My sign is High Fantasy with a Science Fiction rising and a Tolkien moon.

Go Bills.
Another case where I'm wondering if a one armed Spencer Brown is really more effective than RVD?

I saw the personnel and thought oh they have to be doing play action, gotta have the ball in Allen's hands on 4th down. I guess not.

I will give them that for the final 3 defensive drives of the first half, there was only 1 Bills offensive play in between them.

But still. It looks bad.

I think he's still hurt and playing through it. But if you can't move right I'd rather you not be out there

The Taylor Rapp situation has made me think differently about Taron and Bernard. They are in and out of the lineup and they don't always look like themselves when they are out there.

Does Shakir even run routes past 5 yards anymore? Like I remember times when they threw to him 15 yards down field. He was good at that too, he doesn't have to just do screens.

Yeah I was very behind on understanding what was happening with Rapp injury, so when I got caught up everything made a lot more sense with what I've been seeing from him this year.

Not that the defensive line looked bad today, but it's depleted so ylu could use more juice there
November 3, 2025 at 1:38 AM
My trade priorities changed completely today. Feeling better about safety and the passing offense, definitely worried about defensive line
November 3, 2025 at 1:36 AM
Maybe just needed time? The training camp injuries put him behind on learning the D and he's finally got it? Or possibly Poyer is actually helping him pre snap in ways Rapp didn't?

One of the players who I hoped with more experience could look a lot better by the end of the season. Looking great so far today, and made some nice plays last week too

That's what they always do though. Like I saw the statistic during the week accompanied with highlights and they were all shotgun. It's so confusing to me that it's that effective
November 2, 2025 at 10:56 PM
I was thinking about this earlier in the week... I don't know why they don't move Taron around more too? Like when you want 3 LBs out there could you not move Taron outside or to safety?

Both touchdown in Chargers Titans were scored by a defensive player. Both touchdowns was scored when the chargers were on offense. It's 7-7.

Do you think Poyer can make a bigger difference than expected?

I know he's not the athlete he once was. But the coverage has looked out of sync with poor communication, and maybe he can help with that. It didn't look as bad last week, but not sure of that was the Bills or the Panthers.

Yeah when I was watching live and saw the blitz I was like damn they threw it right to where we are short now. But bishop played that wonerfully, forcing it back inside then coming in to help.

"We're going to get the number 1 pick next year and we'll get the QB, I promise."
October 28, 2025 at 1:38 AM
My guess was he was mad because he wanted to go for it on 4th down?
October 27, 2025 at 3:09 AM
He's so good at it that they think every target has to be in the 5 to -5 range. Like they do realize they could throw it to him 15 yards downfield and he still might get yards after catch right?
October 26, 2025 at 10:04 PM
Maybe they could have done more at safety, but also McD talked up Rapp as the QB of the secondary then the coverage looked disjointed all year.

Maybe they could have done more at WR, but I also feel the design of the passing game beyond 5 yards has been pretty uninspired.

I think his process is sound if the execution doesn't always work out.

It's hard for me to distinguish front office/coaching issues, I feel like they are very tied together.
