I don't believe I've ever seen such a gloomy thread as this one, even during the thick of the drought years... https://finheaven.com/threads/oh-no-its-the-bills.385112/

I wonder if the Fish think there is some way of salvaging their season, and maybe making it into the playoffs? Because their fans sure don't.

Khalil Shakir with another phenomenal game. A 90% completion rate (9/10) on the day. Unfortunately, the one he missed was batted out of the air before it got anywhere near him. This game puts him at a 94.7% completion rate-- 36 receptions on 38 targets-- for 421 yards, eight games in.

Beane is a genius.

Let's go!!... Patriots*... 🤮

When something in the knee just pops like that, it's usually an ACL.

Can't believe I'm rooting for the Patriots*... I feel dirty...

Brady*'s segment looks downright amateurish.

If I remember that play correctly, a defender was trying to strip Keon naked back at the LOS, which is why his jersey is under his shoulder pad. No flag.

I agree with this entirely. Pundits , and fans might expect Josh to throw a little shade. Diggs leveraged himself out of the building and didn’t think twice about saddling the team with a $30M dead cap hit. He deserves to be under the bus.

And he fights for YAC on every reception, and delivers.

As I mentioned in another thread, Shakir has 27 receptions on 28 targets.

Khalil Shakir has yet another game with a 100% completion percentage (7/7), bringing his season total to 96.4% with 27 receptions on 28 targets.

Bills win, Pats* lose, Fish lose, Texans lose. Now if the Jets, and Chiefs can just go ahead and lose, this is a pretty good Sunday.

It wouldn't be dumb at all, IMO. The Titans are now 1-5. Their season is all but over. If they can get draft value for a 32yo receiver, that would be smart.

We're doomed.

And all while taking a step back on an already lousy O-line.

My only point is that if the NFL were to pressure the Dolphins into releasing Tua for health reasons (which is not an unreasonable stance) then that works to Tua's advantage. Tua's next concussion could be very serious, and a very bad look for the NFL-- a PR nightmare. But, the NFL also wants to maintain parity, and releasing Tua puts the Dolphins on the hook for a lot of coin.

It was unfortunate, but I'm not mad at it. From the initial angle they showed on TV, which I believe was the same side the official was on, it did look like he landed on Rodgers with his full weight, which is a flag. Other angles showed that it was a clean sack. It was sticky tacky, sure, but not a egregious call, IMO.

As long as Josh Allen is our scalpel, we'll be fine.

In my opinion (as a Bills fan living on the West Coast), the biggest problem currently with the NFL, as an entertainment medium, are the numerous streaming services now involved, and the issues with navigating that morass.

I've been under the assumption that there have been injury settlement negotiations going on behind the scenes. It feels like Tua and the Fish are playing a game of chicken. If Tua's is not allowed to play because of his injury, he gets paid. If he quits because of his injury, he doesn't. So far, neither side is flinching, and the NFL has declined to get involved (which is tantamount to siding with the Dolphins). And still, Grier, and the Dolphins have done nothing to shore up their porous O-line, and give Tua some modicum of protection. Instead, they will continue with their get-the-ball-out-of-your-hands-as-fast-as-humaly-possible offensive scheme. Maybe they're hoping that opposing defenses will be easy on him, rather than take the risk of killing someone on the field?

everything but the feces part... yuk.....
