We have that guy. His name is Dalton Kincaid.

I'm going to say that on paper, I think this should be a decent bet for a win: the injuries that Miami has sustained are particularly of importance vs the style of the Bills play. The Bills defense, when playing the way it wants to, is about limiting big plays with zone coverage while getting pressure with 4 rushers. Their O-line is in bad shape with injuries and if Waddle is still out the Bills don't need to worry about Waddle taking the top off the defense while we try to contain Hill. My biggest worry is about the offense. What the heck is going on? The Chargers game I could chalk up to flukey turnovers, but Josh was just bad vs the Pats. I am just hoping that was his one bad game for a month and he turns it back on soon. I will be eyeing the Dolphins injury report with great interest.

He's been playing out of this world. I hope we keep him long term. I think support was generally positive for the move at the time. But the Packers certainly didn't think he'd hit this form. They certainly could use him right now.

So...like our game vs the Phins

If anyone wants to complain about how the Bills look nowhere near top form I recommend you look at the Dolphins last four games

I have no idea what's going to happen, but I think some "Death or Glory" mentality in the run up won't hurt. Sure, in theory the Bills could be in the playoffs by game time but I want them prepping as if the season is on the line. Because it could be

My only quibble is there is a good chance we know we are in by game time it's not the playoffs. And if everything is on the line, our playoffs started vs the Chiefs

Ugly win > 13 second game But Brady really needs to figure out the passing game stat

Game day!

But I heard that we have all turnstyles at our O-line! /s I think it has to happen. I like Morse fine, but he'll be 32, in the last year of his contract and offering an $8.5 M cap savings if we cut him. Center is part of my big 3 needs for the offseason shopping (#2 WR and then C and S)

Considering his age and contract, I would be loath to rush him back and further aggravate the injury. I would much rather see him heal fully and see what we can do about maybe running a Bernard-Milano-Dodson combo with a likely exit of Hyde and possible loss of Rapp.

I believe that's what I said. When they restructured they most most of it into void years, the harshest of which is 2026. Unless they want to extend him, the Jets will be paying $35 million to NOT have him on the team

I fully suspect that the terminally injured Dolphins players will be loaded up with every painkiller known to man for the Bills game. And while I would love to give the Bills every chance to win Week 18, it matters that the 'Phins lose to Ravens to give us a shot.

Short answer: No. Not going to happen. Not in 2024. In fact, if they were doing that getting two 1sts would be too low in my opinion With Diggs' contact, we would be looking at $4 million LOSS in cap space iand the loss of a 1000 yard receiving player and a player who is arguably a top 10 WR in the NFL even in a down year. To a couple of firsts seems too low for me, especially with our cap so low and our WR situation so bare to begin with. Unless there is more than speculation, I highly doubt it. It's incredible! In the sense that it is not at all credible.

Unless Rodgers comes in and wins MVP next season his contract is going to utterly wreck the Jets in years to come In 2025 his contract is in its last year and has a $51 million cap hit. Usually when that happens and a player underperforms you can cut him...but when he took a discount this year the cap hit was pushed to 2026 and beyond. Basically they have one year to win it all before they take a looooot of medicine

Don't you know, the Jets just forced him back. Yes, that was a line he used. 🤣

Welp no shot at the 5 seed then. It's glory #2 or the hard way (#6 or #7)

I am happy that you received a basic lesson in literacy. Now I use "prank" because some people are under the impression that calling the police is some kind of game. I don't necessarily think that those individuals necessarily have an intent to kill or severely hurt their targets, but are just grossly irresponsible I think that anyone blindly firing a gun or drunkenly setting office rockets. A lack of lethal intent does not excuse reckless endangerment. What you seem to fail to grasp as my main issue, is that in this example, police response is a deadly weapon. So when Karen is upset because she sees children playing cops and robbers in a public park and the cops shoot a kid with a toy gun, or someone complains about a neighbor being too loud and embellishes slightly and people get hurt. At what point do we consider police running around like lunatics to be a problem? And what does it say when it's a rich conservative who gets called on that they show the discretion that they do not afford others? I hope you rub all two brain cells together on those ones.

