  1. Defense is an absolute fraud
  2. Dude. Have you not watched all year. We don't play well against the good teams.
  3. Not sure if Ford left early or Morse snapped late
  4. Have to prove today those were the exceptions and not the norm.
  5. Huh? When has he ever done that? They need him to play today. That said I'm fine with Sanders in the slot and Davis outside
  6. Anything less than 3-1 and they will be lucky to be a WC.
  7. Do the right thing and build a dome downtown.
  8. I don't think there was and it was one of those plays where it looked worse than it was. Also it was a play where the defender had already determined where he was going to make the hit and Knox had to reach backwards for the ball. Hard to say there was real intent there. I'm surprised it generated a fine. I understand the need to protect players and I am not one of those guys that thinks the golden era of football was when you could decapitate someone. However I really think they need to review these plays more closely. It's pretty common where the offensive player changes the strike zone at the last second. Yes it ends up a bad hit but it's not the defender's fault. It's fairly easy to see by replay if the defender's angle of attack would have been fine except for the WR or RB has now changed position.
  9. Sanders. Bills D is not going to hold up to this o-line and rushing attack. Bills will need to score 30 to win. Diggs will get his receptions but Sanders will get two scores.
  10. I hope St. Louis sees this through to the end. Communities need more power over these franchises.
  11. Same here. Generational pass rusher and we trade up for a WR in the most loaded WR draft ever
  12. Watch Quenton Nelson blow apart our DL Sunday and you will think differently
  13. Yeah the coaches will never admit it but if Zimmer was healthy its unlikely Phillips would have dressed many more games this season. Maybe Tenn, Pats, and Indy who are run heavy but even then it would have been less likely
  14. Draft OL C/G in the first round. Safety in the second. 1 tech DT in the third. Bring back Edmunds but don't sign an extension Sign Juju Smith-Schuster in FA.
  15. I will take the click bait. The only thing it proved was McD can keep the distractions from affecting the players and he can get the team to regroup. Kudos to him. Really nice job. The real proof will be this weekend. Home AFC game against a good but not great opponent. Its a must win if they want to still get the #1 seed. A win keeps them on track. A loss and there is nothing to refute the narrative that the Bills can't beat the good teams. #1 defense needs a better showing than they had at Tennessee.
  16. I agree he is top 3 talent behind Reed and Moulds. But just as you discounted Lofton, Diggs has 5 years with Minnesota and 1 and a half with Buffalo. Reed was never best WR in the game becuase of Jerry Rice. He was in the conversation for second best frequently with guys like Tim Brown, Michael Irvin, and others. Hopkins, Adams, and Hill are great but still not in the class of Rice. Diggs will need 2 or 3 more seasons to surpass Moulds and 5+ to move past Reed. Knox is already the best physical talent to play the position in Bills franchise history. Agree 2 more healthy seasons and he will be the best ever, even if he will live in the shadows of Kelce and Kittle.
  17. Recency bias.... While the safeties probably merit being in the conversation as will Allen and Diggs in a year or two, the rest have a lot of historical competition. There have been some very good LT's that played in Buffalo. I'm not convinced Dawkins is in the top 7 let alone top 2 or 3. Right now he is below John Fina and maybe on par with Cordy Glenn. As for Edmunds my opinion on him is well documented. Can he develop into a top 5 all time MLB for Buffalo. Maybe. But he has a long way to go. I don't even like Talley that much and I'd still take him over Milano. Bass is kicking lights out. And he doesn't have much competition. Christe was probably the best kicker Bills have had and Bass is more accurate and even a stronger leg. Let's hope he keeps it up.
  18. If I'm doing my math correctly, Shady put up seasons of 1267 (5.4 YPR) and 1138 (4.0 YPR) yards rushing well after he passed 1800 carries. He hit the wall more around 2100 rushes.
  19. I'm over Moss (didn't like the draft pick much in the first place). Moss breaks tackles but he is too slow to the hole. He is an effort guy that doesn't have the NFL skills needed to be consistently good. Give Singletary five more carries a game and give the rest to Brieda. Moss should not touch the ball until the fourth quarter when the defense is tired and we need to grind out some first downs to burn clock.
  20. I can't recall for sure and I'm too lazy to look it up, but I think I had Wildgoose making the final 53. I had him over Taiwan Jones or maybe Gilliam. I would still choose that today. I would much rather have a developmental CB or safety playing special teams than a 4th or 5th RB. Consider the blowout this past week. He could have gotten some low pressure real game reps at CB or safety. Wish him well.
  21. Situation specific, yes. Taron is great in coverage and Edmunds is at his best dropping deep middle. In the 4-3 they are best if they play Klein at MLB and Edmunds outside. They did this a little last year down the stretch when Klein was playing so well. They also played Klein outside and Edmunds at middle too. I think Klein is a liability at OLB but holds his own quite nicely in the middle.
