PFT: Belichick sees Dramatic Improvement in Mac

Not open for further replies.
You’re in the minority. Burrow has been criticised for holding the ball too long ever since he entered the NFL.



I agree. One doesn’t get sacked 51 times due to the offensive line unless there’s some kind of monumental outlier with the players on that line. It may be true that Cindy’s offensive line isn’t good, but 51 sacks has to indicate the QB shoulders much of the blame.
 
Definitely not. It was the defense, not burrow.


RG III is wrong but really proud you sell your thinking out to anyone with Twitter

Tom Brady in his 2nd year in the NFL started 14 games threw 413 passes and was sacked 41 times.
Joe Burrow in his 2nd year started 16 games threw 520 passes and was sacked 51 times
Hmmm almost identical. Of course Brady wasn’t coming off a devastating knee injury either.
 
How did a thread on Mac end up being a discussion on Joe Burrow and Josh Allen?

I’m sorry. I fed into Ring 6’s wrongness. Apologies.

Because we have been infected by a Bills fan who had to post on a Patriot board because no Bills fans like him.
 
He didn’t take anyone to the SB. He got taken to the Super Bowl by his defense. They barely even made the playoffs at 10-7. Bills would have wrecked Cinci if not for a coin toss.
That’s an interesting statement considering the Bengals beat the team that beat the Bills….

Blaming Burrow for the Bengal's horrid O-Line is absurd.

In the postseason he was 3-1, completed 68% of his passes, threw 1105 yards, 5 TD's, 2 INT's for a 97 QB Rating... this despite getting sacked 19 times. Mahomes ranked second in postseason sacks, he had 9.

Burrow's line was crap, holding onto the ball is to be commended with a line you know is Swiss cheese, coming off a knee injury already and with the deep ball weapons you know they possessed. His yards per attempt was down from the regular season by almost a yard and a half, he clearly was getting the ball out faster but when your line is that bad it doesn't matter.

1) The Bills also beat the Chiefs last year. Whomped them, actually.

2) That circular logic has never worked in the NFL ever.

For example, the Bills beat the 07 Giants who beat the undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl. Yet the Patriots also beat the Bills, twice.

Bills have yet to prove they can beat KC when it matters. This could be the year though no more Hill
 
We have two DT regularly and sometimes a 3 man Front
I think Flowers god a fatty and judon would be nice
I don’t think god is a two gapper as we need to , i think this would fit him well

Fatukasi Trevis Jones brandon Williams
Oh Godchaux absolutely is a 2 gap run defender. That is his role.
Fatukasi was part of the worst defense in football. He got 10 mill a year too.
Jones is a rookie who didn’t seem to draw the kind of inteest to be taking about him as a top NFL DT.
Williams is 33 years old and under contract with a different team.

Judon- Barmore -Godchaux- Flowers is a much better way to go.

How did they do against them in the playoffs?

Actually, it works quite often. Not always, but quite often.

Until they prove they are capable of winning a championship game, you look foolish assuming they would have easily won it had they just made it.

Pretty well. Lost because of a coin toss. To that point, the NFL literally changed the playoff OT rules because of how unfair the ending was.

Bills scored more points per drive than the Chiefs in that playoff game. Chiefs simply had 2 more drives to work with (because of the coin tosses).

Actually, it works quite often. Not always, but quite often.

No it doesn’t.

It rarely works that way.

Like the Pats beating the Titans who beat the Bills and the Bills whomped the Pats twice (including the playoffs). Or how the Pats lost to the Dolphins (twice) yet the Pats beat the Falcons, who the Dolphins lost to. Or how the Pats lost to the Saints who beat the Falcons but lost to the Dolphins.

Circular logic almost never works in the NFL.

I wouldn’t call it “unfair.” Or you could argue every overtime ever played is unfair because the team that wins the toss has the advantage of being able to end the game before the other team possesses the ball. Given the flow of that game, you could argue the Bills were unlucky, although one of the two teams would need to be unlucky.

Regardless, the only perfect overtime rules would be to play-on if the game is tied at the end of regulation, with the next score winning, meaning the Chiefs, having just tied the game on a last second FG, would have kicked off to the Bills.

No, they lost because they gave up 42 points and couldn't kill 13 seconds.

LOLOLOL!!!!! "More points per drive"....? Now I have heard it all.... tell us, which trophy is it that they give to the team with the most "points per drive"?
Chiefs simply had 2 more drives to work with (because of the coin tosses).
So in other words, they outmaneuvered your team in regulation by managing the clock in such a way that they got an extra drive.

BTW, Cincinnati would have whupped you guys all afternoon.

Exactly

Definitely outcoached us. That’s for sure. We outtalented and outplayed them though. But it’s next to impossible to win when the other team has 2 entire extra drives to work with.

BTW, Cincinnati would have whupped you guys all afternoon.

Lol no.
 
Speaking of Buffalo, they are already in mid-season form after just a few days…
