Mahomes was injured the game before playing against us and still lit us up. He had a toe injury. Still scrambled and avoided our rush like little kids playing tag chasing a grown man. They couldn't touch him. The biggest difference between this year and last is our defense is way better. 

His little toe lol

Feliciano gets to see his dad Chris Jones again. I’m sure he’s excited. 😆

Not sure he will even play. McDermott said they are rolling out the same 5 from Sunday.  He could play though if Spencer brown is out and they need to reshuffle back to the old lineup.

Stop paying attention to him. He’s playing a role. The more you guys Feed into this stuff the more it plays to he and ESPNs favor. 

Bingo. In fact Wright has two very different descriptions of the Bills and Allen depending on what he's speaking about.  When it's the Chiefs versus the Bills head to head, the Chiefs rule and Allen sucks.  But whenever I've heard him talk about the AFC or the state of the QB's in the AFC, he always says the Bills are top 3 team and Allen is top 3 QB in the conference.

this and the Tampa game are really the only two that make me go “Bills need to be fining on nearly all cylinders in order to win” left on our schedule, to be honest.

 

They should win most of the games on their schedule but upsets do happen. You might laugh at this but the games against the Jets make me a little nervous. Yes the Bills are much better but the Jets seem match up well with the Bills and put up a good fight. Last year 27-17 and 18-10 were the scores and that was with dumbass Gase coaching them.

This. When you start paying attention to clickbait, it feeds the trolls. That Wright guy reminds me of someone who was a multi-sport scorekeeper in high school. Crappy athlete, couldn’t make any team, but wanted any iota of power the school would give him in athletics. Not worth the time.

Yup, and if Bills do win he will just come up with some other nonsense that gets under ppl skin.

Kelce's super strong. And just move him a yard in the backfield. TE's don't run much timing routes. Usually they're the check down or outlet. Lead your coverage into a big mess, then run away from it. It's going to be matchups. Edmunds v. Kelce. White v. Hill. Hyde v. Mahomes. Star and Milano vs. the running game. Oliver, Epnesa, and a limping Rousseau vs the Oline. Then there's Harmon who still remembers that dropped punt in the AFC championship and is still going to be angry. And Andy Reid, who's going to do stuff like QB draw shovel pass, and direct snap HB pass with Kelce to Mahomes.

The crowd's going to be awful. Probably the story of the game. When's the last time the Bills faced a crowd like this? Houston wildcard? @NE when they won the division? Unless Allen opens on fire, which he hasn't yet, and McD has a lot of new solid stuff, identity things that move the league, 41-3, and I'm happy if they rebound. KC has a tough division this year. They may not win it. Plus there's a lot of other teams in the AFC that are as dangerous.

It sounded like to me that Feliciano was benched as well.

 

Interior offensive line is probably going to be our focus in the offseason.

Stop it.  Nick has never talked good about Allen.  Buffalo shouldnt have paid him.  He is behind Baker.  Every game this year he picked against Buffalo or had them on possible upset.

It’s still nice to get the family together.

If Brown plays, they will stick with boettger and DW at guard according to what McDermott said Monday . If he doesn’t, they would need to move DW back to RT and then Feliciano could potentially play at one of the guard spots (assuming he is out of concussion protocol). 

[Logic]

Wasn't so sure this deserved its own thread, so I'll just post it here.

Bills are still one of top teams in the league in 4th down decision making.

In fact, this chart tracks all the way back to 2017, and I feel their 4th down decision making has gotten much better the last couple of seasons. I'd be willing to be they'd be ranked even higher than the 6th spot if the chart only went back as far as 2019 rather than 2017.

Not saying you are wrong.  But I didn't interpret Coach's comments that way.  

 

Thought his comment implied if the same group was available, then that is thr starting 5.  First need to see if Feliciano is cleared, but I think he slides back into the LG role.

[BearNorth]

If Cam Lewis continues his play from the Houston game, eventually he has to be brought up to the 53.  Any thoughts on who goes?

I know this wouldn't happen but I'd wave bye to Breida.

I think it could happen. But we will be lucky to not have roster spots open anway due to players going to IR. 

[r00tabaga]

I don't see Breida playing in this game. Why keep him around if he's not being used? Especially in a game like this where he could actually help IMO. Their LBs are slooooooow

It’s a 17 game season, plus playoffs.  
 

I think you have to keep Breida.  
 

He’s decent and Allen has familiarity with him now.  Chances are we’ll have a game or two where Moss or Singletary can’t go.  
 

One guy runs with reckless abandon and the other is a quick twitch runner.  That lends itself to getting dinged up over time and a potential hammy pull.

Their starting LB Gay, Watkins,and Fenton we’re out.  Breeland, CEH, and Mahomes were all banged up entering the game…. And they lost their starting LT during the game…. Which as we all know resulted in them shuffling their offensive line for the SB and getting their doors blasted off.

Fenton played and had an interception… but yeah they were banged up too. 
 

Not sure anyone had something as severe as a broken leg or torn oblique (only know that because of the reports about the Bills after the season) but everyone is playing banged up… it’s not really a great excuse. 
 

I don’t know why you’re giving me attitude like it was my narrative I was trying to push? I was just asking for clarification.
