The Miami game is super important — divisional and in-conference.

Perspective Matters: The Offense Is Producing
dave mcbride replied to Magox's topic in The Stadium Wall
Does a healthy Josh Palmer who is more integrated into the offense (and hence receiving more targets) move the needle for you? I ask because his separation stats are pretty good: https://sports.yahoo.com/article/7-things-know-buffalo-bills-164148184.html Going to echo others here, but that Baltimore team that the Bills faced was elite. They weren't by games 4-5 because of a ridiculous number of injuries to key players, but that was an impressive win. I actually expect them to win the AFC North at the end of the day. They still have two games vs Pittsburgh, so they control their own fate. -

KC's defense is extremely good, NE's defense is extremely good, and Carolina's is better than average. Yet the Bills put up over 400 yards vs both Carolina and KC. They put up 363 vs. NE. Finally, in the first game of the season, Baltimore was unquestionably elite because they were healthy (plus they had the best defense in the league by far the second half of last season). The Bills shredded them - 497 yards and 41 points. -
Sauce Gardner to the Colts for 2 1st round picks (and AD Mitchell)

I thought and still think the Bills would have demolished the Bengals that year. It would have been in Buffalo, the weather would have been bad, and the Bengals o-line that years was TERRIBLE. They had fluky victories over both TN and the Chiefs, and Mahomes had the yips in that game. Worst game he ever played despite building a huge lead early. Also, the Bills' offense was freaking unstoppable at that point. I think they would have handled the Rams easily too, as they did their very next game in the 2022 season opener. -

Corey Coleman is a true deep cut.

Curtis samuel ran a 4.31 at the combine. After all the leg ailments, getting older, and the punishment that comes with being in the league for 7 years, I suspect his 40 time is a good bit slower these days.

It's a time value of money sort of thing. The Seahawks are legit and in it to win it this year, not two years down the road. 100 percent.

They're in win-now mode.

Ensuring the Bills crush them later in the season? That's all I got!

No one brings this up, but he is a great returner too. Was first team all-pro as a returner a couple of years ago.

Around the NFL - November 2 - Other games
dave mcbride replied to Ridgewaycynic2013's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's really obvious - blow up the screen and look at the safety in the upper left hand corner of your screen. He's clearly clapping vigorously, but honestly I don't think he's trying to cheat. I think he may simply trying to get the attention of one of the other DBs to get aligned. The guy who created this tweet didn't look very hard! -

We really want the Cowboys to win tonight, right? I'm hoping AZ turns into sellers. They really have no chance anyway given that division, but a loss will fully cement that perception internally, I suspect. Calais Campbell is someone I'd love to get. I know some (@GunnerBill) want Budda Baker too, although I guess I'm not as concerned with the safety position now that Bishop is turning into the player I thought he could become. -
Are McBeane secretly creating an elite offense?
dave mcbride replied to BullBuchanan's topic in The Stadium Wall
When they signed Bosa, I immediately recalled a couple of games earlier in his career where he was an absolute beast vs Mahomes and the o-line. I just checked, and he a bunch of games with sacks and TFLs plus a forced fumble or two. Of course, being the Chargers, they tended to lose those close games in brutal fashion, including multiple single score losses and a couple in OT. But they didn't lose because of Bosa, who KC really struggled to handle. Anyway, I am guessing that Beane noticed the same.
