Sauce mugs people. It's mind boggling how he gets away with it

Right now my gameplan against both these teams is to run at them

What? I heard that only happens to Josh Allen

I think we have to dedicate to the run against the Eagles like we did the Jets. They cannot stop Helare

It's like Eagles decided to do all the things that drove us all nuts

I literally came on here to post that

They've dialed that back a lot this year. Hurts has taken some hits and his knee brace just came off

Just as a note, calling the sandwich a Philly Cheese steak annoys locals like when we hear Buffalo Wings. So call them Philly cheese steaks!

I feel like this isn't getting enough press. The knock I hear from national media is "they're putting it all on Josh". I think maybe LeSean McCoy his first years with us is my last point of comparison. I do worry about the fumbleitis, but honestly the man is a lot of fun to watch play. It was just so infuriating to watch that shotgun QB draw, knowing that Cook can do with a head of steam and his vision. And now Brady is using a few Shannahan RB concepts? The Bills have needs on offense pending, but the Torrance, Cook and Kincaid pickups are looking like excellent pieces for the future.

who was the other one? Mac Jones?

"My legs, my legs..." "Oh Jesus, he kneecapped you?" "No~"

On a more serious note, the only reason I can conceive that Rasul Douglass has not been starting is familiarity. I know PFF is not the end all be all, but his track record has been better than Dane Jacksons, never mind the the splash plays from last night.

Unless you all expect three players to clear concussion protocol in a week, I think you better warm to the idea of Douglas as a starter.

Not to get too far ahead, but the Eagles are legit good. I was ready to call them a hype machine last year and while I am not a huge Hurts fan, they have an elite stable of WRs, run the ball enough to be effective, and they are great at short down conversion.

It's ok, it's the part of Camden that is riiiiiight before it touches one of the wealthier districts. Actually right by one the best rated sushi joints in Philly.

I am not going to blame anyone for holding off on the Joe Brady parade until he can show it for a stretch. I am not going to slam anyone for skepticism when my own is running quite high. Now, if we keep this up vs Philly, KC, Dallas, then I will gripe like to the peak condition being a Bills fan has trained me to.

I work in Camden now, so I'm already there. It's either that or I go to the aquarium for my kid and decide to get lunch.

How Brady does in the next 6 games is the real question for me. The defense has had some key breakdowns, but a lot of that was after keeping the offense afloat for an unsustainable amount of time. If the Bills get into the playoffs and show life, I am curious to see what Joe Brady can do with a full offseason. If the Bills flame out, offense looks awful, then it's an easy reset and a 2024 of burning every bad FA contract to start fresh in '25. To me the real question is this: what happens if the team looks much improved, wins games (plural) against Philly/KC/Dallas but misses the playoffs due to a bad loss and tiebreakers. Does the potential turnaround warrant one more year after four years of results we were thrilled about?

I think this is a must do. The Bills are in a cap crunch next year. Unless the plan is to burn it all down, I think it should be very reasonable to extend him a few years. His Packers deal was $7 M a year, and heavily frontloaded. Beane can easily knock the $9M for 2024 down with a signing bonus and set it to match the rising salary cap for another few years.

It looks like some of the gameplan was to target short passes to harp on the Jets defense deficiency at the LB level. Diggs also didn't have a great game. But overall I agree. I think we have seen the top end of Gabe Davis, and he is clearly not built for the #2 role. Can Shakir surpass him once he's the focus? Who knows, but he's playing with a spark that Gabe isn't and will 99% guarantee that Davis will not be back next season. GMs get silly with #2 WR money, and I am convinced someone will flash a price tag that we would be fools to match. So, let's see what the hot guy can do.

Exactly what I think. As much as we are collectively dancing on Dorsey's grave today, he did have stretches of greatness. The issue is, as you pointed out, what happens when DC's take away what has been working and you need a second punch. That said, there are reasons for optimism 1) that 3-4 "easy" games could not come at a better time, right when we need it. 2) the folks at Cover 1 pointed out something useful: that the Jets defense had done an excellent job shutting down receivers on the outside this season, but their weakness had been giving up passes to RBs. Not only was the James Cook TD using motion to identify the defense and running play action from under center (two things we've been screaming for) it attacked a defense deficiency and I do not remember the last time we did that. The result speaks for itself: a wide open, easy throw and catch, red zone TD.

That is what the locals eat. I would get good wings in Philly buuuuuut then I would have to find them you say that, but it's freaking delicious

Best cheese steak is in New Jersey. Break all the rules: put it on a Kaiser. Chop ribeye ends. American cheese. Load with caramelized onions.

We are a bit hard on Beane for his missed, but Kincaid looks like an absolute steal now that we are using him. The lack of use in the 1st third of the season was criminal

I will reserve judgement. The Bills have a massive test coming up. The way I see it, the Bills need to take at minimum 1 game (preferably 2) out of the upcoming vs the Eagles, Chiefs, Cowboys to have any chance of making the playoffs. Those are two of the best teams in the league and one good team. Dorsey always started strong and could never find a second punch. But dang was it nice to see Cook, Shakir and Kincaid see the kind of use that fans have been clambering that they could. If you keep scheming them open, Diggs will start getting single matchups again.
