I am not a ESPN fan but Steven A had it right

Two years straight he drafts a RB in the third round. They both suck. And for some reason it takes McClappy 9 games to decide to dress Breida, who very well may be the best back on the team. And while we're at it, let's not involve Gabe Davis in game plans either. The dude lit it up last season and rarely drops passes. Everything is pissing me off right now, lol. 

 

Yeah, Singletary and his 5 yards per carry are horrible.  That's definitely what's killing us.

Flame away but he's right.

 

 

You recommended it, and it was Stephen A., so I figured it'd be off the rails, and that's right. 

 

A shred or two of sense, no real over-riding point or idea and lots of empty shouting and overreaction. Basically a waste of time. Blame goes to me for even considering for a moment it might be worth watching.

A lot of these talking heads (Orlovsky, Brandt, Brees, Esiason, JayWill, Michael Robinson, and many others) backed the Bills religiously, even after the L to the Jaguars. The team is making every one of them look foolish right now and no one likes to be proven wrong or made to look like a fool. They can be bandwagon fans, we can’t. Hopefully the Bills right the ship and they’re all able to puff their chests out again with what they knew would happen: Bills will represent the AFC in the Super Bowl.

I hate to disagree but Steven is a blowhard.  What does Allen's contract got to do with anything?  Should they have put him in at DT to try to tackle Taylor?

 

Steven A's analysis here is beyond lazy.  Yesterday's game was all abut the Bills not being physical and the Colts jamming the football down their throats.  Sometimes when I hear this fool talk football I wonder if he actually knows anything about football. 

 

 

His schtick is old but it is funny listening to 2 grown men shouting over each other saying absolutely nothing. You're right,  this simply comes down to physicality,  determination and trench talent.  All of which we have very little of right now. The Jags game sums up this season.  It will get fixed but not till next year. And don't be shocked if Daboll is gone.

The Patriots signed quality free agents ,  Beanne has signed nothing but trash free agents.  Other then Beasley he has wasted loads of money and free agents and not one is a difference maker,  add his wasted draft choices and you have a team that is average 


Matt Judon was a guy I wanted and the moment I saw he went to NE I figured he was gonna do well.

Did Josh give up 185 yards rushing and 5 TDS to the same guy? Or decide to call for field goals of 57 or 59 yards in the wind and rain? Josh is the absolute least of our worries 


If your bar is to not be a worry, it’s too low.


Excuses may be comforting, but 21/35 for 209 with two ints, against a middling defense isnt good enough for the franchise qb and second highest paid player in the NFL.

Just like the OP who feels the need to start his title with "I am nod a espn fan" you decide to start with "I hate to disagree."

 

Really, do you really hate it?

Exactly, he is a difference maker.  Bills would have been far further ahead letting Milano walk and Iike his game but not a difference maker who you have to gameplan for. We need to stop just paying guy just because they are here,  it has to make sense. One step further,  why is Klein making over 6 million?  good depth guy but not changing games for you. Addison/Butler are two more free agents signings that were overpaid.  Focus in on signing guys that make big plays and then you can surround them with drafted players and lower salary free agents.  Klein/Butler/Addison all making around 6 million each,  better off signing a star for 14-15 million a season then 3 guys who do little of next to nothing.

His point was about Allen only scoring 7 points and the fact the O turned it over 3 times. Making it easy for the Colts to just keep running the ball.

 

for example when he led them down make it 14-7 the Colts temporarily lost their minds and stopped running the ball.

I actually did not know they were that slow. I knew they were slugs, but wtf were you thinking Beane?? 

 

Bean is bad at drafting, esp early when he at best gets average instead of difference makers in rd 1-2.

Yes most of his incompletions where when he was forcing it downfield when it was 31-7 did you watch the game? And then when they cut it to 31-15 what did the defense do the next drive? Here’s a hint give up another touchdown the kid is a one man offense be thankful he’s in Buffalo and he’s doing this all behind the 30th rated oline

The Colts the next drive made it 17-7 and then Isiah fumbled the kickoff and then the ball at the 2 I doubt he even watched the game

That’s right, because they stopped running. If (as Steven A says) come back and get another TD ITS STILL 24-14.. the point is the O was just as bad as the D and most of the money is spent on the O.

Yeah I watched him force a deep in to double covered Davis instead of hitting wide open sanders or allowing Diggs to come free across the middle opting for an INT. 
 

I watched him throw off target to knox, Beasley, Gabe, Moss on easy gimme passes. 
 

I watched another in accurate forced pass into double coverage for another INT. 

 

I watched 5 drives with zero points, two ints that led to 14 opposing points.
 

I’ve been told for 20 years the QB was the thing we need. Now with the second most expensive one, not a rookie anymore the Kid gloves are off. Time for the man to start delivering.
 

Expecting him to win games isn’t asking home to be an overachiever.  He’s yet to beat a good defense or win a tight game for the team this season. 
 

He failed in the big moment vs Tennessee, couldn’t score a single TD vs Jacksonville, and was was a more turnover Prones Tyrod Taylor level player vs the colts.  
 

It’s a very disappointing pattern and inarguable. It better turn around or you can expect the Jared Goff Comparisons coming soon.

That one season of not being a contender must have been tough for Pats nation eh?

Yeah- they’ve build a really expensive ‘good’ team that can really lay it on bad QBs and some marginal defenses.

Not really, they were ina lot of games the only hard part was watching Newton either sale the ball 5 ft over the receivers head or put it into the ground 2 yards in front of them.. that was frustrating.. but nothing will ever be as bad as 1992 and 1993 when we thought we actually may lose the team to of all places St Louis.
