[Let's Go Buffalo]

It was a good win to finalize the 2 Seed, and to beat the Jets again as well. Go Bills!

I take this game with a grain of salt but;

 

on schedule, Allen was not pulling the trigger. He was hanging into the pocket (OL was stout for the most part) and waiting for things to clear. His elusiveness and ability to throw the ball down the field continues to be his best asset. I just wonder where those on schedule throws have gone. We’ve see a few but no where near what they were doing so efficiently early on this season

The Jets have a solid track record of taking things away from Allen and causing him to reconsider and/or force the issue. His cleaner play in recent matchups is a testament to him and Brady.

Totally agree. 
but Josh and Beane made a pact to bolster OL. Brady has added OL Anderson

This was hilarious, but it also reminded me how many risky throws Allen made running to his right & trying to heave it up to someone deep. He really can't be doing that in the playoffs against good teams. We got lucky none of those were picked.

Well, he reconsidered his reconsiders on that TD throw to Coleman.  I LOL’d at the Twitter clip captioned “***** it - Coleman is down there somewhere”

 

The thing is, I don’t think Josh has ever played with a receiver in the NFL who could be counted on to go up and get a jump ball like Keon can.  And it was pretty well thrown where it’s Keon’s ball, or no one’s ball.

Before this game: I thought Rodgers had shown enough in the 2nd half of the season that combined with the lack of good options, the Jets should stick with him in 2025 and hope they can get lucky and put together a playoff drought-ending season. 
 

After his game: Rodgers is toast. Am I the only one out there who thinks that if the Jets had started Tyrod they would have made this a game?

He is done, but he is a 49 mill cap hit.

Honestly? If Coleman doesn't jump out of the gym there, Ty Johnson catches that cleanly without leaving his feet. Perfect throw to #26 lol

What I think I saw:

 

1.  The weather never materialized once the game started.  -Bad day for build a dome crowd.
2. The tush push isn’t just for Philly. -Neither is the Philly special.
3. Glad Cooper was targeted today and got a signature TD. -He celebrated with two glasses of orange juice at dinner.
4. That throw Josh threw on the Keon TD was 10 out of 10 risky and should have been picked. -I was sweating it out too being up 26-0.
5. Bass looked solid today in the wind. -Just don't make him make a field goal under 30 yards in a dome.
6. Shavers TD was wild.  I need to see it again as it came out of no where. -Mitch Trubisky's MVP moment.  He has a perfect passer rating this season.
7.  Codrington as a DB was an interesting choice. -Limited game day actives makes it difficult to pull all your backups.  Goodell is cheap.
8. The call on Brown on the deep completion to Keon was a brutal call and wiped out a huge play. -Flawless year by refs besides that.
9.  Seems like teams are starting to cover and take away Shakir. -Have to watch the All 22 but I'm too lazy so I'll just chalk it up to saving it for the playoffs.
10.  The flag-a-loopa in this game was absurd. -They even threw flags.  Picked them up.  Then explained why they picked up the flag.

In the replay I thought I saw Allen direct Coleman with a hand gesture to the place he wanted him to go for that shot?

No way to be sure, but the trajectory looked like it would spin right into Johnson's waiting hands except that Coleman goes up like a housecat and snatches it.

Some of the stuff they say is hilarious. Especially at the end. They haven't uploaded part 2 yet. That will be the best with Amari's, Keon's, and Tyrell's touchdowns.

That guy is gonna have a stroke if he reacts that way on every NFL play.

I have to say I don't remember a single pass today that should have been intercepted.  And Allen was unlucky that Coleman dropped one of those passes that hit him in both hands 55 yards downfield.

That's what he does. He's not Tom Brady. He's Brett Farve with better legs and a bigger arm.

I'm not entirely sure it was supposed to be Keon's ball.  It was going straight to Ty Johnson and Coleman just managed to get there first.  Doesn't diminish Keon's play at all, but I am curious who Josh thought he was throwing it to.

I wonder what it’s like to be a Jets fan and watch the QB that your team drafted #3 overall (ahead of Josh Allen and Lamar Jackson) but then ran out of town,  leading Minn to a 14-2 season and the (current) division lead?

And Browns fans watching Baker light it up for 359 yards and 5 TDs today.

Can we call a tackle eligible next week and throw a big man TD to set the all time NFL record for most players with a TD catch with 14?

That would be the great clincher for the MVP... Josh setting an NFL team record.

Speaking of timeouts, what the hell were the Bills doing calling a timeout on defense with like 7 seconds left on the play clock up 40-0?  Then they called one on offense with like 4 minutes left.  ??

That's very disrespectful of Josh towards Keon.
