TroutDog Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 34 minutes ago, SageAgainstTheMachine said: The NFL has a real defense problem on its hands. There's more scoring than ever and it's passed the tipping point where it's now making the game generally less entertaining than when there was balance. Like many things in today’s world, it’s pandering to the lowest common denominator. People who don’t understand the game view the high scores as more fun to watch. The NFL knows this and is propagating it via rules and what’s called/not called. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones has actually played better than I expected to this point in his career but I still thought 6 was very high for him. He does some nice things but he’s a walking turnover.

SageAgainstTheMachine Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Just now, Mr. WEO said: Would you rather have a Bills team that gives up 25 a game but scores 31 or one that gives up 16 but only scores 19? The math is pretty easy on this one, I think... I see what you're saying but my experience watching the Bills is different than watching any other game. I like watching the Bills win in shootouts because those are the types you need to win on the way to a SB in the modern NFL. But generally speaking I really enjoy 20-17 type games with good play on both sides of the ball and a few well earned splash plays. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the others and I around here got laughed at for even just suggesting they COULD be at least a 7-9 team in 2020. with 8 minutes left they had a little bit of pee coming out of the Seahawks. ask the Niners, NFC Champs, how bad they think they are.

Dont Stop Billeiving Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Examining our last three opponents (all Bills wins) and their performances today: - Miami: currently dominating San Fran and making Jimmy G look as bad as I've ever seen him. - LA Rams: outplayed THE Football Team in all three phases and scored at will. Now 4-1. - Vegas: put up 40 points and handed the Chiefs their first loss in almost a full calendar year. Should note that Ruggs and Trent Brown were back and made an impact after missing our game, but Carr, Jacobs, and Waller all went off. The Bills wins and schedule in 2020 feel a lot better than the 2019 version so far. Also, the quality of these opponents may help explain some of the defensive struggles we've had. Hopefully we can keep stacking wins as we move forward into an even tougher part of our schedule, but seeing the success of our previous opponents gives me hope. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freddie's Dead Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 CBS so busy with replays they miss the fake FG. To top it off, they don't even have a good replay of the penalty calling back the TD. DO YOUR JOB CBS!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dont Stop Billeiving Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 With their incredible talent on offense, Cleveland should literally score 40+ points every game (like last week) and set multiple records.
