  1. Here is what I thought about today while watching Baltimore vs. Cleveland.  Based on the succcess of Baltimore’s offense, do you think a QB needy team will sign Tyrod Taylor and try to have him run a run-heavy, college style offense that takes advantage of his mobility and downplays throwing from the pocket?  

     

    The NFL is a league copycats and whether it’s the read-option or wildcat, teams will copy whatever has been successful.  

     

    It really makes me wonder if we’ll see this in 2019.

    I'd like to see a ranking of the offensive lines for these teams. Browns looked ok, Baltimore was solid, Bills were awful, Cards were god awful, and I think maybe the Jets were just ok. Seems to be about how the stats broke down for the QBs. Mayfield looks much better than the rest as far as consistency, but after that it gets harder to separate them with overall team play. 

     

    Very good observation

  3. Wow Jamal Adams is a helluva interview.  In this clip below, he indirectly takes a shot at Mike McCagnon by saying that the Jets talent roster isn’t good enough and that they don’t have enough “dogs.”  I’m not quite sure that means.

     

    He then says the Jets have $100M in cap room and that “it will come.”  When a reporter asks if the Jets should be a playoff team when they get the “dogs,” his reaction is hilarious as he gestures and says “I can pray.”  LOL.  

     

    He ends by defending Todd Bowles and blames the issues on the players - again somewhat of a knock to McCagnon.

  4. There have been many great DT’s in Bills history but I think that Kyle, perhaps, was one of the best when you take into account his success, production, longetivity and meaning to the Bills franchise.

     

    Take a look at these numbers:

     

    13 years, 5 Pro Bowls, 48.5 sacks

     

    A few others worth considering for their time in Buffalo :

     

    Fred Smerlas

    10 years, 1 All Pro, 4 Pro Bowls (16.5 sacks)

     

    Ted Washington

    5 years, 3 Pro Bowls, (19.5 sacks)

     

    Pat Williams

    8 years, 0 Pro Bowls, (12.5 sacks)

     

    Marcel Darius 

    7 years, 1 All Pro, 1 Pro Bowl (35.5 sacks)

     

    Jeff Wright:

    ok so this was a joke.

     

    But what are your thoughts?  I say Kyle is the best

    This isn't updated for this week yet. They've only graded 7 of today's games, and haven't graded Baker, Lamar, or Rosen yet. I assume it'll be the same order still but I'd guess the gap between Baker and Allen will be a little larger than that.

     

     

    Before the season, I had them ranked, in terms of being ready to play this year:

     

    1. Baker

    2. Lamar

    3. Rosen

    4. Allen

    5. Darnold

     

    In terms of overall rankings, I had it:

    1. Lamar

    2. Darnold

    3. Allen

    4. Baker

    5. Rosen

     

    After seeing them all play this year, I'd probably go:

    1A. Baker

    1B. Lamar

    3. Allen

    4. Darnold

    5. Rosen

     

    I don’t get the love for Lamar

    I don't understand the Jackson hype. Tyrod 2.0. Extremely limited in pass game

     

    Me either.... how long do you think he’ll last running the ball 20 times again.  Their offense is a fad and won’t last.

     

    I think Baker is going to go down as one of the greats and is far and away the best in the class.

     

    The rest are way behind but I’d go:

     

    Mayfield

    Allen/Darnold (tie)

    Jackson

    Rosen

    I truly don’t understand the people that say Mayfield is as good as he’s going to get.

     

    Same.  He is going to have an awesome career

  7. I have a good friend from MN.  Huge Viking fan.  Yes the defense slipped a bit but overall was good enough.

     

    The biggest problem was the offensive line.  They were atrocious.  Could generate no running game which put more pressure on the passing game.  Problem was Cousins was terrorized back there, like we saw in Buffalo.

     

    Still he threw for 30 TD’s.  He tells me, they’ll be fine once they improve the line

    wowsers guys gonna coach the entire division  Could Miami's owners be that stupid?

     

    There is no possible way that he gets the Dolphins job.  I would love it though because it would make the games all the more fun.  

     

    I wonder if Rob, Dennis Thurman, and Tony Sprano Jr are on his list!  LOL

    Not looking so good for the other Miami coach either

    No it was on tv. And im in syracuse. Didnt have satellite. It was an abc game if im remembering right

     

    Thats why you saw it.  The game was on in the Syracuse market which is outside the

    blackout radius.   I remember some friends who would drive down to watch the blacked out games at his brother’s place in DeWitt.  

     

    It was blacked out in Buffalo, which is why I had to scramble to find a bar that was showing it.

    Bills-Jags blacked out. The Bills announced that Sunday's Play-Off game against the Jaguars has been blacked out for local TV. The game did not sell out 72 hours prior to kickoff (Sunday 1 pm) so the game will not be broadcast on TV in the Buffalo or Rochester viewing areas. (Buffalo News)

     

    ** Note:  The Actual attendance was a little over 70,00 in an 80, 000  seat Rich Stadium

     

    Thank you.  I knew it definitely was blacked out because I remember frantically trying to find a hookup that would show the game.

    I dont think it was blacked out on tv. I vividly remember watching this game as a kid. The ebbs and flows were crazy. Couldnt seem to catch a break. Jax kicker bounced one off the post and went in too. i was heartbroken.

    The 98 jags flutie game was blacked out though

     

    Nope... it definitely was blacked out.  You either had a satellite dish that could get the Syracuse broadcast or the broadcast on another station

    The comeback game against Houston was the playoff blackout

     

     

     

    So was this playoff game in 96

    Yeah.  Neither were ruined but I'd consider Bradford a disappointment as the first pick in the draft.  Alex Smith has had an okay career after a slow start before having the fortune of playing for Harbaugh and then Reid.  Never made a Superbowl though and was eventually replaced by two younger QB's (Kaepernick, Mahomes).

     

    Fair enough, I just wouldn’t say either of them were “ruined” by any means.  I’m sure there are better examples of QB’s who have achieved less

  12. 22 minutes ago, Mister Defense said:

    No,  he was just never given a chance here and then became a backup for a decade.  I will say it again--the release of Collins was the biggest mistake I have seen in my lifetime by the Bills, started a loong period of wasted draft picks, wasted millions, turnover, and losing seasons.  He was  likely better than all of the quarterbacks since Kelly, until Allen. 

     

    For me, what happened to Todd Collins here was an integral part of the Bills long collapse, always searching for the quarterback that never came..

     

    You know, I was just thinking about this.  They did pull the plug awfully fast on Todd.  He was a fairly high draft pick and had 2 years sitting on the bench under Kelly.  When he started in 1997, he certainly wasn’t great but his numbers were essentially on par with most rookie QB’s.   He led the Bills to a 5-8 record in 13 games which wasn’t great but can hardly be considered a disaster

     

    Despite this, the same team that drafted him 2nd overall gave up on him after just 13 games as starter.  They went all out to secure their “franchise” QB in Rob Johnson and even signed a Plan B/backup in Doug Flutie.

     

    Collins probably deserved a little more time, or at least the opportunity to compete in 1998.  Again, I’m not saying he was a great QB but he was essentially replaced after just 13 games.  Maybe they thought he should have been further along in his 3rd year.  I don’t know

     

    Watch some of these passes, he doesn’t seem to be too bad
