All_Pro_Bills

Absolutely, sending a message to your players through the media is a good way to lose your team and respect for each other. I'm sure we've all seen the intensely revealing press conferences coach Belichik gives on a weekly basis. The insignts he provides are amazing! No coach ever kept his job because he aired out all the teams issues in public and gave good interviews. So McDermott sticking to the traditions phrases and buzz words is the way to go. First football is a physical game and every team in the league plays physical. There's no flag football or two-hand touch going on out there. But the Bills do have a clear problem playing teams that bring a solid offensive line backing up a excellent running game and a defense good enough to give our passing game issues. Its seems the coaching staff is oblivious to the specific challenges teams like the Colts and Titans present when you watch how they approach the game. Is playing the base nickel the best idea, expecting a 185 pound corner to take on a Henry or Taylor coming through the line untouched at full speed? Maybe instead of a 4-2-5 the traditional 4-3-4 is more effective or given the huge investment in DL you work in some 5-2-4 once in a while. How much worse could the result be in just attempting these other personnel packages? Anyway, next up are the Saints and then the Patriots. Is there anyone here that doesn't know what they're going to do on offense or defense against the Bills? The blueprint is clear as glass on how to beat the Bills. Adjustments, some occasional changes in formations and personnel packages and play calling are needed. That's obvious. They know what they have to do. The thing is do they have the courage and the ability to be critical enough of themselves to admit they need to make some basic adjustments if this team is going to make the post season in 2021?

Yes, if it was a black teen acted in the same self-defense situation then he would have gotten support from the patriot movement and 2nd amendment advocates and self-defense experts. And he would have been vilified by the left for being a "Black" White Supremacist. Everything in the above narrative is an intentional lie. This stuff is on the level of profane distortion of truth and facts as 1930's Nazi propaganda. It is propaganda. And creates a hypothetical scenario and draws conclusions that are more lies. 1) Its not against the law to cross state lines. What's the significance of that narrative? The left wants you to think there's something sinister about "crossing state lines" because they want to align state law to be consistent when dealing with the 2nd amendment and gun control using the strictest state codes as the model for all states in the future. 2) Strangely, rioters and looters and anarchists crossed state lines to participate in rioting and looting and anarchy. All expenses paid by some unnamed NGO. But the lying left thinks that's not an important contradiction in their position on the topic. 3) The rife was not acquired "illegally". It was purchased legally in the state of Wisconsin by an adult that was legally holding and storing the weapon. 4) Its no more illegal to attend a MAGA rally than it is to attend a BLM rally. Organized protest is not a crime. So what's the significance of that? More sinister innuendo. 5) Rittenhouse did not pick a fight with anyone. He was initially attacked from behind running away. This constitutes an act of aggression by the attacker and self-defense was justified. 6) The court weighed all evidence and testimony available and acquitted the kid of all charges. 7) If a black teen experienced the exact same scenario he would be considered an enemy of the left and the anarchists among them. The MSM would be characterizing him as a black, white supremacist. 8.) But the radical left doesn't like it because they didn't get their way.

Let's see what the lying cork soakers on CNN and MSNBC whip up to avoid the obvious. Rumor has it the driver was being chased by somebody with a knife. But to believe that you've got to believe that dude with the knife can outrun a speeding SUV. I'm not so sure even the lying and malicious parasites in the media can pull that off.

CNN's lead story: White supremacist mob damages BLM activist's SUV. Now if this turns out to be a hate crime and all good and ethical Democrats, Republicans, and Independents don't speak out and condemn the attack their silence is equivalent to approval of terrorism.

Time to add a new poster board to your Trump conspiracy room. Label this one Waukesha WI. Maybe you can uncover the Red SUV is registered to one DJ Trump and a MAGA hat was seen blowing out of the passenger side window!

Your obsession with Trump and reflexively concluding all issues and arguments ultimately lead to the man is troubling. It might be a serious problem. I'm imagining you have a room in your home with poster boards and pictures pinned and taped all over the walls with pictures of Trump and his "co-conspirators" from various ventures and events. Charts with lines drawn between names and faces. Events all plotted out with the text of quotes and tweets scattered among the various "conspiracy" walls. Boxes of printed documents and NYT and WP news stories stacked on the floor. But at some point leaving it behind and returning to living in the real world is the best approach to life.

