Almost no one believes the flag and anthem are offensive. That’s a willfully untrue statement and a perfect example what’s wrong with the entire debate. People like you cannot even acknowledge what other people are trying to say let along try to understand the meaning behind their actions.

I believe it’s a remote chance that Brown is vaccinated.

Dear Bills - Please get vaxxed. Good for you, good for society, good for the team and good for my sanity.

To me, Jones has proven that he can do enough to help the Pats to within half-game of the Bills and possibly first place by the end of the weekend. It's possible Jones is as good as he'll ever be but the Patriots as a whole seem to be playing well enough to threaten the Bills chances of taking the division.

Um, yeah, but I was asking the OP if they Pats beat the Falcons, are they no longer "overrated." I see no sense in tearing down the Pats who are only a half-game behind the Bills and could lead the division at the end of the weekend.

I assume this is entirely due to his physical health and durability. If he can't stay the field it would make sense Beasley could be a cap casualty.

And if they don't lose to the Falcons?

I’m pretty sure you’re just a troll.

But is that really true? Players (coaches) in the league simply scan the stats like fans? What if a bunch of DBs have around the same amount? How do they measure OLine play? I get the feeling that coaches and players are a bit more sophisticated than stat searching. So, they simply select the DBs and LBs with the most interceptions, and that's it? That's an amazing assertion and completely untrue.

So, interceptions are the pro bowl barometer? Oh, boy.

Who I think are legit pro bowlers so far this year: - Allen - Diggs - Knox - Morse - Star - Edwards - Milano - White - T. Johnson - Poyer - Hyde - Bass Not quite this year (or yet): - Dawkins (will need to be excellent the rest of the season) - Ed Oliver (moving in right direction but many excellent DT ahead of him) - Beasley (injuries, this could be the last legit year) Maybe in consideration next year: - McKenzie as punt returner. He seems to be progressing of late, but still middle of the pack in NFL returner. - Spencer Brown (fingers crossed) - I want to put Levi Wallace here but he may be as good as he'll ever be. - Gabe Davis (assuming expanded role) - Rosseau (though may take two more years to develop)

If the Bills were going to go 4-3, they would have done that before paying Taron Johnson starter money. Just coincidently, I think this week AJ could play a bit more than normal to stop Jonathan Taylor. However, TJ is more than capable run defender.

What’s in your cereal? I need some.

There is Tony Romo, and then everyone else. If color commentators are discussing human interest stories, then they are not talking about the game on the field. Collinsworth as the ability to make almost everyone and every play "great" and somehow they overcame personal adversity. On the other hand, Romo could call a play before the team breaks the huddle, or explain what happened and why it's important.

Not as lame as ties.

It's still amazing some fans don't see that Tremaine Edwards is an All-Pro caliber linebacker and AJ Klein is slightly above replacement. I think great to have AJ as a backup but come on . . .

In Najee's defense, NFL overtime rules are stupid. I'd at least give each team the possibility of receiving the ball. If still tied after 10 minutes, go to the college overtime. However, overall, I would like to see the NFL adopt a modified college system. Instead of starting at the 25, it's the 50 yard line. The 50 probably means they need at least one first down to attempt a field goal, but most likely need 12-15 total yards for most kickers to have a chance.

Y’all must be trolls. If not, we will enjoy when TE is again a pro bowler, is extended, and you lose your minds.

If by now you don't know what Edmunds brings on every play there's little point to explain it.

I'm OK with pick, it was just a good play by the DB. IMO, it was an aggressive, but not reckless, throw. On the other hand, the fumbles were simply careless.

I think the Coaches deserve a game ball for getting the team right this week.

I tried, I wanted to like it, but to me, it’s a formulaic soap opera on a ranch.

More important than ever. Let’s not try to rationalize it.

Ah, the "I didn't read it/see it, but it sucks" analysis. Well done.

I will constantly make this appeal. Post the link but not the content. That's how the content ultimately dies (and it's unethical and should not be allowed on this site). So far, two posters have trashed Joe's analysis, commenting it's not worth buying. If they don't find the Athletics's content worthy, they should not have access it to it as well.
