Beasley was open on 3rd down. We checked Brown into his route. On 1st, 2nd, or a longer 3rd down attempt, that is the read, and you make the play. On 3rd and 4 given the time in the game, you need to be ready to keep the sticks moving, not just make the standard read.

We have a choice. I would take a run at Dalton for 2 years 25M-ish total contract. Put some resources into better OT play and a WR too. If Josh looks the same next year as he does this year I pull the trigger sometime between week 4-6. Dalton starts for 1.5 years. You take a QB 2021 to sit. The regime cannot afford to whiff without an immediate replacement plan in 2020/2021.

It is because we were not in cap hell in the way some people want you to believe. We were pushing around 12M in cap space in McD's first year. Which is not a ton, but not the hell NO has found themselves in over the years. Dareus is a good example. We cut him, took the dead cap space, and then sunk 10M per year into his replacement. We had a team friendly out after the following season. It was totally unnecessary. We were coming out of a year or two tight against the cap, but contracts were going to age out shortly and they would have been fine. Instead they let guys walk, traded away decent talent (even though over paid in some instances). Didn't use much of that money to provide comparable replacements. Then used their increased draft capital to replace players and positions they got rid of a QB that seems like a coin flip currently (Has not done enough to be the guy, has not failed enough to be a dud), and a MLB that seems to be meh. Honestly, outside of Tre, who are we saving all this cap space to pay? Jordan Phillips will command some worthwhile money. But what are we paying Dawkins, Milano, Feliciano, Nsekhe, etc over the next few years? Middling contracts, that we would have enough money for anyways. What have we gained from this increased cap space?

Great play by Griffin to knock that down

Well they traded for what they believe is their franchise quarterback...who had a season ending win jury last year. They are currently undefeated with him in 2019. (That could change at any moment)

This isn’t going to age well

What in the absolute eff was that kick?

Seattle is playing good football. Buffalo is playing some of their worst right now. Russell Wilson is on fire this year. I would worry about the defense keeping Seattle to a low scoring game, and I’d be worried about the Buffalo offense being able to compete with their defense the way they are playing with Clowney. so yes, I’d be worried we can keep up. I have seen a few SEA games this year.

This just in, Bills fans are much more critical of their teams mistakes than they are of players in other teams.

I think Seattle embarrasses this years Bills team. This SF defense would give our offense nightmares. They are absolutely violent.

Just a reminder, we play both of these teams next year.

SEA defense has gotten much better as the season has gone on

huh?

I have been as critical of Allen as anybody but that won’t nor should it happen. He’s the guy for the season and should be the guy heading into next season. I do think we should see what Andy Daltons cost is next year. If we can do 2 years at 10-12 per, I pull the trigger and Allen gets 4-6 games to show he’s the guy in 2020. If we get 6 games of this production next year, I pull the plug and save the season. Dalton finishes the year and is around as a vet presence for the next draft pick. McBeane has done some things well and somethings poorly. I don’t want to start over AGAIN. But they need to have an immediate back up plan for 2020. They can’t do this again for a 4th year, then be a square one at QB in year 5, and expect to keep their jobs. Their jobs are dependent on either getting very good production out of Allen or having a replacement plan ready and waiting.

Can you imagine being a DC, you’re breaking down film on JA, and you realize that if you give him a certain look there is a 25% chance JA takes a sack. If you don’t get the sack, there is a 37% chance he completes the pass, and if he does happen to complete it, it’s only for 8 yards.

Dude, we just got out of cap hell. This contract was cap responsibility. I don’t know what your problem is...

Allen is late to throw a lot (anticipation). Sometimes he can get away with it because his arm strength can get a fastball there quickly. Sometimes it can’t. Allen is using his physiology to try and play catch up. This is the NFL, not the mountain west, it’s not working. It’s 20 starts of this now.

When your QB regularly struggles to score more than 20 points per game, with a top 5-10 defense, you’re going to get more judgement. When JA can take over multiple games with his arm, he’ll get more leeway. Until then he’s been inconsistent, and his inconsistencies have been largely the most glaring issues in our loses.

Dude, the link you posted shows Brady ranked 5th and Russ is 13th in YAC. What are you talking about. Od post after the Bills scored and held the opposing offense under the league average....against a losing team....for a loss... I guess you got me?

Baker and Landry get in a fist fight on the field/sideline.

I think that both teams are similar in that they aren't an easy out for anybody they face. I don't like the match up between Zeke and the current state of our run-D, but I do think they are beatable. Garrett is 4-5 on Thanksgiving.

Average teams can be a bad match up for even for good teams. In recent weeks we have had a tough time stopping the run. Zeke should scare us a bit. But it also does not mean they will have their way with us either. I have been as critical as anybody regarding this season, but I second this for sure! While I don't think the Bills are in the upper echelon of teams as our record would indicate, I don't think anybody is looking past us whatsoever.

I don't think they are a real threat in the playoffs in the NFC.

Thought that was interesting. 5-3 heading into MIN. I watched the last Giants game, and have to say, I was not all that impressed. EDIT: Since 2017, the Cowboys are 10-14 outside of the NFCE

Edmunds is ranked 6th for all MLB's in regards to total tackles and 26th for all defensive players. Unsure where that is coming from or if that was the intended point... This might be a good example of my previous post regarding disconnect on overall points between the two parties.
