WTF
6 sacks today
After this much investment – this OL playing like this is ridiculous
its hard to believe Miami scored 0 points, seems like it should be lower, lol and smh
there going to have to make a move to shore up the OL. not sure why they dumped flowers?
You think he changes everything? He can’t play all 5 positions. The OL and the entire blocking scheme has been awful all day.
This is just awful. 😦
be patient!
Don’t be a dick dude.
Damn this fucking O-Line of ours!
Just go get cones out of the parking lot. I think they’ll do better
Sure as hell seems that way to me.
I’m trying to decide if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that there’s 15 more games to play . . .
Never thought of that way however I agree. I’m thinking that way now
what a stinker of a performance, i feel sorry for the fans that witnessed this shitshow in person, or online, or tv
I think the heat is starting to effect Buffalo. Did you see how long it took them to score?
its not really that hot, the rain cooled it down, lol
The way the Raiders are playing the Steelers in Pittsburg, we are going to get slaughtered there also.
I lost my stream. I think the universe is protecting me.
With 2 OCs, it seems like they could get the blocking to work.
One play at a time…. well that motto made this game a long……drawn out pain staking watch
Why isn’t Phillips playing like Rousseau?
throw it short to wilson, he will get us 36 points, lol
I guess you could say we lost our starter but to me, it wasn’t looking great when Tua was in. Not blaming him, just saying I don’t think that’s what caused this. Brissett played well enough.
No QB was going to do well behind this OL today
It wasn’t about QB play, the OL and blocking schemes were abysmal from the first play. If that doesn’t get corrected it’s going to be a long season.
This game was one of the options for the fest…
the players didnt give the home fans what they paid for, that was pitiful IMO
Be prepared to hear Deshaun Watson to Miami ALL WEEK.
Why?
Because that’s what the media does.
cant blame 35-0 on the media, criticism is fair game at this point
We might as well do it cause we suck like hell using them 1st round picks in the draft anyway!
agree that our first round picks havent come through for us yet
Wilson is on fire.
Should’ve kicked the FG.
this looks bad for Flores, he failed to have the team ready for their home opener, and failed to come up with a way to protect his starting QB
and o yea, lost the game 35-0
I was so hyped to watch this game all week long. Now, I’m just pissed off.
Miami should bring in cam newton, hes a little bit bigger and can hold up to getting sacked a little bit better
Meltdown, top to bottom…..
Sure hope they answer that shitshow!
That had to be bad if you went to the Bill’s bar.
Thank god I didn’t…..like you, the Universe spared me….lol

———————
“at this point”? The media has been criticizing us unfairly since before everybody had a cellphone. We don’t know how long Tua will be out, Brissett is clearly not the answer, so naturally, the media is going to CONTINUE to push Deshaun Watson to us. SMH
The 49er’s are 2-0 now. That pick getting worse, so far.
Well, ……………………….we are still tied for the division lead after 1 ugly game and 1 super shitty game. That is without getting technical about tiebreakers.
I have nothing to say.
I hate the taunting calls. I know if I was playing, I’d be running my mouth! 😆
I didn’t see the 4th quarter, but it didn’t seem like a beat down….. yet it was. Josh Allen has a way of just getting things done in a low key way. But guess as I say that a beat down on our OL there was.
I don’t know what you call a beat down but to me getting beat 35-0 at home is a beat down
Said it was a beat down. And no denying that. Just didn’t feel like that as you watched the game. Maybe it was the lack of big plays. And maybe just chugging along by the Bills is more scary.
Alabama has a much better OL than we do.
Alabama community College probably has a better O-line than we do
Beatdown, meltdown….wtf! On every level. That’s what’s baffling to me.
Never even felt like we were in the game to me
I don’t know. I thought we played a great halftime
Lol….doing what? I think that’s where I gotta ahead of you!
Agreed!
I’m beginning to think we drafted the wrong QB that year.
You could be right however no qb would of looked good behind that shitty o-line
It really wasn’t about the QB today. We can’t block anything. Then add the stupid plays, drops and turnovers and you get blown out. The Bills are also in a different class.
