Sounds like you aren’t too sure either Teddy, but l’ll accept the bet. I don’t have an avatar so I’d love to lose this bet and get one. ?? Sounds good. I’m gonna find a nice Justin Bieber one for you.

That being said, your opinion has been, as long as I can remember, negative about this team. I understand the frustration of being a Bills fan. We all understand that frustration. The issue I think most of us take with your opinion, and those of the vast majority of the negative Nancies around here, Is that you offer no real viable alternatives, just dwell upon the negatives. I cannot speak to your knowledge of the game, but I can definitely speak to your opinion. And your opinion doesn’t really have any backing, it’s just negative. What viable alternatives would you like to hear?

I may be in a different position than some, having played football growing up. When people are spouting off about “ he isn’t good enough “ or “he’s a bust”, give us specific analysis of why that opinion was formed. Many people on the board use an “eyeball analysis “ and don’t spend any time actually re-watching plays to determine what actually happened. I respect an opinion formed through knowledge and research, but constant team and player bashing just becomes a biased opinion unless backed by real analysis. We all see the posters who just opine without back-up and it gets a bit more than ridiculous.

I got impatient reading all the gloom and doom. Buffalo Bills at Miami Dolphins Odds: Bills -6.5 Over/Under: 39 some trivial stats some more relevant stats: JA is 31st in completion percentage (59.9), tied for 25th in yards per attempt (6.8), 29th in passer rating (81.6), and 26th among QBs with at least 100 attempts in passing yards per game (213.2).

There is plenty of analysis of why they think a player, coach or GM isn’t going to work out.

BAD Please make sure you are not skewing the stats to prove your point Just like Tyranny's thread for his short career 59.9 isn't great. A thread I was sure was meant to show an improvement has been failing to do so. BUT when you look at the improvements he's made you can't argue he's had two 70 + % games in the last month and 1 INT. Now you can keep complaining about the SMALL data set you want. Or his lack of production yardage wise. Comp % YPG RATE 4QC GWD QB 1 62.1 235.3 85.7 2 3 JA 59.9 213.2 81.6 3 4 What do you think of those #'s by a two 2nd year QB's *NOTE Josh's season isn't over QB 1 never had above a 68% comp ratio and his career comp is 64.1% Edited November 13, 2019 by SlimShady'sGhost
Dont Stop Billeiving Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 What's the over/under on the number of snaps played by Wilkins before getting ejected this week? ? Still not sure what was said or done that triggered his reaction (does anyone know???)...he was universally praised as a high-character guy coming out of Clemson and I liked him as a draft prospect. Not flashy but solid and one of the few pieces they have to build around on that side of the ball. 1
Buffaloed in Pa Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Another loss. They are up and we are falling fast. No O again 1

Boca BIlls Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 Crazy how the Bills go from playoff machine to they might not make it by the end of the season. This game will be a win 14-10... Offense still cannot score.

eball Posted November 13, 2019 Posted November 13, 2019 So if the Bills put up 30+ points on Sunday and win by double digits will all of the gloom and doom around here cease? Or am I going to have to avoid this site like the plague for the remaining 7 weeks of the season? It's pretty amazing to me how many fans are incapable of seeing a work-in-progress Bills squad that is likely to win 10 games and earn a playoff spot this season but WAS NEVER EXPECTED TO BE PERFECT this season. There are unmistakable holes and they are far from a finished product. My biggest concern, actually, is the bad game by Josh on Sunday, but if he bounces back I'll be satisfied. 2 4 1
