Agree with the poster above. Good thread, a little levity, after a tough game like that!

On to Baltimore. I think McKenzie and Allen both said "we will learn from this." That is the right attitude. It defines nothing, take from it what we can - and yeah, under different circumstances they know, we know and I think even Dolphins fans know (at least the ones I spoke to), that we would beat them handily. We should have today.

Baffled is a good word. But it was so inexplicable it is almost not strong enough. That had just sacked him and it is obvious he does not like pressure. I was screaming "bring the house" and they didn't even bring the base 4. Un-f-ing believable. I thought on the whole the team played its guts out, almost literally. This was pure mental error by Frazier, unforced and inexcusable when you have young back-ups trying to cover super-fast wideouts. Why drop a bunch of guys into short zones on third and 22? Still upset about that play call, and not really upset with us about anything else (upset with Wilkins for roughing up Josh, but we will even that up in Buffalo). So dumb.

I liked it. He cares. A lot. What did he hurt, a headset and some papers? Big deal. He is a competitor and hates to lose. I wanted to do the same to my TV set!

Some days you get 'em, and some days you get got. We controlled the play all day. Missing all the players we had hurt, and the players that were out due to the heat and we still should have won by two touchdowns. Josh has a brain fart at the end of the half, balls slips out of his hand with McKenzie open in the end zone, Davis can't hang on in the end zone, Bass shanks one. Even missing 40% of our team they needed an avalanche of breaks to win. No need to panic or change anything. The only thing that really sticks in my craw is rushing 3 when we have them 3rd and 22 and had just sacked Tua. Should have brought the house - Tua had all day to sit back their and llet Waddle run between our back-up safeties. How about we help the young guys out by letting our pash rush get after him, at least bring the four lineman and one backer. We rushed 3, if I saw it right, and that I can't believe. Geesh.

EZ Ed should just rest up and spare his brain from hitting on big Derrick Henry. We need him in the pass rush later in the year, happy to let the bigger boys bash on Henry. Let's GO!

I will not ever get over how unique Allen is. Strong like bull, smart like tractor? WTF? Love it anyhow. Love that Diggs credits Josh, and Josh credits Diggs. Team.

Only 30% chance of rain Monday night. Game time decision on how much to gear up! With full knowledge of the rain I happily paid up for 4 tickets 30 rows up from the field on the 50. Probably overpaid, but don't really care - I hope it helps some guy pay for his season.

Trubisky - rooting for him. Think he is going to be pretty good. Looks calm and in charge, despite some red zone challenges.

Love the idea, but shhhh -- don't jinx it!

Sensed this was coming. Thread about it a week ago. Now we will resign him for a reasonable extension. Knox done too, just awesome.

Post is so annoying. No pressure at all. In five years look where we are and consider where we were. We owe that to two men, principally.

Get well big fella!

Loving Jordan Phillips. His answer to the question as to why he re-signed with the Bills was the best: "the heart wants what the heart wants." He loves it here. Don't know if it showed on TV, but he was firing up the Mafia at the game all night.

I was there with a high-up seat on the 50 - perfect to watch plays develop. Watched Elam, he played well.

Bills by six

The Magician is in the house with the spouse! Section 415, let's go!

He is not under contract for next year, and he is not holding out this year. Just sign him for next season and give him some security.

Shakir.

Hyde is on the books in 2023 for $10.8 million. Probably could have Poyer for about the same. Not buying Johnson as the equivalent, and you would have to pay him to start. Not buying Hamlin as the equivalent either. Though I like both. No reason they can't afford Poyer one more year.

Didn't say Didn't say give him a "huge" raise. There should be a middle ground that makes Poyer happy, secures his services beyond this year and provides a positive boost for the room. Takes a potential distraction and makes it a win. No need to compromise our future to extend him a year and give him a raise for 2022.

Having cleared cap space with the Schnowman, it is time to extend Po. From what I can tell he has universal respect in the locker room and he is a warrior. Extending Po would give the team a boost and help purge the Ariaza situation. I believe it would be a boost for the locker room and the fan base. Not saying be crazy, but I am sure he wants to get something done and finish what he has started here. Could be a real win-win.

This sarcasm expresses my feelings exactly. OBJ for this team is the wrong guy -- I do not believe OBJ would provide too much of an upgrade over Lil' Dirty in the slot and Davis wide. So why spend the money? And even more, why risk the chemistry? We don't need him. Get more Online help at the trade deadline instead (if one needs to make a move).

Happy Birthday Coach. You have always been a class act that reflects well on our City and our Team. Except maybe for that fight song. Yeesh!

One of my all-time favorite Bills. Our family's thoughts and prayers go out to the Schnowman! I knew we had a fun group with him and Tre in 2018. They are heart and soul dudes. Go Schnow!
