How many threads to we need about the same play? I mean this is being discussed in several other threads

How is this 4 pages. There is indisputable evidence he was down short of the first down, its not even up for interpretation. What could possibly be discussed on the matter for 4 pages lol

Yeah if true it certainly is a mistake with Barkley on the other side

Hes only ever NOT converted just one or two times on down and 1 or down and 2. I say "down" instead of 4th down because we have run the QB Sneak to pick up a first or TD on other downs as well. Great choice to go for it, and I love McD saying he will go with Josh 10 out 10 times there and has his complete trust. The mistake was by Dabol trying to be cute and tricky with the play rather than just lining up and running it with Josh above center. Neither him nor the OL really seemed dug in as a result of the attempt at confusing them. They didnt even give Josh a chance to hard count them. Line Josh up over the center from the get go and I believe they absolutely convert or get them to jump. Dabol needs to STOP trying to be slick in these moments and just run their best play.

No he didnt, he was down before the ball went past the line, you just took a freeze frame after he was down prior to this and ball was on the other side. There is no disputing this, he was 100% down before the marker, they got that call right, the camera was exactly on the line and it was a legit half a foot short.

The call to go for it I love and was correct. But this was Daboll fault to be honest on how he tried to be cute and tricky. He needs to stop being cute on the 4th and 1, it’s the ONLY time it doesn’t work for us. Allen has like a 98% success rate over 3 years on the sneak. If you’re gonna sneak it, then lineup and sneak it. But because Dabol had Allen in shotgun and walk up, he never really got his feet and set to push. If we lineup and just snap that ball with Allen under center from the get go, I guarantee we convert.

Does it matter? I mean he’s either 3 or 4…but Allen and Lamar are 2 tiers higher than both Baker and Darnold. I mean they are a distant third regardless who you put at third. I would still take Baker over Darnold personally, Darnold doesn’t have the balls to be good. But again, it doesn’t really matter. Neither is remotely close to the top of the class of Allen and Lamar.

Any list that doesn’t start with Allen then Tyrod is incorrect. Tyrod made 2 pro bowls and was the one to break the playoff drought. He wasn’t the answer, but our offense under him for those 3 years were the highest scoring three year period in Bills history outside the first three SB years. Does it mean he was a top ranked starter. No it means the rest of our QBs between Kelly and Allen were pitiful.

How many defenses really have nicknames? I mean I can't think of one in the last 20 years despite some historically great ones. This is a thing of like the 60's and 70's mostly. So I don't think we need one personally

Clearly this is just to set up a trade of bills legends Ertz and Watt to the Bills later today for a 5th.

I don’t think they could have gotten anymore for Watkins. They got a 2nd and a good CB for him, that was quite a lot given Watkins mediocre stats and injury history.

Star...plugging up the middle will be key

He also did by down playing Michael Jordans greatness. He is just using outrageous takes to get his name known. He’s actually a terrible analysis even when he’s trying, so this is about the only way he climb the ranks. He knows you’re worth just as much as the heel and fool in sports journalism now thanks to schmucks like Skip Bayless making it popular. They know people will click and tune in over outrage or when their stupid comments get proven wrong to watch them eat crow. Its the viewers fault for these people. They have no likability or analysis skills of any kind…if the audience didn’t fall for it hook, line, and sinker then they would have no audience. Its a lesson learned from the WWE, literally. And now it’s being copied over and over again.

Its mind blowing that McD isnt getting any COY love yet. They have like 3 or 4 coaches talked about as COY, and have yet to see McD mentioned. Makes no sense. Bills #1 offense. Bills #1 Defense. Tied for best record in AFC, 2nd in NFL. Largest point differential in the NFL. Biggest takeaway margin in NFL. I mean come on, whats a guy got to do? He should have won it last year.

I mean its pretty much added in, says total TD's not passing TD's...so still pretty equal

Thats not really a valid add in here though since this is not a resume or career comparison. Its no secret Josh came in more raw, had to play immediately, and his first 2 seasons he was developing and ascending. Since he "arrived' to upper echelon status starting last season, he has been on Mahomes level is the point. This post is about who they are TODAY. Not the full arc of their careers. And during this span of comparison, Josh and Mahomes have the same number of SB trophies...zero...albeit, Mahomes leads the head to head 2-1 right now.

Yet Josh is now the betting favorite to win MVP in Vegas, so to say it’s not close seems a bit premature.

A friend sent me a screenshot showing this but the pic size was too big to post. So just gonna type the info below. Shows how close these two really are in what they are doing out there. Now Allen needs to win the Super Bowl to cement his place at the top with Mahomes. Mahomes: 17-4 record Allen: 17-4 record Mahomes: 106.9 rating Allen: 106.0 rating Mahomes: 67 comp % Allen: 67.6 comp % Mahomes: 58-13 Total TD-INT Allen: 59-12 Total TD-INT GO BILLS!!!!

Overall good write up...but... Too much is being made about this above by some. No player had more than 3 receptions on the day. Its just the way the game went, dont think there was anything concerning at all by anyones play at WR. It was a result of spreading the ball around, big plays, short fields from turnovers, and Chiefs having a higher TOP. We just didnt run nearly as many plays either.

Mayock sucks and should be fired for being a crap GM

Well that clearly depends on how he played. But he was talked about as top 5 before he opted out for the season.

Not sure where you are getting this from. The fact you said Dane is better than him suggests to me that you haven't watched or paid attention to Levi's play this season very much. He's been very good and all year. And furthermore, if Dane was better then I am pretty sure he would have won the job in camp or taken over during the season so far. But given he has not, I don't think you can accurately say he is better. And no disrespect, people need to let the one play in week 1 go. First of all, he had excellent coverage on the play and Ben threw a terrible pass that was way short, otherwise there would not have even been any contact. Like the whole season, Levi had excellent coverage on the play, just unfortunate Ben woefully under threw the ball causing Chase to try and jump back and into Levi to get it, and it was Chase the instigated the contact not Levi. Not sure why everyone always wants to take one play and then somehow paint that players entire season/career as if its been a reoccurring issue.

Half the people here are wrong on a lot of things too. Levi is having a very good season so far though, and its not even up to debate. I hope they find a way to keep, and I think they will.

Keep in mind, no one on the team had more than 3 catches Sunday Beasley will be fine
