You haven’t read the article yet are compelled to dis the narrative? 🤦‍♂️ Very Nextmanup of you.

Take a Midol and stfu, Ma’am. (As for your ‘orientation’, just a wild guess..🤷‍♂️)

I have to think this has been discussed at OBD as much as here at TBD. But doing so takes away his greatest aspect -covering the middle of the field on short throws. It’s in every teams’ playbook for Hot reads. WRs, TEs & RBs are always circling in this area. A couple Patriot* receivers made a multiple SB career out of it. Edmunds length is freakish enough that many QBs no longer even attempt this, but his best attribute is his speed to go along with his unique frame. Do we all wish he hit like Jack Lambert? Read plays like Willie Lanier and be ever in the right spot like Dick Butkus? Of course. But none of those guys faced today’s game. It’s a passing 1st game today and that area of the Defense has been easy pickin’s since the West Coast Offense first reared it’s head. Tremaine brings a dimension perfectly suited to defend against this. I think the onus is on us the fans to accept it and be grateful he can take away this prevalent aspect of today’s game. Now, being better at recognizing run schemes and keeping himself from being fooled in another direction is still a noticeable challenge, but this can be learned. Speed and gigantic reach can’t.

Wow. I know you! - you’re Jethro Bodine, aren’t ya? Seems evident you only graduated “plum through the 6th Grade”.. 1st, it isn’t your money, so quit yer damn crying. 2nd, his ‘22 salary is average for starting MLB’s. Should the Bills (no, son, not you..) decide by next season they can’t get all of what they need from him as our starter (read Buffalo Bills 4th year starting MLB, Pro Bowler and Defensive Captain), they’re under no further financial commitment 13 months from now. These, my prodigal son, are what the Bills wish to do with THEIR money and Their player in the real world. Hot-headed nincompoops screaming from the cheap seats aren’t invited to weigh in. Obviously, I didn’t type slow enough for this to sink in.. 3rd, you weren’t asked to vote for team captains and Pro Bowl nor decided who plays where and how often. NFL coaches, players and select voters do -thus rendering your witless ramblings.. well, witless -as befits a Jethro Bodine. I hope you’re able to follow this explanation. I don’t care to -ya know, type slow again..

Marv Levy enjoyed more than a decade (HC & GM) of kicking Miami’s a**. A career winning record vs. Shula when Don coached some great teams and had a HOF QB. But, yeah, the 70’s thing may take the year 2121 to overcome. Simply put, yourearoyalpainintheass. You’d be a bit more tolerable if you injected just a little humor in your posts. Ya know, confirm you’re not a dysfunctional Bot. Anyway, the announcers said it was Milano who was injured when the clock was stopped, then ran off more time since we didn’t have a TO. But Milano didn’t leave the field, so 🤷‍♂️

A great player and a better Buffalo Bill. Talk about High Motor, Mark Pike wrote the book on it! A true WNY treasure with his tireless ‘give back’ to the community! Rest In Peace, #94.

One last entry on the Pats*

I’ve turned on the Tom signal.

What exactly is “grand” about bidding adieu on a small market teams’ fan forum? Hell, the amount of Bills fans in WNY alone who've never heard of or visited here is an overwhelming majority. We regulars take pride in our little corner of the world, if only to find like-minded folks to commiserate with.. Like you and I, Casey has bore witness to the near entirety of this teams’ existence. With the exception of little more than a dozen years, this experience has largely been a forgettable debacle of misery and humorless comedy. Everyone here has stood graveside of a dearly departed who passed never experiencing an NFL or NHL title. I won’t even go into John Y. Brown.. We’re Buffalo. We suck and we seemingly always will. No one who doesn’t have family here, moves here by choice. Why are scenes from pregame last night being shown repeatedly across the nation today? Cuz it’s our image to the outside world. Our mantra. 🤷‍♂️ The man stopped by to turn in his fan card after a long life of broken heartedness, shattered dreams and anger issues. I commend our brother Casey and often wish I could do the same. I can’t. The chains that bind me are too strong. dammit..

THIS particular thread topic gets rehashed every week here this year. Please use last weeks rendition to add your 2cents.

Hi, Noob! Welcome to the Board. You can check out anytime you want, but you can never leave.. (maybe) Had you watched the game, you’d know I was referring to Bass’ final FG attempt, one drive before the last one. By missing this very short FG for failure to apply anti-windage, we were forced to go for a TD on the last drive. btw, the asterisk rightfully and forever attached to the ex-Boston team name is due to their never-ending cheating, much of which has been exposed, proven and heavily disciplined for. It will likely always be spelled this way.

