They had him bracketed from what I could see, but if you start chasing individuals you're going to destroy the integrity of your zones. I definitely don't fault them on that first completion, but I'd have to see the last completion again before I could offer an opinion worth more than a nickel. There's just only so much you can do when one of the greatest QB's of all time is executing with that kind of anticipation and precision. Not to mention that Adams was on the other side of the far hash when he let that ball go. 😮

They did take deeper drops but that's probably the right call in that situation with GB out of TO's. You've got to keep everything in front of you so one play doesn't beat you. Rodgers just executed as perfectly as you possibly could.

I didn't think he was open at all on that first play; that was just a disgusting throw.

The Master at work.

Yeah, it was sort of Bledsoenian.

Yeah, Payne was wearing a #94 and Washington doesn't seem interested in moving their front around much. I thnik he went after Allen low on the first or second possession. My only evidence is that a) both Ford and DWilliams wanted to fight him at one point and b) Josh missed the deep throw to Diggs after that because he pulled both his feet off the turf when he saw Payne in the neighborhood again. I remember having one of those moments early where you say "I really hate this ***hole; I wish he was wearing a Bills jersey"

That guy was a nightmare in the first half; Ford was fighting like hell but he couldn't keep him out of the backfield. He was way more dangerous than Chase Young or Montez Sweat. I wonder if he has some conditioning issues or something because he really looked gassed and seemed much less effective as the game went on.

I thought Star had another nice outing today. I know he's fodder for good jokes right now, but he's looked very, very good in his first two games so far.

You know he led the team in tackles today right? I'm not saying he is great or even that he had a good game, but some of this criticism is badly misplaced. I don't think he's a good enough ballplayer to sink a bunch of cap space into, but that doesn't mean he's terrible.

I thought they got better as the game went along for sure, and by the second half that pressure was indeed consistent. But I also remember thinking to myself at one point during the first half that I thought the Wash OLine was holding up surprisingly well.

I thought they played well for the most part; interior pressure was a problem for Washington for much of the day. They also did so without a lot of help from scheming or extra rushers. And Heinecke took some serious bruises in the process. But they weren't so dominant that I'd call people clueless that happened to not see it that way.

I don't think that's really fair. I thought the D-front played pretty well, but they weren't soooo dominating (especially at the Ends) that there is no room for disagreement. I will say that for the second week in a row, the Bills D administered a physical beating to an opposing QB. That dude is getting some tub time this week.

Yeah, that was big. Props to McDermott for trusting his offense to operate from its own end with only :26 to play with. Also interesting that the very next time they touched the ball after that, they ripped off a 90+ yard, 17 play TD drive.

He had one today that was slightly behind him and he couldn't reel it in. Almost turned into a pick 'n' go off the deflection.

I thought he spent a significant portion of the day off his spot because of interior pressure

It's a killer nickname. Maybe try putting a "The" in front of it

I almost just tossed you over the side before I read the rest.

Oh, I think he knew; it's just that the bounce was so weird, he couldn't catch up to it.

I really like Anthony Lynn but the same exact thing went though my head 3-4 times.

Saved by stripes. And then they give Mahomes the ball back with a chance to tie for no reason?

The Chargers get stupider every time I watch them

Mahomes with a late pick and the Chiefs cold be in trouble

I thought he was doing it last week vs Miami also

good grief Tremaine.....

Huge props to Daboll What a drive....
