I have to say, the Buckeyes looked really impressive on Saturday, just toyed with Oklahoma. They would get my vote as no. 1.Check this out

With Watkins hobbled, we can expect that to continue.Happy that the 2016 Leading Bills WR is back from his concussion....
Who would have thought through 2 weeks Goodwin would be leading the team in yardage
-
Anyone else sick of Lionel Richie/Peyton Manning? If I see that ad one more time this weekend, my tv is not gonna make it.
-
Yep, the Pegulas put in place an infrastructure that was almost guaranteed to lead to disfunction. They really seem to be in over their heads.Why is that weird, given the reporting structure set up by the Pegulas where Whaley has no authority over the coaching staff and Rex, like Whaley and Brandon, report in parallel directly to the Pegulas?
-
Have you heard of Ryan Grigson?any gm looks great when you get a qb
-
Is it just me or does TT look slower than he did last year? Last year he looked like a threat to break one every time he took off running, but this year he seems unable to outrun people.

It's harder to build a good offense than a good defense. It requires a solid offensive line, which in and of itself is hard to build and hard to coach into a cohesive unit. Then you need skill players that the defense has to account for--receivers who can't easily be single covered. Then of course you need a QB, the most elusive piece of all. And on top of that, you need a smart offensive coordinator--it seems to me that offensive play design and play calling is more complex than defensive playcalling and design. I just don't think it's nearly as hard to build a solid defense--hell, even Rex did it once upon a time.
This organization has been massively incompetent for a decade and a half. Building a good offense is far beyond its capability, while there have been times that they have had a good coordinator who managed to cobble together a pretty strong defense for a year or two.

The few times he has been wrong were the times he got suckered into thinking the Bills were on the right track: At one point, he felt Fitz was the answer at QB and supported his new contract, and I believe he was fully on board with the Rex hire. Being wrong about those things has made him even more skeptical, and rightly so.hes been saying this team is terrible for years. He's expressed his opinions about EJ, Dareus, Stevie, Fitz, Etc...
He's actually ALWAYS been right. For years we've hated him because we have rose colored glasses on. But in reality, he's always been right all along.
It sucks to say that. And I'm sure it sucks just as much to hear it. But sit back and think about all the times you hated Sully for what he's said. But the fact is we have sucked for the past 16 years and he's been right about that as far as I can remember
-
Surprised no one has mentioned Tom Herman. Or maybe I just missed it.
-
Yep. The idea that the offense is fine because the team scored 31 points is absurd to anyone who actually watched the game. Zero sustained drives until the last possession, when the Jets DB's were lined up in Lackawana. And that 4th and 1 sequence....True, but the offense did suck out loud too.
-
The third and 1, fourth and 1, EJ, timeout burning debacle alone was grounds for immediate termination.

Thad Lewis reincarnate.JP Losman reincarnate

Moves the chains so your stretched, tired defense isn't constantly trotting back on the field.- Makes the HC and OC look better
- Can put up huge numbers of points on a day when the defense isn't playing well
- Makes his WR's look good
- A few bad zebra calls. No problem...I'll just complete a big pass on 3rd and forever
- Game on the line late in the 4th quarter...here's another comeback
Until we have a franchise QB, this 5-11, 6-10, 7-9, 8-8, 9-7 crap will continue no matter how many times they change coaches, players, GM's, team presidents, etc...

Dan Snyder is a great businessman, too. So was Ralph Wilson and probably Donald Sterling. There really is no correlation between that and knowing how to run a professional sports team.Without the Pegula's we may of lost the Bills.
My hope is that like any great business people, Terry and Kim will learn and get better.
-
I too was hoping they would keep Tyrod on the sideline. I think EJ would have done much better, especially with all the time the offensive line was giving him. Tyrod looks shell-shocked, at this point.Was I the only guy out there who was kind of disappointed when Tyrod jogged back out there after the mandatory concussion thing? EJ completed a pass! Yeah, it was thrown low, but he completed a move-the-sticks type pass!
-
Can the NFL fine Gilmore for impersonating a football player?
-
or tacked on, since it was a dead ball foul?On the play where decker got called for taunting and there was also holding on the o-line, why was it first and 20 after? Shouldn't the 15 yarder have superseded the 10 yarder to make 1st and 25?
-
I understand this argument, and Tyrod has had a few good games, but it's his sixth year in the league. He panics in the pocket and can't make the bread and butter throws. I'm not sure those things are correctable; in fact, they are the same things that got EJ where he is today.We're 2 games into the season with our young qb. He's struggling sure, but it's 2 games. He has legit started 16 games. He may have a long career he may not, but Jeeze... Hasn't he earned at least 2 years?? Most qbs are pretty terrible when they first start playing.
No misdirection, no reverses, a wounded receiver who can't run, a te running out of bounds. A defense who legit had 1 real stop, and couldn't get off the field. Plenty of blame to go around...
Give the guy this year, we don't really have other options.
-
I don't think there's much evidence for this. Plenty of young QBs get thrown into difficult situations and come out the better for it. Cardale doesn't strike me as a guy with a fragile psyche--or a fragile body.Start playing him now and he'll have to adjust on the fly for skills sets he doesn't have yet. He'll develop bad habits and that'll be all she wrote.
-
Agreed. Tyrod was unmolested; he just can't make the throws he needs to make.Given all of the bad, it Looked like he had a solid game.
-
Jones will make some bad throws and will look confused at times, but he won't panic at the first hint of a pas rush and he has nice touch on the short-medium routes. Gotta see if he can play before deciding to use our third overall pick on a QB. If we find out that Cardale can play in the NFL, the season will not have been a total loss.Laugh at me all you want, but it's time NOW to put Cardale Jones in and see if HE can play. It's painfully obvious that this is a 5 win team at best, so just say F&*K it now, and see if the kid has anything.
I cannot explain how dissapointed I am in Tyrods play. I thought we had an answer finally, but, like many others realize I'm painfully mistaken.
-
I agree, eventually, but as bad as it looks now, I think they have to stick with tyrod for at least a few more games. Tyrod does not look good, though. Kinda reminds me of Thad Lewis right now.
-
I would too, but we would be lucky to get a second round pick for him. He not a top ten DT, has a huge contract, and a ton of baggage.Sammy is still young; I'd keep him but would send Marcell packing....
-
He's not worth the compensatory pick we will get when he walks.I am in your corner on this K-9. He is Charmin soft
Any word on Goodwin?
