  1. I hope you’re right. It’s isn’t as much about Brown as much as it is about the situation with Cody Ford. He has been bad in just about every start and Williams hasn’t played that great at Tackle this season either. I’m pretty concerned about this outcome
  2. Even if he is, I don’t think there’s enough time before the game Sunday and given the timing of the game on Thursday that might not even be enough time
  3. I’m very much concerned with both Paye against Dawkins or Williams and then the possibility of DeForest Buckner taking on Cody Ford 🤦‍♂️ Oh my…
  4. I don’t think they can win this game without Brown at RT. Look how badly they struggled against Jacksonville, a much worse defense and a way easier defensive front.
  5. I think that Jauron and Gailey were basically the same coach on different sides of the ball. Both were competent on one side of the ball but completely clueless on the other. I would argue that Jauron and Gailey were poor leaders that couldn’t seem to hire quality assistants.
  6. The point about the run defense definitely is concerning. It makes you wonder if Oliver and Phillips just stay on the field longer. I’m not a fan of Vernon Butler. He isn’t very good
  7. Only a matter of time before he gets a shot as an OC. If Frazier or Daboll or get a HC, I can see them bringing Chad with them. Everyone has good things to say about him
  8. The Jauron hire was sooooo bad. I remember that after the Bills started something like 5-1, Ralph Wilson jumped at the chance to sign him to a contract extension. But immediately after the tram took a nosedive and fans soured on Jauron, so the Bills never publicly acknowledged the extension LOL This is when my frustration with the team started. Every fan knew that Jauron wasn’t competent enough and should be fired, but penny-pincher Ralph didn’t want to eat the cost of his contract. Ugh. Bad ownership.
  9. He’s actually a very good athlete for a CB. It seemed that he needed some work but that there was potential there
  10. Given the Jets secondary he might get a chance to actually play this season
  11. The Bills lose their Wildgoose:
  12. Le’Veon overplayed his hand so badly. It does make you wonder what happened. He went from one of the best running backs in the NFL and a dual threat to an average then below-average RB. It makes you wonder: - Was he a product of Pittsburgh’s offense? - Did the year off from football negatively impact his ability? - Did he just get lazy and complacent after signing a big deal with NYJ? - Did Adam Gase kill his career?
  13. The Bills hate it too. I can’t say I love it, but it doesn’t bother me either. I have gotten a kick out of the videos that circulated the internet in the past
  14. I think there’s still a huge difference between what Beasley brings in the slot versus McKenzie. He might be a step slower since the injury but he knows exactly where to find openings in a defense and usually is reliable. We probably don’t win the game against Miami without Beasley playing as well as he did. I do think he’s much less effective when injured. McKenzie has a lot of potential and I feel the offense could utilize him more but I’m not sure that he could step in and play as many snaps as Cole and be as reliable. The endorsement from McDermott was very strong though. I don’t expect the Bills move on from Beasley but given his contract, the cap, and the contracts for Edmunds and Oliver looking, it’s possible
  15. I am sure there were complication videos circulating YouTube before 2015
  16. The Athletic paid one of its writers to travel to the Bills/Miami game to interview the first fan to go through a table at a Bills game. LOL. He ends up discussing the entire Bills tailgating scene and culture in Buffalo. I think it’s a fun little article that people will enjoy - especially Buffalo transplants. https://theathletic.com/2949782/2021/11/16/its-a-perfect-day-to-smash-a-table-a-journey-into-the-heart-of-bills-fandom/?source=user_shared_article “He pinpoints the date when it happened: Sept. 20, 2015. He shows me a time-stamped video: 11:50 a.m. He knows he’s probably not the first person to ever do it at a Bills game, but he also can’t find any evidence that he’s not. “I shot the musket ball that started the American Revolution,” he grins. The waitress walks over. Jordan orders us 20 medium wings and two Blues, plus a beef on weck to split. He tells the waitress it’s my first time in Buffalo. She smiles. “Welcome,” she says warmly. Then: “You’re not getting any ranch.”
  17. Leslie Frazier spoke about this during his press conference yesterday. It’s on the WGR website. He said that the Bills are mostly a Nickel defense largely because of how good Taron Johnson has been against the run. He said that typically and offense feels confident to run against a nickel defense but thanks to Johnson and our safeties which can come up and make tackles, they’ve been able to keep the extra DB on the field without much of a drop off. He did say the one exception was the game against Tennessee - probably because of Henry. So I think there’s a decent chance we see more 4-3 on Sunday
  18. It shows that the Bills are back to where they were before the Jacksonville loss. Yes the Jets are bad, but the game was a slaughter. I’m not quite sure what you are looking for. Even if the Bills end up beating Indy on Sunday, it’s a win against a 5-5 football team. If they lose, then yeah it will make you question the team.
  19. At one time I remember hoping the Bills signed Nigel as a backup LB. Maybe it was the 2019 season?
  20. Andy Reid = Subway Driver Bill Belichick = Factory Shift Supervisor Brian Flores = Night Club Security Sean McVay = Financial Planner Mike Vrabel = Construction Foreman Frank Reich = Motivational Speaker Urban Meyer = Traveling Salesman Ron Rivera = department Manager of Home Depot
  21. I think Sean McDermott is a dead ringer for a High School Gym Teacher.
  22. I saw the video circulating Twitter last night. Fans are really upset at the lack of effort.
  23. There’s reasons for a lot of these decisions: # 1 - Breida was activated in Week 1 over Zack Moss and didn’t play great. Moss is a tough runner and probably the best RB when it comes to blocking and maybe pass catching. You can argue that they should’ve activated him a few weeks earlier given his speed. We’ll see what he does the rest of the season. #2 - Where would you play Klein? Would you mix him in and take Edmunds off the field? It’s a bad move if that’s the case. Wasn’t a fan of Edmunds but he is having a great year. #3 - This is a valid point. Sanders has played well so it’s not like this was a no brainer. I’d like to see Davis get more reps. #4 - Obada has been active for multiple games this season as hasn’t consistently been as disruptive as he was yesterday. #5 - He’s a punter…not a big deal. He’s doesn’t have the strongest leg. I think they are keeping him because he does a great job as a holder for Bass and they don’t want to mess with that. This one is not a big concern
  24. Any team needs luck to win the Super Bowl
