That didn't used to be the case...for a long time we were essentially a "No Fly Zone" that on average allowed WELL under 200 yards passing a game for years.

Kind of hilarious we are squabbling about 420 yards a game and 34 points a game while this is also true...

That's typically the way it works especially considering McD's defense is predicted more than any other on everyone doing their job and playing their role properly to succeed and that we will be getting significant reinforcements back by week 7. Hoecht is going to be a chess piece moved all over the place...that dude is a freak

Liam Cohen? He was Mayfield's OC in Tampa Bay the last 2 years I believe.

Except that the Bills could very well score another 21 points from running the ball because they are really good at it.

I think this is one of those win by 20+ games that looks effortless for us like it's a Pop Warner team playing against an NFL team...Bills typically score a lot of points against NFC teams and Rattler will likely be seeing ghosts like Fields did out there thanks to McD's disguises on D.

Yeah I can kind of agree on that point but unless they also planned for teams to not execute fundamental plays at the end of game that typically have greater than 85% success rates which would have given them 3-4 extra L's last year, I'm not really sure that's all of it. When the Bills do "just enough" they are still b!tch slapping teams by multiple TDs.

Based on the last 2 years outside the playoffs, I don't know about that. They have consistently way underperformed offensively with one of the best QBs at the helm for about 2 years now.

He is the more annoying chain mover.

They can definitely have the ball moved on them....Giants put up almost 300 yards and they looked about as bad as you could be on offense most of the night.

Teams seem more willing to go for it on 4th and short from anywhere on the field really...Vrabel went for it on 4th and short from the Pats like 25 in the 1st quarter just randomly and they made it. I think there is a big push to maintain control of the ball with the decisions being made now far more than it ever was before. Haven seen numerous cases of teams going for it on 4th and short from their own side of the field in situations where years prior would have been 100% punts since it was either early in the game or a close game...not a situation where a team is trying to get back in it late, etc.. Seems more and more in these situations teams are going for it rather than handing the ball over via punt.

Really is insane that people think Rice will just walk back on the field after a year, coming off a serious knee injury and just be like it's Madden where he is right back to exactly the same player. Typically the first year back for a player after an ACL is not great and they look like a shell of their former self, whether that is due to explosiveness not fully back yet, them still being afraid to push it as hard as normal because they still hear and feel "weird" things like pops from scar tissue being broken up, or that they haven't had a training camp to get back in the flow of things and get on the same page with the QB, etc. Coming back in the 2nd year after a full off-season and training camp to get back in shape where they aren't focused more on rehab instead of actual training is when things typically get back to normal. Have seen this time and time again, this should not be a surprise to anyone when it happens. It would be more of a surprise if he came back and looked like the same player this year.

LFG!!

77 and sunny from the early forecasts...hard to get much nicer than that in late September in WNY.

chargers?

I just don't think they are that good to start counting "sure" wins with them. IMO, they could lose to anyone any given week like most other teams. I mean the Ravens lost to the Raiders and Browns last year and they were 20x better than the Colts are this year.

We will be getting important pieces back on D after week 6. I could honestly care less about what they do until they get to the postseason. They need to be playing their best for a change when it actually matters instead of their worst.

Acting as if the Colts have demonstrated ANY consistency that would give you confidence that DC's won't catch up to Daniel Jones by midseason is a little ludicrous. 3 games for a new QB in a new system is not much. If that was the case, Fitz would be a HOF QB based on what he did in the first 5-6 games in TB. They might be a decent, or even good team but they are not an elite team. 10-11 wins is likely their max this year.

Best part is either KC will have 3L's or Baltimore with have 2L's by the end of next week as they play each other.

Bills usually destroy NFC teams...especially bad ones

As usual, another game KC tries to hand on a silver platter to an inferior team that simply wouldn't take it.

18-30 for 162 yards and 2 INTs and a mind-numbing intentional grounding penalty from the 3 or 4 yard line about to score a TD potentially.

Letting Russ Cook will usually result in food poisoning these days.

great job Russ...just go down.

I know that, I was more like how was he such a bust in NE?? They literally had nobody at WR.
