Coach Tuesday

Diggs puts defenders on skates.

Ted Danson is a national treasure and I will fight you to the death if you disagree.

Rookie kicker

Wow

This is what happens. Allen gets no help from his line or receivers and starts panicking and his mind goes too fast and his mechanics go to pot. We have seen this game.

I have never been ever hated a punter this much - I really despise Bojo with a deep passion.

Allen has no chance in this game.

I don’t see how Allen has any confidence left in 88. His career in Buffalo is likely over.

Knox is such a fraud.

What did they expect from their o-line in this game? Strategy seems odd...

This thread seems to have become personal for you.

Don’t know about anyone else but I am fired up. This season has been a joy.

This is really the nub of it - Beane’s job gets much tougher starting now. Assuming he extends Allen within 18 months, for the next 10-15 years he’ll have to recycle the rest of the roster and play games with the cap. THAT is where good GMs distinguish themselves. Can’t afford to miss on so many draft picks and free agents when cap room becomes incredibly scarce which it is about to do. And that’s why skepticism is warranted, while Beane hit on the most important position he will, as you said, have to become more efficient with his roster decisions if they’re going to achieve sustained success. And oh by the way he’ll have to do that while losing coaches and scouts to promotions elsewhere. His journey is just beginning. That said - extending him was the right move, and it doesn’t count under the cap so what do I care? The Pegulas have shown that they’ll eat a front office salary if expectations aren’t met.

Yup - you knew Josh was “locked in” when he started pointing out penalties mid-play with the ball still in his hand!

Watched the play again. Corner bit on the double move.

The Jets’ coaches are so incompetent that if they really were tanking, they’d win.

Greggo has a folder that says that’s what you do.

Again, they weren’t tanking. They drove downfield for the go-ahead.

Nope. Gregg blitzed on every fourth down and got burned each time. The fact that he has a job is so ... American.

I cannot believe how stupid and arrogant the Jets are. What a ridiculous combination, Gase and Greggo. Maddeningly dumb and incompetent and arrogant.

Longtime Green Bay sports writer and draft enthusiast Bob McGuinn has been writing articles for the Athletic deep-diving into the draft history of certain players. I’ve been reading each one of them and they’re fascinating. This week’s is about Bruce, highly recommend it. Still the best athlete I’ve ever rooted for. I don’t know that the Bills will ever have someone so dominant again. He stands alone. https://theathletic.com/2230162/2020/12/04/bruce-smith-bills-hall-of-fame/?source=user_shared_article “It came down basically to Ray Childress or Bruce Smith,” Polian said. “I remember the discussion very clearly. The question was, what would (Smith) become versus what would Childress become? There was no such word as ceiling in those days. But to apply today’s verbiage to it, Norm’s position was, Childress has a ceiling. He’s not nearly as talented as Bruce, particularly as a rusher. “There was no question that Bruce was the talent that, particularly, Norm had seen. Norm said Bruce would grow up and mature, that he had a much better chance to be a game-changer over time than Ray does. Childress had such a high motor and was in such great shape. Norm’s position was, his talent is so overwhelming, we can work with the other part of it. Rare talent is what you should take. Norm’s wisdom, if you will, in recognizing that this overwhelming talent existed in Bruce’s body correctly carried the day even though Ray had a great career.” ALSO: “It got so he would come back in April and come into my office and say, ‘Do my fat,’” said Jones, who spent 20 years in Buffalo, eight years in Chicago and now is in his third season with Indianapolis. “I’d say to him, ‘Bruce, how ‘bout a hi? Or a how are ya?’ It was always, ‘Do my fat.’ If he wasn’t an 8 on the caliper, he’d be upset. At 265, if you can get a guy in at 13 percent or 14 percent, you’re happy. There’s Bruce hanging out at 8 percent or 9 percent. We see that more and more today than we ever saw before because of nutrition, education, performance coaches. But Bruce Smith was ahead of his time.”

Correct he was flagged. It was just a great play by Bosa and a botched option read by Josh but honestly, you’re in the red zone, call the comfort plays Dabs.

Yes sorry I mean handoff/keeper option. RPO works well in this offense.

Honestly they should drop the RPO from the playbook. Allen almost always keeps so it's not fooling anyone. And he doesn't run it well or with confidence in any event.

Dawkins has been playing in the same spot basically his whole career. He just got a monster extension. There is no excuse for what he put out there against LAC. Granted Bosa is an All Pro but Dawkins’ technique in pass pro was utter garbage. He’s been a solid player this year but he needs to find “playoff-level consistency” in his game. Can’t be having total stinkers like that.
