  1. Beane drafted an all pro guard, he gave him to Cleveland because the coaches didn't think he was that good but developed instantly in Cleveland to all pro status. Wyatt Teller's trade has never been explained to my liking and I want to know who is responsible just like the 13 seconds,

    We all know last Sunday was not a back injury. He CLEARLY had a concussion, mild or whatever. Slammed his head on the ground, got up to walk, shook his head real quick trying to clear the cobwebs, then began to wobble when he walked, and teammates had to help him. Last night he has a head injury of a more gruesome variety. That one was scary. Laying there with his fingers all twisted up after being slammed to the ground by a 300+ lb man. It made me think of Trent Edwards and the Adrian Wilson hit. Trent was looking like the QB we had been waiting for until that day. That one hit changed everything. After that he was scared to death in the pocket. His career continued as a backup for a few years, but he was never the same. Tua was just starting his ascension after a couple of mediocre seasons and now this happens. He was definitely playing better. But now one has to wonder if this will change that trajectory. Will he be scared in the pocket? Will he see "ghosts" and be rattled at the first sense of pressure? Mentally, and physically, will he be able to overcome this? Sidney Crosby, different sport I know, has missed a ton of time due to head injuries and I don't believe he's been the same since that terrible concussion he had. I hope Tua returns to full health and doesn't have life altering effects from this. It still makes you wonder with how bad it looked last night on the field. 

    My thoughts exactly when I saw that play last night. This could end his career like Trent Edwards, I remember that play so well, early in the season and playing well and that one play ended it all even though he recovered physically he had footsteps in his head and was never the same player.

    The NFL or players association needs to step in and do something about this. We could have had several players die or be so heat effected that it could effect those players for several games. This is a safety issue. When the dolphins play in buffalo they have the same heaters and cold weather gear and it’s on equal footing. In Miami one team gets to be in the shade the entire game while the other side bakes in the sun. I’ve never been to Hard Rock stadium. But it appears there is some sort of screen or something that keeps their side shady. This is a very unfair advantage that effects the players heath. It would be like the dolphins having to play in leather helmets Vs the Bill's with todays helmet technology. I’m not pissed that we lost. I’m mad about how the sun effected the Bills players more because one team gets the shade while the other team bakes. This needs to stop to protect player safety. 

    I live here is south Florida and have been saying since the new stadium bakes the opponent by design of the owner of the Dolphins. The position and roof design give complete shade on the home team side and cook the visitors. The only solution I see is to ban 1 pm games from this stadium in September and October or extens the roof to shade the entire stadium. This is the tropics.

  4. Using the no huddle is in every teams 2 minute drill, but to use it regularly is also dangerous because you can put your defense back on the field in a matter of seconds with three incomplete passes. I still like the idea of picking a series or two within the game to surprise the defense.

    great job.
     

    Love the quip about Zach Wilson not being able to scramble forward— haha.  I think you saw what I saw, which is that anytime Wilson scrambled, he would like run 20 yards backwards. Very odd. 

    My biggest take away from the game is why did we keep throwing passes into the wind taking no time off the clock and forcing punts into the wind? The dumbest play calling I have ever seen in my life. We are lucky to win that game with this type of decision making.

    I think you're wrong.  Keep both.  They're small guys and it's a long season.  Plus they offer some coaching strategy bonuses, McK can't be covered one-on-one and Beas is great finding the soft spot in zones.  As for the trouble and attention, next year should be vastly different.

     

    IMO, it's Sanders that doesn't get re-signed.  Gabe takes over as #2 with Kumerow backing and groom a draft pick.

    Beasley is a 7.6M hit next year and McKenzie might not be offered a contract again because someone in the Bills organization doesn't like him. He only is paid 1M this year. I would take McK straight up against Beasley any day and why I don't understand why he wasn't offered a contract and when we finally sign him don't play him until necessary. That is bad coaching to me.

    Mc-Z was awesome yesterday.  He was open all day, made some huge clutch plays....and that jet-sweep play that worked so well last year, why haven't we used it this year??  Keep Mc-Z in the lineup and give him the ball!    

    I felt that all year and why I question who ever made the decision to keep him out of the offense this year after how he finished last year. We weren't even going to re-sign him and got him on the cheap. He is a dynamic game changing Tyreek Hill type player that needs the ball. The Jet sweep was removed from the offense this year.

  8. I question the Bills talent judgement on the offense when they trade Teller and only signed McKenzie as an afterthought after his big performance at the last game against Miami last year. He is a Tyrek Hill type of player with better speed than Beasley and plays multiple positions. He is a gamebreaker that we haven't used all year and I want someone to ask the coaches why? His big fumble sticks out because he had so few plays all year and didn't deserve to be benched when Sanders is dropping passes regularly.

    To me the turning point in the game was in the forth quarter after the Titans kicked a FG which made the score BUF 31 TENN 27. At that point the Bills were in control and poor play calling and decisions by Allen were our heal.  The Bills got the ball and after a first down to Diggs it set up a 1st and 10 at the Bills 37 yard line with 8:59 left on the game clock.  Now at this point in the game with a 4 point lead a FG drive would have worked but a TD would have put it away. Instead what do the Bills do.  On first down Allen was trying to go deep but instead gets sacks for a 7 yard loss (he did have Sweeney wide open to his right side which probably would have been a 6 to 8 yard gain on 1st down instead it was 2nd and 17). On second down with 8:38 left in the game Allen goes deep again and throws into double coverage for Sanders in the middle of the field luckily it feel incomplete. On 3rd and 17 with 8:14 left on the clock we had to go deep and Allen threw it out of bounds to Jake.  At that point we still had the lead but it felt to me like we loss the game.  Unlike our drive last week against the Chiefs in a similar situation we had a great time consuming drive to win the game. 

     

    I don't know how we could have corrected that..and I am not mad at Josh...I love that dude...he is must see TV when he is playing.  And I like what McDermott called at the end of the game by not going for the FG and putting it on the line but the Bills had three time outs going into the start of that drive.  I don't know who manages the TO's and I hope JA has some say in when they can take some after surveying the field but at that point maybe a TO could have been useful to clear the head and make sure everyone was on the right page first downs move the ball down field.  The Titans weren't going to let us beat them deep and the underneath stuff was there that drive and I don't know why the Bills were trying to beat them with a long ball when the short passes with about 6 first downs moving down the field would have even taken the winds out of their sails also.  Sorry for the long write up.   

     

    You summed it up perfectly. I felt the exact same way watching.
