I’m assuming exactly what it costs ($) in electricity to charge it.

How much did I pay for gas today? Zero. Just took delivery of my new EV this past week. I ordered it in January! 🙄

Wait! You guys are using the internet to access this forum? How long has this been available? 😉

The Bills need to fix the Right Tackle position. Everyone can debate the holding call on Dawkins, but if you go back and look at that final series, the Bills overcame that penalty in one play and we’re sitting at 2nd and 2…when Josh is sacked, fumbles, and they’re left way behind the sticks. Total failure at Right Tackle. Not sure if Spencer is the answer but his absence was obvious on that play and it might have seriously injured our franchise QB.

Was it copper lined? 😉

Tibs, with all due respect, what your example shows is just how inaccurate the polling is these days, and has been for the last few election cycles. I cannot blame either the left leaning or right leaning media on this one. They don’t take the time or invest the resources to do much more than read the polls they’re given to read. The problem isn’t the media here.

This is strictly anecdotal but out here in midnight deep blue California there were almost ZERO television ads for a ballot measure to make abortion part of the State’s Constitution. Instead, the ballot measure we heard about for the last six months day in and day out was regarding Indian Casinos and Sports Gambling. “Dobbs on the Ballot”….hardly.

I stayed away from this site for a day or so. It’s a lot like the football side after a Bills loss….although I typically jump in over there.😉 So here’s what we learned on Tuesday: we still have a very divided, entrenched electorate that nudged (not shoved) against the President’s agenda. And when the dust settles, Nancy will no longer be the Speaker, and the margin won’t make a rats bit of difference, just like the last two years of a flat out tie haven’t stopped Chuck from acting like he’s in charge. One more thing…we also learned that a few of these States need some serious oversight into how long it takes them to process votes. Unacceptable. Thanks

But we didn’t play the Chiefs every week…thankfully.

My phone shows 40 degrees but no precipitation. And before you ask….it’ll be 72 and sunny in Palm Springs.😎

You’ve got to be able to close. As they say, it’s hard to win in the NFL. The Bills have to get over this close-game hump if they want to reach their ultimate goal. There’s no two ways around it.

Again we agree. My problem was the plays in between the holding penalty and the long bomb. It was still 1st down after the holding penalty. Pick up the yards and move the chains. Really unfortunate ending.

I’m not sure that’s what Rodgers meant when he asked for more weapons? 😉

All true, but I didn’t like the strategy. Just pick up a couple of quick first downs, move the chains and kick the field goal. Assuming you’re in field goal range and there’s still time, take a single shot for the win. While it’s of course not ALL on Josh, he’s the one getting the big bucks to win these games in the clutch. Watching Brady carve up the Rams bit by bit, to get his team across the finish line on the final drive Sunday was frustrating as a Bills fan, but is the standard of what’s expected.

You get the ball to your MVP QB with two minutes to play and down by only three points there’s a clear expectation that he’ll get you into position for at least a look at a game tying field goal. It didn’t happen.

I look at it differently. The Bills need to win close games down the stretch. They failed against both the Dolphins and Jets. Someone has to step up and make a play.

Maybe we shouldn’t be wearing the white pants then. 😉

I’m guessing you’re right, but taking our best receiver off the field seems like a ridiculous strategy…considering the quality level (or lack thereof) of those replacing him.

Diggs has been great… for sure. And not to flame on him but they seem to be taking him out a lot. I don’t recall him going to the sideline as much in previous years. Every time he makes a big catch, the next shot is of him with his helmet off watching the upcoming play from the sideline. Has that been his routine in previous seasons?

Lots and lots of doom and gloom on here and rightly so but in the end this all comes down to making a few key plays in the clutch late in the fourth quarter or on a final drive when the game is on the line. We’re 6-2 and in BOTH games we had the ball and the opportunity to win the game and failed. It’s a real problem. The Bills got the ball with two minutes remaining on Sunday, and while they had no timeouts they ended up not needing them because they couldn’t pick up a single first down. Not good! You’re not going to beat everyone by two touchdowns. You have to learn how to win close games like against the Jets and Dolphins. This week’s opponent, the Vikings, are 7-1 partly because they’re getting it done in the clutch. It’s about winning!

When it does end, can we get rid of all the damn candidate signs littering my entire neighborhood? Is this all really necessary?

Nobody “f’s” with a Biden! Or puts baby in a corner….so I’ve heard.

I’d make a snarky comment about the price but I’m still ‘digesting’ your shopping list. 😉

Everyone knows what the Bills defense is. They're built to sit back and force you to make a mistake. Plain and simple! However....that defense was created first and foremost to stop Mahomes (and other top tier QBs) in the playoffs. With that said, I cannot understand why we're not blitzing more against younger, less capable QBs. The roster should be capable of switching it up depending on who the opponent is. Looking ahead to Sunday, I'm curious what anyone thinks would be the best approach against a check-down artist like Kirk Cousins.

What do the Bills have to lose? When a first round pick doesn't pan out, I generally think it's because he needs a change in scenery and coaching.
