11 - I didnt yell at the TV not one time.

I felt and said, there are a lot of ifs.... including all of the things that you mentioned in the post... so far the vast majority of the ifs are on the positive side, some even better than I really expected. But, we have 3 games in, its a long season... we will certainly see teams adjust to the offense and we will need to be able to adjust right back. So I am in the so far so great category... lets see how the next 6 weeks play out, especially if we start getting some injured folks back.

Love this.... agree with most of it. My top 4 things where I woulda said ......."you're kidding me" If anyone had told me the Steelers and Vikings would have the #1 and #2 Defense (points)..... (that 2nd round pick isn't looking like such a gem right now) 100% If anyone had told me the Bills lost Milano, Taron Johnson, and Bernard, and were 3-0 with the #7 defense..... (hate to say that doesnt totally shock me) If anyone had told me Von Miller and Greg Rousseau both have 3 sacks..... (I am like you happily stunned) If anyone had told me the Bills have a middle-of-the-pack passing offense (#14) but our offense is leading the league in points.... agreed What are your top 4 "I didn't see this coming" "You're kidding me" NFL happenings so far this season? Mine would be Cinci 0-3 Vons comeback Our ability to score TDs and spread the ball around - I always felt that we would be overall more balanced run/pass and get the ball to the open guy, but to the extent we have with the success we have is a great surprise Jacksonville 0-3 combined with how bad Lawrence has looked.

That one game.... that one little game where you go to the playoffs and end your year with a win... means so much in conversations like this... should it... I dont know it takes a village to win one... but geez... it is the mission of a QB to lead his team to a SB victory.... so there is that... anyways, I am with you ... maybe Josh is better now statistically or more valuable a player to his team etc... but I think somehow until he wins one it will be debated on end... and there will always be that argument

Horrible news.

Just keep knocking down the wins... especially this early brutal schedule... I always felt if we came out of the 1st 6 games at 4-2 that was a pretty good win... and 5-1 was just excellent. Gotta figure a way to beat either the Ravens or Texans and Jets is a must win to me would love to build a lead on these guys.

Jersey Bills... gonna call you nostraJersey if this continues LOL... Not sure that the overall talent level is that much better, certainly seems like it improved, but boy does the sum of the parts look much better...

I never noticed anything with Poyer... I was to busy jumping up and down lol.... did something happen or did he just walk off the field.

Reminds me of Marquise Goodwin in this regard....

absolutely did !

I was a kid when he played and he was definately an electric player... however, he needed to win one ....

Only if they do so to resist the urge to bring back Josh Norman.

LOL

We have got to find a way to beat these guys... we just do... this game makes me nervous... (well all of them do LOL) anyways... Bills 17 Jags 13 lets hope this doesnt come down to a Bass kick.

I remember the replay commentary when they showed it on the highlights they said something like the officials saying to Madden, yeah you won get your fat butt off the field lol.

Fair but I am just not even seeing him out there... but maybe Jmarcus Ingram is very good too... I hope that is the issue.

Totally agree... and look not an AI or a stats freak not gonna lie... but I think they are useful for sure... I am just in the to soon camp.

Agreed especially the wiry and non sound tackler... just the opposite of what McD looks for... I didnt really understand the pick then. I do wonder if its less the coverage and more the tackling that keeps him on the bench... I just dont know... but it seems like an odd marriage. We did need a CB at the time... and they took their shot. But I think you are right, probably not the guy they wanted. also, that Taron Johnson nickle slot, you need to come up and make a tackle and he just doesnt do it.

SO true... we have got to find a way to beat these guys at some point. they have been a thorn in our sides... Monday night at home... tough schedule.. gotta find a way to beat them.

I completely get how we want to analyze and use metrics for understanding and to get a feel of how we drafted ... if we were right... that KC didnt bamboozle us... I get it... But I am just in the looked good week 1... got nothing week 2... long season... rookie figuring this out... lets see... I dont think we have any idea what this turns out to be... quite honestly I havent even seen him used in the capacity i really felt like they got him for which was a big presence in the end zone to get 50/50 balls and corner routes... he turns into that separation wont mean anything... no one really gets separation deep in the red zone... you just get open or you jump higher than the other guy.

I hate this for Tre, but I think you are right we moved probably when we needed to... those injuries he had suck to come back from especially when speed, burst and agility are your living. Makes you wonder what is up with Elam... cant think its coaching....

Dave Casper ( just mentioned him in another post and thought he would be perfect for here)

He gonna get mad and go to Dallas... and then who knows... but I think we havent seen the end of this act.

Nice to see this for him... gonna need him to stay a weapon.

Dave Casper!
