  1. So are Chicago's, Baltimore's, Philadelphia's, and any other team with a QB who can run. So what?
  2. The Bills average 4.55 yards on RB carries this season, tied for 11th best in the NFL.
  3. No. The Bills are a far better team than the Dolphins are and they will show it.
  4. Singletary actually at 642 yards, 4.4 YPC. Bills are 4th in the NFL in YPC at 5.0. The "we can't run" angle is way overblown and has shown to be false. It's far more we would rather throw the ball than it is we can't run it. And Fins blitz a ton which forces man coverage and their backs to be turned to the QB which will open up huge running lanes for Allen most likely. If the Fins choose to play D like they did against the Chargers, Allen will have 150 yards rushing Saturday. Bills are 9th in Power Success Rate at 73%
  5. Allen can still throw the ball. Miami is one of the worst running teams in the NFL at under 90 yards a game, the Bills are one of the best rushing teams in the NFL(8th) and ahead of noted running teams such at the 49ers, Raiders(Jacobs leads the NFL in rushing) and Titans. They are also the only team in the NFL to have 100+ yards rushing in every game this season. Bills are 4th in the NFL in run defense allowing under 100 yards a game. All this to say...these fears are not only irrational but will likely be unfounded.
  6. Miami has 5 wins in WNY in December or January in franchise history. None of them have come in a year the Bills made the playoffs. This will not be the first one.
  7. Yeah...same concept...people are acting like these players are going to turn into the next Adam Thielen...it's not happening.
  8. The Fins were already going to get their ass handed to them before the weather, this pretty much ensures it.
  9. This appears to show Groot has been the 3rd best edge pass rusher in terms of performance over expectation based on his assignments. Only behind Parsons and Garrett. That's pretty good company.
  10. When a team is lacking talent, it's easy for players like Hodgins to get reps and catches. Similar to Robert Foster here. Once they start improving, he goes back to becoming a fringe/PS type player. Happy he is getting a chance, but I doubt he becomes a regular 500-600 yard player year in and year out.
  11. I feel this has probably been the wildest schedule the Bills have had in a long time in terms of playing in their normal 1pm timeslot. We may have played our last Sunday 1pm game of the year against the Jets last week. We play Miami and the Bears on back to back Saturdays, then the Bengals on Monday Night. Patriot game is a TBD game, but seeing as it might be to determine playoff seedings and/or Patriots making the playoffs and the Bills are national media darlings, there is a relatively high probability it gets moved. Guess this is the price of being good in the new era of games played in non-traditional timeslots more and more, but that doesn't mean I have to like it.
  12. They like them on teams I guess That's not true...nobody knows how the game will play out...very few teams that win the Super Bowl "play their best game". They mostly play well enough to win and the other team doesn't.
  13. Allen played in Wyoming. It's less about growing up in cold/snow than it is about playing in it regularly. Anyone can become accustomed to it but it's a lot harder for teams that aren't used to it to get over that mental hurdle of playing in it. Sometimes you can see those teams are defeated by the weather before even getting on the field.
  14. The Dolphins literally may be more interested in getting the game over as fast as possible than trying to win it. Like so many other times they came here in December and laid an egg.
  15. WGRZ Meteorologist Patrick Hammer...assuredly will be getting LES during the game moderate to heavy at times with gusty 15-30 mph winds. Should be a doozy. And damn these Twitter posts only embedding properly like 10% of the time when I post from my phone. Is there some trick for that to work? https://mobile.twitter.com/pathammer/status/1602994095646990336
  16. And got fired from three places... Niagara Gazette, WIVB and Lockport Sun Journal all parting ways yesterday with him.
  17. Clock management doesn't seem to be an issue. They lead the NFL in points scored in the last 2 minutes of the first half. Never have any issues running out of time I'm those drives and usually don't leave much time for the other team. OP, I know it's en vogue to find things to complain about with the best team we have had in...I don't know...almost 35 years...maybe ever...but trust me...this ain't it.
  18. There will likely be places with more than 2 feet.
  19. Almost assuredly at this point we are going to get hit with another major lake effect event this weekend. Where it ultimately ends up hitting worst will depend on the wind direction. Currently appears Southtowns and Southern Tier/Ski County to get the worst of it. OP in the crosshairs. https://mobile.twitter.com/pathammer/status/1602625002746019842
  20. NWS Buffalo or Donn Paul.
  21. Yeah...the best team in the AFC and 3rd highest scoring team in the NFL is "desperate". Where do these people come from?
  22. From what it looks like to me they are...that was the offense that was most potent IMHO. They just started steamrolling people and there was nothing you could do seemingly...every top 10 defense they shredded that year for the most part. Could we see Brown, Beasley and Diggs as the WRs with Davis splitting time with Brown and McKenzie back to gadget guy? Could be more explosive of we can get similar contributions with the addition of Hines and Cook. Will depend on how much Brown/Beasley have left in the tank. Thoughts?
