  1. They will now have to pay the piper for their cake schedule thus far. Three road game in a row, two on West Coast and the third in Buffalo. And then they still have NE on road. l'll be shocked if they get more than 11 wins, and if they do then I will give them props. Past performance, however, is not indicative of future results.
  2. Is at the end of the article, so it is behind the pay wall too.
  3. You make an excellent point on preparedness-- Romo was not. He kept harping on Detroit missing two guards, as if they were the only undermanned team. Probably ate too much at the Wednesday meal, as he said when going on about hanging on the goalpost and tilting it to help the last Lion FG try. 🙂 Agree. Get Allen moving in the red zone to give HIM an option to run or throw would be mostly unstoppable, yet we rarely see it.
  4. Yeah, I think he was doing was all announcers do, build up a game for the weaker team when there is blowout potential just to keep people watching. Romo did not appreciate, however, how undermanned the Bills were, and Kubiak felt that was totally ignored.
  5. Thanks. I was not sure who wrote that letter to CBS about Romo, but it was really good. Must have been Kubiak given the placement.
  6. The article is behind a pay wall in today's BN, so I did not link it. But it is really insightful and here are the highlights: - The Bills appeared mentally and physically exhausted throughout the game. He noted early on how Allen avoided contact by going out of bounds when he was running to save energy. He thought the Bills put on a gutsy performance given injuries and fatigue. -Felt that Dorsey went to the RPO one time too many on the interception in the red zone in the third quarter. Need some new wrinkles in red zone. - Allen's third quarter was his worst since 2018. - Last throw from Allen to Diggs defied the laws of physics. Given the Lions' coverage, the play should have been available at the 18-22 yard range given the time the defenders had to react. Allen threw it 36 yards in the same amount of time as a normal NFL QB could throw it 18-22 yards. It was moving 59 MPH. Diggs also ran a fantastic route. Basically, it was a play that should not have been made, and only Allen and Diggs' surreal skills make it possible. If you have a subscription, I highly recommend the read as it really helps cut through all the BS on the Board.
  7. Oliver plainly played a great game--give him a leg. But the PAT miss by Bass was clearly a blessing. The way the D was playing, if the Lions were down by 4 there was a good chance they score a TD and win. For example on the 4th and 1/2 yard that led to the FG attempt, Lions would have gone for it and likely made it. They basically played for a tying FG. The way it unfolded-- add to that some Lions incompetence-- we get the W and out of Dodge. Nah. Win the remaining three home games and one of the three road games and Bills win Division. Book it now. Likely 2 seed. Win another road game, and maybe 1 seed.
  8. I suggest you hop in your Urban Assault Vehicle and take a road trip to Wisconsin. It'll clear your head and put you in a much better mood!
  9. First you ignore the multitude of injuries on defense. Second, you ignore the loss of Crowder. Third, Allen is not 100%. Fourth, the ripple effect on the line is huge. Van Roten is not a real guard. Van Roten instead of Bates plainly adversely impacts Brown's play. Quesseberry at LT is basically a joke. Bates at center is no Morse. Our OL is OK when healthy, but it sucks with the injuries. Very hard to have a great O with no line. And still they put up 26 points. People may think injuries are "no excuse" but if you don't think it impacts performance you are a fool. Let's see where we are in January. But the clip is awesome!!!
  10. Maybe getting back 11 starters will help you fool.
  11. Your last place New England Patriots. Definitely favs over Bills. Yeah right.
  12. Man Pats so good. Might as well concede the East. Geesh.
  13. You are 0-1 v. Ukraine. Ukraine. STFU!!!
  14. No, no they have not. Bills 281, Lions 250. Having said that, there offense seems OK. Defense has been horrid, giving up over 28 a game.
  15. I worked with him in 1982 at a law firm. Good lawyer.
  16. The Mercimek Bar & Grill at 2 Erdogan Drive will have all the games.
  17. This is hilarious. The issue had nothing to do with black & white television. People who are color blind cannot differentiate red and green most typically, thus the Jets Bills game with all green and all red uniforms caused a problem for the color blind. Also, some color-blind people only see in black and white, but that is not common. What a game of telephone this is-- black & white TV indeed.
  18. Quite right. Since Dallas lost to Green Bay week 10.
  19. And they are two months away. November football is only remotely correlated to January football. So cheer up, no need to be miserable.