This game punched us all in the gut.
Dude, it had nothing to do with Tua’s performance today….that’s just hating.
He was fucking body slammed to the ground because we decided not to pick up the blitz from blind side. He probably fractured a few ribs he hit the ground so hard…..jmo, of course. Lol!
On the second series….geez, loueez
When did I say it was about Tuas performance today? Seriously, really need to drop an “F” bomb? I happen to be watching the Chargers game and Herbert looks really good
Just trying to figure out your left field comment on today’s game and how it left you feeling we picked the wrong guy in the draft…
…..I know I’m usually slow, but I still don’t get it.
Please, help me connect the dots.
Tua left after a couple of plays. How is this about Tua?
I am not making it about Tua, but Herbert sure looks better to me, just a gut feeling. Not trying to start anything, just my opinion.
Then, an odd comment right after a team loss that has me befuddled….to say the least.
Not sure how it’s pertinent to today’s game?
I also can’t figure this league out just yet. Outside of a few teams, who’s good and who’s bad?
So OD and I split up before hitting the seats. Ask if he wants anything and he says a water. After sitting there for a bunch of the 1st Q and it hits me he is drinking a bud light. Comment “guess you wanted a beer anyhow.”
After some talk turned out he’d taken over the beer in the cupholder of the sweet young woman next to him. And how sweet was she…. she never said a word. Also refused OD’s $20 to pay for it.
You’re a horrible chaperone lol
OD works it all out on his own. He’s a great guy to hang out with.
Don’t try to pin this… lol
Spin
Go to a game with OD sometime. He’s got seasons and it is a cool experience.
OD is not allowed to be left alone anymore. Sheesh OD
When was he? Lol!
Maybe not alone necessarily but certainly unsupervised
That’s a bit unfair. Dude just drove from his place today, saw the majority of the game and is on his way back. That’s a tough day. And works out for him….. he got a free beer. 🙂
I think we’re all playing, stangerx….I hope we are!
I’m just playing
Stanger I know OD, great guy. I’m totally joking around. You are a stand up guy as well. Nothing but love
Bookman, Herbert is very good but also having a tough time today. Our team’s performance was not about QB, we can’t compete in the trenches on offense. There is no time to do anything.
I am just saying I think Herbert is better than Tua, regardless of happened today.
Fair enough but we’ve got worse problems than QB. If you can’t block you can’t run your offense. Nothing has changed on this front in years.
I like Herbert a lot as well. I would have been happy with he or Tua
The obvious must so obvious that some can’t see the obvious! Lmao!
We sucked ass today!!!!
I think the defense competed today with zero support. They’re not dominant or anything but they can compete. Our offense was horrible today on so many levels. We might be too young.
Even the defense sucked ass early in the game but at least they played better after that
D looked pretty and they got put on a short field all day long. Should have never went for that first fourth down. It snowballed quickly and everyone started pressing the rest of the way.
Yeah if the offense competed today we would have at least been in a game. They obviously could not do much of anything.
So many PIs and dropped INTs…those are at a minimum missed opportunities and NOT winning football.
Didn’t think the D played to its paper potential….lol!
If Tua has fractured ribs he’s probably out at least 3-4 weeks. But with this OL and the drops it doesn’t really matter. This team better improve individually really fast or this season is not going to be good. Brissett hung in there and played tough but also had no chance. 40 pass attempts for 169 for 4.2 YPA. That’s awful and it’s all on the blocking.
We went with a very young Oline so they either have to go through some growing pains or we picked the wrong guys it’s still too early to tell.
Yep!
At least TK and on his throwing side, so pain might be more to overcome. The proper force on a rib causes it to snap. My best guess on Tua.
When I snapped my rib, I heard it, but didn’t feel it right away. I was like, wtf, what just happened? You could tell he felt it.
Mine got sore within 24 hours, then knew they snapped. Ultrasound confirmed.
They said x-rays were negative on his ribs
Torn rib ligaments might be worse..and on throwing side.
