  1. Man I wish we had Javonte Williams. Dude is a beast.
  2. You bite your tongue! Fowler and Herbstreit are American treasures! At least when Herbstreit isn’t calling out college players love of the game for opting out of meaningless bowl games. 😂
  3. 24 is such an ugly number for Ingram. No LB/DE should wear that. DBs/RBs only.
  4. I completely agree on throw and stop the throw. It’s a passing league. People, including myself sometimes, get all hung up about the defense giving up rushing yards. Of course you’d love to be able to do everything well on defense, but unless the opponent is keeping your higher octane offense off the field because they are constantly running it down your throat (e.g., colts game), I don’t see much of the problem. As long as they aren’t scoring at will with it, I’d rather give up rushing yards to passing yards. Only place I might disagree with you on is that I think pass rusher is a bit more important than corner. I’m not really basing that on anything scientific. Just my opinion. Corner is still up there in importance, but if your pass rush is constantly getting home, it can cover for some issues in the secondary. While the Bills current secondary is the strength of the team and has been awesome this year, even they can’t cover forever. It can be downright painful to watch if we aren’t getting any pressure on a legit QB. They’ll pick apart even the best secondary.
  5. Probably already been posted, but Spotrac has Levi’s market value at 3 years, $17.1MM (AAV of $5.7M). Seems more than fair to me. I’d take that all day for a solid #2 corner. Could save an early draft pick that you could use to support the offense instead. https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/buffalo-bills/levi-wallace-25587/market-value/ Also, didn’t realize he and Tre are the same age. Be nice to have our corners and safeties locked up for the next few years for what is the strength of the defense. Only way I’d be in favor of not resigning Levi would be if the plan is to take the money to use toward getting a legit pass rusher in a trade. Obviously, not getting one of those at $5.7MM, but you could use that money toward one.
  6. Love Zimmer. I think the team misses him greatly this year. Can you do better? Of course. But Zim is the epitome of a “hard hat and lunchbox carrying player”. Except he’s not just a “try hard” guy. He’s an incredible athlete based on his RAS score. He’s the exact type of glue guy depth piece that McD loves. Max effort, all the time. I’d love to have him back on a reworked dline next year.
  7. People have always inexplicably complained about Levi. Maybe it’s because he’s not Tre White? Few are. It’s bonkers. We could do worse. He’s a fine #2 corner.
  8. Who is giving baker 30-40 million?
  9. I’m with you. Only so many of these games left this year. We all hope the Bills go on a huge run to the Super Bowl and win a championship, but eventually we’ll be begging for live games. Even the bad ones.
  10. Agree. We played them on the road, on the big stage, and when they were fully healthy. A slip away from taking it.
  11. Wasn’t it a Jones fracture? Is this guy even going to be effective off that injury?
  12. Awesome! I would love to see this. But even if the Colts lost, something tells me there’s no way that Raiders interim coach will agree to play for a tie. He seems like one of those old school types. Not to mention they are divisional foes who’d (foolishly) love to kill the opposing team’s chance at the playoffs even if that belief ultimately causes them to lose and kill their own chance. Of the two teams, I think Staley would be cool with it, but probably zero chance we’d see a one game truce.
  13. Good question. Obviously, it helps immensely to have Tre in a game like that, but we don’t need a superstar corner to take away those deep balls that Chase gets seemingly every week. It’s a “whole is greater than the sum of its parts secondary”. I’d bet their pass game would look a bit different against us. What worries me about them is that they can also turn around and hand it to Mixon. We have no answer for that. Really talented offense.
  14. Agreed. Chiefs and Bengals are the scariest teams. They can score at will through the pass game. Fortunately, that’s the strength of the Bills D.
  15. Motor or Josh (or both) will be a nominee for Angry Runs this week. Has to be.
  16. McD will never play Bates again now. Lol
  17. I never want to see land Clark again. Something about that guy. He’s a dark cloud over everything.
