What are the odds that, after the beatdown his team receives, he blames it on the weather?

I don’t know why they’d move it period. No other team ever has to

 

Except for the 49ers, Patriots, Chargers, Dolphins, Saints (for a whole season,) Vikings, Chiefs, Texans, Cowboys and Buccaneers you have a point.

I do gotta wonder, how cold cranking up the AC managed to get their facility.

Have not seen one analyst pick the Dolphins in this one...most say "good luck".

I mean.........when we played them in Miami, the Bills were decimated with injuries, especially on D as we all know, the heat was a factor, Diggs looked like he was about to throw up throughout the entire 2nd half, and the Bills execution was poor to say the least, and yet, we only lost by 2.

 

This time around our D is significantly healthier, we're at home with the weather in OUR favor, plenty of bulletin board material, the Fish look to be the more banged up side, and Tua is terrible in the cold.  This has blowout written all over it (Unless there's 3 feet of snow on the ground).

 

So I agree, good luck Fish.

Hey LeBatard show guy…we’ll get that dome idea looked at as soon as you rip out your stadium and redo the visiting sideline alignment towards the sun…🧐

Do you know where is Marino getting his numbers and how he decides what is or isn't acceptable?  The Bills do have the #2 defense for points against, #9 for yards given up, #4 for turnovers.  So in terms of results, what exactly is "unacceptable"?

 

That has to be some stuff like where some outfit (PFF?) gave Milano a very low grade for the KC game because he wasn't making tackles.  Except in the KC game, Milano's assignment was to shadow Mahomes and once he was flushed to one side, contain/pressure/tackle him.  So no, he wasn't running around covering short routes or minding a gap to tackle an RB, but to observers who understood his assignment, he Killed it.

 

If anyone has actually watched how Milano has been playing, then uses "unacceptable" to describe it, I gotta say, I kinda question how much they know Ball.

I dont know where.  He may mention in his podcasts this week (I think it was herd mentality).  His acceptable is his feeling.  I think it makes sense.  1 in every 5 attempts is a lot of misses (probably 2-3/game for a LB), 1 in every 10 seems more palatable (probably only 1 for a LB).  I dont know how they contextualize these things and agree its important.  If there are others about to swallow someone up, then a missed tackle doesnt matter as much as a missed one in your gap and theres noone else to clean up or one in the open field without anyone else nearby.

Drives me bonkers when people think that the Bills would have played the Browns in Buffalo if they had a dome. That game shut down all roads. No one could get there. The game would have been regardless if it was domed or not.

How many of them are misses where he shoots the gap in the backfield and misses the tackle due to a sudden move by the RB who is then swarmed under by other Bills that get there due to Milano disrupting the play initially?  I feel like this is what I have seen a lot of in terms of missed tackles from Milano which are really inconsequential mostly.

Von was interviewed on The Herd show.  Towards the end Cowherd is asking him about the weather and what it's like in Buffalo.  Von says "There's nothing like Buffalo and the fans....all we care about is football...winning games our Sabres, we have really good Wings and we have really good people here.. That's all we care about"  lol.  Gotta love Von.

Seriously…do they think everyone just teleports to the stadium? Lol they still would’ve moved the game last time even if we had a dome

I think you're both "on" to something.  One thing the Bills have done really really well most of this season is "swarm to the ball".  So if Milano disrupts the play or gets the ankles but doesn't clinch the deal, there's usually a couple of other guys right there.

Bills are #1 in the NFL in "stuff percentage" on running plays. 27% of run plays against the Bills are stopped for no gain or a loss of yards.
