I’m a big fan of Milano. A healthy Milano. The trouble is we can’t count onhim to be there week in and week out. Definitely not worth 8 to 12 mil a year which will be the going rate.
More like 14 or 15 mil a year.

Line seems about right. They're getting healthier but Mullens is backup caliber and Kittle missing is still enormous.
If we can't contain Mostert it could be a problem...dude is one of the fastest guys in the NFL and has several long TDs this year...

First year he had to deal with the move to LA. Then they were playing in a soccer stadium with more opponents fans than their own. Rivers was a train wreck last year. I'm not trying to say Lynn is even a good coach but he has had some obstacles to deal with. Gase has been terrible everywhere he has gone and he had some weapons to work with in NY last year.
Rivers is looking pretty decent this year again...so who was at fault?
Good teams use things going against them to galvanize them in an "us against the world" mentality. Bad teams fold.
Lynn has had far more talent than Gase but only 1 more win to show for it. That is really terrible coaching. And after today's clock management fiasco I see why they are always losing close games.

I'll raise you Joey Bosa's 6 TFL's.
At least 2 were on Allen but the main difference was the D Linemen were not standing in the backfield unblocked waiting for the ballcarrier to get the ball.

The 75 combined net passing yards in the Broncos-Saints game must be some sort of low for the past 40 or 50 years I would think...anyone see anything on the last time 2 teams combined totalled 75 or fewer passing yards in a game?

Cover 1 dudes thought epenesa played his best Game yet. I saw a really good play on TFL. Wondering if anyone’s else noticed.
also agree Ed had a good game (great if not for the penalty)
Epenesa had a few nice plays today and was noticeable in the backfield

Seems the past 2 weeks the refs are trying to make up for the lack of holding calls in the first half of the year by throwing flags on what seems like every other offensive play on some drives.
I don't ever remember seeing as many 1st and 30 or 2nd and 35 situations as I have seen the past 2 weeks. Some of them are justified and some aren't. Honestly to me it looks like the players have all adjusted to what wasn't being called the first half of the year and now when they are doing the same thing it is a penalty. There just needs to be consistency...it seems the NFL has issued a mandate to call more holds on offense because there are a lot more the past few weeks.

I think Lynn showed that today, extremely talented chargers team with a bad record.
Anthony Lynn is 8-19 since last season. Adam Gase is 7-20. Let that sink in for a moment. There is no reason in the world the Chargers should only be 1 win better than the Jets since last season. The talent difference between the two teams is immense.

They made Herbert look bad for most of the game. A few good plays but his feet were all over the place. The most underwhelming 300 yard passing day I have ever seen.
On 11/18/2020 at 6:34 PM, Mr. WEO said:The D is free to make more stops. They fall apart after halftime. Why can't this D do the same to opponent's Offenses in the 2nd half? This happened in last year's playoff game.
Again, the Bills scored 31 PPG in those games I referenced. They gave up 29 PPG.
What kind of team makes a habit out of turning comfortable second half leads into come from behind thrillers?
If you argument is that a team that puts up 31 a game in a stretch of close games has a problem with the Offense......you have some heavy lifting ahead of you.
Pretty much every team in the NFL?
No lead is safe. The Packers turned a big halftime lead into a loss last week in Indy. KC survived a comeback attempt by TB after being up 17-0 amd 27-10.
It's just how the league is. Too many rules favoring the offense and too many penalties on defense now. Thinking otherwise is simply just not watching enough other games.

I really do not want to play the Browns in the playoffs. I don’t think we match up with them at all. They run the ball well and play good D. Give me the Fins or even the Colts.
I am not afraid of them at all. I think the Bills could.make Mayfield look really bad with the way the D has been aggressive the last 5 games.

Another way to look at it:
As "flat" as the Bills were, the 18 point deficit the Chargers faced at 24-6 was their largest deficit of the entire year. The Bills are sneaky...they don't seem to be playing great at times but they still roll up points on teams...

Milano back next week should help alot too. Maybe they've also figured out a role for Klein which with Milano also playing could be a big plus
Maybe back next week. No gauarantee. But the run D will face a major test with Mostert being back for the 49ers...

His ankle bent but if you watch at the very end his knee got pinned underneath him and he was kind of pushed in the other direction by the guy coming in late...
Very lucky because I thought it could have been a bad ankle and/or knee sprain or possible tear.

