When Stroud came out with his list of top 5 QBs, what jumped off that list was that all 5 players are people of color.

If he went to the Patriots, you'd have to decide if you believe that Vrabel would be able to manage him. Their defense is pretty interesting now. They traded for Logan Wilson and tonight's the long-awaited return of LB DeMarion Overshown who was looking like a star before his catastrophic knee injury last year. Pete salvaged Geno's career but possibly at the expense of his own. As the years pass from that Seattle Super Bowl team, the person who's maintained his reputation is GM John Schneider. Meanwhile Carroll and Russ have been tarnishing their legacies.

"In an appearance on the Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast in June 2024, C.J. Stroud ranked his top five NFL quarterbacks from the 2023 season. His list, which included himself, featured Patrick Mahomes and Lamar Jackson at the top." Here is C.J. Stroud's ranking of his top five quarterbacks from the 2023 season: 1 Patrick Mahomes Kansas City Chiefs 2 Lamar Jackson Baltimore Ravens 3 C.J. Stroud Houston Texans 4 Dak Prescott Dallas Cowboys 5 Jalen Hurts Philadelphia Eagles

First of all we don't know that stupidity is the issue with Coleman. Personally I don't think that's what it is. And I don't know why it's funny that some people choose to have faith in a person. IMO hopefulness is a virtue and not deserving of being mocked.

Being blocked by people by you is a merit badge... and I know you're reading this. Checkmate.

According to the NFL NetGen Stats, the Chiefs have a 54% chance of making the playoffs.

It's his non-throwing wrist, FWIW.

If people are buying their Thanksgiving turkeys, it's about time to post this: To Break A Tie Within A Division (Two Clubs): If, at the end of the regular season, two or more clubs in the same division finish with identical won-lost-tied percentages, the following steps will be taken until a champion is determined. Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. Strength of victory in all games. Strength of schedule in all games Best combined ranking among conference teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best combined ranking among all teams in points scored and points allowed in all games. Best net points in common games. Best net points in all games. Best net touchdowns in all games. Coin toss You mean the reverse? Also it seems like there's more blowouts on Thursday nights than on Sundays... just an impression. He played without the club yesterday...did I miss something?

Who said he was uncoachable? He's a cancer? F*&k this guy because you'd prefer he was moping? What if he's trying to buoy up his teammates and not drag them down? You must be very smart. Which attitude is that? Was he late for the team meeting or the position group meeting? Why are you laughing at them? If he's benched, I hope it brings you great joy... or satisfies your emotions. Never mind... they've already got the pitchforks out...

True but he's still being misused. The best case scenario is that Shavers can reach the level of play that we got from Hollins last year.

Also people here tell me that time is a flat circle. Perhaps the Patriots will show that they're legit... I have no idea. But until they actually win in December and in the playoffs, I'll remain skeptical.

There's nothing wrong with being concerned after a win but the word used was "miserable" and I agree there's something wrong with a person being miserable after a win. Yes and to your point, the 2 point conversion pass he emailed over Reggie Gilliam's head happened with 9 minutes left in the game. It was a bizarrely great performance by Josh but one that I think a lot of people are having a hard time processing. I don't have a problem with friction in the locker room. Like I've been saying, you have (or should have) a room full of alphas... and a team without the occasional heated disagreement is a losing team. If people are embarrassed or ashamed of anything they post in the game threads, they shouldn't post in the first place, IMO. About 5% of what's posted in those threads has any value... the rest is honestly pathetic which is why I stopped participating and reading them. It's like listening to WGR and having a lobotomy at the same time. McCarthy is being given a multi-week audition. If he fails, the Vikes are still gonna want to have Jefferson around to help develop their next QB prospect. It was hard to hear but it sounded to me like Coleman was being patient, mature, and thoughtful in his replies. If the replies weren't satisfactory to some people it could be due to age and cultural differences... but the hatred he's getting is really disappointing to me.

