[DJ]

Ouch, that stings.

Ouch, that stings.

Not as bad as being a contender and getting beat at home by the Chargers.

Great game Thursday.

 

[fightinredantz]

Let’s keep in mind that the Bills are the 3rd best team in the AFC and we have a very young offense that is up and down and a defense that is a shadow of what we thought it would be.

At the same time very disappointed in the performance tonight. Lock started out ok, but seemed to start pressing as the game started to slip away. The Defense had no answer for anything the Bills wanted to do.

The last 2 games of the year will be games that I think we can win.

So here is why I been saying Elway needs to go
Can’t even find a kicker to make extra points
That’s a fail in the pro personnel dept
This whole organization reeks of incompetence
I don’t blame Vic he’s can only work with what the FO has provided him.

I think Russolino was a McMahon thing more then Elway. Elway didn’t veto the move either though.

Sounds like he did kick well in practice.

I’d rather have josh Allen then Chubb Lock Fant and Jeudy

so yeah 3 first round picks to NYJ for Trevor

not sure what is wrong with Jeudy but he looks
Like he quit and does. Not Like Lock

 

[Draft Crazy]

Jeudy loves Lock. They are very close. Jeudy really isn’t healthy right now. Playing on a bum ankle. Jeudy will be much better next year, imo. He will grow a lot from first to second year. I’d take Josh Allen in a heart beat.

 

[Mingo]

My problem with yesterday is I've seen Bronco team less talented get beat by wider margins, but this Bronco's team gave up with the Bills were still lobbing bombs downfield. It was the beaten look that pissed me off.

One thing I don't understand is so many of Lock's catchable balls get dropped - that's poor coaching preparation.

I still like Fangio for some strange - unidentifiable reason. Jeudy has a hole to climb out of in my esteem.

 

[Draft Crazy]

I think Jeudy needs to mature some as a person. Right now he is a little more flash, he needs to get back to the things he is great at. I think he will grow and mature a lot this offseason. He also hasn’t been healthy since the Falcons game. He can’t turn and run on his ankle and the type of game Jeudy brings to the table his ankle is pretty important. Jeudy was thrown into a starting role as a rookie with zero experience which unusually this year consisted of barely a camp and no preseason. Tough situation to be in as a rookie.

Fant looked good yesterday. Gordon looked good but still wasn’t use exactly the best. Gordon and Lindsay had even number of carries and hard to run when your down but Bills matchup had the type of feel to me where Gordon should have had 20 carries and Lindsay 7.

Whatever josh Allen did this past offseason, lock needs to do. He throws dimes now

 

[CEH]

Jeudy had 4 catches for 66 yards
They should be a game total it’s the last 3 games.
If he’s injured sit him down
Right now perception is really
I heard he has like 8 drops in 90 targets
That’s terrible if true

I hope he progresses like Allen because yesterday Allen was Superman.
Is Lock making the same mistakes or is this just learning the game and new looks.
Same mistakes indicates a processing issue.
New situations would be getting game experience

Allens next 26 games 47 TDs 12 INts

so let’s not go there

 

[Orange Crush77]

Lock is still missing open guys, but in fairness to him our o line is terrible and giving him no time. His timing is off. I’m on the fence with lock

 

[Orange Crush77]

As far as elway goes, I’m on the fence also. He pulled off one of the greatest capers ever in landing Manning, and we were able to ride that wave to huge success and a championship. But ever since Manning retired, it’s been a ghost town.

 

[CEH]

Next year should be everyone back unless Elway wants to step away.

 

[Draft Crazy]

I think everyone really should be on the fence with Lock. We really don’t know until next year.

Hey- You were the one that wanted Jeudy so bad.

I think Jeudy will be fine. You give up on players way too fast.

Let’s cut them all and start from scratch mentality.

I still remember when someone at KFFL gave up on DT in year three then he proceeded to catch 15 passes vs the Vikings and went in to be great for years after. Sorry but Jeudy is ‘t posting huge numbers in this offense with hardly any experience and all the attention with Sutton out. Yes, he needs to get better but lets give him another year before we throw the towel in. A healthy Sutton and a full offseason will be very beneficial to him.

so let’s not go there

I think the moral of the story is that QB’s can take a few years develop. I don’t think the moral is Lock is going to end up as good or better then Allen since his numbers are similar/better after two years.

Brief synopsis from me

Throw game out the window.
Shurmur no deep passes to practice I think even after 15 starts Lock has those dunk passes down. Develop his deep ball. This is a weird year but, after 14 games your game plan yesterday wth.
Picking 16-18 is disappointing for a team that needs big upgrades. I think we need to draft two corners not one.

Coaches FO issues

Stay the course until ownership is settled.
Unless they retire Elway Ellis aren't going anywhere unless Broncos are sold
Fangio I like him but, not good gameday HC. I'd rather wait to go new staff after Ellis/Elway are gone they aren't good at hiring right HC's of late.
Shurmur don't like at all but, we need stability more vs switching again
Lock is guy in 21

My hope for 22/23 is

Broncos are sold (Sorry Bowlens we need deeper pocket ownership, no family squabbling which I think will never end with Bowlen family)
FO is cleaned out top to bottom seems things are getting long in the tooth we need fresh blood new energy coming out of dove valley
