  1. I don't think many here have said the McDermott is responsible for Josh's success, exactly, but the team's culture shift, and the defensive success. Who has said McDermott made Josh a great QB? The question many debate is this: Are the Bills better off with a proven offensive coach who can lead not just the team but Allen — and thus preclude the revolving door of OCs we will have if we sustain offensive success which will lead to OCs getting head coach jobs. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that's the more prevalent question here. I'm sure some head coaches could do a better job with Allen. That may or may not come at the expense of our "culture" and defensive success. If we have an early and embarrassing playoff exit this year, I would not cry if we moved in another coaching direction though I doubt that would happen this offseason as Terry trusts McDermott and may give him a longer leash than many, or even most, will like.
  2. It feels like with Gabe that if you take away the big plays, there's not enough of the steady chain-moving 6 to 10-yard (air yards) plays that we need. From my number 2, I'll take consistently moving the chains over one or two big plays a game but not much else. I think Davis has a very limited route tree and it's hurting our consistency.
  3. I like AJ's play so far but he is, as Ethan in Cleveland has said, still a backup. We are tight against the cap and, depending on how we draft, may have to sign in free agency... #2 WR Maybe one starting safety as Hyde will be a FA (remember, Rapp is on a one-year deal) resign Daquan Jones or a replacement Maybe an RT Maybe a starting cornerback That won't be cheap. In a perfect cap world we keep AJ but backup defensive end is not a top priority compared with those starting positions.
  4. Way overpaid. They need more deals like Floyd, and fewer like Knox.
  5. Pretty pleased with the D, especially the LBs. Yes, Barkley ripped off a couple big runs late but all in all, they played well Still don't believe in Davis as a legit number 2; too much is on the shoulders of Diggs and no one else.
  6. He's just sad because he knows he's going to lose.
  7. I think the scrum may be good for the mindset of the offense.
  8. Good teams make adjustments. We saw it against us for 17 years.
  9. When was the last time we had a back like Murray?
  10. I like this Cook/Murray tandem.
  11. Williams looking good. I know it's the Giants but he's a rookie. Feeling better about our linebacking corps going forward.
  12. Love it!!!! What a D stop!!!
  13. Williams has been doing a nice job replacing Milano. No, he's not the same player but so far, is doing a good job.
  14. This reminds me (I hope) of the Bills-Pats games during the drought: the lesser team plays better to start, but the score is close and in the end the better team prevails. I'm hoping we see a much better Bills offense after half time.
  15. Whatever we picked up in London, it's contagious with all these G-Men going down.
  16. D looking good. I think Williams and Bernard so far are doing well. Hope it continues.
  17. AJ! The stretched-out Jimmy Kimmel strikes again!
  18. Floyd is so good. What a great-value pickup by Beane.
  19. Despite the drop and fall, Josh looks poised and is stepping up in pocket.
  20. Cam's absolute OWNERSHIP of this record (most rushing TDs by a QB) is fascinating to me. Cam has 74% more rushing TDs than the number two all-time QB, Steve Young. 74% more than the number-two guy on that list (soon to be rewritten by Josh, however, at least ownership of the two spot). Yet Cam will not make the Hall of Fame. And I'm not suggesting he should, either. Fascinating that a QB could absolutely crush the competition in a fairly substantial stat and still not have much of a legacy. Again, I'm NOT saying Cam should be HOF worthy or have a great legacy, but this is a mind-blowing stat, to me, at least. If Cam showed some heart in his SB appearance, I think he would be remembered in a fairly better light. But he will be remembered as soft when it matters, and not a great passer.
  21. From NFL.com's Week 6 Bold Predictions: Josh Allen posts eight touchdowns against the Giants, breaking the NFL record for most scores in a single game. The current league record stands at seven TDs, with four quarterbacks hitting that number since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger: Drew Brees (Week 8, 2015), Nick Foles (Week 9, 2013), Peyton Manning (Week 1, 2013) and Mark Rypien (Week 11, 1991). https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-week-6-bold-predictions-josh-allen-bills-d-set-records-c-j-stroud-finally-th
