Jackson is very good at avoiding the big hit. So for me, I would rather see Jackson and the offense become frustrated rather than “hit”.

When will the ground breaking ceremony in Batavia be?

Yes.

We need to cut Kno...nevermind.

This thread is the biggest argument against the notion of tanking for a high draft pick in football. While it might work in basketball or hockey where one great player can dictate a game on a regular basis, it just isn’t possible in football. Football is too much of a team sport with so many players affecting each play. A great QB can only do so much...the whole of the team is much more important than its parts.

Order in the AFC East is about to be restored. The Bills and the Dolphins are going to be battling it out for the banner for years to come while the Jets and the Patriots will be on the other side of the chain link fence asking “Can we play, too?” we won’t let them. Because they suck.

ESPN is the best.

I didn’t read the whole thread because I’m lazy, but I think that the Josh Allen quote is actually “...all the Tok-ing and all the f’ing dancing...” I think he made TikTok into a verb making the dig a more direct shove into JuJu’s area. Ignore this post if someone else mentioned it.

Curb stomp these 9ers

It was good to be back on top for the first time.

Sooo good on offense. Smooth like buttah

So being at the extreme end of a graph is either a good thing or a bad thing which has either a major impact or a minor impact on the outcome of a game. Got it.

Cole Beasley could be the Broncos QB.

Coach McCarthy looks like a character from South Park.

Sugar Rush Josh Best. Ride. Ever.

Singletary and Moss both rushed for 80 yards. The Bills are 6-2, having just beat the Pats*. Those two things mitigate all the negatives.

Came looking for insights into the Giant and the WFT. Anyone? Anyone?

Wow. The Browns and the Steelers both suck.

I think the Steelers will get Darnold, Ben will retire after 2021 leading them to suck really bad for several years, then draft Arch Manning.

That’s the key: the front four. They need to shed and charge into gaps rather than just engage blockers and let the LBs (we play 2 of them...not 3 or 4) hit the gap. Defending the run from the nickel is more about the front four than the line backing corps.

I don’t understand the Edmunds disapproval. The Bills play primarily a nickel defense. This means that they are susceptible to the run. A good coach with a hard hitting running back can, with motion, manipulate a gap which will by necessity be filled by either the nickel back or a safety playing in the box. It isn’t that Edmunds isn’t shedding blocks or hitting his gap; it’s that the backs are running to the gap being filled by someone from the secondary. It’s the old “attack where they are weak”. Why would anyone want to run at Edmunds? How do we fix this? I dunno...Play less nickel? Do we want to do that? Because I would rather give up 130 yards rushing than 330 yards passing.

I remember a bunch of years ago, Chris Carter said that pretty much every player in the NFL is a product of their system. He said he was just “ok” until the Vikings went more West Coast style and he moved to more of a slot receiver which led to success. He also said that the only player he had ever seen who could have been a success in any system was Dan Marino. Based on that premise, which I absolutely agree with, Allen would be better on the Jets than Darnold, but not as good as he is now. Likewise, Darnold would be better on the Bills than he is on the Jets, but not as good as Allen. And I don’t think Brady becomes Brady if he wasn’t picked by the Pats.
