Who is playing on the oline? I saw Glenn going in and out was Wood out also?
-
Is it though? Obviously Sammy impacts a game, but once the Bills opened up the offense through the air they were able to move the ball with relative ease.
I noted that they did better throwing downfield than RUN RUN PASS. But this offense goes from dangerous to much less explosive without him. He draws all the best coverage and leaves other guys wide open.
-
And what does this have to do with the game? Were you watching it?
-
Rex Ryan defense not working right now. Against Brady and Manning not even close to good enough. They will feast on crappy QB's. Could it be too complicated or players not ready in it yet?
Greg Roman really lost the game by running the same inside run on first down for the entire first half. Let Tyrod go downfield and let's throw on 1st down way more.
Injuries mounting. We have way too many guys out this early in the year.
Anger on players has to be controlled. I would have liked to see our linebackers make a tackle or two up the middle.
Let's also give Giants credit. Manning and Coughlin have won 2 Superbowls. We aren't beating guys like that with crappy play like we saw today.
-
It's too early to panic. This team needs to play better. Period.
Anyone that predicts that we will keep playing like this is completely guessing.
I also want all the people that hate Watkins to show up now and apologize. This team is completely different without him.
-
All the idiots will come out of the woodwork now. Our talent level minus McCoy, Watkins, Williams and more was similar to the Giants. You don't win with 17 penalties, free first downs when your defense makes a stop, missed tackles, and terrible playcalling.
I thought Hackett was back with the same run on first down up the middle every time. Tyrod had to throw on 3rd and long all first half. Once they started letting him throw downfield the Bills looked like the better team. But they couldn't dig out of the hole they created along with the crazy penalty everytime the offense made a big play.

A new challenge is going to be keeping talent and replacing talent that we lose. I am not saying we are going to lose a lot of guys, But I would say it will be hard to keep all of them. I wasn't expecting Incognito to play so well. I thought he would be just a one year player for us. Looks like we will want to re-sign him now too, which is just another person to add to our list for the offseason.
It will be pretty difficult to keep bradham, harvin, incognito, Glenn, etc know that we also have too look down the road in re-signing Gilmore and possibly a franchise QB.
A lot of it will depend on how much the cap goes up. If it goes up a good amount, then maybe with some creativity we can keep our stars mainly intact
This can be done because the Bills have an awful lot of talent playing at a below market rate. Sammy Watkins, Roberts Woods, Tyrod Taylor, Cordy Glenn, Seantrel Henderson, John Miller, Preston Brown, Nigel Bradham, Ronald Darby are all below market rate.
Now we will end up losing 2-4 of these guys over the next 3 years. But with the great drafting we should be able to replace and even upgrade a few of these. Plus the fact that we will lose free agents puts us in the Patriots and Ravens model of getting comp picks free!
The only thing I hate is that there is one team that happens to be ahead of us that we need to find a way to pass while we have this cheap talent.

Patience, grasshopper. Little Jimmy is bulking up on HGH and getting a radio fitted in his helmet so his OC can tell him who's open during plays.
So he's taking the Brady developmental path?
-
As much as I would love Mack, he would be essentially another Dlineman here. You don't drop great pass-rushers into coverage.
I am glad that we have Watkins but we should look for another linebacker that can pass rush next year.
-
I mentioned Rex tried to get Tyrod for Jets previously. Why? He told me it was on advice of Ray Lewis, Ed Reed, Cam Cameron & Jim Caldwell.
-
If we don't keep Incognito and Glenn then we are drafting online with most of our picks next year.
-
When McCoy is 100% you won't be asking why we got him. Karlos and Shady both bring unique skillsets.
-
The injuries are mounting. Sammy Watkins could be out for a while and Lesean McCoy is not healthy. Rambo is great but he keeps injuring Bills...
I normally am not cautious but these injuries are scaring me.
-
The 49er fans out here couldn't wait for him to go. So glad that he did!
Fans are often clueless when it comes to playcalling. I think many of the 49er problems last year resulted from the upcoming Harbaugh/Front Office divorce.
-
Based on what I'm seeing I would have no problem with the Bills drafting Offensive Line with our 1st or 2nd round pick. Get a Center/Guard prospect to replace Wood.
-
Our defense should be rested as they looked like they were going through a walk-through all game...
-
We had a terrible day and game but I feel more depressed by reading some of the post-game takes then I did watching a HOF QB carve us up.
Early in the season and we need to just get rolling now. We played NE and Indy and are 1-1. Time for us to keep improving and the Defense better be ready to take out Miami.
-
Defense was better under Schwartz. I know Brady and Pats had good day vs Bills defense last year too but I liked how Schwartz just let Dline loose as opposed to all this BS Rex is doing which isnt generating any sacks and ends up leaving players in single coverage that shouldn't be.
I keep hearing this. Patriots did the exact thing to us last year. Patriots scored 37 points, Brady 361 yards, 4 TD's. No pass-rush, no defense.
This is just us playing like sh&^ against the Patriots, they have our number.
-
We kept everyone bunched together and Patriots would just line up everyone near the LOS. Roman had a bad game. Still have faith we'll get better. O-Line did Tyrod no favors early.
-
Defensive line and offensive line lost the battle in the trenches. Undisciplined play for all Bills units. Outcoached and outclassed.
Positives. We didn't get knocked out when Patriots tried to finish us off and kept fighting.
Time to move on to next week and just write this off. Dareus, Hughes, Williams, and Williams will have to play much better.
-
Isn't this like Chip Kelly saying he OBJ rated #1 overall on his board? It sounds great but there is no way to know if he's just patting himself on the back for a draft pick he never made.
On the other hand, we do know that Whaley tried to trade up for Carlos Hyde. So sometimes real draft stuff does get out.
-
Sounds like a Colts fan upset that the Bills roster is better.
-
Let's face it, Rex is a great story. Swagger and defense in a league where games often turn into flag football. I also think this team will be ready. Were going to come out swinging.
-
Was it really that bad? Damn, that's not good.
Well, hopefully we will be in a position this offseason to really be able to focus almost solely on OLine through draft and maybe FA, but probably higher draft picks. Although I want to see how the line improves throughout the season.
No, I don't think so. Taylor usually had a clean pocket to throw in. Now I do agree with Whaley that teams are selling out to stop the run so it will be hard to bully anyone unless Taylor can throw. And so far so good as he burned the Colts bad with big plays.
A Few Thoughts About The Game, in no particular order.....

The thing I noticed about the defensive line that I hated was they were NOT attacking the LOS. They seemed to be sitting back. Isn't the whole point of a Rex Ryan defense to attack the LOS and create mismatches? We are getting the worst of both worlds.
We need to get this straightened out now.
Agree. Good teams lose games. The Giants are not as bad as people tried to make them. We just need to keep improving because it's not how you start, it's how you finish.
Taylor looks good despite the bad start to the game. We need to attack on both sides of the ball next week.
