It appears as if we wil be in a lot of shootouts this season. At least the games will be interesting and there is no pressure, no expectations this year just need to find our QB and the rest will take care of itself.
we beat the shittiest offense in the league thru 3 games.

Normally I would be sorry to hear something like this but Brett Favre is such a piece of shit I don’t care what happens to him to be honest. He’s slime - I don’t wish disease on anyone but I don’t have sympathy for a turd like him.

What about Michael Vick?

That Nabors catch is really nice. I had to slow it down to make sure his 2nd foot got down before his hand. His toes touch with his hand about 4" from the ground...that was nice

Same - fuck that dog killer - he didn’t get a long enough prison sentence. Just because he played for the Falcons doesn’t mean I have good feelings about Michael Vick, fuck anyone who’s involved in killing dogs.

Ya, he’s been fun to watch. Had 2 nice TDs against us in wk 2 but also gifted us with a 4th quarter drop that pretty much sealed the game for us, we all joked was his gift to his bro, Jayden. he’s gonna be a headache in the NFCE

I guess he doesn't realize the Eagles also won't pay what he's looking for.
He wants to sign at this point and he knows he won’t get what he wants so he is just looking for an “out“ now. just play your contract and make your $14M this year and if you do well you get a huge deal In a few months And take out a huge insurance policy just in case. I’m glad the Jets called him on it. If you don’t want to play, don’t play, but you only have yourself to blame. He’s just throwing money away at this point And if he doesn’t sign before week 12 he’ll be back at square one and start all over next year. Can’t see the forest through the trees.

He screwed himself over. Even playing very well with the remaining games he still may not get what he's looking for. He's dropping his own stock.

Which means he'll report in week 11 most likely.

That Bills defense got away with smoke and mirrors (and game scripts) the first 3 weeks with those key injuries at LB and slot corner. Add safety to that now with Rapp going down last night. They should get Taron Johnson and Terrel Bernard back relatively soon, which is a start.

Dominating performance by the Ravens, Bills were historically overdue for a blowout loss.

The Bills were beating up also rans so far. All the shit people were saying about the Seahawks and Steelers 3-0 record ( rightfully so, imo) could have been said about the Bills as well. But the national media was gushing over them like they had accomplished something special. Part of that was due to the ridiculous assertion that the loss of Diggs was going to somehow make Allen regress badly and the offense sputter. Now, I do think they will win their division rather easily and are still a contender in the AFC but the hype for basically winning the pre-season was a little over the top.
The injuries are what they are. Seems to be happening to everyone this year. Obviously, last night exposed those injuries but the outcome of that game shouldn't have been too much of a surprise other than it being as much of a blow-out as it was. Lamar and the Ravens almost always play their A game in the regular season vs. the other good teams. I expected the Bills to lose and wasn't all that surprised they did and you are right, Bills were due.

Bills didn't just lose. They got beat down in all phases. They'll be fine but the played the wrong team for their injuries and just in general got outplayed.

So after 4 weeks, the worst starting QB was Bryce Young. I guess Tua would be 31 since he got knocked out. 30...Trevor Lawrence? I did not see this happening. Jags are averaging 5.7 yds per carry on the ground and Trevor Lawrence I think is somewhere around the top 10 in big time throws and only has 1 Int and their offense sucks. Lawrence is only completing 53% of his passes. The Jags are 30th in first down conversion rate. I kinda think someone on the Jags is getting fired next time they lose.

Yeah, not entirely all just on Trevor but he has been wildly inaccurate on the simple throws at times. He has also been sacked 11 times already and has put the ball on the ground twice (fortunately hasn't lost one yet). The Jags, as a whole are just a bad franchise that seems to get in it's own way and there's lots of blame to go around. There will be wholesale changes coming but paying Lawrence 55 mil to be just kinda middling was not a smart business move. I don't care how much hype he has gotten. They still had him under control for 2 years. I know QBs get paid but they jumped the gun, imo.

Its not all on Trevor but his YPA is 6. The sacks are kinda bad but not an outlier. His completion percentage is an outlier.

I get that they are a bad franchise but they've lost 9 straight games after basically going 16-6. They had something and they got figured out.

Yeah, the YPA is pretty bad but looking at it, that has been something that was always an issue. Looking over his whole career, there's only a handful of games that even skewed that number upward. He's kind of a checkdown guy, all things considered. Maybe DCs have figured that out and say, make him beat us downfield and he just isn't consistently accurate enough. Not sure, just guessing here.
