If I could sneak in and edit the title from:

 

Week 3: WFT at Bills to 

 

Week 3: WTF at Bills

 

I wonder how long that would take to get noticed. I’m not just trying to be funny, but every time I see that…….  🤷‍♀️

My brain already sees it at WTF so I wouldn't notice.

I  am looking to see  Allen to settle down and cease the happy feet.  O line can improve on pass protections.  Outside of Diggs and Beasley, they other receivers need to get open and be options.  I see this as a good test and possible game in which the offense improves.   Look to a Bills victory.

People laughed at me after last year and preseason because passing looked so easy. A GREAT team needs to be balanced! You MUST be able to run the ball, even when they know it’s coming. 

 

 

I dont think anyone would argue that but if they passed a little less and rushed the ball 20 more times for an average of 3ypc or less against that steelers front 7...how balanced really is that?  We'd all be screaming STOP RUNNING THE BALL at the TV. I can see what we were going for week 1 by trying to create as many mismatches as possible cuz their secondary only has two very good dbs but that pass rush gave Josh a case of the happy feet.

I think a lot of that has to do with what the giants were able to do to them...daniel jones had just about 100 yards rushing.  They have given up 400+ yards/game which is 25th in the league.

And his longest rush of 48yds was called back on a holding.

I would still try to run 40% of the time. Keep Young off Josh. Hope Gabe can go and focus more on him and Sanders.

Our O-Line is gonna have their hands full Sunday, WTF has a very stout D-Line. That is really the only part of their team that really concerns me TBH.

Pretty weak at linebacker though and they don't have anywhere near the skill at DB that pit or Mia have...Josh can find a hole in that front 4 and step through and make them pay with his legs...Daniel Jones ran all over them

I have been reading a lot of concern over the Washington D-line. I, too, initially had this concern.

I just read, however, that the WFT is only ranked 13th in pass rush win rate this season. It's not like they've played against great o-lines, either.

At the end of the day, I see a team that just BARELY squeaked out a win at home against a bad Giants team. The advantages that they have are 3 days more rest than the Bills and a talented (though somewhat under-performing) D-line. Aside from those, I don't really see any areas where Washington is better than the Bills.

Thomas, Gibson and McLaurin are no joke, they are probably top-20 guys at their positions.

The Washington front is being criticized for not performing well..........but we know how talented they are.........they have some added motivation to play better this Sunday.    Would rather have them coming in hot and the Bills OL being called to account.   They have allowed far too much pressure in the first two games.

Chris Simms made a good point on his podcast about the Washington defense and why they've disappointed so far. He says their starting front 4 is obviously elite, but the depth behind them is poor. So Washington isn't able to rotate their d-line which means by the 4th quarter their starting 4 are worn out. That's why McDermott likes to have so many d-linemen, he can keep them fresh for the entire game. Don't be surprised if the Bills offense starts slow before pulling away in the 2nd half.

Might be a thing to remember for this come game time if people are overreacting to us starting off slow.

 

Just post these quotes if we're trailing in the first half and we can trust that this board will calm down right away.  😜

Speaking of those blue throwbacks.........

 

I don't understand why they don't throw those throwbacks on when they have thrown every other uniform combination out there.

Does anyone know if Allen is still working with Jordon Palmer?  Did he stop working with him this off season? Maybe due to covid. He seemed to really assist him with his mechanics. After 2 games, Allen's mechanics have obviously been flawed. Maybe Palmer could help Allen get back on track. Seems odds that Allen's accuracy, footwork, and vision has deteriorated so fast. I know it's a very small sample vs good defenses. However, the Bills need a great Allen to make that Lombardi run. 

 

I heard he basically forgot everything he has learned and is starting over again due to some neurological issues that came about because of the size of his new contract.  He might even have to go back to Wyoming for a bridge year is what I am hearing.  The team was suspicious of this however and signed Trubisky. Lombardi is still in play this year.

I seem to remember reading they can only have one throwback. I'd pick the blue if that's the way it is. Blue throwbacks and Standing Buffalo helmet. Sure wish they could pull that out for the Super Bowl.

They wore blue jersey throwbacks for a couple seasons in the Losman era. They were beautiful!

i can't handle it oh no GIF

Everything is always great with these backup QBs until they play the Bills. 

 

I remember Duck for the Steelers was having a nice couple game till he played the Bills.

 

This defense is becoming the best I have seen in a while.

Vet day I believe

Pretty sure star and Cole had vet day yesterday and listed as DNP.

 

Though I'm in a time loop at this point so that could have been a different day. 

 

Edit: yea I think that was from earlier today now that I look at it.

Backup QBs always seem like they’re having great seasons until they meet the Bills defense. 
 

Brandon Allen, Devlin Hodges, Tua (last year), Justin Herbert.

 

Unless you have a fantastic line and a killer running game, Frazier’s schemes make most QBs look very mortal.

I don't think so. He has an outstanding completion percentage.

He’s 93/153 for 61% in those first three career starts.  Nice, but not eye popping. Averaging 51 attempts per start IS eye popping, however. I’d bet if it isn’t, then it’s at least near a record for most attempts in the first three starts of a career.
