Buffalo Boy Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 Ahhh, I harken back to the good ol seasons of 2015….. Cam and the “Zero legit receiver” Panthers’ offense were a fraud. They were repeatedly put in easy situations by their Defense. Apparently balanced, safe football is still a bad idea. It wasn’t two Mondays ago but that must have been an aberration. OP from the other thread, I assume by your moniker you watched this team through the drought. Remember, all the NE games where the Bills kept it a one score game into the fourth quarter, sometimes with the lead. Invariably ( usually) we then lost the game and Brady and co would tack on 10 to 21 points and this board would cry a River of regret and consternation. An overarching theme of all those Monday TSW cryfests was, Belicheat and Brady play smart football and we play stupid football. They play a patient game, take the underneath stuff all day and let us beat ourselves. Would you say that is what you saw yesterday? Remember the most awe inspiring Offense NE had during their Brady Era run. Perfect season, CRAZY TD total from Brady as he and Moss made it look like pitch and catch practice. How’d that work out for them. Winning Super Bowls with walk off FGs must not have been very satisfying🤷♂️ Especially that Pete Carroll EOG doozey. The offense is still a work on progress in the third week of the season. We are seeing signs from the QB, O line and RB stable, as well as, the coaching strategy that says, We are trying something different. Different doesn’t happen overnight. But, if we are going to get to the promised land, a stifling D coupled with a multifaceted O, playing SMART football is a proven recipe for success. Some games Josh will have to Super Josh us to a win. But, when he doesn’t have to it is good to keep him upright and healthy. Yesterday was the latter. Have nice things Nabobs and Nancys. Just drink your coffee, smile and Have Nice Things. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wjag Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 For season through week 3, there was a lot to like: Team is still liquid jello, ie still not fully formed, but let's review 1. D giving up 12.33 points per game (7 INTs, 1 Pick 6) 2. O averaging 30.33 points per game 3. 300 total yards rushing in B2B weeks 4. OLINE gave up zero sacks against a top DLINE yesterday 5. Gabe 2 long TDs in 2 games 6. Diggs is targeted and catching passes 7. Bernard so far is holding his own and then some. Definitely caused some on here major preseason angst 8. Team is healthy and one game more before the return of the Von 9. Leonard Floyd is balling 10. DLINE is getting pressures and sacks (12) 11. And of course, the Bills ended the Jets season in four plays. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillsUberAlles Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 (edited) The offense is a work in progress while rolling up 30 points a game and 400 yards a week. Let that sink in.

Dillenger4 Posted September 25, 2023 Share Posted September 25, 2023 I agree 100% with the OP. We look like a well rounded, complete football team. Miami hasn't seen a D like ours yet. Benford and White better step up vs the Phins but otherwise it will be a good game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
