the 1/11th thing is a nice cliche. Josh Allen is like 80% of this entire team. 

At least to some degree, The Det at KC game dispels your equation.

Not sure if it's been brought up but is anyone else a littler surprised/worried that the Cowboys Giants game is being played on that field Sunday night?  Seems like a quick turn around to get the field in shape for Monday night.  Especially with it having notoriously sh#^^y field conditions (non contact injuries) the last few years.  Unless they fixed it somehow in the off season, maybe i missed some news on that.

If there are issues with the field, I'd feel better about our O-line playing on it than I would feel about the Jets O-line, with Mekhi Becton having left preseason game one after four snaps because his knee wasn't digging the turf.

This game is in NYC on 9/11.

I assume they will do some god awful 9/11 tribute with cops, firefighters, and a huge American flag...

 

The game will probably start WAY late.

Perhaps the most tone deaf post in my 25+ years in this community. You should be ashamed.

Look stopping the Green Bay Jets isn’t all that difficult if you just look at the blueprint the 49ers have given us the past several seasons. The Bills personnel is similar to what the 49ers have run minus MLB where obviously Fred Warner is all world. 
Control the line and limit any big runs something Leslie’s scheme had a hard time with. Chip the TE and don’t allow him free release…and Aaron will eventually get frustrated and start heaving up balls to Wilson like he did with Adams.

I can not disagree.

 

And that's saying something, for we have had some tone-deaf doozies.

I don’t disagree…. My point is any game plan in which the ball is in Allen’s hands less than usual is a bad game plan IMO….regardless of weather.

Kincaid isn’t a good blocker…. 

Is he a better blocker than a WR?  Can he stand in the way of a linebacker or defensive end better than a WR 40 lbs smaller than him?

 

Are you basically saying Kincaid doesn’t a 12 personnel offense?

Yep.  That is a braindead thought to have.

 

Anyone that feels this way should go and watch "9/11 the phone calls from the towers" and remember the fear, pain and suffering that was experienced and is still being experienced to this day for the effected families.  

 

Their simply is not enough that can be done to remember the victims and the horror they went through.

If I had to hazard a guess, you were either too young to remember this or you were not alive when it happened.   I've heard this opinion before with the younger generations that didn't live through that day and the year that followed.  For them it is an item in the history books much like WWII was for me.  You probably don't remember the fear that overtook this country.  You probably don't remember the approaches to the airports barricaded as cars were searched.  You probably don't remember the images of "fly or fry".  You probably have not been to the memorials at the Pentagon, Shanksville and World Trade Center.  It's not your fault that you don't have an active memory of the first responders running into a collapsing building or those that worked the pile.  But the comment is completely insensitive to those that served and the ones that persished.  Such a shame you will be inconvenieced by the extra 15 minutes to start the game.

Pretty sure the fella is old. There's no excuse.

Yep.

 

David Cross has a great bit he did in one of his specials about NFL Fans outside of new york who were mad that they cancelled the games that next sunday with the punchline that they had all these snacks and stuff to eat.  

 

It basically summarizes that posters ignorant comment.

What a disgusting and self absorbed take.  You're probably not but should be ashamed.   One of the worst posts I've seen in years. 

[North Buffalo]

As my special needs son says when we are about to go on a trip... "me no wait!"

[BobbyC81]

FWIW, the Bills are 2-2 all time vs Rodgers, with both wins at home.  Hoping we can take advantage of still developing sync with his receivers.

[jethro_tull]

Greg Cosell was big on Dalton Kincaid in his Jets / Bills preview on OBD.   Also a favorable matchup.  A breakout game for DK would be excellent.  Looking forward to this game !!!

I was working for USAIr at Philadelphia airport at the time of the attacks and my wife is a Flight Attendant for American Airlines. You should probably stop talking
