The Bills have managed to win most of their games with injuries to White, MIlano, Edmunds, Poyer, and several others missing games.
They have the ability to win games without some of these players - the proof is in the pudding. Next man up has been successful. The challenge the Bills have been facing is not just one or two top tier players missing, but five or six, mostly on the defensive side of the ball. We have backup's backups playing.
Josh has been able to get them through it for the most part, but he had an off day - he acknowledged it.
Maybe the time change messed with him. It's the same time-change weekend when they had an away game and a huge upset by Jacksonville last year.
It's the cumulative affect of so many injuries that's causing concern. The Ravens went through this last year and missed the playoffs completely.
And yet the Bills have managed to lose only 2 games by a total of 5 points and are still top seed in the conference at this time.
I'm not concerned. If they can get Poyer, Milano, and a healthy White back on the same field, they'll get their groove back.

Mahomes is the only NFL player that can’t grow a ‘stache better than Josh.
So, at least we have that!-

Quit trying to blame Josh, the d-line, o-line, Bass, or coaching. My wife didn’t wash my lucky shirt. You do the math.
Not worried.

Pretty low standard for ‘national treasure’.

The penchant for people to have such visceral reactions to comedy if it doesn’t grab them is interesting. You don’t get that with drama, action or other genres.
This was a silly skit. Not great. Not awful. Average. That’s it.
if you dissect More Cowbell, Jane You Ignorant Slut, Isn’t That Special, David S Pumpkins to death you can find them pretty unfunny pretty fast.
When it first aired, I had to check out the pumpkin one that many found hilarious.
For me, it was nothing but stupid. Yet, a lot of people raved about it.
Different strokes for different folks.
There used to be a blubbery fat guy in the end zone seats at Falcons games who did the stirring the pot dance and other gyrations when they scored, and he was put on camera for everyone to laugh about. Huh!? How is that funny?
But somehow, it was repeated for years for everyone’s amusement.
The poor guy has either successfully lost weight or has type 2 diabetes and a heart condition, or (hopefully not) succumbed to the effects of gross obesity.
Regardless, the humor mocking him escapes me….as does 95% of anything SNL has put on in decades. -

I get it, small talk about recipes and kids, then a switch flips into angry fan mode. Great. The first time I got it.... then it just became predictable and repetitive.
It needed more/something to flip it on its head. They tried it with the "game is almost over" thing but it didn't work for me.
You’re exactly right about the intended setup. But it’s like one of those looong jokes somebody tells you that leads to a stupid punchline that’s only worthy of a groan. There’s not enough time in a five minute skit to get involved and have empathy with those nameless characters, so again, the redundant insults were just pointless.
-
I’m fascinated by the development of skits like this. On paper, as only a script, how would this look funny?
The actors brought it to life, but even then, not remotely funny (to me).
Jet fans yelling at Bills fans. Repeated 5 or 6 times. Even the same stupid insults were repeated. Yeah, hilarious😏Slight amusement from the unintended irony of comic pig Amy Schumer calling a woman ‘slut’.

A girl I know is hugely into anything horror. Not my thing, but according to her the final (supposedly) offering in the Mike Myers saga, ‘Halloween Ends’, is beyond terrible. She almost walked out of the theatre. That bad.
For anyone who doesn’t know, the Mike Myers mask is a William Shatner face mask. I noticed it the first time I saw Halloween.
If I’d been in charge of the final Halloween flick, I’d have had him finally killed with his victims removing his mask to reveal…..actor William Shatner.
(this is why nobody leaves me in charge of anything) 😏

I absolutely HATE The Beach Boys. Most top recording artists praise them. McCartney loves Brian Wilson and especially their ‘66 LP Pet Sounds.
I think lead vocalist Mike Love (not the one on the Bills) is a giant douche with a vocal range of maybe a single octave.
Their songs are gay AF.
One song I sort of like that has a little R&B vibe is ‘Sail On Sailor’.
Turns out they weren’t pleased with vocal attempts by any band members so they got non-member, singer/guitarist Blondie Chaplin to handle lead vocal.
Ironically, the one song by them that I like is the only one that Brian Wilson hates.
What The Beach Boys sound like to my ears:-

what idiot thought this is actually something critical?
they ONLY played 1 division opponent in 8 weeks
lead off with a 🔥 hot take
then show a graphic that may not catch the eye

CJ Mosley on Bills QB Josh Allen's signature move to leap over defenders:
“If you think about it, it’s going to happen, right?” Mosley said. “So just go in with the mindset like, ‘Hey, MF’er might jump over me. So what? Next man go pop him out the air.’
"Once he gets out of the pocket you’ve got to go plaster him, you’ve just got to go get him.”
That’s actually one of my concerns- that a defender will bait him into hurdling by looking like he’s going for the low tackle, and once Josh is airborne, the defender stands up and turns Josh into a human cartwheel.
In the past, the element of surprise has allowed his hurdles to be successful, but with a higher profile these days and being recognized as a jumper, Josh might be wise to put that move on ice before he ends up with a Don Beebe-like head bounce.-

