More TD passes and more long drives. Cutting our turnovers over the first 5 games in half over the next 5 games would be huge. I suspect we will do that in the upcoming 3 game home stand.

Good teams win games. Years past we lose 2/3 close games to NYJ, CIN or TEN. This year we are 3-0. As for the Pats a great team beats a great team at home.

It’s clear Mayfield’s ceiling is much lower than Allen’s. Allen has all the tools to be a good QB. Mayfield has talent but nights like this make you wonder.

I wish Zay well. Good luck kid.

They are really good in the secondary and linebacker level. But I think their weakness will be depth and overcoming inevitable injuries. They appear good at defending the pass but I don’t feel their run defense is as tough as people think.

Dan Snyder should fire himself. Horrible owner.

KB had a great rookie season, followed by an ACL & never regained his rookie form.

Duke Williams is the type of guy you want on your side in a street fight. While Zay Jones is busy kicking shatter proof glass.

Zay might rebound don’t put a fork in him yet.

He can’t continue throwing picks when he doesn’t have to. He was very accurate today and decisive. Loved how he attempted to slide. He proved he can do it.

Mistake in my opinion to start him.

I’m in Portland area too. Go Bills!

Even if cleared by the medical team, you preferably want to give his brain a 21 day rest over a 7 day rest. If cleared I’d suit him up, make the Titans prepare for him, and go with Barkley. Do you think given his style of play he’s going to play drastically safer? What we know about concussions is they are easier to reoccur once you have them. We don’t fully understand the science but the Bills Org should place his long term health over trying to win one game that Barkley should be capable of winning.

I think he suits up as the backup but they start Barkley. No way Allen plays Sunday. Too much risk not enough reward.

In all fairness to Mahomes the Bills traded back with KC to acquire the draft capital to acquire Allen & trade up for Edmunds. So it’s obvious Allen + Edmunds > Mahomes in the eyes of Beane & McD.

They schemed it up good, they knew we’d be in man coverage. Only thing I disagree with defensively is anticipate this play you either run a cover 2 zone with one deep, and a spy rover in the short middle, or simply play a DIME, 4 rushers, 1 linebacker, 4 corners 2 safeties, where the LB sits in the middle and shades coverage over to the side where the pick is coming. If timed good enough the WR gets leveled or you break on the pass and get a pick 6.

Allen needs to take what the defense is giving him and that entails checking down to the RB. Pats played without Hightower and we just needed more positive plays on 1st and 2nd down to avoid 3rd and long. Allen will improve but the question is why wasn’t this noted before halftime - getting Yeldon & Gore out into the flat?

Would like to a see a proset formation with two backs in the backfield where they use Gore in a RPO shotgun fake handoff and flood Yeldon out the backside wheel route. That kind of motion would make the Patriots commit to the run and open up the RB in the flat over a crossing WR route or the TE down the seam.

This game won’t be easy with either QB starting. Let’s be real we aren’t a dynamic offense. My thinking is Allen is cleared to play, dresses and is listed as the backup. If Barkley goes down they bring in Allen and mostly hand the ball off. This is a game where you want to throw the ball as little as possible. It’s going to be won in the trenches. Mariotta is a very capable QB who can run with the ball, so it will be important for Milano & Edmunds to spy on him.

In all fairness Allen is 23. When Brady was 23 he was a rookie riding the pine learning from Drew Bledsoe. Allen has a lot of improvements to make but I wouldn’t give up on him over one poor performance. If he cuts down on the bonehead TOs he may even turn into a decent QB.

Still not enough recognition that Beasley didn’t throw a block on that scramble.

Belichick won the game.

Allen makes stupid throws into double coverage. He doesn’t protect the football when scrambling or in the pocket. He plays loose and I suppose that’s good, but this haphazard ball security is not acceptable in the NFL. He needs to protect the football. Allen claimed to have watched a ton of Brady film, did he not note that Brady always guns the ball at WRs feet if the play is busted?

I want to rewatch the game but I have a feeling it will make me more pissed.

McD needs to get Allen to not throw into double coverage so much.
