TheFunPolice Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 We've got the right combo on the OL and they are finally giving Singletary the touches he needs to get rolling (again) like he did early in his career. I'm not saying Singletary is a top 10 RB, but he's plenty good enough to be your #1 guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That argument no longer makes sense considering many teams use this as an added dimension to their offense now. Stop fighting the urge to go back to the 70s run game and embrace it.

The Pats wouldn't have come close to being a dynasty without Brady. Packers are loaded at almost every position, which is why it's nuts that Rodgers would want to leave there. Not only that but they're about to get a very good WR (Cobb) both starting tackles, their best OLB, and a starting corner back, and maybe their starting center. They've played most of the season without all those guys on the field at once. Chiefs though are very top heavy with a handful of amazing players and a lot of whoevers.

I think Dawkins is starting to finally get back into form after going through a bad case of Covid, and that is also helping, as is our rookie RT getting more settled in. I would say the Bills OL is NFL average, maybe a touch above when everyone is healthy and in the right spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Punching Bag Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 2 hours ago, Greg S said: On Monday, Saleh reflected on his first season with the Jets and touched on one interesting topic: Who is the best team he faced in his first year in charge? His choice was the Bills. “They all present different challenges, right? Buffalo is probably the most complete team when you look quarterback, run game, pass game, their defense is ridiculous,” Saleh said via The Michael Kay Show. “I’d probably say Buffalo. They’re complete. They’ve got everything, heck of a coaching staff. They’re sound, they’re explosive. Really, really, talented group.” He knew that already from facing Bills last year with 49ers except RB got a bit better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 (edited) The glaring weakness on the Bills is the Oline. Any team with a stout front four will give and has given Buffalo fits this season. The Bills will go as far as the Bills Oline lets them. It really is that simple. They play well, deep playoff run, they play poorly, Josh and Motor play poorly and the run will be short. The D will keep them in games. Can the Oline? Edited January 12, 2022 by wjag 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's in love with Josh's arm and calls too many pass plays. We have a good run game and a good O line, we just need to utilize it more! Running is for teams that don't want points and have to 'control the clock' to keep the other team from scoring points. 99% of 'electric' and 'high caliber offenses throw the ball.

That's (IMO) why Brady chose the Bucs. He knew the AFC was much tougher in terms of getting to the Super Bowl, and you've got to get to them to win them, If Rodgers was even .500 in NFC title games he would have played in 3 Super Bowls already. NFC North is a wasteland. AFC West would be Mahomes, Herbert and even Carr/Raiders 2x a year, plus now Rodgers. That's insane! NFC has like 3 or 4 good QBs. AFC West alone would have 4 if he went there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FilthyBeast Posted January 12, 2022 Share Posted January 12, 2022 Definitely an interesting comment considering he also faced Belichink and the Pats twice and the Bucs/Brady. McDermott is 11-1 against the division the last two years which is damn impressive and a strong indicator that leans in the Bills favor heading into this game against the Pats.

As happy as I was in that moment, the fact Brady still has SEVEN freaking rings, yet that wasn't one of them actually bothers me 😂 People around here like to think back to the Bills vs Giants SB & wonder "How did Hostetler miraculously hold onto that ball?! If only it was a fumble recovery for a TD instead of a Safety, Bills win." In the same way, every time I see that absolute prayer of a play from SB XLII... I think "what absolute stupid luck, wow!" Eli somehow escapes from the literal clutches of several hands, evading near-certain sacks, then chunks it up 40 yards to Tyree (a relative "no-name" guy) who catches it while completely covered WITH THE SIDE OF HIS HELMET & ONE HAND! All with like 1 min left... And if that wasn't crazy enough, they proceed to score a TD on 4th & 11 to seal it. I know, nobody here is going to cry for the Pats or Brady. My feelings are probably more in regards to the Giants anyway. Never liked them in the first place, always thought they were the inferior team, had direct intervention from God himself, & now they're iconic for sending a bunch of 19-0 shirts to poor kids in Africa. Blegh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, not even them. Really think that team was only three points better than the 8-8 Eagles that year. Only three points better than the 5-11 Ravens? Same with the 1972 Dolphins. Even winning every game doesn't mean you played up to your talent level every game. Was that Fins team only two points better than the 7-7 Vikes? One point better than the 4-9-1 Bills? Four points better than the 7-7 Jets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
