11/3/24 Game 9 GAMEDAY! Bills vs Dolphins 1st Half Game Thread
HappyDays replied to BuffaloBill's topic in The Stadium Wall
Going to be tough sledding without Cooper. At least we have Shakir. Him missing against Houston gave our passing offense no chance -

So our offense actually gained like 25 yards after the punt -

Nice coverage Rasul! Perfect timing to knock the ball away without drawing a penalty -

Yes it's been a problem all year. Seattle was the only game where the run worked pretty well on 2nd down. -

One of the beat reporters said Elam was the starting CB in pregame warmups. -

Shakir IMO. Ramsey shut Coleman down in week 2. I know Coleman has developed since then but I would stay away from that matchup personally. Shakir against Kader Kohou's backup is a plus matchup. -

HappyDays replied to Chandler#81's topic in The Stadium Wall
Not too concerned about Benford. Elam has played well against Miami. Cooper being out really sucks because all the WRs get pushed back up to a target share they're not really built for. We should run the ball down their throats today and hope that Coleman keeps building on what he did the last two weeks. Miami is going to clog the middle of the field and dare us to beat them outside. -
Cook/Shakir/Oliver/Benford vs Hall/Wilson/Williams/Gardner
HappyDays replied to Chugga's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm not gonna analyze player for player but sure there are a lot of RBs in the league that could be reasonably classified as 2nd tier. There's also a question of how much drop off you get from 2nd tier to 3rd tier RBs in terms of real production. I'm not advocating to give Cook a 2nd contract. Just saying I rate him as a significantly better all around RB than Hall and I really like his skill set for our offense in particular. -
Cook/Shakir/Oliver/Benford vs Hall/Wilson/Williams/Gardner
HappyDays replied to Chugga's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah I just don't agree with that at all. Hall misses too many rushing lanes and he has mediocre lateral movement. Give him a wide open lane with space and he can possibly score a 70 yard TD, but that doesn't happen frequently enough to make up for his weaknesses IMO. He had that one run against us that should have been a TD but he just kept running along the sideline which gave Rapp an easy angle to make the tackle, and the Jets ended up getting no points on that drive. On that same play I can almost guarantee Cook makes one cut to the middle and gets in the endzone. -

I get myself in trouble when I say things like that because I don't think through exactly how many players I would define as "elite." McCaffrey, Barkley, Henry, Kamara, and Robinson for sure. Then you have a 2nd tier that's probably like Taylor, Mixon, Dobbins, Jones? I'm doing this off the top of my head. Cook I think I would put in the lower end of that 2nd tier. I don't know how you would classify RBs like Achane and Gibbs where it's very boom or bust. Putting that list together now, saying he's close to elite is probably a stretch too far. I'll say this - for this offense with this QB I value Cook's traits more than I would value say Joe Mixon even though Mixon is probably the better all around RB in a vacuum. We get the benefit of defenses giving us a lot of open space within 5 yards of the LoS because of Allen under center so I value the burst and cutting and pass catching ability that Cook gives us over a more traditional back like Mixon. -
Cook/Shakir/Oliver/Benford vs Hall/Wilson/Williams/Gardner
HappyDays replied to Chugga's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yeah I don't know where all this hype comes from for Breece Hall. Seems like it's only a Bills fan thing, maybe because he was talked about as a 1st round option for us and he happened to have a couple good games against us. Jets fans on social media complain about his vision, there are too many times when a hole is there and he misses it. Cook has been outstanding in that respect especially this year where I'm not sure I've seen him miss a single rushing lane. Only thing that leaves you wanting with Cook is his contact balance but you can't have it all (and Hall isn't really any better in that area). Cook's burst plus his quick feet plus his vision makes him pretty close to an elite RB IMO. He's having his most complete year so far too. -
TNF. Jets Texans. Who do we want to win tonight?

Nah Cook is much better. Hall is a pure straight liner with mediocre vision. -

Kenyon Green might be the worst IOL starter in the league. Why did Houston stop running after the penalty? Bobby Slowik is the latest in a long line of offensive coaches that gets away from what his team does well just for the sake of it. -

Rodgers has been terrible since they traded for Davante Adams. They should trade him away to save their season -

HappyDays replied to Billyhouseman's topic in The Stadium Wall
He is having a bit of a sophomore slump. I've not been impressed with his ability to handle pressure in this game. A lot of young QBs struggle with that including our own back in the day so nothing against him. -

Houston should run Mixon 50 times in this game. Every time Stroud drops back to pass something bad happens. -

Houston forgot about their OL in the offseason. The same problem that got them blown out in the divisional round is still a problem. -
Week 9, Fish v. Bills, PREDICT THE SCORE!
HappyDays replied to Freddie's Dead's topic in The Stadium Wall
Bills 34 Dolphins 17 I don't have anything interesting to say about this one. We own the Dolphins, period. -
I'm sure. Allen is elite at leading his WRs away from hospital hits. Underrated trait of his.

Another benefit I thought of the Jets winning - I want as many teams as possible vying for the 7th seed. Right now it feels like Pittsburgh (or Baltimore?) and Denver have very good odds to be the 5th and 6th seed. The last team I want in as the 7th seed is the Bengals. Jets, Chargers, or Colts are the dream scenario. -
I think my favorite play is the one 37 seconds in when two DBs get their hands on him (including Devon Witherspoon, no slouch) and he just pushes through the contact like a turnstile to get wide open downfield. That's the kind of play I envisioned when I advocated for him to be our pick. For good measure here he is getting around press coverage stacking Woolen and forcing a DPI to prevent a TD: Down for down this was the most physically dominating performance I've seen from a Bills WR since I don't know when.
