    No, that’s not the point. The point of discussion here is the Zay Jones drop. Period.

     

    If you insist on using a dropped pass as a pretense for digressing into (yet another) critique of Allen’s completion percentage, I’m not interested as it’s been discussed ad infinitum.

     

    But feel free, regardless. You may not want to use a dropped pass as a proof source when citing Allen’s completion percentage, though. 

     

    All QB's have balls dropped.  Yes, Allen had a high incidence of that last season, however, that was not the only or even main reason his completion percentage was so poor.

    That, or the REALITY that national media have no incentive to put any energy into informed coverage of a small market team.  They get caught ALL THE TIME spewing complete nonsense that proves they aren't putting in the time to earn their paychecks.

     

    The all-time classic, of course, was Marshall Faulk having to make a weak apology for saying the Bills wouldn't be good b/c they needed to upgrade at OLT - when they had pro-bowler Jason Peters at OLT.

     

    More recently, Nate Burleson apologized for leaving Tre' White off his list of top 5 rookie CBs after the 2017 season.

     

    This is a pretty constant behavior, and since the lazy incompetent Faulk is still employed, I am pretty sure they all know the consequences are minimal. 

     

    Reporting on the Bills is taken as "vacation time" by the nationals, and they usually mail it in with little to no effort applied.

     

    Maybe they should win some games and this would not happen?  I mean the media guys you are whining about have NEVER seen the Bills win. Some of them not even born yet when the Bills were last good lol.

    Absolutely are hard to fully be there as there is only on Donald and One Oliver size and talent in the league right now.  Tell me how is he undersized stacking a double team fighting across an All Pro OG Face and making the play in the hole?

     

    I need to find the Baldy breakdown and watch again, I can't picture the play.  But from the sounds of it I could question how long an undersized player could keep that up.

    That is simple, lazy logic.

     

    Better (big boy) logic would state that, since Donald has succeeded in the NFL at his size, it's not out of the question to think that Oliver can also be successful in the NFL at his size.

     

    Logic dictates Donald is rare, not that Oliver will have similar success just because they are the same size lol.

    I don’t think it’s that, it seems like to most fans and many writers on the Bills beat that Ed had a pretty good night.  Their take doesn’t seem to match up with the evaluation of the National reporters 

     

    That's kind of the definition of homerism.

    Look all these Media types need to talk about the same old stuff.  Remember Aaron Donald WAS TO SMALL to play DT as well.  How is that turning out?

    Ahhhh The Same People that said he was too small have to use that as their Narrative now.  Quick Question what is the Size of the BEST DT in the league Aaron Donald?

     

    He is undersized, so is Donald.  Because Oliver is the same size Oliver = Donald?  c'mon

    No one should expect him to be the next Donald.  And the summary by Cosell goes beyond, "he ain't no Aaron Donald."

     

    But saying that his size is a concern when the best DT in football is the same size, to me, is silly.

     

    Some Bills fans are upset because what was described is not an accurate representation of what actually happened. 

     

     

    Donald is quite the exception.

    How do you feel about the show MacGyver?  MacGyver seems like a show you would really enjoy. Any truth to that?

     

    I got warned for spamming the other day, and asked if pizza talk was spam and never got an answer.  How is this post not spam?

    He was watching Ed with his eyes closed....the same way he should keep his mouth.  

     

    I watched Baldy's breakdown and he basically said Oliver was stonewalled all night.  I think fan reaction to anything negative about Oliver is just a bit over the top.  He's undersized, and so far it shows. Lets see what happens the next game!

    I used to go to the Bills website just to get news about the team, since the local coverage is all NFC North. That's when I discovered BBMB - it was operated by the Bills' organization. I really didn't have a problem with the mods there, although there was one who seemed to have a double standard about insulting other posters. (I won't mention names, but it's NOT one of the two who now post over here.) I did get a minor infraction once, for posting a link to an Onion article about Fitz. (He was a Bill then.) The article (but not the link) had the F word in it, so I got a slap on the wrist. The mod who did it was cool about it, though.

     

     

     

    MASH was about the worst mod on BBMB, guy was simply an #######.

    Well, winning playoff games just does not happen to this organization any more, either.   I remember "the good old days" of Kelly, Thomas, Smith, Benett et al when the Bills were big winners despite their rowdy ways.  I'll praise Beane and McDermott when their vaunted "culture" produces regular winners on the field.

     

    I don't really think I was praising them.  And yeah, I do remember the SB years.  If they didn't party so much they just may have won one of those games...

    Peterman is an ex-Bill who played historically bad football while he was here. I've read the above posts, and don't see anything worthy of clutching your pearls. Bad players get discussed on these boards all the time, and Peterman literally set records for bad football. Why on Earth should he be off limits?

     

    Probably because he's religious.  I can't think of another reason.
