One the sneak fumble I was thinking fake handoff to the back, Allen rolls right, TE sneaks out of the blocking formation into the right flat. Allen either makes a short toss to Knox for a short gain or runs a couple yards and slides. 2 plays later, game over. Dorsey dialed up what everybody knew was coming. Looking at the stacked defense ready to sell out totally on the QB sneak I was thinking safety for sure before the snap but surprise, fumbled snap and Vikings TD. Josh's mistakes were costly, but I wasn't happy with the play calling most of the game and the 4th and 2. Kick the FG there. There's a difference between being aggressive and foolish and reckless. The offense needs a mental reset and the defense needs Poyer and White back in the secondary. I think they'll get it all back together but the problem here is now they're chasing Home Field Advantage instead of holding onto it.

Josh is back to playing hero ball and we're seeing great plays on one side and terrible decisions and interceptions on the other. 3 "bad" games in a row here protecting the football with all the INTs.

How much did you pay for gas and groceries today?

Nothing will pass. The majority of Democrats and Republicans in the center are afraid to anger the powers that control the political parties at the extremes. -
I found a Bills fan towel in the hall closet a couple weeks ago that I got as a handout at a game about 15 years ago during a stretch where I went to 9 games and they lost 6. Incredibly 3 of those losses on the last play of the game! Put the blue towel out in the TV room after the bye. But after reading this tread last night, the first thing I did this morning was put it back in the closet. Bills win on Sunday against the Vikings now 100% certainty.

My contention has always been 1/6 was planned to be America's Reichstag Fire. Which of course was used by Hitler as a pretext to punish his political opponents and seize more powers on his way to dictator. And as evidence on FBI involvement drips out it sure looks that way. If the final vote tally shows the House swinging Republican I can't wait for the entertainment value subpoenaing all these officials will provide. Maybe they'll plead "executive privilege" or refuse to show up. And I'm sure the DOJ will take it very seriously and they'll be arrested, tried, and sentenced to jail for not honoring the House request to appear. Yeah, sure. Because democracy is at risk here! The funny thing is the people that say it most are the biggest risk to it. Something like Shakespeare saying to paraphrase "me thinks the lady doth protest too much".

Anybody see replay of Dion's holding penalty
All_Pro_Bills replied to LABILLBACKER's topic in The Stadium Wall
Gardner was making contact with the Davis and turning the receiver which impeded his ability get his right arm free in order to attempt the catch. The defender never attempted to play the ball which sometimes results in a penalty flag. But not this time. I think Gardner played on the edge there doing just enough to break up the pass but not enough to make it an obvious call for the official. In this case the ref chose not to make a 50/50 type call. The result was a smart play by the CB. In the case of Dawkins I watched the replay of the holding call several times again and my conclusion is Dawkins wasn't holding any more or less than every other offensive lineman does in any other game and on any other pass play that doesn't get called for holding. I think replay would have resulted in the Diggs catch being out of bounds and the result of the play should have been a 2nd and 10 vs. 1st and 20 on a holding call. -
The American Media Should Not Be Trusted
All_Pro_Bills replied to SCBills's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
While you're close here many of these corporations have adopted a system best described as "stakeholder capitalism". One definition is "a form of capitalism in which companies do not only optimize short-term profits for shareholders, but seek long term value creation, by taking into account the needs of all their stakeholders, and society at large." -
Huge win for progressives!!!

It says we must be living in some computer generated Matrix-like nightmare and I'm formally requesting that the tech support team reboot the system. -

If they need any 5 1/4" floppy disks I can dig through some boxes of old computer stuff that got packed away in the 80's. -
Why oh why are we not establishing a running game ?
All_Pro_Bills replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
The Bills need to show a credible rushing attack in order to dictate the play to the defense and make them respect or at least "think" that the coming play might be a run. But if you have no legitimate running game or make no attempt to establish one, it just makes life easy for the defense. The line can focus on rushing the passer and not worry about the run, the linebackers can focus on dropping into their zones or man coverage responsibilities, and in the secondary the safeties can play way off the LOS in coverage while the corners don't have to even think about run support. A big problem on Sunday was all the Jets defense had to worry about was covering the receivers and pressuring Allen. Add to that it was a day when the passing game wasn't at its best. Given the Jets have some good talent on their defense, making your offense by design one-dimensional, made it just way too simple and easy for them. You couldn't have given them a better approach to defend if they made it up by themselves for you. -

