Eli still looks like a functional QB when he has OL protection and time to throw, as he did last week. So then the question becomes did they fix his OL, or is Dallas D just not "all that"? Fixed the offensive line and it looked pretty good against Dallas pass rush Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you turn out to be Adam Schein, I hope you don't get your panties in a wad with fan comments and leave because it's finally quieted down since the last whiny-ass sports writer got his panties twisted here. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aristocrat Posted September 14, 2019 Share Posted September 14, 2019 sad eli has gone out like this with poor coaching and management. his defenses have been trash for the last decade along with the o line. he deserved better but that's what happens.

Technically, Peyton won one and then 3/4 Peyton won the other... the second one happened after his arm fell off. Not sure if that means he gets 133% of the credit he’s due, or if 25% just gets tacked on to Von Miller... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are very solid everywhere on the defensive line and have arguably the best LB corp in the game in Smith/Vander Esch/Lee. They were a top 10 unit last year hands down. Weak in the secondary and I imagine that's where Daboll will look to exploit them. This game will very much come down to playcalling and Allen having a good day. Singletary and Gore are not going to be able to run against those LBs imo...we might see Yeldon getting snaps, and if Brown can get open there will be opportunities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iinii Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 Although probably some merit to this, barring injury Eli more than likely hangs around a few more games. I doubt he wants to sit until the Giants are technically out of it. He may have little choice after this week’s beatdown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buffalo Bills Fan Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 4 hours ago, Utah John said: I stand corrected about Peyton Manning, for my money the best QB ever. Thanks for pointing that out. As for Eli's arm, he did OK last week without much help from WRs. He is still dangerous. Right Eli is still pretty good. Can still get's lots of yards throwing but don't turn it into TDS and a really bad D past few years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stinky finger Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 3 hours ago, CommonCents said: I don’t have any hate towards Eli, 2007 SB was one of my greatest sports moments. We had just picked up my brother from boot camp. He was home for a few weeks, him and I got to watch Eli sink the Pats in the heart of NE. Tomorrow very well might be the end of him but he shouldn’t even being starting anyways. Two weeks in a row, Eli and Dalton, hard to hate either of them. Plenty of hate brewing for week 4. This. I owe a debt of gratitude to Eli and the Giants - for 2 reasons in different seasons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicabills321 Posted September 15, 2019 Share Posted September 15, 2019 "...we're moving on to Cincinnati..." After a w this week. Surprisingly, I am more concerned about the home opener. That is the type of game the past bills tended to lose. Tbh, I am already sold on this season. A loss tomorrow or week 3 doesn't impact my buy in but for the first time in a long time I expect the bills to outperform both week 2 and 3 opponents.

I met him at the Manning Passing Academy a few years ago. He is just a great guy off the field too,” Allen said. “He is somebody young quarterbacks can look up to and just as far as how you model yourself as an NFL quarterback. He is super respected around the league and that is for a reason. He has played at a high level for such a long time, so it will be kind of fun to match up against him.” 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
