No idea how this stat is measured ultimately but rewatching some games he does get held a few times where it looks like he had his guy beat and had that flat drop while open so there’s been instances of beating his man and it doesn’t go down as a catch and/or target
-
I think it has more to do with the style of game and we just happened to have two in a row this way (possibly more coming lol we shall see). Games that go down this way he definitely has always gotten happy feet.
i do think the roll out right to buy time is somewhat of a practiced situation though where guys know what to do once josh does it but he might rely on it a little too much in these style of games though

Diggs has passion. a lot of guys don't. he and several players know McClappy is full of it. can't have them on the team because they don't buy in to the process.
the media and all of that never liked him because he's not full of crap. the young reporter girl for the bills doesn't like him because she is some 20something year old goofball girl vs. a professional. her pretend ivory tower doesn't deserve respect.
I don’t think he’s as bad as the diva allegations claim but he’s certainly not what you’re explaining either 😂.

Well he broke his hand landing on it there. So of course he’s protecting himself more
He seemed to be sliding more towards the tail end of last year too I don’t think this has a been in response to his hand/this season. Even the ‘hurdling in from 10 yards out’ play didn’t seem particularly high risk…the defender went extremely low

These injuries are a large part his own fault. Sorry he’s not getting a pass. This year
maybe instead of running and jumping / hurdling in from 10 yard out week 1.He learns to just become elite anticipatory accurate thrower in the red zone. His passing metrics are bad near goaline
prob should have just dirted that trick play - but I’ll blame OL and Brady for that
then lastly. Hes not going to be able to bail right and live that way for his career. He’s gonna have to learn to navigate and step up the pocket and throw w good platform more
I feel like we’ve been running into eachother on these Josh posts often enough where this doesn’t need a super long response haha so for this one I’m gonna stick to…that week 1 play really wasn’t a hurdle at all or even that dangerous of a play….it was more of a sidestep than anything. He’s clearly been protecting himself better this year and people are starting to complain he’s possibly protecting himself too much it seems 🤣

Hes winning. And in command of the offense and the situation. At all times. I’m not looking at it from a hard stance of numbers / stats this year.
His defense is dragging the lifeless husk of Patrick mahomes around 🤣. Of course you’re not looking at number/stats or giving it the eye test haha because that would make you objectively wrong.
my original comment was ‘do people think mahomes is consistent this year’
3 minutes ago, balln said:Nope I’ve been consistent. Mia game I was very concerned w their passing game. The BAL game Allen was bad. And then this game. Historically worse. Let me say that again. HISTORIC.
So you get caught up in niche Allen stats from an individual game this year like completion percentage when attempting x number of throws but will not even check on what mahomes has been doing at all 😂. Got it! Makes perfect sense

Ridiculous reasoning.
Why does Mahomes get a pass when there are a few injuries? Allen has had to work with sub-par talent most of his career here, and VERY sub-par coaching compared to Mahomes. And Allen was missing his #1 receiver last week too.
You can think he's better. Lots of people do. But at worst, it's extremely close.
Because must be as negative as possible after a loss 🤣. Mahomes has looked very ordinary this year and excuses aren’t allowed when talking about bills players but the same exact statement can be made to prove non bills players are superior lol

His tackles are atrocious. His#1 wr is out.
hes 100 times better then Allen in every way. Most importantly- composure / command of the game/ offense and situation.
Time to wake up everyone
I think finally for once mahomes and Allen’s respective situations are converging and it will be the cleanest comparison year we probably will ever have between the two and the results haven’t really supported your conclusion so far. We shall see though for sure.. when mahomes isn’t getting elite oline play and isn’t stocked with explosive wrs, he doesn’t look next level like you are explaining.
He has made plenty of boneheaded mistakes this year, looks lost at times, and so on.

