He’s certainly played well at times. He does have a pretty long resume of mediocrity though. Flacco has been brilliant at times too. I’d sign up to play against a “Flacco-led” team 16 times a year.

 

oh no, the postmortem has started already....  :(

Wow.  A ton of folks here already giving the Bills the "W".  I'll admit, I like the news, too, but, we've seen this happen before.  A team with no business winning a game against BUF or it's dog fight to the end.

 

I myself, am trying not to jinx it.  Let's just get to 6-2.

What is mcds record vs rookie qbs?

I honestly don't think he has faced a rookie QB since he became HC.  Am I missing someone?  I feel like I am.

 

EDIT:

2nd Jets game last year.  I thought Darnold missed both games but he only missed the first one.

 

So he is 0-1 vs rookie QBs.

I’ve seen too many rookies come in and look good to start until teams get enough film on them. Plus if the rest of the Redskins like the kid they are going to give that little extra. 

This doesn’t change my opinion on the game. It’s not like the starter was Brady or Brees. Heck look what Teddy did with NO.

Should resemble much like that of the Giants game. We are the better team across the board and it will show. The Miami game was a fluke division game where fitz played pretty well for most of it. Philly is a better team then their record showed. Bills will win this one big and everyone will be back on the wagon and shouting superbowl again...

I agree 100% with your take!

Hopefully this won't be one of those instances where an inexperienced/backup QB catches fire. We've seen that happen before.

 

Read some stuff the other day that said Haskins has really struggled to learn the playbook. So much so that they're having trouble finding ways to teach him. I don't think that bodes well for their game plan, seems like they'll be limited to pretty standard/basic designs. Bills should be ready.

I know that I’m in the minority and an admitted OSU homer but I’d prefer Keenum. I preferred Eli to Daniel Jones for the same reason. Give me the less talented guy with a resume of mediocrity (or in Eli’s case washed up). I don’t think it will matter this week but I’m positive Keenum wouldn’t beat us. 

I think this news causes Daboll to go more vanilla (conservative).

Although this is a great story. I am more concerned with how our offense responds after last week. The offense needs to come out strong and demonstrate they can execute at a high level against inferior competition. The defense should have a great game, but if the offense takes care of business we should win this game running away.

But Daboll???

I think the D will be fine, it’s the offense that is most concerning imo. They really do need to show who’s boss in this game. I would like to see three TD passes and more from the Bills, but mostly I just want a win. 

 

Go Bills!!!

get the list of Bills portmortem excuses piled to the moon ready to roll....    :(

 

 

 

If the Bills win Sunday vs Washington:

 

We are back on track!  This was a turning point in our season.  We will go 12-4 and secure a playoff spot.  Josh is the best qb in the class of "18".

 

Extend Beane and McDermott.  Bills are AWESOME!!!

 

If the Bills lose to Washington:

 

This team stinks!  Josh is a bust.  Captain clappy needs to go.  He is lost.  We will be lucky to be 7-9.  Another typical year for the Bills.

 

The Pegulas should sell the team.

For the love of God do not allow this kid to have a good game. This defense better have an amazing game against a kid who looks horrible and should not do ***** against this defense.

The Bills should not allow this guy any early success, which will just give him confidence. Get after him early & force him to make quick decisions.

is he playing???? last I knew he wasn't part of the 53.

Offensive will be using the "17 point" game book.  Any points scored more than that will need to be scored by the defense.

 

I hope I'm wrong.
