Has he "lost the team?" - Is Josh depressed, losing his religion, missing his ex-gf, or just actually reviewing his play/film via the tablet on the sideline? - Is Von "washed?" - Can Cook break a tackle? - Do we have a Bass problem? - Is Gabe Davis a WR2, low end WR1, or really a WR4? - Is Dorsey an idiot? Also, does he have a Cluster B personality disorder? - Should we bring back Taiwan Jones? No No Yes Yes No 4 Yes Never 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LabattBlue Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 (edited) Von is a joke. I can’t wait for his time as a Bill comes to an end and he becomes a GM or podcast wizard. Edited October 23, 2023 by LabattBlue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mango Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 9 minutes ago, MAJBobby said: Cool now where was his Roster replacement? sorry you shill for a guy that has done squat as a Bills but hey do you. Von is a HoF player coming off of a second ACL surgery at 34. His career is likely over. Shill? I don’t know what I am a shill for. This topic is about the team having a players meeting. Von has some value in that setting. His contract sucks, but there is a space for him in this scenario to provide value. I don’t know why you feel the need to be so aggressive and disrespectful. You’re carrying on a conversation that actually isn’t the topic at hand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChrisWatson#21 Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 The script calls for the Bills to get hot at the end of the season. They won the key divisional game against Miami. I'm not worried at all. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This as you said though is usually the start of a bunch of bad things....which honestly everything has been bad since white went down late in the dolphins game. Its been one thing after another.

This team has lost focus…time for the leaders to bring everyone together. Im skeptical though as I believe Dorsey stinks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They won the key divisional game against Miami. I'm not worried at all. we will not have the team that beat the dolphins again this season. The middle of the defense has been gutted and the top corner is gone which will be huge next time they play miami. We have seen it two weeks in a row already. The giants and bills just ran straight ahead and the bills couldn't stop it in their base defense until they had to change to stop it. With jones and milano the were able to stop that stuff in their base D. This defense just played two horrible qb's and they both had this defense clinging for life all game. When this team plays Cincy, KC, Philly, Dallas and miami again they might get blown out because of the deficiency in the middle of the defense and the quality of those teams running games and offensive lines. I was waiting to see how teams would attack this defense now and we saw it two weeks in a row from two horrible offenses, they dictated the game up front. Throw in whatever is wrong on offense and now teams that in the past that would take high risk plays on third and fourth down are just playing it safe because they know buffalo cant score because something is wrong. It just feels like because of the defense though the bottom could potentially fall out here. They have to win thursday and then over the break figure out the problem on offense. Hopefully they make some sort of trade to help either at WR, CB or DT. They have that extra 3 so this is the year to use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course they waffled and said there are many factors in play, but they did have these 2 examples: “That said, there are some examples of teams that have had successful players-only meetings and gone on to improve their records. For example, in 2018, the Indianapolis Colts held a players-only meeting after starting the season with a 1-5 record. The Colts went on to win 8 of their next 10 games and make the playoffs. Another example is the 2020 Cleveland Browns. After starting the season with a 2-6 record, the Browns held a players-only meeting. The Browns went on to win 5 of their last 6 games and finish the season with a 11-5 record.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hard to make much a difference when your players can't play well tho. Likely different results on teams with talent that need a kick in the ass.

babulator Posted October 23, 2023 Share Posted October 23, 2023 43 minutes ago, Ya Digg? said: This is nothing but recency bias. He was playing really well before he got injured last year, AND Groot was playing better because if it. You’re angry he got activated probably before he should have, I get that but people really weren’t saying this before his injury. He impacted several games last season I'm not angry, but do have buyers remorse. As for the recency bias, yes, Von had flashed, but availability is a players best ability. Had he not been injured I'm sure I'd feel different, and he'd have produced more results and we'd all be happy, but thats just not how the cards unfolded. I feel like we gambled on the shiny toy and lost, and thats just sometimes how the cookie crumbles. Thats not a knock on him as a person, thats just reality.

They looked good this year until they caught the injury bug (again). The offense will have to carry the load. All the defense has to not be a disaster and get the occasional timely turn over here and there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
