First Round Bust

lets see I think there is a qb named fitz-something-or-other for the WFT who makes $10M - so if you want to call him a non-starter for that kind of money I dont follow your logis as the WFT did not think enough of Heinicke to give him the job after some promising play last season, next season perhaps ? you think Brissett is better than Tua ? It may turn out to be the case down the road, but for now its Tua's job until its not.

from playing against backup qbs the past three weeks to playing two teams in a row that whipped us x 3 last season...will the real Buffalo Bills please stand up...

??? espn pinching pennies having an ex NBA player and analyst in Rose doing NFL coverage...very lame...calls the stadium an arena...nothing to see here....

the family that coaches together cuts hair together - note to Steve...a hoodie with the hood on dialed to max is a good look for ye...

we all circled this game when the schedule came out months ago, , we know the past, its time to show whether we have improved (game plans on both sides and esp the pass rush) ...or not...

also when the Ravens beat the Chefs two weeks ago, they delayed some blitzes as Mahomes is very effective with feeling the first wave of pressure, avoiding it, and throwing on the move, a key play was made on a delayed blitz leading to a pick on the play, I know McD loves his delayed blitzes as well, here's to a better pass rush and overall better gameplan and most important better execution than the last 2-3 times...

this big game will soon be over and the Pats may very well be 1-3 which is the best part of all..and we get them twice as well...would love another sweep and be the nail their coffin of a loosing season and missing the playoffs...

sad that football and hockey at the collegiate level were mostly inferior programs for decades across WNY (other than the frozen four)...that is another topic for another day...

O - Diggs D - Hughes and Milano (having ALL PRO season)

pour one and pour one out for Shady and his four years as a Bill. likely our last back we had that could and would be called a "star" or the featured part of the offense...and we traded who for him. ???.. Kiko Alonso (LB)...who spent only 1 year as an eagle before becoming a NFL journeyman...advantage...Bills Kiko Alonso..NFL teams... Buffalo Bills (2013–2014) Philadelphia Eagles (2015) Miami Dolphins (2016–2018) New Orleans Saints (2019–2020) San Francisco 49ers (2020)

read it and weep per Joe B...here are the Bills lowest grades after 3 games Josh is at the top of the bottom...and the bottom feeders are mostly OL with Mario, Oliver and then Zimmer the lowest on the D.. example - says Oliver was 1:1 for all of the last game and did not pressure the qb grade and snaps Feliciano and Dawkins have the most snaps on the team

beane was quoted as saying they had a first-round grade on Ford and they did move up in the second-round to get him...he has been hurt as well and the rotation to the tackle didnt quite work but he has the experience to kick-out there as emer fill-in...its all about your expectations...getting outplayed by a quality lineman like Payne is not an embarassment unless it continues on a weekly basis...he does seems to have heavy feet...not sure what the fix is unless he looses some weight to gain quickness

I defer to Joe B at the Athletic and his ALL-22 review which is published Weds after game review Mon and Tues - he gets technical-analytical-specific - worth it esp helpful is the season-long grades total in addition to the good game review of all players

excellent analysis, safe to say his pass coverage skills are good, his run coverage is not, based on quick decisions and OL hunting him down to be blocked. A better OLB than MLB perhaps is the question ?

tis the season of great expectations...why not...lets live large and enjoy any way we can !

...the OL...playing better...some TE and RB pass=blocking help ...Josh...had to figure out Sanders co-existing with Diggs and Beasley...its option 1A-1B-1C which is a blessing and a curse when the vets are all capable of getting open... ..D..starts with stopping the D..Star is under-rated in his contribution and a healthy Milano is having a All-Pro start to his season. and lastly coaching...needs to avoid "laying an egg"...see AFC champ game and season-opener ST...19 still figuring the subtle details of returning...Stevenson eligible to comeback from IR as soon as game 3...careful if its a move to the PS he may get claimed as Houston lost a returner...

and virtually no sun that day, slate-grey-Nov sky all day...add several hours of pre-game activity of eating-drinking and being merry, walking-around, throwing the ball around, waiting-in-line, then 3 hours of football watching...man we were spent... and if you want the Hammers lot experience, you can expect that lot to be full around 730 AM.

legacy is the fish from the 0 for the 1970s daze...then came the Pats and the same dominance over us thanks to TB-BB and our long-term incompetence...Jets..meh not worth it..outside the div...Chiefs, the road to the SB requires beating them....Steelers-Ravens...playoff wins usually required...NFC...Cowboys always a valued scalp...

one example, of soo many, jock and the average person, who are negative about Buffalo and when they visit-live in the area, the attitude changes to the positive...I took some friends from the Wash DC area up to Buffalo the last time we hosted Washington as they wanted to sample the Bills home game day experience; needless to say the Bills are their second favorite team and enjoyed our people, food and football culture...but they said our 40 degrees has to be the coldest they have experienced example two...Jerry Glanville, long-time coach, told a story that when as assistant he took a job in Buffalo, that his wife was upset and cried over it, and when they left town for another job, that she was upset and cried about leaving Buffalo... so good luck to Shady, he was the last of our go-to-backs when running the ball was still a priority..

well at least Brown, Doyle and likely Ford and last-active-roster-spot; Bates, provide swing tackle depth before tapping into PS depth...Spain, Winters, Long, Bodine, Newhouse and now Hart have to be the bottom feeders of Bean's transactions, but if the coach says get me a vet and you dont have cap room...dis-hart-ening...

great to see the rook have an impact game so early in the season, esp in his hometown, great for his confidence...as well as the DC having an outstanding game plan which was very aggresive

agree that the RFA qualify offer was likely too high so Bojo likely felt good about testing the market and rightly so, but had to wait until April to sign a lower-than-expected deal (Rams) and the Bills signed Haack very quickly, March 16, to 3 year deal, whereas Bojo got 1 year, and traded...

likley...so Bojo went UFA, had to wait it out and ended up signing for 1.020M with Rams who traded him to GB for TBD at end of camp...Haack makes 1.575M..so what are we getting for that extra 500k that Bojo could not provide after a pretty good year...

in addition to the D and a legit coach who keeps on beating the Pats, next year they have the most cap space,plus they are maturing (they had a ton of picks over past two years) and would likely be in the running for a Watson trade (he makes them a contender, cool city, great weather, no state tax, etc)...

what would have expected if it was done to Brady or Josh ?
