wvbillsfan Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 Can’t wait to get this game and win under our belt. The sky is falling around here after two losses to really good teams. Plus it’s a Sunday game and we usually play better on Sunday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at how he's playing...he looks LOST. I have no doubt that that shoulder is causing hesitation and even a lack of confidence, but right now he's hurting us out there a whole heckuva lot more than helping us. I pray Beane is doing his due diligence and desperately seeking a LB (or three) to bring in, because Edmunds is hurting us right now. If it's that bad Frazier then please sit him and find us a stopgap until he's back to 100%(or close to it).

HappyDays Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 This game is the free square on a bingo card. My excitement level is equivalent to that of a preseason game. I just hope Allen finds himself again in this one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah if they can manage to split with the Pats I’d be happy. They have owned the Bills far worse than they have the Jets and the Dolphins always seem to win games against them.

If we're playing a guy who is so injured it is noticeably affecting his play, we need to do something - make a trade, scour some practice squads if our backup options are so limited. Change the scheme up. Do something. Thought experiment: Josh Allen was clearly injured during the Raiders game. He has been wearing a brace since. How would we feel about it if that were offered by Daboll as a reason for his lesser performances against Tennessee and KC? I don't think the reaction would be very positive around here. Edmunds is out there to deliver a certain level of play. If he can't due to the pain of the injury, he shouldn't be out there. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptide Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 If bills fans are losing their minds over our 2 losses, I can only imagine Patriots fans must be jumping off bridges with their team being 2-3 and having a losing record for the first time since 2002 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kenosha2Buffalo Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 5-2 would sure feel nice! Even though you wouldn't be able to tell around here lol. Hope they can establish some sort of run game and our defense can manage to look above average against a bad offense in the jets. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you not remember how we got taken to the wood shed in 2017 with the Chargers and Saints? Guess what? We fixed the issues and improved. Same thing last year when the Eagles ran 200+ yards against us. The next week, AD had I believe 90 or so yards at half time.

SCBills Posted October 21, 2020 Share Posted October 21, 2020 I’d love to see us hold Brown out of this game, as he’s clearly hobbled rn, and bring up Duke. I know we all roll our eyes at the Duke hype because he failed as a WR1 in the Texans playoff game, but he’s more than capable of being WR3/4. If we’re all about going 4 WR spread, we kind of need more than 4 WR’s on the active gameday roster.. McKenzie/Roberts are not legitimate WRs.

I agree that it may be a good idea to hold Brown out for the longer term gain of getting him healthy sooner. If he's out Davis would be the WR3, so I'd be fine mixing Duke in for say 10-15 plays in a 4th WR role. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just realized I've wasted a lot of time on the Bills with little return. Another post showed the last playoff win by the Bills in 95, I remember that game but 25 years, when you say it like that it's very, very depressing.
