From the Dunne piece. This vibed with me from something noticed some years back... "Against elite quarterbacks"...? Who have they got that's going to be better than 17? Why would you sacrifice your greatest roster advantage to just be a speed bump to the other side's roster advantage? Conscious or unconscious, is it because you're a defensive coach and you worry deep down that you're going to be judged by the performance of your defense and seek to protect them? It sure looked that way, empirically. It's looking through the wrong end of the telescope, protecting your weakness by sacrificing your best strength. The attitude will be to attack, and why not? Making a mistake on defense just gives the ball back to 17 - but in risking that, also make a few more big plays a game that get stops too. The Bills offense has been a juggernaut, give them the damn ball. Or as Brady put it, paraphrasing, we're not going to worry so much about changing what we do to play a given opponent, they have to worry about playing the Buffalo Bills.

Good thing they got QB settled

Right up until you double dribbled.

Couple of Sabres goals Sunday Pasternak was blowing the zone and cheating for offense. He freelanced and blew his defense coverage on Tuch’s GWG Thursday. His cherry picking helps the Sabres more than hurts them. -3 with mainly garbage time points. Don’t even bother taking out that guy, or McAvoy, they’re getting caved between the whistles.

You know who also ended up being the guy from two years ago was Deone Walker.

Oh there's going to be a very easy metric for that one - just compare him to Gabe Jacas twice a year.
