  1. I was thinking the same thing about Mongo. Our lack of heft at the center position was obvious last night. No matter which way they ran, the hole was not there. During pass plays, the d tackles got to Allen before he could catch the ball. It's an obvious upgrade.
  2. Yeah! The more you play the same offense, the easier it gets to defend. With Gabe not telling the truth and allowing a healthy wr play hamstrung the offense. Along with Brown and Beasley limping along, the d could just cover Diggs man up with the safety on top and they had the whole offense in front of them. If you can't open your offensive play book, it's easier to defend.
  3. Motion? There is no motion in Daboll's offense, which is huge weakness. We finally saw McKittrick in a few plays last night, but overall, it's a stagnant offense.
  4. Tampa's original Tampa-two d, but they were figured out by the next year.
  5. The lack of a running game goes back to the offensive line, or a lack thereof. Our center, who should be the anchor, is the weakest link. Any off tackle run attempted by the Bills this year has been blown up by the stout defensive lines (another weakness of the Bills) leaving nowhere to run. Last night's game showed the weaknesses in our line when the guards don't overpower their men. The d line was on top of Allen before any of the receivers were open. Of course, the bad Josh showed up last night and he refused to dump the ball off to the short man. And when he did, the pass was dropped. Which all goes back to the running backs. It's a chicken or the egg question. Which problem will be addressed to stop the downward spiral.
  6. NFL stats do not round up to the next yard mark. If the los is the 20, and rb runs just short of the 30, he is credited with a 9 yd run. It's been this way for years. The 101yd return seems correct.
  7. Kelly also had problems with sideline passes. The wind was too unpredictable. But with his strong arm, his passes into the wind were often better than with the wind. Josh will figure this out in time. Hopefully as soon as possible.
  8. Beat me to it! An occasional period would make the longest sentence in the world readable.
  9. I got whacked on head once and it wasn't until the next day that I had symptoms. You know how the bed starts spinning after a wicked night of drinking? I had that for three days. Was not fun!
  10. If that was boxing, the ref would have called the fight. He was out on his feet.
  11. I didn't think it was going to happen, but I was hoping the Browns were going to win. I couldn't go to the first two games, but I would have been able to go if the Browns didn't gag. Oh well. I'll have my tickets paid for next season. That is if they don't increase prices.
  12. What a surprise! NBC has turned into the 4th best NFL broadcaster before our very eyes. They are so busy talking about Lamar Jackson that they don't help you feel that you are there for the game. I couldn't help but laugh hearing Michele Tafoya report that the wind had just about stopped when the flags were whipping around and the uprights were waving back and forth. Clueless!
  13. I voted no because he has disappeared in too many games over the last few years. He is paid a ton of money to be an impact player. Not someone who makes one or two tackles a game and no sacks for weeks at a time. That is not WOF worthy.
