I’ve come around to the idea that the play was a creative design, just executed poorly. Poor execution and penalties were the Bills undoing last Sunday night. 

It was a play that required perfect timing and the timing was slightly off. For all his faults, Tua is great at that type of stuff. Josh? Not so much. But I'll take the 6'5'' guy who trucks LBs with the cannon arm every day of the week and twice on Sundays.

I've gone back and watched the play a bunch of times from both the sideline and endzone angles. If that had gone off, it was going to go for a big gain. I'm sure they worked on that in practice and just flubbed it on gameday. Knox was there a split second too early and was ever so slightly past Josh when he turned to hand him the ball. But in general, I don't want them to stop trying to run creative plays just because that one didn't work. 

 

Here's the handoff moment:

 

Agreed but that felt like it was Elijah Moore’s play.  
 

Who for some reason was inactive.

A few people have thrown the theory around that maybe they're saving their best for playoffs. Let's hope that's 2hat it is. If not, I dunno, my confidence isn't that high for this team getting to the superbowl 

I don't know why some people get on here and bash those who have honest opinions that don't sound like "we're the best team and we're going to get the number 1 seed" and so on. I'm with you. I don't have a tone of confidence right now and it started with the Miami game. No one wants to hear that the defense looks like a mess when they won a game. I get it. But then the Saints happen and the defense looks like a mess again but with a ton of flags and the offense looks to be stalling a little like it was vs Miami.  Then NE happens. We get a ton of flags and the defense is carved up by maye and Diggs. But in this game Josh is trying to prove to his "ex" that he's better off without,  and the offense looks "off".  if this is who we are, then I also don't see a Super Bowl. Ill support this team win or lose but I'm also not going to lie about how I feel to get message board credit. Sorry, I went on a littlle rant there.

Didn’t realize Cole Bishop grew up in Fayetteville GA, about 45 min south of the Atl.  How does a good GA boy end up playing college ball in Utah?  
 

Anyway,  welcome home Cole. 

Interesting question. I can't find anything, except that he was committed to Duke and changed to Utah at the last second. He was only a 3-star prospect, so his options may have been limited. A spot opened up when the Utes starting safety left on his LDS mission (that's all that I can find).

I’m listening to wgr while cooking and I am not sure we can stop Robinson.  Sounds like he will rush for 400 yards.

 

 This is the most a player has been talked about in a long time.  
 

Atlanta feels like Miami’s offense to me and some sort of the jets defense with ulbrich.  
 

hopefully the team has this much respect for these guys as the radio station does

We got shut down, yet still somehow out-gained the Pats, rushed for over 100 yards, had more first downs, and better third down efficiency, even after turning it over 3 times. Curious.

Cook had 49 yards on 15 carries, a 3.3. ypc. Johnson, Davis, and Shakir managed another 16 yards between them. So, yeah, shut down the run.

They play was designed to be a sneaky inside handoff with a fake to Cook going the other way. The Pats defense fell for the fake. It would have worked.

 

Josh said that a bad exchange from McGovern to him thru the timing off and Knox was already at his chest and Josh still didn't have control.

The last thing the Bills should do is abandon plays like this.  It wasn't some "trick" play, it was a misdirection that WILL WORK in the future.

90 minutes before kickoff.  So 5:45 there should be a post on the Buffalo website.

He is the last person I have ever asked to take a celebrity picture with in probably the last 30 years, super nice guy.

I pray we learned our lesson and never see those god awful "cold front" uniforms again.

[skibum]

It was a bad Sunday for the Bills. Virtually every important outcome did not go their way. I can't handle going into the bye in 2nd place in the division! 

 

LETS GO BUFF A LO!
