berg1029 Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Okay, there were obviously a lot of negatives from the game. But what about the few things that they actually did right? From my point of view: Run defense looked improved Tremaine Edmunds looked sharp from what I could see. He made a few plays Marcus Murphy returning kickoffs looked dangerous Bojorquez (spelling?) seemed to do a decent job punting Anything else?

Nick the Greek Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Good thing we have a good punter. We will be using him a LOT this season. Reminds me of the days Brian Moorman was our best player. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boatdrinks Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Zero positives to take out of this. An absolute smack down that resembled Ohio State vs the little sisters of the poor.

I didn't mean you specifically are a loser, but I could see how it could come across that way. My bad. It's just how I feel about the team, sure some guys were solid but I don't want to hear anyone being praised after today by people associated with the team. They're losers if they do that in my opinion. Again, I could be wrong, but I feel like you interpreted it as me calling you specifically a loser. Which wasn't my intention at all. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if they lost 100 to 0 there could still be some positives that come from it. No one is using it as excuses, or coddling players with it.

Again check my other post, I can understand why it would appear I'm calling the OP a loser but I genuinely was not. It's my fault for not being clearer. But for the rest of it, no, I saw no positives out of it. If I could have predicted that I would have done something else. I find it funny you continue on this tirade that even if they lost 100-0 You could still find positives but have yet to mention one.

Strongly disagree on the improvement of run D Yeah, I mean we maybe saw glimpses of potential improvement early but one thing never fails........when a team is getting outplayed and outcoached they start making business decisions. Wasn't very long into the game and the defense was already trying to stay in front of their legs so they didn't get rolled up on and that was tacking on yardage to carry after carry in the second half.

Yep. The team kind of gave up after the first quarter. Surely there were individual plays made. And a bunch of guys trying. But both offense and defense looked like Nate looked. Shell shocked.

Freddie's Dead Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Biggest positive is that Josh Allen is now the starting QB of the Bills, even if McD doesn't say so. He might idiotically cling to Pickerman for one more week, but if he doesn't make the switch soon, he may not be here much longer. What an unmitigated disaster of a gameplan. Reminded me of Gailey saddling up Fitz instead of giving the ball to Lynch and Fred. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RussellDopeland Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 1. Edmunds 2. Allen made it through the game without injury. 3. No one died 4. The Bills made it out of Baltimore, the venereal disease capital of the US, without incident (we hope). 5. And with a franchise known for four straight Super Bowl defeats, and its greatest player being suspected of double homicide...Peterman isn't necessarily the worst thing in Bills history. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
