I fear he may be letting his "agent" do the talking: https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/trevon-diggs-has-more-to-say-about-stefon-diggs-josh-allen-and-the-bills.

Look at where Brady went to college and where he got his coaching start: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/coaches/BradJo0.htm.

It’s also stupid.

Why the F is Shakir returning that? Wtf??? And of course it leads to an injury.

Mostert has a few fumbles but McDaniel moves on to the next play because he realizes fumbles are an occupational hazard. Cook fumbles for the first time this season and Belichick-like, McDermott thinks it’s wiser to rule out of fear and punish talented players if the errors are fumbles as opposed to dropped passes.

Fair point, but there is so much parity that you just never know.

Fair enough! Meanwhile, I hope he reaches his incentives tonight!

Meh. Ed Oliver is hardly Cicero, so I don't expect much on the public speaking front. I don't take any of this stuff seriously. He wants to make money and he wants to sack quarterbacks. All ok with me.

Why would anyone have an issue with Ed Oliver wanting to reach an incentive by actually getting more sacks? That seems like the most straightforwardly positive-for-the-team individual incentive I can think of. If he gets sacks, the opponent is likely to score fewer points.

They’re both pretty good players. The Bills used up 4 years of a running back and let him move on, which all smart teams do. Cook is pretty good too. It’s all fine. Motor was terrific today, and I was quite happy for him. He seems like a good team player and a good person.

My big takeaway today : this league is so week-to-week and there is SO much parity.

Nice with the crude personal insults! I am truly impressed! I am even more impressed by the fact that you are accusing me of this despite my never having said one positive thing about Belichick. I was simply pointing out that the record you claimed for 2008 was not in fact correct given the faulty way the NFL accounts for QB wins. I meant nothing more and nothing less. More seriously, calling people d**k riders is extraordinarily juvenile. Not cool.

I did read what you wrote. You said he went 10-5 that season, and I presumed you were using the ridiculous NFL qb victory accounting system that gives a qb victory to matt cassel in the Bills’ 2014 opener because they ran a trick play where tyrod taylor split wide. Cassel didn’t play another play. Anyway, using common sense accounting, he went 11-5 sans Brady in 2008.

11-5 in 2008. Brady went out of that game in the first quarter; cassel played the vast majority of the game.

They need a qb, full stop. Do NOT overthink this. That’s what bad teams do.

maye, williams, penix, and nix are all better prospects than jones.

Assuming you guys have a high pick, you pretty much HAVE to take a QB. It'd be crazy not to. It's a good QB draft, and if they're top five, they'll have a shot at one.

outside of that bills game, he has looked like this all season. Any internal pressure and he starts looking down to either run or take a sack (usually the latter). He crumbles. He is a bad qb.

Mac Jones is TERRIBLE — a sack magnet. He just crumbles in the pocket. How did the Bills freaking lose to THIS offense??

The Bills’ o-line talent isn’t that bad and is in all likelihood better than average at the moment. They have no injuries, and lines across the league are in way worse shape because of injuries/mediocrity.

This is really good; thanks! I love his points about the lack of FGs and how horrible the run scheme is.

I don’t think he’s injury prone; he’s not getting soft tissue injuries. The foot issue resulted from a person over 300 pounds landing/stepping on his foot. I think everyone gets injured when something like that happens. Just bad luck. But yeah, it’s all very frustrating.

Foot this time. Broken bone, apparently.