That’s good news. Probably pain and bruising. That said it doesn’t matter if we don’t improve up front. The Bills are good and we’re going to face other good defenses this year.
LOL, at least we’re not as dumb as the Houston Texans…
At this point, you have to question the leadership. Why is our OL always terrible but we let go OL players like Flowers? Why are we on the third set of OCs and OL coaches in 3 years? Why did we keep so many WRs on the team when we can’t find even decent O-Linemen? Why aren’t the guys we drafted at OL better by now?
Buffalo played terribly…and beat the shit out of us. NE played terrible with a rookie QB…and the defense saved our asses. This team is almost as bad as any team in the NFL. Good teams don’t get destroyed at home without scoring any points. I don’t want to overreact…but this is Year 3 and it looks just like Year 2 but worse. We got beat even worse than last year! The problems I saw last year…look EXACTLY the same as last year. This team is supposedly big on accountability…time to pay the piper. Flores team suck until further notice.
I’m not going to disagree, just say let’s see if there’s an answer to that shitshow.
Flowers was nothing special and it’s not like he would have made a difference today. He has not been great in pass protection his whole career
True, but the back end of our WR group isn’t that special either. Why keep average WRs when your OL is terrible?
We’re 1-1 and that is all I wanted out of the first two games. Was pretty darn sure we’d lose to the Bills, even if didn’t expect in today’s way. Let’s see what happens. This D can put it together against most teams even if seems not the Bills.
They said X-ray (Tua’s rib) was negative on the radio, but he will getting an MRI tomorrow
A big possibility is cartilage tears. Those are a bitch. You feel OK generally and then just one wrong twist or move brings searing pain.
Yep, and you guess on throwing side will have plenty of times to prove that theory. Yikes!
On the bright side at least Zach Wilson sucks monkey dick
Knew this wasn’t going to end well. Very sad whatever happened.
https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2021/09/19/us/gabby-petito-missing-sunday/index.html
It was a foregone conclusion, but at least now they have a crime, and can nail the guy once they catch him
Yep — when the boyfriend won’t talk what good outcome is there?
I’m thinking he’s no longer among the living. May never know what happened.
How did the O-line regress so badly in year 2? We basically have the same damn line, is it Deiter not making the right line calls or is he just bad at helping the other guys? Karras being gone and Deiter replacing him is the biggest change, otherwise the O-line is intact, right?
No, we keep changing up our starters.
It was Jackson, Kindley, Deiter, Hunt and Davis today. They pulled Davis after some uneven play and put Eichenberg in at RT. Every O-line rotates guys in and out though. It was Jackson’s first start, but Davis started at RT last week. Eich started at LG last week too I believe
Yup, we keep changing up our O-Line, and that includes starters.
Kindly and Jackson were taken to the woodshed in camp. How could they be worse? They were supposed to take the jump.
And it’s year 3, by the way.
Our first two drives the Bills really threw off our entire protection scheme with their unique and unprecedented use of rushing an extra guy off the edge. It was so confounding we gave up 2 sacks and a QB hit in our first 3 pass plays.
I’m not sure who the defensive genius is on the Bills who came up with this concept of ‘rushing an extra guy’, but wow, give that guy a medal.
Those first two series were brutal. Free rusher after free rusher coming in.
I’m glad you explained it because I was as lost as our OL. I was looking under my coach to see where those guys were coming from. I wish we had guys like that!
The play where Tua got hurt was just horrible blocking by Davis. He completely whiffed on the DE in a one on one matchup. Inexcusable
Davis went out. Could he already have been injured?
No he was in and it was early he got hurt later. Inexcusable play.
Not sure if Davis was hurt before that play but Tua certainly wasn’t. I think Jesse Davis might have gotten his feeling hurt on that play though. lol
If he wasn’t hurt, then maybe we should try hurting him before the game and see if that helps…
M – Year 2 for Jackson, Kindley and Hunt. Year 3 for Deiter and year 5 for Davis
You play the best 5, regardless of experience… and you allow them to gel together. It’s no wonder there’s no cohesiveness on our O-Line, bud.
