Boo birds out in force against Taylor. He’s missing some easy throws. 2 of 11 at this point.

11 different receivers last game and absolutely no one stands out. Who is going to have the most receiving yards and how much? (Absolutely a copy cat of what will Allens stats be, but interesting as we don’t have a clear cut top receiver) l’m going with a Zay Jones break out game with 134 yards and a TD.

100% agree. We could be talking about Trent Murphy here too. I'm starting to question the Process instead of trusting it.

Yep - can’t pass that up. Ridiculous if we do.

I think a lot of fans were on board with the process but have begun to waiver with good reason. Building a team is an investment. For every player you bring in via draft, FA, or trade, you want to see a positive return on investment. The current regimes track record is less than stellar to date. While I agree that some players could and should develop, the current evaluation of investments does not look so good. Here's just a sampling: Negative return on investment: Star Lotulelei Trent Murphy Corey Coleman Vonte Davis Kelvin Benjamin Zay Jones Tremaine Edmunds others??? Positive Return on Investment: Jordan Poyer Steven Hauschka Micah Hyde others??? Even Money Josh Allen What category would you put the big trades in? Tyrod Taylor Marcel Dareus Sammy Watkins Ronald Darby

And the worst O at this point. Worst part is that we are looking at potentially picking #1 in the draft and it should be QB, but won’t.

This as well as the other posters above claiming the same. WGR alluded to it sometime over the last couple weeks. They mentioned a tweet that Schefter (believe it was Schefter) sent out stating the Coleman did not want to come to Buffalo when we first traded for him. Completely plausible or tin hat theory that someone from the Pats whispered to his agent that they would sign him if Bills released him??? Pretty easy decision to play with Brady. Guess we’ll see how he does.

Steve Tasker was saying this exact thing yesterday on One Bills Live. Give him a limited number of plays. Keep the D on the field while not letting them do anything too exotic in terms of blitzing (at least that's what I remember).

This offensive line (and it truly is) - will he make it through the game? How bad will it be at the Ralph when Peterman straps on his helmet. I shudder to think. 15/26 214yds 53yds rushing 1TD through the air and 1 TD on the ground 1 int 5 sacks

Great post OP. Hats off to those hat have been saying this is a total rebuild - it is.

I’ll accept that to an extent. I based my reaction on just watching the game and expecting a whole lot more from the D. Was it the DE’s that stunk? It seemed like Flacco had TONs of time back there. I figured if Star was eating up all those double teams, then our DE’s would be putting on the heat. From all the comments, seems like Benjamin was the most disappointing. Can’t argue with that. We need/should grab Perriman.....can’t do worse that what we have.

I'm going to have to go with Star. He was supposed clog the middle so our boys could wreak havoc on the QB, esp with the size of his contract. Trent stunk but is coming off injury. Peterman has never been good in the regular season. Only other I could think of is Benjamin, esp with his mouth in the preseason. (no fair pointing to McDermott and Beane because they don't count ...even thought they get D grades at this point).

Who would have thought Pi’s prediction would have been optimistic. Put down the rose colored glasses Pi!

Allen played well. This is the only thing that would motivate me to get to the opener - to support Allen. That and tailgate!

Honor roll of players we hoped would show up and didn’t: Peterman Jones Benjamin Clay Murphy Star does Davis even count???

I second that. What the heck game are you watching? Allen is looking good. Good pocket awareness and slinging the ball.

Do they put Allen in for mop up in 4th if we’re getting crushed?

Good thing we shored up the middle of our defense.

Go with it. Very millennial, just like skinny jeans

I wonder what it would take for them to pull Nate from the game and I wonder what it would take for them to start Allen next game (barring injury of course). I think those are two different bars. Hoping we will never know! Come on Nate!! 18-23 230yds 1TD in the air and another on the ground, 3 sacks, 1 fumble, no INT’s.

I agree, it may not fit him. Maybe it’s from all the talk we hear that after the 5 pick game, a common man would have broke down, sent out a text that he’s retiring, thrown barbells at a fellow gym member, etc, but no, Peterman dug down deep and won the starting job. He didn’t get too low on himself. Who knows what Beane is thinking. Maybe he just likes the way it rhymes.

Winner, Winner! Exactly the type of personality you want want in a hockey goaltender, baseball pitcher, and of course - your QB. The teams feeds off those positions. Opposite example - Cam Newton & Jay Cutler. Steady Eddie is a compliment in this case.

This article has been posted before, but probably worth digging up again in regards to arm strength. It’s not impossible to improve arm strength. There is hope for Nate and the dude works his tail off. Odds are against him, but who knows??? Fill in in the blank and read the article. “I was at a Purdue practice during ______________ final year and he struggled to complete a 12-yard out in windy conditions http://www.profootballweekly.com/2017/03/13/greg-gabriel-is-a-quarterbacks-velocity-an-indicator-of-how-good-he-will-be-in-the-nfl/a93ef5p/

7th rounder isn’t worth a whole lot as many have said previously. The money may be more of a concern, but not that much, especially with how much we have next year.

First article read from the Atlantic (free trial), and it was good. Waaay batter than the BFN articles bashing Bills. Great open ended questions which resulted in insightful answers. It seems the Bills brass have embraced The Atlantic, though others may be able to offer more meaningful insight into this opinion.
