Soooo. Who is going to the pit?

And it’s his 5th one in his career. Dude is scrambled eggs. That said, I think he’ll play.

And their defense was punching Houston in the mouth. I came away from that game that Baltimore is the best team in the playoffs right now. Overall Lamar was lights out. I think if we can get through KC and get healthy, Baltimore v Buffalo is easily the best two teams in the playoffs right now. Either team smacks around Detroit or San Fran.

This is the same woman who was all over social media because one local Bills shop “ripped off” her Bills inspired fur jacket. But if you go on her Etsy page it’s loaded with knocked off “zubaz inspired” (insert product). Zubaz are certainly trademarked. Funny video, but what a wildly disconnected human.

That’s clear DPI. But also, it feels like the new move on 3rd and long it to under throw it and get the automatic DPI. I hate it. This one is a terrible example of it. But in general I don’t think a defender needs to allow a receiver to come back to the ball as much as it seems they’re required to.

But honestly, who is doing it? Like somebody has to.

I 99% stay out. I find it bad luck. occasionally I hop in to get some takes on what deem a questionable call.

God, how awesome would it be if first play of the game he lines up Offside again. Honestly, based on how their RT plays, I wouldn’t be shocked if they test Hocculi and dare him to flag it early.

2004 called, they said STFU this is fashion now.

Swifties and Goose fans seem super similar. Like you’re not allowed to just be like “yeah, this is pretty good, but I like Umphreys McGee better”. It is always met with like “How dare you like Lady Gaga more. Swift is the greatest thing to happen to the planet since Jesus Christ”. Or…. ”How can you like that drivel. I wish the band would break up and never play again”.

It was a success in that 21M people watched the game. But it was the best matchup of the weekend, at least on paper. It was the primetime game and was by far the lowest viewed game. I was shocked how many people didn’t actually subscribe for it.

Sometimes I wish they’d be more direct about it because it seems like the fans wait too long to get loud. “We need to make it tough on Mahomes and company from pre-huddle to post snap. Missing the play call matters as much as protections, snap count, and audibles. And if my boy Josh is on the field, let’s try and hear a pin drop in here”. For such a great fan base sometimes I find us weirdly loud on offense. Manning had that Indy crowd trained well. Quietest stadium ever when they had the ball. Christ, more blood on @boyst hands. We got a real OJ Simpson here on the boards.

Martin was named AFC player of the month for the last 4 weeks of the season. He’s been very good for us as of late. I don’t think Fournette will be the tipping point this week.

The vibe I get from people smarter than me is that Klein is a good downhill player with very good instincts. However struggles with some explosiveness, lateral movement, and in coverage. And that Williams is good athlete, and good LB, but struggles some with instincts and play recognition. All that to say, these guys skill sets can compliment each other well if they can find a groove/partnership early and figure out how to move with each other. But if they don’t they could find themselves taken advantage of early and often.

I believe that they hope Martin can go in a week and get Fournette back.

If memory serves correct, Taron Johnson normally takes over Kelce-duty. (more like Kelce doody. Amirite)

We’re missing a million starters on defense, leaving little margin for error on offense. For every turnover we get from Josh that’s an extra stop we need from the other side of the ball.

Maybe. My quick guess is that it is DJ Mangas who was brought in after Brady was promoted. They worked together at LSU with Burrow. Who knows, I guess there is a world where all three exist together in Buffalo.

Of course. It is a pipedream. Buffalo doesn't have the market to sell $400 300 level tickets week after week. I had a friend listed theirs the other day on social media on the upper deck. I reached out out of curiosity and they said $400 ea. because that is what they were going for on the secondary market. Early asking prices are always a pipe dream.

I believe in years past Taron Johnson has been tasked with Kelce duty with good success.

For the most part this team has been really good in all three phases this last stretch. There have been up and down moments, but largely pretty steady across the board. I would love that against KC, but this is a game where Josh may need to put on his Superman cape but stop short of hero ball.

Rick Stanford maybe? Drafted in the first in 79 by NE. Played 7 years.

With the low number of practices and HEAVY emphasis on college recruiting/transferring, I think everybody is becoming disposable. We have been seeing it for a while in the athlete pipeline, and I think coaching is starting to follow suit. I really believe these guys have to be in the facility more working without pads, watching film, and have more required contact with coaches.

Also KC v Miami’s was the most compelling game of the week and had the lowest viewership. I didn’t realize Peacock was such an anchor. I know everybody was complaining but I assumed they were watching. Worth noting that both Buffalo and Pittsburgh are smaller than every metro market but GB and they out drew a bunch of them.

I’ll add that it was against an opponent that nobody gave a shot in hell to win.
