  1. It was almost like Dorsey was using Moss' carries to keep the defense honest and set them up for Singletary's weak side carries to the wide side of the field.
  2. There were a few instances where I noticed that Poyer layed off bringing the lumber at the end of a play, which is very out of character for him. That looked like another one of them. I think he's really protecting that elbow right now.
  3. They were probably scared to death of you guys. Yeah, it sounded pretty close on TV. Close enough they I would have guessed it was 30-40% bills fans, not 15%
  4. I think a lot of the disconnect is that I'm not much of a stat guy; there are very few instances where I find them really useful. For the RB position when so much of the result is wholly dependent on the 10 other guys around you, stats hold little water for me. I think he's a better pass catcher because he's more instinctual at finding holes in zones, and he's smoother at tracking the ball, securing it and transitioning upfield. If I look at that, it tells me that Moss' runs are coming in predictable situations with loaded boxes (i.e later in games with leads where the Bills have indeed used him frequently, as well as obvious short yardage situations where the Bills have also used him frequently) and he's getting contact right near the LOS, while Motor is getting carries in more diverse situations that allow him to get some momentum going forward before he's dealing with tacklers.
  5. Get that ridiculous nonsense out of here That was the first and only time Moss has fumbled in the 200+ carries he's had for this team. That's 1 fumble for every 214 carries In the 500 carries that Singletary has had, he's fumbled 7 times. That's 1 fumble for every 71 carries. That means Singletary has fumbled about three times more often than Moss. Who has the fumbling problem? 🤡
  6. I don't agree with this at all. Motor is certainly a better ballcarrier with better vision and more wiggle, but Moss is still a better blocker, a better short yardage back and a better pass receiver. I think all of those things are self-evident. I do agree that they need Singletary more involved and both of their backs need more touches to take some pressure off Allen and minimize the wear and tear that is inevitably going to start accumulating. That's just flat out silly;
  7. Yeah, I should have put DaQuon in there also, he's a tough grinder up there. Phillips is generally tearing upfield as fast as he can so I don't see him holding the POA all that often.
  8. Yeah, when he had any room to operate he dropped the hammer on people a couple times. There were also a few times that he had OLinemen in his lap as soon as he got the ball and he did well to get a yard or two out of it. He's not going to make people miss, but he's good in multiple facets of the game and the coaches clearly trust him with a variety of responsibilities. I don't know why so many people dump on him all the time, he's a tough ballplayer and there is absolutely a role for him on this team.
  9. Moss actually excelled in that role a couple years ago if I remember right.
  10. Thank you; it's good to know I'm not totally out to lunch.
  11. I'm not sure that's why the balls were slightly underthrown. I think Allen has dedicated himself to making a concerted effort this year not to overthrow his deep shots and let his guys make plays on the ball. They left some yards and points on the field last year when he was playing it a little too safe on his deep shots, and I think he recognized that and decided to make that one of his points of emphasis in the offseason.
  12. They hit Stafford 22 times last night without blitzing a single time*. *(I did think I saw Milano up the A gap once in the first half but the All 22 folks claimed there were zero blitzes so I'll go with that)
  13. While I'm lookin back like Lot's wife...
  14. I missed it at home because Chris Collinsworth never shuts the hell up.
  15. Yep, that's why it is no longer watchable and hasn't been in several years.
  16. Not to mention, it's not just the fans. The way Dorsey, Diggs and Allen went after him last night, it was obvious it's personal.
  17. Thanks for making me choke on my pasta....
  18. Late 1st / Early 2nd maybe?
  19. In his entire career, Jordan Phillips has had exactly one year where he had more than 3 sacks. Ed Oliver has never had a year where he has had less than three sacks. Over the last 3 years Ed Oliver has had almost 120 tackles while Jordan Philips has had 65 In the same time frame, Ed Oliver has had twice as many stuffs as Phillips has. I bet if you could add up how many doubles they've faced in that time, Ed would be dealing with twice as many of those too. Phillips flashes pretty on occasion, but he is nowhere near as good a ballplayer as Oliver.
  20. At one point I thought I saw him take a funny hop at the top of a route, then Kumerow ended up getting a lot more snaps than expected. Hard to imagine a healthy Diggs foregoing more opportunities to torture Jalen Ramsey. Is Stefon hiding a little something?
  21. Boogie could get kicked back inside if Ed can't go. If not, I think he's a stouter End than Epenesa.
  22. I like watching DB's trying to rip it out of there. He barely even notices they're there and they end up looking like little kids hanging off Daddy.
  23. Are they saying he's the 9th best player on the Rams? That's probably a little low, I'd probably have him just sneaking into their top 7.
  24. I'm going to get killed for this but my favorite wing sauce has this for a base: A whole bunch of this mixed in for extra flavor: A dollop of this to add a tiny bit of sweet: And then a couple pats of butter Before you sumbitches go upside my head, the wings are served with celery and good blue cheese dressing with a lot of extra crumbles mixed in. NO ranch on the table.
