Dallas did what every team has done, they called our bluff. They said "we'll give you a light box even when you run it down our throat because eventually you'll stupidly throw the ball downfield and waste a down and that will end the drive." This was the first game in a long time that we called their bluff back at them. Hopefully we keep at it.

Someone help me understand why any team would pay him more than what the Chiefs paid MVS? What skill set are they paying him for? He can't separate, he has an amateur level catch technique, he doesn't fight for the ball, he can't run short routes... Is someone paying over $10M AAV for a blocking WR?

Dawkins is having the best year of his career. I was wrong about him before the season.

There is technically a path for that not to happen, but it's less than .1% likely. Basically the Dolphins would have to beat the Cowboys and Ravens, Bengals would have to win out, Colts would have to win out, Browns would have to lose to only the Bengals but win their other 2 games. And probably some other games would have to go a certain way too.

Hire Dorsey back tomorrow, just to have the pleasure of immediately firing him again. Brady has been unreal.

Tough week because so many players deserve a game ball. I usually try and restrict it to no more than 7. Cook Dawkins Brown Brady Floyd Poyer Johnson

So let's assume we win out but Miami beats the Cowboys and Ravens. For us to get in as a wildcard we need 2 of these teams to drop to 7 losses: Browns (currently at 5 losses) Bengals (6 losses) Colts (6 losses) Texans (6 losses) Browns play the Texans and Bengals still. We should root for them to win out. Texans and Colts still play so that is a freebie to knock one of them down to 7 losses. Bengals still play the Chiefs and Browns. I'd be shocked if they win both of those. So basically if we win out we are all but guaranteed a wildcard spot.

Why are the Cowboys subjecting Dak to these hits?? Get him off the field and ready for Miami.

How about this - only three Bills have receptions today. Only two have 2+ receptions. Never thought I'd see the day.

A lot of teams have figured out you can neutralize Parsons by running the ball right at him. Brady didn't re-write the book today, like most great OCs he just stuck with what works. Football can and should be really simple.

If no other reason than to prove they can play well on the road, I certainly hope they come into Miami with a chip on their shoulder next week.

It's beginning:

I know that INT technically hurt us as far as yardage, but man this defense deserved one. They were unbelievable at every level today.

Ugh Jordan you alligator armed it!

I bet the Bills defense could

And also because he has dropped the ball too much and had trouble separating. But he made it all up on that incredible one handed catch in the rain to keep the drive alive.

What a freaking catch!!

I genuinely hope not! Our downfield passing offense isn't there this year. Don't waste downs. Just keep picking up chunks of yards and move the chains. That's what the league has turned into this year.

I don't care. Just catch the ball and get tackled without losing it. He's done that 100% of the time this year so in my eyes he's a perfect punt returner.

Man even our blitzes are getting home today. This is just our day.

I'm always a fan of running the ball more in this offense. We are gifted so many easy opportunities from defenses selling out to stop the pass. Take those easy opportunities and everything else will open up.

A lot of teams have very good CBs but few have very good LBs. So if you're looking for a mismatch, that's usually a good one.

So literally that entire drive was Allen runs, RB runs, or RB targets. No WR or TE usage. I have no clue if that's sustainable for a deep playoff run but if that's our identity now stick with it until someone stops it.
