I’m surprised how quickly people have forgotten that he pretty much coached them right out of the nfc championship tbh. He went full meathead at the most important time 1 Quote

Had the season panned out for San Francisco the way most people expected it to prior to the season, Buffalo could have been facing three top three teams in the space of a month. Talk about running the gauntlet. 3 Quote
Blackbeard Posted November 19 Posted November 19 How worried should we be about Detroit? I don't want to get way too far ahead of myself, but imagine meeting them in the SB. They've certainly shown the league a LOT of offense. I'd think most of their playbook is out, whereas I think Brady hasn't shown anything yet, with all systems go in terms of having all our WR out and running. How do we match up? Quote

He’s a step below some of the great defensive coaches imo. i think McD’s leadership/program value to the Bills has exceeded his value as a defensive mind, personally. The defense was downright bad last year at points and rather than the team giving up at .500, they rallied and got the 2 seed. Thats where McD is special among most NFL coaches imo. If you dont mind me asking, what puts him below the "great" defensive coaches? 3 minutes ago, Blackbeard said: How worried should we be about Detroit?

I simply dont believe Goff is good enough to win a Superbowl. One decent QB wins a Superbowl each decade, otherwise it's the top tier. His 5 INTs against Houston should be a concerning sign to the Lions. Good teams put the Lions away in those situations. Quote

They sneak by pretty good or better teams. We rarely ever get blown out…it’s gonna be a close game and I would pick Allen over Goff every single time in that situation Quote

But that guy can coach. Look at Goff--Boy Genius McVay couldn't figure him out (that Lombardy with Stafford's name on it is sinking their ship--20 wins since). Bills Lions will be the game of the year for the NFL Now will this game get flexed to Sunday Night? The Sunday Night game that week is Seahawks Vs. Packers. Quote
BigAl2526 Posted November 19 Posted November 19 21 minutes ago, Charles Romes said: Are we #1 anywhere? I've checked a number of power rankings and I haven't found any. Realistically, since the Lions were #2 of virtually everybody's power rankings last week and hung a 50 burger on the Jaquars, #1 was not going to happen for the Bills this week. Almost all the rankings have Buffalo at #2, though I saw one (Bleacher Report) that had Buffalo stuck at #3, not moving despite knocking off the undefeated Chiefs. Detroit was #1 of course, but they still had the Chiefs ahead of Buffalo at #2. The commentary reasoned that KC would wake up now and beat the Bills in the playoffs. Haters gonna hate. Quote
Mr. WEO Posted November 19 Author Posted November 19 1 hour ago, HappyDays said: Their OL in that game was as bad an OL performance as I've ever seen. Their RT Joe Noteboom made me long for Bobby Hart. Stafford has never been mobile, he needs decent pass protection to make plays. Stafford is on his last legs. 1 hour ago, GunnerBill said: I hate to be that guy.... but I did like the Campbell hire. I liked him as far back as his interim stint in Miami after Philbin got canned. I am a "hire a leader" guy at Head Coach though. It's "in" this year apparently and teams are after leaders and culture setters. Presumably after watching such non-entities as Brian Callahan and Dave Canales get Head Coaching shots last time around teams have realised having called a few good offensive drives does not a Head Coach make. I think the bias is still against former (good) players becoming HCs. Plus he came on as sort of a cartoon character. 57 minutes ago, Generic_Bills_Fan said: The NFC just doesn’t have any marquee matchups now that the niners aren’t what they once were. Lions don’t play chiefs or eagles or ravens, haven’t played the bills yet, got the Texans whose offense was completely suspect missing Nico and diggs. maybe Vikings lions was a big game? I don’t even know you can only play the teams on your schedule, they say. and Detroit is tearing opponents Defenses up. (wild stat: 6th in passing yards despite being 29th in attempts). They beat Az, Vikes, Texans, Packers. Bills beat AZ and Chiefs. They scored over 45 points in 3 of their last 6 games. Their Defense is 5th in least points allowed. They are, by far, the best team in point differential. 8 minutes ago, Jauronimo said: The Copenhagen Mermaids were #1 followed by the Stockholm Snow Monkeys at #2 and the Oslo Collaborators at #3.

TheFunPolice Posted November 19 Posted November 19 5 hours ago, Mr. WEO said: 49ers in free fall. Rams have 1, maybe 2 quality wins. Stafford has 13 TDs in 10 games. Scored 15 points vs Fins...with Nacua and Kupp back in the lineup. Purdy turned into a pumpkin... 49ers might look for a 1-2 year stopgap QB who can play that system... Quote

Like who? Purdy is 6th in passing yards, 6th in QBR, has as many TDs as Herbert, more than Daniel’s/Hurts/Geno/Stroud/Murray. Tell us who you would bring in who is already better than that? McCaffrey has played 2 games, Deebo, Kittles and Aiyuk have all missed games. Their Defense is mediocre. Purdy is hardly their problem. 1 Quote
Stretch Posted November 20 Posted November 20 I have to say though, Detroit has not pulled starters in the blowouts vs easy teams until very late and have been lucky to get away with no serious injuries. The Bills scored TDsin their first 5 drives against Jax and then took Allen out pretty early. Detroit left in Goff to pad his stats and run it up. So that helps explain the huge amount of blowouts as well. Campbell would be getting some serious $&@# if a starter got hurt. 1 Quote

SinceThe70s Posted November 20 Posted November 20 The two teams that have surprised me the most are the 49ers (5-5) and Steelers (8-2). I'm still waiting for the light switch to turn back on for the 49ers and bemused that the Steelers are at 8-2 with the two-headed QB. I look at the 49ers as more of a SB contender than the Steelers, but in the end %$@#% them both - Go Bills! Quote
