What's most interesting is that the Defense is built around a bend but don't break zone coverage style. With that philosophy they "shouldn't" be sitting at the top in Yards Per Game. They 'should' be giving up a ton of yards, but not as many points. Very strange. But for those who think it's a statistical mirage, you really don't get those after 10 games. Those things occur much earlier in the season when you haven't played enough games to bend the average.

I've always felt that each Division should have its own bye week. It would keeps things more even in the divisional races.

First Sammy, now this!! WTF

I would play Barkley Week 17 and see if he can play well again...
If he can sign him as the backup next year...
I guess I'd wonder why/if the Jets wouldn't call him up this afternoon. McCown looked horrible and the Jets have their own injured first round rookie...and Darnold went to USC, so he has that in common with Barkley. And if you're Barkley, would you rather play in New York City or Buffalo NY?
-
Because 90% of this Board has decided that USC cannot produce a starting NFL QB....where as they all know that Wyoming is a QB Factory!

The real question is whether Barkley tells them to go *&^^ themselves, and uses yesterday's performance as a springboard for a Contract somewhere else.

Barkley was excellent on Sunday. Pretty much a perfect game considering expectations.
But he could follow it up with a 5 interception game in his next start. That’s usually how this works.
It's pretty much the same if you haven't been bowling in years. Your first game is great, but then muscle memory gives way to thinking too much and it's a mess.

He certainly looked viable yesterday, but he did get away with a couple of bad passes that easily could have been picks. I hope he sticks to give the team a reliable mentor/spot starter who can fll in for Allen.
Come on people! Yes, he got away with a couple. So does pretty much every starting QB in every game! Give Barkley a break. I'm amazed he even knew enough of the plays to run an entire game worth of offense. It sure didn't look like a short leash to me.

The Trade value is what it is. The real problem was it saddled them with Peterman this year, which beget Andersen, and so on.

Now if he can just get the beard to grow in a little longer and we're there!

Seasons take all kinds of twists and turns. Looking back over the years, the Bills have found all sorts of ways to get to 7-9. Dying to see if this is another one.

You must not pay attention to what NFL teams do once they realize they aren't making the playoffs. Younger players get chances to get on the field and it's especially important for Allen yo acclerate his learning curve. You capitalizing words isn't making your point any stronger by the way.
Keep your shirt on. Caps are simply easier than underlining text. And, I’d still start Barkley. The team looked like they were having fun with him, and he looked like he was having fun too. It makes a difference.

3-7 record. They are done for the season with regard to 2018 playoff aspirations. The players know Josh Allen is the future of the franchise and you will see more young guys getting chances as we did today. Playing Barkley makes no sense.
This is a TEAM sport played by men. The other 51 guys in the locker room want the best player to play at EVERY position EVERY game! They are NOT putting their bodies on the line for the development of a future anything ...and Allen knows that. And, if you’re right, with six games still remaining there’s more than enough time for Barkley to stink and then Allen will get his chance to return.

For what purpose?
Because you play to win. When, and if, Barkley plays poorly, then you let Allen play again. You’ll get ZERO push back from the locker and YOU don’t get a vote!
-
You start Barkley! Period.

I didn’t watch the video and was never really a big Ferguson fan...but that playoff game against the Chargers where he played on one leg was one was of the gutsiest things I’ve ever witnessed in sports. He earned a ton of respect that day!

Yav...I’m referring only to the stadium itself. Not the fans or game day atmosphere. Too bad about your KC experience. We had the same in Oakland and would NEVER go back. I’m interested to see what it’ll be like in Vegas.

The league in its greed for expansion has watered itself down. There just aren’t enough elite QBs or HCs.
IMHO The ‘problem’ is not that aren’t enough elite quarterbacks. The problem is that right there are a handful who simply won’t retire even while playing at an incredibly high level. We’ve really not seen this before. Those half dozen guys know more about the game and the play than the coaches on either sideline do. That generation can’t play forever...or can they?

I think I can win you over...
Its hot here, the hotter the weather the less clothing on the hot women. Not to mention Westgate is right there and they just opened a Top Golf so there's a lot to do in the area after the game.
Well...there is that!
Out of curiosity, have you been to Dallas or Minnesota? Unbelievable.

Sorry, but Arizona. Great location, great stadium and looks great from the outside.
A grass field in a dome, the field actually can be moved out of the stadium for sunlight, water and concerts.
Nah! It’s super dark inside. I’ve been there and was not a big fan...at all.

I’m not sure I buy the premise. If you look at the current standings in each Division, with the exception of the Patriots, it’s not hard to recall a recent season when the standings in each of them were completely flipped from top to bottom. Try it and see!
-
I’ve been to a few. I’d rank Minneapolis and Dallas at the top. Both are enclosed but have so much natural light that you feel like you’re outside. Nicely done!
-
What in the world is the point? Are there good teams and bad teams? Yes there are! Is it systemic? No it’s not. The sample size and length are not long enough to draw any conclusions other than teams with good coaching, ownership and quarterbacking tend to do better. NO KIDDING!
-
I'm guessing there are a lot of starting interior lineman that were not taken in the First Round. With this season pretty much in the crapper, I'd like to see the Bills try out as many of their youngsters as possible. What more do we have to see from Vlad to know that he's terrible? And for that matter, what do we need to see from Benjamin? Put the kids in and let's see what they can do!
Can We Finally Give McBeane The Benefit of the Doubt?

Everyone knows the long term plan at QB is for Josh Allen to take over. The bigger questions are at O Line, WR and TE. I have no idea why the Bills have wasted so much time this year with Vlad, Benjamin and Clay. All three of those guys are clearly done, or are playing like they want to be done. If Allen needs time on the field, can't the same be said for Teller, Foster and Croom?
