Nobody's "forcing" me to subscribe to Amazon Prime. But I don't subscribe to Prime for football and I especially mind being forced to pay for ***** (and Thursday Night Football is *****) I don't watch. Is that plain enough, or do I have to draw you a f***ing picture.

Netflix doesn't carry NFL games that I know of. But they do spend a shitload of money sending out useless crap to entertainment writers.

Amazon is raising the price of Prime membership by $20 a year. They're citing the cost of its exclusive deal to televise Thursday Night Football. I know that it works out to $1.3333333333 (ad infinitum) per game for the 15 games Prime will broadcast, but I find Thursday night games to be less than compelling. It irks me that I'm forced to pay for something I rarely watch. https://www.msn.com/en-us/tv/news/amazon-to-increase-price-of-prime-membership-due-to-exclusive-thursday-night-football-deal/ar-AATrVjd?ocid=msedgntp

"we"? Are you employed by the Bills?

He might be an intriguing prospect as a QB coach. But I'm sure he wouldn't want to stoop so low as to take a lower-level coaching position, and I'm pretty sure he plans to stay in Florida once his playing career is over.

With the Bills out of the picture, the playoffs are little more than a formality for me.

Tannehill doesn't seem to be the answer for the team.

It's "hear" comedy. I'll ignore the other grammatical issues.

Citing the wrong team doesn't change the score, or the threat to the team's standing in the AFC East that the loss created. That was the point.

Selective editing, my friend. Here's more from that story: But before earning a date with the Chiefs, the Bills had to fight and claw their way into the playoffs. The Bills lost to two non-playoff teams in the New York Jets in Week 9 by a score of 9-6 in and Indianapolis Colts in Week 11 by a score of 41-15. A Week 13 loss to the New England Patriots at home put Buffalo in danger of losing its grip of the AFC East division, and an overtime loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 14 put the team’s playoff hopes in jeopardy altogether. Buffalo rebounded over the next four weeks with four-straight wins over the Carolina Panthers, Patriots in New England, Atlanta Falcons and New York Jets. ... but at least this year they’ll be travelling to Arrowhead Stadium knowing that they’re capable of taking down Mahomes when it matters most.

I think Belichick's ego won't let him quit because he's only third on the list of winningest NFL coaches: Don Shula - 328 wins. George Halas - 318. Bill Belichick - 280 wins. However, if he keeps stumbling in the playoffs, Robert Kraft will probably make the decision for Belichick.

Actually, I enjoyed this clip. The guy with the ill-fitting white shirt clearly explained how Josh Allen recognized the zone coverage on the 45-yard pass to Diggs and responded appropriately.

Could you add some context to this clip.

That's right. We're not customers, we (our data) are the product.

If I recall, the big knock against Allen when he was drafted was that his "accuracy" was not very good ... and those naysayers claimed accuracy could not be taught. I guess the argument was that accuracy was some sort of innate skill or talent that only God could bestow. Well, the Bills' brain trust saw a baller and decided he could become a franchise QB. Not every front office can cut though the baloney and see the talent lying below the surface. The question then becomes, which teams had the patience (and luxury) to develop a raw talent into a HOF candidate. Apparently, only one. And damn I'm glad the Bills were the one.

Personally, I'm happy with the CFL ... when ESPN decides to broadcast their games. That is pretty spotty once the NFL season starts.

Once again, you provide a dispassionate commentary on the Bills' performance. Thanks for your clear-eyed observations. They are consistently the best thing about this board.

It's not that difficult to find local charities. Really!

As it turns out, I did contribute to charities in Niagara Falls and Buffalo. I also donated to a food bank run by students at my alma mater, St. Bonaventure.

I donated, but I feel bad that I haven't done the same for food banks in Niagara Falls (my home town) or Buffalo. I guess those are next on my list.

Reminds me of the self-serving bozo who suggested in 2010 that fans invest in bonds to help a future owner finance the purchase of the team. Back then, when everyone was totally convinced that the team would be moved to God-knows-where, this knucklehead suggested that fans basically give their money to a prospective buyer. From the Buffalo News: "Under ... the plan, fans would loan money to the next owner of the Buffalo Bills by purchasing low-interest bonds -- called Bills Bonds -- that would reduce a new owner's often-choking interest payments."

Save as much as you can. Spend as little as you can. Vanguard or Fidelity are good places to start stashing your money.

I have no issues with getting WGR audio on my computer. Well, actually, I do have issues with Schopp and the Bulldog. But that's programming and not reception.
