And if everything goes the way you think it will, all of this complaining will be moot in about two weeks when the bad players who aren't doing their jobs are off the team.
Except this isn't necessarily true. The idea that the crappy players will be gone after being given a chance is only even a little likely if the coach already thinks they're crappy and is merely given them a chance to prove him wrong. I think it's entirely possible....nay, probable, that these players are where they are because the coach values them. There simply any compelling reason to assume Krueger is willing to adversely affect the team for weeks in order for bad players to prove they're bad.

Yikes. Certainly hope for the best.

Saw a report today that Collins will be pleading guilty and his son will change his plea to guilty.
After all of the bluster about fake news. And a re-election.
Odds of Trump letting him off the hook with a pardon?
It's almost as if calling something "fake news" is code for "it's true."

You still on the playoff bubble or bust mentality re: the GM this season? Just checking in.
Yup. If this team isn't in the low-90s I'll want him fired. Expect? No. But if we toss another 70-point stinker, I don't think he's as safe as the conventional wisdom holds.

What it tells me in actually is that Pegula has given Botterill a 5 year assurance. Everything about the apparent pacing of their timeline leads me to believe this.
If there's not tangible improvement, I don't care what Pegula told him, Botterill isn't seeing 5 years.

Good thing we weren't starting at ground zero then when Botterill took over.
And seriously I don't get the obsession with Krueger's words. Find me a coach that comes in and says "We're going to play conservative, laid-back hockey and let the other team make fancy plays that result in goals." They all know what they're supposed to say.

Now that the roster looks pretty set, this is what I'd go with:
Skinner-Eichel-Rodrigues
Olofsson-Johansson-Reinhart
Vesey-Mittelstadt-Sheary
Girgensons-Larsson-Okposo
Dahlin-Miller
McCabe-Jokiharju
Gilmour-Ristolainen
I expect things to look considerably different from what I'd do.

Interesting that Pilut got assigned to Rochester. Does that mean he's about ready to come back from surgery? That'd be a little ahead of schedule, no?

Receivers play DB all the time when there is a badly thrown ball. Zay watched him catch it. He should be cut already.
Now you've moved the goalposts. If your argument is Zay should make an effort, okay, whatever. But the INT isn't on him. It's on the horrible decision and underthrown.

And that is way different from saying that 2 non calls that would have resulted in 1st and goal and an int that wasn’t would have no effect on the outcome of this game.
Whatever, I already question your take on football from our earlier Zay Jones discussion.
???
Zay Jones is terrible, but that INT was a Peterman-like toss. Just awful. Allen played like bad Jay Cutler today, including that throw.

And the beat goes on.
Do you really believe that if Brady received that head shot that the Bill would not have been ejected?
Of course he'd be kicked out! But that's way different than saying the refs determined the game when the Bills threw 4 INTs, had a punt blocked and returned for a TD, and tossed away challenges and timeouts like the coach was allergic.

So, is there any doubt that officiating effects the outcome of NFL games?
that one was egregious.
The Bills have nobody to blame but themselves. The refs didn't turn the ball over 4 times.

The only bad call I saw was the missed intentional grounding, which didn't affect anything really.
And the lack of ejection. But yea, not a bad game call overall.

If we had 3 TOs, we'd have 1 more desperation crack at this thing.

Barkley barely has more arm strength than Peterman, but he's accurate when able to set his feet

I don't know why NE stopped running it, but thanks!

Should go for it. Also, a TO or 3 would be useful about now.

HOW IS THAT NOT INTENTIONAL GROUNDING?

Please also find a new punter.

The Bills might lose this game, but wow they’re showing the NFL the Pats are NOT the dominant team people have been claiming then to be. Let’s go Buffalo!!
Most teams don't have our defense.
Please cut Zay Jones.

I like going for the TD there. No guarantee Barkley can get you that close again.
Same. You don't beat NE with field goals. Also, I liked our defense having them backed up even if we missed.
-
This is easily Daboll's worst game as OC. And we can cut Zay Jones whenever.

Just remember, the QB injury is your fault.
Now, please somebody rip Brady's right shoulder off.