I don't think these WRs are savvy enough to cut off routes and find soft areas in the coverage. Or maybe its just not an aspect of Brady's offense. They all seemed to just continue their routes even when blanketed. I saw a number of times they could either cut off a route, or identify a coverage to get into better situations.
That definitely seems like an issue…SOME of these missed throws seem like josh is throwing to the spot he’s expecting them to route adjust to and they haven’t really been doing it. That could be somewhat correctable I think but we’ll see

He had more plays w/ WIDE open receivers yesterday than Josh has had the the whole season.
And when he doesn’t which has been the majority of their games this year he’s been kind of a mess lol

It's like, why should it be that the Jets will be "fired up" because they just fired their coach because they aren't good so now we're in trouble because they need their coach to get fired to actually play well? Why can't we be the ones that are fired up because we lost 2 straight and are the better team, come in and take care of business? It's always the other way and its annoying.
Because the overly negative posters that lurk the gameday threads have stayed a few extra days this week 😂. I think without all this craziness happening to the jets they had a real shot at beating us and now it’s more of a distant chance

No way in hell they’re firing him. Owning the Sabres is the ultimate juxtaposition as to having the worst team year in and year out in professional sports league. Paying coaches and then forced to fire and eat all that $ w contracts. He wants NO part of that w the bills. No no no. Sean and Brandon are more than good enough. And it’s sad bc we are in HC and FO purgatory ladies and gentlemen. I thought Allen would have to ascend to mahommes level / elite consistent qb play. But I don’t think Allen ever will. He needs help. Get ready!
Do people think mahomes has been consistent this year?

You are struggling mightily with reading comprehension haha this is about how yards are meaningless if you’re not turning them into tds because that one loss to the dolphins we had a buttload of yards and couldn’t convert in the redzone. Its literally proof of the opposite of what you’re trying to say 😂
if McDermott secretly hates points you think he’s just gonna volunteer that to the media? lol this is insane

Are you seriously saying he is only implying the preseason and that he wouldn’t be concerned about scoring points in the regular season?No lol the CONCERN is what he’s talking about to which the answer was yes and no…it has nothing to do with preseason specifically. His level of concern isn’t high because self inflicted mistakes were keeping points off the board and he thinks they’ll clean it up
the question was not DO YOU WANT TO SCORE MORE POINTS to which he answered yes and no like you are painting it 😂. Really thought you were being at least somewhat sarcastic but I guess not haha

McDermott clearly doesn’t want to score points. This is what he said before the season. I guess he changed his mind.“Yes and no," McDermott said. "When you are not scoring points on offense, is it a concern? Yeah, because that’s what we are looking to do on offense. That said, I think if you dive into it and you’re looking at why, I think there’s been some times where we have moved the chains enough to get into a rhythm and then we shoot ourselves in the foot as I mentioned.“

You are reaching badly on this one but I think you know that 😂. The question was are you concerned your offense hasn’t scored more points in the preseason and the answer was well yea we want more points obviously and I think if we stop making dumba** self inflicted mistakes we’ll score my points
unquestionably he means he’s not overly concerned because they can clean things up and score more points. There is literally no other valid interpretation

I don't see ANYTHING in the bolded quotes that says "I want a low scoring, TOP, grind-it-out offense".
He said he wants to be able to win the line of scrimmage, run the football, and embody toughness. Ask the 31 other coaches in the league and they'll all tell you they want to do be able to do the same things.
When things are humming with the Bills offense and they're scoring 30+ and boat racing teams, you think McDermott is upset? When Josh Allen throws for four touchdowns and wins offensive player of the week, you think he'd prefer that James Cook had won it instead?
Saying you want to win the line of scrimmage and be able to run the football does not equal "I want low scoring, grind-it-out games that prioritize time of possession over scoring".Yea imagine if the quote was ‘I want to run it ok but pass it all over the place and not really stop the run’ 🤣. Like what coach doesn’t want to run it well and stop the run lol

Don’t know if this true…but this would be interesting if so.
I don’t trust ml football a whole lot but I wouldn’t be shocked…maybe if I saw it on sny which is what they’re citing I’d believe it more though
24 minutes ago, Captain Hindsight said:I watched a bit of Ulbrichs press conference. He talked about changing the roles of staff and generally spoke about how sad he was salah was gone. I think the feeling in the building is far more like “oh *****” and less so about “we got this”
Sometimes firing is fully justified (I believe it is in this case) but it feels like the owner is expressing no confidence in the team. The GM is probably on the way out. The entire coaching staff is basically fired. Their QB is 40 and looks it. I think it’s more likely they implode than have a great run. Most guys are gonna be lining up their next jobs and it’s not even halfway through the season.
People pointing out the Chargers last year playing us tough after Staley was fired. They were professional athletes that got absolutely embarrassed a week earlier. They were going to show up and play hard that week no matter if it was Staley coaching them or somebody else
Yea it feels like they’re giving up on the season but they really shouldn’t be.

