  1. Yup. And just like with Cam,....if the opposing defense roughs up Josh Allen 5 times and gets flagged 2 times for it, that’s a win for the defense. Allen still feels the pain for those unflagged cheap shots.
  2. 2nd night in a row of high flying NFC prime time action. NOT
  3. Maybe he's doing some unauthorized party-stuff and not sanctioned by the team? Who knows. Kinda gets weird when people air their bad/hurt feelings on social media. I imagine the Bills organization doesn't go out of their way to piss on former players that gave their heart to the team. So something must've gone bad.
  4. The Jets were way physical. No doubt they were the team that was embarrassed last time and wanted to avenge it. I guess Dion Dawkins was the only cheap-shot artist on the field according to NY. I was pissed that Edmunds played two hand touch instead of smacking Darnold after his TD pass on the crazy scramble. At no point did the Bills match the Jets physicality. Trash talking doesn't count.
  5. I can't break down Josh Allen's metrics, but from the eye test, for me... He looks like a better QB than I thought he would. Quite honestly, from all the pre-draft analysis I thought this guy was gonna suck! He's proving that to be wrong. Allen looks like a competent NFL QB to me and that's very promising considering this is his rookie season. No doubt he's had some flub passes, but he's also had several darts right into the hands or chest of his receivers and they get dropped, or called back due to a penalty. His numbers look worse compared to what I've actually seen on the field. His rushing game might not get factored in to his overall rating but it is part of his game and he's picked up a bunch of first downs with his legs.
  6. Oh Thank you for bringing that up. I thought the exact same thing at the time. The Jets are playing physical all day and killing Allen every chance they get. They even crush our kicker. Bills don't lay an extra hit on Darnold all day long. When Edmunds is steamrolling towards Darnold he completely lays off and doesn't finish the play. I guess he is Mr. nice guy? All i can think is that it was 3rd and goal and Edmunds didn't want to get flagged for a late hit. Understandable but jeez, he was close enough to initiate some contact, just not high or driving him into the ground.
  7. I think the point is this...and was made on the radio this morning as well. The receivers are dropping plenty of balls that should be caught. They are almost never making a catch on a poor throw. They rarely if ever bail out Josh Allen with some great catches.
  8. A lot of things would do wonders for Allen and the offense,,,including a better rushing attack. But overall, Josh is fine. He will be solid. I was critical of him being the QB we drafted but he looks good for the most part. If you watched Trubisky and Goff last night they were both crap. It happens to all QBs. They aren't going to have 16 good games and all the QBs need some help from a decent Oline or rushing attack.
  9. Thats a solid take. I pretty much agree w you. I don’t blame him for just letting his natural instincts take over in his rookie season. He’s trying anything to win. Next year hopefully the game slows down and he can read and react to coverage faster. He’s in hero-mode right now and he’s taking a beating for it. If he gets hit on the brain 5 times in a game and the refs call it twice, that’s a win for the defense.
  10. It's been noticeable since preseason and it happens every week. He either takes a wicked head shot in the pocket while getting sacked or just running around back there. Or, he will get his head slammed against the turf after he releases the ball or maybe on an unnecessary roughness play. This type of playing is just not sustainable. His brains will be scrambled by year 2. Not that Darnold is anything to behold but he goes through his progressions quickly and gets the ball out fast. He's not making himself a target. I can't really assess Allen's game going forward until I can tell what kind of passer he will be? He's definitely showing signs of being a decent passer,,,and if the receivers wouldn't drop some easy receptions he would have better numbers. It's his rookie year and hes trying to make plays, I get it. But Josh Allen will have to clean this up in 2019 and start throwing the football more and protecting his head and body.
  11. We give up like 175 yds last week and 248 yds this week and lose both games. That’s brutal man
  12. What are you talking about? I never said it was a moral victory. Jets dominated 2nd half and earned it. If playoffs were on the line I’d be pissed but they weren’t
  13. McD is a fine coach. Stop with the knee jerk reactions over a meaningless tough loss. The Jets played hard. They earned it
  14. Disappointed by the loss but it was a close game and neither team going anywhere this season. Jets played hard obviously wanted to avenge that earlier embarrassment. Darnold played better in crunch time. Allen was ok but some killer drops and inaccuracies too
  15. If reversed, Josh Allen gets lit up at the end of that, Bills didn’t put a hand on Darnold
  16. Allen’s completion % takes a hit but how many good passes are dropped or called back due to penalty? He had to lead the league in that
  17. How about the culture that Marrone has created down in Jacksonville?!? Holy cow, what a disaster. Seems like the players do and say whatever they want.
  18. I've seen plenty of Bills fans on the sidelines of pre-game warmups at road games. I assume they are friends of the suite holders or whoever they are attending the game with to get that sideline access. Most people, however, are wearing just a t-shirt, hoodie, cap, etc.. Nothing like the Pack fan in the article.
  19. Chiefs, Colts, Jets and Panthers are just gross.
  20. I still go back to the old reference...Jerry Rice had a slow 40-time but he ran a 4.2 on Sundays. I really hope the Bills can find a way to draft AJ. Mack got away, let's hope AJ doesn't. He's going to be very productive in the NFL. He has great body position/control and catches with his hands. There are reports that the Cowboys love him. The Bills need a solid WR and gotta get this done.
  21. Love ya Scottie but why couldn't Christie be the one kicking that 47 yd FG on that fateful Jan. 1991 night in Tampa when i was sitting at the 50 yard line?!?!?!? Ok, sorry,,, that pic took me back.
  22. I just assumed it was because A) at this level, a punter probably has super hand/eye coordination and is used to catching the snap and B) the punter has the time in practice to handle this duty
  23. Watching Skins Makes you really appreciate having Allen and Barkley
  24. The ball definitely must’ve slipped out of Josh’s hand. Even going to his left he was able to Rip it and his arm is plenty strong enough, even when tired. You can tell on replay Clays right toe caught the turf monster, so he was falling forward. What I don’t understand is why a professional receiver like Clay would not get his arms under the ball to keep it From hitting the ground? It’s like he short armed it. Strange all around
