Bills 22 Bucs 20

If I could get Superman to stay as our QB, Black Panther as my LB, Prime of his career Arian Foster, and David Putney, I would have to do so.

Let's call this for what this really is. Lynch decides 10+ years later to get a few eyeballs and comments and to stir a narrative that fits conveniently for him and sometimes actually happens. A more fitting narrative is that a guy who grew up around the nightlife, poverty, and also the bright lights of a large city like Oakland and its warm weather did not find Buffalo appealing. He was in his early 20s, frontal lobe not developed, and he did not endear himself to the community. He also played with the Bills during the drought era and was far away from family and familiarity. He also had money and did not have choir boy behavior. Was he a solid running back, yes. Some of his runs with Seattle and his "not getting fined" comments were hilarious. Was there some profiling. Sure. Lynch also consciously or not certainly decided to cause the attention that draws law enforcement to you.

Christmas or Thanksgiving with my family. Football is fantastic, but family is my favorite.

My high school team was so good that we played like 4 homecoming games in a row each year! There was nothing better than getting curb stomped by a team looking for their one and only win of the season against my team during their homecoming game. 😥 Our team won 4 games combined my junior and senior year, and we went like 1-7 in those homecoming games for our school and the others. The silver lining of being so horrible is we had little pressure on us, so the halftime speech was not painful or too fiery. I did get to play against Donte Stallworth twice. Let's just say that my goal was holding him under 150 yards receiving and no more than two touchdowns. I went 1-1 in those games.😀

Now is the time for our 3-4 people who said they played in the NFL or coached in the NFL to give us some more details of their background.

5 Things #1. Dorsey needs a "you suck" st your job with an ultimatum to get more consistent. #2. Get Mike Evans #3. Stop the shotgun draw #4. Utilize Cook and Murray more to change up pace and out of backfield. #5. If you can't get Mike Evans, then game plan with Kincaid in mind or find confidence in a receiver not named Diggs who Allen stares at the whole time. Bonus: Davis, Knox, Sherfield, and Harty should not be in next year's plans if at all possible.

Seriously...the Bills have one offensive play. Go to Diggs. Cook ran well, but everyone else is either a JAG, overpaid, under utilized, or not a fit.

I am at a loss for words about how poorly this game went, yet it's still a "W." We saw the 49ers and Eagles lose. The good news is that the Chiefs, Bengals, Dolphins, Ravens, and Jacksonville are all very flawed teams. The bad news is we are a really good team about 50% of the time. Hopefully the games that matter the most for playoff seeding and playoffs will look like how we played Miami. More questions than answers on this offense. It's really good or really bad. Shoot, even Bass-O-Matic had to be inconsistent tonight. Still, it's a "W" 😕

Is there another weapon other than Diggs? This is like a playground offense.

Other than a QB Sneak, every play should be designed for 4+ years.

As has been mentioned, playaction passes and rollouts are great ways of establish the running game and vice versa. Using Murray and Harris more often to establish that the Bills can pound the rock a bit opens up the offense. Utilizing more of the field outside the hash marks also keeps defenses more honest in coverages which opens up some space for runs. And, of course, not running delayed draw plays and in loving that third option (Kincaid in mid passing game, Cook on short screens, Sherfield or Harty on a jet sweep can open up the passing game. If the Bills average 400 yards of offense, an ideal split would be 270 yards passing and 130 yards running.

Beane will keep options open. If something makes sense and can raise the level of play, then go for it. If not, it is a chance to see the young guys step up. Just keep eyes and ears open on bettering the team. Let's see how the next few weeks play out.

What a great win! Allen proved to media doubters that his slower start did not mean he was no longer a top 3 QB. When he plays like he did today, he is the best player in the NFL. The Defensive line proved that Tua and the Miami offense is good, but they can be held in check. Bills are the more complete team. What a confidence building win. Let's keep the momentum on both sides of the ball. Bills are as good if not better than any team this season. Loved seeing the Bills "Squish the Tua Fish."

Buy: Bass-O-Matic. The man should get 3 field goals this game. Hold: Ed Oliver. Still having solid season but Miami's running and quick passing will mean a quality but not great game from Oliver. Sell: AJ Espensa..probably his best game ever as a pro. Believe he had improved but not pro bowl, all pro, or above average defense end level.

Sign Bo Jackson to run for us and Tim Tebow to pray for us. Heehe!

So nice to see a complete game today. Amazing defensive play with 7 sacks and 4 picks. Allen was efficient. Running game had good moments with and without Allen. Bass did his thing with 3 field goals. Martin boomed his punt when needed. Great all-around game. Would have liked to see Diggs or Kincaid in the endzone and one of those field goals a touchdown, but all phases of the game were very good today. Go Bills!

Agree with the majority of points, and kudos to the OP for the topic. 24 hour sports cycle, a flooded market of opinions, quick access to YouTube, cell phones, ridiculous salaries, and the movement away from actual journalism all are culprits of the horrific drop in quality. It is why I am opposed to Thursday Night football. I think it actually waters down the overall product. Like any organization, if you expand too quickly, push an agenda, don't innovate, or lose focus by trying to reach/market to everyone, quality drops. Ask Disney, The Federal Government, the Roman Empire, California, or Hollywood writers for more details on how to take a nose dive. 😉

Kirksey would be good to bring in on short yardage running situations or when they need a little extra power to account for so the DE's can fly to the QB and have Kirksey plug himself up near the line of scrimmage.

We know our Bills need to move past the ugly lost and take the needed steps forward. What's your game day performance wishlist? Bills: GameDay Wishlist Vs Raiders 1. No turnovers by Allen 2. 2 sacks or less given up by Oline 3. Allen 250+ yards & 2+TD passes 4. 100 yards combined rushing for backs not including yards by Allen 5. A rushing TD 6. Kincaid 7+ targets 7. Diggs 8+ targets 8. A 3rd receiving option appears 9. 3+ sacks on Raiders QB 10. No rushing play over 15 yards against defense 11. Defense gets 2 turnovers 12. Bills special teams does not give up a TD 13. A home win by 10+points

No, but he will not be able to reach that ceiling if he continues along making these kind of mistakes and mental errors. His offensive line, his OC, and a lack of film rool study don't help either.

If the Bills play like they did in the 2nd half, then I would be ecstatic I'd be happy if we were 2-6. Josh Allen was the biggest liability on his team, tonight. Time for him to get to work. Bring in Tom Brady to show Allen what work ethic, film study, and commitment can do for ya.

Josh Allen is Brett Favre minus weinergate, a few MVP awards, and one Lombardi. Exciting to watch. Strong arm. Terrible in executing smart situational football plays that lead to devastating turnovers that kills us. Capable of doing things only a handful of QB's can do. Like Favre, he is loved. Unlike Favre, he has not yet worn out his welcome. Patience is wearing thin with our QB version of Jekyll and Hyde.
