Mills would’ve had a better rating throwing the ball in the dirt every play.

 

They should switch to the Peterman scale once QBR hits 0.

 

.8 can be a 92.

 

Maybe a bit more merciful. Kid really did get thrown to the wolves.

     Also can upgrade via FA, I'd expect top FA have buffalo high on their list of where they'd sign if they are after a ring above anything.  That's the reason why I'm glad beane has a quality staff of talent evaluators.  They get the right players with the right mindsets to fit right in.  Not all pan out but they seem to move on from players at right time as well as stick with those that just needed a lil more time to develop as in Knox.  Dunno if Cody Ford will get better but I do trust the coaches to know whether he needs to be replaced once they feel he's reached his ceiling and how it measures up to what they need at his position. 

 

It is true that another benefit of having a stable franchise and great QB is the quality of free agents the Bills attract.

 

Smoke, Diggs, Sanders, Trubiski...

 

I can remember when free agents ran away from Buffalo like it was a dumpster fire of disposable diapers.

 

A lot has changed.

Love that Buffalo feels like football camp for a lot of players. Come to Buffalo, focus on football, focus on yourself and be your best you. All goes well you leave with a ring.

Maybe so but some Canadian Culture moves into and becomes part of Buffalo and WNY.    
 

Tim Horton’s is much bigger than Dunkin in WNY.  Just drive around Erie county and you can see that.  
 

There are over 220 Hortons in WNY vs ~36 Dunkins in the Buffalo area.  

Buffalo is Tim Horton’s. Rochester is Dunkin. The game was in Buffalo so Beth’s reference was fine. (Not responding to you directly btw)

Yeah, for sure. Don't go in there and play scared. I truly think we are the favorite going in. I'm not "scared" like I was in years past going against them. I truly feel like right now, the Bills are the best team in the AFC hands down. 

We will know for sure one week from now.

kc is favored by 3

That is the betting line - which is based on how the sportsbooks think people will bet - and people bet on KC. And even then, the rule of thumb is that the home team always gets 3. So at KC by 3, that means the two would be straight up on a neutral field. I believe that 3 point spread will drop by tomorrow after we won 40-0, and KC won, but gave up 30 to the EAGLES.

With the weather I don't know if I could ask for a better performance.  The ground game was solid, Allen was solid and made some tough plays.

 

The defense dominated. I know they are supposed to dominate games like this but this was a beating that's above and beyond what's expected.  They've made teams look silly this year, it's so fun to watch.

Sure, the statue respects his HOCKEY contributions.

 

But his coffee is second rate and only tastes good when you pollute it with double sugar and double cream.

 

Dunkin has superior coffee. It deeply saddens me to say they are a New England company.

Say what you will, but McDonalds coffee is shockingly excellent! :w00t:

Nick Wright tweeted that no ones gonna care about our shut outs after we go to KC and get beat down next week lmao…. Man I hope we crush those mother ####### and shut that d face up once and for all….

yea cant stand him. such a chiefs homer. but I dont like our matchup. Their D line will beat our O line up which will affect josh. the dbs will hold our WRs and refs will not throw em in arrowhead. and our D doesnt match up speed wise vs their O. We still dont have any pass rusher that can straight up BEAT their man to get to qb consistently. 

 

hope im wrong

Today wasn’t huge anything.  McD has always played the players who earn it during the week.  Just because YOU don’t see what goes on during the week doesn’t mean you know jack schitttt.  Ford struggled mightily last week.  They made a change.  It’s nothing out of the ordinary and nothing we shouldn’t expect.

 

I’m pretty sick and tired of the armchair know-it-alls who really know NOTHING about what happens each week and base all of their opinions on the 3 hours they spend drooling in front of the TV each Sunday.

 

When it comes to offense, I  agree.  Josh had a shade under 250 yards, a very nice day, but it's not going to raise too many eyebrows.  The run game was quite a bit more productive than is typical in this day and age, but it was the result of a rotation rather than one dominant running back.   Buffalo did, however, have a huge day on defense.  Granted it was against  a rookie QB, and not one what enjoyed any hype coming out of college.  Still, in some ways it was historically good.  One of those elements was takeaways.  I would guess that after this week, Buffalo will be in the lead or very close to it in turnover ratio.

I thought Buffalo's offense played great.  They scored 40 points, had 450 yards, 26 first downs and had over 38 minutes TOP.

Ignore that little runt. Half his audience is just pissed off Bills fans that are upset about what he says. He’s playing everyone.

I just hope the coaching staff doesn't over think this game. I feel like the 1st cheifs game last year, they way over thought the game plan, and in the afc championship game, I'm not exactly sure what there plan was. 

We don't have to do anything extraordinary this time. No committing to either the run or pass, we have a dline that can deal with the running game or passing game equally well. I'd be shocked to see a repeat of last season.
