I assume you're an extraordinarily smart guy that doesn't spend too much time around people of average intelligence. A 28 Wonderlic roughly equates to an IQ of 116, which while not close to genius level, is above average for the American population - probably on par with your average accountant or school teacher.

(Guy who failed the Wonderlic)

It's the playoffs and anything can happen, but I feel like we are a couple of pieces and a year of growth away. This still feels a lot like 1989 to me. Edit: just wanted to add that I think we can make a run so long as we protect the football and play smart. I just feel like we've been a little sloppier this year compared to last.

Diggs is recording his rap single as we speak.

Wonder if they swapped Williams back in for Proehl since Beas and Davis had COVID and are now good for the rest of the season. Same can't be said for our RB room, so makes sense to have a guy like Williams ready to go on the practice squad.

Great story, RWC. Glad everything worked out in the end!

You're the best, Shaw. Thanks for the write up!

I think people are seriously underestimating the Raiders. Their defense is really coming on strong. They went on the road last week and held Indy to 260 total yards and won despite losing the turnover battle -2. And lets not forget that they went into Dallas a few weeks ago and beat the Cowboys while hanging 500+ yards on them. They are a bit of a Jekyll and Hyde team, but they have a veteran QB and a higher ceiling than the Pats. I would much rather face a one-dimensional team like New England.

How about Lobbyists?

There are a lot of extenuating circumstances that have led to the drop in performance we've seen from Baker and Lamar this season. I'm not super high on either of them, but they are much better than they've shown in 2021. The Ravens have been decimated by injuries this year and we know Baker isn't healthy. I think the Browns and Ravens should find a way to lock up these guys. I think Lamar gets a Josh Allen type of contract in the offseason. Maybe a little more based on the cap and inflation. I'm not saying he's "worth" that, but they need to keep him and that's what he's going to demand. As for the Browns, they were a nothing joke before Baker. Do they really want to play the QB carousel again for 20 years? Baker is probably around the 12-15th best QB in the NFL when healthy. The question is whether the Browns can get Baker to sign for a contract number in that range. They shouldn't break the bank for him, but do they want to roll the dice on him bouncing back with a big year in 2022 and demanding huge money or walking?

This year really shows you how it's such a game of inches in the NFL. Bills are literally 3 fluke plays/bad calls away from 13-3 and Josh being #2 in the MVP race behind Rodgers (slip against TN, missed DPIs against Pats and Bucs). But overall, I agree with those who say Josh hasn't been as good this year. It's clear from the stats and the eye-test. He's had a few real stinkers, which is something we didn't see much of last season.

His vision on the kickoff returns is comically bad. If he wasn't on our Bills, I'd probably find it pretty amusing actually.

With one single data point, this is honestly meaningless. To prove the point, I just quickly went through Allen and Brady's game logs to see their records in games where their quarterback ratings were sub-65 (i.e., "Bad Games"). Brady is 10-23 (.303 winning percentage) and Allen is 2-9 (.182 win percentage).

It's the playoffs. Of course I'm worried. I'd be worried if we were matched up against Jamestown High School.

What I wouldn't give for him over Stevenson. Kid's nickname should be Mr. Magoo.

The other thing that struck me today is that we have 10 wins, and not a single one has been by less than 10 points. Has that ever happened in NFL history? Just a very odd stat.

Holy crap. Stevenson is a joke. Need an upgrade in the offseason. He's horrible

And Stafford turns it over again.

Unbelievably disgusting 2nd quarter.

Starting to feel like Jax all over again. Sloppy, unfocused and stupid.

Stevenson sucks, IMO.

Get both. That's what I do when I'm in town! Also, to the OP. Jealous man. Your boys are going to have a BLAST!

I heard he pancaked Judon and said "You just got Rick-rolled by MASTER BATES"

Interesting. I wonder why Bates fell all the way out of the draft. Not even a late day 3 selection? He looks undersized, but solid to me. He's only 24 years old. Hope the Bills keep him here in this utility lineman/backup center role for awhile.

I feel like we just laid an egg against the Colts. For whatever reason, we just weren't ready to play that game and it showed. We lost the turnover battle 4-0. I don't see that happening again. The Colts are good, but they aren't some juggernaut. I think that game is a toss-up if we meet them in the playoffs.