Methinks the experiment with co-OCs should end right now.
What does that have to do with blocking? The players are getting beat over and over.
I dunno… perhaps a difference?
SAME PAGE is what we need to be doing.
The rules and the refs are ruining this game we love. It’s becoming unwatchable.
LMAO @ Kong!
I said early in preseason, I’d like to see us pick 5 guys and let them develop some chemistry instead of going all training camp constantly mixing and matching.
Part of the problem the 1st two weeks has been guys just flat out getting beat one on one, but there have been numerous times where our communication was clearly not there as guys are doubling defenders and leaving free rushers.
And this is what happens when ya have co-OCs.
we don’t matchup well against the Bills, Josh allen has owned us
It’s 1 loss in the column, no big deal, move on get ready for the raiders,
Damn right, Brother! Gotta have a short memory and move on to the next.
We didn’t lose because of Josh Allen this week.
They should look to add a veteran or two on the OL before the trade deadline.
at least that’s the noise i’ve been hearing
Tua has bruised ribs, x rays negative, i’ve had bruised ribs before, you can’t breathe without excrutiating pain, they say bruised ribs is more painful than broken ribs
I have had both and they both suck
M13, you’re barking up the wrong tree with Co-OCs. It’s not play-calling or game planning, it’s lack of execution mano-a-mano. We can’t block, we have drops and we have dumb penalties at the wrong time. That’s on the players.
wow, horrible clock management by dallas, lol
The NFL should change their brand logo to the yellow flag. LOL 😦
Herd, I think you may be right.
Most of our OL is very young and they’ve been mixing and matching where these guys play almost since Flores came here. Now that may work for the defense but it doesn’t for the offense. As a coach, you should know how your OL is supposed to look and have an idea pretty quickly what a guy can do. It hasn’t happened here and a journeyman OL being a starter 5 years in is what happens from it. Davis is a lifelong backup being forced to play as a starter. It’s a huge reason our OL sucks. Set the best 5, play them in the same spot, maybe have better blocking. It’s not a new concept.
I agree. We know the guys have, let a group of them develop together and maybe they can be a bit more than the sum of their parts. As it is, we keep moving bad players all over the place, and our bad players suck one on one, we suck at setting our protections, and we suck working together as a unit.
There is something to that. We’re too young and new. None of these guys have done much together. The core has to mature and less churning has to happen.
It was a bad day but we’re 1-1. We’ll see.
Yep, still a lot of season left to play
I miss football from back in the day. Because of money, sports is becoming less about entertainment and more about dumb rules.
We are a soft ass team!
Every time Flores tried to show strength, we wilted like a virgin flower!
Oh and I’m really fuckin glad nobody wanted to draft that inaccurate QB from Wyoming! Fuck him!
Well he did only complete 51.5 pct of his passes today for 179 yards. LOL
Like he needed to do more against or ineffective OL!
Jesus fuckin dropped passes Christ!
Sorry just finished the game! Even though it was over 2 hours ago on the DVR!!!!!!!
That 1st Wilson drop was so huge. That would have been 1st and goal to go. If we score it’s 14-7. Maybe it’s a different game at that point.
The Parker drop was 7 points.
The Grant fumble was inside the 10.
The 4th down stop cost us 3 points (even though I was ok with the call)
All that was the 1st half. Who knows how the game plays out if we get points on just two of those possessions…all within our control…
Where are you WIll Fuller? Cause Wilson just ain’t doing it. I’m ready to start Preston if he’s healthy.
Preston played today.
Guys, stop!!! Did you watch the game today? Did you watch us upfront on offense? Stop looking for things other than what it is. We can’t block our plays.
I was at the game today. Was saying would like to start him over Wilson.

————-
Are you absolutely certain about this? I mean, we didn’t seem to be this dysfunctional on the O-Line last year, and we’ve certainly upgraded our personnel… at least on paper.
The OC (not the TWO) is the one who calls the plays, and that means the O-Line should fall in balance to the play-calling: it’s that simple.
