Sammy Watkins' Rib

Don't follow hockey. What's the deal with Sabres vs. Penguins?

LOL. What? It's not that hard to look at ones post history. If you are not 100% positive about your team 100% of the time you get labeled a Pats troll? That's how it works around here I guess.

It's still like $30 a month at least to get ESPN with SLING TV isn't? Pretty sure that is what it was the last time I checked. I'd be better off just bundling my internet with the cable or satellite company if I really wanted to pay that much for ESPN.

Nothing about cord cutting?? His top four doesn't include cord cutting at all? Cord cutting is #1 IMO. I don't watch a lick of MNF or the exclusive NFL network TNF games due to cord cutting. I'm sure I am not alone.

I do that all the time. Not sure what the big deal is here.

Tonight's game is huge. Texans could easily pull out the win. They could easily lose too.

I think I miss read CA OC's post. I thought when he said the rest of our games are against the AFC he was speaking to both the Bills and Ravens.

Outside of putting a legitimate ready now franchise QB on this team like a Rodgers, Brees, Brady, I think Taylor is exactly what this team needs right now. The o-line has big time issues. Taylor is able to cover up some of those issues with his maneuverability. Look at Peterman against the Chargers. He was a sitting duck. Couldn't escape. D-line knew exactly where he would be. And that was compounded with poor decisions to either not take a sack or getting rid of the ball a fraction of a second too late. The poor o-line is also evident in the running game. We need at least two hands to count the number of times McCoy was met immediately in the backfield yesterday. A couple of occasions he was even met five yards in the backfield.

If anyone here can claim to be a fan at any point of anyone of Losman, Edwards, Fitz, EJ,Orton, and if you say you never were then you are clearly lying, then how could you not have some appreciation for Taylor?

Great breakdown CA OC, but I think you missed one crucial game that kind of blows all the tiebreaker stuff up. Any tied scenario, such as 9-7 must include a win against Detroit for Baltimore if we are to win a tiebreaker against them. If we both end up 9-7 but they lose to Detroit that would automatically mean they have a better conference record then us and no need to go to common games/SOV tiebreakers. That is not to say we should hope for a Baltimore victory over Detroit. Just the opposite. Hope they lose that game, the Pitt game and any other loss will give us the wild card outright.

The new "in" thing seems to be half the team posing for a picture in the end zone.

Boy, has Hunt falling off.

I see 9-7. Split with N.E. and Miami and beat the Indy. I see the Ravens also finishing 9-7 and I believe they would likely win the tiebreaker over us if that is the case. hospitable: friendly, welcoming

If the team is still bad is he really a franchise QB then? (I am assuming you are talking about QBs OP and not just franchise players in general). Franchise QB and winning typically go hand and hand.

We threw at least one to Zay.

If they thought that then why did the bench Taylor last week??

James White and Lewis are no slouches. Patriots would rather have them available for the passing game.

Campbell was a very nice free agent addition too. Well run teams can get back to the playoffs without sucking for 5-10 years. But since we are not one of those we should probably try the route that teams like Detroit, LA Rams and Jacksonville have taken. Then again we might just end up being like the Browns and never make the playoffs despite all the sucking.

Surprisingly not as bad as this one which has set team records for how bad they have been on this three game losing streak. Yet again another classic, "can't get any worse than this", situation that does in fact manage to get worse. We as Bills fans know this all too well.

But how many of us have been saying draft a QB in the 5th round? We passed on Mahomes and Watson. Watson looks special. Mahomes looked pretty darn good in pre-season. I think those are the kind of QBs we are craving to draft. First round talented QBs. But I guess since Losman and Manuel were flops we should just never draft QBs early anymore.

All those QBs with the exception of Luck played their first game in a much less pass friendly league then what we have seen since 2010 or so. It's not uncommon at all in today's NFL to see rookie QBs have immediate success.

Rosen will come out for sure. The question is will Darnold come out? We really need him too because both those guys will go 1 and 2. Cleveland has to draft one of them #1 overall. That leaves whoever they don't draft available at #2 hopefully where the 49ers will be picking. I like other QBs in the first like Mayfield and Jackson but we can likely trade up to only 5-10 range to get one of them. There are so many teams this year in need of QB's due to age of their current one or just not having one at all, that I could easily see 5 going in the first 12 picks if Darnold comes out. I've never understood the Bridgewater hype. Very mediocre season before his injury. Somehow the injury inflated his actual value and importance. He came out the same year as Carr but Carr looks like a much better QB to me. Not sure Bridgewater can reach the ceiling that a guy like Carr could. And with our offensive line Bridgewater would get killed. Not real mobile and and he has a really thin build.

Well not obtaining a good QB is guaranteed to fail for us. I mean that's basically a proven Scientific Law now right? 17 consecutive years and counting of data to back it up.

LOL. Pretty sure that is not possible. But whatever.

We can't get over the 5 wins through 7 games hurdle. It's our Kryptonite. 2008, 2011, 2017 Like clock work, this team starts 4-2 and even 5-2 but come Halloween and till December, they get crushed. Then they win a couple of games in December to keep themselves mathematically still in the hunt. If we could eliminate the entire month of November from the football schedule we would actually have a pretty decent football team.
