Ethan in Cleveland

Good post Are you going to the Jets game or staying home

It took 16 weeks to get Bates in the starting lineup and the same time to get McKenzie in the passing game. Davis is still fighting for snaps with Sanders. I like Moss pass blocking and catching out of the backfield. I really think he is excellent used in that way. I've been consistent in my complaints of having Jones on the roster for just STs. It would be interesting to see Williams get a few snaps in a meaningful game. I would have never kept Jones nor Gilliam. I would have had Singletary, Moss, Brieda, and Williams my four backs all year with Williams taking a few snaps at FB when needed.

If not Buffalo, then I would like to see Green Bay win another championship.

The same thing we did for 17 years. How do we find a franchise QB? Nobody talked about the weather because we were too busy discussing the lack of talent at the QB position and draft prospects at the end of the season. Now that the Bills have a QB you can talk about all other aspects of the game

I was at the Bills Raiders playoff game - coldest in franchise history. I was also at the Bills Arizona Cardinals game that was hit with insane winds. Those were the two worst home weather games I can recall until this year's New England home game. Bills Colts with Peterman at QB, KB at WR, and Shady scoring in OT has to be up there as well.

Jackson is a good to great QB. Baker is at best good. That said I would not sign either to an extension. They already have the 5th year guaranteed and they can franchise them if need be. Do exactly what Dallas did with Dak. The cap is going up and there will be room to carry a QB on a tag for at least a year. That gives both teams two more years to figure it out. I expect Cleveland will figure Mayfield is not good enough and will move on after 2022. However his shoulder injury this year could explain some of his bad play. Allen had a few bad games with an injured non throwing shoulder and that did not require surgery. So if Mayfield is just average next year they can decide he is not worth a huge contract and save those dollars for the other first round picks on that team. Then maybe they make a trade for a veteran QB.

Mayfield probably won’t play either. As of late that is probably a good thing with how poorly he has played. I’m too lazy to bother to look up who the backup QBs are for both those teams

To beat all 32 he would have to beat the Bills as an opponent. Hope that never happens. Still having nightmares seeing Thurman Thomas in a Dolphins uniform....

It was so painful but yet so odd. About every 15 or so plays he would say something that was very technical and was really insightful. But the other 14 plays were complete nonsense, entirely inaccurate, or just jibberish.

is that really true?

That is a sweet schedule for me. Both my boys are in college in Chicago. I would rather see the Rams new stadium than Arizona (been there twice already plus a few more times in SunDevil stadium). Could Bills Lions be Thanksgiving game again?

First I dont believe you need to build a team for bad weather. Brady and Rodgers never had great power run games playing in New England and GB. However that said, Its not as if he hasn't tried. Moss is a power runner. He drafted Ford. He extended Williams and drafted Brown. Morse is the only lineman that is much better in pass protection than run blocking. Dawkins is adequate in both. Feliciano is better at run blocking. Hell you can go back to letting go of Spain, who was an elite pass blocker but did nothing in the run game.

What/when was his injury? I missed him coming out of the game?

100% agree

Yes and no. 6th year since college. According to the stats I saw he was not on a roster or maybe he was injured or on PS with Denver for only 1 game in 2018.

Thats QBR I think if they needed to pass more in the second half he would have and his passer rating would have climbed. It was good to see the rushing TDs late in the game but those could have also been pasing TDs if Daboll wanted. Sorry but there was no excuse on the red zone pick. It was a bad decision. Agree on the OP comments on #2 wit hehe added caveat that Beasley was held 10 yards downfield and #3.

McKenzie has been in the league for 6 years. So your first point doesn't make any sense. Of course I don't think Allen should be benched. My point is it is stupid to bench a RB or a KR for a muff or a fumble to send a message, just as you wouldn't bench Allen to send a message. If they are the most qualified to do the job let them do it.

They have the better coach. Bills have the better QB. If Allen doesn't turn the ball over Bills should win

Time to sit Stephenson. He shouldnt even dress if all the WRs are healthy. I would rather dress an extra lineman or Breida in the playoffs. Hyde can catch punts if needed. Anyone can return kickoffs as badly as Stephenson was yesterday Wakeup calls are for HS. Not professionals. Did McD bench Allen for his three picks yesterday???

Have you been to Kansas City in January? Its colder than Buffalo. Tennessee is no guarantee to be any better. That said home field advantage in the playoffs doesn't seem as important as it once was. Tampa won NFC in Green Bay last year. Countless examples of road teams winning. Trust in Allen, he is our only hope

People forget the Bills 49ers no punt game was not all offense. Both Bills and the 49ers turned the ball over 3 times each. Kelly and Young each through an interception and there were four fumbles lost in the game - two by each team. Seriously how many times do you see four fumbles lost in one game?

I was in another room listening to the broadcast. Turico made it seem the Bills Jets would be played at 4 PM not 1PM EST. Anyone know? Bills schedule says 1PM

This 100%

Yup. Diggs throw should have been a TD and Beasley got mugged downfield. Terrible missed call. The redzone pick was inexcusable. Just throw it away. Im not convinced he was even trying to throw it to Diggs in the back of the endzone. Looked like he just threw it up to Beasley in a crowd. Just can't happen.

You have to know White and Dawkins were not Beane picks. Beane signed the extensions.
