Coach Tuesday

It’s totally sliced open! That one is sliced in the back, but the one he had on today had two cuts in the front. Unreal!

Foster can’t track the ball in the air and I predict he’s out of the league soon. This was an issue last preseason which is why they cut him but somehow he came back and strung a bunch of games together where he could suddenly track the football. Now it’s 2019 and once again he cannot track the ball. Some athletes just don’t have football skills.

Too many fumbles tho - what is up with that

Gore aged before our eyes today. Either that or he needs different cleats (I’m serious).

Dawkins?

1) I know there aren’t 32 people in the world who can play quarterback in the NFL in a competent manner - there are probably about 20. But there must be more than 32 people, and probably close to hundreds, who can punt the ball competently. Why won’t we just go get one? Why is Bojo allowed to shank 1-2 kicks per game? Can we please find a g- d- punter? 2) I may be wrong about this, I just report what I see. And what I thought I saw, pretty clearly, were two vertical slits cut into Rob Ryan’s sweatshirt so that he could fit himself into it. Can anyone else verify this? It’s pretty much the most important thing in my life at this particular minute. Thanks in advance. Go Bills - nice to be 6-2. Some tough games coming up, keep the momentum going. And find a freaking punter, please.

He didn’t play many snaps. Not sure why you’re predicting a decline... they clearly were going with a heavy front.

Oh boy Jordan - that looked like a great white shark attacking a seal...

I’m fine with firing all the coaches.

Gore is a corpse today by the way. I’m sorry but he looks washed.

WHY DID FOSTER GO DOWN

I know it’s extreme to fire an otherwise ok head coach because he refuses to get special teams fixed and refuses to bring in a real punter - but I’m close to being there today.

Having inactives makes zero sense to me.

Sap a @:$;&/@ tree, Bandit! It’s game day, step the @;$&:@/ up! Speaking of which - today is the day. Time for Josh Allen to take over a game. We’ve been waiting and I want to see it today. It’s damn time.

He’s washed

It’s a week late honestly.

Those hack scientists and their corrupt liberal agendas!

I mean - he had a HISTORICALLY bad group of receivers last year, not sure whether that matters but it's something to consider. This is really his first season with NFL-quality pass catchers. The entire group last year was replacement-level at best.

You can set your watch to the anti-science folks in this thread (and society generally). You ALWAYS know who they are. Always.

Because mental toughness = screaming like a frustrated toddler. Surely anyone with any life experience knows that.

I'm starting to think they should require a license to use the internet.

Humans...

Thanks for doing all of that work Mango. Very interesting breakdown but I'm not yet sure what to make of it. As you've said here and elsewhere, Allen's most useful comp in terms of the type of offense they'd like to run, and the type of overall strategy McD favors (defense first), is Russell Wilson and the Seahawks. IIRC, Wilson's first couple of years featured many, many games where he'd put up something like 15-22 for 225 yards and 2TDs, with 30-50 yards of scrambling. The defense kept those games close in Seattle. But at some point, just like Wilson, there will eventually be games where the D is struggling and Allen needs to win a shootout. To me, a 300 yard game signifies either an anomaly (like JP Losman's bananas game against the Texans where he hit Lee Evans for two 83 yard TDs in one quarter, and which then became a shootout as the Texans stormed back), or, more typically, that the coach and OC trust the QB enough to put the game in their hands - which is more indicative of the point you're making, i.e., that if a QB doesn't have a 300 yard game by about Year 2.5, it probably means their coaches don't trust them very much which probably means they aren't likely to be a long-term starter in the league.

Bad example.

What does this say about that irresponsible previous regime which drafted him? Or the current regime who let him walk so that they could trade down, pass on two potential All Pro QBs, to draft his replacement?
