There's a plan; it just has no diversity. The guy gets stuck in ruts and can't get off stuff sometimes and defenders can smell it.

They're mostly controlling the game but the self-inflicted mistakes are affecting the scoreboard.

That could be, but it was too messy to tell live

That is the ONE thing you cannot do tonight.

Easy there, killer. I just thought it was an interesting observation.

Tyrod Taylor was never a great runner and he is now 34 years old

There are no gimmies in the NFL

Then all they accomplish is running off 10-15 seconds off the clock and taking a couple timeouts out of the equation. They didn't "get away" with anything. It wasn't the kind of situation that was going to have any significant effect on the game. The fact that he kept repeatedly ranting about it was sort of embarrassing, imo.

He was not right. The Eagles would have still got the ball back with about a minute left but then only needing a FG, not a TD.

That guy is apparently dumber than a chicken. Somebody should have tackled him and put tape over his mouth.

They might not be on their way to the Super Bowl, but nobody looks forward to playing that D.

The Bills have yet to play a game against a team that is currently below .500, although that will change tonight. I wonder if any other team in the NFL can say that?

fwiw, I just checked some local forecasts across the country this week on the NWS site and it looks like you'll be riding in clear weather the entire way across. National Weather Service I've run that route numerous times and that haul is probably only about 30ish hrs. You play your cards right and you could be there late Wed night; that would buy you a couple extra days in Vegas.

I can't speak to it's accuracy but here's a graph built from the PFF data that somebody posted a week ago.

It probably isn't actually 50. But I wouldn't be surprised if it's hovering somewhere above 40.

The Amazon/streaming nonsense is getting increasingly annoying. Can't effectively watch both the Sabres opener and the Chiefs/Broncs in a national game when I have to monkey around with feeds every time I want to switch channels.

Yeah, a few unnecessary mistakes that went the other way. Probably a little too geeked early in the opener. Like the NFL, Week 1 is a liar.

Patience between the blue lines, boys.

I think he wants their roles to be interchangeable so defenses can't key on particular sets.

Probably my second favorite team over the last few years. They do it the way it's supposed to be done.

I think when they were building in the offseason they may have counted on Spencer Brown being able to do more than he is capable of. Then when the bullets started flying, they found themselves with little choice but to play things they way that they are now.

Bingo. That is absolutely a significant factor in this, imo. The problem with that is that you sort of have to leave Spencer Brown on an island during a play that has a long-developing route combo. It seems that the Bills coaches have become very averse to doing this, probably for good reason.