Agree 100% on Benford. While I am disappointed in Elam (though not 100% ready to give up quite yet) the idea that McDermott has gotten that level of play out of 6th and 7th round and undrafted players in incredible. My only quibble on Dodson is that I think Bernard has been even better. I can't wait to see this LB group with a healthy Milano.

I will spell it out for you so that even a moron like yourself can understand: I am 100% against people prank calling police on others with false allegations with the intent on hurting or disrupting their person's life. I also believe that the fact that anyone with a disposable cash purchased cell phone can use the police as a weapon in an attempted murder is indicative of an even greater problem. I believe that it's "Swatting" when the victims have a voice to call it out and it's a police report read out verbatim on the evening news when it isn't. Now, I am not sure if you are that media illiterate or just pretending to be that dumb.

After a...let's call it tumultuous January 2023 and beyond, I would like to take a moment at the end of the year and say the things I am optimistic about going forward. I can get down, but I think it's nice to pick out the good and be reminded of it. Terrell Bernard. If you told me that Milano would go down at the quarter pole, I would have assumed that the LB group was doomed. I had highlighted Bernard as the biggest weakness in our defense in preseason and HO BOY was I wrong. He might not have Edmund's physical gifts, but his instinct and playmaking cannot be denied. I was expecting a downgrade and they got an upgrade instead. 2023 draft hits. Kincaid and Torrence have stepped in and been productive from the start. The thing is, I think they still can get even better. Spencer Brown finally took the jump. I am not saying he's now an All-Pro, but I was legitimately worried when Knox went down. James Cook. Holy crow, I think he might now be our most explosive threat. There is a more than reasonable chance that he breaks 1000 yards rushing (already done) and 500 yards receiving. Those are early Christian McCaffery numbers! Yes, he has some fumbling issue but this is something Josh has never had in his career. Rasul Douglass looks like a steal of a trade. Ed Oliver has been a monster. After a history of big D-line signings not working out (Dareus, Mario, arguable Von) it was nice to see him really be a force. Joe Brady has been a welcome breath of fresh air and I am reminding myself that this is without even installing his own defense. He's mostly been pulling from what Dorsey installed (what Daboll installed). Again, the test of a good OC how long you adapt over time. Lots of guys have good 1/2 season stretches. But in our limited sample size, we've seen him go out of his way to attack a defenses deficiencies. The Chargers game was the first I've seen where he got punched in the mouth but didn't panic and adjusted. I am sure I missed things, but I would love to hear what other people have.

It has been a roller coaster year. I was in "Fire Everyone!" mode after the Broncos game and was ready to burn it all down. Now the Bills are a win and some lucky breaks away from having locked up a playoff spot and playing for the division in the final week.

...I'm sorry, are you stating that law enforcement has been incredibly lenient with MAGA? Because I agree, but I don't think I said that. Also, because I don't think that anyone pointed it out yet, but even though the police got called THEY DIDN'T EVEN GET TO HER HOUSE Versus the nice examples above about police who had no problem busting down average American's doors. Guys, I'm beginning to suspect that we don't have a prank call Swatting problem as much as a problem that our SWAT teams can get sent out for full speed raids on random phone calls.

The part where he turns to the camera and says "It's grooming time" You're right. I went for the quick punchy joke. I have no intention to see youz' whacking material. But people who actually fight child trafficking have shat all over it because it takes a real problem and makes it run by a shadowy cabal of strangers going after pretty little white elementary schoolers. It's not a scary monster who snatches you, it's commonly relatives who sell off teenagers to fuel drug habits, or runaways kicked out of their homes due to poverty or being gay who get swept up. Or people smuggled in to work as labor to undercut unions. https://screenrant.com/sound-of-freedom-movie-child-trafficking-fact-check/ https://www.newsweek.com/child-trafficking-sound-freedom-movie-1831710 I'm not saying there isn't a problem, but it's not THE GROOMERZZZZ. And the way you fight the problems is *checks data* more foreign aid and social programs. I sure the Think of the Children group will get right on that. Just like the pro-life groups get riiiiight on universal healthcare, widely broadened contraception, subsidized childcare and broader social safety nets.

That movie is historical in the way that 300 is. There might be a grain of history, but then turned into a hyperstylized cartoon and then fawned over by people who like fascist iconography. Sorry Zach Synder fans, I don't think he does it on purpose. I think he's just obsessed with getting a sick visual shot to realize.
