Risk/reward - you have no guarantee that the season tickets you buy will be worth the investment. If you team sucks good luck selling them, and if you have a PSL that may be what is driving you to keep them even if you wanted to get rid of them, bc you dont want to take another loss. The NFL is basically making the investment a bad idea but capitalizing on the popularity of the game screwing fans bc others will line up for the opportunity to get screwed. Going to a game is a ridiculous amount of money, especially to sit with a bunch of idiots in most venues (Bills games being one of the few places that still feel genuine and not a generic experience). Home is far more enjoyable week to week, especially when you realize your season tickets are next to the worst of those people. If you have good people it may be awesome and worth it, but good luck there.

Can we get Keon working out with Moulds and Shakir?

We need players that show up in big moments on the DL against crappy OLs. He hasn’t in the playoffs against backups and people playing out of position much less top notch talent. I do wonder if the Bills wanting him to be lighter as a DE makes him less effective. It really depends on his contract but I don’t love the estimated value.

The guy was left with a bad taste in his mouth playing his ass off and they didn’t give him the ball when they needed to answer the Chiefs. Hard to blame him for wanting to get paid or leave. Regardless of what he says that’s the issue and the Bills coaching deserves the blame. He’s one of very few other A+ players on this team.

The Bills need size and some guys that have high ceilings not just safe calls for solid to good starters but not difference makers in big moments.

However they came about it and what was intended and what was not, the Bills were not playing the game to win. However, it is hard not to be impressed by Milton. I thought the Bills picking him this year was the best backup plan they could have to continue running the offense as if Josh was playing. It’s clear that White and Trubisky are odd fits for the offense that loses a lot of ability to draw attention away from receivers due to the running threat at QB. He isn’t Josh Allen, don’t get me wrong, and teams having schemes and tape to stop them can change the complexion of how a player is viewed. However, the ability to run similar offense and put similar pressure on a Defense is something I’ve never quite understood with who the Bills get to be backup QBs. I understand it’s all about supporting Josh in the QB room, but the backup QBs on the team aren’t good contingencies if they have to step on the field in the clutch.

The way Josh rolls right puts a whole different value on what Brown is capable of athletically and from a protection standpoint. Looking at it from a generalized standpoint is one thing, but for the particularly QB and talent we have Spencer Brown is a lot more important than looking at RT generically. What they cant do without that player and his contract is be effective at extending plays as Josh rolls right which is where a lot of magic happens. The video evidence is right there. It was a smart move to sign him snd that cost is worth every penny.

What’s different this year is that his tackles aren’t good and limited mobility is a much bigger deal when the edges are unpredictably vulnerable… unless the refs swallow whistles on holding (which is entirely possible). They’d be silly to play him too early and jeopardize his availability in the playoffs. The thing is I’m not sure they’ll sit him if he wants to play. I think Houston is a tough matchup for KC even with Mahomes 100% and I think it closes the gap for Bills to get no. 1 seed if Bills take care of business. I don’t think the Steelers are good enough to beat KC with or without Mahomes, but Denver could. Denver is likely playing for seeding because the AFC field looks almost set with colts and fins losing today (and those two teams don’t deserve a playoff spot) so it may come down to the game meaning more to KC than Denver.

Can he play man to man?

He's not a very good coach in close games in crunch time. Aside from that he is a very good coach. Problem is that will give you what you've seen for his a tenure, a perennial playoff team that doesn't bring home the trophy. It's not that they can't, but this was another exhibit of how the team had no counters and no answers on D to a team imposing its will followed by some questionable coaching where every decision had to be the right decision based on the circumstances. I like McDermott but that was a poor showing yesterday. The Rams played really well on Offense, but D had to take way more chances and it was clear that they didn't think they had to.

And two plays where you might have a defensive penalty give the Rams a 1st down.

Yeah its all useless speculation, but I'm kinda glad Brady put it on the coaches like he did. They earned all of that negative narrative.

I think McVay probably would have run all three times, he knows the clock is on his side and he knows there are a lot more things that can go wrong with a pass attempt than a run. It doesn't matter because the timeout was called that made it easy to just run out the clock.

When your team plays so god awful in some aspects it magnifies everything that goes wrong. Could the false start on 4th and 5 have been called on Rams? Yes. Should the PI call on the Rams for tugging on Cooper that was picked up have stood? Absolutely. But..... The Bills coaching was just stubborn and stupid to make those plays matter: I can't stand Brady's voice but he called the coaching out where it was totally blowing it. They kept on playing zone that the Rams were just destroying, and then the end of game sequence was inexcusable.

You just simply don't call a time out at the goal line there no matter what, even if Josh doesn't get in. You have control of getting to the line and getting set to run another play and save your TOs to have more time to stop the Rams from running clock if you don't get the Onsides kick. It's not that they ran and didn't make it. Its that they called the TO at all. That is coaching 101.
