    Id rather see him blitzing or playing man every single down. Move him over, he cant be the MLB of this team.

     

    Watching him play zone and trying to process what is happening on the field is hard to watch. Hes always a second late to figure out whats going on.

     

    Hes still a baby, so i wouldnt mind keeping him if we can get him on the cheap and hope he can continue to learn the game, but to pay him top 10-15 money would be absurd.

    His blitzes are only successful when unopposed.  Lacks violent hands at point if attack. Can't bull rush anybody.

  2. The last of the great rockers are all in their 70s.  Have a conversation with many in their 20's about these groups and you'll usually get blank stares or maybe a comment about how their dad had their cd. Reality. 

     

    The halftime show is now firmly more a "show" than it is a mini concert. Dancers, props, fake guitar playing, pre-recorded tracks, etc. It's visual. It's diverse across genre. It's safe. It's the NFL.  Presumably it's profitable.

    Don't care for the new crowd at all. If you can find them on one of those retro channels, Dick Cavett had some really interesting actual conversations with folks. But seems it's mostly all about cheap laughs and bowing down to the topic of the day, so I tune out.

    .....and politics.  So pass.  I'd rather hear what TBD posters have to say when it comes to football.  Cavett was good.

    Trent Williams, the gold standard amongst tackles, is 6-5 320. Brown is 6-8 290, does he get bigger in the weight room? or with Josh's mobility do we keep him long and mean.

    You could see more weight on him but he seems to understand how to position his tall frame so as not to get bulled over.  His balance and foot speed are good from what I see.  Has a unique roll in that he's part of Allen's frequent roll-out to his right.  

  5. If I had to give a game ball to a position group it would be the O line.  The run game likely (can't confirm) brought the NE D up a bit to help the passing game while keeping the Bills D rested.  Maybe someone on the board saw if we got big pass plays against their 3-4 base or if we were running against their dime??  

     

    I am not ready to buy the "Pass first - pass always" narrative of Schopp and Jeremy White - two folks who almost get apoplectic when we try to run.  In the 90's the Dolphins passed their way into the record books and out of the championship game in part because they lacked balance - when the pass was shut down, so were they.

    Man - has anyone checked other boards?  There is a profound existential crisis going on in New England right now.

     

    Older fans there are fine - they're trying to walk the younger fans through it & give them the "it'll all be okay!" pep talk.

     

    Younger fans are lost.  "All I've known is winning - what am I supposed to do with this?"  "It's not my fault that I grew up watching Boston sports win all the time!"

     

    It's like watching a trust fund kid find out that a bad investment was made & they have to get a job now....

     

    In an era where brains are conditioned to not have to wait for anything - with immediate access to thousands of options in music, dating, rentals, opinions, entertainment choices, video games, etc., coupled with a "you deserve ...." entitlement, waiting 10 years for Allen to retire will destroy a generation of Bostonians.

  7. Why name the defense when the national media or Buff News will surely name it the "The blue collar, lunch pail, small town, hard working, cold weather, beer drinkin', pouring steel at the plant, work boot, leather glove, hard hat, bologna sandwich, blah, blah, blah, cliché defense".

    With the velocity that Allen throws, how are receivers have done catching in cold weather, and the expected temps, the WR's should be living outside with the jugs machines cranked up to 11 from now until Saturday.

     

    I am way less concerned about practicing outside for the other position groups

    ...and maybe the punter.

  9. I'd like to see more plays in rhythm even if they're short passing plays.  The QB improv off a broken play is exciting but it also indicates that the initial play call was ill-timed, easily read, or took too long to set up.   When the Bills move the ball predominantly on improv heroics, Daboll in not calling a good game and it usually seems to be accompanied with forced bullet passes and ignoring the easy 5-7 yards in the short passing game.  Singletary isn't Thurman or Marshall Faulk, but he's looking pretty good here as of late.
