  1. Just curious, did government decision makers poll Buffalo and Suburban residents as to their preference regarding a dome. This is small market thinking at its best. Deny western NY a new stadium for decades opting in favor of refurbishment, and then go cheap in the most horrific weather location in the country. Did they consider the corporate preferences considering their boxes will represent a good % of revenue. This team, with an elite QB, and great receivers, along with a defense with speed would benefit from perfect conditions. Fans would flock to a state of the art, ultramodern retractable roof stadium. Speaking for myself, coming from LI, I would make a family tradition out of seeing a high leverage Dec game or playoff, an annual.
  2. Motor looked timid and soft for most of the season until Tampa. He was not part of the offense. All I'm saying is that now ,in the elements, with the O-line playing better, we can judge Moss as the run will be featured.
  3. Why is there condemnation of 2nd year rbs, when the O-line was inept. Motor couldn't do anything for most of the season. Dabol didn't call running plays for entire halves of games(Tampa), yet you inexplicably want to play a guy who they cut a week ago and who hasn't played this year, instead of Moss. If you taped the Atlanta game, Moss ran well with the few carries he had. He ran better against Carolina as well. The O-line is playing better with different blocking schemes, and Motor ran wild for 120.
  4. The Bills are ascending at seasons end. They have learned that Josh cannot be expected to be our entire running attack and win games by himself. The O-line is opening holes and Motor and Moss are running with authority. The games they lost (Tampa, Tenn, NE) were winnable, but we lost all of them,which means we weren't good enough. Now our season starts. Remember, the Bucs got it going in Dec. last year and won it all.
  5. The fact that he dressed for 10 doesn't mean he contributed to anything good. He sucked up a roster spot and when we needed him most, he was nowhere. Sympathy for any personal problems aside, we need committed, balls to the wall grinders, if we expect to advance to the SB. Oliver and Harry, play hurt and keep on coming. They will lead us into the playoffs.
  6. Chiefs will be walking into a buzzsaw by playing LA. The Chargers should have beaten them twice and matchup better than any team in the AFC against them. We will end up with Indy.
  7. Agreed, but they should be careful what they wish for. Patriots strength is their dbs and front getting pressure. This could neutralize Joe's vertical attack. Also NE will run against Cincinnati at will.
  8. Sounds like Joe's knee is not a small thing. It makes playing Indy a likelihood. That is a better matchup for us. Stephenson, now playing makes NE much tougher to defend.
  9. That performance was a huge positive for the team. First, Josh will learn from trying to fit throws into tight windows, jeopardizing points in scoring territory. Secondly,it got Dabol to lean on a running game that now will make teams defend and in turn open things up for downfield opportunities as we head into the playoffs. Finally, the defense rose up after the turnovers, and shut down the Falcons without letting them score. Great confidence builder.
  10. The Browns have to move on from Baker, sooner than later. The fan base has turned on him and he has started to feel like a victim. His arm strength and accuracy has come into question. Lamar, should come back next year on the 5th year option and play like he did before he stumbled this season, and get paid. He's their best option going forward.
  11. Raiders, won't beat LA so their probably not coming. The Patriots are dangerous even though we beat them in Foxboro. They will be better with Stephenson and depending on the conditions, we will hopefully be able to lean on a passing attack advantage. Bellicek scares me when he has 2 meetings to look at in preparation. Our best bet, is probably Indy. They won't be able to dominate us on the ground again We will be better offensively.
  12. This tiny returner will be a problem for us, especially in frigid, wet conditions. His aggressive nature,running everything back is a turnover waiting to happen in plus territory for coverage units. Please opt in favor of McKenzie or Hyde for safety.
  13. Josh's first instinct is to throw into tight windows with his incredible arm talent. Tips and deflections cause the high rate of turnovers in these bad weather games, but the good news is that Motor and Moss are running hard and holes are being opened. Now Dabol will scale back on empty set passing dominating the attack. With teams having to play the run, Josh will have more open throws. If we can win the turnover battle, I like our chances especially in decent weather venues.
  14. Quietly the Dolphins are renewing their quest for Watson, because in their biggest game they managed 3pts.
  15. A dome is not a desperate need, but it is the best case scenario for our team, the way it's constructed. The fan base deserves a retractable roof to have open air games unless it's frigid temps with harsh precipitation. Why shouldn't we get one? The difference in cost will be made up by all the revenue generated by all the postseason games held there.
  16. These picks have been instrumental in getting us in position to take our division. Beane excels in late round picks and these players you referenced,are getting better each year. Our future depends on Beane improving the O-line and getting depth at corner and RB
  17. Harry's been great and has given us solid play in Star's absence. Really a great team guy as well.
  18. It's been obvious for the last couple years. Without a consistent run game, other than our franchise QB exposing himself, we are dependent on Josh being clean and and accurate in tough conditions. A tip,a windblown pick and we could lose to a heavy run, less talented team. With perfect conditions, we're top 3 in the leagues
  19. Right,it's the formula for winning playoff games in bad weather, less the interceptions. Motor is running nasty.
  20. When you pass on a HOF talent in favor of a pedestrian QBs(Mayfield ,Darnold) you are on your way to Palookaville.
  21. Thanks for the organizational response. No reason for nastiness young fella. If you sanction the low effort for your team, that's the foundation of mediocrity.
  22. Not much, but that doesn't mean he dresses and sleepwalks through a game where we can clinch a playoff spot. Remember,we fans pay his exorbitant salary. Money that's generational.
  23. Much sympathy for Star and his family. He should not dress if he can't buy in to play winning, fired up football. He has been selfish, unavailable and ineffective leading up to his personal problems. His priorities have not been team and we keep expecting him to snap out of it. Star owes this team and the fans more. We live and die with these well paid athletes. All we ask is to put forth maximum effort. Don't go through the motions Star.
  24. You make some solid points. The reason I like him is because he has to compensate for shortcomings of our D-line in the run game and he has major responsibilities for screens and underneath passes,which demands speed, length and being a thumper. All of which he features. He is not a finished product by any means, but he complements Milano and the last 2 seasons has been a leading tackler on a top 5 defense. Warner, Wagner, White are better but much older.
  25. The post that you referenced about him not be instinctual,just points up his incredible ceiling with his freakish speed,length and physicality. If we let him leave, he will be All-Pro for another team guaranteed.
