I thought Cook looked pretty good yesterday...

I think it's a bad comparison...Elway was a very effective scrambler, but I don't remember the Broncos ever using him on designed runs, other than the occasional QB sneak, certainly nothing like the way Allen is used...

He is, but in this case he is correct.

I knew today's injury report was going to be brutal...

Funny, all I remember is Bills teams struggling mightily in early season games in Miami--and once or twice in Tampa.

Whether it’s a catch or not, do you honestly think there is any chance that call gets reversed? Why doesn’t Davis (or any other Bill on the field) argue the call?

Thanks for the video, but nothing about that looks like a catch. And Davis doesn’t even argue it…

Just FYI…if McKenzie runs straight for the sideline, it’s a 65-yard fg attempt.

Exactly…and imagine if you weighed 300 lbs and were wearing a polyester football jersey and 25 lbs of equipment…

The ball was never “tucked away”.

I don’t care what still photos show…I’ve watched the replay multiple times and he never sufficiently controlled the ball and there no way that gets reversed. It would have wasted a crucial TO.

The league—and society in general—has a huge problem with risk assessment. It’s fine for players to risk death or heatstroke in 100 degree heat… meanwhile, they delay the Eagles/Commanders game for 8 minutes because there was a drone flying over the stadium….The announcers gravely intoned about what a serious threat it was to the safety of the fans and players…I could go on, but I don’t want to wind up in the penalty box again😄

I’ll bet Davis acknowledges that he should have held onto it, and he’d be right. There’s no way that was a catch.

That’s not the rule…you have to control the ball for more than a millisecond with both feet in and he never controlled the ball.

The challenge would have failed and the Bills would have had one less time out at the end. It would have been a terrible decision. I agree with you re Josh in the shotgun…

Funny, when I saw it live, it never occurred to me to challenge that play…just looked like a lousy drop by Davis.

I was not there yesterday, but I understand that the conditions in Miami weren’t out of the ordinary for South Florida in September. I can remember plenty of other early-season Bills games in Miami where heat was a serious factor. Why not just play the first game of the series in Buffalo every year? Or start the game at 4:30 instead of 1:00?

I’m terrified to see the injury list tomorrow…I think it will be worse than last week.

The NFL does not care about the safety or comfort of fans or players…

There is no excuse for it. None.

You’re missing the point: I’d be fine with fewer regular season home games in December/January in Buffalo. Nothing you can do about the playoffs…

That’s not what we’re talking about. The Bills play the Dolphins twice. There is no reason this game (as opposed to the week 18 game) had to be in Miami in September at 1:00. Why schedule games in extreme weather when it can easily be avoided?

They knew…

Miami’s offense (and Bills’ defense) wasn’t the problem today…

Maybe a little
