They’ve all been against teams with good defenses who may have figured out ways to slow down this offense. Time for the coaches and players to make the proper adjustments.

With you 100%. I’ve been saying it since last season. You need to get any advantage you can vs the opposition. By consistently going with an empty backfield, you’re giving the defense the advantage of not having to worry about the run, unless it’s Josh running. If you have a RB back there, the defense doesn’t know what you’re going to do. That RB is also available to chip an unblocked defender or slip out as a safety valve if the rush is closing in on Josh. It has frequently been said over the years that one of the best ways to beat a relentless pass rush is to run a screen or two. Can anyone tell me how many screen passes the Bills ran yesterday? I wouldn’t be surprised if it was zero.

They had 2 weeks to prepare. It’s inexcusable!

Here I was thinking it would be great to be 4-0 before the back-to-back road games in KC and Tennessee, with the toughest game probably being this Week2 game in Miami. Now, have to hope for 3-1. I really liked how last regular season ended and hope it’s the new norm. The Patriots have always seemed to be working out the kinks in the first month or two and then go on a roll into the playoffs. That’s what the Bills did last year and is the best scenario. The Bills Super Bowl teams tended to be like 11-1 or 10-2 going into the last month and then finished 13-3 or 12-4. Granted, they usually could rest their starters in the last game but they didn’t seem to be playing their best at the end.

Haack also seemed to be moving slow and, yes, it looked like if he took another step he would’ve kicked it into the O-line

And why was Moss a healthy scratch? Are their styles too much alike and they wanted Breida’s speed as a change of pace? He was not very good.

One other thing not mentioned yet in this thread: why do they keep bringing Levi Wallace back as the starting CB when he has games like this? He was horrible.

It looked like Gilliam was also back there to maybe pass block but by the time he saw the DB it was too late.

I did when I heard Dobbins was out for the year right before a draft.

What stability? The owners said they need a new stadium to be paid with public funds and made a veiled threat that Austin, Texas is interested in getting a team. They backed off that but say they won’t renew the lease on the current stadium until a new stadium is decided on. I know it’s just threats again but what if there isn’t enough public funding? Now, if you’re talking about GM/Head Coach I understand.

Thanks for your suggestion. A week ago they said no discounts available. Today, customer service rep said I was already getting it at a discount for $300. They forwarded me to a specific NFL Ticket rep and she gave me 25% off. More money for beer, pizza and wings!

I’ll take the LA Rams.

Kyle Hamilton was awesome. Not too many players could have made his 2nd INT. Since broadcasters think he’ll go top 10, no chance for Bills to get him unless they trade up from 32. 😀

Well, it makes sense to be up on what people are talking about.

Favre played in 2 Super Bowls, winning one. I’ll take that comparison.

It’s stupid to expect players to hold back their emotions. If a defender has been dogging you all game and talking smack, you have the right to get excited when you make a big play. Sure, some players cross the line, but it’s all part of sports. Let them settle it on the field. If it boils over like the Lawson/Fournette episode, then deal with it. Are they going to start giving trophies to everyone after the games?

Some trolls are just haters.

Your avatar looks like the bison pooped out the rocket.

So, they release Matt Barkley, one of Josh’s best friends, in the offseason. Then, they bring in his Wyoming buddies, Hollister and Tanner Gentry, but now release them. I hope the ink is dry on that new contract.

How about a crown for Hall of Famer, although I also like the gold jacket suggestion, if you can find/make one. OMG, was that someone from Alone?

Did you even watch the games last year after Feliciano came back? He elevated the play of the whole line.

Didn't we go thru a deal with McD saying Gilliam was a TE, don’t call him a FB? Now he’s a FB? Weird.

RB Jarrett Patterson made the WFT roster, QB turned TE Tyree Jackson made the Eagles roster. Malcolm Koonce on the Raiders as no surprise, being a 3rd round pick. TE Mason Schreck, WRs Anthony Johnson and Antonio Nunn were released.

Great info. Thanks. Maybe, but I think he & Harris were mainly signed to play the last game.

I wish Beane could help the Sabres make an Eichel deal
