    The lesson is don't B word about the coordinators; we don't have enough info. as fans to really know what's going on.


    I was never a Daboll attacker, nor do I ever complain now about Dorsey.

     

    I am surprised, however, that Daboll is doing such a good job in NY; didn't really expect it.

     

     

    Thing is if you listen to people like Greg Cosell and Chris Simms who really know how to watch film, if you look at things like Cover 1 film breakdowns you can start to get an idea of what's happening. People like those mentioned, Erik Turner and others always talked glowingly about what Daboll was doing.

     

    Dorsey is using less motion, seems to not be using all those different formations Daboll used, for some reason Dorsey has Josh Freakin' Allen executing half field reads, he doesn't seem as opponent-specific or gameplan-specific as Dabes, where are the rub routes and whatever other mysterious dark magic ways to get Gabriel Davis or Knox or Beasley or even a random offensive lineman wide open by a country mile. That contributes to the red zone struggles, not enough ways to win down there causes Josh to push the issue.

     

    Daboll gave you so much to prepare for it ruins your whole week of prep.

  2. I saw it at 7 last night, it's been bet up to 9.5 from there. Bills are also still SB favorites. Bettors and books continue to love us.

     

    It makes sense to me, if Josh goes back to being the guy he's been for 2.5 years rather than the guy he's been the last 2.5 games then the Bills are again the best team even with no other changes. If not hkr his errors we're 8-1 and the class of the league right now.

  3. It's interesting to me the Bills remain the betting favorite to win the chip and are considered way more likely than Minnesota and Miami.

     

    BUF +400

    KC +500

    PHI +500

    DAL +1000

    SF +1000

    BAL +1400

    MIN +1400

    TB +1800

    MIA +1800

    CIN +2800

     

    If the Bills don't make major changes but Josh pulls himself together that alone will make the Bills a danger again. Poyer and maybe Tre'Davious will help the defense. Joshua Patrick willing, there's no reason the team couldn't get hot at the right time.

    Make fun of me, say I'm a liar, say whatever you want.

    I'm done.

     

    I'm 34 years old, married with a 1 month old. I live out of state. 

    I have been a Bills fan all of my life, I'm not going to stop being a fan, I can't. I've been cursed. For many years, I dreamed when I finally had a kid that as they grew up, I would have someone who would love the Bills as much as I do, something we could share. My wife doesn't care about sports (it sucks). That dream is over, I'm not cursing my daughter to a lifetime of misery. 

     

    Of course, I will keep up with the Bills, but I've got to change the way they have an impact in my life. Beyond my family and job, the Bills have come next. Watching every game, having whatever app needed to watch them out of state, clothing, $, etc. 

     

    I'm done. I cant keep doing this. The way I feel after a loss has to stop (especially the epic meltdown losses we are all to familiar with); I'm miserable, I'm mad, I'm angry, it consumes me. I'm to emotionally invested. Beyond my job and family, the Bills have been everything and anyone who knows me knows its my identity. 

     

    Something has to give. 

     

    So, I thought about it after the KC game last season. Now after this, its time. I'm no longer watching the Bills live. 4 hours every "Sunday" for 17 weeks and whatever playoffs and preseason stuff. That's over 70+ hours each season. That's roughly 3 days of my life each year devoted to the Bills.

     

    What has it given back to me, how am I a better person for doing this. What good, what accomplishments, what have I earned from this. 

    NOTHING

    All I do is become a emotional wreck and a miserable, grumpy jerk when they lose. (I can remember crying as a little kid, like 6/7 years old). The crying as a little kid, now is mostly just meant with anger. Any of my friends and family know. To the point of, my best friends wife, texted my wife and wanted to see how angry I was after the KC loss. It's embarrassing. I have become a side show spectacle, to point where people are curious how "epic" my meltdown was. (I would like to say, I actually took it like a champ, and kept it all in eternally and showed nothing emotionally). No anger, just disappointment in myself and the Bills. 

     

    From here on, perhaps I go back to it at some point. I dont know. I'm just done. I am disappointed in myself more for caring so much for 30 years. 

     

    From this point on, I'm not watching another Bills game live. I need to do better in my life, maybe this is a small step in the right direction. I know I will watch replays if they win (just like I might watch Netflix or Disney +), but I'm gaining my life back. I'm done.

     

     

    Do what you feel is right and never apologize to anyone for being the best man you can be.

    I was. You just didn’t agree.  
     

    I would’ve preferred they held him back for a week, to make sure that elbow is ok.  I’ll leave it at that.

     

    I bleed red, white, and royal blue, and never lost my way.  I’m just looking at a SB RUN, not a meaningless nfc game that doesn’t hurt us in the playoff matchups..

     

    call me if a Question as im a reasonable guy.

    I'm not putting more energy in this, all the best.

    I never lost my way.  I’ve been a true blue Bills fan to the end.  I was concerned with our hero putting himself out there and maybe hurting himself and this team for the year.

     

    Check yourself as I care about the playoffs and SB.  IVE BEEN IN THIS FROM THE 70’s.  I care about Josh.  He played today and well.  We lost.  It’s over.  Never challenge me losing my WAY!    I don’t know you, but I’ve been true blue before you’ve ever been here.

     

    see the real boys next week.  We lost.  Moving on.  24 hours.  Game ending sucked.  I know.  Ask the regulars if I. True blue

     

    Lost my way?  Really.

    Nobody questioned your fandom, you just weren't making sense my man.

    Eman, after all these years, wise up?

     

    you’ve been a friend.  I’m disappointed in you.  I’ve had youre back for years.

    What good are friends if they can't hold up a mirror when you've lost your way?

    It's starting to feel like all the negative hype created by Cover 1 and a couple WGR people was just because they heard Josh was getting testing done on the UCL. If that's all they heard and they used it to create cryptic pessimistic BS online I will never post them on this site again. If they want to be more than a Mickey Mouse operation they need to have better standards than that.

     

    The upside is usually if I heard Allen was going to miss one game or more I would be freaking out, but now that my mind had drafted towards season-ending injury territory anything less than that will feel like good news.

    I got a lot of love for the Cover1 boys but they may have stepped in it badly on this one.

    Which is why they should get him blockers and better receivers instead of drafting first round corners to play in a zone system that 6th round picks and UDFAs tend to succeed in.

     

    But hey, I guess "some things will never change."

     

     

    I said it on draft day, the Elam pick was gross. Beane is yet to draft a WR on day one or two his whole Bills tenure. Yes Diggs but he's one guy! And by my reckoning Cody Ford is the only such pick on the OL.