For example, when the Bills drafted Edmunds I saw a guy with speed and size and potential and envisioned him playing a couple years after his draft season with a few off seasons of workouts and conditioning to add a lot of muscle mass and strength turning him into a dominant force as a 'superhuman' unstoppable monster MLB. But that hasn't happened. And when I see other teams play, like the Ravens and Steelers, their offensive and defensive lineman and linebackers just look a lot bigger and stronger than the Bills. Are these other teams hitting the weight room and the lunch line harder than the Bills are here to add size, strength, and weight? You look at this year's first 4 picks for example and you can't say any of these guys are small. So what's going on?

1,000 to 1 odds that by the end of the day the liars and cheats in the media will be blaming Trump for last night's incident because he's created a toxic social and political environment that is triggering people to commit acts of violence. And all their minions will pick up the narrative. After thinking it over I conclude its their only play to make here.

Take action to eliminate and minimize penalties. Pre-snaps, personal fouls, unsportsmanlike. All the dumb stuff. I get the calls for being aggressive or trying to make a play or a block. But so far. Steelers - Bills commit 8 for 81 Dolphins - Bills commit 6 for 53 WFT - Bills commit 5 for 30 Texans - Bills commit 3 for 30 Chiefs - Bills commit 10 for 103 and still win as the Chiefs made more mistakes than the Bills Titans - Bills commit 8 for 60 Dolphins - Bills commit 9 for 80 Jaguars - Bills commit 12 for 118 Jets - Bills commit 7 for 50 Colts - Bills commit 7 for 56 Not to include what was called and declined. How many of those were drive killers or led to turnovers? How many gave the other team's offense a break to continue a scoring drive? Tell me the Bills lose that Jaguars game without all those penalties.

I think he's arguing that a guy running over grandmothers at a holiday parade is the same thing as a white guy who was found not guilty of any crimes for defending himself against other white people attacking him. That's what ideological zealots do. But give him credit as he does know about "executive time"

Well, at least the title of the topic is finally true. And I'm sure the exact same cast of characters that immediately went right to white supremacy and race in the case of Rittenhouse (even our illustrious President expressed such foolish notions prior to one of his 4 hour afternoon naps) will instead preach from the pulpit that we need to gather all the facts about the situation before jumping to conclusions. And then engage in the victim and excuse generation machine because as information available is the perp is not a member of the targeted "white supremacist" group. I expect they'll be drawn and quartered in the court of public opinion for taking the victim approach but that is their game. I await to see if human garbage running the likes of MSNBC will have hard-core racist host Joy Reid along with Sharpton, and the CRT crowd on the tube explaining the justifications for killing grandmothers at a holiday parade. Falling on your own sword comes to mind.

Nothing annoys me more than the traditional conservative mindset fighting the war against the extreme left under rules of engagement that no longer apply to the political and social battlefield. Thinking that polite and cordial exchange of ideas and an insistence of sticking to traditional principals is not a strategy for effective engagement with a belligerent opposition intent on imposing their ideology without regard to any sort of rules. You can't politely reason with people intent on getting their way without the need or desire to compromise on anything. An extreme left that views things like the rules of law as no constraint on their behavior. The end justified all means necessary. The fact that much of the conservative element still relies on the traditional approach to engagement or just ignores the trouble the left is causing is the sole reason the activists on the extreme left never attack them. These fools on the right are simply no threat. As long as they persist in their passive approach that generates no threat to the left's active aggression. Its like the "gentleman" nobility of 18th century Europe fighting wars under strategies and tactics used for 100's of years when swords and shields were all the craze who didn't adjust their thinking when muskets, pistols, cannon, and rifles started to dominate the battlefield which rendered their approach obsolete. So is the traditional conservative mindset and approach obsolete today. Guys like Mitt Romney don't worry the left at all. In fact in his case he was dumb enough to go along with the Democrats on the impeachment of the President of his own party over political "crimes". He and the other no-action conservatives might as well officially join with today's left and end their charade.

I worry if it proves to be politically motivated some may view it as an attack that signals "open season" on leftists...

