Ike has played it in Preseason games, emergency center.

Most unbearable part of Jacksonville loss = The final score.

Jamil is not a rookie (NFL Stats), but I do agree with you. He has NFL starting experience, and they must like him as they have protected him. I said it in another thread, time to give both him and Bates a chance, can they be any worse? They both have started and have had enough success to stick on the team.

Well, I'm not sold that everyone has figures us out. We're still near the top of the league in points scored. But I will agree that we have become is very predictable. Especially in the run game; that is, what little we have of it. When Josh lines up under center, 90% of the time it is a run. We all see it, certainly defensive coordinators see it. The other issue about our run game is RPO. This became quite apparent in the late fumble play. My take is, Josh Allen (who I love as our QB) just doesn't execute the RPO very well. And in general, the RPO have not been that productive for us. I believe the reason is the mind is made up before he sees what is really happening. On that play, we all could see it open up, give it to Singletary and he has five yards or more easily. But I believe he was already set on running it (like most of the time) and he played right into the defense end--who was standing there waiting for him. If his eyes were up and he was really trying to discern in the middle of play, it was an easy read. I just don't think he has the mind (his mindset is "I'll do whatever it takes to make this happen" - rather than doing the smarter thing to make this happen) for that type of play calling. I hope I'm wrong, but that play in particular showed why I think this.

Probably has the COVID, I heard it is going around the QB room.

Well, for perspective, we did draft three offensive linemen this year. One is a starter. And we brought in three Free Agents who started on other teams. So it’s not like it has been totally ignored. Regardless: Mr Bates and Mr Douglas, here is your opportunity. Oh, and Mr Johnson, you can leave now. Your employment in Buffalo has come to an end.

yeah, “They don’t write-’em like that anymore”

I posted this in the song thread, but it seems appropriate here as well …. Maybe I’ll post it in all the Jacksonville threads 🤪

The old Hee Haw song:

Not sure I can say Urb out-coached us, the Bills out-coached (or under-coached) and hurt themselves. The Jags had a lot of luck and a terrible day by the Bills go their way. But better coaching, no, I can’t say it.

Well, we all trust things turn for the good Virgil. Thanks for your contribution to this board. We’ll miss it, and hopefully we see you back here next week after a Bills beat down of the Jets.

The ultimate “role” player!

And Barry Sanders’ teams never won much.

There are many questions about this team right now, but I'll throw out my top three: Why does our o-line coach still have a job in Buffalo? I cannot identify one player who has gotten better under him. Related, why not give Ryan Bates and Jamil Douglas a chance? Can it be any worse? ... both have quality starts in the NFL. What does Stefon Diggs have to do for the Bills to start getting him the ball? .... Related, maybe stop trying to run deep routes when your QB is dealing with lineman in his face all game? How about some slants, short crossings patterns, quick-hitters????

Those last two minute were like a flashback to the Texans playoff game. A total team (offensive) effort in ugliness. Ugly! Ugly! Ugly!

Yeah, the arrogance of TBD has crept into the Bills locker room. Next week is a season defining game. Lose that one and start looking forward to draft day.

No, are you old enough to remember a Super Bowl, “wide right”?

Wow! Just wow.

The Defense needs to score, the Offense is not going to.

Can the officiating be any worse? Apparently, yes it can.

He did in the first half, but our line didn’t block for it. Surprise

GET FORD OUT OF THERE! I can’t take it.

Get him out!!! = 74

Get Ford out of there!!!!!

or Bates
