    They have a great defense year in and year out that beats a lot of mediocre teams and they very rarely beat themselves. They don't ask their QB's to do anything really besides not turn over the ball. Sometimes thats all it takes to win 9 games a year. They can't beat the upper echelon teams unless they play sloppy though.

    Yeah, like even this year they've played against a lot of young qb's so that helps the defense look good. But they have playmakers and sometimes if you keep it close against a good team a play or two can get you the win.

    For context, Tomlin manages to stay above 500 with guys like Mason Rudolph and Mitchell Trubisky. He knows how to be competitive without top tier QBs. I am not buying into the Russel Wilson hype. It’s about Tomlin.

    It's never just about the coach in Pittsburgh, it's the whole organization. What they value in a player and what the expectations are.

    half field read

     

    very obvious

    Maybe it's just me, but the only thing that is obvious to me is that Josh had decided Hollins was the target prior to the snap. With the little pump fake seems to me Josh was going for it but Hollins had nothing. Might actually be a problem that has reared it's ugly head before, maybe even something that would piss off a wr like Diggs after watching film. Because really, with that setup and the short routes Shavers is the play all day.

    I def think this is some of the issue and will improve…quite a few of those scramble drill plays if guys did what Josh expected there were some big play opportunities 

     

    wont fix everything obviously but it will help a bit 

    Josh has got to stop taking huge shots on the scramble drill plays, he's not going to make it long if he does. We need to get a TE or back to block and then release for the easy dump offs instead. We can try rolling him that way in the first place too, hopefully getting him to set up out there will be safer for him to get rid of the ball before getting a shot.

    Texans didn’t pull it off nearly as convincingly as the ravens.  The plays were there for us to win this one we just didn’t make them.  That’s the thing with man blitz,  a lot of plays you’ll get home fast enough where the coverage on the back end holds up and you look like a genius.  But the few times it doesn’t you SHOULD get torched for big plays.
     

    teams have been doing this to josh for years and the games the oline doesn’t hold up and Josh’s accuracy is off consistently throughout we put up absolute stinkers.  It isn’t new by any means 

    Seems to be more effective since we have less talent on the outside. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm cringing when I see Josh throwing the ball over 30 yards. Coleman doesn't have the body control yet to win jump balls consistently and between balls being thrown poorly and the lack of talent to adjust seems like a bad situation this year, at this point.

    I swear I saw Shavers on the field yesterday, yet he is still listed as on the practice squad on the Bills team website.

    I saw him too. Don't know if he's the slot guy, assuming he was up because of Shakir but I didn't pay too much attention to the inactives

    In the last 4 years the Buffalo Bills are: 

    13-15 in 1 score games

    25-2 in all other games

    We brought in a guy this year to help with booth reviews and that seems to have worked out well. I just don't know; do we have a guy to help with in-game management? If we do, it seems like we need a different guy.

    He's been off the last two games, not the entire year.

     

    These last two games we have had play calls where nearly all of our receivers are running deep routes. Why? This does not benefit Josh Allen.

     

    The team was so fixated on getting a touchdown after the Stroud fumble, that they never really tried to at least get another first down or get closer to the end zone.

    Because of that they settled for 3 when they could have delivered a killshot.

     

    Where were the passes over the middle yesterday?

     

    The coaches are not helping Allen. That is the problem!

    Seems to me there is a bit of a book on JA now. Take the middle away and make our wr's beat you outside. The announcers talked about how the ravens wanted to do that and seemed to me the texans did it to. It's up to Brady to try and counter that with what we have. Will be interesting if we see some different guys getting a few more snaps, like maybe even getting Hamler up just to try and threaten the defense a little bit differently from what we've been doing.

    Unless you completely rest it for a month or so, turf toe will linger throughout the season and I suspect that’s ongoing issue.   Not sure how that might relate to how Brady uses him or not. 

    I also suspect the toe is causing some issues. I think it makes sense at this point to just ir him and give him the time to heal. Let some other wr's get some experience and hope that the team is stronger overall heading into the playoffs. Maybe they're looking to use a couple of weeks plus the bye later in the season, but someone needs to be able to get open out of the slot if we don't have Shakir. Since it doesn't seem like Samuel can be that guy at this point and I would rather find that other guy sooner rather than later.

    All you “Holier than Thou” cart returners haven’t reached my level yet. 
     

    On my way INTO the store, I’ll stop and grab a cart out of the corral and take it into the store. Then, when I go back outside, I’ll put it in the stack near the sidewalk to the store. 
     

    Boom!! How’s that?

    I'm with you. I tend to grab one on the way in to the store whether I need one or not. Could be one from the return or left wherever (like the handi area) or grabbing one from someone who just happens to be done unloading it. I'll just leave it at the front if I don't need it. Seems like an easy thing to do, and I don't need a quarter to do it.
