And if they are going to let Allen run, he needs to beef up his ball security. On the other hand, it has to be noted that some of the worst beating Allen took was on pass plays You mean after Josh had released the ball? More dirty crap from Greggo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You expect a rookie to have a couple issues.Especially the 1st game or 2. IMO I think he will get better and settle down after a couple games. I agree!

I just watched a game that I was never worried about. That in itself is a testament to the team and how far they've come. #17 is the man!! I will say this if Josh is ever able to clean up these fumbles, he will be a top 5 qb for a long long time in this league.....

The Wiz Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 2 minutes ago, CLTbills said: Absolutely dominating performance. Too bad the score doesn't match. Scoreboard doesn't mean everything. Defense was on point minus one gaff and then being in a soft defense late. Offense should have been better (or should i say special teams). 2 "missed" for 6 and the offense got slow because of the adjustments they made.

Starting in the 2nd quarter, it seemed like we should have been able to run the ball at will given how successful we had been in the passing game and with all the QB scrambles. But nope, the running game never really opened up. I'm kind of assuming that the Jets just decided to take the running game away, because it's not like running the ball has ever been a weakness of this team. We'll see once somebody has a chance to break down the game film better than I can. For now, my only concern is at K. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kick was very close, but how can the announcers or anyone looking at a view from the end zone tell depth perception. I'll take the refs position right under the post as having the best view. Could it be a mistake, possible, but no one can tell from the TV replays unless they have a camera on the bottom of the goal post that shows the kick which I didn't see any replays of.

Patrick Duffy Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I thought the back LBs did well after Milano and Edmunds went out. Dodson(may have mispelled) looked pretty good. Least the depth at LB looked good, so far for the 1st game anyway. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCockSportif Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I wrote something along these lines in either the first or second half threads earlier, but my expectations for the Bills, and for the rest of the league the first 6-8 games of this season, are somewhat low. I think that given the number of should-be moribund teams this year (see also: Jets, New York), the Bills should end up in a good position for a playoff run, but it's going to take a few weeks for a lack of preseason activity for things to settle down from these unusual set of circumstances. I liked a lot of what I saw today, so I won't rehash the positives that the vast majority of us saw. What I didn't like, in no specific order, was: Allen being careless with the ball in the first half / the number of runs. I'm not an Allen hater by any stretch, but my goodness. Please stop! Kicking game. Yeah, I get the rookie aspect and all, but with what seems like an all-around solid team, I do not want a repeat of the Norwood years. I'm getting old fer chrissakes. Injury bug on D. Running game looked like it took time to get going. You can win with that issue against the Jets, but against the rest of the league? Not sure that it's going to fly.

Blank Stare Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Love Boomer Esiason saying Josh plays like a bucking bronco. So true. I think Dabs needs to give strong consideration to scrapping some of the designed runs anywhere but the red zone. Those fumbles are a problem. Scrambles are fine when a play breaks down because that is such a huge part of his game, but the called QB runs between the 20s get me worried every time. Even when it works. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rc2catch Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 I’m extremely happy overall with the team and game today. I expected it to be closer and we were sloppy in some areas. Hopefully the injuries are no big deal. This is not an elite level defense without Milano and Edmunds. And shame on some of you wanting to cut Bass already. Kicking game is a lot of confidence and obviously a concerning start but cutting him after one game is silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrbojanglezs Posted September 13, 2020 Share Posted September 13, 2020 Josh had a good game except the fumbles. Also he needs to learn to set his feet/hips when he is rolling left.