Perhaps I’m wrong and you are right… but WHY have we taken a huge step back on our O-Line?
Soft team Bro!!!!!
Flores tried to show strength, and they wilted!!!!!!
Did you watch the game? Did the Co-OCs say whiff on blocks all day and we should be fine? LOL
I think we’re too young and/or simply not good enough. That’s gonna fall on Grier if it continues.
That said, maybe we’re all getting ahead of ourselves. We’re not there yet. I don’t really know. But Co-OCs is the least of my worries.
Yes, I watched the entire game, from start to finish.
And aside from a FG last week, we’ve scored a total of two TDs after two weeks in the books. NOT GOOD.
Tua rushed for one, and Tua passed for one… all last week.
I’ll give Wilson this.
He did start catching in the second half!
Fuck him for the first 2 drops!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Titans dropping passes left and right, lol
Ad kept running the ball!
Toughness!!!!!!!!!!
Henry is a beast
Even though Omar doesn’t see it 🤣🤣
The OL broke our new toy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is the really frustrating part of our oline woes. It’s impossible to evaluate Tua this way.
Not just the OL, the entire blocking scheme which involves everyone was piss poor. Every QB we’ve had since Tannehill was a rookie has dealt with this. Nothing has changed.
Tim, that’s on play-design. Who is our OC?
Stanger I posted above about just joking around. I know I haven’t been on here in a while. However that’s who I am. Just trying to have some fun. I saw no response while you respond to everyone else
Try an anti liberal post!
He will jump all over it!!!!!!
You do realize I’m not a liberal at this point I hope.
No huge deal at all Just felt like OD was getting picked on for being an older guy. And there were other partners in crime too. We’ll all be in our 70’s at some point hopefully.
He absolutely was being picked on for being an older guy lol
Just wanted you to know….. I’m not right lol however if I see a weakness, I’m going to strike. Please don’t ever take me seriously. I know not what I do
Lol
Tennessee showed GRIT!
We have none!
M – Think back to early last season. Fitz was uncanny at avoiding pressure, he was constantly stepping up in the pocket or moving to his left and right to avoid the rush. He really was magical sometimes last season. He masked a lot of bad play by the O-line. Tua didn’t/couldn’t do it as well as Fitz and that’s where his biggest issues were, he had trouble with the pressure that Fitz was able to avoid. I think he improved on that somewhat although today’s hit was rough coming from his blind side.
15 year vet VS a rookie?
Not that it shouldn’t improve!!!!!!!!!!!
NOBODY is blaming Tua, my friend. It’s our O-Line, and how it operates on any given play. Our OC has failed, IMO.
Soft brother!
The Fins are soft!
I’m not sure how a co-co has anything to do with OL play calls when reading a defense.
Are you saying the blitz (loved CKs version) wasn’t schemed for?
Wtf?
I’m trying to say you call the blocking at the line in context with the called play. I would think the call on the line at the snap is Most important.
I’m out.
Play design????????
The Fins are just plain SOFT!!!!!!!!!!
Fores gave them a chance to show toughness! And they wilted!!!!!!!!!!!!
I think we are going to get smoked against the Raiders
I’m expecting us to come out and look a lot better against the Raiders…mostly because there is nowhere to go but up, lol.
Seems that way. I’m gonna choose to remain faithful maybe we bounce back
Son always faithful. Unfortunately I’ll never get those 3 hours of my life back
Na! We will smoke the Raiders!
It’s just the Tough teams we will not beat!!!!!!!!!!!
And by “tough” I mean get down and dirty tough!
I hate to agree with you Bookman but I do.

Losing sucks. That is all.
Losing sucks!!!! Getting demoralized is one step above
Meaning it sucks while doing laundry 😪
Eeeek! Thanks for saying that. Last load is still in the washer. That would have been bad!
I got you lol
It’d be nice it the Mets could do me a solid and beat the Phillies
Not a baseball fan. But for our ape I root for the mets
lol, cheers
My problem with O line is I don’t even feel like any of them are anything you can build around smh
Possibly the rookie Liam
Like I mentioned earlier, there needs to be an answer to the shitshow.
