TPS

I was just looking at the stats. The Bills had 2 more plays than the Broncos (65 to 63) and had over double the total yardage. That's an amazing stat.

A random piece of info.....Beasley needs 50 more yards to hit 1,000.

Well, this happened quicker than I thought. I figured it would take another year or two before people stopped the Mahomes Lament....

Yeah, it's the best thing he's done (media wise). F'n fantastic!

That was awesome! Best thing Tasker's ever done!

Yes, good to have him back.

Dominant D!

Well, it wasn't a bomb, but I'll take it!

Looks like Gilliam got two blocks in on that TD

Ok, I had to watch it to see if they talked about the Knox PI play, and they do a little after the 113 min mark. I recall seeing a replay during the game where I saw Beasley open, however I wasn't completely sure at the time because there was a figure running behind him which turned out to be a sideline judge. The video here shows that it's quite possible Beasley could've taken it to the house, he was that open. Just shows that Josh has a lot of room to grow. I imagine these kinds of plays has Daboll pulling his hair out, at least if he had any...

Maybe I have the wrong guy, but wasn't this your criticism of Josh with your "in your head" post? Certainly there has to be a balance, but he still seems to, more often than not, take the low probability home run throw. I don't know if they go over it, but that throw that ened with a PI on Knox he had Beasley for an easy first down throw. I'm torn on these. Love to see him hit some deep ones, but I'd also like to see him control the urge sometimes...

One big thing, one little thing: I'd really like to see Allen connect on a bomb today; I'm hoping Kumerow gets his first catch as a Bill--ideally, they happen on the same play...

That would also mean 6-0 in the AFCE, also great (even though it does include the Jets...)

Yes, great read. Thanks.

The Bills will most likely sign all of their RFAs sign(Wallace, Zimmer, Kumerow, Boettger, Bojorquez, and maybe Smith the LB) and their one ERFA (lewis). They'll probably sign at least 90% of their PS players. As the OP asked, which UFAs will they re-sign? The list includes: Murphy, Milano, Kroft, Norman, Nsekhe, Feliciano, Williams, Winters, Roberts, Barkley, Jones, Yeldon, Marlowe, and McKenzie. For their more expensive signings (>= $5 mil) ,I think they absolutely re-sign Feliciano for his versatility, insurance against Morse's injuries, and he absolutely fits "the process," in fact he is Mr Process. I don't think they'll be able to afford both Milano and Williams. Milano wants to be here, so he may give them a nice discount, and given his injury history they may be able to come up with a contract that protects them against that. That leaves Williams on the outside, from my perspective. Murphy and Nsekhe are gone, and I don't think they can afford Norman as well. Mid-level ($2 - $5 mil): I'm they'd like to have Roberts back, but no guarantee. They'd probably like to have Barkley back, but it will depend on if they can trust Fromm at this point. Winters is gone. Low-level ($1 -$2 mil) I think they will try to bring back Jones, Marlowe, and McKenzie. Yeldon is gone. Summarizing, the UFAs I think they bring back are Feliciano, Milano, Jones, Marlowe, McKenzie, and maybe Roberts and Barkley. Gone are Murphy, Nsekhe, Norman, Kroft, Winters, Yeldon, and Williams.

Murphy is an UFA this year, so there's no savings. Star will cost more to release than keep.

This might as well go here too. The loss to the Bills has Big Ben mentioning the R word... https://sports.yahoo.com/ben-roethlisberger-on-loss-to-bills-if-i-dont-play-good-enough-football-i-need-to-hang-it-up-152149722.html

I was thinking along these lines as I read the OP. I absolutely believe that there's a psychology associated with the concept based upon knowing "in your head" that you should win a game. If taht mentality seeps into enough players, then it shows up in a game. Just as there is a mentality that can help win a game, it works the other way as well. It might not result in a loss most of the time, but it sure can result in not meeting the expected betting outcome--the spread.

Yeah, I think he'd love to be a part of the team that finally brought home the Lombardi trophy. It would take a great off until then...

As I posted in the "post-game" thread Sunday night, I had friends in Hawaii texting and asking for Bills jerseys, especially Allen's.

At one point last year I suggested sitting him and replacing him with Duke because he wasn't contributing at the WR position which was sorely lacking (toward the end, teams were focused on taking away Smoke and Beas, and there was no one else picking up the slack. In addition, the Bills ST unit wasn't very good overall. This year, he is a valuable piece to the overall puzzle, especially now that they have a great complement of WRs and their return unit is much better.

It's fine if he leaves. Super Bowl champs always seem to lose coordinators this way....

It won't be a problem.

People actually listen to that guy?

A CB, Ramsey maybe. Super Bowl team with another stud opposite White.
