Paup 1995MVP

Settle down Inigo. Our defense is playing very well. But the 2000 Ravens defense was at a whole nother level to almost any defense ever. (almost there w the 1985 Bears) The game is very different today. The way the rules are between not contacting receivers and not being able to severely hurt the QB on the pass rush, defense will never be that way again. Teams play to stop the big play, and try and get timely turnovers. The Bills are doing great at that. (shout out to Jordan Poyer) As for Josh Allen, he is a top 5 player in the NFL on any given week. He is our best player. Everything goes through him. We have next to no running game without him. (Could you see the difference between the Raven's RB's-Dobbins and Hill and our guys?) He made every play he had to to win yesterday. Allen was better then Lamar. That was the difference. Teams are not winning Super Bowls 13-10. Time to get out of the time capsule my friend..

Shakir should be the guy. Has a lot of game. And Hodgins will be ready. Not sure there is a problem at WR. I think the RB situation is more problematic. Moss is terrible. Bring up Duke and cut Moss. Cook needs some touches too. But dam a top RB would sure be nice.

The play to Gabe in the endzone wasn't going to be overturned. The problem on 3rd and 22 is we only rushed 3 guys. We were getting pressure on Tua all day. If anything we should have blitzed 5 and given him no time to get the ball way downfield. I was livid at that defense.

The roughing on Milano was a joke call. And the one at the goaline on Johnson wasn't much better. Josh isn't taking any ***** on the field from anyone. He is our Favre. He is an amazing baller. He represents the team like nobody's business.

Thats quite a stat Turk. We just need to get healthier hydrated and ready for Baltimore. Just a tough loss to swallow. But we are a dam good team regardless.

I agree 100. I loved it too. I am glad he cares so much.

It was war out there today UK.. The S Florida heat is brutal. We gave a great effort. Were down our entire secondary and 4 O lineman. And Diggs was hobbled. Miami got several calls their way. And Milano should have had a pick 6 and Bass missed a short FG. Allen is a baller extraordinnaire. Tough to lose. But this team is so fun to watch and root for. Get your head on straight. Even Alabama loses once in a while.

I took Buffalo `-4 1/2 and the over 53 1/2. I like those odds better. I also like the Lions +6. The Dan Campbell craziness puts the hex on Kirk Cousins. LOL

Bedford and Elam have played a lot already. Johnson and Hamlin can both play. Our backups are as good as most teams starters. Edmonds and Milano look as good as they ever have. We have a strong pass rush. These guys are all professionals. I think the players worry a whole lot less about injuries on the team then the fans do. They all believe they are good and should be starting. That is the mentality needed to be a professional athlete. We have the best quarterback on the planet. And one of the best WR's as well. We will be fine tomorrow. Games aren't one 13-10 or 17-13 very often anymore. 45-27 sounds about right tomorrow.

Good analysis Alphadawg of our respective schedules. That is a very manly schedule the Bills have over the next month. Road games at Miami Baltimore and KC are nothing to sneeze at. Pittsburgh has a pretty marginal roster, especially without TJ Watt playing. Watching Trubisky play last nite against the Browns was almost painful. (especially since I bet them taking the 4 1/2 points. But Tomlin still should have went for the TD instead of the FG on 4th and 1 on their last drive. Its not 1975 Mike!!) How he was drafted # 2 in 2017 is absolutely beyond me. Kenny Pickett needs to start for the Steelers. Trubisky is just not an NFL starting QB. Cincinnati will get well against the Jets and give the Dolphins all they can handle on Thursday nite. But I do agree that Sunday in Miami is a big game.

There is a chance of rain in South Florida every day. I live there part time and its hot and humid every day. But the rain only stays for a short time unless a tropical storm is blowing in. An interesting tidbit about South Florida weather. It is almost always sunny at the beach. The clouds and showers are usually inland about 2+ miles going towards Interstate 95. Hard Rock Stadium is way inland in Miami Gardens halfway between Fort Lauderdale and Miami. So there will always be a chance of some rain during their games.

Its a week 3 game first of all. And injuries are part of the game. Tua is still a dink and dunker. And after beating the tar out of him last year in Miami, (he will remember that) our D line is better this year. He can't be feeling comfortable going into this weeks game. The Bills offense can not be stopped. I don't know if it can even be slowed down. We may have to win 45-35. But we are certainly capable of doing that.

Stats are way overblown. Its wins and championships that matter.

Moss has terrible vision and not much burst. Keeping him over Duke and Blackshear was solely because he was a 3rd round pick and nothing more. Heck TJ Yeldon at this point would give us more then Moss does. I would be happy rotating Singletary and Cook at this point. Beane has put together an excellent roster this year, so can't be too harsh about it. But the running back situation is puzzling to say the least. Lets hope Moss can make some positive plays if and when he is called upon.

Herbert and Allen are not in the same discussion. Allen is just better in all facets of the game. It was obvious after watching Herbert last nite. The Chargers are going to turn him into a dink and dunker.

Exactly. We dominated. No need to give up garbage time scores, especially to Cooper Kupp. Seeing how bummed Sean McVay was at the end of the game was wonderful. Just an awesome performance to start what will be an awesome season!! Go Bills!!

Duke Johnson and Blackshear both have more game then Moss. Hopefully the coaches realize that soon.

Good response Thanks. I guess I am still caught up in the hype that was OJ Howard coming out of Alabama. Living in the South we get a lot of Roll Tide publicity all football season. Some deserved. Some a little over the top.

If Tenuta was getting better, (I did not watch him so much in the first two games, and did not see the 3rd game) why did we cut him over Doyle who I have seen nothing from him that leads me to believe he has any business playing O line in the NFL?

What do you mean Josh knows Sweeney?? Are you saying he gets to pick his buddies for the team? That sounds silly. But not sure how we end up w Sweeney and Morris as our 2nd and 3rd TE's. That's curious that we cut OJ Howard. What did he do so poorly? The guy ran a nice route for a TD against the Broncos. I don't like Doyle at all. But where are you finding better then Hart, Van Roten, and Quissenberry/Brown? Not a lot of good O lineman around the league. A lot of teams can barely find 4 or 5 starting caliber O lineman, let along backups. Was Cody Ford really worse then Hart and Van Roten?

But they are all better then Levi Wallace!

He was a distraction to the team. Its that simple. He had no clout to stay any longer when he was going to be a distraction as a rookie punter. Who doesn't agree with him being cut? The guy is being sued for taking part in a gang rape of a 17 year old girl at an off campus college party. To be associated with that in any form or fashion is terrible. The Bills are a professional sports team in the national and international public eye. They can't have their players connected with this in the slightest. This isn't a bar fight or even a DUI. This is bad *****. We all know that. The Bills did not do their homework on Araiza. Got to talk to people on campus about the guy-coaches, teammates, other students, figure out the vibe on this guy. People talk about others all the time. This was not some secret. But you live and learn. Lets move forward and be the best team we can be. That's all that matters now.

Who do you think will end up having a better career as an NFL LB Edmunds or Spector?

Do you think Singletary is better then Blackshear or Duke?

I thought he made a nice read, showing good vision cutting back to the left when the hole to the right was completely stuffed. That being said, I don't think he showed much speed once he found the open field because he didn't have to outrun anyone. If he had real NFL speed he probably would have scored there. But overall he ran with confidence which is hopefully a good sign for his play this year. I just don't think speed is his meal ticket.
