I hope Tim Settle doesn't have something bad happen

So night and day watching him vs Bernard. At 45 second mark he over pursues directly into a key block. Common theme in this film. Not somebody who likes contact either. Not in taking on blocks or just delivering the blow. Bites on play action taking himself out of the play. Crazy as this sounds we upgraded MLB with Bernard.

I enjoyed the Lions game a lot. One of the more enjoyable drought era games.

-Josh will throw it to the other team -We need 37 running backs because all of them suck -We only have one WR worth a sh!t but none that will run block -We use two Tight Ends so we can get single TE production -Spencer Brown -The DL is showing some improvement in the 7th year together -Bernard looks like Josh Dobbs with your little brothers facial hair -Jordan Poyer played well in our comeback win against Houston

Accurate analogy. A step further, you can't be a coverage and pursuit LB and not generate turnovers. Edmunds will always be more specimen than football player. He got paid and the Bills seem to be better off. Win for both parties.

I remember posting about Josh and PA after we drafted him. A lot of people questioned his accuracy, timing, and mechanics. You would have a very difficult time finding any tape from Wyoming in which he wasn't in rhythm on PA. If Josh has a sliver he can fit it in. He doesn't have that much guess work on PA. It's usually simplified reads. More often than not he will get some window and he just rips it with no hesitation when it happens.

Beane is a head nod fist pound guy. Keep it at that and you can probably get away with it at church.

Since the Jets game he has been pretty close to perfect.

Tre was not the same last year, but this year, nothing we have seen would indicate he is not shut down. He missed a few tackles on plays he shouldn’t have been the last guy. As far as coverage, I don’t even think I have seen him on the TV outside of his pick against Washington and Wilson’s TD. QB’s are not going near him. Sure, we will overcome it. But does it take away from the tops end this defense would see? Sure. Also reasonable to expect we saw his worst and it was only going to get better. Tre is a leader and fought his tail off it get back. This sucks. I would take a loss and Tre healthy without a thought.

Is Wilson’s catch still the only ball that’s been caught on him all year?

Found this interesting for those who used to enjoy Football Outsiders (the site is dead). Aaron Schatz is now a writer for this site and he brought the popular DVOA ranking system with him. As many of you who follow DVOA know Buffalo is usually ranked very high. We once again come in #1 on the year with the dorsal fins #2. Schatz wrote a nice article on how the 1 vs 2 DVOA matchup is a very unlikely event. https://www.ftnfantasy.com/articles/FTN/105448/history-of-the-dvoa-bowl

I've been pretty vocal about Josh needing to dial back the mistakes, but really starting to turn to the view of "F" it, we live in die with this man being a gunslinger. We just don't have an offense that can dink and dunk. It's not who we are. If Josh plays free (whether that freedom is based on his own mindset or potential restraints he has) our volatility will increase, but our top output will also increase. Just some rando thoughts for the day. Cheerio.

Really solid post. I will add, the performance we had last year in the playoff game will get us beat. It almost got us beat by a 3rd string QB. Josh has had a very solid two weeks. We will need a clean game from him this week.

Significant data supports it. You could even see it in his Wyoming film.

Reggie and Bruce are 1 and 2 in sacks, several seasons ahead of 3rd place and both were household names. Bruce had his own commercials with Nike, his own shoes. Bills were on national TV a lot and Bruce was always talked about. Taylor had more pop appeal but Bruce was too good to have somebody's shadow block him out.

I miss watching Thurman on screen plays.

Great at words and stuff

Everybody has said for years we need our Kuechly. Well, it's been Milano the whole time. Cool seeing this and deserved.

The name Alan Williams didn't help the situation

SD Bills backers was a great time. Awesome meeting you @muppy and big thanks @SDS on the suggestion. Now imagine a cross country home opener next year? 😇

The main one that comes to mind is Ben Johnson

I still think Harris can do some great things for us. He really hasn’t been used much after being hurt in the preseason. Murray can set it up well for Cook. Murray being more of a physical plodder at this point.

This wasn’t exactly the set up Josh had been at risk with historically, but he played even better than to be expected. Great response after a difficult week.

I actually think Allen is a very sensitive person. Probably too much for his own good.
