I'm not sure anyone is declaring his career is over....but rather that it should be over in Buffalo.

Come On Happy!
Rogers was getting the ball out of his hands in less than two seconds! Are you trying to tell us that the Bills defense didn't notice? Brady does the same to them twice each year. Allen needs an offense loaded with short slants, screens, etc. Stop trying to throw the ball long so we can all be impressed with this ARM STRENGTH!!!!

Jumping in here late...but the Bills need to trade McCoy right now for some draft picks. He is of ZERO use to this team in 2018. Play Ivory and Murphy and get on with it. There has to be a team out there, on the verge of contending, who could use a Veteran Running Back...right?
-
Allen was a train wreck in virtually every aspect of an NFL QB yesterday. With that said, he is young and learning on the job. Only two questions remain. (1) Can he learn? (2) Will he remain out of the hospital long enough to learn?

Thanks Shaw
On Saturday I posted how we were all going to see whether the Minnesota game was the outlier or whether they were on a clear upward path. The answer is simple...the Vikings game was the outlier! Our only hope is that September is the new August in the NFL and that Sunday was the final preseason game so now the Starters are going to hit the gas pedal. Yeah...right!

We were outscored 75-9 through 6 quarters and now all of a sudden we have a rebuilt defense and all these star draft picks?
We shouldn't give it another minute?
Sunday is going to show whether September is actually the new August in the NFL. Teams are settling in after virtually zero cohesive playing time in preseason. Yes, The Bills looked horrible for the first six quarters but have been a shut down defense in the last six. Go Bills!

The Bills white over blue will always remind me of 1973 when OJ went off for 2003 yards, starting with 250 against NE in the opener on the road that day. Still amazing to me!
-
I’m not sure what all of this chatter is about. Have you already forgotten that less than ONE WEEK ago those same Vikings didn’t even have 30 yards of total offense against the Bills...inside their own ‘dome’ stadium? Things change week to week but one thing that’s been pretty constant is that Thursday Night Football is not a decent measure of ANYTHING! Teams simply don’t have the proper time to prepare.
-
It’s a dynamic situation right now. I’m going to interested to watch how the WR group reacts on Sunday after a big win and the leadership shown by a rookie QB. I’m guessing they start stepping up. There’s no way Allen should demonstrate that kind of heart and grit and NOT have his receivers start fighting for balls. Or is there?

Just now, The Wiz said:
You're right. It's not. Dropping balls that hit him in the hands is the reason to pick on him.
I’m not as apt to pick on a guy who’s young and trying. He doesn’t put himself on the field! The coaches do. I’m way more focused on Benjamin and Zay Jones. Neither of those two have any excuses.

Just now, Sky Diver said:
He lost his passion for the game? I don't know.
If that’s true then Vontae Davis showed him the way out. You can’t tell me that given the chance one of the young wideouts wouldn’t be better than a guy who’s not trying. Bench his arse!

He doesn't seem very motivated.
You’ve got that right. Still, how lazy can a guy actually be week after week? I was at the game in Minnesota and when you’re in a stadium with 70,000 screaming people it’s hard to believe anyone could be that apathetic. Heck, your natural adrenaline would take over...right?
1 minute ago, The Wiz said:The difference is no one is defending KB. Everyone thinks he's looked like garbage.
A couple of fans defending a young player is no reason to pick on the player.
-
While I understand the Foster bashing...a little bit...he’s nowhere near as disappointing as Benjamin, who apparently has lost or forgotten all of the fundamental mechanics required to catch a ball thrown right at his chest! For a guy with his natural size advantage this season has been downright embarrassing.
-
Like others this was one of the first seasons I remember as well. I didn’t attend my first game at The Rockpile until the next season (KC with Len Dawson and Mike Garret). That 68 season shaped my expectations for the Bills from there until today. Somehow now it seems like it’d be easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for this franchise to get it all together for one glorious, possibly miraculous run!

26, I was at the game Sunday with my wife, and we were wondering why were there so many "too many men in the backfield" during one point in the game. Does the All 22 film show what was happening? I told my wife it's typically caused by the outside WR not checking with the Line Judge when they get to the line of scrimmage...so we started focusing on the Bills WRs from that point on and noticed that indeed they WEREN'T actually checking on a regular basis. Thoughts?

Burt Lancaster would have been called for roughing the passer on Deborah Kerr ...
Nor apparently could he be on the Supreme Court!

Anyone can make their own power rankings. The idea should be to list the entire league in one big Division, by record, making some slight adjustments for factors based on which teams have played which, home/away/injuries etc.

I mentioned this in another thread. I was super impressed with Josh Allen after that blown call. He went right to the Ref and told him it was a pass. He KNOWS it’s a pass because that’s where it’s listed in their playbook! It’s not listed as a running play. It may be an ugly pass, but it’s still a pass!
-
It’s a terrible evolution of the rule and is clearly not working to protect the QB. If it was working they wouldn’t need to call it because nobody would be hitting the QB anymore! It doesn’t do much good to call it AFTER the ‘hit’ has been laid. Were there really that many QB concussions in previous years caused by a head slap? As I recall TT hit his head on the ground, not on an opponent! And Jimmy G just went out with a KNEE injury.

phantom holding
I agree! I actually think Bodine simply tripped or lunges forward and the defender fell down. Holding on running plays has become the go to penalty in the new NFL. It’s almost always a horrible call! In this case it had ZERO to do with the actual results of the play.
-
Thanks for the discussion. I was at the game and arguing with a whole bunch of totally clueless Vikings fans. The Bills KNEW it was an incomplete pass because in their playbook that play is considered a passing play...NOT a running play! I was super impressed that Josh knew it right away and told the red instantly.The NFL is a train wreck of rules.
By the way, twice during the game the head referee left his microphone on and almost blew out the stadium speaker system when he blew his whistle. Fans were pissed! He’ll get a horrible grade from the league Office.
-
Are you guys describing Benjamin or Foster? I’m confused.

Enough of this! Got any stock tips? ?

I had the choice between Minneapolis and Green Bay and we chose Minnesota for our annual road trip. Bills fans, if you get the chance, you HAVE TO see the Vikings stadium! It’s amazing! (The fans were OK but they turned on their home team quickly...and many were flat out ignorant of the rules.) but the stadium is a must see....WELL DONE

Please don't overthink this. The 2018 Bills are not very good at all. The quality of their opponents, or where they have played them, has almost nothing to do with it. Life goes on!
