    Defense gets a solid A. I hope I can give them the same score (or similar) after the KC game.

      Someone needs to tell ARTIE BURNS he isn't in MIAMI anymore.
      Chill Out and no one wants to see you w/ your helmet off. Not his first incident. Last year he got away without a penalty for taking off his helmet.

        They didn't. They spent a 1st round pick on Josh Allen...
        Actually, my post was NOT about you...but, if the shoe fits, feel free to lace that &!+€# up and wear it.

          What? Khalil Mack, with less than a week to learn a new defense, had a strip sack forced fumble that he also recovered, and also had a pick 6 interception as well. If not for T.J. Watt's monster performance, Mack would have a legit claim to defensive player of the week.
          Steeler teams featuring stat-driven, me-first, fantasy-football-darling diva types such as Antonio Brown & Le'Veon Bell won no championships.

          Super Bowl winning Steeler teams were built around a dynamic, in-your-face defense plus blue-collar, hard-hitting, no-nonsense football players on offense such as Hines Ward & Jerome Bettis.

          We don't want Juju & Conner to replace what we lost in Brown & Bell.

          We are counting on Juju & Conner to return us to the glory we once had with Hines & The Bus.

              It took GB a bit to adjust but they did.... terrible play by Kizer.. and Mack was neutralized in the last quarter and a half with the no huddle. As we have been talking about with Bell, football is still a team sport, no matter what these star players want you to believe.
              btw, I like CHI to win their division this season but they got some serious competition and need to win some of these early games.

                yup. Mack was a force against Kizer but once Rodgers returned they quickly neutralized Mack. Never heard his name again and Aaron played on 1 leg.

                  Bills just lost 47 to 3. Why would you ask such a foolish question?

                  Its because the Bills FO is cheap. Tyrod was supposed to get a nice contract and the Bills treated him like crap. Bills haven’t sniffed the playoffs in 20 years, Tyrod gets them to the playoffs and they release him.

                  What makes it worse was last year they benched Tyrod for a game and Peterman had 4INT’s in one half.

                  Yesterday Peterman has 24 passing yards. TOTAL.

                  I really thought Pererman would be better but he is terrible. The Bills whole staff should be fired. Concession, FO, parking attendants... everyone.

                    Really? The Bears have been last in the NFC North for 4 years straight. I expect the Vikings to run away with the division, the Pack to qualify for a wild card, and the Lions and Bears to be sitting on the couches come playoff time.

                      I think it's because the Bills want to tank so that they have a team with great young players as Brady retires.

                      I think Tyrod is good but not great. Cleveland thinks so too. He's the guy they brought in to keep the seat warm for their eventual franchise QB.

                        I agree. Tyrod isn’t special but he let them competitive. It’s like these bad teams are ok with being bad in hopes of catching lighting in a bottle.

                        Maybe Allen works out but he is probably the shakiest of all the future franchise hopeful QB’s.

                          For better or for worse, the defense always has to hold it down until the offense, usually by week 9 - 10, can remember their supposed to score points to help the defense out. I feel for our defense because they have been made the scapegoats as a result of an underperforming offense! Our defense would look so much better if our offense was as good as advertised.
