Am I wrong to think that this is the first time we've seen the Bills run pistol?
Nah, they do that sometimes.
The wildcat snap to Cook(?) with handoff option to Josh has a little play tree that goes with it too I'm sure. They showed that just enough to make people worry about it

Interesting discussion. Obviously the one seed is the priority. But if it’s out of reach, give the starters two bye weeks and go into the wild card fresh.
As far as being rusty, that’s a risk you’ve gotta run. But it seems unlikely. McDermott is undefeated coming off a BYE.
Exactly. If KC and Houston both win Wednesday health has to become the priority. Everybody wants the 1 seed to get the bye, well if they get the 2 seed and can give themselves 2 weeks off I don't see the issue. Two weeks of 17 not getting hit or having to jump over or run through anyone is huge.

Only new thing I saw today was Anderson coming in motion before kicking out the DE. They did it a couple times and I'm guessing they showed that because they have something else they want to run off of it. If I had to guess it would be a PA pass to Anderson, after showing that motion, inside the 5 yard line for a cheap TD.

If you're referring to the BS DPI calls, both the WR and DB were engaged within 5 yards of the LOS. The correct call in both cases was no call.
I'm referring to basically every play where he is pulling and tugging on the receiver. It happens very very frequently, usually when the receiver is coming out of their break or when the ball is coming, and if he could stop doing that it would be preferred.

I do. He had tight coverage and made good tackles. This kid will make plays given a chance. He's basically sat all year, so I don't get the negativity. Let him audition in these last games and maybe we can get a draft pick out of it if we decide to cut bait.
Is it legal to play in oven mitts? If so he might have to.

It's easier if you are allowed to mix positions.

I actually very much enjoyed this as it felt complete role reversal from 2001-2019 Patriots games.
There were many games those years the Bills came and gave strong efforts for those teams but the Patriots eventually would rise to the top as they were the better team.
Ditto Buffalo now.
I said the same thing to my wife at halftime "watch, they'll mess it up. I've seen this game from the other perspective like 10 times. They're going to let us score after halftime, then turn the ball over. Then it will spiral and be over."

Dorian makes more plays than Milano at this point. He has been around the ball all game. Not saying long term he is better but give Milano the off season to get healthy.
And yet they played Spector ahead of him by choice.

Headcase... probably.
Good WR... definitely
"Really good" WRs aren't on 4 teams in a 12 month span.
Not being a jackass is a skill set. It's also one that you and he both lack so it doesn't shock me that you wouldn't recognize it's importance.

A lot of us on here were beating the drum for Alabama over SMU in the playoffs. Losing to Clemson should’ve bounced them out of consideration in my book.
Alabama didn't deserve to be in either.
Today didn't show that Alabama should have been in, it showed that 12 teams is too many. 8 was sufficient.

Apparently Tennessee doesn’t belong, and the SEC is garbage. That how this works right?
There was always an argument that Tennessee didn't belong. Their best win was against a fraudulent Alabama.

Yup. And if they don't it tells you a LOT about how the league feels about the guy.

Terrific throw and TD. But Dell is down. Good for him to hold on to the ball
I remember when Jerry Butler did that. A very long time ago.

No way. They’re going to draft someone.
They might do exactly what Atlanta just did.

It’s definitely fixable. Just have to be right once at GM.
It’s like when he took over the Bills. Many were critical of him. He was making some mistakes. But he just had to be right 1 time and everything changed.
I don't think the Bills situation ever got bad with players and agents in the way that it has with the Sabres.

The only spot where I'd disagree is his athletic ability.
While I haven' seen him recently, I saw him plenty in P'burgh and he was literally one of the quickest human beings I have ever seen in my life.
He was still a dipstick that couldn't catch a cold, but by gawd could that boy move.
He's quick, not fast. Different things. And the lack of hands are a legitimate problem.

He drops footballs, isn't terribly fast, and yes is a head case. He is not a "really good WR".

Absolutely no one on this team with any heart.
All the people who matter have already gotten paid. They are playing their way out of town and it's obvious. Terry holds a meeting and says not to expect any major trades. He thinks that will make them more comfortable and settle down. In reality it kicks about half of them in the nuts because they were hoping to be gone so they packed it in even further and got whipped 6-1 by the only team worse than them, then backed that performance up with another 6-3 drubbing. They've given up SIXTY goals in their last 11 games. If that isn't quitting I don't know what is. You go into a scoring drought and lose a couple tough ones? 2-1, 1-0, fine that happens. To get drubbed and give up that many goals over that many games is ridiculous. There is absolutely no excuse for a team to defend that poorly for that long a period of time. Then the big man comes in with what he thinks is support for you and you give up 12 in two nights? GTFO with that.

He's not wrong. It's not smart business to give RBs big second contracts. Just look at his brother for an example why not. 4 years of heavy use, 1 superlative year in there, then he fell off a cliff and was done at age 28. Do we expect James' physiology to be vastly different than his brother's? This is a very tricky contract for the Bills to navigate. Certainly you want to keep him, but the reality of running backs is what it is.
If you're spending money at RB you're not spending it somewhere else. For it to make sense at that position it needs to be a shorter term deal which then basically forces the actual dollars to be higher because SOMEONE will make him a ridiculous offer. Do you tag him and deal with the animosity that comes with that?
Saquon's current deal is actually relatively affordable and it's structed in a very team friendly way with and out AND voidable years at the end along with manageable cap hits. If James is up for something like that (3 yrs/37M/26M guaranteed) it might be doable.
He's the most consistently explosive back we've had in a long time. Maybe Shady for a little while? Then I'm not sure who it would be before that. We've always had pretty good RBs, they're just usually a bit different style, more power, fewer long plays.
