Bleeding Bills Blue

It's also hard to win. Against the patriots. A team that wins 12 every year, wins the division every year, and goes to the AFC championship every year.

Moss back in 2010...

And strong armed Amendola into taking a massive paycut.

Seems like Bill still trades them. He just likes to get something in return when he's going to lose a player anyway.

I assume their intention is to extend him. They have the payroll to frontload this and have him be the face of their Defense for the next several years. Their top 3 cap hits are haden, thomas, and tramon williams at the end of deals. I assume they cut RG3, McCown or both, and draft someone #1 overall. They drafted several WRs so they should have some depth there. I believe they will try to extend Pryor as well. Crowell and Duke aren't a bad pair of backs. They have 5 of the first 65 picks in the draft, including the likely #1 overall pick. 3 other comp picks in rounds 4/5. And a ton of young people under cheap contracts. Next year is fill out the roster with more talent. The year after that, they probably make some FA splashes to try and make the jump.

This year they really can't. Next year they can split it up between 17/18. It helps when your new QB's cap hit is so absurdly low.

I'm 50/50. I have wilson in fantasy, and he has been a massive bust. So i assume he'll beat buffalo to pour it on me. Other part of me thinks that offense is just bad, and will have problems with our defense.

Brady is a tough matchup for really anybody. You need a solid front 4 pass rush. Someone to cover Gronk/Bennett. AND corners who can play tight man to man, and recognize their pick plays. And even after all that ... he still probably burns you for 20 plus. And then you have their defense, which is largely healthy and pretty good.

Blitz more - leave Gilmore in more single coverage by design. Now he'll blame the pass rush for not sacking the QB. Give him safety help, he gets beat underneath. Truly great corner's don't get beat. They just don't. He's mediocre.

Meeks shaded to the middle - which is what Brady saw to make him throw there. If Meeks doesn't shade to the middle, someone else was probably open anyway.

If we drop a few games under .500 i'd say time to evaluate cardale. If we're still in the hunt, you have to stick with your guy.

I could see the argument on Cardale, but that's it.

EJ isn't under contract next year, TT might be. Who would you prefer to evaluate? The guy who will absolutely not be on the team? or the guy who might? Also - what from yesterday pushed you over the edge? The fact that we lost to a vastly superior opponent?

Ugh - he sucked yesterday. Probably sucks in general. I don't think there's really much to talk about from that game. We knew we were going to get smoked. Then we got smoked. Honestly though, he needs to run more. They lost contain on him a few times and he chucked it down the field when he easily couldve taken 10-15 yards. Those 10-15 yard scrambles frustrate coordinators, force them to account for it more, and open things up a bit more. The option play though - what were we thinking snapping that. they overloaded the right side... even I could see the bills were going to do that option again. So you HAVE to give it to the up back there, or you don't snap it at all.

My wife and her family are all also patriots fans. It's rough. They just expect to beat everyone. And are cocky as though they're like... on the team or something. MAKES ME SO MAD!!

I just don't get it... I get that alcohol is obviously involved. But I just don't get why people can't just get along and be polite. I drink a bunch before the game, but I'm not there to start a fist fight. Just enjoying beers with friends and family and making some good food.

If they call a play, and someone messes it up, it's the coaches... we were gonna lose this game. The patriots are the best team in the league, we have injuries... and we aren't that good. It's not Tyrol, it's not the injuries, they're just a lot Better than us

Felt like our guys knew they were toast at kickoff... I knew it was over when we went up 3-0. Gotta cash in. And we have to stop them on 3rd downs

Not a big duff's guy TBH. I'll throw Gabriel's gate into the mix though. Those were some good wings. Barbill are also very good. And I have had really good wings at Anchor bar once. Anchor bar's pizza was actually really good too...

Honestly, with the lack of playmakers - and knowing you would prefer to not have tyrod get injured. Why not bring in EJ for some read option packages. Can even have tyrod run some routes out there in a couple quick package plays.

My wife's family is coming up. All from Mass. All pats fans. Gonna be brutal after the game. I just hope there are no issues. We've been good the last 2 times. My wife had a beer dumped on her once, and someone asked me why I married a pats fan... My response: We got married in August, there wasn't a game that day.

Since we need receivers... no. He's not the sharpest tool in the shed if i recall. That diminishes his upside in a limited role.

Antonio Brown's only 5'10, and he catches everything. So obviously exceptions. But I get where you're coming from.

Probably why when we had fitz they went with nelson in the slot instead of a smaller guy. And probably why the jets have the biggest WR crew - probably ever. Nelson was not fast, but quick enough and a huge catch radius and solid hands. He was actually a pretty good find until injuries caught up to him. We added Salas for that kind of role, but he obviously got hurt so we're left with this group of turds.

Id just prefer small to be like... quick like an edelman/woodhead/sproles/dion lewis type. They move the chains. This guys a home run threat but not much else.
