The Red King

That and the Bills always start slow. Their 1st quarter production is left in the dust by the 2nd-4th. They were leading in the quarter we're worst at.

If both teams play their best game, Buffalo wins. I firmly believe that. This game is going to come down to mistakes. Allen really needs to take what the defense gives him. While a home-run bomb is nice, a slow, methodical drive down the field kills a lot of time and keeps Burrow off the field. This will be the crux of the game. That said, I am confident. IMHO, this game is not Buffalo's game to win, so much as their game to lose.

Um...Josh can be making mistakes and Dorsey can be as well. These are not mutually exclusive. Someone commenting on Josh's mistakes does not excuse Dorsey's.

Not in the least. I respect his great ability and can see past him beating us. I'd have nothing but respect for him, were it not for one thing. The never-ending whining. Someone so much as sneezes on him, or enters his personal space or, heaven forbid, touch his sacred body he runs off crying to the refs. And all too often there is a flag thrown only after he started whining. Never seen any of the great ones do this. Before anyone says it, yes, all QBs embellish to a point, even Josh. But nobody does it with the frequency and utter lack of subtlety and discretion that TB12 does.

Gotta be Daboll. His 1st season is eerily similar to McD's. Change the culture and take a team nobody expected to the playoffs where they really shouldn't be, based on the roster. Then he one-upped him by winning his first playoff game against a tough Vikings team that seemed to have a horseshoe crammed up its rear all season. Blame whatever you want, but we didn't beat them. Giants did. It's rare, but I think this year's CotY is obvious.

Do they do division games for these international ones?

https://www.msn.com/en-us/sports/nfl/nfl-world-furious-with-league-s-announcement-tonight/ar-AA16nRiP I started a post awhile back asking why we couldn't use a chip to determine where the ball is/was. Apparently they can do this, determining the Ravens QB was 0.5 yards short of the goal line.

KC fans should be thrilled that JAX has one less day to rest, recover and game plan. Bills never lost a home playoff game until they did (was at that one >.>)

During yesterday's game? Because that's all this thread is about.

Look at the Patriots' run. While there were a couple years they looked dominant, many years they looked real good, but flawed. They looked beatable. But they kept winning all the same. We may not look 14-3, but we're 14-3. Two of our three losses were to this year playoff teams, and all three were by 3 or less points. And all this while decimated by injuries. We looked rough yesterday, but divisional games often are. Look at the Ravens/Bengals game. We are who we are, and this team can grind out a win against anyone. They may not be the Tyson they were Weeks 1 and 2, but they're doing just fine as a Foreman right now.

Oh, and you're absolutely right. Only an idiot would think this thread would become a discussion about the big picture. I'm not an idiot, so I never thought it would happen, thank you. (Lesson here: If you are going to call someone an idiot, you'd best not screw up your own post.)

If someone is not interested in the specific topic they could, you know, not reply at all. Crazy talk, I know. 🙄

And if we beat them we'd be the one seed right now. They lost four out of sixteen, we lost three. Basic math.

Oh my god... READ THE ORIGINAL POST, PEOPLE! THIS IS ABOUT TODAY'S GAME ONLY! NOT HIS PERFORMANCE SINCE HE WAS DRAFTED. NOT HIS PERFORMACE THIS SEASON. JUST...TODAY. For all of you that read my OP and responded on-topic, thank you. For those that did not and just knee-jerk replied completely off-topic, go and learn how thread titles and OP actually gives you an idea as to the point of the thread and what the subjects of discussion should be. Sorry for yelling, but I'm getting sick of people not even reading my initial post and then just rambling off-topic. Should I use smaller words? Ahem... Edmunds good this game. Don't care what you think rest of time. You think he play good this game only, too? Edmunds is two syllables, so I hope that doesn't throw people off. I can't make this any easier, people.

So you don't think he had a great game today? Because that's all this thread is about.

I think some people didn't bother to read my OP. I was specifically referring to this game. I even said it doesn't need to change critics' minds. I thought even the critics had to admit he had a great game today. Instead we get people talking about his season and whether or not he should be resigned...which is completely off-topic. It saddens me that some people just see the name Edmunds and fire off a reply without even bothering to read the original post and see what the topic is actually about in the first place.

Okay, I know some on the board has been harsh on him, in a lot of cases rightfully deserved. But can we take a moment and all agree he had a monster game today, making big plays at just the right time? The critics among you can keep your opinion, but even you have to admit for this game at least he was clutch.

Yeah, I was raging at the screen multiple times for that reason.

I seem to recall saying division games worry me, no matter what. They gotta clean up their act, but that was a weird game all around. I think it was a hard reality check. Hopefully it shocks Josh into realizing he doesn't (and shouldn't) try and hero ball it the whole game. McD and Dorsey really need to have a talk with him. I still think Buffalo can beat anyone, but they need to settle down and play a disciplined game. Josh keeps going for home runs, this team's gonna Casey their way out of the playoffs.

Injuries, a lot of reviews. Miami took a crap ton of timeouts (I think all three second half TOs) when they were about to get flagged for Delay of Game.

Why would McD already rule him out for next week? Makes no sense. Keep the opponent guessing as long as you can. Is this confirmed?

Yeah, with the AFCCG potentially on neutral ground, KC was given no advantage over the Bills. Wait. Remind me who they play again this week?

As said before, we need a win and to keep as injury-free as possible. The rest is gravy.

Slackers. Filthy casuals. 😉

I actually did watch that. Didn't think anyone else did. 😳
