Wouldn't surprise me at all. It also wouldn't surprise me if Allen demands a trade out of here once he realizes this front office isn't committed to helping him. After the pounding he just took with nobody there to help, that has to grind his gears.

8 sacks is simply unacceptable and that doesn't even factor in the other plays Allen took hits on. Before this game, Allen himself mentioned how he got "beat up" in the Houston game last season. I guess Brady decided to draw up an encore performance. Games like that are how 17 gets injured and has his career shortened.

Good coaching can do wonders. Aaron Kromer is known for getting the most out of the guys he has even if they aren't all super talented. He gets those five to play good together as a unit and that's all you can hope for.

Let me show you my separation skills.

If Stafford decides to play another 2 seasons or so after this one as he hinted this past offseason, that's also another option for them. I've said that if the Bills are stuck in no man's land for a few years between legit SB contender and mediocre, is Josh Allen content to be on a team that he knows is never going to be good enough to win a championship? I don't know if this FO would ever trade him or if Josh would ever decide he wants to be traded, but at some point Josh is going to have to make that decision.

Yeah, great OL depth isn't something a lot of teams think about first, but having at least a couple guys that can immediately step in and keep the offense rolling at close to normal is huge. If Spencer Brown is going to IR, that's a big loss for the Bills OL, but Ryan Van Demark, while obviously not the same, can hold his own.

They go hand in hand. Our OL appears to have regressed because our WR room has regressed. Our receivers weren't great last year by any stretch of the imagination, but they were head and shoulders better than this season. At least in the scramble drill, Josh was able to find open guys and there was an actual effort to get open. Combine that with predicable play calling, and it's a recipe for disaster.

Landon Jackson. Couldn't get a gameday jersey then got hurt almost immediately after he did. He didn't look so good in camp or in the preseason games he played in either. He's a project for sure.

Next man up. We'll see how good (or not so good) their depth is on the OL. Those are actually pretty good situations, not that any injury is great, but if neither require surgery, there shouldn't be any long term effects once they heal up.

To be fair, that would mean we miss out on drafting guys like DeWayne Carter & Edefuan Ulofoshio.

And not a lot of glaring holes to fill on that roster. Will be interesting to see if they attempt to draft Stafford's replacement this year, but with this draft class looking thin at QB, they might wait another year.

Watching Benford go down in the AFCCG and Elam coming in was like watching our SB chances go up in smoke. I had little faith we'd win that game with Elam playing. Funny how it took Dallas so long to figure out what we already knew.

I'm so frustrated with this front office right now, I'm honestly conflicted if I even want to see them in the playoffs because a playoff birth probably means business as usual and not much is going to change in the offseason. I just don't see a deep playoff run and a ring is a pipe dream even if we miraculously got to the SB.

That's the drawback of having someone like Josh. He covers up so many warts, it can create a false sense of security. The problem has always been there and it has just gotten worse, but the play of the Alien got people to buy into the nonsense the front office was peddling that this team could win a championship with receivers who look as pathetic as they did on Thursday.

Remember back when Diggs was here and all we were asking for was a steady WR2 to complement Diggs and take some attention away from him? Now, Beane has somehow managed to convince a good portion of this fan base we didn't even really need a competent WR2 even though he was contemplating parting ways with a first round pick mid-season, which to me is an admission he knows he's wrong. I'd be more worried about making the playoffs at this point. Josh Allen is only taking this team so far and the lack of talent on this roster has reached critical mass. Josh simple can't do enough to hide it anymore.
