My hive mind cannot sync up properly until it knows why a section was in italics

Not sure if they can call up the whole practice squad or if there is a limit on that on a per game basis

I've read through about 5 pages of this and want to share my thought, hopefully I'm not repeating something on the following 8 pages. I think there are lots of good problems being pointed out as the reason for the O's struggles. But I think it is a "moving" problem. Is it Diggs is getting old/injured? Maybe, but he still had more than a step on the missed bomb yesterday, and had a key 11 yard catch late on 3rd and 8 against the Chargers. Is it the O-line? Sometimes they are excellent and other times we have free rushers coming at Allen. Allen off platform/too aggressive? Sometimes. But we seem to have a lot of untimely drops on perfectly thrown balls also that derail drives. Is it the play calling? We've seen good and then some not as good. Time will tell if Joe Brady can zig to the defenses' zag, but it feels like we're in a better spot than with Dorsey. I think some of this is also Josh/Brady not being ready for the rock/paper/scissors at times of the defensive play calls (hot routes available against blitz, don't get happy feet when there's a spy and no pressure but DO scramble when there's not a spy, etc.) Then there are untimely penalties that derail drives, at times legit and at times seeming ticky tack/wrong (maybe that's my bills-colored glasses). You put it all together and I still believe the offense is capable of putting it all together and looking unstoppable with the pieces we have (oh how I miss the days of our "no punt" streak), but there seems to always be something killing a drive, but that something shifts from drive to drive. If we just start executing with all 11 on each play things would look so much better. Are we missing practice time with Josh's injury/load management? Are we lacking a sense of urgency? Is the O coordinator change in mid-season causing growing pains? TLDR: It's not one thing, it's a failure of all 11 to execute consistently.

Let off some steam, Bennett!

Don't knock the pet rock Guy made a million dollars Haiku not for you

Isn't Joe Mixon hurt?

"Jim, I've never seen a QB play this well, even after a live amputation of his arm on TV during the game!"

Did Lawrence get benched or hurt? My game cast says Beathard QBed the past two drives

Thanks for the jinx you jive turkey!

Without even getting into tie breakers, if the Bills finish with 7 losses we would need the following: Steelers, Broncos, and Bengals all lose 1 game to get to 8 losses. And one of the AFC South teams (Jags, Texans, Colts) lose 2 games to get to 8 losses. Some of these teams play each other so some of these losses are guaranteed. I'm sure there are other paths (Browns go 0-3, more AFC South losses allows for non-afc South teams to win out, tie breakers), but this to me is most likely and easy to understand. I'll worry about tie breakers in final week (if necessary).

Catalan!? Send me some fuet

Browning's miracle ducks finally being intercepted !!

Keenan Allen and Joey Bosa and Justin Herbert all out!? Bills better roll tonight

And because I am a seasoned Bills fan, I placed wagers on all of them

Don't remember how many but I think Brian Brohm had a game like that for the Packers

Somebody give me updated odds to put in my veins

How's that 30.5 over/under looking?

I mean, they just lost 6-0. I'm down with cheering for a 2-0 Pats* win. Hurts their draft position, helps the Bills's playoff chances, and shouldn't do much for the Pats'* morale. Edit: But I ain't watching that *****

https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/39043021/new-england-patriots-mac-jones-quarterback-man-muddled-moment It's a long read but if you want to escape from the Bills' season for a time this should make you smile

Why would a Colts win help the Bills chances?

Very even game. Turnovers were what tilted the scales toward Michigan.

Go Blue!

Convert Gabe to TE and we can start running 3 TE sets
