  1. Feel bad for White. He looked competent.
  2. He has been very good but c/w the stats he has disappeared for games. That may be the rotation, the fact he is a rookie, or just randomness. Hopefully he keeps it up and the rotation keeps him fresh beyond the rookie wall.
  3. Have fun. I'm going to NYC and Jets next week
  4. Threads like these tempt the fates. I would caution all not to mess with the football gods.
  5. I am sticking with Oliver. 4 tackles, 2 TFL, 1 QB sack, and 1 FF that will set up a short filed early
  6. I looked it up before posting. My impression was that Hughes seems to convert a significant number of his sacks into fumbles. Now I just have totals so I can't say which fumbles were strip sacks and which were not. But look at these numbers below. When Hughes does get home he makes a differnce. TJ Watt is just incredible... Hughes 15 Forced fumbles on 57 sacks 26% JJ Watt 26 FF on 102 sacks 22% Myles Garrett 10 FF on 53 sacks 19% Nick Bosa 3 FF on 16 sacks 19% Joey Bosa 8 FF on 51 sacks 16% Josh Allen 2 FF on 17.5 sacks 11% TJ Watt 20 FF on 58 sacks 35%

  8. It will happen sometime. Don't you kind of want it to happen now as opposed to the playoffs? Just get the monkey off your back so he doesn't get jinxed by the announcers in the playoffs. Can't you just imagine Al Michaels in the SB saying "Here we go. 3rd and goal to win it. Allen has never thrown a red zone INT. Lets see what he does here?
  9. What the hell happened in Tennessee then? I do think the run defense is better as many of us predicted with Star coming back. It will be interesting to see if Phillips keeps his game day spot or if they go back to Zimmer when he is healthy
  10. Interesting because all but one of his Major wins occurred with him in the lead after the third round.
  11. Worst QB in NFL history has a job for four years and Colin Kaepernick couldn’t find a job during the same time. Beane assembled that non-competitive offensive line Allen saved both their careers and will likely get Daboll a HC job
  12. Lol. How easily people forget McD started this guy more than once I flew down for my birthday for that game. Left at halftime and threw my Bills hat in the trash. Did see Hamilton the night before though. Eugene Levy and Martin Short were in the audience too
  13. No Bills Tight end has ever been selected to a Pro Bowl. I can’t find any evidence of a Bills TE playing as an alternate either. It’s collectively the worst position in franchise history. Knox was in the running this year and still maybe even with Kelce in the conference
  14. Phillips and a 3rd would probably be better from a cap standpoint. I'm just guessing but the dead cap hit would be more even with Butler's reduced salary this year.
  15. I said that two weeks ago in the hypothetical trade thread. Would upgrade edge blocking and would only cost a 7th round pick - hell maybe even less like swapping a 6th for a 7th
  16. Never thought much of Ingram as a pass rusher. Ok they passed on him
  17. End the thread. This post sums it up
  18. I wish I had time and knew more about O-line play because there was a distinct difference in performance between first and second half. The play calls seemed similar yet both the run and pass blocking were better. Maybe they just played better or maybe it was a scheme change. Either way nice adjustment. Refs missed calls both ways. They missed Pass Interference on White and they called hands to the face on their d-lineman when he was lifting shoulder pad not helmet. The punter is a problem. He's not good at anything. He doesn't have a strong leg, shanks as many as Bojo did, and he hasn't bee that good at pinning teams deep. Bad signing so far. Hughes was a beast. Oliver had one of his best games. Allen was great at times but still missed Sanders deep with a ball with no arc. All QBs miss from time to time and Allen has shown more deep ball accuracy this year. You just wish he would consistently put some air under the ball and let our WRs make a play. Nitpicking I know but that was another missed TD. One more thing. Lofton kept saying they were playing zero coverage with no safety. To me that is when you play man coverage and blitz your safety. Looked to me they were playing four quarters with four DBs lined up about 12 yards off the LOS. What did others see?
  19. I'd worry about the following in no particular order 1. Rams 2. Dallas 3. Green Bay 4. KC 5. Tampa 6. Cardinals 7. Baltimore 8. Pittsburgh Any of these teams can beat the Bills in the playoffs. Bills can also beat everyone of them as well, but I think we lose to Rams and Tampa if they face either in the SB. Both teams have the ability to dominate the LOS on both sides of the ball.
  20. I hope he would have. An incomplete pass adds 35 seconds of clock
  21. I would rather have 3+ min, a timeout and 2 min warning to score 7 than 67 seconds to get a FG with no timeouts What would you all do?
  22. Giants lost the game on a dumb taunting penalty and a dropped pass on 2nd and 7. Just awful.
  23. I love this Heisman House commercial
  24. Let them score and hope you can get a TD to match
