I hear you from a competitor's perspective, but on 4th down he fundamentally played the ball wrong. He was posted up perfectly. Just gotta violently rake at it/spike it and knock it DOWN or OUT there, not play it like a WR looking to haul it IN. He tried to catch it and gave Jefferson a chance to make a play on it. Whatever. That being said: I love me some Cam Lewis. Always will. INVALUABLE depth across every position in the secondary. Such a good football player.

Yeah, it seems likely that the Brady and the Bills will seek to break a "selling" Miami team's will tomorrow. As always, I'd like to see them do that with some aggressive downfield shots mixed in. Scoring points quickly can help limit wear and tear on everyone with a one-dimensional opponent offense and fewer high leverage snaps and situations, but it seems like the Bills would generally rather dominate the ball and shorten the game. Gotta throw up my amateur hands, I guess, and hope they can continue to defeat top opponents the way they did last week. Miami ain't a "top" opponent objectively, but they ARE divisional and they DO often stick around against the Bills.

Shame about that 4th down play against Justin Jefferson. Otherwise, he's been so steady when called upon, all things considered. Even played some boundary for the Bills in his 1st (albeit very brief) start against Tennessee, if memory serves.

Calling it "Hard rocks stadium" is a masterful double entendre, given the type of dentally challenged creatures I was surrounded by a couple times back in the early aughts.

Hancock has always been a tweener, for sure. Can play CB, especially NCB, but can also play S. I'll bet he has a future in this league. Like Cam Lewis tbh. Take a gander at Cam Lewis's numbers, they're not terrible:

Some mention already of Jordan Hancock in this thread, and so it's fun to point out his only slightly lesser overall athleticism (compared to Bishop) despite his significantly lesser draft position. He also played significant snaps for a championship program. The dude is an explosive athlete and good football player. He just has smallish hands and shortish arms, and probably needs to pack on a few more lbs.

Or his 1st playoff game, tbh. Wait, is that unusual for you?

Yeah but you know how some guys test fast but don't play fast (or vice versa)? Well, Tremaine Edmunds tests big, but during actual full contact games he doesn't play big.

I think the OP is ABSURDLY overvaluing the Bills current/recent WR talent as compared to most top NFL teams...however the example above DOES lend credence to the notion that there is obvious meat left on the bone each week even with our current WR room. In this clip, it MUST be the early flash of pressure that brings Allen's eyes down to an underneath crosser, right? Playing it safe, I guess? Nonetheless you just GOTTA climb the pocket and smoke one downfield to the third level, to Samuel, even if it means taking a hit upon release. That's an open intermediate chunk. Damn it.

Couple clever moments with Tasker, but overall, super stiff and corny.

Netflix original programming is intentionally obvious and literal throughout, making it fine background fodder for simpletons. It's a documented effort to eliminate intellectually challenging/ambiguous content. Thereby accelerating our cultural decline. That being said, sign me up for some Antonio Brown content!

No one ever gets hurt going fast down snowy slopes.

Groot lacks the violence and explosion you're looking for in this unique role. He can be stout af and disruptive at times, but he doesn't have the combat hands and twitchy flash needed to cause chaos. He was the immediate replacement for Hoecht last week, and it wasn't terrible. He's got some tools, but maybe needs to get away from the length of NFL OTs to get going. Jackson has much to learn about pad level and awareness, but he flashes the kind of frenetic, combative length you admire in a pass rusher. Obviously, he's an explosive physical specimen. We've seen Bills Day Two defensive draft picks show steep improvement after year one (Bernard and Bishop are recent examples). He's got the tools to invest some patience in.

Suggestion? Yeah, don't. (Effing hate that stadium and all the Miami "fans" who attend parts of the games. Terrible place lol)

Kinda crazy what Indy did. Such a high draft price (plus a young day two WR) for the highest paid CB in NFL history who also has issues with penalties and run support effort/physicality. He's so gifted as a press man boundary corner, but can he rediscover all-pro play without all the clutching and grabbing he got away with earlier in his career? It's a fine line for these aggressive, long-limbed cover corners. One recalls dominant NE and KC and SEA (and others) DBs over the years who, if the broadcast or later film reviews allowed, could be seen holding and tugging and mugging so dang often that refs would get desensitized and ignore it for untargeted routes and also just more broadly**. Or not even call it at all in such glaring examples as the Saints "losing" to the Rams in the 2018 NFCCG. Will the refs give him some wiggle room on a defense known to be very physical overall? Would highlight and reward one of the most aggressive trading seasons in memory. **Not unlike the way KC's OTs, especially Taylor, have lined up too far off the LOS and/or false started and/or held on nearly every single passing play for years but only get flagged once or twice per game at most.
