Because...?

Darnold is morphing again...

I think there was a breakdown besides having only a linebacker/edge in the general area. Wilson is their number one receiver...

Incredibly as poor as Rodgers is playing, he's outplaying Sam Darnold.

I've been saying that Elam should be used in some mixed looks... they should let him try traveling in a zone context. I'm also pretty sure that Jamarcus Ingram would do a better job as Taron's backup than Cam Lewis is doing. I'm pretty done with the Cam Lewis experiment.

He's an excellent player. Proving it this year after breaking out last year. Excited for a more playing time for Javon Solomon now that Von's on suspension. Gold Hoping for an appearance from @Jimmy Spagnola Defintely getting reduced. Rodgers is more immobile than Kirk Cousins. Like Brady at the end, he doesn't have the level of mobility that's needed to succeed in the NFL. If his protection was better he'd have a fighting chance but their O-line appears to be below average. Bad combo.

Bills 31 Texans 23 Isn't every thread? Thank you.

As your attorney I advise you against eating at Popeyes when you're in Buffalo. "As of 2021, Popeyes has 3,705 restaurants,[2] which are located in more than 46 states and the District of Columbia, Puerto Rico, and 30 countries worldwide." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Popeyes

To whatever degree this has value, I don't really know but thanks very much for posting this. 👍 Meaning no ill will towards Taylor Rapp but I hope Cole Bishop takes this opportunity and runs with it.

Bates is a great player for sure. I'm wondering if anyone has the "almighty" PFF grades and that sort of stuff.

Doubs: Skipped 2 practices this week because he's unhappy with his usage. Has now been suspended for conduct detrimental to the team. Targets are down this year because of the injury to Jordan Love. In his 2 games with Malik Willis at QB he had 5 total targets. This is the reason his targets are down from last year. In Jordan Love's return he had 8 targets last week against the Vikings. Had 15 targets or 7.5 per game in the 2 games this year that Jordan Love started, almost 2 more targets than his per game average of 5.64 last year. Is protesting in the wake of Christian Watson's injury which would have assured him more targets and usage going forward.

Just checking in to see if anyone knows how Justin Simmons is doing with Atlanta. Thanks.

That's because it quietly got talked about but then didn't take the next step. I wouldn't hold my breath though... Beane has pretty much failed us and Brady has crashed back to reality.

That's what I've been trying to tell people... Cyborg is playing poorly simply to make Josh feel better about his own deteriorating physical skills. Essentially Cyborg is sucking because he's a good teammate.

Appears to me that he's lost a step.

At his best, Mayfield does a very good Drew Brees impersonation. He throws a tight spiral and has a live and accurate arm for a guy his size. Lavonte David is the archetype for the modern day off the ball linebacker and one of the first to move the position away from the "plugger" or "stack and shed" linebacker. He had the athleticism and instincts to defeat the play without having to take on offensive linemen. Although I agree he's a future Hall of Famer, he's not Tampa Bay's greatest weakside linebacker... that distinction still belongs to Hall of Famer Derrick Brooks (14 seasons, 11 Pro Bowls, 5 time First-Team All Pro, Defensive POTY).

Then what happened? And how does that make you feel?

As a football player, maybe. As a runner, no way... not even close.

As usual, lots of overreaction. I would say the Bills were a bit out-coached in this one. In retrospect I think they should have crowded the box and dared Baltimore to pass. In fairness the Bills were relying on 2 backup LBs and a backup nickel back who all struggled. Cam Lewis is a huge step down from Taron and he whiffed on a few big plays. Also the Bills are weak at safety and I’m glad Rapp was injured and that the Cole Bishop era has begun. Also in fairness to the Bills, Baltimore is still rolling out their Lamar/Henry offense. There’s not much video except 3 games and that offense is still evolving and adding wrinkles. The Bills will be fine and in fact teams often grow more after losses than after wins. We’ll probably see these guys in December. He who laughs last laughs best.

3-1 so far... hoping for 4-1...

Nix is 4 years older than Tremaine Edmunds.

Rams +3 Vikes +2.5 DC +3.5 Raiders +2.5 Bills +2.5

Nice to see Bills draftee Nick Broeker is on an NFL roster. The fact he didn't make our roster is a testament to the Bills young talent in that room. Of course Houston will return to full health just in time for our game against them. On tossup games straight up I have Atlanta over New Orleans, Rans over Chicago, Vikes over Green Bay, Philly over TB, Cinci over Carolina, DC over Arizona, and Raiders over Cleveland... I'm not particularly good at picking NFL games so don't put any weight on these picks.
