A fool and his money soon part. Good thing it goes to charity.

He’s not exactly at a position that demands agility and speed. He’ll be fine. Too soon to complain about Wyatt Teller?

Will be worth every penny.

Glad we picked up Fabio.

I’ve lived in both cities. And the answer is “not really”.

This is what Beane said about being at a competitive disadvantage. I won’t shed a tear.

The issue here will be price. There’s no doubt his agent will begin negotiations by asking for him go be the highest paid QB in the league. Where they from there is anyone’s guess, but he may even end up getting more than Josh. QB contracts are not measured by skill, but rather when they sign them. They keep going higher and higher. And this could very well end up being a horrible contract for Baltimore.

This has Belicheat’s fingerprints all over it.

Nope, he’s well versed in the destruction of electronics. https://www.sbnation.com/2015/7/28/9060211/tom-brady-deflategate-cell-phone-roger-goodell-nfl-new-england-patriots

I feel better about the NE and TEN losses than today’s win against one of the worse teams in the NFL.

This looks like it’s probably due to poor coaching. They are stepping on the gas, in terms of offensive or defensive success, but not at critical points in the game. The result is they don’t win the game.

Why is our team always the one that has to make 2nd-half adjustments in order to score or stop an offense? Really, I’m sensing a trend.

Wouldn’t it be great if Christian Wade got the call?

Until another stat says they do.

Because runs eat up the clock and keep Josh Allen off the field. While a 1 yard completion would eat up 40 seconds, just like a 1 yard run, an incompletion (about half of thrown passes) stops the clock. Teams that want to kill the clock run the ball over and over again. We had no answer.

I have no problem with JA. I have a problem with how this roster was assembled. No QB can win all by himself in a sustainable manner. He needs a running game to lean on when just throwing isn’t working. Even TB in his prime had a solid running game to lean on. Right now, the Bills offense is 1 dimensional. You shut down the passing lanes and they are cooked. This is what we have seen in all of our loses. But, I don’t blame JA’s ability.

They were killing the clock all night. They only had 3 passing attempts.

This is how it works. When their offense is on the field, our offense cannot be on the field scoring points. NE ran it down our throats, almost having 2 100-yard rushers. They didn’t throw at all. This translated to the Cheatriots being on the field for an extra 3 minutes. Our average TOP this year is 30:48. Last night, it was 27:59. That’s basically 1 less drive or chance to score. Lastly, 8 points were scored last night directly due to our inability to stop the run.

So, windbreaker or poncho?

I’m more thinking a guy for around $10M per year rather than a top FA.

If he’s out that long, it’s probably a safe bet we’ll be signing a significant CB in FA or drafting one very early.

EJ Gaines still available?

Won’t help this year, but I guess we’ll have to add a CB to next year’s draft early round wish list. Outside of Allen, we shouldn’t be this dependent on a single player. I guess we’ll soon find out. Still, this is a serious blow to any Super Bowl aspirations.

We actually lost that game. 😞

I’m pretty sure I saw Belichick milling around the stadium kitchen last night.
