Pine Barrens Mafia Posted November 6, 2022 Posted November 6, 2022 If our top 10 picked DT could make a game changing play when needed most. Hate away. I'm right, and you all know it. 1 Quote

As far as Josh is concerned oh My .... *cringe* Knowing him he wont be kept out of a game unless its really bad. We shall see. in retrospect I wonder what has caused #17 to misjudge the plays he has chosen to throw and had picked. Is he indeed not realizing the coverages or is it something more. He wants to perform at a high level at least as much as we fans do. If Not More. Quote

They went up to Seattle and lost 12-17 with both teams 5-2 at that time....Simms sacked 7x and threw 4 INTs. Stuff happens and it's why they say on "any given Sunday". Quote

The only way we were going to win was pound and ground; don’t be too proud or egotistical to take it. That’s a fair point on the offensive side. I still don’t like the defensive game plan at all though in terms of being passive Quote
GolfandBills Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 8 minutes ago, Brianmoorman4jesus said: The entire team absolutely sucked today but you punt that ball inside their 10, you absolutely do not let them score on that drive. Jesus Christ we should have had the ball back at midfield. Not only did we not, they ran the clock out and scored. That’s inexcusable. The offense was terrible but it was Zach Wilson. Get a ***** stop. 20 points to that offense isn’t good. Get up and make a stop with the game on the line Considering Allen gifted them 7 points with his interception inside the Jets 20 the defense didn’t lose that game. 1 Quote

Of course every team is “beatable.” No team is going into a game saying “well, let’s just kill these next 3 hours.” These are professional athletes, this isn’t high school or college-I’m honestly not sure this game did much either way as to how teams view the Bills. They just may have a better idea of what to do to try and beat them I think you are taking things out of context. Of course teams play to win and belief they can if they execute and the other team (if a lot better) plays poorly. I think that dominate teams have a psychological effects on less talented teams. I don't think you can under estimate the mindset of a player. It's often why good teams win close games and vice versa. Take today's game as an example. Couldn't you feel that the young Jets started to believe they could and would win? How confident were you that Allen would led the team to a game winning TD? In summary, the Bills psychological edge has been diminished greatly. Maybe I'm wrong but that's how I feel. Quote

As said elsewhere, the Bucs faced the Saints at home and got turned over 38-3 in 2020. One game doesn’t make a season. The worrying thing is the trends on both sides of the ball carried over from the back end of the Packers game into this one. I have some sympathy for the defense considering who was missing; none for the offense. 2 minutes ago, BillsFan130 said: That’s a fair point on the offensive side.

Not a good look IMO The issue was we seemed to have no passing plan against Garrett Wilson. So if we pushed them to pass, they’d find it too easy to execute in the back field. I do think our plans would have been different had we not been missing Milano and Poyer. Quote

In summary, the Bills psychological edge has been diminished greatly. Maybe I'm wrong but that's how I feel. If the offense isn't scoring almost at will, it seems the whole team struggles because of it. I had a feeling the 2nd half of last week was going to carry over to this week. Lots of people here flamed me for ringing alarm bells that the GB game plan exposed Frazier's use of Nickel as our base D all the time. The only responses I got were "we were winning by 17". OK, and as I said last week, Frazier is too stubborn and rigid to make the adjustments he needs to based on what the offense is doing. Jets clearly were focused on running, but Frazier is more worried about preventing the deep ball. Jets do a copy/paste of what GB was doing against our Nickel in the second half and Frazier wants to act like we are up the 17 pts we were last week. That is why he's not getting any phone calls for HC. Edited November 7, 2022 by Billz4ever 1 2 Quote

What teams committed to the run and exposed it the way GB and the Jets did? Other teams didn't because the Bills had big leads and had to throw. GB was the first team that bothered, even though they were losing. If the Bills offense isn't making it easy for their defense, the Nickel is going to struggle because teams do not have to abandon the run to try and close the gap on the scoreboard. And can someone explain to me why you need to be running base Nickel against Zach Wilson anyway? Another excuse I was given last week too was basically the "Aaron Rodgers factor". OK, Zach Wilson is about as far as you can get from Aaron Rodgers at this point. Edited November 7, 2022 by Billz4ever 2 Quote

You’re upset because god forbid he does something outside of football, as if people aren’t able to multitask or stay focused on the task at hand. What did Josh do today that made him look distracted? Give specific examples. I’m sure he was thinking about his Gillette commercials or his podcast in the middle of the third quarter….give me a break I am upset? Enlighten me on how you came to that conclusion. You are projecting. As for what petty means, geez look it up. I should not have to do your work for you. My goodness you look petty in this thread. Give specific examples? Are you serious, did you watch the game? Josh threw interceptions that literally by any measure were bizarre....like right at the defender with no receiver close. Sure, there will be reasons given, but his reads and throws were off. This is not to mention his really surprising lack of pocket awareness and forcing balls to receivers that he seemed to have developed out of. His apparent audibles also did not seem to work or he did not audible into a play that seemed to have a chance. All this, to me anyway, leads to him being distracted. Which is not an usual place to be in life. We all have been distracted in life with trying to do too many things at times. You are free to disagree, as this is a message board. Finally, give you a break? I have. A lot here. Ponder that for a moment. Take care. Quote
Johnnyp566 Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 A garbage brand of football.. just like the half I referenced from last week. Quote
