Poor Von. He's a proud player with a highly distinguished football history. This situation must absolutely be eating away at him. His likely Hall of Fame career is ending on a whimper, not a bang.

We don't know what we have in Kyle Allen. He has yet to throw a pass in a regular game situation. All he has done in his garbage time snaps is hand off to a rusher, or kneel down. I do admit to being concerned of having to play him--my memories of his preseason games are pretty frightening. I bet if he threw in a regular season game that it would be a sphincter tightening experience.

No happiness at the end of the holidays--only the reality that I put on 10 pounds and have some work to do. Every year. And it doesn't help if the Bills make a playoff run, because that just leads to more consumption.

Find a way to replace those 32-year old's that are in the backfield.

There is a subset of posters here who have the knives out for McDermott. This past couple of weeks have been very hard on them because it's hard to be negative when the team is winning, even ugly winning. They've had to bite their lip when comes to talking smack about McDermott. Don't be mistaken. The haters are still out there and are chomping at the bit to mouth off with their negativity and I told you so's. Nothing short of a Superbowl win will shut them up. Even then, some will still b----. In all likelihood, the end of the 2023 season is going to be dominated by acrimonious McDermott haters. It's kind of a drag.

How embarrassing for the Bills fan base if so.

Von Miller and Russell Wilson are having a pot luck and watching the Sunday games together. Think of all the GM regret, and tied up cap space in that room.

Which is why so few Bills stay in WNY year round.... and also why so many players have houses in Florida.

If I were to cook for the occasion, I'd make a New England Lobster Roll. That beats chowder by a mile. Food Network 2 live lobsters (I'd use 4 frozen tails) 1 cup mayonnaise 4 teaspoons minced shallot 4 teaspoons lemon juice 2 tablespoons minced tarragon

"it is typically given to a player who overcomes adversity to return to a remarkable level of performance" Damar doesn't meet the criteria. He hasn't achieved a high-level of performance. Sorry to be a downer.

I remember for years, the NFL's highest priority was to have two teams in LA. Not just one, but two. It was more than just Goodell, it was many people who wanted teams in LA. It was imagined to be a ratings golden goose. It just goes to show you--having a collective group of billionaires does not translate into good business sense. 32 owners couldn't read the room and realize LA has little enthusiasm for professional football. The sad part: In the NFL's misguided zeal to have two teams in LA, the fans in San Diego and St. Louis got the screw-job.

Yeah... I got the Amazon email yesterday that they are adding commercials starting on 29 January. I was on the fence as to whether I wanted to continue Prime. Now that they are adding commercials, I may cancel. I think there will be a shakeout in the streaming industry soon. They are all charging too much and people are already stressed by inflation. Something's gotta break.

Probably too late to recommend, and you likely are looking for something in-stock... but I highly recommend https://betamarineusa.com/ they use very reputable Kubota engines. I used them on my boat.

It's a bummer that Floyd was signed to a one-year contract and will be a FA. Hopefully, he re-ups with the Bills.

Who has a bigger problem? the Broncos with Wilson (5 yrs/$245 mil) or, the Bills with Von Miller (6 yrs/$120 mil) Seems to me that the Broncos have the much bigger problem. Though, neither position is enviable.

I hope so. I expected the Cowboys to as well. I guess wishful thinking caused me to fall for a false prophet.

I was in the service, we took all kinds of precautions, lots of "workgroups" and other melodrama. I woke up at 0030 and looked out the window, everywhere had power on and nothing was in flames. I checked the phone, it had a dial tone. "It was all BS" I said to myself and went back to bed.

Fire McDermott, and statistically speaking, you're more likely than not, hiring the next Brandon Staley.

When I was in the service, they rolled a random number and called you in by the last digit of your SSN. One year, I was called 5 times. They were called a "whiz quiz"

I won't have to watch that stupid Waddle end zone celebration again? Priceless.

5 carries for 20 yards. He did "OK' ..not great, just OK. Though, I am intrigued by his above average ball security stats.

I get the impression that the NY Times simulator isn't very sophisticated. I tried googling to see what the algorithm might be, but I couldn't find anything.

Here is something positive---Joe Brady made a successful running game adjustment during the game. Why is that notable? Because Brady is a quarterbacks/passing game coach by training. Despite that, he had the wherewithal to diagnose and fix a running game problem mid-game. The run is important to him. Contrast that to Ken Dorsey the famed QB and QB coach--the running game was a secondary importance to him. His fix to everything was more Allen/Diggs. Dorsey was all about the passing to the neglect of everything else while Brady is the well-rounded coordinator.

Are there non-pivotal moments in football? I kinda thought the whole game was important.

I hope Khalil Mack isn't especially motivated to show Buffalo what they passed on.
