Then scheme up hot reads Brady.

 

And Josh needs to not check out of them / make bad protection calls which he has done at least twice.

Allen is pressing with this pass rush pressure. 

 

Meanwhile, all the pieces are falling into place for Cincinnati, which is not good.

Carson Wentz starting against the Broncos defense in Denver and playing with backups is going to be a problem for Cincinnati.

Both teams are cheating,  we need more flags

2 otherworldly plays by Allen negated because of drops. 

 

and another called back from a phantom hold.

Out of the list of things that concern me right now about the Buffalo Bills … the prospects of playing the Bengals in the WC weekend is not near the top 

 

The Bengals aren't going to make it.  KC is resting starters next week and Denver is at home, they should have no reason to lose that game.

Do we know for sure KC are playing their backups all game?

 

I can see them playing for at least a quarter 

[Nitro]

Stuff the run and force the Jets into passing it.  Sacks and turnovers await.

Bills will win. 

 

Allen's MVP chances are very much in jeopardy. 

Actually Allen made 3 MVP worthy plays in the first half that won't appear on the stat sheet.  Hopefully the voters will still consider them.

12-0 and it feels like it should be 24-0.  Just not finishing on offense and while the defense is pitching a shutout, it's not like they have been dominant.  A couple of key turnovers have us still in control on the scoreboard, but it's not like the Jets haven't moved the ball.  Have a lot to get better at in the second half.  

 

Now, I do want to say that you can tell we don't have our full playbook in.  They are definitely holding things back for the Playoffs.  There is not much jet or orbit motions, no designed QB runs, etc.  Obviously, I agree with doing this as our only objective in this game should be to win it and stay healthy.  

 

I realize there are a lot of people out there that think we should have just gone all out these last couple weeks and let Allen continue to pile up stats for his MVP case, but at what cost do you want to do that?  Look, I want Allen to win the MVP as much as anyone, but we can't help the way the schedule fell and what we are/aren't playing for and how much we have to press to win these last few games.  As soon as the one seed vanished, so did our need to keep the pedal on the floor on offense.  THe offense will look much different come the Playoffs.  Go back and watch the Lions game just to see how much different this offense was in that game.  They were going all out in that game and everything was on the table.  Compare that to what our offense is calling now and it is basically a shell of what we will be running in a couple weeks.

We seem to have a big swoon after great games at the end of every year.  Rarely losing, but still azz play.  Remember the chargers game last year after the Great kc road win?

KC would tell them to kick rocks, they earned the rest.

[Kelly to Allen]

Sack now

For whatever reason, this feels like it's been prevalent over the past couple of weeks. Testing things for the play offs? I can't remember Josh's protection calls being an issue before.

I think the Jets are already playin their brand of football.

Let's put Rogers alone in the record books for sacks!

Ulbrich: 'We just have to play our brand of football in the 2nd half' - you mean the losing brand of football.
