SoCal Deek Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 Wrap your head around this for a second. It is forecasted to be 50 degrees warmer in Chicago next Saturday. Can’t catch a scheduling break this year. Guess we’ll just have to win! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ralonzo Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 How did I miss the Bills bringing Kingsley Jonathan back to the PS from Chicago? Quick, sign him to the 53 and send Cam Lewis to the home locker room Saturday morning. 9 hours ago, Bills!Win! said: Who else is on the bears besides Justin fields? David Montgomery who got drafted RIGHT in front of Motor and who I'm pretty sure the Bills wanted to take in that slot. Cole Kmet at tight end, Khalil Herbert has been strong at RB this year and is projected to return from injury this week, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am actually strongly considering grabbing Herbert off the waiver wire and starting him this week in fantasy. He is really good when healthy. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if they will do a walk through somewhere (hotel ballroom?!) McDermott said they wanted to do a walkthrough, and they would do it in a hotel ballroom if no other space were available. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fergie's ire Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 4 hours ago, fergie's ire said: Is it just me or is the "we don't adjust and always stay in the same nickel defense" the new "Josh is inaccurate." It is a statement that I hear over and over again that is, well, inaccurate. Every time we have a team run on us (Green Bay, Miami), we hear "power running teams are going to destroy us." Yeah...that's why teams like Cleveland with Chub, or Tennessee with Henry, or the Patriots with Stevenson, or Jets with Zonovan Knight have each racked up like 500 yards rushing against us. Wait...they haven't? But if a poor rushing team like Miami can rush for 200 yards, then what happened? Could it be that we played different differences against these different teams even if we used the same personnel? If anything we over scheme (which may be necessary when missing someone like Hyde). Zach Wilson, was hitting wide open receivers against us. Granted his stats weren't great but they were better than his 50% for 90 yards that we saw last night. Meanwhile, Green Bay ran the ball because Rodgers couldn't find open receivers. This defense actually does a good job of taking away what they perceive to be the opposing offense's strength, but make themselves vulnerable to the other team's weakness. Much has been made about the Dolphins running against us. Yes, Mostert had 101 yards rushing against us in the first quarter...but that means he only had 37 yards in the other three, which is not great. Our defense changed!! Of course, that left us exposed to Waddle getting open. My point is we need to stop claiming our defense doesn't adjust. It does...even if you seem the same players (including Taron Johnson) out there. Sorry if this came off as grouchy. It's been gnawing at me for a while and for some reason I just feel in the mood to air grievances today. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Turk Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 (edited) 1 hour ago, Sammy Watkins' Rib said: Montgomery is a JAG though, no? More or less. He averages 4.0 YPC in his career. He has rushed for over 1,000 yards once, but Motor would definitely outproduce him if he got the same number of touches. He has two seasons where he averaged 3.7 and 3.8 YPC and this year he is averaging 4.0. His one year above that he averaged 4.3...Motor has always had an average YPC in every year above his best year. 7 minutes ago, AlCowlingsTaxiService said: He’s no Derrick Henry, but he’s not a JAG … In my eyes, he’s definitely a step above Motor as far as consistent output It is the season of Festivus after all 😂 If by consistent, you mean consistently below average then yes.

folz Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 1 hour ago, Ralonzo said: David Montgomery who got drafted RIGHT in front of Motor and who I'm pretty sure the Bills wanted to take in that slot. I forgot that they were taken back-to-back. Thought I would look up their stats out of curiosity. Of course, Montgomery has been Chicago's feature back since mid-way thru his rookie year, whereas Singletary has never truly been a feature back (due to splitting time with other backs and our passing game of course---but then the Bills have been a better overall offense than Chicago over that period as well). And it appears that over that span (4 years), Montgomery has missed 6 games and Devin 4 games (so they have both been pretty sturdy/available). Montgomery: 886 carries, 3,502 rush yds, 4.0 Avg, 26 TDs, 149 recs, 8.1 Avg, 1,206 receiving yds, 4 TDs Singletary: 653 carries, 3,016 rush yds, 4.6 Avg, 15 TDs, 142 recs, 6.7 Avg, 949 receiving yds, 4 TDs Montgomery has more TDs (30 to 19), but obviously with more opportunities (as the Bills had Josh, Gore, and Moss running a lot of the goal-line carries). Devin has a better rushing average, while Montgomery has a better receiving average. If you prorated Devin's rushing average to the same number of carries as Montgomery has had, then Motor would have 4,088 rushing yards. Not trying to say one is better than the other...was just curious since they were drafted back-to-back. But, personally, kind of glad we have Devin. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sodbuster Posted December 23, 2022 Share Posted December 23, 2022 My plans changed last minute and I'm going to be in Charleston, SC for the game. Anybody know of a good backer bar down there? I'm getting mixed answers elsewhere online. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
