    Finding a few positives, again

    1.) Kincaid is going to be a major, major threat for years to come. He's going to be like no other TE the Bills have ever had. He runs routes like Kelce. He has great hands. The fumble sucked, but it was also a great play by the Cincy defender. He will learn to protect the ball next time.

    2.) Dane Jackson has played relatively well. Haven't really noticed a drop off in the outside coverage, and he's been good in run support.

    3.) Shakir has emerged as someone else Josh can trust. Did you know he's been targeted 19 times this year and caught 18 of them? C'Eh pointed that out to me the other day and I was astounded.

    4.) The new fat guy they signed only played a few snaps, but he looked like a mountain out there when he was. When he tossed Burrow like a rag doll, I smiled.

    That's it.

    I am excited about Kincaid and Shakir the most. That's about it.

    I feel like the defense (although far from perfect) has played quite admirably with these injuries

    the bills aren’t losing because of them
    I came.
    I saw.
    I conquered.

      I agree. We’re trashing McDermott for his D but his D is still top 10 in points allowed. For reference that’s better than the Eagles, Bengals and Dolphins to date. 51 points better than the Dolphins btw 156 to 207.

      That’s not bad and is actually very good when our injuries are taken into consideration.

      We definitely should trash McDermott but it should mostly be for his egregious mishandling of the offense/Dorsey.

        Agree on all points.

        Linval got plugged in and played very well as did Rasul Douglas.

        Kincaid if he stays healthy is gonna become an all time great Bill (hitting the weight room in the off season to add 15 pounds would go a long way).

        Shakir can play, let’s see if Dorkey remembers that more often.

        it makes me wonder who else on the roster can play but hasn’t gotten an opportunity?

        They’re not using Harty/Sherfield at all. Maybe they can play. Why not try Isabella and Shorter?

          I'd probably add Torrence in there. I think he'll only get better and they have a future all pro there to anchor the future ol.

            With more familiarity, Joseph and Douglas will be major additions to the defense. But the poor play-calling on offense has no solution in sight. Thankfully the rest of the AFC East sucks as well.

              Agree it's been better especially just recently with the 2nd half of the Bengals game.

              3 points total 2nd half they couldn't put us away.

              That gives me some hope.

                Joseph is beastly .... loved a few of his plays .... big bad Linval I'll take two more of that guy.

                  As bad as we have sucked so far, the division can still be had.

                      Gotta be the target right now .... and it's doable .... just stop with the injuries.

                        Shorter is on IR not sure when and if he comes off.

                              The defense needs to start generating TOs again which will take some pressure off Josh.
