Wow, 4 years. My girls are 6 and 9 now. That was the moment they became Bills fans. They've pretty much only known decent Bills teams (playoffs in 4 of 5 years - yes, I'm counting this year).
Bates played well. Was he relegated to the bench because he's the back up center? Time to put in all the chips, Coach.
Knox is a pretty solid blocking TE.
As some have said already, Dawkins seemed motivated to prove his Pro Bowl nod was deserved.
We could upgrade the line quickly with solid draft capital. Linderbaum comes to mind. Or how about team Brown back up with his NI teammate in Trevor Penning?
Good observation Sir. It is, indeed, the ultimate chess match out there. We can now exploit a particular weakness of some teams that may have previously had the upper hand.
I wonder if negative peer pressure has any influence.
BTW, the other 5 reasons are Crowd Noise, Offensive Line, Pass rush, the Chiefs, and JA17's health.