It’s hard to understand I get it. We played a pretty ugly game offensively. If we were playing a high quality team, say in the playoffs, there’s a good chance we don’t win that game with all the mistakes that were made todayOK. What is your point?
The game we play today has 0 bearing on the game we play against a good team in the playoffs.
Or do you think that every other good team in the league brings their 'A' game each week and somehow the Bills are the only team that doesn't?
If so you obviously watch very little football outside of the Bills games because week in and week out most teams are up and down in the way they play.
Which brings me to the point that it is tiring hearing about how the Bills seemingly are some crazy team that is always up and down where other teams aren't. It isn't the case. Football is a matchup sport. Some weeks even if you are playing a very good team record wise you match up better than other teams would. Sometimes you play a bad team and don't match up as well. Injuries are a big factor also.
So my advice is that if you think the Bills are alone in this watch more football and you will see this is the norm.

It’s easy to say “who cares, we won” but we lose these games against quality opponents
Except the Bills have more wins against teams with winning records than anyone else in the NFL.
Come again?
3 minutes ago, MJS said:Such a bull crap argument with no merit. How many quality teams do the Bills have to beat in order to make you happy?
Apparently beating more teams with winning records than any other team in the NFL doesn't make him happy.

Why wasn't this game postponed like several others??
Hell, have a second game on Tues. or put it off for a week, both have been done for other teams this year.
It makes no sense unless some agenda is in play.
Because there wasn't an outbreak of positive COVID tests on the team, this was due to contact tracing and lack of following guidelines.
IE, playing the game wouldn't have potentially exposed players to COVID whereas the other games it could have.
Games are only moved due to medical decisions NOT teams and players being idiots.

But I mean they jumped to an 18 point lead which was the biggest deficit the Chargers have faced this year.
They do far more things right than wrong which is why they are 8-3 and a lucky play away from being 9-2.

Winters is totally useless, and Knox is the worst blocker amongst tight ends I have ever seen. Even Kroft blocks half of the time. At least Lee Smith didn't have any penalties. I think that is a first.
And he had another catch getting Schopp closer to winning his bet
2 minutes ago, MJS said:I can think of many more positives than that. But I don't think people want to hear those. They want to hear things like "We're clearly the worst team ever" and "Our coaches are so horrible" and "there's no way we could beat team X in the playoffs".
This place makes it feel like we have a losing team, not a team poised to win the division and host a home playoff game for the first time in decades.
We just can't have nice things.
Not me...I think they are a good team that just has mental lapses during the game at some point. Honestly it might stem from them being in the lead so much that they feel like they are coasting and then let teams back in before slamming the door usually.
Whatever they did in the bye week for the run game worked well and the defense continued to play aggressive which has really been night and day since the Chief game.
I do have some concerns with the offense having so many struggles in the passing game without Brown but it's hard to argue when they are still putting up 27 points and would have likely been 30+ without the fumble near the redzone.

they sucked against the rams in the second half. that was 2 3 and 20 yard conversions and a DPI requirement to win that game
NE was a last second fumble
Dolphins was close game
The Bills lead the NFL in average 4th quarter points. You gloss over that conveniently.

titans just went on the road against a division rival and crushed the colts. who just beat pack
And the Colts demolished the Titans 2 weeks ago on the road. What's your point? It is a week to week league.
Also the Pack blew that game they had a big first half lead.

Dude, if you think the fourth quarter performance will work week in and week out knock yourself out.
Every game is different. Why do people assume 1 game's 4th quarter performance will be every games 4th quarter performance?
If anything this is the aberration, the Bills lead the NFL in average 4th quarter points and play lights put usually.
THAT should be what you think the normal performance is not a single game versus the other 10.

Knew it was going to be a tough game going in. The Chargers have some serious players. I honestly wasnt sure the Bills would come out with a win, so regardless of how they played I was glad they came away with the w.
Thought Lynn looked lost at times today which made me happy. Also thought the Chargers came across as a cocky chippy team a lot like the Titans so was very happy the Bills sent them away with a loss. On to San Fran.
Bills D held Allen in check, made Herbert look bad and flustered for much of the game and stuffed the run pretty well.
They made a few plays here and there but I was never seriously worried and the Chargers never held a lead at any point in the game.

By modern NFL standards, this game was never in any serious doubt. The Bills made it interesting because of the turnovers, but at no point did it look like LAC would actually take a lead.
I wasn't worried more because Anthony Lynn might be the worst head coach at clock management in the history of the NFL
Let’s consider permanently replacing Milano with Klein.

Exactly...the way they are using Klein the past few games has definitely allowed him to be a big contributor to the D instead of a liability.
Kudos to the defensive coaching staff for adjusting to their players.
Let's not forget lack of a true offseason this year hasn't helped with integrating new players into systems and it has had to be done on the fly...
Diggs made a seamless transition on offense but Klein struggled on D until they carved out a different role for him attacking near the LOS mainly.
