Buffalo’s Goat

Pro football Reference advanced stats are in: Notes: Diggs caught 10 of 11 targets. Not ad advanced stat, just a good one. Kincaid was very impactful. PFR has a “success” rating, which gives a number out of 100 for yards gained vs down and distance. DK had a 100, meaning very good. Hardy and Cook did not do great on that success scale. Bernard was credited with 1 missed tackle. He was didn’t allow a reception (0-1), made 11 tackles, and had a QB hurry on his 1 blitz. Milano’s numbers were very similar (1-2, 7 yards and 1 missed tackle), plus a pick. Tre Day was targeted 3 times, gave up 2 catches for 1 yard and a TD. Did have 2 missed tackles (ouch) Benford also 3 targets, 2 catches for 26 yards. Zero missed tackles. Hyde and Poyer were solid, maybe rusty. You realize Josh isn’t going to sit here and answer questions at these pressers like the fans and media are the ultimate authority figures. He owes none of us any explanations/apologies and gives us all ‘coach speak’ answers because it’s what he was taught to do.

Lock clockwork, It’s Wednesday and I’m getting excited again after being disappointed with the team🤣

I found his presser and straightforward and honest as he tends to be for these. Heavily insinuates he was too hyped up, and needs to remind himself pregame to stay in the right mindset. He said the gameplan was good (I agree) and he tried to do too much when he didn’t need too. Said there are times in the past when he would take shots and they work, and it’s a double edge sword. He’s a rocket arm gunslinger with ADHD lol

He’s still the man, still the franchise, still the GOAT. There is no question. Kid is in a rut, a bad one, but he will pull out of it. Dabs definitely had a special father/mentor roll with Allen that is absent and missed. He and Dorsey may have a fine relationship, but I doubt it was as deep.

I don’t mind if Josh only throws for 225 and 1 TD, I just want to see sound decisions making overall.

This single loss changed nothing, but I noticed a change in Josh last year that was concerning. He’s in a rut, a bad one. It’s fixable, he just hasn’t pulled out of it yet. Most players go through it. We’ve seen seasons where a guy has a down year. That said, I still 100% believe all our wildest dreams are still obtainable this year, and the biggest reason for that is still 17.

Incorrect. From guys who actually watched and studied the All-22, Bernard surprised them. Instinctive and good in zone coverage. Struggled playing off blockers but he’s 220. Milano struggles with that as well. “Encouraged” is the word used to describe him from what I’ve heard. Bills want pass coverage LBers, Bernard fits the role well.

Thing that worries me is this was an issue last year as well.

I think (not to blame Dorsey) that he has an ultra aggressive OC, and his ego wants to prove he’s still GOAT Josh. Defensives have been feasting off his ago.

Cam started to break down physically, Allen is having some mental regression which should be fixable.

Yes, nearly immediately too. Seemed like 10 minutes after this thread went up.

Not to mention, while yes the pressure came from RT and LG (PFF means grain of salt), Allen actually had a very low pressure rate.

Thank you for posting that. 2nd half of the GB game is when everything changed.

The 2nd INT, 3rd and 2 I think, Diggs was open short, would’ve been a 1st.

Terry responded QUICK!

If he didn’t say that, there should be a massive counter lawsuit coming.

I saw McD and Diggs both tell him to play smart last night. He doesn’t need to be hero ball 24/7.

Bernard had ups and downs, but I think he showed some promise at MLB.

Rookie Josh was endearing and adorable, Prime Time Josh was exciting. Elite Josh was next level, God Mode Josh is the best in the game, But something happened the second half of the GB game last year, he hasn’t been the same guy ever since. The argument can be made that it’s actually since DaBoll left. I saw McD and Diggs both tell Josh play smart tonight. Hollywood Josh? Madden Josh? Arrogant Josh? I don’t like it. I don’t think there is ‘no reason to be concerned’ anymore in regards to his decision making.

Alrighty my friends, see you on the other side!

Wasn’t he pick 27? Not like we grabbed him at 10.

No, week 1 has no impact on any narrative barring injury.

So falling asleep at 7:45? Haha

35 going on 25 😉 Thank you for the advice, much appreciated!
