DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 I fixed the problem on my end This post is hidden because you have chosen to ignore posts by JM2009. only works when online, other wise you will be still reading his posts when you lurk, which everyone does. I find the ignore feature for those with either thin skin or they just can't restrain themselves to just skim over those posts they find annoying. Ill be done when you tybots quit crusading and ruin another website. kind of like those crusading the so called tybots?
Big Gun Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 So an offense that isn't up to Atlanta is a failure? good to know. Didn't say anything about the offense Einstein.
Putin Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 The Bills offense wasn't the issue. They've been top 10 DVOA the last two years. They scored a lot. In fact they lost 6 times last year while scoring 24 points. The AFC playoff teams had 5 such losses combined. I don't think that we need to convince people that the offense wasn't the problem. It wasn't perfect but wasn't near the top of the list of reasons that the Bills weren't in the playoffs. Will it continue? Will the defense take big strides? How much will McDermott & co upgrade the coaching? Will the best players stay healthy? A lot of "what ifs" but if the offense is top 7 in scoring again (where they were through 16 weeks) this team will win more than 7 games. How many close games did we lose last year by 6 points or less ? Many here blame the defense or praise TT for keeping us in the game by NOT turning the ball over , what bothers me is that TT was incapable ( beside the Titans game ) of putting together a game winning drive , so forgive me for not buying ( TT is better then we think ) he' is who think he is ( backup QB )
Eric Moulds on my A** Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 Ill be done when you tybots quit crusading and ruin another website. Drama, drama, drama... it's all you've got man. It's like daytime talk with you Maury Povich. Hot takes like tabloids. Take a lap and think it over bud.
BuffaloHokie13 Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 What level did Atlantas defense play at? What level did Atlantas QB play at? Atlanta's offense scored 540 points, 71 more points than any other team in the league last year. That's 4.4 points per game more than everyone. They had the 2nd most passing TDs and the 3rd most rushing TDs. It's an anomaly. The year before that (with the same QB and same OC) they scored 339 points, good for T-21 in the league. In 2015 they passed for 21 TDs, good for T-23 (2 fewer than Buffalo's run first offense) and ran for 13 (T-12).

He was 'incapable' except when he wasn't. How about just saying he rarely did it? Also, for the record, he also had a GWD against the Jags this year, and the 2nd Miami game really should have been a game winning drive. Yeah I know, shoulda, coulda, woulda.

HappyDays Posted June 22, 2017 Author Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) This is wrong. Tyrod was below average when not under pressure...he performed much better when facing pressure, which a number of us attribute to his mobility and playmaking ability. Crusher what do you mean that what I posted was "wrong"? Our offense's DVOA when Tyrod was under pressure was negative, that is a fact. It was also the 2nd highest DVOA in the league in that situation, that is also a fact. Our DVOA when he wasn't under pressure was average but it was also a positive number, another fact for you. The offense looks best when Tyrod is not under pressure. I mean, that should be obvious with or without stats. It's only good when he's under pressure insofar as other teams perform worse in the same situation. Where am I wrong? I am not sure you're really understanding how to interpret the stats I've presented. And I don't know how else to explain it. The argument you SHOULD be going with is that Tyrod is responsible for his own high under-pressure percentage since that's the only possible reasonable argument to be made. There, I just gave you a freebie. Edited June 22, 2017 by HappyDays

I get that people will disagree, but the drama is ridiculous. You'd think a bunch of adults would act like adults.
Stank_Nasty Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 I get that people will disagree, but the drama is ridiculous. You'd think a bunch of adults would act like adults. i engaged in this crap for about a week once i found this board after BBMB, realized the handful of people arguing from either side look silly and so now i just graze through with occasional random input and just chuckle at most of this ridiculous dialogue.
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 (edited) I get that people will disagree, but the drama is ridiculous. You'd think a bunch of adults would act like adults. drama does suck, I agree. I think the QB topic itself is nothing but drama and if both sides and those in between with their petty agendas would just realize that at this point and until those who make football decisions make the change, TT is the starting QB, like it or not. but, that wont happen. drama along with the crusading, agendas and heated debates against or for the QB will continue until and even after, if ever, a legitimate franchise QB is in place...

ddaryl Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 I agree with the masses. this silly 10 page debate over opinions about a simple form of entertainment is SAD those who can't walk away and keep engaging in a debate that will never end you're polluting this forum and offering nothing why do any of you feel you have to dig in and always get the last word in.. say your peace and move on to another topic for Christ sake. After you say it once its been said It happens on lots of message boards but its obvioulsly much worse now that the official BBMB is shut down, and the reason they shut it down was because of crap fest's like this one

We're all waiting for the bolded to happen the off season is way too long
DaBillsFanSince1973 Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 We're all waiting for the bolded to happen yeah, hopefully those young folks waiting wont turn in to a grey beard like I have after waiting for nearly two decades...

John from Riverside Posted June 22, 2017 Posted June 22, 2017 So I was on my way to the popcorn store and I see that this has no longer become a "safe" place and probably subject to being mod closed soon. Hugs to you all
