wow what a unfunny attempt to be funny. Got any more gut busters in your bag buddy?the screen name checks out at least. Creating a login on this board should come with an AARP card at this point.
you do know players in the past have worn “0” and “00” right?
Now, now, simmer down young wippersnapper.
Imagine: imaginary numbers.
I do remember Jim Otto, the Raiders' center

Sure, here are three peer-reviewed studies that suggest that sugar is not a healthy breakfast option for children:

He was a significant reason that Hank's team was able to matriculate the ball down the field.

Oliver os a three technique DT. Daquan Jones is a one technique DT. They are not interchangeable.
These links give an overview of their different roles.

Keep in mind that Oliver played hurt for much of this year.

King Henry:
Great back.
We can't afford him.

If you listen to the podcast, the caster gives a well reasoned and nuanced evaluation of Dorsey's season. In other words, he's out of touch with this board.
Seriously, the stats he quotes show that Dorsey did as well as Daboll the previous year and Dorsey had to deal with a wounded Josh.

Don't forget the Bisons' Luke Easter and his Easter Eggs over the scoreboard at Offermann Stadium
Some of his homeruns still haven't come down.

But I refuse to believe that a QB like JA only gets one shot where everything aligns properly.
Dan Marino played for 17 years.
He went to the Superbowl in his 2d year and lost.
He never returned.

It's a bad case of disappointed expectations.
During the drought people expected the team to lose so when they did, expectations were fulfilled.
This year, people expected the Superbowl. When that didn't happen people were left disappointed and angry.
This, too, shall pass.

A sad story all around.
Life is precious and none of us are promised fullness of years.

It's a variation on Pop Warner's old hidden ball play. You may read about it here:

and see it executed by a high school team in this clip:

Anything would be better than the Cover Zero we played in the Bengals game, as in cover zero receivers.
Note: engage sarcasm detectors.
Seriously, if you make major changes to the D you need some different players on D. If you do that you just mke it harder to upgrade our O.

Eagles fans want to win in the worsy way and when they do they are.

I have noticed that Josh takes his time deciding to whom to throw.
Without access to the all-22 film I can't tell whether he's takes his time processing what the secondary is doing or whether it's his receivers are not getting open quickly or their routes are longer.
Any thoughts?
The NextGen website ranks John number 27 on release time at 2.89 secs. For comparison Joe Burrow is 2.55 and Mahomes is also 2.89, (likely the result of his scrambling)

Unless you were playing the Broncos with Elway at QB. No lead seemed safe if your team was playing Denver.
Or Unitas with the BALTIMORE Colts.

Yeah I think their personnel is tailor made fo a gap scheme run mix. That is when they are at their best. Their run and pass games are super vanilla, zero play action. As much as he sucks as a play caller, a little Greg Roman run game would really help their cause.
I don't disagree with you. That said, you need to establish the run for play action to be effective and we all know how good the Bills were at establishing the run game this year. (Note: engage sarcasm detector).
The Run Pass option (RPO) game was probably the closest the Bills were getting to true play action. With Allen's running ability and our otherwise anemic RB run game, the RPO style was the better choice.

Both Brian Urlacher, the Bears HOF middle linebacker and Tremaine Edmunds were coached by Bob Babich who retired last year as the Bills' LB coach.
Edmunds plays the same role as Urlacher did in the Cover 2 defense. They both can cover the hole in the middle between the two deep safeties.

Reminiscent of the 1934 NFL Championship game?
The Giants beat the undefeated Bears 30-13 by outscoring their opponents 27-0 in the fourth quarter. Their victory was attributed to the fact that during the fourth quarter the Giants wore sneakers, giving them better traction on the frozen, icy field.

Back in the old days you could cream the QB mercilessly and mug the receivers all the way down the field until the ball was in the air. OL could not extend their arms for blocking. These are some of the significant rules that limited the effectiveness of the passing game.

Well, I agree with much of this, but I just don't think the passive D employed by Frazier is the answer. I agree with those folks who assert 1) The scheme requires too many premium athletes and the health of those athletes to be effective and 2) the defense puts up gaudy numbers by pummeling average and weak teams in the regular season, but struggles against better competition in the playoffs. Changing schemes may require a step backwards regarding personnel, but staying with something proven ineffective when it counts most isn't exactly staying in place.
Good point about the scheme. It would be useful to know whether other teams have reached / won the Superbowl with a passive scheme. Note: this is a general question for the forum. If you know the answer please enlighten us.

The regime is great a building a program. Building a winning culture and going to the playoffs. I have confidence they can win regular season games. Make playoff appearances.
Agreed. They have gone from the Drought to making the playoffs each year.
3 hours ago, newcam2012 said:The regime had yet to show they can even get to an AFC final game and obviously the Super Bowl. I have serious doubts they can achieve this.
Agreed re your first sentence. Re your second sentence none of us really know what the future holds. That said, it remains to be seen whether the team can advance further.
