Low Positive

Well, I take that back

Not so fast my friend

Bengals losing would be surprising. The Bills losing would be unthinkable. At least by me.

He’s not unknown. There is enough film on him playing in the Dolphins system to develop a game plan.

Doesn’t matter. No one overlooks a team in the playoffs. Last week was a must win for them too and they could only score 9 points on offense against a team that had nothing to play for. Now the Bills have everything to play for and are much more talented. If the Bills lose this game, I will call for coaching changes for the first time.

That happened in college. He was suspended for a year and a lot of teams didn’t have him on their draft boards. But the Bengals are the team that accommodated Pac Man Jones.

I just realized that it is repeatedly. I was wondering the same thing. Who needs a report? I saw it with my own eyes.

But Josh Allen finding Jesus gets it’s own thread.

Every players college highlight film looks great. Here’s Josh Rosen’s

Also, good thing that the Bills are not Texas Tech or Iowa State.

The crazy thing is that stupid bowl cut costs him a fortune. He has a barber in Palm Desert (from when the Raiders were in LA) and he travels there every two weeks just to get his hair cut. He also drinks iced tea at the bar of a PF Changs. He is one weird dude. https://www.businessinsider.com/raiders-owner-mark-davis-bowl-cut-mini-van-2017-1

Reading the Chargers' board, there is speculation that the decision to play the starters in a meaningless game was not Staley's. Along with analytics, he is big into sports science. He doesn't play starters in preseason and doesn't practice on Wednesdays because he doesn't want the players' bodies to take the abuse and is big into resting players rather than getting additional reps. So either the players wanted to play because of contract incentives or Spanos forced his hand. I have no idea if this is true, but that's what they're saying. They also get into the endless debates about QB rankings and feel that Herbert is disrespected. For some reason, Josh being ranked above Herbert is the one that get's under their skin the most.

That post is from before the release of the injury report. I was reading into McDermott's comments this morning.

That's right. Their drought is winning a playoff game. I forgot about the Matt Moore game.

He's not a 9.5 point favorite. That defense is.

Am I correct that the Dolphins are breaking a 14 year playoff drought on Sunday?

I'm not going to respond to this because the jinx potential is just too high.

Thank you so much @Beck Water for posting that. I am SO HAPPY to see Poyer as a full participant today.

Buffalo Bills Fan Syndrome. It's like a sort of PTSD from so many years of disappointment. Most of us suffer from it because we all care so much. It was so sad to watch my daughter get her first taste of it during that Texans playoff game. As positive as I have been all week, it's starting to set in with the realization that the Bills starting safeties might be Marlowe and Johnson.

I forgot that it would be Marlowe and Johnson back there. If that's the case, I might join the doom and gloomers.

I think in this game, they will bring a lot of pressure. They have to try to create turnovers because their offense will struggle to move the ball and score points. They are also going to pull out every trick play from their playbook. Fake punts, double reverses, WR and RB passes, etc... If they have the wildcat in the playbook, they'll run that too. They have nothing to lose.

So the stakes were exactly the same as they were this Sunday against NE?

What I want to see is a Bobby Hart big man TD. This board would explode if it ever had to post something positive about Bobby. A Groot thicc 6 would also be welcome.

Icky Woods and Ronnie Harmon. Good times.

Tee Higgins hasn't practiced all week with a hip pointer.
