Yes, THAT Antoine Winfield. This is not a chawade. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3iokKq1VUrE

In that case, a therapeutic course of leeches is in order.

(puffs chest) I've watched a lot of football for a lot of years but the execution of that play fooled me. Might be the fastest I've seen a QB take center snap and be rid of the ball ever.

I love that segment.

In Soviet Russia, Josh Allen puts pressure on you! And stretches you.

Apology not accepted, the correct box was "did not watch game film"

Got a Bosch T-Shirt that freaks people out, it's great. There's actually sheet music in the GoED triptych that's tattooed on someone's butt. Quite literally known as butt music.

From Shoiwood?

Yeah but they have all those opt-outs, and now COVID players? This year's Pats****** games don't count toward that!

He has a Rorschach test on his shoulder.

I’d guess it’s a reference to the fallacy of betting big when you have slim chance of winning a hand, but then your lucky card comes and you win the pot. You mistakenly concluded that betting was the proper play rather than folding, but over time the percentages are against you so you will lose more than win.

Is this piece is part of Monson's Apology Tour?

I would argue that the preconceptions coming into a season affect the perception whether it's supposed to or not. If Wilson is perceived as a top QB heading into the season and then has the best season, what argument can stand against that? Let's say the positions were swapped with Allen having Wilson's numbers (the best) and Wilson having Allen's (2nd or 3rd best, depending on how you break it down - but very close). I'd say, Wilson would still be the favorite owing to his track record. Unless Allen is clearly head and shoulders above the competition in production, like Jackson last year and Mahomes the prior year.

Quarter-pole. Quick quiz: 4 / 16 = ???

There's no way to deny a guy who has a) proved it over time, b) has never gotten it, and c) is leader in all the fancy numbers anyway. At the quarter pole Wilson is clear-cut MVP, then probably Rodgers. Allen's day will come but he needs to build up that MVP capital with a season or two of wow performances.

Lamar kind of shows up on this list where the eye-test tells you he shows up as a passer.

Crosby misses XP, bring in some competition Falcons rookie misses XP, bring in some competition

They called SAMs because when you eat one, instead of ghosts, you start seeing Darnolds.

That was freakin' hilarious, thanks PEDelman.

Butker with his 3rd XP miss, cut Bass

Mahomes has thrown more cringey balls this game than I've seen from Allen all season.

No. From the "Don't Pay The Perriman" files... Turn Down the Watt

Hey Belichick... tuck you

The price was much higher for Bennett, 2 firsts, a second and running back Greg Bell. But Bennett went in against Denver, his first two snaps were a pressure and a sack iirc, and by Bennett's 3rd snap the Broncos had to double-team him (was at the game). I couldn't remember one guy ever changing a game like that. Edit: Found it, not sure how badly I'm misremembering, but here's Bennett's Bills debut after the long holdout and big trade. 1st snap: 16:05 pressure along w/Smith forces scramble 2nd snap: 27:30 pressure forces incompletion 3rd snap: 46:00 broncos run away from bennett 4th snap: 52:20 another pressure, holding penalty 5th snap: 53:30 bruce with pressure just before bennett, another incompletion Man watching that wind just beat Elway down, makes Allen look that much more impressive for as many windy days in Orchard Park he's already dealt with. Lol barefoot kicker. Also, wasn't it Will Wolford that left for Indy as one of the first significant FA losses for Bills (him and Odomes)?
