Weather looking great for Saturday. High of 34, mix of sun and clouds, 10% precip and 5-10 mph wind

 

Allen should have a day.  I believe Indy has given up one of the most 20+ yard pass plays this year.  Their corners can't hold up.

I know it’s a week-to-week league, but the Doug Marrone-led Jags notched their only win of the season against the Colts.  This is not a juggernaut we’re facing on Saturday.

 

Since Doug Marrone should he be hired as Defense assistant for playoffs?

At the risk of hyperbole, he's as accurate, smart and mobile as Young and as big as Elway. In short, he's a bigger, faster, stronger Mahomes. I say that not as a homer but based on the evidence. No, he hasn't won the Super Bowl yet, but otherwise he's simply offers more than Mahomes. (Will lightning strike me dead by comparing him to the Holy One?)

I have to say the best comparison I've heard is still that one analyst saying "Brett Favre playing as Cam Newton in Madden" although I think Josh's passing ability is way ahead of Cam at any point in his career

They have a really good running back, but I think we are playing well enough on defense to force a punt or two. I hope we see the pad-popping, aggressive Edmunds that made an appearance against Miami. I was really pleased with his form, heads up but kept the pads low, took good angles, and wrapped up till his teammates swarmed to the ball.

 

Our safeties need to be on their toes early and play more disciplined in coverage expecting at least one trick play. Two weeks in a row we allowed a flee-flicker type play where the second player to get the ball behind the LOS lobbed a deep pass on us. Both times those receivers were open and the passes were dropped. That will not go unnoticed by a team that knows getting a lead on us early may help them control the game.

 

Our offense is looking sharp and if they can get on the board early, Indy will have a tough time protecting their QB with their starting LT out.

Elway's arm, Kelly's toughness, Staubach's elusiveness, in Big Ben's body frame

I've posted before I think his intermediate throws are as good as any QB in NFL history, right up there with Marino.  The combination of accuracy and velocity is unmatched and it is the throw that separates him from the rest of the league.  Wilson and Rodgers have better deep balls and Brady/Brees are better on the dink and dunk stuff.  Only Mahommes is comparable when looking at the full array of throws.

I got a question why don’t teams play us like we did KC 6 DB and make us beat them with the run we haven’t really showed to many times this year we can stick to the run. I wouldn’t be surprised if the colts do this or try go all in on the pass if we run so be it it’s better to give up some runs then big plays to the pass. What do y’all think go bills. 

Good post.  I think it's the running ability of Allen.  At least some of the time they employ a spy on Allen.  If they had 6 DBs I suspect some of the RPO plays that are quick slants would change to runs off tackle

And we didnt lose to Tenn because they gashed us on the ground (turnovers and we were down ALL OF OUR CBs) 

Yup, Tenn game was a travesty of COVID, injury, and delays that resulted in a lopsided loss fueled by -3 in TO margin. 

KC and Patriots first game, the Bills run D was gashed.  Pats backup RB had over 6 YPC.  

I still fear physical teams and Edmunds ability to read the run, but there is no doubt the defense is playing better.  Dline is healthy and even with a few guys up there in age are well rested.

We will not lose to Phillip Rivers, let him throw all day and just stop Jonathan Taylor. I should be an NFL coach me thinks.

Agree. His history would suggest he will turn it over if they are able to make him throw 30+.  

As always should the Bills score early with TDs and not FGs, they can force Reich to abandon the run game which plays right into the Bills strength.  

 

Phillips is so immobile. I would really like to see some well timed DB blitzes. I think they can get to him.

I’d rather lose.

Willie McGinest said on NFLN the colts can win by doubling Diggs and handing the ball to Taylor. Seems easy enough on defense. Why didn’t everyone else just do that all year.

LMAO  Sure,  Ignore Brown, McKenzie, Davis, and the 10 others who have caught a TD pass.
