Crowder popped up on the injury report yesterday with a new groin injury was limited yesterday and OUT of practice today. I don’t think he’s a lock to play at all, and he’s the most dangerous WR they’ve got... He is really good

Yet, not a word about him missing practice... Their kicker, on the other hand.. Edited October 23, 2020 by BobBelcher

Dane Jackson may finally get his shot, if Cam is out this week 1

Defense typically sets a tone for a team, emotionally and confidence. This team has zero confidence on defense right now, plays with little to no emotion, and no fans doesn't help either. Leaders like Kyle and Zo would have helped, but this unit couldn't have asked for a better confidence booster than the Jets, now they just need to execute. On offense, I agree there is something off with the run blocking and/or play calls. Josh had shown tremendous growth, weeks 1-4, I think Daboll needs to take some pressure off him, and get more balanced with the running game, especially when Josh comes out "cold" missing throws. Josh also can't start games 0-4, or 1-5 and expect to get chunk plays every game. We need consistency and then take our shots
BillsFan692 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 (edited) Prediction: Bills dominate a hapless Jets team. Ed Oliver gets 20 sacks on Darnold to lead the league. Fans begin to BILLieve again (although we probably shouldnt.) We'll take it though. Gase #1 i hope they extend him woo! Edited October 23, 2020 by BillsFan692

We need consistency and then take our shots I should also add, I'm very annoyed with our offensive gameplan against press coverage. We did very well against Miami, but they ran more Cover 1...Chiefs brought their safeties up, then bailed to Cover 2 man many times our past game. Daboll needs to get the "bunch" or tight formations, that design more natural rub routes or opportunities to shed the initial 'press/punch. Brown was hobbled and couldn't get off his jam, Davis is still adapting, and Beasley gets out physically at times...which is the downside of smaller Wr room. But we need to motion, or design ways to get off the press....also need to run Play action (from under center) more often 3

How many more years of rebuilding does this regime need exactly? I know these things take time but look at the titans. Mcd will be entering his 5th year next season. If he can’t turn this team into a top 3 team in the conference is he really the right guy long term ? McD has sent the Bills to the playoffs twice in 3 seasons and at 4-2 is on track to make it 3 out of 4. Considering the 17 years of ineptitude that came before him I think he is entitled to our continued vote of confidence in his performance. 3

This game reminds me a little of last year after struggling in three straight home games (barely beating the horrible Skins and Fins while getting outplayed by Philly and getting hammered by the run game) before going to Miami and dominating them. I hope we play with the same sense of urgency against the Jets.
Chandler#81 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 So, is the whole ‘we’ll get right this week’/‘at least we play the Jets’ narrative from Tuesday over with? It’s a Division and Conference game. It’s on the road. With Miami and New England* playing quality ball, the LAST thing we should do is drop our guard and expect an easy win. Flacco isn’t willing to surrender his career and neither is Greggo. Tighten Up! Everybody. 2

However, I know how annoyed i usually am with individuals that act like i am at the moment. So, for the most part, i'm just keeping quiet for the week. Edited October 23, 2020 by Stank_Nasty 2
CaptnCoke11 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Probably going to be a close game. Bills defense is so soft the Jets will have some success moving the ball
BuffaloRebound Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 It’s crazy to me that Bills are favored by 12-13 points against anyone right now. 1
thebandit27 Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 It’s the NFL; any given Sunday. Harken back to week 3 of 2018, when a 2-0 Vikings team was a 17-point favorite hosting an 0-2 team that had been out scored 78-23 in their first two games, with a raw rookie QB making his 2nd start... That 2-0 team got absolutely smoked, scoring a garbage time TD in a 27-6 loss. Any. Given. Sunday. Just win baby. 4
Greg S Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 According to Jets fans their is a rumor out there that the Jets have traded Brian Poole to the Ravens. I haven't seen anything confirmed by a legit source. Poole did tweet "Big Blessings"... Something to keep an eye on if its true or not. 1

whatdrought Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Come on people... we can have a lot of problems and lose two games we should have won/been competitive in, and still be playing the Jets... Chiefs and Titans are top 5 teams and by nature exploit weaknesses... the Jets are a floating piece of trash riding the sewage river towards the trash dump and it’s just been lit on fire. I’m not saying we can look past them or not prepare, but let’s get this whole “oh they might beat us” mentality and shove it out the door. 1
Golden*Wheels Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 Man, starting QB coming back or not, every player on that team knows what is up by the way the team is dealing players and NOT firing the coach. The tank is on. We can't even let this one be close. Be aggressive (on both fronts) early and we'll put it away early. For real!
BillsFanSD Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 "We've had to prepare for both QBs" isn't exactly a heavy lift here. It's not like we're unsure whether we're going to see Montana or Young.
