Hoke, a DT on the Steelers for 11 years, talked extensively about the difficulty when playing 2 gap scheme against Cook - mainly his sudden change of direction in small space - like "I'm holding onto the O-Lineman seeing you in the left gap then next moment I don't see you at all." I remember Rex used to talk about Shady McCoy jumpcut you in a phone booth. Cook does that without a jump.

A.I. can be very funny:

My biggest concern regarding the New England game in 2 weeks is the fact that New England has a bye next weekend. I don't like the idea of New England's coaches having an extra week to put a game plan together, not to mention the game is in New England.

Yeah, in the verb form it works as what you’re implying here. As far as it validating poor schlep as a colloquially alike meaning, it’s not even close. To be called a "poor schlep" is an expression combining Yiddish and English to describe a person who is seen as unfortunate, pitiable, clumsy, or ineffectual, often a chronic loser. I didn’t fall for your conn, he put down those Sabre folks rather clearly.

Wait. What happened? Am I still on the Jets?

I'm just hoping we can beat Bengals OR Pats right now.

We face 2 of the top 10 rush defenses still (Browns and Patriots). Then again, we face the 24th and 25th rush defense still (Eagles and Jets) as well as the 31st ranked rush defense this week in Cincinnati. If he can have a HUGE game this week...175 yards...then I think he positions himself well. But he really needs to take advantage of the Bengals poor rush D this week.

he hurt his hamstring against the steelers and could miss some time.... so there goes the pass rush if he misses games.

Pats are operationally smooth. Top to bottom. Maye is so accurate. He has a multi Super Bowl champion OC. They have speed everywhere. We’re gonna get steamrolled in NE.

James Cook's super power is his ability to get skinny in tight quarters. He does a lot of things well but that ability to get skinny allows him to make positive plays when it looks like there's nothing there.

Well, we know from this game that if a team pukes all over themselves, the Pats can hold on to win at home. I don't think any more insights can be gleaned from this one.

I think 1800 is reasonable. How much fun is he to watch? His personality is perfect for our team. When he had that devastating fumble that led to go ahead score, he came out and took the game over. Having him and Josh together for years to come give Bills fans a reason to believe we’re not far from a championship.

Only HC that I remember not wearing a headset. I have a friend that reminds of this several times a year 😄

Well, I think the Patriots are currently the best team in the NFL. That can change as I don't think they are as dominant as, say, the Chiefs have been in other seasons, but many of the contenders are playing inconsistent football. They are a very consistent, technically sound team with good coaching. And they have a fair bit of cap room for next season. And I feel sad saying this, but Maye looked amazing tonight. Yes, it's the Giants, but his mechanics may be the best I've seen from a QB on the field this season. He is so technically sound with his footwork, his downfield vision, etc. I was impressed. I hope it's not true, but the Pats look like another dynasty is on the horizon. None of the above, however, means we can't beat them in two weeks! We will just need to play well and get some breaks.

Nothing really. Don't turn it over, establish the run better.

One of the few times when I am hoping for some terrible weather!

idk but it looked like a fresh attitude mattered

Hear me out, what do the Bills need to do differently when they play the Patriots again?

But you understand the heart of what I'm saying.

If we win out, at worst, we will still have a shot at the division and the 3 seed right up until Week 18. If Pats lose to Miami (you never know), we would take the division at that point. Pats losing to the Jets the week prior works too. Assuming the Colts and Jags both lose at least one more, we would then have the 2 seed. To get into the 1 seed, we would also need the Chargers to lose at least one more, and the Broncos to lose two of Vegas, Chiefs, Jags and Chargers. The key is to keep winning, and the 1 seed conversation can stay open.

If Brown is not 100% than he should not play. Dawkins should be fazed out even if he is healthy. At this point he’s not effective enough to justify his undisciplined penalty riddled play. Let’s not delude ourselves with his overrated status, he almost got Josh killed in Houston with the 8 sacks and Anderson taking his lunch money.

lmao

Was it Bradley Cooper?

how many more times do we play pittsburg?
