  1. There but for the grace of God....
  2. Next time I’m there!
  3. I agree with others, that was a great and entertaining write up!
  4. I'm not overly confident in him just yet. He seemed late on a few plays yesterday, and there were times pre-snap when I was watching Hyde trying to communicate with him because of what appeared to be confusion. Let's see after a few games if teams pick up on his weaknesses on film and start attacking them specifically.
  5. I was at the game yesterday, and my voice is barely functional today. I don't recall screaming and yelling more at any game in my life. A couple times I was yelling so hard I started getting dizzy. It was LOUD. There were Dolphins fans there, but nothing like you'd see with some other teams like the Steelers. I don't recall hearing them much at all during the game, even in the first quarter. In the 4th quarter, up 28, I wanted to keep yelling to stick it to them but could barely do it from being so tired out. Fun stuff.
  6. Man, was he fun to watch.
  7. Game-time weather looking to be perfect. 73 degrees and sunny at kickoff with negligible winds.
  8. FYI, and FWIW, Cook is currently #3 in the NFL for rushing yards.
  9. 20 bucks to who, the seller or the buyer?
  10. I'm a little surprised more people aren't mentioning our relatively mediocre run defense. Good at times, gives up big chunk plays others. Washington gave up on it too early, because they were doing pretty decent with it against us. If Miami and their resurgent ground game finds that kind of success against us early (and I'm concerned they will), we'll be in trouble.
  11. Not to nit-pick, but you can do play-action from the shotgun. So I don't think this represents under center vs. not under center.
  12. I was just responding to the last sentence in the article: "The reality is that, if the Eagles continue to be the only team that has perfected the play, it eventually will be pushed right out of the rulebook." I mean, I don't know if I'd say either team has "perfected" the play, but certainly the Eagles aren't the only team that's consistently good at it.
  13. We still do that to some extent, with Gabe often being the one in motion and then providing the push. Sometimes others as well.
  14. We totally use this play, and it works well. Probably because Josh is big and strong and good at it, but the push with Josh running is like a cheat code. Not sure why they think the Eagles are the only ones using it or good at it...
  15. I would expect to see a lot of action in the short passing game, too, especially to the backs and TEs. Neutralize the rush, attack the short middle of the field. Run it when the line starts looking for the quick pass. Weather right now looking like rain but not a lot of wind.
  16. Yep, that's the convention. The other convention is that the away team is supposed to be listed first, home team second (or away team on top, home team on bottom). So if you see a score listed, Bills would be on the left, Commanders on the right—or, alternatively, Bills on top and Commanders on bottom (😲). When a team's media group or the hometown paper is talking about a particular game, then they would usually refer to the Bills first, so then it would follow the @/vs. convention: either be Bills vs. Other Team (home game) or Bills at Other Team (away game).
  17. I did that a couple years ago when Josh Allen got COVID. Just not THAT Josh Allen. Strangely, the humor was not appreciated then, either.
  18. If Josh delivered a couple Super Bowl victories for us, I'd give him whatever the ***** he wanted.
  19. Well, there *are* some folks here who actually work for the University of Utah…
  20. I’ve lived in Salt Lake City for 26 years and only last season did I realize there is a huge Bills bar about 3 miles away from my house. Wild.
  21. This thread is approaching Kiko Alonso levels. I’m here for it.
  22. Location, location, location, baby...
  23. I'm all for it if only for the good luck factor. This guy just wins Super Bowls.
  24. I get that, sure. I'm just responding to the comments in your original post where you were drawing several conclusions about what happened and why. Yes, we know what the end result is, but understanding why is the key to knowing how to best address it.
