I felt like he was one of the best WRs coming out of the 2022 group. He's been hyped since high school but he was inconsistent at Georgia and dealt with injuries. There was also speculation on his attitude and coachability but if he puts it all together I think he's gonna be a good one. Aside from the INT, dude was eatin' Elam's lunch all day.

I misspelled The name Pickett (QB) it was he I meant when I spoke about potential. Both are key to that team moving forward.

 

Heck Pickens? That guy is a WR Beast already. I would say he has lay claim to being LEGIT already this season. Impressive WR

Made the trip up for todays game and it was absolutely incredible. While I used to go all the time, this was my first game in attendance in a few years and the fellas didn’t disappoint. I about came out of my sneakers in excitement on that 98 yard TD to Gabe. Felt like I was levitating. Josh is such an amazing talent, and I’m so thankful every day he’s a Bill. Wouldn’t trade him for anyone. Let’s keep it going next week!

Tomlin and Pickett re the Shaq and Hamlin hits.

People should remember that whenever the Steelers play the Ravens and have to chase Lamar.

You know this, but bears reminding about Picketts fake slide last year.  Hamlin knew not to let up and his hit landed on the shoulder pad, albeit a split second late. 

 

These are snap decisions players make, neither was "Bush league", just hustle to the end of the play.  Again, you know Damar and Kenny played together at Pitt, Damar isn't that type of guy/player either.  Also never seen Shaq try to cheap shot/injure a player. 

 

Picketts reaction is also fine, if he feels that way.  Big deal about nothing though, IMO.

Expand  

Don’t get me wrong. i don’t think either hit was illegal. I just know I would be livid if Josh took those same hits today with no flag, especially the Shaq one.

I’m still getting used to Bills games effectively being over half way into the third quarter. 
 

What a time to be alive.

Kelly and co. routinely had the game decided by halftime, but yes, a great time for us to be revisiting!

anything less than 100% perfection from #17 is unacceptable!

 

@-@ I mean seriously.

Expand  

In the postgame a reporter me the 324 yd 4TD 1st half to Allen, and asked how does it feel to be that dominant.  Josh responded that he felt like he missed a few throws and was ticked off.

 

So he agrees w you.

Phillips is fine, he returned to the game and was on the sidelines (no treatment/etc) for the entire game.

Expand  

 

Yep. Phillips jogged off the field to the sidelines. Never went into the tent, never received any specific treatment on the sidelines. He was back in the game later, looked pretty good.

Fair enough, in the moment sure, but after the game I'm not sure why this is a big deal.  

 

Steelers should be focusing more on what to do with their Offensive coordinator.  They have a much bigger problem there to figure out.  That offense has legit talent at their skill positions, and good enough QB play, Matt Canada should be immediately fired...way underachieving.

Agreed, esp on Canada. I was telling my Steelers buddies that Canada even held back Ben R. I think he actually had more juice in his arm left than people gave him credit for, but Canada’s 3-yard offensive scheme killed him. He is going to kill Pickett too. 
 

Oh, and Najee Harris is not good.

So this is what I learned about the bills this year. Put them in a game with neutral weather and they will score 30+ points and the defense will dominate. Put them in a whacky weather game and it will be a close battle and come down to the wire. How’s the weather in KC looking? 

Expand  

 

It was windy.  The Bills were going into it in the 1st and 3rd quarters.

So, you think that a flag should be thrown for hits that weren't illegal?

It is a bit funny when folks start throwing up QB stats and as a Bills fan you cannot help but think of how many games already this year Allen has the game wrapped up by the 3rd Qtr.

He could pad his stats insanely especially when defenses are running for the bus if he and the coaching staff felt that was important.

No. I think the defenders should not have made those hits (mostly the Shaq hit).

Truth.

 

It always seems to come down to KC - we have to take that win and flip the script to start forcing these guys to play in our back yard.

 

We end up in Arrowhead far too often of late

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[Andy1]

Just listened to Cover One recap of the game. One thing jumped out to me. They said Bills had 4 TD drives consisting of a total of 8 plays going 270 yds, using just 2:44 of time. That is just insane. 
 

All I can do is smile after thinking of all the years of inept Bills offense I have watched. We are really watching something special.

I was out at a bar and didn’t get a good look at the replay…was the blocked FG a miss hit by Bass?

It was blocked because IMHO he thought the wind would take it so he kicked it hard and low.

It was a block.

 

Looked like he tried to kick it low because of the wind.