And yet he has 9 catches in 5 games. Explain that for me. Either he isn’t being utilized right or these stats are not accurate. Less than 2 receptions a game.
This is my cue to provide the daily reminder that due to blowouts in either direction we are nearly missing an entire game of offensive production in a 5 game season if you’re looking at stats like total targets and stuff
also watching games like the chiefs game last night seems to give people this false notion that receivers get open way more than they actually do. If you look at those win rates the highest ones are in the high 20s…that means 70% of the time they’re not winning.
and the next question is, 15% of what? A team that runs the ball more there’s gonna be less total routes run so that factors in when you’re comparing it to per game targets
im also not really sure how they handle situations where Keon wins but josh is under pressure and can’t feasibly get him the ball, id assume that counts as a win still
so there’s a bunch that factors into it

They were seeing a lot of two deep shells up until this week, imo.
I don't think one week is a trend.
It wasn’t like guys weren’t beating it occasionally too. The plays were there to win that game we just didn’t make them for various reasons

Sounds familiar
The jets pick top 15 all the time and even top 5 pretty often. Idk how you can compare that to a team picking in the mid to late 20s perennially 😂
the 6 year stretch that ran through salehs first season they won 5 or less games 5 times. The 17 year drought era bills did it 4 times total for comparisonnothin against your post but I see people talkin like there’s no difference between an early first and a late first pretty often haha

The hilarious thing is Woody Johnson said they fired him and promoted Ulbrich to get some more positivity.
Saleh's main slogan is "Positive Vibes Only". He had t-shirts made with it.
Snooping on the jets forum the overwhelming consensus was Saleh was too positive and merely a cheerleader too 🤣

he hit his head pretty hard.....his hand wrist went limp as he slid/rolled to a stop.....sure looked like he was knocked out, however briefly
should be interesting if he experiences any symptoms this week
I def agree with the skepticism 100% but I think you can get knocked out without having a concussion (had to soften my language a bit after reading even more sources haha). I don’t trust that the independent neuros are actually independent hence the skepticism but in theory theyd be able to tell the difference

I agree with the intent of what youre saying and the rule...... but timeout was not a game changer, and the challenge loss is nothing.
TO ME, THE BIGGEST POINT IS WITH THESE REFS.... WHO, FREAKING, KNOWS?!?!? Id say if u gave that plat to 10 crews, 2 would overturn it from incompetence. We see stupid isht like that alllllll the time!!!!
But you only know this because you got to watch the offense stall out with a minute to go and three timeouts before halftime and react to it in hindsight from your couch or the stands in the stadium or local sportsbar 🤣. That extra timeout can be and often is the difference between 3 and 7 points before halftime in situations like that. This is what starts to irk me about the gameday thread hindsight posters. Yea obviously if mcd knew the offense was not gonna get in scoring range he knows he has nothing to lose by challenging the Kincaid play. But how the heck can he know that when that decision presents itself.
Let’s say we challenge it and lose, then the offense drives and we were a timeout short from punching it into the end zone. The hindsight posters would be just as mad for the wasted timeout. This feels like bizarro world because we are consistently and correctly goin after McDermott for blowing timeouts on hopeless challenges from time to time lol this was one of those

Diggs' Drama
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
They might need a true wr1 that can make tough contested catches down the sideline and has some speed but Diggs is not quite that anymore imo. He’s a good wr2 talent wise
collins went down and it is honestly pretty crazy no pass catcher on that Texans roster really stepped up to fill the void a bit more going against the likes of cam lewis and a rookie safety that missed time in training camp making his first start, and damar Hamlin
prime Diggs would’ve ROASTED there but it seems like things got pretty tough for them.
