  1. No big deal against the Jets. I trust whoever's making the call here.

     

    The secondary minus Tre could handle Aaron Rodgers; there's a decent chance they can stop a BackStreet Boy throwing a football.

    Everyone can kill me later for this.  Went fishing this afternoon and caught 4 bass on this beautiful day.  So I am going to say Allen has 4 TD's.  Not gonna predict the score though.  Just that Allen will have 4 TDs.

    Sorry, but your dream interpretation skills are lacking. Catching four bass... bass.... bass... Bass... means four fields goals!

     

    But, yes, 4 TDs may happen though I would not be shocked to see at least one run in.

  3. Nyheim's attitude is optimal: buy into the coach and the concepts and super stoked to be part of a high-powered offense. "My goal is to help this team win a championship, even if that's not touching the ball at all." What an attitude.


    Well spoken and eager and talented. Really glad he's a BIll. I'm betting he far outperforms the expectations based on trade value.

  4. In a passing league, you obviously want to allocate a good chunk of the limited capital to the D line but how much more major money should go to the LB corps?

    First, let's split the difference and say Edmunds is good (not bad or even mediocre) but good to very good.

     

    How much is a good to very good MLB worth in a passing league when you have to pay a franchise QB? 

    What's the cap not just on Tremaine, but the positional value? I'm just ballparking, but when you have to pay Josh, the men who keep him upright and catch his passes, I think MLB might have a cap of maybe, what $12-$14 million tops?

    What do others think? Question 2 is: will Tremaine settle for what you think the cap on the position of MLB is worth? We've seen many a Bill leave for greener ($) pastures.

    Who was more painful to watch get the ball, Tolbert or Moss? I still say Tolbert

    Tolbert at least the excuse of being 243 pounds. Moss is just 205 pounds. There's some misconception (maybe because of his "business decisions" quote that was like a great tagline for a bad movie) that Moss is some bruiser or the "thunder" to someone's lightning. He isn't. He's 205 pounds, yes, 205 pounds and slow and that's about it.

    If you're 205 pounds as a back, you better have wheels. Or a bus ticket.

  6. Further into the video... hearing Von talk about how as a small boy he heard his father make a high-pitched sound watching a football game — and how he, Von, then wanted to make people feel that joy. Amazing. And how he loves to beat other grown men into submission...

     

    This man is the best amalgam of zen and competitive fire I've ever seen. Josh is cool and a great dude, but Von is the embodiment of the greatest football spirit I've ever seen.

  7. Awesome that his goal is to bring a SuperBowl to Buffalo, not chase stats or merely get to the Super Bowl but to win it. Also awesome that he wants to play at an elite level for 19 or 20 years. Maybe he'll play at a high level beyond the first couple years of this contract. I totally didn't think that before but now I think if any defensive end can play at a very high level in his mid 30s, it's Von. What a guy. This team is blessed to have him and I bet Rousseau is 100% on board with that.

  8. Well, considering we have he second-highest points per game in the league, we must get all those points with the help of a high-scoring run game. 


    Wait, no? Well, then Josh Allen's rushing TDs have to be the reason. He has... oh, 2 rushing TDs so far.

     

    Don't sweat it. Yes, Diggs is elite and no other pass catcher on this team consistently is  (Davis is, at times) but we are doing great and I'm confident that if Diggs goes out for a couple games that Davis, Shakir, Knox and a couple very good pass-catching backs can still help us pile up the points.  Remember, when the lights were shining the brightest and the pressure was the highest, Davis set a playoff record. He's been inconsistent but he'll be fine.

    And not many teams can lose their number one WR and still be firing at the same pace. We'll are fine and will be ok.  Would I love getting OBJ, sure? Will we still be the best team without him? Yes.

  9. The Packer's game plan was to concede defeat, be very happy that Josh threw 2 uncharacteristic picks, and to run the ball late in the game to make a humiliating loss less humiliating. 

     

    Running from the get-go, even in a 0-0 game is not a game plan against the Bills. Unless you have an all-world offense, you have to hope and pray for some bad turnovers from the Bills and a pile of luck just to keep the Bills from crushing you.

  10. My expectation is that the players play a smart and focused game with full effort and intelligence. If they do that and still lose, I'll be sad but I'm ok with that. I don't think the team met that expectation, especially the offense and Josh, the second half.

     

    But it won't keep me up at night. We got the win. My expectation is that the coaching staff and players, especially Josh, learn from the mistakes and I believe they will.
