not much of a pass rush again from the Dline...  

 

I have no idea what game you are watching today

You're going to get flamed for criticizing Allen at all especially by some people 

 

And they're going to take everything you said out of context also

 

Remember you could never be right and the other person always will be

 

 

Enough

Looks like we are playing JoPo early downs then subbing in Hancock in pass situations.

 

They've been doing it since the very first possession.

Poyer looks awful; Hancock is going to end up taking over

It’s not reactionary.  I watch all 22 tons.  WRs have struggled for years- so I disagree and feel it’s very pertinent 

 

Then take it somewhere else beside the game thread; you've already been the worst crusader in this forum for the last several weeks and you're not wrecking this thread too.

Discussion over.

Um...pretty sure we can make some assumptions about their getting open or not...

 

You can make all the baseless assumptions you want.

But if you're crusading makes this a worse place for everybody, you'll be shown the door.

We sure this wasn’t good?

 

 

I've got to trust teh guy standing directly beneath the upright.

Just now, Pete said:

When you see our WR struggling so badly, isn’t that pertinent to discuss?

 

You have no idea whats happening downfield during th game so no it's NOT pertinent

FAIR WARNING:

 

If you want to talk about the game in the game thread, have fun.

But I've already started tossing people who won't stop crusading about the GM in the game thread.

Guys need to start getting benched for crap like what Samuel just did. We are an extremely low margin for error offense because we have zero downfield passing. Can't live with mistakes like that.

 

That's the first time I've just yelled at my TV all year.

We are kicking our own butt with play calls. Ride or die with cook. 

 

I disagree.

They've done their homework and have an excellent game plan.

But mental errors are just murdering drives.

Now put your damned phone away and enjoy the game.

It just looks so hard for us on offense

 

Yeah, 0 punts so far is a real problem

Moore just sucks. It's embarrassing he is still on the team

 

He's a black hole

[10/26/25 GAMEDAY Bills at Panthers 1st Half game thread]

Enough with the pointless generic bitching about coaching during a game.

I'm going to start tossing people.

Hancock made a great tackle. Huge play.

 

They've been subbing him in for Poyer on 3rd downs.

He's going to be playing every down before this is over.

[10/26/25 GAMEDAY Bills at Panthers 1st Half game thread]

Subbing Hancock in on 3rd downs just saved a TD.

Poyer looks awful; I'll be surprised if he finishes this game.

Just now, Sojourner said:

Think he was talking about the Ray Davis throw. 

 

The initial play was blown up, possibly on a Kincaid mistake.

It then became a scramble drill and he went through 4-5 players before he had to dump it off.

Poyer, but  they subbed in Hancock on 3rd down

Poyer forgot how to put his mouthpiece in

Apparently then, no defensive snaps.

 

 

I swear I thought I saw him out there with the D briefly, but I'm not confident enough to say for sure. 🤷‍♂️

Anyone know if Hancock is starting? I assume not.

 

Poyer was reportedly lining up with the ones in warmups

Has Hancock been active this season before today? 

 

Yes, he's had some ST snaps recently and I "may" have seen him on with the D for a few snaps as well.
