    Bills D is legit! Top 3 in the league and kept the Bills in this game to the end.

     

    Pats D is also legit and IMO won the game for the Patriots with the 5 picks.

     

    all and all Bills fans should be optimistic for the future and I hope the Bills stay focused and don’t have a down game next week against a pretty good Titans team.

    Your team and fanbase can go ***** yourselves. America is sick of all of you douchebags.

     

    ***** off!

    I get that of course, but can you answer my question. If the coach and you go back to review that tape, who take more of the blame on that Rivers throw? And what percentage of the blame is it?

     

    Hmm, I have no idea if coaches would use percentage to assign blame, that doesn't sound right to me.  I would think a coach would tell the receiver you have to make that catch, as well as tell the QB you need to place the ball more accurately to increase chance of success. IMO, the majority of the blame on that play goes to the WR.  However, the overall chance of success of the play increases if the ball is better placed.

     

    If QB-X places the ball in stride 8 times out of 10 on that play vs. QB-Y placing it in stride 6 out of 10 times, over the course of a game/season/career, QB-X has the better odds of being more successful in the NFL.

    I think your missing the point

    ALL qbs.....and I dont care which one you point to.....Brady...Manning...Rivers....whoever...they ALL throw bad passes.

     

    The difference is that THEIR recievers make plays for them....so the bad passes get forgotten.....and ppl just look to the box score.

     

    Wanna know what I liked from last night?   Put Cole Beasely to work....used a short gain receiver which he did not do a lot last year....didnt immediately take off and run....and didnt take hits.   Its called progression.

     

    Of course all QB's throw bad passes.  However, the ones who throw the least number of bad passes typically have more success in the league. I say typically because there have been players like Favre, however that was a special case.  We have better odds of having a successful championship run if Allen is more accurate than more Favre-like.

    Of course thats true but in your opinion, looking at that Rivers throw, what percentage is that on Rivers and what percentage is that on the WR that the ball was not caught?

     

     

    That ball is caught likely a high percentage of the time by NFL receivers. However, if the ball is placed so the gate of the WR does not have to change, the completion % of that play increases.

     I know the game, I played it.  Yes, it wasn't the perfectly placed ball but it's more than catachable...this needs to be caught 100% of the time or it's a very bad drop on the WR.

    Catchable is "got his hands on it, it's slightly difficult but should have been caught".  This is a "no excuses, should have been easily caught".

     

    I guess when WR have to deal with the slightest adversity and I mean the slightest....it's okay if they don't catch it?

     

     

     

    I mean, it's probability.  The more well placed balls, the better odds the ball is caught.
