Josh was tense from the get go and slightly off all game. Some play calls were... suspect. Dawkins had one holding call last season and 3 on Sunday - he should get better soon. White's INT that was cancelled by a dubious call was quite the game changer. Blocked punts are a rarity. ALL things that should rarely happen from now on so in that regards, things look pretty good! Plus the Steelers are a very good team, seems people forget that part. But the lack of pressure by the DL while facing a revamped OL with 2 rookies... that doesn't bode well. Except from one juicy fun spurt, the still absent running game. Not cute plays needed for 3rd/4th and ones if the OL can push the pile...

DBs played well enough. Some of you guys expect perfection? The DL, except Oliver, was MIA though. Steelers are a very good team.... but not on OL unless these rookies are gems we didn't know about. Speaking of DBs, I still think White's INT should NOT have been reversed by a ghost penalty. A huge game changer right there.

Add the lack of screens, and even more head scratching, rollouts! Josh is one of the best QBs throwing on the run, and against a very good DL passrush, it slows it down. Yet overall, many good calls, as WRs had drops, Josh had lots of missed throws or threw a tad too late which allowed the Steelers pass D to come back to break the passes. So overall, the gameplan was good enough to beat a team that was 12-4 last year. So I'll calm down and so should most of you ha ha. But the lack of pass rush and these omissions on offense are kind of weird.

Beasley had 967 yards last year in 15 games and countless 3rd down catches. Diggs was #1 across the board. Find something else to complain about. Our WRs? Really? Today they were covered more than I can recall though Josh was sometimes a tad late throwing to them so the openings they had got closed. Bills D had a stellar 1st half numbers wise, and only let 16 points overall. But damn, still no pressure on the QB. It's crazy. Rousseau and Epanesa were MIA. And so was Hughes. Against a rookie remade OL to booth. Josh was tense all game, even before his first snap. WTH was that about. He plays best when he has FUN. Playing at home before a full crowd stressed him out instead of making him enjoy the moment. And Josh is awesome when throwing on the run. Even more head scratching that they don't do it!

The loss is NOT on Prescott. But while I did think he was pretty good, I also really thought how I'm glad the Bills have Josh! He's better, period. I guess my point is that Dak is very good, but the media go overboard in praising him. Weird. He is what I feared Josh could be: very good but not elite. Thankfully, we know how it turned out yesssssss I agree! Their DL is awesome and put pressure all night long. LBs seem very good too. Yet the secondary got burned time and time again.

KC lost some quality starters on the OL. Salary cap casualties, as it happens in a winning team.

It's quite likely the offense will be even scarier this year, given all the continuity down from the OC to the OL! New kids could light up the DL and make everyone else on defense better. Scary team. But as usual, injuries can derail the best plans. Thankfully. it seems the the Bills also have depth. Even though Trubinski is the best 2M backup QB, Josh is THE key.

I kind just imagine the paychecks for those 16 seasons. And barely any injuries, not even banged up. Oh I'd rather be a starter and get some glory, but still, hard to feel sorry for the guy. And for Tyrod for that matter as dude had made some real money!

Tyrod had his moments here, but yeah, it was hard to like the guy as it seemed he had more talent than he used. Not because of work ethics issue, but he was sooooo into the "managing QB" mindset it was his own self-imposed ceiling. Like a super conservative boring coach. Still, he's a good (not great!) QB but wow at him starting over Watson. Let's TRULY enjoy the current Bills ride as there are so many examples of teams imploding it's scary!

Dude is amazing, but JJ Watt was on pace too to win all Defensive Player of the Year all the time. Injuries happened... then Donald busted on the scene. TIME will determined how he ranks compared to the greats of the past. And while no doubt he's the #1 defensive player of the league as of now, I still feel TJ Watt should have won the award last year based on all the stats. Just like when Paup earned it, Bruce was still the man, but Bryce has an amazing year.

His stats at times have been superb too. I just don't get how he can be a #3 QB! (I suppose Fields will be #2)

As mentioned already many times, the Bills are in all out Superbowl contention THIS YEAR. No way you trade MT! Josh plays physical with all the risks that come with it, there's always the Covid threat of 2 week of no show, and so on. Unless a trade offer is super juicy, why trade a superb backup QB only paid 2M a year? While he's no Josh, and certainly not the big arm threat, he is mobile in a way you barely adjust the playbook. Keep the man!

That tip toe catch on the sidelines was pretty high level stuff. But it's that he plays special teams that will make him a lock. Unless they can trade him to GB ha ha

Oh I know he did ha ha. But then it all stopped. No mass beatings or stomping or 5 on ones or anything like that. Dude made a bad choice... prior, in picking his gal ha ha. A girl that starts fights that you know YOU will have to finish is bad news, no matter how you slice it.

Beane is THE man Most of the Bills playing that 2nd game will be regulars even if not starters. The future looks BRIGHT. What a roster! It's always tough, logically and certainly emotionally to make cuts, but wow, this year is gonna be even harder!

It was pretty mild and ended quickly enough. Just boys... and gals having '"fun". Yeah we don't have the details but it looks to me blond gal started it, or sure escalated it

He's in McD's doghouse for sure. Or maybe it's the Pegulas? As the rumor goes that if he doesn't play a preseason snap, his signing bonus is cut in half.

IDK who he is TBH, but the dude(s) finding ways to rehab injured legs faster will deserve the big big bucks.

IDK why I want both Nate and Tebow to do well but I do ha ha. I'm glad Nate at least is getting paid NFL bucks (which are HUGE compared top anything else he'd be be getting doing something else) to be backup. I know I'd do it!

Has the NFLPA consulted with the players first before agreeing to all this? Did the players vote on this? As for the coaches, probably no one is "on their side" but their own lawyers might have a say in this

Moot point. TEAM sport. Daboll's gameplan, the OLine, other WRs, and on and on. May they continue to rack up numbers together, Lamar will probably never play with a great WR unless HE changes team or they draft one. What top WR would like to go to a run heavy team with such a QB and OC? But as a TE I'd kill to play there ha ha

Well, I'm not a college football expert, not even close. All I recall was Josh Allen was of the 4 QBs mentioned everywhere that would go early, along with Baker, Darnold and Rosen. So I was ecstatic the Bills traded to be able to pick him - obviously 2 of the 4 were already gone. I loved his demeanor and attitude as soon as I saw him on stage. It's only on here after that I kept reading the bad comments. So I can't say "I told you so" ha ha, but I wasn't one bashing him and Beane either. I mean, since he WAS picked, why not root for him all the way? I just don't get some fans... My worry was not all that he'd be a bust, but that he'd be "just" good or very good, but not great and elite. He's already exceeded expectations and I'm sure that barring injury he'll be even better this year. Awesome combination of physical skills, work ethic, drive, leadership and that ever elusive "it" factor.

Only missing some of his great runs but wow. Those are true highlights. He's sooooo good. "Must see TV" as Esiason once called Josh.

As a TE or OL, I'd love to play with Lamar. As a wideout? Hell no. You think these guys like to run all day with little passes thrown at them, and be run blockers so often when Jackson goes downhill? Many WR that are #3 on other teams will always be interested though. Ravens will likely never get top WRs interested, but their offense is still potent. Again, OL and TE have fun for sure ha ha.

The combo of Incognito and Shady was MONEY for the Bills. I don't play "what if" games often but imagine these 2 at their peak playing with Josh and the current offense! Shady seemed to be a great teammate as well. On the field he was fun to watch. The Bills during the drought have had amazing RBs! Amost weird.
