  1. On his TD run Josh shrugged off Warner's tackle attempt at the goal line and looked down at him like "nice try, peon."
  2. $42 million in career earnings: https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/player/earnings/_/id/29102/diontae-johnson
  3. It's a community mea culpa for the bad behavior of one of our own. And it's voluntary.
  4. Both of you make a good argument for the Rams having some success scoring points and eating the clock. What that argument ignores is the question of how successful the Rams will be in stopping the Bills offense. Bottom line, can the Rams really outscore the Bills? I have a hard time seeing that happening.
  5. O-line isn't great. I think that's the greatest limitation on their offense. I would say that the Chiefs don't have any easy games remaining. I could definitely see them losing 2 or even 3 as the the pendulum of luck swings back the other way on them. Two things can be equally true. Believe me, I know.
  6. To the first bolded, not only "healthy and available" but also familiar with the offense. I'm referring to Amari Cooper (he's been with the Bills just 7 weeks as of today) and the rookies Keon Coleman and Ray Davis. Also Curtis Samuel and also Mack Hollins are in this offense for the first time having signed with the Bills in March. All 5 of these players can be reasonably expected to more fully integrate into the offense over the final 5 weeks of the season and beyond. To the second bolded, I disagree with you. I think the contributions from the 3 players you named could make a significant difference. Is it clear that the Lions are better than the Eagles?
  7. I have it on good authority from many experts here that emotional exhaustion is a myth.
  8. Ruben Brown would like to have a word with you...
  9. You know you've been watching NFL football for too many years when you realize that: In both of these teams' histories, they've had defensive units nicknamed "The Orange Crush." I'd better go to sleep now.
  10. Incrrnect... that is the proper spelling.
  11. In 2019 Jameis had 33 TD passes and 30 INTs.
  12. BTW, if you like Courtland Sutton you'll probably like Keon Coleman. He'll grow on you... slowly.
  13. The Browns have beaten the Ravens and the Steelers within the last 4 weeks.
  14. We also haven't seen JJ McCarthy. Compared to George Pickens, Jeudy is a Bodhisattva.
  15. He left out the Bills game... not the 49ers game. 😄
  16. Receiving that scoop lateral from Amari was easier than 99% of the shotgun snaps he fields.
  17. I would think that they calculate the percentage for each player per each of the 3 classes (coaches/players/fans), then treat each as an equal third and sum the percentages... or sum the percentages and then divide it by 3.
  18. There was no personal foul on that play. As you probably noticed, on Josh's TD run he ran through a tackle attempt by Warner and as spun off the tackle in the end zone, turned around and gave Warner a look of disdain/contempt.
  19. Dagnabit!!! I heard of him!
  20. From ProFootballTalk: "Despite Rashod Bateman suffering a knee injury during Sunday’s loss to the Eagles, Ravens receiver Diontae Johnson did not play a single snap in the contest. Baltimore acquired Johnson from Carolina on Oct. 29. But Johnson has caught just one 6-yard pass in four appearances. He was active against the Eagles but ended up as one of two DNPs along with backup quarterback Josh Johnson. Head coach John Harbaugh was ominous in his response about the receiver postgame and struck a similar tone in his Monday press conference. “At this time, I’m going to have to wait,” Harbaugh said, via Jeff Zrebiec of TheAthletic.com. “There are some moving parts there that we’re going to have to figure out and explore and see where we’re at. It’s the best I can do in fairness to everybody.” When asked if Johnson is going to stay on the team, Harbaugh stood by his original comment and noted the club will work it out over the next few days while on the bye week." https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/john-harbaugh-on-diontae-johnson-im-going-to-have-to-wait-to-comment
  21. "Players are voted into the Pro Bowl by the coaches, the players themselves, and the fans. Each group's ballots count for ⅓, or 33.3%, of the votes. Fans vote on their preferred players at NFL.com. Replacements are selected should any selected player be unable to play for injuries, self-withdrawal, or Super Bowl contention. Prior to 1995, only the coaches and the players made Pro Bowl selections."
  22. As regards the health of one Joshua Patrick Allen, there shall be no joking. 🙂
  23. The best thing about the Amari/Josh TD was that unlike Reid/Mahomes/Kelce it was a pure and spontaneous football play. As Josh explained to Melisssa Starks, he saw Amari bobbling the ball and decided to run to the play in case he needed to bat the ball down to prevent an interception. Separately Amari had the awareness to ad lib on the play. You know, there's a short list of players who qualify for the title of "Best Football Player in the NFL"... guys like TJ Watt, Roquan Smith, Max Crosby... Josh is the only QB on that list. It can't be acknowledged and appreciated enough, how this edition of the Bills can seamlessly toggle from being a bad weather team to a dome team from one week to the next. I just love how all of the offensive skill position players played fewer than 50% of snaps. I love that we minimized the wear and tear on these guys and didn't have to dig too deeply into our playbook. There are so many advantages to being able to line up jumbo and smash teams into submission. But that's no laughing matter!
