason, for not being able to hit the deep ball, and he just said, I don't know, followed by.......I don't know if I'm super anxious about under-throwing it, and getting an interception. The coaches have him playing scared. This is a major detriment to his development. News flash.....we are not winning the Super Bowl this year, but we have this special talent, that we need to develop. Peyton threw 33 picks his rookie year. I'm sick of this ultra conservative approach. The only we we are beating the better teams in this league, is if Josh plays up to his potential, and that's not happening with the leash that they have on him. Let him go, and win or lose, live with the results. We'll be better in the long run for it.

Well said. I agree with 100% of what you said. I wonder how high he ranks in completing those 3rd and 15+ situations. He's done it so much, that I almost expect us to convert those. In years past, I was making a trip to the fridge or bathroom, knowing we would be punting.

I agree. Prior to the opener, I remember Sal saying that if Josh has the jump that Trubisky had in year 2, he would be very happy. That surprised me. I wanted no part in that comparison, no matter how good his stats looked. my mistake if it was.

Same here, I'm equally excited and at the same time nervous. The TENN game gives me hope.

I know everyone will laugh at Mitch Trubisky now, but a lot of people were praising Trubisky, after the year he had last year. I personally didn't see it. They were able to mask a lot of his inefficiencies, but whenever he needed to make a big play (critical 3rd down/end of game) type of throw, he was off the mark more often than not. Josh doesn't, and won't have the stats that Mitch had, but he passes the eyeball test. He couldn't be any more different. I'd like to hear all the self proclaimed experts, on how inaccurate Josh is. That argument is getting a lot tougher with each passing game. Will he make some boneheaded plays from time to time, absolutely. So will Drew Brees, and even the great Tom Brady. Time and experience is the only thing, that can reduce that frequency.

I 2nd that WD.

I think the point many of us are trying to make, is that when Allen has a bad game, or even makes a bad decision, it's magnified. Right now, it's all about how great the Pat's D is, with Allen, it's how horrible he was against them. And yes, Sam is having the worse game of the 2. 8-24 for 50yds, 4 picks, 1 fumble and 0 Tds. This is no longer a debate.

Yea, trying to make something out of nothing. You watching Darnold right now? 4 picks and counting

Up to this point, Darnold has looked worse. 6-13, 34yds, 2 picks and a fumble. Josh was trying to play too much hero ball. Sam looks more confused than Josh. Let's see how he comes out in the 2nd half.

Diggs is in the same tier as Amani Cooper, but Cooper is a little better. At the time that Dallas gave up a 1st for him, many thought they overpaid. Cooper's perceived value was a 2nd round pick. That being said, maybe he could be had for a 2020 2nd, and 2021 3rd. It might even take 2 2nd rounders. Given what he could do for our offense, I would go as high as 2 2nds for him. He would essentially be replacing Zay Jones on the outside. The guy is a play-maker, when the ball is in the air. Diggs, Beasley and Brown, would be an outstanding trio.

Bruce Smith or Eric Moulds

I also would like to add, no Devin Singletary. I know Gore ran great, but Singletary could of given the passing game a big boost. And who knows, maybe with him back there, Josh throws a couple early check downs to him, or a screen or 2, and it totally changes the tempo of the game. I know a lot of what if's, but there's a lot of good young talent to be excited about. No team has a perfect draft, but so far, it looks like Beane hit it out of the park. Oliver, Metcalf (over Ford) in the 2nd, the rest of the draft the same.

Good point. BB has made a living on making good to great QB's look bad against his defense. This could pay off in the long run for Allen, but too early to tell. They thought that he would take the bait, and he certainly did. My expectations are actually still up for this year. I think the Defense is even better than I expected, and I already had high hopes. I think we go 10-6 this year, and maybe even win a Playoff game. By next year, with another strong draft, we overtake the PATS. The gap is smaller than I thought. People already forget how bad we were last year, and how far we've come in just 1 year. The 3-0 start, made people go crazy with their expectations. We're still very much on track. We have a very young team, and if they continue to grow as they are, I can see us beating them in Foxboro come week 16. Before I thought there was no way, but not anymore.

I was too emotional to feel this way yesterday, but today I feel like I can view things with a clear head. Going into Sundays game, I gave the Bills a 10% chance to win, given our history against the Pat's. But now I know we can hang with the big boys. In the past, it would take a nearly perfect game to have a chance. We played like trash, and still had a chance to win on the last possession. Please tell me, when was the last time that happened. In years past, that would've been a 56-10 blowout. Rodney Harrison on PFT took notice. Says that he expects them to be very good for a long time. Worth a listen

I'm sure we would of deferred, if we won the toss. Which gives us choice on field if we lost the coin toss.

Hands down, the best corner in the league. Jax problems have everything to do with poor QB play and bad coaching, and little to do with Ramsey. Yes, he's a big trash talker, but backs it up. I don't understand why people here take it personal.

Fantastic! Thank you OP. So refreshing to hear.

I hear you on the blowouts, but if I'm not mistaken Peterman was a part of most of them. I know Josh was a part of the GB, and the Patriots game. I don't remember who started against the Colts, but they Mauled us.

DK or Hakeem Butler. Playmaker/mismatch nightmares. Than try and go after Sternberger. It's a lot more affordable to go after guys now. Indy moved down from 26th overall to 46th overall, for a 2nd next year.
