She’s a sideline reporter who, given she was assigned the Bears/Raiders game, is probably still learning her craft and trying to climb her way up the ladder. Maybe she was a little nervous. Maybe she will get better at delivery. She probably had the question given to her by a producer and did not ad lib it. He is at the top of his profession but new so he is probably on a bit of a learning curve himself. If he’s not qualified to avoid mocking a four foot nine female reporter and so weak that he needs to double down by getting in her face…….he’s got a douche bag problem that is not ever going to be solved regardless of his job. Your comparison is apples and Buicks.

Bills Rams was week 13 last year, December 8. So in the last 7 games, the Rams blocked and returned for TD. Special Teams cost us a win. Baltimore game Hamilton almost blocked our winning FG. Miami almost blocked our punt. If Fin was 2” closer, there is no roughing the kicker. And possible different outcome. Saints almost blocked our punt. If Saint was 2” closer, there is no roughing the kicker. And a possible different outcome. So in the past 9 games, Bills leaky field goal, and punt lines cost us one game. But Special Teams Unit failures almost cost all 4 games. So Special Teams Units Failed their assignments, and directly almost cost us 4 out of the last 9 Bills games, or 44.4% There have been many other near blocks on a large percentage of Punt and FG attempts. Special Teams Units has to get their ***** together. Bills D needs to figure out how to stop the run. We have Bijan coming up. Bills D needs to figure out how to get off of the field. They have to start making 3rd down stops, and stacking them. A pass rush helps. Hello Roos. Hello Sanders. Bills O Hey Joe- where are you going with these vanilla offensive schemes. Josh Allen is amazing, how about we use him more? All Bills coordinator's and coaches have their work to do this week.

Always defer. And actually an even BETTER way to set the tone is to kick to them, force a punt and then drive down and score.

NE is better everywhere. They should be 3-1 but blew the Steelers game with 5 turnovers, two of which were inside the Pittsburgh 3 yard line. Outgained them 400 to 200 and lost 21-14. The defense has been getting after the QB with Barmore, Milton Williams, and Landry, and the Pats' top corner Gonzalez is back after missing the first 3 games. The offense is playing good football for the first time in years. OL is solid so far with 4 new faces. The run game hasn't been great but better the past 2 weeks. Weapons are better all the way around, not great but effective. Diggs has been making plays and being a solid citizen. Love what Hollins brings. But the main thing is Maye and Josh McDaniels got it going. Maye is very comparable to Justin Herbert, and extremely similar playing style. The Patriots look about ready for a game of this magnitude.

This is an interesting point. I recall after the Ravens game someone stating that the Ravens took advantage of the crowd noise when they were on offense, and snapped the ball quickly. Thus, they effectively nullified the Bills’ defensive communication presnap. And it worked on a few plays, at least. The Saints are known to run a very fast, up tempo offense (at least that’s what I read in the pregame write ups). I wonder how much the crowd noise and speed of the NO offense contributed to Bills’ players not properly communicating and being slightly out of position on numerous plays? The result was alot of missed tackles and generally sloppy looking play. It could be something to watch for. Also, if there’s even a modicum of a possibility of this being true; I really hope the coaches are smart enough to develop a counter system of quicker calls/communication schemes. Because I can’t see the Bills fans being quieter, especially in the playoffs.

I am pro Bills and pro Keon. But watching Worthy against the Ravens, he gave them a big spark. Maybe I'm overreacting to that.

just those things LOL... the one thing that drives me nuts is their pursuit laterally and getting off blocks.. they seem to get block easily and teams force things outside very successfully... although they did look better yesterday.

The Steelers did play Justin Fields too. Do you think the Bills have the best pass defense in the league (as their ranking suggests) or do you think they have been ungodly bad against the run (the second worst in the league) and also played some crappy passers that inflated their passer yard ranking? I know what I’m picking lmao.

This is going to be a tough game for our D, and I fully expect my fantasy star— Hunter Henry— to have a huge day for the patriots. we are just going to have to take care of the ball and outscore them.

