Week 9: Bills at Jets - Sunday Nov. 6th 1pm

CJ Mosley on Bills QB Josh Allen's signature move to leap over defenders:

“If you think about it, it’s going to happen, right?” Mosley said. “So just go in with the mindset like, ‘Hey, MF’er might jump over me. So what? Next man go pop him out the air.’
"Once he gets out of the pocket you’ve got to go plaster him, you’ve just got to go get him.”
 

That’s actually one of my concerns- that a defender will bait him into hurdling by looking like he’s going for the low tackle, and once Josh is airborne, the defender stands up and turns Josh into a human cartwheel. 
In the past, the element of surprise has allowed his hurdles to be successful, but with a higher profile these days and being recognized as a jumper, Josh might be wise to put that move on ice before he ends up with a Don Beebe-like head bounce.

Rhetorical question 

what idiot thought this is actually something critical?

they ONLY played 1 division opponent in 8 weeks 

 

lead off with a 🔥 hot take 

then show a graphic that may not catch the eye  

trying to make Buffalo look bad for it?

 

 

The key words in the meme: ‘divisional leader’.

I think they have a lot more to worry about then being hurdle by Josh Allen  , but if they want to spend time in practice preparing for that not to happen then please by all means !!

Same here in Cbus. Soak it in, winter is coming 😭

[BearNorth]

I am a bit concerned that the Jest's biggest strength, their D-line is matched up with our pedestrian O-line.  Quessenberry will have to rise to the occasion.

 

Josh may have to have his Houdini act in high gear. 

 

Diggs will be a good test for Sauce, but the Jets have three solid corners, and Davis & McKenzie will have tough matchups all day.

 

Hopefully our O-line can get enough of a push to get Motor to the Jet's backers who are the weak link in their D.

 

Their Offense is to put it kindly mediocre.  Hopefully Phillips will atone for his stinker against GB. 

 

No Poyer leaves us exposed to the deep ball, if Z. Wilson has time, and G. Wilson and Elam should engage in the first of what is likely to be many encounters over the next few years. 

 

Hoping that Milano is well enough to be effective, he's our heat-seeking missile out there.

 

I suspect the Jets will cover, and we can't afford to be looking ahead to Minny next week.

Cbus? I'm sorry! Hopefully someone will share their blunt at the Greyhound station.

 

Oh crap, I'm probably gonna get bounced for another year and a half...I thought it was funny....

Outsurgery, no?

 

Yes, but that depends on the surgery actually happening in a timely manner.  It was supposed to happen yesterday.  It was supposed to happen earlier today.  It's almost 9pm now with still no solid word on when it's happening and nobody knows where the surgeon is.

[947]

Jets play primarily Zone D. Mckenzie is good vs Man, but struggles vs Zone. Hopefully we see more of Shakir this week.

I think it's kind of "par for the course" for news these days

Try to come up with something that sounds problematic or serious, without putting it in context in order to generate context

 

Ooooh...the Bills are the ONLY DIVISIONAL LEADER THAT HASN"T WON A DIVISIONAL GAME

We're also the only divisional leader that has only played one divisional game

 

DID YOU KNOW STEFON DIGGS PUT UP ZERO YARDS OR RECEPTIONS VS JAIRE ALEXANDER?????...

...

...

...(because he defended other receivers)...

The only way the Jets win this game is if Josh Allen is playing QB for them and Zack Wilson is for us ,

However I'm  hoping they played with the Hart, 6th lineman to tune it up for when needed......like now.

Offensive line is a worry every game…. Specifically at tackle and Guard.

 

Overall the Oline has been fairly decent. I believe they are quite a bit better than some seem to suggest. I know there are areas that need to improve for sure. You mentioned specifically T and G....Specifically the last 2 games with S. Brown out, it looked to me DQ was better in both pass and run blocking. 

 

While there's definitely room for improvement, I just don't feel it's as terrible as some make it out to be. Would you say the Oline so far is better or worse than last season?

