Two points to make on this topic. 1. Injuries have increased because the number of precautions have increased. There was no concussion protocol back in the 90s and the game was more violent back then. How many players probably had concussions and just played through them without ever reporting anything? A lot of players in general were just meaner back in the day and didn't really care about their own well being or others. They just went out there to annihilate people. 2. The league could go back to making players wearing slightly bulkier pads again to slow the game down a bit and maybe lessen some injuries that way. My opinion is players are getting injured at the same rate as they always have, just the amount of 'reported injuries' have gone up.

Bills rush defense is bottom of the league too allowing 5.1yds per carry. The Bengals really have a free choice of how they want to move the ball down the field against our D. Burrow carved us up last year and I don't expect anything different this time around. The only question mark for me is if our offense can keep pace this time around or not.

In the world of football, where the plays are grand, There's a lesson to learn, in this sporty land. It's about a coach, Ken Dorsey by name, And a play he called once, in a moment of fame. "Ken Dorsey," they said, "you're a football sage, But this one play call, it's like a page, From the book of strange choices, a puzzling decision, A Shotgun Draw Play, it lacks football precision." It happened on second and goal, from the one-yard line, A chance to score points, a moment so fine. But the call was quite curious, to everyone's surprise, A Shotgun Draw Play, with wide-open eyes. The quarterback backed up, the snap in his hand, The defense advanced, like a shifting sand. The running back took it, tried to make a dash, But the defenders swarmed, like a lightning flash. "Ken Dorsey," they shouted, "what did you do? A Shotgun Draw Play from the one-yard, it's true. You've got to be careful, make choices that fit, In this game of inches, where touchdowns are lit." So let this be a lesson to coaches, you see, In the world of football, for you and for me. A Shotgun Draw Play, from the one-yard line? It's a choice that may not end as divine. Stick to the basics, keep it simple and true, And your team will succeed, that's what they'll do. In football, as in life, the lesson is clear, Don't make strange decisions, let your choices steer.

Looked to me that while Evans did get a hand on Poyer it was more a result of Taron Johnson running into him and tripping him.

Cade Otton got absolutely mugged there by Benford and Rapp. Shoulda been a flag.

I think Allen was just trying to draw the D Offside before the end and it did look like one of them jumped so Morse snapped it and Josh expected a free play. No flag was thrown though.

Can we put Knox on the trade block please? Dorsey is going to force him back into the rotation once he is healthy and our production will fall off again.

Bills must hold a record for giving teams their longest run of the season.

TB with more plays in half a season than Tremaine has in his career so far.

I know this isn't true because we only deal with the Panthers and Giants

Josh Norman

I'm really not ready to give up on Elam although clearly McDermott is. He didn't have a bad rookie season. How is it possible that he has regressed so much over the course of a year? None of it makes any sense.

I blame the Bills offensive woes on the fact that Josh dropped his pre game puking ritual 🤮

I prefer this Josh Allen Over this one

On paper of course it's smarter to defer, but we're dealing with a team that seemingly has a problem of falling emotionally flat during games. I'm hypothesizing that maybe letting the opposing score on opening possessions and getting behind early is the source of it. I'm just saying maybe having our team get out ahead first is a better morale boost and we've always been better and playing from in front in the Josh Allen era.

Both the Bengals games from last season stick out to me for this reason. The Bills gave the ball to them to start both games and they just shredded their way right down the field for opening TDs. The Bills immediately looked deflated in both instances and never recovered.

I'm sick of hearing crap about having the opportunity to double dip at half. The Raiders game aside, the Bills have shown to be pretty abysmal at playing from behind and if I remember from last year, the Bills had an extremely high scoring percentage on first possession drives. Why not just always receive the Ball, get that early lead and make the other team play catch up. Once the Bills get down, they seem to get in their own heads and lose all their juice. This is just one of the many little annoyances I've had about this season so far.

It would be a very Billsy move to go after another RB, give up draft picks and pay him 12 million per year and then give him 5 touches a game. Until this offense and Dorsey figure out an identity for itself, I kinda doubt they can utilize any of their skill players efficiently. I personally would rather us just get back to our late 2021 offense which didn't run at all outside of #17 and was nearly unstoppable until 13 seconds happened.

NFL Officiating this year has been the worst I've ever witnessed across the entire league. I'd like to give them all a week off so I can watch a game and actually enjoy it.

Waiting for news of Ken Dorsey wrist surgery

Sometimes chaos is better than whatever the garbage status quo is.

Knox currently has negative value for the Bills though as hes taking targets away frommKincaid

McClappy blitzing all game long leaving his dbs on an island and zero sacks to show for it.

Already feels that way this season. Ive never seen so many flags thrown before.
