  1. Understanding the psychology of the kind of person who would start a new thread about this is a national imperative.
  2. I think so too. Brady's jersey is getting dirty this season, finally.
  3. The only thing that matters is what Terry thinks the plan was/is.
  4. I asked a question about the numbers, I didnt posit them. Is Watkins getting open or not? Can you answer that?
  5. You've been yelling the word "crap" at posters for a few days now - you seem to have a personality disorder of some kind, and it expresses itself in your posts. Anyhow I ask again: is Sammy Watkins getting open, or not?
  6. Google
  7. What is the average air distance traveled? And is Sammy getting open or not? I'll hang up and listen.
  8. Correct. And for those talking about the PI call - if Atlanta had just run up the gut on 4th and 1 against our 10 man defense, we could very well be 2-3 right now and all hell would be breaking loose in and around OBD. McBeane has proven nothing. They've simplified the defense and replaced Corey Graham's corpse with two good safeties. In the meantime they've alienated just about every talented player on the roster, and have taken a top-10 offense and replaced it with something from before the Era of the Forward Pass.
  9. He is getting open. I dont hear any of you saying otherwise, nor could you, because he is. So whats the problem? Either hes running the wrong routes (but still getting open) or the passing game is being designed to exploit other matchups. Which is it? I suspect that McVay is installing his offense carefully and getting Goff used to short and intermediate reads and routes first. Once Goff gets comfortable with those higher-percentage passes and gains confidence, youll see them utilize the deeper routes that Sammy runs. I expect him to go on a tear beginning this month or early November. The only thing that will hold him back is injury.
  10. They should buy a time machine and pay $1M more for Mike Gillislee. What this means is that theyll be drafting a RB high next year. Id bet money on it.
  11. Again - if they're NOT trying to lose on purpose, I'm even more concerned.
  12. Take a deep breath and pace a few steps. He said it was a rumor. You're being very un-Dude-like.
  13. Calm down dude. Seriously.

  15. The Bills at some point need to have more of a player development strategy than "find low-priced choir boys and coach 'em up." Talent/matchups win games in the NFL. They cannot keep jettisoning good young players because they're not the right "fit." This is madness. They've decided that Dawkins is now the answer at LT? Based on what? He has been totally uneven. He got beat badly a few times last week. And if they trade Dareus and Kyle retires after this year, what then? It's fine to stockpile draft picks but at some point they need to start accumulating good players...
  16. Its a stat that you can bet isnt lost on the coaching staff.
  17. Surprised no one has said... BUMP
  18. He will be back in time for the play... nevermind.
  19. If they land Baker Mayfield, all is forgiven.
  20. You are a drain on society.
  21. On a micro level, what I saw today was this: the Bengals lost a bunch of their secondary to injuries during the second quarter and the Bills tried to capitalize by running 4- and 5-WR sets. They actually moved the ball fairly well during this point of the game, but then abandoned it once some of the injured Bengals came back in during the second half. On a macro level, two things: (i) part of the "process" this year - like it or not - is figuring out whether Tyrod can become a complete QB, which he has never been asked to do. They are giving him the chance to stay in the pocket and sustain drives. Last week he mostly succeeded; this week he flopped. It's not going to be linear. I wasn't a fan of throwing away ANOTHER season just so that McBean can evaluate its roster, but Terry let them do it, I guess, so that's where we are - this is the process. We'll know in a month or two what we've got. But also, (ii) when you live by playing defense and field goals, you also die by playing defense and field goals. This was a close, physical game decided by a few big plays: Tre loses leverage and focus on the deep pass, Mabin needlessly tugs a jersey and then loses contain, Dawkins gets flagged for phantom holding. If your strategy is to play it close, settle for field goals and try to eke out a win (Jauron Ball), you're going to lose a few close games like this, just as you'll win a few close games. It is what it is, as Aristotle said.
