The Texans' Red-Zone Offense Is Enough Of A Reason To Fire Bill O'Brien
Bill O’Brien is a head coach who specializes in offense. In his two seasons at Penn State, he made the most of Matt McGloin and turned Christian Hackenberg into a competent quarterback. He even fooled the Jets into using a second-round pick on the latter. Before that, O’Brien had a role in the Patri...

Text Messages Show Bill Self Working With Shady Adidas Consultant To Recruit Player

Poor Nathan Peterman Reaches New Low With Brutal Game-Ending Pick-Six
Time to add another highlight to the Nathan Peterman archives. After rookie QB Josh Allen hurt himself in the second half of Buffalo’s game against the Texans, Nathan Peterman took the field, and even gave the Bills a fourth-quarter lead with a very pretty touchdown pass. Buffalo’s defense was mauli...

Jadeveon Clowney Tackled Chris Ivory By A Single Dreadlock
This is a legal tackle, but good lord, it looked painful as hell. I’m just happy that Jadaveon Clowney didn’t yank Chris Ivory’s dreadlock all the way out....

Bill Belichick On Dolphins Apparent Fake Injury: "That's Fucking Bullshit"<em></em>
Dolphins CB Bobby McCain didn’t seem to be prepared for a fourth-down play the Patriots were setting up during the second quarter of their game today, and he solved his problem by giving his team a free timeout....

Sam Darnold Had Better Watch Out, Because Josh Allen Has The Poise Now
Jets quarterback Sam Darnold may have rebounded from throwing an early pick-six to pick apart the Lions in his team’s season opener, but he is no longer leading rookie QBs in poise. Bills signal caller Josh Allen has claimed pole position—or is it poise position?...

Can Matt Patricia Break The Belichick Curse?<em></em>
Many of the modern NFL’s legendary coaches have impressive coaching trees. Hefty branches that bore much fruit. Assistants that became successful head coaches and who then mentored younger coaches to do the same. Bill Walsh coached Dennis Green, who coached Brian Billick, who coached Jack Del Rio, w...

The Patriots Are Slllooooowwwww
Nobody is allowed to say that this is finally the season when it all comes apart for the New England Patriots until they have been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. Nobody is allowed to do it! But what we can do, a few hours after the Pats were handily beaten on national TV by a Lio...

The Vikings Are Making Josh Allen Look Like Superman
Rookie QB Josh Allen and the Bills are just inexplicably and completely picking apart the Minnesota Vikings in their game so far this afternoon, jumping out to a 24-0 lead after just one quarter and change. ...

Oh Good, Time For Patriots Fans To Get Mad At ESPN Again
Those were good times, weren’t they? When that big ESPN report on a schism between Tom Brady and Bill Belichick, driven in part by Brady’s shady nutrition “guru” Alex Guerrero, dropped right before the playoffs and set off rounds of denials and non-denials and recriminations, and a whole lot of scre...

Vontae Davis Might've Just Retired In The Middle Of A Game [Update]
The Bills came into Sunday’s game against the Chargers, an eventual 31-20 loss, with just four cornerbacks dressed. After Phillip Gaines was carted off with an elbow injury, they were down to three. And then Vontae Davis just disappeared. Not on the field. Not on the sidelines. No reported injury. J...

Taiwan Jones Injured On Helmet-To-Head Hit
Taiwan Jones suffered a scary-looking injury in the third quarter of the Bills’ game against the Chargers today. He picked up a muffed punt, lost his helmet and took a helmet-to-head hit in his own end zone....

Cops Will Try To Halt The Tailgating Bills Fans' War Against Tables
The Buffalo Bills will play their first home game of the season this Sunday against the Chargers. (The last time those two teams played, Nathan Peterman threw five picks in a half.) Hordes of Zubaz-clad Bills fans will presumably mark the home opener as is tradition: by getting mega drunk and tryin...

At Least One Nathan Peterman Defender Exists, And He's A Shitbird
The Buffalo Bills officially announced on Wednesday that flailing intern Nathan Peterman would no longer be their starting QB, to the relief of Bills fans and probably Peterman himself, who never asked to become synonymous with incompetence just because his team had an irrational fear of Tyrod Taylo...

Bills Finally Admit Nathan Peterman Has No Business Being A Starting QB

"It's Not My Job," Says Bill O'Brien Of Thing That Is His Job
The Texans hung admirably tight with the Patriots in Foxboro, losing 27-20, but you can’t say they didn’t have their chances to outright win the thing. And a whole lot of the blame for that falls on head coach Bill O’Brien, who was responsible for some iffy fourth-down decisions, a brutally lackadai...

It Took Just 34 Minutes For The Bills To Ditch Nathan Peterman
Nathan Peterman has, um, struggled just a bit in his time as a Buffalo Bills quarterback, most notably in the five-pick first half that followed his inexplicable start against the Chargers last season. But for some reason, the Bills felt confident enough in a guy who had never thrown for more than 8...
