Then you are simply not watching. I don't think there is a team in the entire league that has a greater differential between points allowed the in the first half and second half.

I agree and think the root cause of the problem is McDermott's limited flexibility.

But how do you sleep in the office? With one eye open, I hope.

Are you sure the mystery has been solved? Ask yourself why she put the filing cabinet there.

I assumed the Steelers beating the Ravens would give them the common opponents edge. I guess that's why they say that about "assume".

If I don't stop crying in the next two minutes, I will hunt you down.

I'd guess that the linchpin is probably the Steelers/Ravens game.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that not saying goodbye isn't her primary beef.

It says our defense is a problem. If they can't hold a zone together any better than that, they will get eaten alive in the playoffs.

So when Stafford was throwing those quick little tunnels that you just said are a blueprint, exactly how long do you think he was holding the ball? Would 0.7 seconds have been more accurate? The Rams were getting the ball out on time for most of the game yesterday and frequently making the pass rush irrelevant. The Bills secondary was constantly confused and totally incapable of handling the route combinations McVay was throwing at them. As fast as the Rams WR's were coming open, you could have had Mario Williams, Kyle Williams, Pat Williams and Leonard Williams out there and it wouldn't have made much difference.

If only we got some pressure when he was releasing the ball in 1.7 seconds...

What does that have to do with whether the Rams provided a blueprint for other teams?

There are multiple parts of the field you don't necessarily have to worry about when dealing with Tua; that is not the case with Stafford's arm.

Thanks, I didn't realize that. Maybe it even matches the drapes now.

I'm scared of their carpet too; that thing is an unforgiving mess.

I swear a couple times he looked like even he was stunned by how effectively they were operating.

He got the snot kicked out of him yesterday. And yeah, I also saw him go off looking like he was having a problem with a with a wrist or lower arm.

All true and you have to give some credit to McVay too. Watching the Bills secondary trying to deal with the route combinations he was throwing at them was sort of embarrassing. He had them spinning on circles all day while his players were executing with serious precision.

If your blueprint relies on a first ballot HOF QB playing one of the very best games of his entire career, then there might not be a whole lot of teams that can use it.

Yet another great thread. Did you get tired of making ones about how Josh Allen is the problem and we should trade him for Caleb WIlliams? Or how we are about to embark on another long playoff drought? Maybe you should just not make any more threads as it only lowers the quality of the board every time you do. You'd probably be a better fit calling into WGR to share some senseless unhinged rants.

He created some quick pressures that forced Stafford to get rid of the ball and his assists were actually tackles, they just happened to be on plays where another guy got there at the same time. He played hard, was more effective than he has been most of the year was not the problem yesterday.

This is simply not true. Oliver had 3 tackles, led the team in QB hits and could be seen several times successfully anchoring against doubles and hustling downfield to run down ballcarriers. Rousseau's only "play" was a single assisted tackle in the 4th qrtr (it was not a tfl) and he could be seen multiple times standing around unengaged, waiting for his teammates to finish plays. Oliver has not been good this year, but he was not the problem yesterday.

Both Oliver and Daquan Jones were fine yesterday; the DT's behind them were not (although I would like to see Quinton Jefferson get some more snaps). Yu want to see a shameful performance? Go watch film of that utterly pathetic effort from Greg Rousseau yesterday, absolutely horrible. The Bills had far bigger problems in their secondary yesterday than they did up front.

He should have spiked it and told Brady to try again.

It didn't tonight. Groot was an absolute dog out there.
