Are we really still talking about Tyrod? Still pining for Jackson?

He would take DiMarco's spot. Talk about non essential to the team. We run 11 personnel almost 80% of the time. Would rather have Duke available to rotate in than a FB we never use.

He makes the big catches when they are needed most. Something Bills receivers still struggle with. There isn't a QB in the league that throws a perfect ball every time. Sometimes, if the ball hits you in the hands, you've got to make the play.

... Edelman routinely makes those kinds of catches for Brady....

1-12*

Sid lead the league in passing one year with about 2,000 yards and won the MVP. Before him it was mainly option QBs like Lamar. It was just a crack on how everyone is saying Lamar is revolutionary when in reality he's more like a QB from the prohibition era of football.

It's traditional alright, like Sid Luckman traditional.

I love Allen. I think he was a great pick and has a chance to be the best QB out of that draft class when all is said and done a decade from now. But it all hinges on those kinds of passes. I said in another thread, he realistically left 17 points on the field. That game could've been a blowout if he hits those throws. And that's all on him. He didn't get any help in the short and intermediate game from his receivers and I think people are confusing the two. Those 20+ throws are all on him. Like you said, clean pocket, open receiver. If he's going to be a franchise QB and take this team to the playoffs and to the Super Bowl year after year, he has to figure out how to start hitting those throws.

Uh... ok? Where did I say they did? Killed us, as in could've been the difference in the game, as in we win instead of lose. But hey, thanks for your insight.

It's killed us in all 4 losses that's for sure.

Josh played like garbage and Daboll reverted back to early season Daboll. His only answer for Cover 0 is to throw deep. The 49ers showed the Ravens defense is weak on the edges and I think we called one or two plays that exploited that weakness. If Josh can start hitting those 20+ throws even 25% of the time he's a franchise QB and we win that game by 10. The long sacks also have to stop, those are inexcusable at this point in his career.

But he's a great pass catching back that you could put in a two RB backfield. Buffalo's biggest problem on offense is our inability to attack the edge. The 49ers racked up yards on the edges of that Ravens defense. We are so condensed that it makes it really easy to call Cover 0 and blitz Allen all day. McKenzie, Yeldon, Singletary and Foster (just because I wouldn't want Brown to take the punishment) should all be heavily involved in the offense in short screens, quick outs etc. because at some point you have to spread the defense out. You have to make them respect the whole field, not just between the hashes.

So you'd have rather needed the two points with :57 left in the game if they scored on the pass to Brown? I think the only reason anyone questions it is because Dan Fouts is a moron.

F. He must figure out his accuracy beyond 20 yards for this team to be successful against playoff caliber teams. That's all there is to it. And as we approach year 3 he has to stop taking sacks the way he does. Throw the ball away. I'd say he left up to 17 points on the field yesterday with the two missed passes downfield that were open and the sack that took us out of field goal range. Yes his supporting cast was also awful but to truly be the guy he has to rise above it.

I guess he didn't have the need for REVENGE.

Where Josh tries to avoid contact is where I feel like he is most vulnerable. That's when guys still come in and deliver a shot to the head. Running backs don't get hurt all that much considering how many times they carry the ball and that's be cause they are the aggressor, they are initiating contact, they can anticipate a hit and protect themselves. Going out of bounds is Josh's best bet but if he's in the open field he needs to just run it like Gore. Lower the shoulders, two hands on the ball, run some people over because if he slides before contact it's almost a sure thing that someone is going to dive for his head and neck.

Can't be mad about people's opinions. There's people in here saying the weather sucks. Well I lived in SW Florida for nearly 10 years and personally, I think their weather sucks. No change in season, deadly storms and so ***** hot you sit inside like it's a blizzard or something. It's overcrowded, expensive and all around pretty terrible. Unless you love to boat, fish or are a lizard man of some sort it ain't that great. I personally love WNY. Other people have different opinions and that's OK. That's why this country is great, something for everyone.

OK Boomer. Another aspect of the college game I love is paying attention to the guys you know are going to come up to the NFL. The NFL is very star player driven, and to watch these guys stories start from before the draft is great. Having been someone who watched Houston and Ed Oliver crush Lamar Jackson in college gives a nice perspective to this game and maybe more hope than some of the older, cynical, miserable fans.

College is far more entertaining to watch. Aside from watching the Bills, I can't sit and watch an NFL game all the way through. This year especially, the prime time games have just been awful for the most part. People arguing against college because of blow outs must only get small market teams playing big schools on TV because there have been a ton of great, marquee match ups this year. The rivalries aren't manufactured like they are in the NFL. The overtime rule is far superior. I've watched a few triple and quadruple overtime games in my time and they are INTENSE. The targeting rule is excellent and you will see it come to the NFL if they are serious about player safety. What costs you playing time in college will cost you money in the NFL and possibly suspensions if you're a repeat offender. While you can have a defensive slugfest in college, the rules are geared towards offenses scoring points. Isn't that what the NFL tries to do every year?

Clutch gene, sure, Elway but athletically he is Steve Young.

Hmmm... section 27 seems to be missing... We share both so good call on my part. No wonder she didn't want to be on the mortgage.

Been a long time since our team was the one that could run their mouths a little. Loved it.

I am curious though, does the fact that I purchased a home recently significantly reduce the risk of my wife stabbing me?

It's about time we're good enough that someone on OUR team is talking ***** for once.

Moon McNabb McNair Vick Williams Culpepper and Cunningham with Williams is kind of a toss up at 5. I'll give the Super Bowl MVP the benefit of the doubt. Yes, yes I was.