So far MSM have not yet been informed if the driver was White, a White Hispanic, a White Middle Easterner, or a White African American. But people listening to police scanners are saying the actual description of the driver is none of the above. Nothing official yet.

I have a hard time thinking Bates isn't worth a shot at RG with Brown out. Or keep Williams at RG and move somebody into the RT spot off the bench. What gives me optimism is we have our franchise QB but he needs a little more help as these areas being pointed out here need to be addressed. So we should be right there and remain competitive for the next 10 years or so. But right now as built this team has some glaring holes that good teams will exploit.

I think your point is valid. This isn't like hockey where you can roll 3 or 4 "good" evenly balanced lines throughout the course of the game and create some mis-matches with line changes or combinations to be successful. Maybe a couple of the younger guys on the line develop into a difference maker but right now there's no player in the rotation the offense is going to game plan around and account for on every play. Maybe you need an elite/pro bowl type impact guy or two instead. As this works pretty well by observation from around the league. The current approach while keeping guys fresh might be a mistake from a cap and roster building view. It didn't seem to worry or slow down the Colts today. Or the Titans for that matter or any other opponent with a good offensive line and a competent QB. Play the best 4 players and give them a breather but dump the averaging out playing time approach.

Tomorrow AG Garland will open an investigation which will clearly determine that White Supremist's are responsible regardless of the identity of the suspects arrested. And as result recommend tighter gun control laws. But my suspicion is the perpetrators are among members of one group of victims or another doing some early holiday looting, looking to lesson the effects of inflation (by getting free stuff), and getting a jump on reparation payments. 3 looters were arrested. And will be out without charges or bail. The good news is that with every passing demonstration of civil lawlessness and a lack of response by Democratic officials their chances of maintaining a majority in Congress post-November 2022 fades further into oblivion. It goes without saying the MSM will ignore this event, their specialty, while social media platforms block or remove references to "California+flash mobs+looting".

Taylor having a great game for the Colts but my gut says it could be just about any NFL RB shredding the Bills defense today. Unless there's some big improvements and adjustments in 4 days my thinking for Thursday is to eat early in order to avoid indigestion and nausea watching the late game.

Against better competition the Bills consistently lose the battle on the LOS on offensive and defense. This defense just can't stop the run. Given the investment in an 8-9 player rotation that isn't acceptable. Allen is falling back on careless habits. The RBs are average. And way too many penalties in all 3 phases. Add it all up and you get games like this one. The schedule down the stretch looks troublesome. While I'm typing Josh with another careless pass and intercepted. Game over!

They just can't stop lying. And the fanatical base eats it up. Only to be disappointed when nothing happens. The situation comedy continues.

You'd think that after going 0-fer on every one of these left wing conspiracy theories and taking the wrong side of the facts at every turn some of our left-leaning friends here might want to objectively assess their views and conclusions. The first step might be to accept the fact that most of these activists, media members, and politicians they worship are malicious liars. When the 1/6 committee it will again leave the faithful unsatisfied.

We've had a slightly different view of the Biden administration's performance to date. With my assessment being complete incompetence and your view as complete competence in working to screw things up. The blogger at the link below makes a compelling argument in support of your view. His characterization is they're a gang of malicious scammers and liars. https://tomluongo.me/2021/11/19/bidens-incompetent-presidency-a-feature-not-a-bug/

I'm certain the entire social justice movement noticed with horror and shock that the Turkey President Biden pardoned in keeping with White House Thanksgiving tradition was White. So now the fight against White Privilege needs to target privilege and oppression in the poultry flock.

Utterly ridiculous. What other nonsense is she going to tell us next? That a man is a woman simply by thinking he is a woman despite biological traits proving that belief false. Or all White people are inherently racist except of course those who repent and become woke. Or Russians are living next door to you plotting to influence the next election. Or unarmed protesters planned to take control of the Federal government. Or self-defense is a crime along with "crossing state lines". Or an incident where all people were White was incited by racism. Or some other absurdities. I mean come on, who believes this stuff?

A core tenant of Communism is the means of production and property are owned by the people and controlled by the government. Anyone claiming to be a Communist must believe this or else they're falsely claiming to be a Communist.
