    The Bills appear to have gotten over the L

    Loss really reminds me of last year's first game with NE. After the loss where Jones only passed 3X really got Pats fans blabbering. Next 2 against them really told the story. 

     

    Only Mother Nature can slow this team down. Whether it be ungodly wind or sweltering oppressive heat.

     

    All things equal neither Miami or NE can compete with Buffalo, not even close.

    Now that we can stop the run, we only have the heat as our enemy. 

    Would Bills Have Been Better Off with a Punt Instead of a Safety at End of Game?

    If the Miami punter (who had an absolutely outstanding game by the way) had gotten the punt off from his end zone, I'm guessing that the Bills would have had the ball around the Miami 40 - 45 yard line with a little over a minute left, no timeouts and still needing a touchdown.  Would that have been better or worse than the safety?  I think it's probably a coin flip.  If a safety was the smarter play, Miami should have taken a safety on purpose.  Anyone have the analytics?

    ...and miss out on seeing a butt-punt live on TV? No way!

    First impression: James Cook

    He is coming along nicely...he was lining up as a WR in the 4th quarter as the Bills were seriously down to him, Quentin Morris and Reggie Gilliam for their WR packages.

    Meaningful snaps for Cook.  He trending up little by little.  He'll be up and down in use but I looking forward to seeing where he is mid-year.

     

    Also enjoyed the Gilliam catches.  

    Was at the game yesterday. Almost had a heat stroke. It was unsafe for players

    The US Army, at least as far back as 1988, would modify training based on a heat index.  Still, you would see heat exhaustion occasionally - soldiers getting dizzy, losing coordination, even getting listless.  Include headache and nausea as common symptoms.  Even in the days before red card and coddling, the ARMY took heat conditions very seriously.

     

    In my opinion, this was the case yesterday with many of the players right on the edge - motor skills, strength, cognitive, all being challenged.  Allen's throw into the turf on the missed TD likely doesn't happen unless he's totally gassed.  Maybe Davis make the football move and maybe Milano has better focus and intercepts the ball.  Who knows............   I'm rather surprised that the heat management solutions aren't better - even for the visiting team.

    I love how you still take a shot at him when he makes a good play.  "Yeah, he got the sack, but it was unopposed so it's still not that good."  As if other guys on the team don't get sacks "unopposed" and then get called out on it here.  Never once have I seen Milano, Hyde, Poyer, etc get called out when they get to the QB on a blitz because they weren't blocked...isn't that the idea behind a blitz?

    He's good at other things, just surprised they called his number as a Blitzer.

    Having an understanding of how pass rush lanes work would help you understand what and why you are seeing what you're seeing. Go read up on box rules and being a low box vs. high box player.

    Homework assignment accepted.

    Edmunds sack came unopposed with an open lane. I've never seen him do that fighting off a committed blocker. He's not a pass rusher. Lacks necessary hand fighting skills for one.  Suppose it was a clever call to send him because it worked.

     

    As to his hit I'm not impressed or apologetic. Seems the better players impact the play early on rather than finish it late in that manner.  Just my take.