Lucy, you have some ‘splainen to do’
Hopefully the explanation isn’t ” looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck ” probably a duck lol
M – I wasn’t blaming Tua at all. I’m kinda saying the O-line wasn’t really that good last year either, especially early on. I think they got better, but they’re not that good to start.
Well that was no fun. The OL issues were there last year. They showed improvement, but they were still not good. We had a couple veterans in the middle who helped even things out a little but this year it’s a bunch of really young guys who are learning on the fly. Davis is a a vet, but he simply isn’t starter level. The more he plays at one position, the more he gets exposed. Fitz was the difference last year. Also, the Bills have a damn good defensive front….not that it wasn’t still a bad performance from our OL…but Buffalo is a tough D up front.
***
This is why I haven’t been real big on the idea that this is a playoff team yet. This OL and offense need more time to grow before we’re beating the best teams. The OL specifically is just too young and inexperienced to compete at that level consistently, to me. The defense is damn close. The ST, I think, are good enough to compete at that level. The offense is nowhere close.
***
I’m really interested to see how this team comes back in the next game. We didn’t get to see how they would respond after the Bills kicked their asses last year. This time, we get to see what sort of leadership and heart this team has. Your HC can’t do it by himself. It has to come from the players.
Randy tell me who on this line is someone we can build around. Not saying we don’t have a couple or few, just wanting your opinion. I get on paper there’s a few that have potential however after today not so sure.
I feel this is worth remarking on again…
Today the Texans had a 3rd and 15, they picked up 14 yards, but a defender was offsides.
Instead of taking 3rd and 10, the Texans took 4th and 1 and punted…
All I can say is massage therapist
I bet the therapist would have made the right call there, lol.
And they were at mid-field. I mean, maaaaybe you can make an argument if they were at their own 1, picked up 14, and chose to punt there instead of running a play from the 6.
https://fansided.com/2021/09/19/texans-dont-understand-football-decline-penalty-can-punt/
LOL, the title…
Tua had no shot but recognizing a rusher off the edge or that extra guy is partly his responsibility. That was something that the Bills obviously had seen in film study and took advantage of it. The OL wasn’t giving Tua much of a chance, but he still has to get better too. He’s still basically a rookie, so I’m not saying he sucks….but he is still making rookie mistakes. He’s not managing the pocket very well, and I thought he would be a little better at that, frankly.
***
I thought Brissett did well, actually. He’s got nifty feet. He’s not the answer at QB or anything, but he’s a pretty competent backup. It would have been much uglier if he hadn’t avoided a number of sacks/tackles.
Capt,
Nice to see you again, btw! Actually, I think ALL the young guys have some talent. I think Hunt and Kindley could both be pretty good guards. I think Hunt MAY be really good. They both have some stuff in terms of technique I’d like to see them get better at, but I do think they show promise. Deiter has actually done okay so far. I’d like to see a little more from him, but it’s still his first year starting at C. I think Jackson has a ton of physical talent, but he’s just really looking lost this year. He looked just okay last year, but I think he was helped a lot by having a solid veteran playing next to him at guard last year too and a veteran QB who knew when to get the ball out. I thought he’d be more consistent this year, but he’s not. Still, he’s got enough natural talent to see how he develops. Eich has looked okay for a rookie. Not great or anything but holding his own for the most part. You always have those plays where you cringe watching rookie OL, but Eich is competing.
***
I know some folks like Davis, but I don’t think he’s an answer as a long term starter. I do think this team could benefit from having a veteran OL starting somewhere along the line to help lead them. But, it was obvious in how they’ve handled their personnel that they’ve decided to go with youth and take their lumps. I think this year is about really finding out whether or not any of these guys are more than what’s on paper, Cap.
Tua’s injury was all on Davis I don’t think he should be on the field again. It wasn’t an extra rusher he just missed the DE in 1 on 1 match up
Didn’t even get in his way.
