Wow, just saw that Montgomery is out for the season now too for the Lions. They are wrecked.

Yeah that really kinda sucks for them.  Now I really hope they can make it to the Super Bowl if the Bills can get there.

The Eagles definitely the clear favorite to represent the NFC in the Super Bowl. Maybe the Packers or Vikings have a shot, but it will probably be Philly.

Holy S*** , re watch that throw to Coleman , like 65 air yards, running right with the flick of a wrist, placed perfectly.. Wow

Straight-line speed and size - Herbert matches Allen - the difference is Allen is so much more coordinated. The jukes, the acceleration, he makes definitive decisions to just go. 

 

I'm not sure about that.

Why doesn’t WGR ever carry McDermott’s press conferences?

Upthread it was listed as one of the shortest hang times for a 50+ air yard throw.  Insane.

That non call plus the hilariously bad non DPI call in the end zone on the Bills first drive were enough to raise eyebrows. Probably just flat out incompetence but not so sure. 

That no call on Shakir in the end zone was atrocious. He was grabbed out of his cut and then contact way before the ball arrived. There were two separate fouls on the play and not one was called.

Allen's passing has been amazing the past few weeks. I mean, it generally is - but some of the pinpoint long & intermediate passes he has made are really jaw-dropping.

 

Love the protection he's getting.  Give JA time, and he's going to find a guy and get the ball to him.

 

Yea that 35 yard pass to Shakir in the End Zone early that hit him in the face mask because his arm was being held (no freaking call) was amazing.

I don’t think even in a dead sprint with a football in his hands Herbert is as fast as Allen but I could be wrong. Tough to tell without a side by side race lol Herbert ran a marginally faster 40 time but Josh’s form for running the 40 yard dash was hilariously bad…I don’t think he spent any time preparing for it when a lot of guys do

I also like the first throw to Ty Johnson. It shows that he’s been working on his touch, which was one of his 2 remaining weaknesses (deep ball.)

[Simon]

 

Does anybody have a replay of that throw he made to Ty Johnson in traffic coming out of halftime?

It might have been right in the first set of downs.

I don't know if it was me or if that was really as freaking nuts as I thought.

Oh man.  What a friggin day for the kid.  Taking advantage of their 4-3 base defense.  💙 

To me, Ty Johnson has been the biggest surprise on offense for us all season.

 

I still think that Ray Davis is our best receiving running back, but Ty Johnson has been a very reliable and effective as a receiver. We did not see this from him last season.

He was 7 for 7 in catches last year.  Just didn't see enough of him with the other RB3s.

The other part of that play was Hollins coming down and pushing Coleman and the two defenders toward the goal line.

Ty Johnson is so tough to evaluate…people said yesterday its all Josh elevating him but he really has played for straight up scrub franchises (at the time) before coming to Buffalo. So couldn’t that be other teams diminishing him to a degree too? Lol 
 

I feel like he deserves some accolades all on his own despite Josh throwing a couple absolute dimes his way last night.  Clearly he’s doing something right to earn snaps in a backfield with cook and Davis

In other words, the fastest throw recorded by an NFL QB for a 50+ yard throw. 

 

(same as what you said but this makes it sound better 😃)

The EZ view of the play is insane - you see him buy time then get obliterated right off the screen right as the ball is launched as if from a cannon -  then you're looking at the receivers and thinking 'wait that's too far the ball won't get there' even though you know it does - and it drops right in Coleman's arms.  Absolute insanity

My fav to Ty was the one at about the 0:20 mark. Crazy throw
