Would just be a straight switch if Tre is donezo… right?

Von for Tre. 

No, they need to bring a DB up from Practice Squad

Yup.  This was the game I needed.  Not because the Dolphins were world beaters, but Josh knew he had to score almost every drive to win this game and he didn’t spaz out.  If anything, Josh was more conservative than I expected.  I need to see that he could contain it in the right situation. 
 

I would argue this was their best game since the 13 seconds or the Pats perfect game.  Considering how our defense is playing, I’d say we are in our best position in years.  
 

What sucks is, the Ravens and Chiefs have cake schedules now.  Their divisions are crap and have much easier paths to the one seed.  But I can say I’m not afraid of anyone. 

Hell yes! Virgil is back on track...

 

I can say my pessimism has detoriated too.

Let's get to the playoffs my dude. 

Id rather have Tre

I’d always take the highly touted pass rusher but it’s for sure debatable.  If your 4 man rush is eating OLs alive playing DB gets a lot easier

Being humble is way better. Wear your Bills gear and walk with a swagger. 

Walk with a smile. Play speaks for itself.

 You are correct though.

Still think McDermott is a chump. 

He's proven me wrong so far. I was banging the table for a change. 

 

He has this defense playing at another speed, gear, and level. They are dominating the line of scrimmage. When is the last time we've seen that? The front four is getting consistent pressure. When have we seen that? He is masterfully throwing in timely blitzes. When have we seen that? He is disguising defenses. When have we seen that? 

 

Just really fun to watch thus far. Exciting to see and add in Miller. OMG...

2020 we had a good DL. Underrated. Fraziers defense caused us to avoid the pressure. Tampa 2 disguised read and react defense keeping the game in front of us letting speed kill us every time.

You've seen all that the last time the Bills were healthy.

That's why I'd take a tre. A premium CB isn't easy to find and we have a DL firing on all cylinders.

Only thing I'm angry about is the fact that McDermott didn't take over the defense 2 years ago 

Well, it was two years ago the Pegulas and McD were talking Frazier up as a head coach candidate so they tried!

That first half was about as close to perfect as you'll ever see an NFL QB.

 

Josh was so impressive today. Laser focused and executed at the highest level. I saw no panic, uneasiness, no hero ball, etc. 

 

He was like a surgeon out there leading his team confidently down the field. His "it" factor was as high as I've seen it today. He was truly elite!

 

With that said, every Bill and coach contributed to this win. It was a total team win from top to bottom. 

 

Team has to stay focused and take care of business one game at a time. No more big injuries...

But they were hardly healthy all season. Also, I feel they are much better at containing the run. Bernard has magnified this D to another level. Hyde back is huge. If Elam can produce this will be big too.

Not gonna lie; I was scared about the game.

 

The big win today was the best Bills win I can remember (my memory is corroded by booze, but still).

 

Of note, I was at my friend Dave's (street name: True Hustla, Bonafide Playa) and drinking copious amounts of 90-proof whiskey. Dave said this to Josh before the game:
 

"No turnovers today. This ain't no bakery."

How prescient he was. Josh's discipline was outstanding. I hope he is learning that playing smart can still lead to big stats and will lead to big wins and help cement his rep as an elite winning QB.

 

We are a well-rounded team — loving the defense and strong run game — full of talent and confidence and can beat anyone.

Can someone start the Bills/Jaguars pregame thread. I am absolutely giddy that I'll be drinking beer at 8:00 am and I don't have to hide it. 

[Warriorspikes51]

Allen showed impressive discipline on one drive where he took a sack and ran OB rather than force a throw into good coverage

And Allen is letting the defense rest as well as maybe discuss some of what they see Miami doing and gives d a chance to come up with what will work best against what Miami is doing.

This may be a little off topic, but was Hailee at the game? She seems to be good luck. LoL

Someone posted a thread with the betting line already.

Heck, we had two easy INTs we dropped and a forced fumble they recovered. Could have been even more lopsided.

 

 

I don't know how you drop a Tua pass, he throws "the most catchable ball in the league" and that goes for both teams. It lands like a soap bubble.

I believe it’s all about me.

 

For the 3rd consecutive week, I drove to my local and downed a Bud Light Lime while walking the 5 minutes to the bar.
