I love that the Bills want to run a vertical offense. That is fantastic news. The problem is, they don't have 1 player on offense, besides the QB, equipped to run that kind of offense right now. We have no WRs and an O-Line that can't block anything. That is a recipe for disaster for a vertical scheme. I am all for getting a vertical offense in place here. But, get some players that can run that style of offense first. Right now, everything should be short and quick hitting with the occasional deep shot. I haven't seen more than 1 or 2 quick passes all day. Just a terrible offensive plan this week.

Hughes got mugged.......

Yeah.... I am expecting things like this to pop up all over. Anything professional sports can do to make things easier for fans to spend money.....

Adam Schefter‏Verified account @AdamSchefter Bills’ RB LeSean McCoy, listed as questionable with cracked rib cartilage, is unlikely to play Sunday vs. Vikings, but he wants to see how it feels pregame before making a final decision, per source.

Yup......he was my QB1 in this draft as well. It's too early to tell which QBs in this class will be great, but we just need our guy to be one of them. We didn't have a chance to draft Mayfield. One thing is for sure, though....we need to get Allen some help in order for him to have a chance.

Man.....Allen was ripped apart this week for what I would consider an OK first start. This week alone, I saw Darnold talked about like the 2nd coming and compared to Aaron Rodgers. All along, we have been told by the national media that we were stupid for getting rid of Taylor because he was a good veteran QB and that he would finally get his vindication because of all the good talent in Cleveland. How's that going so far? I'm not ragging on Darnold or anyone else, but I hope everyone is watching this game tonight and realizes that Allen is doing just as much as these other guys, with far less talent around him, to this point. Allen has a LONG way to go, but he doesn't deserve to be talked about being the ugly step-child and as so much less than these other rookie QBs. He is right there with them and, hopefully, shows good progress each week whether we're winning or not.

I'd love to see this just for the reactions......

No..... More liked expecting it to happen and shocked if it didn't. This has the Pat* written all over it.

Look....it wasn't pretty. A ton of mistakes. But if you don't think there were some good things in there to build off of, I don't know what to tell ya. Looking forward to seeing some improvement in the weeks ahead.

Well, things aren't going to end well in this game, but the good thing is that the team actually showed some signs of life in the 2nd half. The key is building on this. Allen will have a full game under his belt and some good and bad things to learn from. The defense needs to figure out how to duplicate this second half performance right from the opening kickoff. It's gonna be a while before we win, but each week we just need to see some improvement.

And start who at MLB instead? He's all they got.....

2nd professional game....... It's gonna happen....

First game..... Wow.....

Terrible play by Allen there, but it is going to happen. The defense needs to pick him up.

Foster needs to create a PI there.

Look, he isn't playing perfect by any means, but some on here think he should be playing like Rivers out there in his first game. It was never going to happen. What's important is that each game we see progression in these areas he is struggling with today.

Pass wasn't perfect on 3rd down for sure, but I want to see my NFL WRs make those plays to help out the rookie.....

More free rushers..... Whether that's on Josh or the line, that needs to be fixed ASAP.....

As soon as the helmet comes off, the play is dead......

He thought it was going to be a safety..... Can't blame him there with everything that was going on.....

That could have been really bad...... Hope Jones is OK.....

Nice drive there. Allen wasn't perfect with his throws, but his teammates made the plays for him. That's what needs to happen. Allen will learn from the mistakes and learn to put the ball in better spots as he grows up, but right now it is about the decisions, going to the right spots, and taking what is there. But his teammates helped him there and they got through it. Good things to take away and learn from. It would be nice to see the defense get off the field quickly and set the offense back up to see if they can keep rolling.

Just for fun, if you haven't taken a look yet, take a peak at Fitz's stats in TB today after what he did last week......

Did you expect something different? Rookie making his first start, no offensive line, no weapons, and a defense that can't stop a nosebleed. Not sure what you would expect going into the game. There is going to be a ton of these this season. I'm honestly not sure when, or if, we will win a game.
