Two seasons ago raiders chargers week 18 almost ended in a tie, similar situation, except both would be in and not out I recall.

Making the most money he possibly could out of that last contract was extremely important to Von. If Von’s play just deteriorated to this low level solely due to age, I would be the first one calling for his retirement. However, the fact is that a major injury caused this decline. Injury is the main reason players negotiate for guaranteed contracts. So, Von will get his money and there is nothing that can be done about it.

Bills chances of beating Miami increase if the Steelers and Jags win imo. In almost every single case Allen has needed to bring the team down the field this year he has done it. FG v the Jets to force OT, twice against the Jags to keep us in it, twice against the Pats, against the Broncos, fourth quarter v the Bengals, twice against the Eagles, giants in the second half, chargers last drive. The offense is at its best when desperate and backed against a wall.

Don’t they need to sign Brown. If he is a mid level starting tackle, what is that, about 8 per?

The team has much more of a gambling big play defense this year that emulates the style of defense that has won the most recent several super bowls, as well as a running game. Like their chances

92 yards away from 10,000. Still can’t get over that Moulds finished with a career 9,995

AJ mcKarran was the bridge QB but they realized he was awful - not any better than the flyer on the roster Peterman so they dumped mcKarran just before week 1. Bills were in the market for other bridge QBs but mcKarran ended up as their choice somehow, maybe because he was the cheapest.

in ‘92 Bills had the 1 seed locked up at 12-4 with a win at the Oilers, but lost and had to play the next week as the 5 hosting the Oilers.

There are oline situations that are complete disasters. The jets situation may be even below these. They are going to have to unload a defensive asset or two in order to give Rodgers any kind of shot next year.

I was originally angry about the possibility being out of the playoffs with a loss but now I am have warmed up to it. Bills likely need the 2-seed to make a realistic run at the Lombardi this year, and if they don’t get in they get to draft #18, which has been the sweet spot for drafting a #1 wr.

Have to think Vrabel’s seat is at least warm and he will be going all out for a 6th win.

that and the chargers are a veteran max-contract type of team

Teams who used to be afraid of Allen beating them deep are now crowding the line and daring him to beat them deep knowing he is now so turnover conscious.

He did pretty good that New England playoff game

A lot of things we will miss when he’s gone, like his ability to totally dismantle average to poor quarterbacks, his ability to scout quality DBs on the cheap, his ability to see an undersized third round linebacker as a defensive centerpiece.

DBs used to fear Allen beating them with a deep corner route - now they know he won’t throw it because it’s too risky. They have also stopped giving Diggs a huge cushion partly because Allen won’t throw the deep corner route and partly because Diggs is getting up there in age.

I get the point about Fournette>Murray, but Murray seems to necessary to the Jush push.

Kyle Brandt came out and said that Damar has already received enough accolades. I agree with this take. nonetheless, if he loses at awards night it will be as awkward as when Fitzgerald and Eli were awarded co-man of the year, leaving the third nominee just sitting there.

Knock on wood, I have never seen an oline stay this healthy for so long. Not sure if any of the starting 5 have missed a snap due to injury. Need to leverage this into a Lombardi.

Their secondary seems to be a strength of their team. Snead has gotten much better and has been shutting down 1s. McDuffie is very good.

Ifedi will be signed elsewhere over the weekend. So many oline rooms around the league are a mess and Kromer is respected.

Love the Allen island in the middle of Wyoming

He sure expended a lot of capital with that one preseason play as a Bill. Sometimes I feel it consumed half my life for that route to develop.

Wonder what Saffold got last year. This tradition seems outdated. Now the oline is the second or third highest paid position group.

they will not cut ifedi. Developmental olinemen are like gold these days. I’d say Ford, but they are too injured at that mosquito. Maybe matekevich or Spector given they can just sign Klein back off the street in a pinch.