Nobody can accuse these regressive drones of being free thinkers. They ignore what their senses and physical reality tell them in order to spout the collective fantasy they're told to believe. Its one reason why none of them are capable of an original thought. What I find most disingenuous and fake about them is the real truth is that deep down in their heart and mind they can't possibly believe the crap they speak is true. So what else can they really be but liars and cheats? -
Soft on CRIME---> Republicans
All_Pro_Bills replied to BillStime's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Mostly the left reflexively views police as a tool of systemic racial oppression unless they're committing acts of violence against conservative individuals or groups in which case they'll just fine with the violence part. -
Soft on CRIME---> Republicans
All_Pro_Bills replied to BillStime's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Along with reducing the number of police and law enforcement these cities also make it difficult for private citizens to protect themselves. In many cases citizens that perform acts of self-defense against criminals are scrutinized by prosecutors more than the perpetrator of the act. This two-step sorry ass act, limiting the amount of government provided protection while inhibiting citizens ability to protect themselves is simply brilliant! -
A guy on WGR said it pretty well this morning
All_Pro_Bills replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
No argument with that but the Vikings have a pretty good RB and a QB that's proficient at the short passing game along with a team that is fundamentally sound so is anyone going to be surprised if they game plan on offense to do exactly what the Packers and Jets executed the past two games? So if McD and Frazier come into the game with the same approach as the past two weeks against the Vikings on Sunday I'm going to be both puzzled and upset along with concluding that the learning curve is just too steep for these guys to handle. And the week after, what's the thinking on how Cleveland is going to come into the stadium? Whether its execution or scheme or something else they better show some improvement. -
Josh Allen's waning confidence and mental yips
All_Pro_Bills replied to Estro's topic in The Stadium Wall
Another thing might be that everything this team did in the off season and up until the KC game was focused overcoming the Chiefs. And once Josh and the Bills beat Mahomes and the Chiefs in Week 6 the whole group just had a mental letdown like it was "clear sailing" to the SB. So maybe getting kicked in the privates yesterday might be what's needed to get their attention and play with that fire and enthusiasm they had leading into the bye week. -
Josh Allen's waning confidence and mental yips
All_Pro_Bills replied to Estro's topic in The Stadium Wall
I can't blame her directly but I think the message is focus on football here. Limit the celebrity and public appearances. Cut way back on social media. Nobody needs to know what you're thinking and what you're doing. As you're play on the field opens the door to all these commercial opportunities they can disappear just as fast if you don't put up points and clean up the offense. -
Maybe its because I live in a place surrounded by a lot of Jets fans but I always get nervous when the Bills play these guys. The games never works out the way I expect. Yesterday was obviously an example of that. This team looks like it's lost some of their swagger and energy since the win over the Chiefs. Beating the Chiefs was an obsession and everything they did in the off season was designed to beat KC. Everything early in the season was done with the objective of preparing for that game. Once that goal was accomplished the team had a collective letdown as Mission Accomplished. But that's just not the goal here, and they know it. Losing a carelessly and sloppy game against the Jets might be just the right medicine and provide the fuel for the needed attitude adjustment to re-focus on the real goal which is the Super Bowl. They need to come out guns blazin' on both sides of the ball next Sunday

McD and Frazier are going to point to "execution" issues when they speak on Monday. And in many ways, that's a valid argument. There were countless missed tackles, bad angles, and missed gap assignments from start to finish. But from a physical standpoint the base nickel can put you at a disadvantage against an offense going with a bigger personnel package. Especially when you miss so many tackles and run gap assignments. Allowing that final Jets drive to move 90 yards down the field was just unacceptable. Sure, the offense was putrid but at some time during the season and during the game your defense needs to step and take charge and they didn't do it here. The coaches better figure it out fast. With the Vikings and Browns on the schedule at home the next two weeks does anyone here expect those teams to do anything other than what the Packers and Jets have game planned against the Bills defense?

The Coming End of Democracy - Coping Strategies
All_Pro_Bills replied to JDHillFan's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Like you I'll go about life just the same. But the entire end of democracy narrative is absurd. Citizens voting to express their displeasure with a sitting administration to elect opposition candidates is exactly what democracy is all about. This is how our system is supposed to work. What Biden with his vote for us or else fear mongering messaging and the Democrats are pissing and moaning about isn't an end of democracy but rather an end of their unchecked power derived from controlling both the executive and legislative branches of our government. That's just simply the price to pay for doing such a poor job. -
Curiously the Household Survey reported a drop of 328K jobs in stark contrast to the Payroll numbers. This divergence has existed for several months. Along with a labor force participation rate of 62.2%. My guess is most of the "new" jobs are workers already employed that are taking on 2nd or 3rd part-time or "full-time" jobs because of increases in the cost of living and the impact those rising costs have on their households. Not new workers entered the labor force. Hardly a case for strength. The problem the Fed is having is they started way too late in the cycle to address rising inflation and while their aggressive hikes will eventually have an impact there is a significant time lag between the rate hikes and their impact. To say they're behind the curve is an understatement and when they realize they've gone too far it will be too late to avoid a disaster.

Why Democrats Should Never Have Power Anywhere
All_Pro_Bills replied to Big Blitz's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I'd says the debate isn't settled that its already sexualized. Not in the sense of some sexual act but by a demonstration of sexual identity. Why else are men dressing to masquerade as women unless they want to emulate or be seen as a women in that particular situation? As the opposite sex. If its not intended to demonstrate or show some sexual identity or purely for entertainment why exactly have they chosen to appear like a women rather than dress, for example, in a Chuckie-Cheese costume and get the same entertainment impact? Which is assuming the appearance of something you are not.
