    Yes, I think this is accurate.  Von has not yet been a difference maker for this team.  Mario was a difference maker, even though the team still stunk.

     

    Idk what a difference maker even is when the team missed the playoffs every year and never beat their division rival when they played their starters 😂. I don’t think Mario was even in a position where he could be a difference maker

  2. I feel like this is an unanswerable question.  Like can the Texans compare Diggs’ time with them this full season to someone healthy after this year is up?

     

    Von blew out his knee and was not himself last season but the start of 2022/start of 2024 he had 11 sacks in 15.5 games.  People talk about him like he’s been a jag his whole time here lol I think we’ve gotta see how he finishes out this year

    How about not ones that mock people with disabilities and diseases such as Cerebral Palsy or Multiple Sclerosis?

     

    Spaz is short for Spastic (in the UK at least) as, as @GunnerBill said, is a definite no-no on this side of the pond (now, at least. When I was at school back in the middle ages, it was, unfortunately, much used)

    In the us I don’t think people would really associate that word with those diseases at all.   Pretty much just means clumsy here

     

    im sure Brady had no idea it meant that in other countries and won’t ever use it again

    That's a little disingenuous.  Arizona and Seattle are 4-4.  It's not the Bills' fault the Jets and Fish have underperformed, and at the time they played the Titans Tennessee had the best pass defense in the league.

     

    This separation crap is totally overblown.

     

    The dolphins team we beat is pretty good…its completely ridiculous our dolphins win is getting talked about like it wasn’t quality because they lost their starting qb for a bunch of games that followed 

     

    Arizona and Seattle are def getting slept on they’d be 5-3 if they beat us.  Can’t count the bills win against a team against the bills 🤣

     

    jets aren’t good for sure but they’ve been pretty snakebit in close games and ended up losing close ones to a couple surprisingly good teams Broncos Vikings bills Steelers is a pretty tough 4 game stretch.  They feel like they should be 3-5 right now to me

    Given where we are picking each round these results are great!

    The overly negative posters never factor that in lol. Were supposed to be getting a guy with top 5 pick talent in the late first round every year somehow 😂

    Gronk and Brady both came back from ACL injuries and I would say were pretty successful.  Thurman Thomas played his entire NFL career with a 85% torn ACL.

    Any big name defensive players that bounced back?  It was probably partly the brace but von just didn’t have any bend last year which is a lot of his game

    It feels like most of the plays that have targeted him have been poorly executed. 

    The blocking on screens was so bad…he had a couple huge plays set up if one of our 3 olinemen standing around could block one defender 🤣. I still think he turns it around a bit if he ever gets healthy he’s a proven player

    Watched some Rams highlights from 2022. Man, Von was quick as a cat. Forgot how athletic he is when healthy. Last year was an aberration. 

    He was great to start his time here pre injury and good so far this year so we could still get something out of him yet.  

    outside of Adrian Peterson guys seem to really struggle coming back from acl injuries…I think the mental hurdle is so tough even once you get past the conditioning/physical stuff

    Wonder if Von Miller is ready to go after his 4 game suspension. I will say the biggest weaknesses thus far are the LBs and DEs creating pressure. Imagine if the Defense is 100% in the playoffs. 

    Groots been good and he’ll probably go off if von plays pretty well

    I don’t think it’s a given the Ravens take the division from the Steelers though.  That Steelers D is built to stop the run, which is the Ravens strength.  If the Browns can beat the Ravens, the Steelers are more than capable of doing the same.

    The russell Wilson qb swap gives them a chance he can at least threaten those deep sideline throws unlike fields

    PFF says that Allen has 12 turnover worthy plays on the year. 

     

    I think it should be about half that number. 

     

    There was one easy INT dropped by the Texans, but that's about it. If we want to count each fumble as a turnover worthy play that gets us to 6. 

     

    The INT he did throw shouldn't count b/c Cooper slipped 

    That’s absurd lol yea i think from memory it’s about 5 or 6 max

    Give Jones credit for being tough in the face of a brutalizing pass rush. But he just makes too many poor throws for an NFL starter.

    He misses wayyy too many easy throws

    Ridiculous second half schedule 

     

     

    That’s that third place in the division schedule for ya lol all the easy ones were front loaded I guess

    I'm looking for Miami to show up with a decent effort but the Bills will put in the work this week and get the job done at home. 

     

    Things seem to going well within the Bills team and Miami is in disarray.   

     

    The Bills have experience and good leadership, they set high expectations, and they are doing what it takes to meet their goals.  

     

     

     

    I would’ve been a little more worried if they pulled out that win tuas first week back.  Even if they pull this one out they’ve got a long way to go which is probably pretty deflating

    Buffalo won 4 out of their last 5 games last year by one score. 6, 2, 3, and 7 points. They were literally playing for their post-season hopes and one loss could’ve stopped them. I know it’s a slightly different roster, but McDermott & Allen both proved they could win in a dog fight. 
     

    Honestly, what are they supposed to do? Let Seattle run the score up so we can win by 3 instead of 21? I know he’s been pretty okay this season, but I am still petrified of putting my hopes on Tyler Bass and I think the Bills are too. I think that’s precisely why they are trying to demolish their opponent. 
     


     

     

     

    Should’ve won that eagles game by one score too…that was an absolute screwjob

    Not seeing a team who can stop them. They are a juggernaut.

     

    We are cursed ugh...

    Not that they won’t turn it on late in the season but they’re feelin closer to 2020 Steelers than 2007 patriots to me right now. If I had to guess

     

    they could definitely win it all again but they’re likely getting the bye and then 3 tough playoff games any of which they could lose..  Detroit looks better than them right now and a few afc teams are very close

    I went with Rousseau, who has had three game wrecker games so far. Tough choice! 

     

    I know he has only 3.5 sacks, but his 8 TFLs and 14 QB hits are twice as many as anyone else on the defense. Plus he has a couple of passes defensed.

    Yea I think people scoff at the sack total but it’s really cuz the guy hasn’t had much help.  I feel like the dline is gonna go off when von comes back even if von continues just his pretty good play like at the beginning of the season without any major improvements. 
     

    smoot has filled in ok, AJE will randomly make a huge play but is mostly eh.  Even a pretty good von is a pretty big upgrade

    They did lose quite a few games last year and looked vulnerable as ever. Then they came to OP in the playoffs and felt right at home. That’s why I don’t get people who say KC should fear the Bills. Really? 

    They won by 3 against a team with probably the worst mlb in the nfl forced into starting due to a bunch of injuries and they picked on him all game long.  They’re a great team but these bills chiefs games are gonna be extremely close 

     

    I don’t think they should ‘fear’ us though for sure haha they just know it’ll be a tough game

     

    I don’t think they’re as head and shoulders above everyone else as they used to be and last years superbowl was mostly them just being the healthiest team in the playoffs.  Obviously they can still win it though for sure
