I’d add Taron Johnson to the Cons list.

One interesting thing that bugged me early on in the first half was the Bills use of Benford on Chase. Despite being best on best, I thought it made more sense to have the bigger bodied Benfor on Higgins and let Hairston’s young legs and safety help to cover Chase. Regardless, they could just not get it together on the back end today. Whether it was a guy getting beat in man or a player late to the party with too much cushion in zone, tackling and yes great plays on the football by Cinci, they just got whipped by Burrow in the first half.

Pitt over Balt Jags over Indy (who might be done w/o Jones) The two late games matter most

Fair question: I think a lot of the early defensive issues were players not converting, instead of scheme. He had a number of well-timed blitzes today, two of which resulted in game altering plays. He kept his team focused and methodically chipping away despite the slow start. They’ve dealt with injuries to major contributors, playing practice squad players and defensive tackles at DE. They had untimely turnovers on offense, and bad weather, coming back in the second half down multiple scores when other teams would have folded. Allen helps a lot, no doubt.

I’m giving McDermott a game ball 🏈

Also playing out of position, but man did he get deeked on that one TD as an unblocked rusher. I cannot get over this series of plays. Benford pick 6 and then this immediately following it had me literally about to bring the house down

Whichever idiot moved that game from the 4:30 window probably getting rear ended by the boss

Dude SMASHED his head after just clearing protocol after a concussion. Immediately comes back into the game after literally pointing at his head. Proceeded to drop passes and double clutch balls all while scoring a one handed TD. This guy is a legit weapon and also spaghetti.

How’s Jones? Who cares

I always say that some of the best watched games of the Allen era was 13 seconds and the Phili loss two years ago. They had similar vibes today. This time we just came out on top.

I meant the Bills but yes a very rough day on D all around (minus the two INTs)

I didn’t see a brace on the knee today? Maybe it was precautionary, helping the hammy heal?

I mean there are a lot of surface level reasons to not feel great after that game but when you dig deeper, it’s really quite amazing they were able to pull that off: The 3rd down crazy conversion rate The cook fumbles Ty Slipping the injuries the 4th down conversions by Allen They just overcame so much.

No punts today
