He's not wrong about the talent on the offensive side of the ball - the OL and skill players - not being comparable at all to the other remaining teams in the playoffs. When he starts going off on how there's no (this player that player) on defense, I think he's missing that we lost Von Miller to injury and that we were playing without DaQuan Jones who has been key for us, and with Oliver and Phillips hampered.

Please don't confuse lack of expressing an opinion as "unity" with an opinion being expressed. A lot of sane and sensible posters normally avoid TBD for 24-48 hrs after a loss and even longer after a playoff loss. So the opinions expressed may have merit, the opinions expressed may not have merit, but they don't represent "unity". The Bills decided, after last year's playoff loss, that they needed to rebuild their DL, from the interior out. The two best players of the 4 they added didn't play, and 2 more were playing hurt. We spent 1/5 of the game with Jaquan Johnson and Dean Marlowe as our safeties and half the game with Poyer and Jaquan Johnson. We know Poyer has been playing on a torn meniscus. Contrary to popular opinion, we CAN keep doing this or worse - and one of the ways to do that is to succumb to knee-jerk "fire everyone" itis. There will be major changes among the players, because we can't afford to keep everyone.

Somehow seems to fit post Divisional loss move Lyrics

They got outcoached in the Eagles game. IMO. Your mileage may vary, that’s fine

I’m not sure what this means. What do you mean by it? Hopefully we are not confusing people choosing to not weigh in on a knee-jerk postgame thread as “no support” That’s how it always is, Josh said it years ago, win and you’re awesome, lose and you suck and we should fire all the coaches.

Giants got blown out on both sides of the ball yesterday. Can say they don’t have the horses yet, but they appear to have been outcoached

Thanks! Yeah, Diggs needs to take a Chill Pill and understand that he isn’t necessarily open when the QB has to throw the ball

This, IMO. If you’re truly my slime, my friend, you’re there for the bad times, you don’t bail

Assume the change above is what you meant Yeah, it’s totally fair to praise the game’s premier players, and I can even live with them not doing wrong. But when he is praising the great play of stumbling up the middle and dieting the ball by Mahomes, or saying of a good, rising player on the opposing team “we’ve seen Mahomes do that so many times”, etc etc it’s rising to the level of Parody. At least refrain from praising a crap play and give the opponent their propers while they’re on the field.

I’m actually not sure about the “inside track”. We have Mike Shula, who was Dorsey’s boss in Carolina and OC under Shurmur for Daniel Jones rookie year, where he looked competent. Bills previously proposed that moratorium and were shot down. Joe Brady has already been an OC with the Panthers and was fired mid-season, fair or unfair. If he wants to climb the ladder, he needs to make sure that this time he isn’t stepping onto a rotten rung - ask Daboll what OC gigs with bad Browns, Dolphins, and KC teams did for his career trajectory.

Hyde. Bring him back too. And while we’re using that Heal spell on both teams, DaQuan Jones and BigJ9797

Pretty sure that’s a coat I’ve seen Hamlin wear

I had that thought myself. Both Oliver and Phillips can play 1T (don’t like to, but can) They might spend some time there with Rousseau or Basham rotating inside

One of them. Jones and Settle are the 1TDT, Oliver and Phillips the 3TDT. Of the two (Settle and Jones) Jones is the bigger stud and has been getting 70% of the snaps. In theory, Jordan Phillips is HUGE and should be able to play 1TDT but it’s not his thing. We have also used Oliver at 1T last season but it limits his best skill. Both Oliver and especially Jordan Phillips are playing through injury - Oliver hasn’t been on the report for weeks but he’s playing with a brace on. 5 DE is new, will be interesting to see what Frazier has in mind there.

DaQuan Jones inactive is huge for us. 5 active DE is unusual

I like this response:

Is this the actual Bills locker room or some kind of "NFL Experience" thing? The pants look ridiculously short and I thought the Bills lockers had a different configuration.

I'm fan enough to soak up all the footage, but this guy Brasky is just making up words to match with it when he tweets it out. Is it just me, or does he set off the metal detector and just keep going while the security guards go on about their business?

Is he really? In past years, I've appreciated his web site "Sharp Football Stats" although he isn't keeping it up this season. I'd mock him for his absurd Conspiracy Theory take about the NFL selling neutral site tickets - as though the Bengals, KC, and Buffalo weren't also selling Championship game tickets.

Go Bills! Go Bills Mafia!

You know in Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book where Mowgli rides a Buffalo to stomp Tiger Shere Khan flat? Yeah, That.

Those were two of the playcalls that got to me also. Then him going off about how Mahomes is the only QB who can throw without stepping into it off his back foot, Aaron Rodgers says "hi" and Josh Allen says "learned it from Rodgers"

You say that like there's something wrong with coffee. I drink it a latte.

One of Brother Bill's better efforts
