I think he's a goner at the end of the year. However the Bears typically don't fire their HC during the season.

10 for 10 for only 86 yards is such a classic Goff statline. And that's WITH a deep TD.

Did Stevenson even get moved to the active roster? I know his practice window was opened but I didn't think he was back yet.

The Lions not wearing their throwbacks has ruined my Thanksgiving. Tossing the turkey out now.

So let it be written....so let it be done. My 3 Bold Predictions for today: 1. Motor and Breida combine for 150 yards and 2 TD. 2. Moss will be inactive. Kumerow will suit up again. 3. Allen throws 1st Red Zone INT late on the 2nd quarter. Allen rebounds by tossing 4 TDs today.

Head to a bar.

Actually always liked Brees. Even in San Diego.

I can't explain it but I have always completely hated the Saints. No clue why in the past. Now I hate them because their coach is a Malcolm in the Middle as an adult looking snarky, over rated, clown. I also never can trust a guy named after one of the Chipmunks (Alvin Kamara). And I never have been a fan of the French. They also drafter Ironhead Heyward and I wanted Buffalo to get him.

Bills win. Don't care about the score. Could be 41-16. Could be 3-0. Don't care...get a win and go into a mini bye week and get right. I am feeling like we will see Josh's 1st red zone INT today though. Seems to be running less inside the 5 than he ever has before and trying to force the ball. I think one bites him today.

Jake Kumerow. My expectation for this game is that he will be active and take Moss's spot on the game day roster. With Special Teams Jesus out there it well allow Breida to be more involved in the offense. It also leads into being more willing to involve McK in the offense and if he gets banged up they would likely move to Breida to field kicks. So being able to use 2 quick threats on offense as opposed to keeping McK relegated to KR/PR and Breida's involvement in the offense is the results. Kumerow doesn't even have to make a tackle to have a HUGE trickle down affect on the outcome for this. I know you didn't ask me but...wouldn't shock me to see Bobby Hart at RT and Willims at RG this week.

Bad part was every time he handed one out it was nullified by a holding penalty.

The team may be a tad soft....but there are huge sections of the fanbase that are even softer.

Would have thought they would have loved to get Cam back in Carolina in the spotlight. Their losses though...I think this is going to be a really good game.

What if I told you that Star never even existed in the first place. His reputation was created in a lab to fool football fans. "Ryan Bates" as well. What you see on game days are 3 "little people" standing in each others shoulders pretending to be a 300lb single individual.

Always liked Lindsey. Had some burst in Denver. That said he's not a guy that will get yards on his own. Behind our line he would be pretty useless IMO.

Give them an extra PB&J and a few more orange slices until they play better. Pickled beets are for winners.

I've been pondering this since it was posted. Wanted to gather my thoughs a bit and not post off emotion from an embarrassing home loss. Yes, I still believe this is a playiff caliber team. The talent is there. I also still think we win the AFCE. I believe once the playoffs start it's a new season and if we go in health enough and in a rhythm we can make and win a Super Bowl. Once the playoffs start the AFC is still wide open. KC seems to be figuring things out a bit on defense. They are going to be dangerous. And if we played them I could see them wanting to show earlier this season was a fluke. Same could be said if we run into Tennessee or Indy or the Steelers squeek in. We will have a chip on our shoulder. Never underestimate a team playing to prove something. Pride is a wonderful motivation. That said, I think Tennessee has accidentally set themselves up well as the favorite. Had Henry not gotten hurt they would have run him into the ground by the playoffs. Now they will have him back fresh and ready to roll, likely with a 1st round bye. They will have Julio back by then as well. And before the season started many laughed at their defense but they have played pretty well this year lead by the development of Simmons. No matter the reason Buffalo has set themselves up for an uphill battle come playoff time, but I think if they can get healthy and figure out a few things between now and then there isn't a reason they can't run the table in the post season.

Was saying Sunday that this team doesn't have a Kyle Williams type. Or a Zo type. The kind of player that when they speak everyone pays attention. Poyer and Hyde, to their credit seem to be trying to fill that role but I don't think they have the same amount of clout that a Kyle Williams would bring. This years team just doesn't seem as close knit as they have been. Players that we have let walk like Shaq Lawson, John Brown and Jordan Phillips...while limited on the field brought a lot of unity to the team and have we have yet to replace that.

The locker room dynamics change from year to year. John Brown is gone too and even thought at the end of his Bills tenure he wasn't offering much on the field he and Josh seemed close as well. I've worked places that had high turnover in employees and when you lose several people you enjoy working with work just seems....off. Not the same. But it's the nature of the buisness and if Allen is letting the departure of some of his friends drag him down (and I don't agree that it's the case) then he really wouldn't be mentally tough enough to lead an NFL team.

I'm your huckleberry. I'm take that bet. If this is his last year I will pay you $200. If it's not...leave the board. For good. No new usernames. Just go. I will even send the money to a Mod to hold so I cannot welch.

Funny that you say. Just went on their message board and they LOVE this contract for him. I'd say 75% of them approve of the move. https://saintsreport.com/threads/taysom-gets-a-real-contract-extension-4yr-40-million-22-gtd-at-signing-with-qb-raise-clause.457512/

On the one hand...reasons like this are way the Saints have no money. On the other hand HOW can they even afford this?

Numbers. Cool. Almost 35% of the team's cap is spent on 10 players (only 4 play at a time) along the DL. You cannot field a competitive team that will march deep into the playoffs routinely with paying that much with such little production. I don't give a fart what the "numbers" say until the Jets, Dolphins and Texans are the quality of teams we meet in the playoffs. Regular season numbers are trash. If you are satisfied beating the bottom barrel teams and stuffing the stat sheet against them, cool beans. However this is totally ignoring that any team with the slightest HINT of a power running game (like the Titans, Steelers, Ravens, Chiefs, Colts...you know...teams we would actually see come playoff time.) will routinely pound this team. All while spending big bucks on players that are really nothing special and ignoring and undervaluing things like offensive linemen. Quality running backs. Depth. A flipping punter that can kick the ball away in less than 19 seconds.

What is there to wait and see about? The problem of investing too much into part time players is not a new issue this week or even this year. Yesterday was a punctuation mark, for sure. But Again...It challenge anyone to find a game where the fresh legged defensive line has taken over a game in McDermott's tenure here it the end on a game. The philosophy, while on paper has merit. In actual applience is actually a big reason why we have money for the Bobby Harts and Brian Winters of the NFL but not for a quality starter. It's a huge issue that doesn't pay proper divided.

What's interesting to me about this statement is that the Bills really started to taper off right around the time of Beasley's whole "They boo me at home" Twitter rant. Not saying at all that he's a cancer but the timing is suspect at the very least in my eyes.
