I read all your comments about Joe Marino and yes, we’re all entitled to our own views. My view? He’s great! He’s one of the very best podcasters and Locked On is clearly the best sports podcast production. He’s knows the pro game so he knows when we’re not good. Like all of us, he loves the Bills. Personally, I can’t ask for more. 🤷‍♂️

Well said Chandler. He should be a must watch for all Bills fans.

This is controversial but James cook might be more valuable to this current offense than Josh Allen. He’s playing at an elite level. That 4th quarter swing pass where he just casually jukes two different dudes and picks up a huge first down. Like it’s just sheer arrogance and pulling it off

It's not controversial, it's wrong.  Without the threat of Allen teams would be in a much better position to bottle up Cook.

Both certainly compliment other. I assume the Bills want to limit Allen's hits. However, the offense is on a different playing level when Allen runs the ball. It just opens up so much.

They showed a lot of resilience. Lots of key injuries and a terrible first half, but they "made the adjustments" and turned it into a beat-down, in a tough stadium for that matter. Nice game, all things considered!

Well, more precisely it worked in the second half. This board wanted Brady's head on a stick in the first half, before the defense unilaterally turned the game around with the two turnovers. Brady's game plan paid off because of that momentum shift, but up to then it was spluttering--again. Say the Steelers scored a field goal at some point to make it 10-3, not an unreasonable scenario. We would then have been treated to more of Brady's "passing game," likely with no more success that up to that point. 

 

The stars aligned for Brady yesterday because the defense gave him the perfect conditions for his limited repertoire of plays. When the Bills next face an opponent that can stop the run, or the defense doesn't dominate, Brady's glaring weaknesses--no creativity, adaptability, or flexibility, and utter predictability--will once again be on full display.

 

Yesterday might have been a Pyrrhic victory, since a loss might have finally prompted McDermott to fire Brady, and the new coordinator might have helped them win out. Now, we're stuck with Brady and his JUCO-level play calling for the rest of the season. I still have hope, since the defense might have found an identity and we still have Allen, Cook, and an offensive line. But on the other hand, we have Brady, who might end up cancelling out all those advantages all by himself. 

A little to harsh IMO. 

 

First, the Bills O was without BOTH starting tackles AND was missing their most effective pass catching TE AND were missing 2 of their 3 best WR's.  In that situation it's the responsibility of the D to keep them in the game and if possibe force game changing TO's.

 

Second, once ignited the Bills O was dominant - 3 possessions; 211 yards (56, 72, 83 yd drives); 17 points and 21 minutes 45 seconds 2nd half TOP.
