Letting a halfback throw the ball ossnt playing scared

He doesn’t fumble

Need a game changing play from the D. I’m not sure the O can drive the field to score any more points.

That’s the way the team is built. Better QB play, better WR play, better OL play maybe they make a different choice.

They’re trying to make the playoffs for 53 guys, it’s not about Allen getting practice.

Ball at the 10 yard line, you don’t turn the ball over their offense can’t beat you. It’s totally the right call.

Pretty sure with the Raiders and Browns losses all the Bills need to get I to the playoffs is the Saints winning tomorrow vs the Colts and next week vs the Titans. Ot, obviously, winning any of the next three

Guy has thrown 24 INTs this year. This is year 5, he is what he is. He’s not a QB you can rely on week in, week out.

Yeah, shotgun on 4th and 1. Reminds me of The Bledsoe/Gilbride era.

Really good video. Really bad thread title.

He usually dumps it off short but sometimes chucks it up down field for a 50/50. His WRs have been making plays in addition to quite a few PI calls against the defender.

mine?

Tomlin has never had a losing season in his 12 full seasons as a HC. He's won the division 6 times, made the playoffs 8 times (maybe 9 if they get in this year) won the conference twice and the SB once. He's just 47 years old. Some people don't know how good they've got it.

Yep, it's a proprietary metric and they haven't, and won't, release exactly how it's calculated. They give a general, "this is what's involved" statement but not specifics. If I don't know how a statistic is calculated how on earth can I know if I think it's valuable?

I’m not a fan of statistics that are kept in secret either. That said, the point still stands. These 3 Ds are all top 4-5 in the league by most metrics.

Yep, I’d rather risk a few yards in starting field position for the chance to break off a big one. The risk/reward is definitely worth it.

Yep, if you don't throw the ball with arch it has to be pin point. Loft it a little and it gives the WR a chance to adjust and get under it.

Yep, if the Bills win this week and lose to the Pats next week there’s no need to risk the starters. Maybe give the, a series or two like they would in pre-season.

Yeah, the problem with max protect vs. cover 0 is that when a TE doesn’t go out on a pattern the guy who would be covering him almost always blitzes. They’re almost always going to have a man advantage in the blitz game. I’d rather spread them out and give Josh more room to move around in the pocket (or run) while also giving him more options to throw to.

Yeah, I don't care that much about not seeing teams from the other conference that much, it doesn't bother me at all. Getting stuck in a division with the greatest dynasty the NFL has seen for 20 years and watching crap teams win other divisions time and time again, that has jaded me to the division format. Obviously life isn’t fair but it doesn’t mean we shouldn’t strive to make it as fair as possible particularly when talking about competitions. The current system is crap.

Get rid of divisions and you could also make it so teams have almost identical schedules. My preference would be play every team in your conference once plus one out of conference game against the team that finished in the same place in the other conference the previous year.

Yeah, I've had this opinion for a long time. I'd love to get rid of the divisions format as well.

Because people rationalize and excuse behavior when they are part of that group. They do it for their football teams, their political party, their country, etc. They do it for pretty much everything so they can go on feeling good about themselves. It's what people do.

No, Bills would need the Chiefs to lose a game to get the 2 seed. There obviously is but I can’t find it messing with the playoff machine. edit: Found it. If Pit, Hou, Tenn and NE all finish with 10 wins the Pats are the team that misses out.

Every fiber of my being becomes aggravated when I have to listen to him speak. And every fiber of my being jumps for joy when I see him throw pick after pick.
