Big Turk

We have any indication yet on Metcalf?

And Josh Allen's GF plays Emily in Pitch Perfect 2 and 3... full scene of above

Hahaha...they are references to the movie Pitch Perfect... there was an acapella group called "The Barden Bellas"

Think that is something that improves on as the year goes on and they see more stuff and have to figure it out. They got some new pieces in there and a guy playing a new position so the working as a 5 man unit piece usually is going to take a bit of time to fully develop.

Mostly it was caused by confusion, simulated pressure and the Bills not figuring out who was actually coming versus who wasn't which created overload pressures repeatedly on one side that couldn't be blocked with the numbers the Bills had assigned to block.

Wait...is he a Barden Bella? Or just a Bella? 😂

He's walking to the South, out of Roanoke, He caught a trucker out of Philly, had a nice long toke, But he's heading west from the Cumberland Gap... To Johnson City, Tennessee... He's gotta get a move on, before the sun, He hears his baby callin' his name and he knows that she's the only one... And if he died in Raleigh, at least he will die free..

SMFH

WTF? Was he even out of the game at any point with an injury? I swear the Bills get more mystery injuries during the week than any team in the NFL.

Ouch...that is tough

Rich Gannon with the Raiders

Mahomes has been throwing brutal interceptions for a year and a half now. It just never gets mentioned because it's Mahomes. He also has thrown more TD passes under 5 yards than anyone in the NFL over the last 4 years. Essentially Reid gives him a lot of easy button throws, especially in the red zone. Allen doesn't get nearly as many although Brady is doing a much better job of scheming guys open than anyone else did.

Allen is every bit as good as Mahomes. What Allen does not have is a version of himself on defense like Mahomes has in Chris Jones who takes over and makes game changing plays late in the 4th quarter in big playoff games. Also, have you watched Mahomes most of the last year and a half? He has sucked in at least half of those games.

That's not Big Nickel... Big Nickel is when you have a larger safety type player essentially playing as a 3rd LB. We play nickel as our base defense because Taron Johnson is such a good run defender in the slot it allows them to typically match up well enough to play with lighter boxes so they can play 2 high safeties and disguise coverages.

Interesting video about this stuff... Essentially on D, they say that we usually play a "Nickel Over Front" aligned to the strong side almost exclusively and that allows teams to create scripted plays starting games that let them have early success. Then talk and show some adjustments they make within it that helps them improve significantly as the game goes on.

Surprised he just didn't take the time off...he is still getting paid...unless there was no offset language in his contract, which means he is getting paid AND getting more money from the Packers. Otherwise he is essentially working for free since he will have his pay reduced from the Jets by whatever the Packers are paying him. I mean I get it...he has always been great at what he does and for the first time in his life he probably feels like a failure at his job. Wants to prove he isn't and get the bad taste out of his mouth ASAP.

Exactly...this isn't really a thing. Except maybe on TV or in the movies. If the coach needs to get players pumped up to be professionals and do their job they probably got the wrong players and the players probably are in the wrong profession.

I am assuming the "3rd element" was not satisfied until he made a "football move" of some sort or got a 3rd foot down and that the ball started moving during the process of that happening. Only thing I can think of but I agree...it should be a TD once it crosses the front plane of the goalline with 2 feet down and possession.

Everyone is playing dinged up this time of year to some degree or another That's the same as I said in the predict the score thread! 😎

Samuel is much more than a gadget guy...he is a viable #3 WR in the league, unsure why Brady hasn't gotten much out of him or used him in that role more. He got a lot out of him in Carolina, not so much yet here. Yeah, he wasn't...but when he is it will make things even easier for him. He is starting to figure things out and is starting to look like the player the Bills thought they were getting.

Cooper is going to open things up for Coleman so much...he now gets the #2 CB instead of the other teams #1 CB... This offense might be more dangerous than ever before with the mix of weapons they have and how good they are with the run game.

Falcons looked good? They got blown out at home by the Seahawks. You sure you aren't thinking of someone else? Honestly these are all tough because you are playing with a lot of unknown variables thrown into the mix for each game. Mayfield down his top 2 WR's and we have no idea how that will neuter the offense or when. Can they make something work for a game or two before DC's catch up with what they are doing? No idea. Tua coming off a long absence and no guarantee he stays healthy for any length of time. Essentially he is series to series. Rattler has mostly looked meh. Had a good game or two but he looked terrible against Denver and the Chargers D is better than theirs, at least in terms of not allowing points. Chargers can't score tho, but the Saints defense is decimated by injuries so is this the game they put up some points? I would honestly stay away from all of them. Sometimes the biggest win you'll have is knowing when to stay out of games, similar to when daytrading and staying out of the market.

It's simple...guys get more comfortable in their roles and playing together with each other. Happens all the time over the course of the season with the Bills and throughout the league. There are a lot of new faces on D all playing together for the first time. Gonna take time to gel...being out of position by a yard or two or slow to react to something by a half second can make the difference between plays being made and not being made.
