Brianmoorman4jesus Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 I really hope they bring Lee up. This is a week you need speed on defense
RichRiderBills Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 I thought we were going to win until that SI article, now we are jinxed. 1

Hapless Bills Fan Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 Both pleased and "eh" on this. Wish Allen had fewer distractions and could just focus un-hindered on his game day prep and handling his personal business. Hopefully he is better able to cope than last year. 1

We need all hands on deck AND full go in our secondary What will it take to be able to put our 5 best OLinemen out there at the same time??? I’d like to know what we could really look like at this point with our full offense, including John Brown. I know injuries are part of the game, and the bye week is coming, but I’m unsure of what we could really be as an offense.

I agree, I’m not the biggest fan of the media with athletes... but I’m not too bent out of shape about it. Players have specific media obligations they have to fulfill throughout the course of the season. I highly doubt he’s doing excess media work... this is probably just in line with what he’s required to do. 1

The Wiz Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Anyone want to fact check this guy over at arizonasportsfans.com I honestly want to create an account just to point out that AZ was the team the bills traded with to get Allen a year before Murray was even drafted. https://www.arizonasportsfans.com/forum/threads/looking-ahead-to-buffalo.376255/page-7 Actually, SK did take KM over both LJ and JA. We passed on LJ when we took Rosen, passed on JA when we took KM. Now, those decisions will be something to chew on as the careers of the three play out. Edited November 13, 2020 by The Wiz

I'll be honest with you, I'm kinda impressed by the level of conversation there. Are there some homers there? Of course, but after spending a lot of time reading forums over the years dedicated to the Dolphins, Pats, Jets, and Steelers.......the Arizona page seems to have some pretty level-headed, well thought out posts. 1

Reportedly Arizona wanted to take Allen at 10 but bills traded ahead of them before they could and they ended up with Rosen who was never their guy 1

They do. Not sure if they just don't have many fans that post or are just the only fans that follow the team enough to want to post about it but they are pretty fair.

I get it, it's more the likely focus on his grandma and his feels and all that, rummaging through his emotions. Feel like the man should be left in peace to grieve and process his feelings with his family and friends and teammates as best he can while full-bore preparing for a game, and not have the press poking into it every 5 minutes. It's kind of our fault I guess (BillsMafia) raising $400k unsolicited in nothing flat is pretty big news. I will say if it has to go down, I think Kim Jones is a knowledgeable and fair reporter who will treat him decently. And maybe he gets out of some other stuff by doing this.
Penfield45 Posted November 13, 2020 Posted November 13, 2020 3 weeks ago if you told me we’d go into the bye 7-3 with wins over Patriots and Seattle I’d said the division title would be all but wrapped up now with Miami 1 game behind if we lose and the dolphins win I can for certain see the week 17 game come down for the division win. Dolphins could easily come into that game with 9 wins

Josh is a pretty mature young man who seems to learn through experience. Dealing with a loss stinks whether it is trivial like a game or significant like a loved one. I know you know that, and we’d all like Josh to be allowed to grieve in whatever way he prefers. He may even be ok talking about it, for some that helps the healing. I do get where you are coming from. 1
