Yep. People don’t have to ignore/make excuses for every mistake the kid makes. He needs to get better and I’m betting he’s the first one who would say that.

I’d love to see him hit the 56% mark.

What has.l a higher percentage chance of happening? A Hail Mary or a 59 yard field goal? Just mind boggling decision making by McDermott.

If he keeps it up he’ll have more in common with Big Ben than just play style.

I opened this thread just knowing there’d be at least one poster who would do this. There’s always one. A bright ray of sunshine that brightens the entire world.

The comma you forgot makes it sound like Jack's grandson is a dolphin and Jack is into marine mammals in a not-so-legal way.

Without knowing how many players each team has under contract next year those numbers aren't exactly apples to apples. Are any of those teams losing important cogs and that's how they're getting that space?

Both the Colts and Ravens have beaten the Bills. Except for some 3 way tie scenarios involving other teams that is essentially a 3 game lead for both teams.

I’d like to see him stop taking on defenders. He needs to lean to avoid contact instead of looking for it.

No, there can be no defensive holding within one yard of the LoS. A flag was picked up when a Bills WR was held a few weeks ago.

What happened to no holding within one yard of the LoS?

I don’t disagree. That’s was BS.

Neither were BS. Both were obvious.

The last two TD drives he has one attempt. Pathetic.

I come to the point where I prefer Ivory. McCoy just won’t stop dancing.

Very true, but he was still better than Allen to this point. But then again a real argument could be made that EJ was better than Allen to this point. U

The Vikings defense is allowing 7 more points per game this year. That has been the main difference this season, not Cousins. If the D was anywhere near what they were last year they would be super bowl contenders.

Not true. Those three teams win games that way. Every other team has to worry about turnovers because it's still the stat that's most associated with winning and losing. You have to have a fantastic offense to be able to regularly overcome turnovers.

Based on the way Ramsey phrased it I'm not sure he's talking about Allen the QB and not Allen the person. Either there's some personal beef with the guy or perhaps he's pissed at the tweets from Allen that got released the eve of the draft. Who knows but it doesn't sound like he's just talking about his play.

People are giving a single game way too much credit in how it illustrates the "new" NFL game. It was just a single game between two teams who have very good offenses - and subpar defenses - this year. NFL teams are averaging 24.2 points per game this season. Yes, it's the highest it's ever been but it hardly makes 54-51 games the "new norm." In 1946 NFL teams averaged 23.6 points per game, that didn't signal the beginning of some new offensive explosion. Just a changing game that took defenses awhile to catch up to.

So in your scenario the guy who buys Miller Lite isn't cheap? Interesting.

Defenseless WR was the only one I thought wasn’t a great call. Everything else was legit.

Which calls do you disagree with? I’ve only seen one I thought was iffy.

I don’t think you understand odds. If every game you mentioned was a 50% chance of going the Bills way the chances of ALL of it happen is less than 1 percent. It’s about a 1 in 500 chance of it all happening. And that 1/500 chance is being way generous because the games we need aren’t a coin flip. I’d say it’s closer to a 1/5000 than 1/500. Cue the “so you’re saying there’s a chance!” meme.

Running backs who have successfully extended their careers tend to be one cut runners. Guys who extend plays outside and rely on quickness and/or speed tend to have much swifter drop offs. There's always the exception but I don't think Shady is going to be very productive 3 years from now.