Good question, my antenna has been down since a recent remodel. Last thing to go back up since we dont ever watch over the air tv, just mainly stream.
I've never had an issue staying digital because if the real apps dont work, the "other" site always did. Now neither are working. Guess I have to get on a ladder tomorrow. Or just head to Whitehall Sunday.
I dont see that error, the stream just never plays after I click through all the ads like the usual song and dance. Seems buffstreams is gone, and the rest arent as reliable.
Looks like Bills-Jets are on locally in Atl again this week.
Bills games have had some of the best TV ratings over the past couple of years, especially in the prime time games. Move over Cowboys - the Bills are now America’s team!-

Yes, I havent been able to get the Bills games on any of the CBS apps lately. They only show CBS News during the games.
I just chalked it up to them seeing my IP is Atlanta even though I'm signing in to a Buffalo-based Spectrum account, or a Paramount+ account.
The worst news is the pirate site that has worked really well the last few years has seems to "bite" the big one. I cant get any of the pirate streams working either anymore, and I'm pretty good at that stuff. Some other friends reported the same problem. Bummer.
If you’re in Atlanta, about the only Bills game that wasn’t shown locally was the Steelers matchup. Don’t you have any other means to get local programming (over the air, basic cable)?

Well, the Broncos pick of Chubb in 2018 may have been a catalyst for the Bills being able to get Josh.

Very disappointed in this move. I have no idea who he is. 😏

I've been a vocal critic of Edmunds before this season. He earned the criticism with poor tackling, getting blocked out of plays, taking bad angles, etc.
But, it's obvious he's stepped up his game this year in a big way. I think he heard the whispers and probably got together with his coaches to help see what he could do to improve.
He's done a great job this season. Give credit where's it's due.

Thats kind of america in a nutshell these days.
At the risk of sound like the ‘get off my lawn’ guy, I suspect it’s largely generational. Not to say there aren’t a- holes in every generation, but I really believe we’re seeing the fruition of a generation of over- indulged brats who were raised by parents who wanted to be ‘their pals’ and were afraid to instill discipline.
The result is a population of self-centered narcissists who have no regard for anything or anyone that doesn’t benefit them. -

lol ***** it dude. you step out into the wild when you go to football games. embrace it, pay no mind, or just watch tv if it bothers you.
That attitude is ignorant and self-centered. Maybe we should allow smoking in all public spaces too. If you non-smokers don’t like it-tough, right?
Having obnoxious drunks pissing themselves- yeah, embrace it.
the problem is that you can’t discern the line between enthusiastic fans who want to enjoy themselves and support their team, and complete idiots puking and pissing themselves who have absolutely no regard for anyone but themselves.

I think they have 21 days to activate him now.
I'm guessing White probably just now needs to get back into the flow and get in football shape. Dane and the rookies have done well for the most part. No need to rush IMO.
Since the injury, the Bills record, including thanksgiving and playoffs is 11-4.
2 of those losses were OT games against Brady and Mahomes.
it will be great to get him back on the field, but their post-Tre record indicates there’s no need to rush him back.

"Hey, hey, Bills, you cant have tents to have shade on the sideline because we don't have tents to have shade on the sideline! It is only fair!"
Meanwhile:
Making it worse is the idiotic NFL rule that if the Dolphins choose not to use the misting/cooling blowers that can give some relief, the opposing team can't use them either. I honestly believe that these issues will be brought up at one of the owners meetings. This is about more than fairness (which it isn't) - this is about the serious health concerns that can arise from over-heating.

I don't think its a great argument either way. Tua wasn't the reason we lost. Just a series of unfortunate mistakes by the offense and missed opportunities by the defense. We will get them in December.
Nevermind that the Bills basically fielding their preseason team, if the Dolphins were on the sunny side in that heat, I give the Bills the edge.
I truly believe that the short pass that missed McKenzie in the end zone was just Josh running out of gas and getting sloppy.
So, to me the argument that they lost to an inferior team is more about not having a level playing field.-

I think the key will be no trap games. We got really screwed on that Jags loss last year and in the back of my mind I keep wondering which team could do that to us again. Divisional opponents could, Patriots are getting on a roll having won 2 in a row, Jets have won 3 in a row, . Vikings are 5-1. I think we've faced our toughest opponent already in KC, but I don't like that short week against the Lions. The Bengals game could be big, but at the same token it does seem like our Bills are way more dialed in this year.
The Lions will have a short week too. That gives us a mini-bye before going to New England.
With numerous injuries the Bills beat the defending super bowl champs, Ravens, the Titans-top AFC seen 9 months earlier, and just defeated perennial juggernaut Chiefs. They barely lost to the Dolphins. If Josh wasn’t running on fumes in that heat, he completes the pass to McKenzie and Bills win.
Unless Josh goes down, I don’t have any worries regarding remaining opponents.
They may have an off day and stumble against the Jets or some other inferior team, but I believe they’re focused and will be top seed.-

She was telling him to ask Josh to settle down after he leaped over Reid.
Don’t think so.
Going by her body language and the request (“would you tell him to settle down a little bit?”) it was most likely directed at the people he was with- possibly the person filming.
The guy was obnoxious and obviously needed a lot of attention, making sure everyone he saw knew he was Diggs’ uncle.
It’s great being an enthusiastic fan, but I suspect he’s one of those guys that’s always loud and just never shuts up.

NFL Week 10 - Vikings at Bills post game thread
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Way to jinx us Fox sports with your stupid statistic about the Bills not losing a game when leading at the half by 14 since 1960-something.