Thanks for the response I like yourline evaluation, I’m usually fair headed on all thee above. Let’s hope they get it together quicker than later. Anytime you need a bucket, I got you however you can’t have the one I have over my head right now
Ken,
Yep, Davis has had a few of those already in 2 games…and Epenesa isn’t exactly a quick rusher. He’s not the sort of guy who should ever beat you around the edge like that. I’d really have no problem if they just put Eich in there and move ahead. But, the coaches may be worried they won’t have any QBs walking by week 8 with all that youth on the line….and want at least some veteran leadership out there. Who knows?
M13, play design? Hut hut hike defenders mauling the backfield, that sort of stuff? LOL
BBM/ Son,
Incredibly cool moment in Cincinnati today- Dodgers vs Reds.
The Reds TJ Friedl got his first major league hit with a HR today. Dodgers outfielder Mookie Betts realized the moment, and asked the fan (a Cincy fan)for the ball back, saying he’d get the fan another ball.
The fan didn’t hesitate, he threw the ball down to Betts who got the ball to the Cincy dugout.
Next inning, Betts gave the fan an autographed bat.
That is just awesome.
https://www.mlb.com/news/mookie-betts-trades-bat-to-get-tj-friedl-s-first-home-run-ball
All I want to know is about those Mets!! Need ape happy
2-2, Phillies have the bases loaded…pins and needles, lol
Mets escape
No wonder you go ape shit. Like Forrest Gump ” you never know what you’re going to get “
Mets up 3-2
Totally cool
If you’re bad at the POA forget everything else.
Imagine being a kicker like Sanders on a day like today. You have one kick to start the 2nd half, and that is literally all you did all day.
All the way to his bank account…. I get it.. it sucks ass they didn’t let you kick those field goals
Hopefully, no duck….
…..it’s going to be a long week!
The only thing I can really give the duck is….. it sheds water like no other lol
The metaphor for our take away streak staying in tact yippee
Hell yeah 24 straight
Lol….I think the record is around 70.
Quack, quack.
Good stuff takes the edge off. LOL

HOME SAFE AND SOUND!! Got up 5:30 AM. Walked dogs in total darkness. Kissed wife good-bye and was on I-75 south by 6:40. Drove over 600 miles round trip, including about 6-8 miles to find Young Stanger’s parked car. –WHAT an adventure!!

BTW, in all the dozens and dozens of times I’ve driven from north of Tampa to the Stadiumk, today was the first time I’ve seen a HUGE Gator on the portion of I-75 known as “Alligator Alley!” About 20 miles East of the toll station near Naples was this dead 9-Foot Gator laying on the side of the paved road with his head looking like it had been run over by a Mack Truck. I’m REAL sure the truck took some serious damage from hitting this beast!! Damn hard to see this dark green monsters in the night time in time to avoid hitting them. Thankfully my Honda Accord Sport wasn’t involved in this one!! (make that “monster.”)

Turned on WQAM for their post game show. The FIRST thing said by one of the commentators was “WHAT an ATROCIOUS PERFORMANCE BY OUR OFFENSIVE LINE–ABSOLUTELY INEXCUSABLE!!!!!” I listened to the back-and-forth for about 15 minutes, then I turned it off. Could not take any more of it. My impression, after the New England game, was that our O-Line woes had been somewhat addressed. – – – WRONG, Tonto!!! – – – WE STILL have fatal flaws in our offensive line that need to be fixed!! Seems like our GM is STILL part of the problem, NOT part of the solution to our decade long search to build a “Not so offensive” O-Line. WE DON’T HAVE THE RIGHT GUYS YET!!! And, until we DO have MORE of the “Right Guys,” we WON’T be winning, or even getting to, the PLAYOFFS. I FEEL SORRY foe ANY QB who has to play behind this unit for an entire game!!

GOTTA walk the Greyhound and get some shut-eye. My thanks to Young Stanger for another neat day that WAS NOT totally ruined by this horrid football performance. Sleep well, John.
Yep, today was embarrassing.
