Sam LaPorta, going off.
Zack Moss looking like a Taylor reincarnated.

yet the bills can’t use their highly touted first round pick tight end and still cannot find a running back to provide them with a consistent game.

These are valid questions that need to be asked by Sean McDermott about his offensive play callers.

Two 6’4” tight ends that can really run and not one seam pass? All running plays out of shotgun? No bootlegs for Josh freaking Allen! Not one designed run for our speedster Hardy? Not one designed run for Josh Freaking Allen?

Elam didn't do anything today that said to me "he should have been active" these past 4 weeks. That being said, if you're going to bench a guy for 4 weeks and then say "go shadow Calvin Ridley", I'm not sure what people expected other than what we saw today.

only logic would be that both elam and ridley are 6ft 1in

kirk is 5 ft 11, like most of our other cb's




of course that logic makes no sense as ridley is clearly the jags best wr

But Rousek and Biro should play before Girgs and Okposo?




Well, guess not.

That's cool, hey I can't help Elam got beat out by a 3rd rounder a 4th rounder a 6th rounder and a UDFA. Tells you something.

he was the only first rd pick on the bills of course


and he looked the worst

if the wr's were not so wide open, perhaps elam would not have had 11 tackles

- homiedclown


Yes he did not look good. But so did the secondary. They looked out of position and not ready to play.

I just never get why its 3rd and 4 and our corners are 10 yards off the receivers and we are playing 2 high. Frazier is gone and thats still here.

playing soft on the wr's led to many first downs on 3rd downs today

they were easy dinks and dunks for surfer boy

I'm sure this was said about Tage too.


They have to play more than a few games or a season to find out

I do understand what you are saying, but for some reason they don't see it that way, guess like Biro and Rousek he hasn't earned the right.

It really does not matter who is playing corner, if Milano is done for the year and jones misses a bunch of time the bills are done. there is no depth at LB.
Loosing white last week and Milano is week pretty much puts the wrap on 2023 for me.

The drive where it took Allen 3 plays with 3 minutes to go was the greatest QB play I have ever seen.

There is obviously a problem between Allen and Dorsey, this roller coaster style of games the last 2 years has been daunting.

Can Allen check out of that crap? Or would that just get him in trouble? Confuse the team?

There is a set play like that every game that gets used so much causing dramatic momentum swings.

It’s brutal

#Bills star LB Matt Milano suffered a fractured leg and is feared to have suffered a season-ending knee injury in today’s loss, sources tell me and @MikeGarafolo. They are checking on the ACL. MRI coming, but missing the rest of the season is likely.

Neither biro (who cleared waivers) nor rousek bring 625 games of nhl experience to a very young inexperienced squad

Yes and Eric Johnson and Clifton bring more winning and playoff experience than Girgensons and Okposo. So what's your point.

The older the bottom of your roster (worst players) are, the better your team is.

Anderson over Levi would be invaluable.

Nobody had a chance to win a spot on L4 when they resigned OkSloPoke, CantSkate28 and Jost.
It was written in stone, contrary to Adams proclamation that no Prospects would be blocked.
Add in Greenway table banging and Olofsson having zero trade value, along with Krebs...well that completely blocked the entirety of the bottom six.
Left only Quinn's spot open...thank goodness Benson has some balls.

I seriously don't know what theFront Office is doing.

Thought for sure trading for Greenway meant they were moving on from one of the senior citizens. Even more so after they held off on extensions. Disappointing. Seems they know what they need to do to improve, then get cold feet.

Didn’t we learn anything from eichel and surrounding him with bad influences and leadership?

No, they are putting Levi in a similar situation.

Your bar for veteran leadership is too low, the players on the roster are bums.
