Guy is trash and has been. bust.

Rapp not playing is a big deal and Mxdermott knows it. The whole day-to-day thing seemed like obvious gamesmanship to put doubt in Andy Reid’s mind about creating a game plan to attack the safeties. I doubt Reid fell for it, and I fully expect him to look to exploit Bishop and Hamlin.

2 Things: 1. So happy for Bass, he came up huge today. 2. That might have been Joe Brady’s worst play calling game. The 2nd half was play sequence was so predictable, and some really poor calls in general. He will need to be better next week.

100% agreed, I just think them not having Zay gives the bills a clearer strategy on what to prioritize defending.

I think it is a Big deal if Zay Flowers doesn't play from a scheme/matchup perspective. It feels like with the bills personnel we need to play a bunch of Man with an emphasis on stopping the run. This is hugely problematic with a game breaker like Zay on the field. If Zay does not play, I think the biggest challenge will be stopping the Tight Ends while being stout against the running game.

Do we care if chargers win?

Yuck. One of my only hopes for this game is bass would be solid. We needed him confident going into playoffs. He is a problem. heard and interview with bill belichick and he said the two things he thinks are most important in the playoffs are a top defense and a solid kicker, because that’s the difference in close games between good teams. That statement really dampered my expectations.

Are there scenarios where we would not play Baltimore in round 2 (assuming they win in round 1)?

This game looked so much like many of our playoff games, where the defense has absolutely no answers and loses the game despite Josh Allen being the best player on the field. I fear that the McDermott defense is strong against mediocre/flawed QB’s and offenses, but gets absolutely abused by good QB’s with good scheme/playcalling.

I think they forgot the colums for Rushing Yards and Rushing TD's....

i think opposing OC's are going to target him. I think the football IQ is weak and exploitable.

This aint preseason news, the guys hands (both catching and fumbling) have been an issue since literally his first carry.

Cook does a lot of things well, but I would not be surprised if his star fades quickly. His drops/fumbles are a problem and I don't think he can be trusted, and McD seems like a guy who puts a ton of weight on that. For fantasy football purposes, I am out on cooks and will target Ray Davis late.

Will the bengals be able to pay Chase and Burrow?

For me the lack of excitement I feel about the pick is the lack of conviction the bills seem to feel about Coleman. WR was always going to be the pick, and it’s a glaring need. Beane has shown when he loves a guy and it’s a position of need, he goes and gets the guy. What is obvious to me is the Bills likely had a tier of a few wr’s they were good with and Coleman happened to be the highest guy left at 33. Knowing we likely need a wr to contribute next year to be competitive, it would have felt better if if the optics were that the either moved up or took a guy at 28 because they loved him and had complete conviction he was their guy.