Trump doesn't want the truth to get out

I wonder if he voted for Obama in 2012?

FOX NEWS - Who's going to bear the brunt of the responsibility if indeed there is a shutdown of our government? DJT - Well, if you say who gets fired, it always has to be the top. I mean, problems start from the top and they have to get solved from the top. And the president's the leader, and he's got to get everybody in a room and he's got to lead. You know, the interesting thing is in 25 years and 50 years and 100 years from now, when the government, you know, they talk about the government shutdown, they're gonna be talking about the president of the United States. Who was the president at that time? They're not gonna be talking who the head of the House was, the head of the Senate, who's running things in Washington. So I really think the pressure is on the president.

Except it's never that easy. They are constantly being put in binds now and having to decipher what they should be doing and having to make some level of "no win choice" that didn't exist back in the day, not nearly to the degree it does today. Steelers played Justin Fields also, or did they get some special version of him that didn't exist when we played them?

No disrespect - but - not really sure how its not part of the conversation? A major concern about Worthy coming out, and still is now, was his small frame holding up to high volume work in the NFL. Pretty doubtful Keon misses time if he had run into Kelce week 1. "Availability is the best ability" is an entrenched mantra in the NFL for a reason. So to act like it has no value, especially during a stretch the Chiefs went 1-2 and are looking up in their division and well behind in the seeding race in the AFC right now seems unreasonable. Not to mention, this was just 1 game he has appeared in, and against the same team Keon had a big game and was a core reason why we won it. Not to mention, Worthy has way more target opportunities in KC right now with the lack of weapons there due to a lesser WR room, lesser OL, lesser RB room and their actual best WR suspended. So no disrespect, but feels like the pro Worthy crowd only seems to be interested in discussing things that provide confirmation bias for preexisting opinions. What is most interesting is how few people seem so shut down to the idea that BOTH teams got the guy that fits best with what they wanted, needed, and the offenses they run. KC wasn't looking for a WR1, they wanted a deep threat and didn't need size either with Kelce and Rice there amongst others. Bills were looking for more a physical and bigger target given we lacked size on our WR room when we drafted Keon and were in the beginning of a full retooling of the group.

