I would suggest it means that Americans are a very generous lot and love to provide regular donations to unsubsidized gambling entities by blindly betting on events in which they have no control over the outcome.

I think Diggs hurt his hip during the Miami game but has been gutting it out and the Bills are keeping it under wraps.

You're in luck. He's recently posted multiple items around the board warning of the impending Bills collapse and the dangers of the AFC East next year.

Apologies to those who find graphs like these just too complicated.

I thought they also got their asses kicked in the second Miami game, but were lucky to hang around long enough to steal one late.

But now you're just trusting my subjective opinion instead of being able to examine the meteorological details for yourself. And anybody that trusts me is an idiot.

I've seen that and have a really hard time reconciling it with what we're actually seeing live on Sundays. I think Allen has such a great pocket presence that he sees pressures and avoids them before they actually become pressures, resulting in a very deceptive (and subjective) number that places the Bills around 10th in the league. If you look at the number of times Allen has been forced to scramble on pass plays, the Bills are suddenly 3rd worst in the NFL, with #4 being significantly far behind them.

It might rain a little bit, but if so it will be very light and anything heavier will probably not show up until well after the game.

Yeah, that's why I put quotation marks around it. Just because it might not be the most optimal way to go about it doesn't necessarily make it a full blown "criticism". As for the original question, I think this awful OLine and its frequently blown up passpro has him throwing off platform at odd angles so often that it probably really affects his accuracy and the YAC potential.

All of these same problems with his questionable feet and his poor work against athletics ends were there all throughout last year as well and have nothing to do with his back surgery.

This is about the 3rd/4th thread that has been started about this and it is already posted in multiple other places all over the board so I'm going to just close this one up on game day.

I think this was a fair "criticism" a year or two ago, but imo since then he's gotten much better at recognizing coverages, throwing with anticipation and putting the ball in spots before his receivers are all the way out of their breaks.

That may well be the case, but yesterday they were playing in Vegas

It's NWS so it doesn't generally get more accurate. Less than a tenth of an inch of rain predicted through game time, no post frontal winds til early morning; I'd bet anything heavy won't be coming through til several hours after the game is over.

It's loaded with accurate info and couldn't possibly be any simpler

Dark!

Why is that an important piece of knowledge; exactly how would it have changed anything about how he did his job this week? He's spending hours working with players and coaches, studying opponents, installing game plans, etc. not watching TV or dicking around with online media to check out potential playoff scenarios. His only job is to win on Sundays, whether he's 12-3 or 3-12. Nothing else matters. Hell, maybe he even knows where they're at and is trying to make a point to his team about staying focused on what you can control and ignoring what you can't. 🤷‍♂️ Whatever the case, ragging on him for being focused on preparing his team to the exclusion of all else is ragging on him for doing his job.

He's played 5 games. Do you really think professional D coordinators need 5 whole games of tape to find a guys' weaknesses? That dude instantly made the 49ers an infinitely more dangerous team the second he stepped on the field and he's doing it in a way that is sustainable. I'm sure his numbers will drop in the postseason simply by virtue of them playing better competition every week, but you can bet he's not going to go full turtle the way Garoppolo inevitably would have. They'll be in every game they play and Purdy's brains and balls will be a big reason why.

I hope a win tomorrow night helps us avoid Augie's in-laws in the playoffs...

I thought both teams were getting away with egregious amounts of holding up front all night long.

There's no real reason for him to pay attention to that stuff, and that knowledge wouldn't have changed anything regarding how he coached his team this week. I think it's kind of admirable that he's focused on nothing but getting his guys ready to win on Sunday and the hell with everything else.

Probably brought out a couple TVs and a sectional so they could sit around and talk about it for a while
