Wonder if Samuel foot is turf toe raising it's ugly head again

Expand  

In the weeks before this week he was on the report for the pectoral. 
 

He was a factor in the Chiefs game. 
 

Then the bye.

 

Then the 49ers game, so not sure when he got hurt in the 49ers game.

I think there is a quiet, unspoken incentive throughout the team to get Josh the MVP.  This could be a fun, loose, "let her rip" type of offensive outburst that puts up some eye-opening stats to help the cause. 

 

That's my optimistic viewpoint and I'm sticking with it.

Expand  

I hope not. This offense is at its best when it doesn’t go for the big, sexy plays, but the high probability “small” plays gaining 5-7 yards a pop. Those big plays will work themselves out naturally like they have on our win streak. 
 

i really hope josh doesn’t try to press, especially these next two weeks, trying to get a highlight reel for MVP. Just take the underneath stuff that has gotten us 7 straight wins. Don’t get aggressive and put the ball in harms way.

Agree.  This year our big plays are high percentage short to medium passes with RAC yardage, not low percentage bombs down the field.  That has been the recipe for success.  I don't expect Joe Brady is going to go away from that.

If they do, they're arrogant fools, and deserve what they get.

They beat Seattle earlier in the year so they control their own destiny If they win out I believe.  

Expand  

Yeah they are in a really good spot. So much a good spot that beating us doesn’t really even help them and losing to us doesn’t hurt. If they beat us the only advantage they get is they can lose to SF next week if they beat the jets the following week. If they lose to us the only harm is that HAVE to beat the jets and SF and hope for a Seattle loss which seems super likely. But no matter what happens against us they HAVE to beat Arizona and Seattle in the final 2 weeks if they want to make the playoffs. If the roles were reversed I would expect McD to not rush players back for this game.

I agree, I'm not sure what the Rams pass Defense is like....but I could see this being a massive Amari Cooper game


If anything else, it forces teams to prepare more against us 


Josh is going to force feed Amari after the lateral was a bonus to his fantasy team hahahaha

I think it's the opposite. LA isn't great against the run. Barkley had a field day against them 2 weeks ago. Other than Allen I think Cook will be the key in this game. I think he rushes for over 100 yards with a TD.

Maybe but it's a Dome and Allen will feel "free" and take some major shots downfield IMO 


We've had some great passing plays in that stadium against both LA teams

If Cook has a big day, then that will make it much easier for Allen as it will open up the passing game if LA has to sellout to stop the run. I think the Bills will have a good game offensively and score over 30. My prediction 34-24 Bills.

Allen with 5 passing TDs,  2 touchdowns to HIMSELF  + 1 rushing 

Breaks all time NFL record of 7 TD's in a game  + all time fantasy points scored

Bills have been pretty fortunate schedule-wise.  What looked preseason as a daunting schedule has softened up quite a bit. Consider:

 

Tua gets knocked out early in game and season.  
Rodgers isn’t him

Dhop barely plays in Titans game. 

Flacco plays against Bills

Mahommes didn’t have Pacheco and receivers go down

Seattle didn’t have Metcalf

9ers injury riddled

Rams less scary than originally thought. Stafford maybe somewhat hobbled. 

Detroit has big injuries on defensive front.

Speaking of Detroit they have a huge game tonight vs the Packers. That will be a fun one to watch.

Kurt Warner in 2001 had 22 ints and 26 total turnovers and he still got MVP.... 

 

Allen had more tds and less turnovers last year and was the 2 seed.... No MVP 😂

If you're myopically concentrating on the short term, then yes, stick to the high percentage plan.  But it seems that now would be a good time to think strategically about the rest of the season and the playoffs.   Some advantages of opening up the offense include:

 

1.  In game experience.  Doing downfield plays in game situations. 

2.  Put out game tape of a different style of playing.  This will give DC's more to think about in terms of game planning against the Bills.  Remember when Balt devised a game plan designed to shut down the short high percentage pass?

3.  Let the players have fun.  Lets see what Cooper and Coleman can do with some down field opportunities.

4***   (Unspoken, give Josh an opportunity to put up MVP stats - ala the Dorsey led J Winston/Browns)

5.  Have Joe Brady do something unexpected.  Being unpredictable has some advantages.

So Tyler higbee was a full participant in practice yesterday.  Did they have a walk through?  Mcvay said Monday he wouldn’t return until next week.  I wonder if he is playing Sunday.  If he does that is one more offensive weapon to worry about on a team filled with them.

some of these are definitely good fortune but there’s some bad luck hiding in there too

The fact that we played Miami twice early in the season and they had tua for 7/8 quarters is bad luck I’d say given how the rest of their season went lol 

 

Flacco over Richardson and Rudolph over Levis feel like upgrades to me

 

we didn’t get Dhop much on the titans so that he could get traded to the chiefs which is worse 

 

I think the rams are pretty much right on track for their projected season win total if not better

Be easy to do this for us too though.  Lots of big injuries for the Bills, and we didn't have a WR 1 until week 7 with Cooper, who then got injured.  Kincaid - injured.  Coleman - injured.  Samuel - injured (it's got to be the turf toe right).  Good teams find ways to win.

No doubt. Just amazes me how less scary these games ‘appear’ as the season has progressed.
