    The Raiders gave them more trouble than other divisional opponents in recent years.  This is a different Raiders team but Maxx Crosby means Mahomes is in for a long day.  He makes it a point to touch Mahomes and get in his ear on every play.  We will see, but that division looks to be getting more competitive while ours may be the worst in football.

    We are like the Brady lead Patriots, incredibly weak division which we can feast on the other three teams, an extraordinary advantage.  Raiders being "run" by two ancient has beens, Geno Smith  and Pete Carrol.

    I have a hard time enjoying it while seeing the Eagles allowed to false start on every Tush Push.

     

    The NFL better get this addressed before we play them. And better not wait until after the Eagles beat us in the playoffs (Super Bowl) to fix it like they've historically done.

    Totally agree.

     

    There were multiple potential penalties on multiple tush push plays, on both sides/

     

    NFL is certainly going to being it up again this off-season and I think they get the 2 votes to ban it they need.

    In that scenario, the clock runs down enough that it doesn't leave BAL enough clock anyway, plus it gives the Bills a nice calm, clock stopped chance at the kick.

     

    Honestly, Harbaugh's strategy of making the Bills run out the FG team and possibly make a mistake almost worked. We left a guy unblocked who almost got the ball. 

     

    That is the much more interesting question about this game and we dont have Smiley to kick around anymore.  We were inches away from total disaster.

    To me, that decision was a no brainer, cramping or no cramping.

     

    I don't really get the 2nd guessing.  Yes, you have to respect Allen's ability to drive the Bills down w/ that amount of time left, but if you go for it & don't make it, you're just handing the game to the Bills.  

     

     

    Agreed.  All revisionist history.  Now Harbaugh is an idiot because he didnt go for it on fourth done, especailly since the "analytics" were to go for it on 4th down.

    You really think coaches are geniuses for 56 minutes, then turn into blithering idiots in the final 4?  There's a lot of luck and breaks to being a genius.

    Please dont put words in my mouth and no I dont think that.  Yes obviously thrre i a lot of luck involved, I am not going to state the obvious to cover every contingency.

     

    But if Harbaugh was such a superior coach and his team wouldn't consistently fold in critical moments.  IMO Harbaugh as much as anyone blew that game to have such a classic meltdown.

    A rookie WR wasn't a good move for us at that time, and I'd argue Diggs had a bigger impact for us than Jefferson would have due to veteran experience and leadership. Diggs stepped in and was instantly the most impactful WR the team ever had. Rookie WRs are a massive gamble.

    Like Diggs or not, he did a tremendous job and was a good actor for the first 3 1/2 years, at the end not so much.

     

    The Development of Josh can largely be attributed to the rapport he had with Diggs.

    Accurate but his kicks have too low of a trajectory. 

    Agreed, he really hits a knuckle ball but I like having him as a safety kicker for sure, also wouldn't mind a direct snap to him and run for it.

    Agree with the second part, but you have to admit Tasker looked like a choirboy in a kind of psychopathic way -- still does.  Like Lenny Dykstra (who looked innocent when very young).  Plus, my man Tasker played with unbridled aggression from the first play I ever saw of his.  Dude was just a baller, and I am sincerely hopeful that is in Cole.  I want to see it.  In the NFL. Let's go Cole!  I think he is a key for the D - a fact that is noted, but I think underrated. 

    There was one play hoping someone can find or rememeber.  I was in NYC (actually New Jersey)  watching the Bills dont recall Jets or Giants, Tasker is the punt returner,  as he was catching the ball he gets walloped.  Now that would be an easy penalty but not back then.  Not only did he not fumble he immediately popped back one, one of the toughest player reaction I had ever seen, like Moorman reaction after the Sean Taylor hit in the Pro Bowl.  Those were the days.

    Wasn’t the WR Haven Moses on the Bills roster?  Seems to me he had a nice career with the Broncos 

    Yes and Yes

     

    Two theories on why Lamonica was traded away for next to nothing.

     

    1) He was a good looking guy and was banging Kemp's or Ralphs wife, cant recall which.

     

    2) The AFL was really struggling as were the Raiders franchise.  Although  hidden for decades, Ralph got a chunk of the raiders  ownership (against the rules)  by giving al davis $250,000 to keep the Raiders alive.  The Bills had two great QB and gave the Raiders Lamoinica to get some excitement for Oakland and the AFL.

    Jordan Poyer got an unneccessary roughness penalty that gave Bass the opportunity to hit a 61yd field goal. Bills Win. 

    Good call but that play I think did some serious damage to Coleman, he missed the next three games I would argue he wasnt the same when he came back.  This was an offseason I believe he desperately needed and should be vastly improved.

    Jerry should trade him. Dak ain’t the guy and they need to find his replacement. I could see the pats make this move

    Dak "cant" be traded, Jerry is old and doesnt have time to retool to win again. and his ego went allow him to go scorched earth trade him, micah, away and got a massive boatload of cheap picks, heck while at it trade away CeeDee Lamb.

    We ran a heavy set the entire game and the Cowboys played a light box and had the linebackers playing deep....never adjusted.  That was a coaching fault, not Parsons.

    i forgot about that, very bizarre, who was the dallas DC?   was that the dillard jason garret era?  so much for jerry jones as a competent GM 

  13. 1) Steelers.  Have a disastrous losing season and we can end the eternal debate about Mike Tomlin being a great coach.  Bonus, we  are finally rid of A Rodgers.

    2) Chiefs dont win their division

    3) Pete Carrol is a flop in Vegas.

     

     

    Bills:

     

    1) Super Bowl, may not win but get there

    2) On defense, at all three levels the Bills have old and injured players, Bosa, Milano, and White.  Two out of the three will be all pros.

    3) Coleman emerges as a legit #1 WR.

    Bengals released Zack Moss

    Zach Moss, Singletary lite.  i never understood that pick.  Another low ceiling slow rb.  how do you get cut before pre season games unless it was financial or how he regressed.   the thought if them alone wants me to keep Cook.
