You took a mighty hard loss here tonight. A better man admits it and moves on. Sigh. McDermott disagrees with you. He’s an NFL coach ya know…

Do you care what the Chiefs Special Teams coordinator says? Considering, ya know, it’s HIS special teams. Because he said they planned to advance it, likely taking 4 seconds off the clock. We are not talking about the rule. Of course a team *can* do that. But the Chiefs would not have done that. They would have advanced it. Burning clock. Which is why McDermott squib kicked it the next opportunity he had.

Sorry but appeal-to-authority fallacies don’t work with me. There is no proof that the Chiefs would have fell on it. None. Zero. Zip. Nada. The only evidence we have is: 1) When given the opportunity, the Chiefs did NOT fall on it. They ran with it. 2) The Bills fired/let Farwell leave for a lateral position. 3) The next opportunity they had, the Bills squib kicked it. All evidence points to my being correct. Despite your incredible acumen as high-school or community college football coach.

You can pretend that you know it to be true. But you don’t actually know that. You’re guessing. To act as if their design to win changes because the game is in October vs January requires some proof.

In the rematch… 16 seconds left on the clock… Bills squib kicked it. Took 4 seconds off the clock.

The NFL found a way to make it work for Jacksonville. They could find a way to make it work for Buffalo too - if they wanted to. Will they? No. Especially not without a downtown stadium.

A better comparison may be Jacksonville. They hosted a Super Bowl and is very comparable to Buffalo in size. Jacksonville even had to bring in cruise ships to add more hotel rooms.

Saying that is acceptable. But saying the Bills gave up more points in those games, on average, is not acceptable?

And there are not multiple variables in your 4-0 comment? You’re flailing.

You noted that the team was 4-0 with Dodson, indicating that you believe his performance contributed to that record. Then why I posted the stats from those wins, suddenly the MLB is not part of the defensive performance? Uhm…

You’re making a great point for why Klein should start.

In your opinion it is a bad opinion. Do you see the problem? It’s a circular argument.

But some perspective. Our defense averages 16.7 ppg last season when Dodson did not start. Dodson started against Goff and gave up 25. Dodson started against Brissett and gave up 23. The only game our defense (with Dodson) didn’t do worse than our average was against Pittsburgh with them starting their rookie QB for the first time ever.

Agreed. We better hope our DL is strong enough to not allow many runners to reach the second level.

“My opinion is that your opinion is a bad opinion”. Oofta.

Yep. Same here. The excuse I have received is that mods are tired of having to get notified that a post of mine was “reported”. 1) Who in their right mind is so insecure that they are reporting people who have a different opinion than them, on the internet!? 2) All you need is enough people not liking your opinion (and therefore clicking the ‘report’ button), to get a mod annoyed enough to warn a poster. If I was the mod, I would be warning the poster who consistently keeps hitting the report button for non-TOS issues. When you can essentially silence people with opposing viewpoints by clicking a button. That’s a very broken system.

Amen

Funny how that works, isn’t it? Quite the double standard at times. If you’re in agreement with the Bills decision making (on any topic), you’re a great poster. If you disagree, you’re an idiot. Two posters can debate for several pages. The poster that defends the Bills is just posting. The poster deemed “negative” will be considered crusading. It’s not your fault for thinking that. The way PSE has handled parts of the stadium process has been bungled from a PR standpoint. We *still* don’t have detailed renderings or a fly through video, yet stadiums that were approved several months after ours have already released these. We sure like to do things differently here. And the way PSE flies through executive management, it’s a wonder what is going on inside.

I know you’ll say you don’t care what other fans think, but it’s not just me who feels this way:

Has there been a training camp that he didn’t look great? The problem is that his hands turn to butter when the regular season starts. 2020 2021 2022

Kincaid is the real deal. His awareness level is top-notch and his hands are magnets. He also shows great balance, which is something you see with great Tight Ends like Kelce. I place his chance-of-bust percentage at approximately 1%.

8 weeks after being traded to the team is fairly "instant". He was traded on August 29th and was playing by October 27th. That's only 59 days. In the NFL, that's about as instant as it gets. It's going to take several weeks just to learn a whole new playbook.

"When you're not in full pads, technique, fundamentals, eye discipline, knowing what your body is supposed to do, how you're breathing out there, that all matters" - NFL Coach Jonathan Gannon “... when you finally do get the opportunity to put the pads on and practice, you’ve already worked through technique multiple times beforehand so that you’re ready to go once the pads go on.” - NFL linemen Ben Bredeson "Communication and assignment is a huge thing for us with no pads, obviously in the technique. You go out there every day and you try to focus on the technique." - Offensive coordinator Mick Lombardi

Ubered. Kincaid's hands are like magnets. The anti-Gabe Davis.

Just left camp. Allen was under constant pressure - without pads. Which worries me, since without pads, it's more about technique. And the d-line's technique was blowing away the o-lines. I sure hope it was a one day anomaly because if not, we are in for a long season. I was also able to see first hand why so many people are concerned about the backup QB position. If Allen ever goes down, we are ****ed. And i'm not talking about a full season - even if we need them for only a game or two - bad news.
