Not like playing the Ravens this week again Nico Collins watch alert panic flag up for me On any Sunday , for sure Expand Pretty sure pierce is questionable but seems like he might go. i think the key to stopping them is a dominant performance by the DL- with no Ed, no Von and no Johnson (oh well). Likely going to have to manufacture pressure with great play design and confusion. It’s possible…..and likely necessary or Nico and Diggs (with Cam Lewis covering him) are gonna make life miserable. losing Ed was a back breaker for me. Random injury in practice and missed a HUGE game while already missing several other starters. 🤦🏻♂️ 1 Quote
Kirby Jackson Posted October 5, 2024 Posted October 5, 2024 A couple of quick thoughts: 1) I’m glad the message board this week wasn’t 1000 pages on Diggs not loving us and vice versa. This group has really become more secure since we’ve gotten good. If this would have happened in 2015, for example, there would be 100 pages of us crying about our gf leaving us. 2) Why the hell is there talk of a “Diggs revenge game?” Revenge from what? He came to a franchise that paid him a boatload of money, threw him the ball 10 times a game, and where he played the best football of his career. He asked to go and they traded him to a place that he was happy with. What is this revenge I’m missing? 1 4 3 Quote

Comebackkid Posted October 5, 2024 Posted October 5, 2024 Since we need somthing postive to think about going into this game and since a lot of rookies are going to get a chance to step up this game...I thought i'd bring up Cole Bishop. Being from utah I really like utah players and even with being a smaller school we have put out some excellent Defensive players. I watched the cover one film break down on him against the Ravens. He played fairly well, made some very heady plays where you could see both his physical attributes and the processing part of him. one play he seen the guy coming into to block him on his way to Derek, he slowed down to take on the block and keeping his head on derek waited for him to get to him and then broke off and wrapped Derek and dropped him to the ground. so after this I went back and looked at his 23 year highlights. There you really see his speed and physical play. He caused numerous forced fumbles from hitting the receiver or rb. he is also a very good pass rusher and had some decent sacks along with some amazing interceptions, dude has some good hands. It really pops on film just how fast and physical he is. For Bills fans that have been saying we need bigger faster players on D he fits the bill all around. Beane stepped up very well to provide in this instance what we have been clamoring for. I think we will see once he gets more exp in this system that he will be playing faster and more physical still. 4 1 Quote

He even commented on it on social media, as did other players (I think, maybe it was just his brother). He wanted out, but didn't want the backlash that comes with that. Now he's probably got Texans players thinking fans treated him like crap the whole time. It's annoying. 1 Quote

Expand Agreed, and I'm also a bit worried that Diggs has far more info to give on the Bills & their tendencies than the usual former players would. He knows Josh well, he knows some of Brady's playbook (and who knows how many concepts were carried over from Dorsey or if terminology stayed the same), he knows McDermott, he's practiced against most of this defense quite a bit, etc. so he'll definitely be sharing as much intel as possible in preparation for this game. Not sure how much it will matter, but you know damn well he wants to prove a point against his former team. On 10/4/2024 at 9:15 PM, Casey D said: Then why is it a 1 point spread?

Expand That former player angle is getting old. Mitch Morse and Gabe had all the same info for JAX. Poyer had lots of intel for Miami to use. And both of them got smacked around notwithstanding. 3 Quote
