Bleeding Bills Blue

Yeah - he's responsible for the initial push into the line - then he falls on top and his teammates push him further.

We kept lining up knox there for fake ones... why not just have him do it? (yes I'm aware he's currently injured)

Want nothing to do with that guy and his 5th year option guaranteed base salary in 2024.

When your team can't score... you're going to lose some winnable games though.

1T players usually don't go super high in the draft. There are notable exceptions (Poe, Vea, Ngata), but usually a 1T going in the first is because he's got some elite quickness, hands, or pass rushing ability. Looking at our team needs, depth etc. WR is up there, but doesn't necessarily require a 1st round pick. WR - Davis will get paid, and i don't see us being the payer RT - Room for improvement here and it has definitely been the weakest position on offense this season DT - No depth under contract behind oliver in our rotation NT - DQ is a free agent - love to bring him back. Need to get younger here DE - Will be down to Groot and Von. I think Von will be able to sway a free agent to sign here though S - Free agent Hyde, and Poyer is on an expiring deal. Poyer can free up cash if released, but my assumption is we guarantee the deal and push the hit so we have some level of continuity back there. Tre is back - as are all the other corners but Dane. With a surplus of picks (1,2,3,3,4,5,6,6,6,7) i expect we'll take at least 1 CB.

Its worse when you 3 and out, they get good field position, and then execute the game script.

Also doesn't leave time to set protections, motion players around, deal with crowd noise, etc. Also doesn't leave time to set protections, motion players around, deal with crowd noise, etc.

I think its possible he's a great player... i think its also possible he's not playing that well at the moment. Doesn't mean he won't again, doesn't mean he has reached some level of cap or something. It's sort of the nature of sports... You can break everything down to stats, numbers, whatever you want... The patriots have the worst offense etc. Well on Sunday they played well. Players made tough catches, mac was more accurate, guys were breaking tackles, they seemed to actually believe. You can try and figure out why that was - but it could be simply a good week of practice, or just a good day at the office.

Underthrown sail route. He seems to be struggling with placement on down field throws at times. You want that ball almost out of bounds and his throw... was not almost out of bounds.

So what if that exact same trade happens but its diggs for pick 21 to the eagles. Eagles get Diggs, Vikings get Jefferson @21 - buffalo gets... Reagor or Aiyuk. Oh but now we'll know we need to trade up! You don't get the benefit of hindsight without the rest of the league also getting it.

Is this a weekday? What day is this?

So the only guy who actually has a super bowl ring should be in the background of a players only meeting?

Right? Day off? In this economy?!

Both NYG and patriots seemed to not commit to rushing their defensive line up field - and created havoc up the middle with stout DTs and blitzing. There wasn't space to step up towards the LOS in a pocket, or side-step into rushing lanes. They were content to give him the sideline, and most of his sideline running throws have been down field. He's been super late on check downs recently as well, meaning he's looking to make that big play and its costing us YAC.

A - Need to stop moving up, and need to start moving down. The teams only getting older moving forward, and you need more draft "lottery tickets". We have extra picks this year in 3 and 6. B - Lot of hindsight here. St. Brown ran a 4.6, which this board would have lost their minds on if we had drafted. Pickens had off-field issues. Diggs was essentially traded straight up for Jefferson - but hindsight is.. we didn't know he'd be on the board at the time we traded. C - Trading in season is always tough and i tend to veer towards a vet. But is that vet going to be better than Shakir/Sherfield/Harty? Are they even the issue or is it the plays, or allen holding the ball?

Or we were 5-2 and had all this optimism and we lost 8 of 9. We're pessimistic and think the teams worthless and they're 4-3.

End of the day - these misses are starting to add up. Needs to get it together because in games you win or lose by +/- 6 points, those FGs can and are often the difference. Much like a poorly timed call or non-call can make a huge swing.

Cuz he can get open quicker than davis against man coverage.

Playing 20 something snaps, and then 0 more after that... is a benching.

Kind of a crappy throw too.

Everyone does - we're just running into a bunch at once of the season ending variety again. They're 3-3 and won 3/4 but they currently have one of the worst offenses in football.

As in - first drive of the game - teams are always coming in with a good 10 play script and it's been a problem all year. He's not wrong there either.

I'd also like to see a bit more of harty than we're seeing. Davis at 96% of snaps completely limits what you can do with your other players since its a split between kincaid, knox, sherfield, harty, shakir. Just too many people moving in and out of the lineup to make any level of consistent impact.

Dorian williams at halftime of... this game?

The refs kinda returned the favor at the end of this one. There were calls that go both ways... but the last drive for NE was quite a bit ref aided.
