200 million percent. The $200 million is his next contract.

He's still on the team, just a weekly inactive.

Josh Allen is a QB who needs to be seen to be appreciated. His game doesn't translate well to people who don't watch his games & only see a few highlights and a stat sheet. Those of us who see every down he plays, including his teammates who love the guy, understand how clutch he is. In a way the player at this point in his career that Josh reminds me of most is Eli Manning. Living in Giants territory, I see the Giants more than any team except the Bills. Now their games are entirely different, but I remember back in 2006 when some people around here who never watched Giants games were gleefully saying that JP Losman was a better QB than Eli Manning. I had to explain to them the same thing that we now have to explain to people who don't watch Josh. The guy is super clutch who wins games and has outsiders scratching their heads as to how he can be leading his team into the playoffs. Some QBs have to be seen to be understood. Eli Manning during his early and prime years was like that & so is Josh Allen. Edit: Here's a link to Eli's stats. Notice how low his completion % was early in his career. Also note that in his 2nd-9th seasons he never had a losing record. https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/M/MannEl00.htm

People who believe that players & coaches should study a stat sheet instead of getting the context right by looking at film. They don't care what a player is doing on the field, if the stat sheet says he's below average, he's a bust.

Any Allen detractors need to read this. I know the non-subscribers can't open the link, but this is the part about Allen in the write-up from The Athletic: https://theathletic.com/1465285/2019/12/17/bills-all-22-review-josh-allen-does-the-little-things-and-cody-ford-has-his-best-game-of-the-season/ 1) Allen flips the script once again It shouldn’t be a surprise by now because of how often Josh Allen does this sort of thing. For the fifth or sixth time in his young career, Allen turned a notable weakness in his game into a non-factor the following week. Allen’s development is ongoing, showing that he isn’t stuck in his ways. He makes changes to be a better asset to his team and to help move the ball down the field more effectively. While the defense deserves a heap of praise for the Bills’ success this season, Allen does too for his nonstop tinkering. The previous week, the Ravens seemed to find a way to turn the clock back on Allen. They made him nervous, he panicked in the pocket more than he has in the last two months and, worse, he hung onto the ball far too long. So, Allen went back to the drawing board. His processing speed, against an aggressive Steelers defense, was better than it’s been all season. He saw things well ahead of the snap, he made quick decisions and he didn’t allow the Steelers’ pass rushers to control the game. Last week against Baltimore, the average time it took Allen to throw, scramble or get sacked was 2.93 in 50 dropbacks — one of his highest single-game averages of the season. In 30 dropbacks against Pittsburgh, Allen cut that down by almost half a second, averaging 2.48 seconds before the throw, scramble or sack. In the Ravens game alone, there were 20 separate plays where Allen held onto the ball for at least three seconds before making a decision or getting sacked. One glance at Allen’s traditional stat line against Pittsburgh might be underwhelming. Reviewing the film and watching Allen’s decisiveness and ball placement revealed a bit more. Allen was confident, he didn’t allow the Steelers to do what they wanted defensively and his execution of the game plan removed the ball-hawking Minkah Fitzpatrick from the game. On some of his more significant pass plays, Allen’s eyes moved Fitzpatrick away from his real target. We all remember the post-Renegade deep ball to John Brown –Fitzpatrick would have been there had Allen not given a long look right at the beginning of the play. Similarly on the Tyler Kroft touchdown, Allen froze safety Terrell Edmunds in place by looking left before going to his real read on the right and firing a dart for the go-ahead score. These, along with the pre-snap modifications and quickened processing time post-snap, are next-level quarterbacking improvements. You see a line of 13 for 25 for 139 yards on the box score, but when you remove drops (3), throwaways (2) and passes tipped at the line of scrimmage (3), Allen’s adjusted completion rate is 76.5 percent. If Allen can be consistent with this style of play, the Bills are onto something with their second-year player.

Are the Patriots losing their 1st pick for videogate so they'll only be 31 1st rounders?

The mock draft has the Bills higher than I see them drafting, so the fit may work out.

Also these 2019 Bills have been very good to gamblers. Many of us bet the Bills game tonight & won. Anyone who bet win total futures and make the playoff futures have already clinched all their bets with 2 games to go. With the team now getting national exposure that will include playoff exposure, the opportunities that were available to bet on this season likely will never come around again. We snuck up on a lot of people, but not the hard core Bills fans who had the faith to take the casinos money. What a great year to finally have legalized sports betting.

With the game on the line, Josh Allen threw a TD pass in the endzone. With the game on the line Duck Hodges threw not 1, but 2 interceptions in the endzone. Josh Allen wins games with the game on the line, PERIOD

Here the simple version: Those of us who bet the Bills to win the game made money. Those who only bet the Bills to cover made money. Also anybody who bet the Bills to make the playoffs clinched winning their bet. I'll be heading to the Casino tomorrow & then to the bank.

When Pittsburgh fumbled later in that possession, I was yelling "Justice" at the TV.

They had 10 win seasons with the Sabres. ?

I'll take whatever time it takes to get the game on TV in my living room. This week, the only way to get the game on local TV was if it got flexed to Sunday night.

I grew up in the 1960s and I was never around anyone who used that word. Maybe I just grew up around people who weren't dumb.

Because that's what his O-line will be yelling at him all night this Sunday.

If you trust the Jets to play a clean game and not take any cheap shots play the starters, but look at the Jets players & coaches and remember Hauschka & Williams bounty hunting and ask yourself "How can I trust the Jets to play clean?" I vote rest them.

Add Lynn & Patricia

Ricky Williams just went back into training.

Chris Brown Twitter Link on JuJu

JuJu left practice today & may not play Sunday. No links yet, WGR said so on One Bills Live.

Fangio wins 2 games in a row with a rookie QB & he thinks he's Don Shula.

The Ravens are the old Cleveland Browns, not the Indianapolis Colts, so if you want to find out the last time before last Sunday, you have to look up the Browns @ Buffalo. The results are the Browns had won in Buffalo on December 7, 1986 and didn't return until October 21,2007, when they did as the Baltimore Ravens.

That was the same thinking about a rail thin 211 pound QB who was under 200 pounds part of his senior year in college. Now I know he doesn't run around like Jackson, but he's now in his 20th season. I've learned over the years not to look at a young player and project his NFL longevity, especially using his weight as a guide.

I put 9 units on the Bills money line @ +108 & 5 units on the points (+2) @ -110. Total wager 14 units, possible return 28.27 units. Lines don't move from 2 on Wednesday to 7 on Sunday without a QB change.

If he fell from the sky and landed on a rookie free agent contract we might consider it devine intervention and sign him. Wasting a 1st rounder on him. NO!
