Allen back to back offensive player of the week
DrDawkinstein replied to loyal2dagame's topic in The Stadium Wall
Maybe. But the Jets have had a long string of early pick DLs who flounder, then play well in their contract year, then burn out or get moved. We'll see if Williams can sustain this performance through this year, and/or through a couple of seasons. Wilkerson, Ellis, Coples, Richardson, Leonard Williams, Quinnen Williams.... The team seems to be on a better track now, I'll give them that. -
oh my god the saltiness in there.

Are you talking about posting images? If so, just upload your imgs/jpgs to imgur.com and then paste the direct links here. No limit at that point since the hosting is happening elsewhere. Hook this stuff up to my veeeeeeeeins!

PFF grades from KC...(for what they're worth)
DrDawkinstein replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I could see Jackson getting it. It would make sense and follow McD's MO of bringing rookies along slowly. Now that yall mention it, I think I believe it will be Jackson and White. And agreed they ease White back in on rotation. I dont have fancy stats to back it up. I just have a feeling that as long as he is playing well enough, they'll want to give Elam the snaps and experience. End of the day, there really isnt a wrong choice for the staff. Definitely good problem to have! edit: wrt Miller. First off, how dare you 🤣 Secondly, I'll chalk it up to all things happen for a reason. If we had drafted Miller back then, it's probably likely that he isnt on the Bills anymore at this point and not part of this historic team. Also, likely we may have won a couple more games that may have knocked us out of the running to snag Josh. Lastly, Miller is too small to compete with NFL Tackles and will never be good in this league! To this point, I think we're seeing a bit of the "Levi Wallace Effect" on Elam. That being: this Defense is designed to push passes to the #2 DB. It is partly why we saw Wallace being "picked on" or having so many passes thrown his way. Frazier schemes to force the QB to make his read to a certain player or part of the field. That is usually toward our #2DB where they have Safety and/or LB help. Obviously, Elam has a lot of growing and developing to do as well. But I'm not judging him too harshly on that game yet. We still only gave up 3 points, and that pick was in the end zone. -

Not saying he or Benford arent playing well. I just think the coaches' choice is pretty clear. Unless Elam's performance falls off a cliff, they'll have him in there because they want him in there. Now, McD and crew are usually good about playing the better performers, but I dont think there is that much difference to warrant a change of plan at this point. -

Nothing ever personal, my man. I was just giving you back some snark from your "11 of 12 angry men" line and the pitchfork gif. You seem to get offended by my posts more than others, or take our shooting the ***** too seriously? If we were discussing over beers, we'd be perfectly aligned. Go Bills -

Just what I think the coaches will do. -

I dont think its a tough decision either. White and Elam will clearly be our starters when White comes back. Not to take anything away from Benford or even Jackson, but Elam is getting that spot. -
A Few Thoughts about the Chiefs Game, in no particular order
DrDawkinstein replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
Oh yeah, 2 years ago. Tough to keep track nowadays since we basically lost a couple years. What even is time anymore? -

DrDawkinstein replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'm a historical Edmunds detractor, but I also understand his assignments. I dont expect him to jump routes per se, because if he does and misses, the receiver is GONE. His job is to keep everything in front of him, give them those short underneath completions as their only option, then make the tackle. The problem before was that he wasnt making that tackle. Now he is. I will give him that. It's huge. Agreed, I wish he would find himself in better position to tip/deflect passes. Given his length and range you would think we'd see more. He has shown improvement in those numbers this year, but they arent quite where Kuechly's numbers were playing the same role in the same scheme. Your willful blinders on McKenzie's poor performance and lack of reliability given 5 years of data is impressive, I'll give you that. Could ask the same about your post. We dont have to agree with the grades, but they are good jump-off points that lead into better discussion. Thanks for contributing! -

It reminded me of the game-winning* throw Josh made to Diggs against the Cardinals last year. Hit Diggs low to the outside in the endzone just like that. Such a difficult throw to make, and we've seen Josh make it multiple times now. *if not for some lucky bull#### -
A Few Thoughts about the Chiefs Game, in no particular order
DrDawkinstein replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
When you see Pickett put up 300 yards but only 3 points, and Mahomes put up 340 yards and only 20 points... I'd say we're pretty close to bend but dont break. It's will always be the case in the cover-2 shell we run. Teams can move down the field to an extent, if they are happy to take what we give them. But once we get inside the 40-30 yard line, it naturally tightens up. -

Yeah, we know Beane doesnt mind stacking picks at same/similar positions. So I am looking for a re-do of the Wood/Levitre draft where we go Center/Guard in rounds 1 and 2. And then maybe even back to that well later in draft (the equivalent of Benford to Elam). -
Allen back to back offensive player of the week
DrDawkinstein replied to loyal2dagame's topic in The Stadium Wall
I do enjoy me some Colts/Jags as well. Great rivalry. But the games were totally different. -

Ryan passed a bunch and put up numbers, but Josh was clutch in a brutal heavy weight battle. Watching both games it becomes clear who had the bigger game. -

DrDawkinstein replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
True. But if that's what they dinged him on, then you'd think the 2 (3?) really great open field tackles he made later on would have balanced that out. -

Given what we know about Taron, I assumed him getting picked on early had to do with the schemes we were running and purposely pushing the ball to those spots. And when the time came, he made the play he needed to. It was such a coaching chess match of adjustments and readjustments, and both teams doing it so well. -

DrDawkinstein replied to DrDawkinstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
Interesting point. I cant disagree about his poor tackling in KC, but in the previous couple of games he showed great form and was a solid tackler. I'll chalk it up to KC being really good on Offense and being good/smart enough to catch him in bad positions where he had to stretch or dive to try to make a play. -

I thought they were maybe dinging him since Kelce had a decent day, but JuJu had a better day and the DBs scored well, so... 🤷♂️ -
All the Highs make sense, but some of the lows have me scratching my head. WTF are the grading Milano on? I caught the re-air of the game last night and Cookie was all over the field making big plays. Also thought JP and Shaq had good games. Classic PFF I guess. Who else stood out, good or bad, to you guys? Tough to disagree with anything here on the Offensive side.

I feel like similar can be said for the Bills, but it has more to do with how talented we are. I do not see a game left on our schedule where we will not be the favorite. I dont even see a single game that should be close or tough. Maybe Vikings (but that's at home). Maybe @Bengals, but not if they keep going in the same direction. I think outside of losing a close game against THE SUN, I'm already talking about the Bills going 16-1 (shouldve been 17-0). We lost to THE SUN. And kept it close.

At least it's not the Broncos? 🤷♂️
