Ah man. A replay? Didn't we win the first time? Replays are for what you guys call ties.
You sound like a guy who doesn't believe in marinating.
Man we were so close to a blowout.

What if it's a trade for Jordan Addison and Harrison Phillips?

yet alone one that could just be to accommodate injury signings for the next couple months…..can you imagine if it’s just pay 3-4 practice squad players?
And Beane goes on WGR doubling down about WRs 😂

This game felt like the Bills had been holding back a lot of the playbook in games prior, which makes me happy. Earlier on this season felt like they were holding back a lot more of the playbook than in past seasons. Not only that but the fever pitch before the game was insane, national media writing off the Bills for having a few bad games, and usually when the entire national sports media piles on against the Bills: Allen Iverson's favorite quarterback shows up.
After the first touchdown, it felt like the Bills were flirting with a blowout on the Chiefs, and again later when it was 28-13. I really wanted to see that but I think it was obvious the Bills played insanely better pretty much the entire game, and the stats prove that. Not only that, but it was nice to see the defense play with a meanness we haven't seen in a while. AJ's hit on Mahomes, Mahomes barely having any time in the pocket, Bishop's hit on Kelce, Reggie's blocks on #32 from the Chiefs. Loved every bit of it.

Apparently this is the accurate Josh Allen most recent Halloween photo. https://www.facebook.com/photo/?fbid=122175782276607375&set=a.122101364090607375

This was from a few years ago according to Hailee. This year's she's her character from Sinners but in the 90's not the 30's.

That's the opposite of "finding a rhythm". When you scheme to get the QB in a rhythm, the idea is typically some high percentage pass in the short to medium area. Think some short crossers or short outs. Throwing a lower percentage pass deep down field is counter productive to what you're looking for
You're right and that's bad grammar on my part, didn't mean it as a run on sentence when I mentioned the one or two shots down the field. Point was mostly to get KC defense to move a guy down to open some deep shot.

The thought I keep coming back to it is if this year's lack of offensive production is bc we haven't gone deep into the playbook? Mostly we've been doing zone runs, low routes, or jet sweeps, a few basic screens but that's it. In year's past folks people have talked about not showing too deep into the playbook until after the bye week or major games like this coming up.
I'm still on the fence about Keon's development and feel that has turned into more of a mob mentality driven wave of negativity. I like Steve Smith and believe some of his points on Keon, but Keon has almost as many yards less than 1.5 seasons into his career than Steve Smith did in his first 2 years, it's still early, I think his issues with the team are more conduct right now than anything, considering the recent benchings for conduct. They always talked about his jump game anyway and he runs a 4.7, so I never had any expectations of him being a YAC guy, just a red zone possession type WR that go get the jump ball, and if it doesn't work out then it's Beane's fault for drafting a 4.7 WR imo.
Anyway, I'm just curious if some think we haven't rolled out much in terms of playbook compared to past years, which has been a trend to try to get on a streak.

Call me crazy but I think the Chiefs are coming into Buffalo more limited. Pacheco is out, their left tackle is out and guard is possibly. Bills worst aspect on defense is rush defense and the test just got easier for them on that. We're also discounting the returns of Hoecht, Ogunjobi, and Hairston. This is also Christian Benford's first game against the Chiefs, last year in the Divisionals he got injured on that first play. I think if we can put up 27-30 points we win.
- Let James Cook: in 5 total matchups against the Chiefs, Cook has 232 yards, averaging 4.5 ypc, and 5 touchdowns. Keep the Chiefs high-powered offense off the field.
- Do something to get Josh in a rhythm early too, like one or two shots down the field, and hopefully he finds a rhythm.

Getting pregnant doesn’t feel like the culprit unless he really didn’t want to.
That said, I recall trying (and failing) to get pregnant with our second and that causing lots of emotional stress, especially with the miscarriages. Those were awful, and would cause anyone to have issues that bled into other parts of their life, especially depending how their wife handled it (not great in my case).
I'm wondering if that's what Hailee's "Can you really have it all" question came from.

FWIW she hasn't been seen as much publicly lately.

Can put this here or in Keon thread but Steve explains why Josh is getting off of Keon so quick and how he actually isn’t open even though people get in the comments and say he is open Josh didn’t wait long enough.
Steve explains why those people are wrong and Keon is a bust.
I like James Palmer a lot. Him saying he had people at the Browns telling him they couldn't believe they got a 3rd round pick for Amari Cooper. 😳

Yes, and way more indecisive as well. There are lanes that he wiukd take the minute he saw that his guys weren't getting open and he took it, which put so much more pressure on a defense.
When he runs now, its either this calling his own number, which the box is usually stacked against the run because that all we do well now, or he runs after waiting for 6-8 seconds.
Right? He's known for running like a deer, and maybe it's the indecisiveness or stuttering, I don't know, but it appears slower and makes me wonder about some type of unreported injury.

When Josh has ran the ball this year, to me he seems slower. Anyone else?

FWIW - I generally have a rule to let former players in the media give me analysis on my team only, not coaches or anyone else, and we're still getting a lot of respect from former players in the media.

To me, Josh has been off and it's more than just the responsibility of Keon Coleman. He's making throws that are off-target that he normally doesn't throw off-target.

You know what, that's a good question and a great point. Mack Hollins came up big against KC last year, particularly when Josh threw a dime for a touchdown, and it's hard to consider him a great WR. I don't really have a great answer for that.
I wouldn't consider him great, but I consider him worthy of being re-signed from last year, he gets seperation near the end zone and catches well. Plus I thought he was a good chemistry guy. -
Before he was drafted, a lot of folks had him projected to be drafted by us. Based on the way LSU WR's have turned out in this league, I'd love to see it happen. Strange how much he's fallen off this year compared to last year though.

I agree. But not for yesterday!
With no Kincaid and Palmer out, they needed to go to a run heavy set. And they started the 3rd quarter with that, and voilà. It worked. Then they stopped doing it. WTH.
Plus, against the blitz, more screen plays. And why not bring back the 6 Oline package that worked so well last year? Hawk can still be there. They have all the tools to run it down the other teams' throats. Last year, they used the run to open up the pass. It still is the best approach. But yeah, throw it deep too once in a while.
Most of Brady's hype came off the 6 o-line runs. It's crazy they haven't used that this year.

If anything, we should be trading for a Safety.

No.. The roster has just been very poorly managed around him the last few years
This. We invested $160 million in a decent slot WR, a backup TE who has only seen the field less since, and a Milano replacement when we should have been investing that into a #1 WR and Safety replacements for Hyde and Poyer.

So this will sound sacrilegious, but I've wondered if Josh Allen is paradoxically both why we are competitive and why we can't win the "big one".
I don't mean his contact size, nor do I mean anything negative about his performance (but of course he isn't perfect), but rather how much his "rope" his success has given to the tandem of our GM and HC. Are both actually not great at their jobs, but have job security because they won the lotto with Josh? And, if so, will that ultimately be our downfall?
I can't predict the future but I think the Chiefs and Mahomes have a significant advantage bc of their coaches who have significant Super Bowl experience, especially Reid and Spags, and I think that significantly helps their front office decisions. I don't think Josh's contract is an issue either, I do think our front office decisions of investing $100 million of contracts into Shakir and Knox was an example of being too eager and both would have probably played for half of that and that's money that could have been invested in drafting a true #1 WR or Safeties to replace Hyde and Poyer. I mean Beane looks really stupid now bc of his rant on WGR about WR's. You don't see Chiefs GM's or Eagles GM's doing that stuff.

Is it just me, or does it appear we don't have any major competition again except the Bucs and Eagles?
