I propose we call the defense Hank. I've always liked the name Hank. It's the salt-of-the-earth, old-fashion, blue collar kind of name.

Does One Bills Drive extend to the new stadium?

Thanks for that. I too am one that doesn't leave early. I also don't begrudge anyone that leaves. Some people can't stand the traffic. I understand that. But for me, we pay a lot to attend games, so I'm getting my money's worth. Plus, we drive to the game in traffic, tailgate for 2-3 hours, walk in the stadium early, then watch a 3 hour game. If it takes 2 hours to get home, so be it.

I thought we only named the bad stuff. So we could rattle them off like George Carlin's 7 words you can't say on television. I don't think there's a name for the 90s Wild Card comeback game. Or is my dementia kicking in?

If it really was Bill Burr, he'd be the best trash-talker on the team.

I think that was true the last few years. But now, with the way the team played Sunday, and how odd and somewhat dysfunctional the offseason was, things have gotten pretty sour with the fanbase. I checked in on their message board today, and the glaring sentiment is basically what they have now is s train wreck. From the owner, GM and now McDaniel, frustration is boiling over.

Is there any way to block the Ravens offense (or more appropriately, the Bills defense) for 3 1/2 quarters? That would make for a much more enjoyable viewing experience.

Here is my hope: Bills take care of business against division enemies the next 4 weeks. Eagles beat the Chiefs this week Ravens lose to the Lions week 3. (It would awesome if they could lose to the Browns this week. Probably not gonna happen. But the Browns won one against them last year) Ravens beat the Chiefs week 4. If those happen and Bills beat the Saints, they'll be in really good shape (said Captain Obvious).

I don't think I can watch much more of those. I'm afraid I'm going to go to a place in my mind I'll never get back from.

This part I agree with. The only real thing that came out of Sunday night is we have a game lead on the Ravens and Chiefs with the tiebreaker over the Ravens. If the Bills do well enough to have a shot at the 1-seed, it'll likely come down to some form of a tiebreaker.

The containment of Henry I thought was deplorable. They've done better in past games. Lots of football left, but if they don't tighten up the D, the Bills will lose a game or 2 they absolutely shouldn't.

I don't watch a lot of college football, but I did tune in to a couple games this past weekend. It struck me how much more efficient and spot-on the refs were. Particularly with spots. It really makes you think.

Premature egression.

The Pats board is also rather painful. Cluttered with garbage.

The defense as a whole, is lesser than the sum of its parts.

John Harbaugh has a history of head-scratching late 4th quarter decisions. So......that could be a factor.

This will be an Eff'ed up season. I'm wondering how many time i'm going to curse my head off, pack up all my Bills gear in a box, just to pull it out 5 days later.

2 game balls: Josh of course and Ed Oliver. I'll give a deflated ball to Keon. He had a couple of nice catches, but a couple of miss steps (one, literally).

The title of this thread looks like an album cover.

Agreed, and thanks for the clarity. For some reason I thought he missed a PAT. It was actually the missed 2 pt conversion. Lots of football swirling in my mind today.

I hate to say it, but I think we need to keep 2 kickers on the team. Prater wasn't perfect, but he is a serviceable replace for sure!

Okay.....the hate for the defense was warranted. We can't survive the season...especially the playoffs with that defense! We survived. Move one. But fix the D!!

This defense is pathetic!!!!

McD's defense gives up 30+ points in big games WAY too much. It's appalling.

Relax. It's a process.
