10/11 3rd down defense has to be some sort of record in the McD era. How many punts have been blocked in McD era? Those are the diff. Stop 2 of those and you likely win the ball game.

We can’t have the ST errors be the difference. Reid Furgson can’t get walked back 6 yards into the punters lap. I dunno, but I put this on McD, Babich and ST simply blowing it.

I think Elam should have played. You would have to think he’s a better man defender than 5th year journeyman Ingram. In case zone defense isn’t working.

McDermott had his worst game of the season. Not very Allen like today.

Milano got juked on one run so bad I felt worth for him. Reminded me of Poyer and Hyde trying to tackle Tyreek on the 13 seconds game, then I remember Milano was also whiffing on that one. That was 3 years ago. Dude seems better as a 4-3 LB, and Dorian is clearly more explosive.

I think Kincaid’s being a knee they will be even more conservative, and balance the risk of reinjury vs coming back fully healthy. I see them both out this week and possibly returning vs Det.

37-17 Buf dub

Bills 14-13-07-03-37 Rams 07-07-03-00-17

The streak will continue. 8 passing, 4 rushing, 2 receiving.

Depends on the opposing offenses personnel. 12 personnel probably will want to stay in our Base Nickel. This works great against a team like KC that has more pass catching TEs. 22 personnel with Ricard at FB, (Andrews, Likely/6th OL), I say match with 4-3. To make it even “doper” McD could keep Taron on the field and take out a safety and play cover 1. This way you still have the ability to play zone and avoid PA rub routes and cap Flowers running vertical or overs.

If the Packers & Bills beat the Lions in the next two weeks, then Barkley could effectively sit out Week 18. If he’s already at 2,000 yards after 16 games there is your MVP. I have no qualms with that logic. But if the Bills beat the Lions and the Lions finish as the 1 seed, then one can argue Allen is the betting favorite. Certainly record matters as Lamar has all but fallen out of the top 3, and Burrow is having a career year yet sits at 4-8. Stats matter, but winning matters most. In the context of 2,000 yard rushers Barkley achieving this milestone after game 16 looks lesser of a feat than those who rushed for 2,000 in a 16 or 14 game season. OJ ran for 2,000 for a team that didn’t even make the playoffs. Barkley rushing for 2,000 yards and not even being his teams leading touchdown rusher also is a knock.

He’s better now than he was 7 years ago. The platitudes and cliches aside that guy really has me believing in those simple philosophies. He’s getting the most out of his talent because of his preparation and connection with his players. I think the decision to entrust the D to Babich and decision to move on from Dorsey were absolutely critical in elevating the team. 8 years in and still finding ways to help his team answer the challenge week after week.

That could happen, even if the Bills win in Detroit and Allen is the main factor Barkley beating up on a 2nd place schedule gets him the nod. It’s the way it works.

Interesting decision on 1st down - love it

The fans seem pretty jacked up, can the 12th man be the difference.

No pressure

Defense needs to come out and play their best drive of the year.

Samuel moonwalked in. He’s bad.

If they don’t want to man us Shakir will eat their lunch.

Bills time for a drive here. Let’s go!

All it takes is one play to be made by Buffalo

Bills staying committed to the run smartly

Passing game is looking good, and starting to open up running lanes.

Ryan Vandermark better be ready to block.

Buffalo Joe. I feel the ST demon gonna make 2 huge plays that turn the tide of the game.
