Buffalo Junction

My money’s on gene therapy and biohacking.

IDK. Trading assburn for heartburn might be an upgrade.

In general I agree with this. However, the Bills are very dependent upon the regional fan base traveling. Fans from Rochester or Ontario really aren’t going to care if it’s in a pretty downtown location if it makes driving and parking an expensive hassle. Proper highway access and onsite amenities are extremely important, and for many (myself included) the tailgating adds to the full day event experience.

Oh, it definitely worked.... until Lynn got another promotion. It’s actually one of the reasons why I’m curious/skeptical about what’s going on in Baltimore though.

I could see it if it was a 5th or later pick for a former top player on a bloated contract. Im sure there’s a point where Beane would gamble a bit if the possible return outweighs the risk. It’s highly unlikely, but there is sometimes a voodoo trade that works out (randy moss).

Time to wait and see if Whisenhunt’s replacement becomes the Chargers interim coach. ?

Lynn pulling a page from the Rex playbook.

Have you seen the back of that Delorean? At most he’d only be able to squeeze in Bruce and Beebe.... perhaps Bruce and Lofton if he’s lucky.

I’m not sure that they are immediately fixable. The boneheaded penalties can be fixed, but the others often result from physical mismatches or technique issues that need prolonged attention to resolve (poor kickstep).

Daboll needs to steal that play and use Singletary in the slot against 0 coverage.

IF he hadn’t gotten injured against NE, and he had managed to lead a comeback win.... Then this team being 6-0 with comeback victories would be a national narrative.

Watch it be the unheralded Kyle Allen. ?‍♂️

From that one article last year it certainly seemed like he was all about austerity.

What could go wrong?

Regardless of outcome this game is a good test for our offensive line. That eagles D has been bad and injury plagued, but their front four is still top notch. The eagles oline has some talent as well. I want to see how this Bills team performs in the trenches, especially after that Miami game. Winning the LoS on both sides of the ball will make a statement that this Bills team can win late season games.

I think part of the issue with identifying intangibles is that many of these QBs are in winning programs and surrounded by superior talent. It’s relatively easy to identify a target when you have 1-2 reads and each involves a future NFL WR facing a CB that isn’t getting into the league. Alabama aside, most teams only have a few players a year that will get a legit NFL shot. Couple that with schemes and it becomes difficult to judge. As much as we can say Tua is going to be the #1 QB, we cannot say with certainty that he will be the best NFL QB from his draft.

For sure. It’s one of the reasons why Baltimore’s offense and Jackson’s development are intriguing to me. We likely won’t know for another 2-3 years. Of course, the inverse also applies... have defenses had the right type of talent to effectively scheme against Jackson and Roman yet? Lynn certainly figured the scheme out last year and ran that 3 safety nickel in the playoffs with a DB spy on Jackson. Gonna be fun to see what NE does. That offense gets to face the current top three defenses down the stretch... which is a pretty good barometer.

Exception being prime years HOF level QBs. No way a GM isn’t drawn and quartered in the street by fans without getting at least six 1st round picks, and even then he’s gonna have to check for car bombs.

Nah. Just tie him to the goal post and have Allen nail him with a fastball from goal line once for every drop on Sunday.

Eagles fans always seem to one up previous shenanigans. After one ate horse poo my suggestion seemed like a logical “progression”. ?‍♂️

Free rushers don’t count?

Nope. They’ll throw D batteries and give analingus to a horse to enhance the theatrical jeering.

I feel like McD ended up with the perfect situation to let things evolve naturally. Rex disaster, cap dump, break the drought with deficient talent, QB injuries, start the rawest rookie the league has seen. Now they’re 5-1 on the backs of a great defense and young QB who will drive you crazy for 3 then show up with a box of chocolates in the 4th. They grabbed the right QB for this city. This fan base would be eating Mayfield or Rosen alive due to their pre-draft cockiness.

Rodgers was a unicorn. I can’t recall another time when a team with a HOF QB had a possible #1 overall QB slide into the 20’s and become available. Barring a horrible bowl game injury to a highly touted draft prospect it’s unlikely to ever happen again. This team seems to be walking the fine line with Allen; giving him everything he can handle slowly expanding the playbook and schemes week to week. I keep thinking about Daboll mentioning how the Pats offense works. How they don’t run many new schemes late in the year, but rather recycle things that have worked previously. We’ll see how this develops (pun intended) over time. Jackson is interesting as well. The Ravens seem to be all in on fully exploiting his running talents while slowly increasing the passing scheme complexity. It appears that their approach is to let Jackson ball out on the run to stress defenses early in his career while gaining experience and recognition with the hope that he ultimately develops into a solid pocket passer before the rookie contract is up. My big question there is “will the league figure out Roman’s system again?” His passing schemes aren’t anywhere near his running schemes and every QB he’s coached seems to peak in year 2 or 3: Kaep, Taylor....

Lacking in rhythm.
