Was tired of hearing for years that we have to improve our tackling but we tackled really well today. All the more impressive given the size of our linebackers. The Bills were always swarming to the ball on D and it was really impressive. Pass rush without the need for blitzes was good too. Given the injuries to key players, it's all the more impressive. I wasn't happy with McD for a long time but he's done well lately.

Belichick would make a perfect Grinch in a movie. Hope he spoils the the holidays for the KC Crybabies. A lead right now is a good start.

Hell of a pick by that Pats guy!

Good. But I'm more happy that most NFL fans see Mahomes and Reid as whiny *****.

I don't want him back at almost any price. He'd be taking up a valuable roster spot that should go to a real #2 (either rookie with traits and production or a free agent; because of our cap situation I prefer the rookie route). And I don't want him at a number 3 or 4 also because of the cap situation and I feel Shakir can do the job of a 3 or 4 at much lower cost.

All I could see from the football screen was "My wife was diagnosed with" and I thought, oh, man... I came here to offer words of support. I still hope she's ok but I am glad I didn't have to read another C-word instead. Take care.

Julie DiCaro is my new favorite writer. Glad to see someone call out these whiny entitled #######s.

Not sure this is a sign the Brady has the job locked up for next season. It just seems like they're giving Brady resources (a person he's familiar with and, I assume, respects) to do the best job he can this season.

Huh? We just won. ???

Well, if you were willing to blame Dunne for being a distraction for this KC game, are you willing to credit him for galvanizing the team?

Big Ed. Never have so many of us been so wrong.

More throws to Cook....

Harty's biggest catch of his season?

Cook is really turning into an elite RB receiving threat.

Good call, Si!! 🍻

What universe am I in where Kelce gets the PI?

Josh — what a beast!!!!

***** yeah. McD saying stay out there, my first thought he doesn't want to look "tight" and conservative.

Finally beginning to see the Cook we heard about in college — fast with WR hands. Brady knows how to use him far better than Dorsey did. Diggs, Kincaid, Cook... That's not too bad. A real #2 would make us deadly.

Way too young, and he sounded like a good guy. Very sad. Condolences to the Wycheck family.

Sorry, I'm not very X literate: how do I see the thread WYO made? I click on the X post and there's nothing linked or under it... And her website doesn't seem to have it either. I could be wrong, however... Or is she being ironic and the heart GIF is the whole of her message? Thanks.

I've been looking for public statements from Josh Allen or Stephon Diggs in support of McDermott. So far, nothing from any offensive team veterans or leaders that I can find. If anyone else sees any, please share. It could be that the team is focused on KC and that's totally fair and understandable as this is a must-win game and distractions are not good. However, after the KC game I would expect team leaders, besides Micah Hyde, and especially on offense, to unequivocally make a public statement in support of their head coach — if that's how they feel. I think what the team leaders, especially Josh and Steph, say or don't say about McDermott should reveal the true sentiment of those players. Do they get emotional and with great vigor shut them down and call them BS or nonsense? Do they issue a boilerplate "we stand behind our coach 100%" statement and deliver it with no emotion that would cause such a statement to be interpreted multiple ways? Or do they remain silent? Monday should, to me at least, be very telling.

Combined with the fact that we keep losing close games because of defensive and coaching errors and that he blamed a loss on the Bills offense scoring "too soon" I want this guy gone. He was a decent to good coach who helped us get out of the drought, but he is not, to use his words, "championship calibre."

Normally, yes, there is a middle ground. But any so-called leader who uses 9/11 as a supposedly motivating example of teamwork, planning, and organization for a team of professional footaball players is not "normal" so my normal reaction doesn't apply here. Someone is severely lacking in leadership, communication skills, and judgment if they use that example to motivate NFL players. I won't back down from this position. People make mistakes, but that's really a fireable offense in my eyes. It shows a total lack of empathy, leadership, common sense, and judgment. If you think it's a simple gaffe many good leaders would make, good for you. I don't agree.

I don't get all these questions of "who is Tyler Dunne?" McD already admitted to the 9/11 speech and thus far hasn't denied other allegations like his displeaure with the WRs buying Chad Hall a truck as a gift. McD either did and said these things or he didn't. If the latter, he should get a good lawyer and litigate. If he did do them, the messenger doesn't matter.