To @finns point, Bass, the ESPN announcers and everyone watching knew the ball would move dramatically from left to right down there. Pats* kicker proved it in the 3rd quarter with his short, heavy kick to the left whipping wildly right to split the uprights. Bass’ kick unfortunately was spotted on the right hash mark which meant he’d really have to kick wide left from in close just to pull it back with the wind. He didn’t. He kicked it straight on, thus watched helplessly as it trailed wide right. Hopefully, he’ll learn from this. Too bad it cost us the game for his education.

just an aside, but for every damn crying thread filling up Page 1 here today, this is by far the most intelligent, balanced and thought provoking thread. Thanks for the contributions everyone -except @Sugar High JA17, who’s life expectancy is on mortal life support..

The distinct absence of ‘Josh Allen late-game heroics’ has been a concern for me since the Tennessee game. When Jacksonville and now NE* games produced no necessary late game heroics, I now fear this once daunting magic aspect of our Super QB has sadly expired. I DON’T blame Allen for this latest travesty one bit. He was clearly our best player on the field last night -which is his greatest routine aspect. But the lack of accomplishing the final touch is as much contributing to these disastrous recent results as the overall poor team performances.

AWESOME! I love seeing cretins blow themselves up in fantastic fashion! Goodbye, forever. 🤣 BWAHAHAHAHAHA!

Showing your ignorance in fantastic fashion earns you style points. Glaring lack of understanding, not so much. I’ll type slowly so you may be able to comprehend. Applying the 5th year option gives the team one more season of coaching and growing with intent to mold this rare physical specimen into a HOF game-changing player. If unsuccessful, he’s released after next season with no future $$ obligations

This topic being discussed in the -well, EVERY damn thread! Use the damn Search function or peruse topics to determine if you have a different topic to discuss. 🤦‍♂️

Thank you @Gugny for finally bringing evidence to this thread.

Damn, you’re a real charmer.. 🤦‍♂️ Yeah, you’re going to do great things here. I have a nose for this sort of thing. But, Hey! Welcome aboard! 🙄

It was understandable when -as a teenager, he was thrust into a starting role because he’s an absolute physical freak. But now that he can buy rounds of cocktails while his unawareness remains staggering prevalent, his future here must be re-evaluated. To those crying we shouldn’t have added the 5th year option on the 1st Rounder, it was a shrewd option to see if he would finally grow into the role at the veteran age of 22 (Ha!). He hasn’t and the team can now opt to let him test FA after next season unrestricted by a ton of dead money for years after.

I sadly agree with @FireChan. This yet another ‘cave in game’ has produced alleged accusations of McDermott throwing players under the bus, Hyde losing it on a venomous slimebag reporter, Allen’s now tired ‘it’s on me’ postgame rhetoric and guaranteed fewer fannys in the seats in December & January for a team incapable of creating a Home Field advantage. The charmingly rare occurrence of GM/HC/OC/DC staying together for 4 seasons died an ugly death last night, foul weather notwithstanding. There WILL be changes in this group in the all too soon offseason. There HAS to be.

I did -and it WASN’T a factor. Both teams drove the length of the field facing the wind late in the 3rd and throughout the 4th quarter. Our last drive ended with a long, clock eating drive that had us with 1st & Goal when Knox wasn’t strong enough to catch yet another throw that hit both his hands then jumped Offside and Allen and Beasley played the dangerous ‘If/Then’ pass pattern under a heavy blitz. 🤦‍♂️

What DIDN’T happen was a ST turnover which surely would’ve contributed to a loss. As others here love to argue, McKittrick has “Only One fumble”, the shrimp has double-dribbled many kick returns he, his teammates and the sidelines have covered up for. Yes, he’s a quick little runner. But there’s a reason so few of his ilk Don’t play in the NFL. I haven’t yet heard Sean’s comment so I won’t comment here. (OP, it’s on you to provide links to back up audacious accusations in the thread start @Niagara Dude 😡) but #19 should be cut, imo.

I completely agree. The question that needs to be asked, imo, is Why? Why have we refused to acquire better OLinemen and a big Back who can catch and block? It’s not like our OL is exceptional in passpro. Take away Allen’s Houdini-esque escapability, and all of them sans Brown need upgrading. This well-known, glaring team weakness is on McBeane and has been since they handed the future to Allen. How is it that EVERYONE aside from these two know this, yet they’ve purposely done nothing about it? IF there are any brawlers on the team who could raise the current level of OL play, they’re currently playing on the Dline. For Gods Sake -and continued employment @ OBD, Git-er-Done Brandon!