You're a good poster but you shouldn't be name calling other posters. The reason the Bills didn't make an effort to re-sign Edmunds is because the NYS Attorney General's office made it clear that they would pursue violations of child labor laws if the Bills persisted in keeping him employed. On the other hand, Illinois allows 15 year olds to play pro football. You're correct. I've been saying that to be a complete offense you have to run a complete offense. It sounds stupid to say but you can't be a good passing offense if you don't make it a priority to pass the ball. The Bills season-long habit of over-prioritizing and over-relying on the run has created a situation where they now need to throw the ball more in games in order to become proficient at passing the ball. At this point they're in catchup mode as far as growing their passing game. Hopefully today is a turning point for the offense. Those 1st half and 2nd half gameday threads are embarrassing. The overreactions are honestly pathetic. Thankfully Benford has his best game of the season today and looked like the 2024 Christian Benford for the first time this year.

I'm glad the coaching staff was able to avoid being the reason that we lost another game.

I love the throwbacks, particularly the roadies. That's funny... must be a "Bo-liever" of which I am not one. I haven't seen him play much but wow, what a physically underwhelming athlete. He'd better have a fine Swiss timepiece for a brain or he's never gonna be more than mediocre.

That's good... given their recent play give me Cam as the starter. Or he suffers from depression and has a hard time getting out of bed... as long as we're speculating.

Iconic? Yes. Still Ugly? Yes.

Pro Football Talk in their early inactives is reporting that Keon missed a team meeting on Friday. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/nfl-2025-week-11-early-inactives-keon-coleman-is-out-for-the-bills "Wide receiver Keon Coleman will not play for Buffalo. The 2024 second-round pick was not on the injury report this week, which makes him a healthy scratch for a game the Bills need to try to push their way back up the AFC East standings. According to multiple reports, Coleman missed a team meeting on Friday and that led to the decision to sit him on Sunday." I'm a bit skeptical about this because I think we would have heard this and the writer (Josh Alper) cites "multiple reports." The only multiple reports we've seen is that he won't play... not that it's because of missing a team meeting. I guess we'll find out.

The shopping mall industry is just about as dead as William McKinley so no cause for concern at this point.

Because I'm bored and it's raining outside and I have more time on my hands than I've had in months, I dropped the predictions into a spreadsheet and here's what I found: 75 total predictions 45 predict Bills win (60%) 30 predict Bills lose (40%) Average Score in predicted Bills win: 27.83 to 20.41 Average Score in predicted Bucs win: 29.50 to 17.30 Average Score regardless of predicted outcome: Bills 23.67 Bucs 24.00 Thoughts: I don't track this data historically but I'd guess that the 60% that feel the Bills will win at home in mid-November against an NFL South team means that the predictors are somewhat pessimistic about the Bills. It's also interesting that those that predict a Bills win predict a margin of 7.42 points whereas those that predict a Bucs win predict a margin of 12.20 points. My prediction: I really have no feel for this game other than I continue to believe that the young defense is improving and is as healthy as they've been all season excepting the absence of Oliver and Hoecht. I have a bit of a concern about the nickel situation with Cam and Taron both ailing but I expect a strong performance at home in the inclement weather. Offensively it's ironic that the boost in the receiving corps coincides with the forecasted inclement weather (including high winds). The Bills are an excellent running team and the Bucs have a poor run defense. The same is true in the opposite direction but not to the same degree and again I think home field comes into play and that the Bills run D is part of the overall defensive improvement. From my perspective the Bills still have a lot of proving to do but they get right for at least one week and they do so decisively. Bills 31 Bucs 12

Finally! Everyone's going to eat!!!

There's at least one other possible scenario. Teams will sometimes intentionally leak false information to some employees they suspect of being the source of previous leaks. If the false info is publicly reported it implicates the employee or few employees that were fed that info.

WHO DID YOU HEAR THIS FROM!!!

I knew the name sounded familiar. As someone with very strong football knowledge, how likely do you think is it that McDermott will seek a new coordinator (or two) if for instance, they lose in the Wild Card Round? Are there any coaches out there you think would be attractive possibilities?

Ah, got it. I was talking about Section C3. 👍