Well, Hey, Joe B called the score in Packers-Bills to the point

 

Quote

Prediction: Bills 30, Jets 12

Although I have the Bills scoring 30 points, it’s with a healthy respect for the Jets’ defense being able to limit some drives to field goals rather than a touchdown frenzy. The Jets’ defensive line could get in the backfield and force some early frustrations for Allen for what some might think is a slow start, but the Jets can be that good defensively if they’re playing up to their talent. The lead could build, though, if the Bills’ defense can get to Zach Wilson, which they have all the potential to do.

 

The Bills boast a great pressure rate with their front four and are up against a struggling Jets offensive line, while also going against Wilson, who comes apart at the seams when there is pressure. That pressure could lead to shortened fields for the Bills and higher percentage opportunities for touchdowns. I wouldn’t be surprised to see a three-score lead heading into the fourth quarter, with garbage-time touchdowns and the Jets trying for two-point conversions from that point forward. Overall, I think the Bills can win pretty handily, even with a “slow” start on offense.

Yeah.  There were reasons why after Josh hurdled in the Vikings game, wiser heads like Jerry Hughes and Zo Alexander said something to the effect of "that was Awesome.  Never Do That Again."

With Poyer out, it will be interesting to see what Buffalo does at safety.  Obviously, Hamlin is going to continue sub for Hyde.  I expect Johnson will probably start in place of Poyer, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Dean Marlowe and Cam Lewis get some snaps.  Actually, Cam Lewis is listed as Poyer's backup on the Bills' web site.  It hasn't been updated to show how Marlowe fits into their thinking.

Just woke up from surgery.  My pee hole hurts.  I'm going to play table tennis later today and then watch the Bills tomorrow.  I'm hungry and this ginger ale is pretty good.

Just wanted to check page 25 for Injury reports.  Thanks you old timer 1 thread people.  I go through this bs every week. I think if it were up to you guys there would be a year 2022 Buffalo Bills thread and it would be the only thread of the season.  I do this bs every week and its ridiculous not to have other threads

Start one! There are 3 injury reports per weekly thread including the final. Sometimes there is a separate injury thread if we have a ton.

There is a likelihood, granted a small likelihood, that this is the greatest post in the TSW’s 20 or so year history.

 

The Wall’s checkers should be able to verify this quickly but I am comfortable in awarding it here.

 

I love it.

 

God bless, get well my friend, and go Bills.

Agree on Quessenberry… looks a lot better than Brown who has been bad. 
 

I think the line has been up and down… their worse game was @Miami(with a few injuries) and it’s no coincidence offensively they only put up 17 points that game. 
 

Overall, I think the line looks better than last season because Allen has gotten even better then he already was at avoiding the rush and feeling pressure’s…. It’s still a pedestrian at best unit IMO. 

 

I agree the line has been up and down. I’d like to see more consistency, and I think we are starting to see the Kromer effect, finally. I’m not an O-line guru by any stretch but I think the pass blocking has been above average and the run blocking started off crap (zone) and is getting better (gap), just like last year. I hope it continues. Spencer Brown has popped up on my radar. Idk if this is going to be one of those years where he’s dinged up constantly and that is affecting his play, or if he’s reached his ceiling which isn’t good enough. I’m sure McD is going to give him plenty of chances to improve and solidify that right side.

3 of the 5 preferred starters on oline missed time in the Miami game. 
Quessenberry looks like a serviceable swing tackle. Brown has a far greater ceiling.

I don't think he's anywhere near his ceiling, but I'm starting to worry he's gonna be one of those guys who is playing injured too often to reach it.

I think on the long-term development though, we gotta give him one un-injured off season to see what we got.  He had back surgery last off season.

I have thought about this over the years...

With a number of threads (not all) it is actually much more relevant to keep track of things by TIME or DATE, and not SUBJECT.

 

It can make finding some types of information a hell of a lot easier.

 

When it's all piled into 1 giant thread, especially with the amount of garbage in ALL threads here, it make finding timely information almost impossible, or at least very difficult. 

 

I think this your basic gripe; I agree with it.

They are plenty of free and paid websites where you can find exactly whatever it is you’re looking for.  Relying on a discussion board for your specific information needs is like shopping at a garage sale instead of Amazon.
