  1. How sad is if that I immediately thought about Knox when that TD pass went off the TE’s fingertips? Knox owes us quite a few sensational catches (with no/minimal drops) to wash his shaky hands perception away.
  2. What surprises me most about Bernard’s game is that you hardly ever see him get driven backwards, even against bigger, more powerful backs. I also rarely see him on skates versus offensive linemen. Remember the Bills vs Bucs OT game where Edmunds had Fournette dead to rights in the hole and Fournette shook off his weak tackle attempt? I fully believe Bernard makes that stop for no gain and the Bucs punt on the ensuing play, giving the Bills another chance to win. As we all know disaster struck right after giving up the first down. Edmunds tackle attempt is at the 14:54 mark in case the video doesn’t automatically go there. The second play at the very beginning of this highlight video is what I saw many times: Edmunds on skates. Bills vs Bucs OT game
  3. Thanks, now he’ll fumble this week.
  4. Ridiculous but I’ll give them that if they’re willing to revisit what constitutes roughing the passer. That’s my most infuriating penalty.
  5. Knox is just not a natural pass catcher, never has been. A couple offseasons ago he spent hours improving his hand-eye coordination to the point where he fatigued the muscles in his eyes… and he still can’t consistently catch the ball. The failed TD that hit his hands against the Commanders should’ve been an easy catch too. Bad contract when it was given and looks even worse now. Great guy, mediocre TE.
  6. I don’t know what the answer should be, but in situations where 3 defenders commit a personal foul versus one on the other side, ALL penalties should not offset. Took the crew 10 minutes to essentially pick up the flags for deliberate and intentional malice. It’s also part of the debate that a personal foul penalty should never offset with a lesser one (eg illegal formation). In that situation, how about subtracting the yardage from the bigger penalty and counting the down without awarding offensive yards gained/lost? Would that be fair?
  7. Wouldn’t have a problem with the 1 yard outs to Diggs if he wasn’t well covered, but what’s a gain of 1 going to do when you had actual time in the pocket, meaning no defender broke through, and the other routes aren’t allowed to develop? Everyone’s asking what’s wrong with the offense and to me it looks clear. Dorsey lacks ingenuity and Allen is too centered on Diggs to truly carve up a defense.
  8. Just saw that Boogie Basham had a tackle. I wasn’t even aware he was active.
  9. Oh you know he does. I don’t think any QB is immune, it’s the nature of the position.
  10. Josh can do no wrong. It’s all Dorsey. (though Dorsey does have his frustrating faults and I wouldn’t mind if the playcalling was handed over to Joe Brady)
  11. My point was he’d rather target Diggs for minimal yardage, despite the coverage and protection, than sit in the pocket and wait for other options. Wonder why the offense isn’t moving as efficiently?
  12. There were a couple passes were the ball came out insanely fast to a well covered Diggs for less than 5 yards despite no defenders around Josh. Let’s not act like it’s a jailbreak every pass.
  13. Head on a swivel, field vision. I’ve seen Mahomes do it time after time. He was locked on who he was throwing in that pic so he wasn’t going to see Cook cutting across uncovered.
  14. I wish Josh wasn’t so overly reliant on Diggs. He’d rather throw a one yard pass to a well covered Diggs, than sit in the pocket and patiently go through his reads. It’s compromising the offense. At least his reliance worked on the TD pass to Harty; there were like 3 defenders that ran with Diggs, leaving Harty wide open.
  15. As a coach, I would never punt from the opponent’s 37 yard line. I’m either going for it or kicking a FG every time. It’s cowardice to punt from inside the 40.
  16. Who’s the best 1DT on a losing team? Go after that guy, value should be reasonable.
  17. I didn’t love the trade up. If Kincaid fell to the Bills at their original pick, okay sure, but wasting another 4th? Don’t care if Dallas took him either, another player with lots of potential would've been available, as is usually the case in the early rounds. Last year when we pissed away our 4th trading up for Elam, these were some of the players available at pick 130, before the Bills next selection of Shakir: QB Sam Howell (WAS) WR Romeo Doubs (GB) TE Isaiah Likely (BAL) TE Chigoziem Okonkwo (TN) OT Spencer Burford (SF) OT Cordell Volson (CIN) LB Micah McFadden (NYG) CB Josh Williams (KC) The majority of them are starters and could’ve been, at the least, key contributors here. There’s legitimate value in fourth round picks and we’ve pissed away both in consecutive years. I really wish Beane was more patient.
  18. Roughing the passer in this league… woof.
  19. I’m sure Beane envisioned Kincaid being more of a weapon but it’s still early.
  20. I don’t care if they’re no longer top 5 or the top defense in the NFL. Just make a few timely stops against the better offenses, that’s all I ask. Can we get 3 punts from the likes of Mahomes, Tua, etc.? It’s up to Josh and crew to win us the SB. Always has been.
  21. “The human piece of garbage crap that he is…” If McD won us 7 Superbowls, I wouldn’t care what his record would be after Allen left, or if the wins were mostly attributed to his superstar QB. If he won that many championships in Buffalo, how could any Bills fan call him the above? Patriots fans are spoiled, entitled, whiny B words.
  22. No, because I don’t think the return would yield more than his production. The league buys low and I don’t see any GM giving up more than a 4th rounder or some other rotational/part time player. That’s not going to help the Bills.
