  1. Honest question. Which elite rb did we pass on?
  2. In the stadium it looked like the coaching staff was pointing him out to officials and then Adams gestured angrily to the Bills sideline. He threw his helmet before going into the tent. They never showed the hit on the stadium replay.
  3. In the stadium it looked like Harris never touched the ground on his run to the goal line. Looked like the ball should have been spotted inside the 1. However they spotted it almost a yard back. I know in the whole scheme of things it doesn't matter much, but I thought McDermott should have challenged that instead of using last time out. The spot effectively took out a QB sneak as an option. What did they say or see on TV?
  4. Need a bigger sample size but he played well yesterday. He had a couple run stuffs that were excellent. I'm still worried about his size. Maybe this is just the future of MLB.
  5. Pretty sure they did some of that last year. Ilike the idea. Pretty soon he just needs to win more 1:1 battles
  6. Allen was a surgical assassin today. By all accounts those same underneath throws were there last week. This was Allen playing better and Dorsey calling more run plays. Love it! When Allen still needed to be a superstar he made those plays as well. On to Washington!
  7. My thought too. He could have trucked that guy
  8. Great day for the TBD whipping boys. Bernard looked like a NFL player. Showed some nice instincts against the run. Dare I say better than any Edmunds game vs the run. Then there is Davis. He was great today. He made two amazing catches up and away from his body. Made the easier ones too. He might not be 100% on targets but the ball Allen threw back across the field had chance to be caught. Cook went over 100 and poundedthe rock while showing elite speedtpthe corner. Dorsey designed a great game plan to attack Vegas who played 2 deep safety almost the entire game. OL held up well.Thought pass blocking was very good. They got to Josh a couple times on blitzes but otherwise the OL was solid. Dawkins looked especially good today. Hell even Epenesa made a play. Lastly, how about my boy Allen? He took a lot of flack on this board last week and justifiably so. He came back this week and played nearly flawlessly. Six more to go to get to 7-1.‐
  9. I've given Bernard a lot of crap. But he played a very good game today.
  10. On Monday everyone remember that one of the targets to Davis was uncatchable. That's franchise QB play and throw!!!!
  11. Don't understand why Josh is not understand center on that 4th down. Even if you want to throw it is better to play action from under center. Really poor job Dorsey
  12. Davis, Bernard, Epenesa, Oliver, and Knox making plays. ..This board is going to melt down
  13. I will be there! Section 207! Go Bills!!!
  14. As with all things in life a little context helps. Newcam you lack any nuance in your post. 4 targets for a rookie TE is actually a decent amount. TE's take a while to develop. Now I've said all off-season he is a pass catcher not a TE. Even there, 4 targets for a rookie pass catcher on a team with a superstar WR and solid other options is pretty good. So yes there is something to be encouraged about that performance. For reference, Kelce missed his entire rookie year. In his first game of the second year he caught 3 of 5 targets for 49 yards. Kittle first game 5 rec on 6 targets for 27 yards. Gronk 1 rec on 1 target for 1 yard. Hockenson is the outlier catching 6 balls for 131 yards and TD. The next two games though he would combine for 2 catches for 8 yards. So 4-4 for 26 in his first game is just fine.
  15. First of seven in a row! Now bench Bernard and start playing Kirksey
  16. I have no problem with designed QB runs. They are highly effective. No issue if they call them. Many times they result in a TD. Just be smart at the end of any run be it by design or a scramble. Get down or go out of bounds. Learn to live and come back next down. Josh has had two elbow injuries and both were in the pocket. Not running is not the correct answer. Running smart and not stupid is the right answer.
  17. Fair criticism of the route but someone else in another thread said Knox and Kincaid ran it virtually the same way. So maybe coaching. Maybe it just needs to be a ball that goes to the sideline. You saw the fumble as I did as well. He was looking to his right. So either he was not prepared or the snap was early. They won't let us know. Regardless he collected himself but failed to secure the ball well enough. He has got to learn to give up on certain plays and just move to the next down. A 1 yard gain is no different than a 1 yard loss on first down.
  18. 100% agree!!!!! McD messed up the TO situation. If Jets get another first down game is over no matter when you use the timeouts. So use them before 2 min warning giving you more time to score.
  19. What were the two missed targets to Davis? If one was the INT how is that his fault? The safety caught it before it got to him. It was a bad throw that should have been closer to the sideline. I dont recall the other missed target. Certainly don't recall him dropping a pass.
  20. White on white with standing red Buffalo is still the best look
  21. He took a shot in the first half that he looked odd after getting up. I thought oh dam they may pull him from this game.
  22. Bills sort of did it in the past. They had two back to back west coast games and stayed on the west coast instead of traveling back. Don't recall them leaving early for a west coast game though. The track record of west coast teams traveling east and playing at 1pm is not in their favor. Interesting because I thought Vegas was only two hours behind, whereas West Virginia is several decades behind....
  23. Agree. I should have said weeks. Knowing this staff they will give him time. At least they have another option. Not the case for either OT spot
  24. Bills are a great team that faced a great defense with bad Josh Allen. He will play better. Bills will be fine. Pass rush looked good. Corners looked good. Oline was spotty but there were signs of better things to come with Torrence. Diggs is a star. Kincaid looks the part of a weapon. McD is still a liability. Deep playoff run is still my prediction
