A 2-3 loss Niners or Seahawks team is going to have to travel to Dallas for a playoff game too. Division winters automatically getting a home game is a joke.

Yeah, the way this is going the line to the Bills/Ravens game is going to jump up to 7 after this game.

I hate that Im rooting for the Cowboys so the Bills win looks better.

I'm going to guess that he leads this stat because he frequently breaks away from of the first pass rusher (which takes place 5-7 yards behind the LoS) and ends up running for 7-20 yards. It's not like he's lowering his shoulder and trucking guys down field.

It would be even better if it was the Bills' D who forced him into that day by confusing him in the passing game and hemming him in in the run game.

This is how I feel. I think Balt will win this one and it might not be close, but I also like the Bills to run the table the rest of the way.

He was suspended for calling a player “King Kong.” And while, on the surface, this might appear to be an innocuous comment, when one considers the history in this country of black people being called “monkeys” or “gorillas” one might understand why a group of people might be sensitive to that sort of depiction.

Yeah, this whole, “what does Joe B know?” line of defense is pretty thin. He’s not looking at stunting DL and trying to figure out the protection call and discover if the mistake was Ford’s. Hes watching a DE run right around a Ford and straight to the QB. Or bull rush Ford back into Allen’s lap. In the Athletic article they edited together like 8-10 plays to illustrate Ford’s struggles and all but one was legit. I do take issue with the 3rd down play in the end zone where Allen stepped forward to make that ridiculous throw to Beasley. On the play Ford pushed his guy wide and deep enough. Other than that every play shown was Ford getting dismantled.

This is my line of thinking. One of the DEs (or both) should be tackling/hitting Lamar on every running play, even after he hands the ball off. It's totally legal to hit a QB if he's carrying out a play fake and you think he may still have the ball. Have them both take deeper angles back to Lamar on every play and hit him anytime he does a play fake. RBs have to take breathers from time to time from all the contact they take. Lamar doesn't have that option. Keep hitting him and wear him out. Behind that I'd like to see them maybe just play 1 CB and use a S in Wallace's place when the Ravens go 13 personnel. Maybe even do it if they go 12. Someone who can cover a TE and but be better vs. the run. Give the Ravens the deep outside parts of the field. If Lamar can hit those throws, so be it, but don't give him his bread and butter play fake, pull the LBs up and drop an easy completion over the LBs and in front of the safeties.

Any consideration is directly related to Allen's steady improvement. Many thought Allen shouldn't even see the field for 2 years yet here he is being talked about as one of the young, up and coming QBs and is leading his team to the playoffs. That type of mentoring of a young, raw, QB will get team's attention. It doesn't mean he lands the job, but it will get him some interviews.

If you click on the link in the post you quoted it is updated, but only to Nov 26th. Oliver is still 4th but with an 18% win rate.

Yeah, I could see someone saying, "we don't know how good the Bills are yet" because of their schedule but saying they're "paper tigers" or a "fraud" is just wrong.

How does Guice not win that? He did it against a LB as opposed to a QB. The only thing easier than plowing over a QB is if the K was out there trying to make a tackle.

Yeah, I’ve always hated the QB passing TD stat being so heavily weighted in QB metrics. So the stat is telling me that if a team runs the ball into the end zone with a RB from the 5 then the QB isn’t as good as if he threw a 5 yard TD pass? The important thing is a QB who routinely moves the offense and scores points. Who scores them or how they score just isn’t that important.

If the Bills find a way to beat the Ravens and the Pats lose to KC next week the final 3 weeks of the season would be f’n crazy.

Yeah, you’re right, I forgot they released him.

Yeah, this is the worst 10-1 team I’ve ever seen.

I don’t want him getting injured. Hoyer could very easily come in and play better. It’s not that tall of an order.

Watson might have the best deep ball in the leafue

I don’t think that’s a TD but I hope they uphold it.

The #3 tiebreaker for a division is best won/lost percentage in common games, not conference record. I haven’t done the math myself but every playoff calculator I’ve seen says we need to finish with a better record. Beat me to it

Well, one does have to die before being sainted. All part of Saint Doug’s plan.

They don’t. The Bills have to finish with a better record than the Pats. The Bills need the Oats to lose to KC next week too.

If the Bills don’t win the division it’s best if the Pats get the 1 seed. After the Bills win their WC game they will likely play the 1 seed. I’d rather knock off the Pats in NE than travel to Baltimore.