First of all, Beane had nothing to do with passing on Mahomes (that was McD/Whaley). But, yes, let's talk about hindsight with Mahomes. Easy to say now the Bills should have drafted Mahomes or not traded K.C. that pick. But, in 2017, we had a first year head coach who didn't even have a good assessment of his own roster yet. We had a lame duck GM, who was about to be fired. At the time, 2017 was not considered a great draft for QBs. Some people felt that K.C. reached for Mahomes at 10 (he was not expected to be as good as he's been, or at least get there as fast as he did by many at the time). And 2018 was already shaping up (again, at the time) to be a generational QB class, as good as 1983. It made all of the sense in the world at the time for McD to wait on his QB. Wait until he knew his roster and organization, wait until he had a GM he trusts and had time to scout all of the QBs, wait for the better QB class, etc. I think you are looking back with hindsight if you think the Bills should have drafted Mahomes. I tried to follow all of the trade deals and subsequent trades of those picks and this was basically what I found as the outcome of the two trades (draft picks in parentheses): Chiefs got: Mahomes (10), Worthy (28), CB Jaden Hicks (133), OC C.J. Hanson (248). Bills got: Tremaine Edmunds (16), Tredavious White (27), Keon Coleman (32), Zay Jones (37), Dion Dawkins (63), DeWayne Carter (95), and OT Travis Clayton (221). The Bills also had to give up two 5th rounders in the process: picks 154 and 156. So, picks 10, 28, 154, and 156 netted us the above 7 players. Sure Zay was a bad pick and Tremaine never quite reached the level of his draft status (though a solid player), but I'd say we did ok. No picks will ever match the value of Mahomes, obviously, but considering we were still able to get Josh the next year, I'd say things worked out for the best. I personally would take Josh 100 times out of 100 times over Mahomes, not because I think Josh is better than Mahomes, but because he just fits Buffalo so perfectly (and I like him/his personality better---though Pat seems like a good guy too). Time to let the whole Mahomes trade go...everything happened they way it was meant to and our day in the Sun will come. Couldn't agree more with everything you've said Generic (even though I didn't quote all of it). But the bold statement is the key that some people just can't get. Both players are good and each team got the guy they wanted. We didn't want Worthy for our offense (otherwise we would have just picked him where we were rather than trading back, and obviously K.C. wanted Worthy over Keon, as they picked Worthy with Keon still on the board). This was a win-win for both teams. And it's not like Worthy is going to be the one player that prevents us from beating K.C. Well, yes, let's talk about the playoffs for a moment. Before garbage time in the Super Bowl (11 quarters of playoff games), Worthy was averaging 53.45 yards and 0.36 TDs per playoff game (and that includes the 29-yard reception in the Bills game that definitely should have been called an INT or an incompletion---but the refs gave it to Worthy). He wasn't killing it all playoffs. Then, with 2:33 minutes left in the third quarter of the Super Bowl, with the Eagles winning 34-0, Worthy hits some big plays. Let me repeat that, the game was 34-0 in favor of the Eagles (34-6 going into the 4th quarter) when Worthy went off. Do you think maybe the Eagles had let up a bit at that point? Do you think Worthy still has that outburst if it's a one-score game at that point? I'm not knocking him for his SB production (it was still impressive and I'd be excited about it as a Chiefs fan as hopefully, things to come), I'm just saying I don't think you can use last year's playoffs as any kind of arbiter for these two players because Keon was in a weird place in our offense after coming back from injury and with Mack playing well in his absence (and Curtis Samuel getting healthy), and because the majority of Worthy's stats came in garbage time of a blowout. To be clear with their career stats thus far: Regular Season: Worthy (19 games): 64 recs on 107 targets for 721 yards and 6 TDs, 11.3 yards/rec, 6.74 yards/target. 142 rushing yards with 3 TDs. Coleman (17 gms): 46 recs on 79 targets for 759 yards and 5 TDs, 16.5 yards/rec, 9.6 yards/target. 8 rushing yards with 0 TDs. Total yards and TDs (reg season): Worthy 863 and 9 TDs; Keon 767 and 5 TDs (Worthy has played two more games than Keon and has 50 more touches). Total yards and TDs (reg season and playoffs): Worthy 1,150 yards and 12 TDs; Keon 789 yards and 5 TDs. (Worthy had 66 more touches than Keon.) Total yards and TDs (reg season and playoffs, minus SB garbage time): Worthy 1,002 yards and 10 TDs; Keon 789 yards and 5 TDs (Worthy with 60 more touches than Keon.) Like I said, it seems like a win/win scenario for both teams, imo. But either way, it will probably take a couple more seasons to make any true assessment, in relation to comparing the two players.

We played Justin Fields, Tua and Spencer Rattler….

(James Cook tilts his head...)

Vrabel has always preferred this approach. I hope we don't defer if we win the toss. Best way to set the tone in this game is a long scoring drive to start it off & make them play catch-up.

The reason he may have been falling down was trying to cut around White and cut too hard so White's being there caused him to slip. On NFL radio today they were talking about the same thing, that with limited pre-season, the first few weeks are like pre- season use to be and that causes the out of timing issues, penalties, etc. I also think a team like Buffalo with all the established vets likely plays the starters even less than some other team would that is turning over the roster like the Saints.

Expect a steady stream of rushes and ball control offense for BOTH teams.

These guys know their playbooks. They know their assignments. They have millions of dollars on the line. They are prepared.

I agree. His response and his delivery of the response sucked. He’s probably an a-hole. Gregg Williams 2.0? She could’ve asked the question with a not so derogatory tone and facial expression and he took extreme exception to that. When I heard her ask the question the way she did, I cringed in real time. Then cringed even harder with his reaction.

For once. Broken clock is still right twice a day.
