Big Blitz

That was missing White and had a vastly inferior D AND O line. Our corners with a healthy Benford are arguably significantly better than the group from that game.

I’m just going to hope Dorian is legit and then I don’t feel as dejected. Dorian has to play these next 3 games to figure things out. Can always sub for him like we did this week. Bernard - Dorian Dodson - Klein If Dorian is just good, with our D line we should still be great v meh offenses and hopefully ok/just hold on v elite ones.

Not good enough.

Fact checked. All true. The deal they rejected in 2000 was the closest we’ve ever come or will ever come to a peace deal - they walked away essentially saying there’s never going to be a deal.

Giants fan X account - actually a great follow

The Steelers secondary is trash. They lost their big run stuffer Heyward and are 3-2. Just held down the Ravens to 10 points. TJ Watt and Fitzpatrick are the only real players on that D. The Lions lost their prized UFA in Gardner Johnson and now Mosely. The Eagles lost their version of Taron Johnson for the season. The Bengals went to the SB down their top CB and the worst Oline in the league. The Chiefs have gotten there with meh defenses. It’s only decimating if the players and coaches let it be - so long as the D line is in tact: Groot Oliver Von Floyd AJE Philips Ford Settle Jonathan Shaq And Hyde Benford and Dane stay on the field. No reason THAT defense should completely fall off a cliff. I expect a drop off. But no way should any teams not named the Eagles Chiefs Bengals Chargers Dolphins or Jags put up more then 24 on us. In those games we will need to score 30.

If they were riding high I’d be concerned But they’re a disaster and their offense is as decimated as our D. I think they lost their MLB v Miami. 2 rookie corners. If Thomas doesn’t play this game will be close to a bye. They are that bad. This doesn’t mean the team can take them or any team lightly but I can.

Nothing against McD - let me put aside the unforgivable 13 seconds for a minute - he’s a great coach. I personally love him and would run thru a wall for him. But the inconsistency on offense is the risk you run with inexperienced OCs or revolving doors at OCs. Great points OP about the “what is the Bills “go to” play?” It appears it’s still “Let Josh make the incredible happen.” I really wanted that win yesterday because it would have completely erased the “I can feel a let down game coming” vibe this team has at least twice a season that’s costed them home field advantage. A game the coaches assert themselves as elite coaches. The inconsistency on a fully healthy offense is maddening.

Vera-Tucker - torn Achilles This season is a borderline disaster And it sounds like Jefferson’s hamstring injury is going to keep him out awhile.

And if we’re say the 6 seed - that’s likely the Jags Chiefs or Dolphins in Round 1. The AFC North winner has 4 seed written all over them.

I think 11-6 barring any more catastrophic injuries. I think we’ll get to 6-2. Finish 5-4. Losses: Bengals Chiefs Chargers Eagles If we pull off a win in one of these I’d be good. We’re going to beat Dallas at home. Miami might not need to win week 18. So I’m currently leaving that TBD. 10-7 with what could be 6 conference losses might not even make playoffs. Just get in. Hope for the best. Just like I felt after Thanksgiving in 2021. And Thanksgiving in 2022.

This is not normal I’m sorry it’s just not. Either it’s something in how they’re training or the turf or both That’s 2 big pieces on their D now - Gardner Johnson the other - done for the year. Our locker room needs to talk to theirs my guess is Coach Campbell won’t have them feeling sorry for themselves. Not saying McD can’t get them there as well but if last year is an indication and now couple it with the devastating losses this year (and it’s far from over) I have reason to be concerned. My first thought when I saw the look on Von’s face yesterday early in the 2nd half was that blank stare look of like “I can’t believe this ***t. Tre, again, now Matt and DaQuan. Wtf.”

This is what has to change going forward. Time for under center PA to be the feature and start focusing on being a power run team that will throw it all over you if we want instead of being the throw it all over you team and then pretend to be a power run team when we absolutely have to have it. Too much is about to be put on Josh again bc this defense is going to be a disaster come the 2nd half of the season when we play the elite offenses. Need to shift (adjust) the philosophy.

And I’m back in the wth exactly does James Cook do here camp. Meanwhile, Zach Moss looks like Thurman Thomas.

I know - but they did something they didn’t rely just on in house depth. And we might need to do the same anyway. What about Akeim Hicks? He still available?

What do you mean “Arab muscle?” No clue do you? Sit this one out. Go back to the Trump bad threads. You can’t “want Hamas gone” then at the same time claim the “Arabs” need it.

“Israelis must meet a detailed list of criteria to be allowed to own a firearm. They must ask the state for a license, are permitted only one gun at a time, and must even ask for permission to sell their gun. And the Firearms Licensing Department is no rubber stamp: Roughly 40 percent of requests are rejected. Indeed, before even requesting a license, Israelis must meet minimum age requirements, be in good health and of sound mind, and have no criminal record, among other preconditions. There’s more. Once they are granted the right to carry a gun, Israelis are limited to just 50 bullets in their possession at any given time. They must shoot or return old bullets before they can buy new ones, a process that can only take place at tightly regulated shooting ranges where each bullet’s sale is carefully registered. The types of guns permitted also depend on the reason for the license – i.e., a veterinarian may only purchase a gun approved by the government for the killing of animals, a hunter’s license only permits the purchase of a firearm from an approved firearms list kept by the Parks Authority, and so forth.” https://www.timesofisrael.com/comparing-america-to-israel-on-gun-laws-is-dishonest-and-revealing/

So you think history started in 2016 as well. Outstanding. Good to know.

Not how you idiots saw January 6. Democrats. Biggest hypocrites on the planet.

Democrats. Democrats are that stupid.

When the Eagles lost Davis to a sprained ankle last year (I think around week 9) and immediately became a terrible run defense they brought in 2 DTs Suh and Joseph and shored up the D line. You HAVE to do something if you’re still a Super Bowl contender. At the very least it sends a message to the team “we aren’t done.”
