My issue with the play was that Mckenzie needed to lay out to try and catch that ball. You cannot let it hit the ground. Running up to a few yards from it, stopping, and letting it hit the ground shows a lack of understanding of the situation.

This is a legit question.. We've had two SP blunders this year that cost us opposing TDs. Steelers blocked punt was a game decider, Washington thankfully made no difference.. but 2 major blunders in 4 games is not a good start/trend.

Maybe not, but it's in that category. Burrow had a great game, but his numbers won't even be top-10 come end of season for qb performance.

Issues in the past were as follows. 1- We had to sell out to stop the run.. and that was still not enough. 2- We generated ZERO pass rush. 3- We COULD NOT RUN THE BALL against light boxes. KC not only beat us in the above categories.. but they DOMINATED us in them. We've improved in all these areas, but by how much? We'll find out this week.

Burrows numbers vs the Jags 25/32, 348, 2TD Tyreek Hill 11/180/3TD Hill's numbers will likely hold up as the #1 game for an NFL receiver all season.

You're spot on.. somehow Tyreek Hill lost to Joe Burrow last week too.. so these things are meaningless. I don't hate Edmunds either for the record. Just acknowledging that POW awards are given by fans.

Wait.. so Burrows got offensive award over Hill or Mahommes?? These are ranks are officially meaningless.

Margin for error will be known after we learn who we are after this Sunday. If they win and look good against KC, then I think we have an easy road to the 1 seed. If we lose, and it's a replay of Buff v KC 2020 games... then we've got work to do.

I'd be on board with that, such a small sample size and power rankings seem to be overreacting to the most recent single game, more this year than years past IMO

Pretty sure the reporters that come up with these meaningless ranks just look for ways to have as many teams as possible be #1 for a week. 1-KC 2-AZ 3-LA rams 4-Bills ^Realistic ranks

He's legit on drugs, no question about it.

We need our offense to show that they can score on this Chiefs D. The D has done 'enough' the past two matchups, we need to be confident in scoring points after this game regardless of W or L. Offense will be the story line.

Biggest thing to see from this game is the Bills offense keeping up/even out producing Mahommes. I think the defense will get their licks in, but can't expect them to keep it under 25 against this team.

Maybe this is what it looks like when competition exists at such a high level? Also, get different guys in there and comfortable playing? Idk but they look great against these weaker opponents. If they dominate KC/hold them to low-20s... I will be very excited for the season.

Tampa D is not looking good.

So in reading that quote there is zero context. It totally sounded like Kraft was making a joke with some ironic sarcasm.

Totally. We have a pretty easy schedule this year outside of those games. Must be what NE got used to for 20 years playing in the AFC east.

I think this team can be great, no doubt... but we've only beat the fins and the no-names and are 2-1. I don't see how anyone can dismiss the Rams right now, and we still need to see more from our Bills when we play KC, Tenn, and Tampa.

This could arguably be a brilliant strategy for a team... Instill strict discipline all regular season, then get the reputation for being the least penalized team in the league, play overly aggressive with holds in the playoffs which legitimately destroys a game's level of fairness, Win super bowl!

Yeah, such an idiotic comment. Diggs also got tackled while he was mid-air and got a no call.

Might be an unpopular opinion.. but that Knox TD was maybe the most blatant no-calls for offesnsive PI that I've ever seen. I felt bad for the defender.

Great post. I always think back to when the Pats would all of the sudden be unstoppable running the ball one game, and then go back to letting Brady do his thing the following game. When teams are selling out for the pass, a competent professional caliber team should be able to take advantage of those situations. It feels like the Bills are moving towards that, and continuity is required for this.

I just want more defensive line reps to keep feeding my addiction! I don't care about anything else right now.. It's a legit problem for any team that hopes to have a healthy qb1 following an evening with our beloved Bills!

A Montana to Young, or a Favre to Rogers situation is worlds better than a Brady to Brady situation my friend. It's so insanely unrealistic to think that the Pats will have the two greatest quarterbacks of all time go back to back. The number of things that had to come together for Brady to become what he is today is also astronomical. That's just for one Brady.

They're probably not showing their best trick plays with KC in mind, but that's about it. The offense and Josh is working through the Tampa-2 defense that it's now being defended by. Thankfully, the defense and run game are coming along very nicely.
