Beas must be having stone hands in practice or something... We don't have the OL for it and Josh is not the best on the short stuff.

I would hope for the same. Don't get me wrong. I've seen them pull things out (for example, the last few weeks...). It just wasn't looking good with the Bengals poised to make it 14-3 in the next minute or so. The Bills D did not have really good answers the entire quarter to that point. Just making a point but still holding out hope.

That's a pretty big leap of logic there.

The odds of that were pretty small in their home stadium.

OK, I thought that was the first year for that. Yeah there were other reasons. 3rd and 13 was devastating.

The difference is that we would be facing Burrows w/o Hamlin and possibly Taron. Was looking to be a long night in any case. Bills could still win if Josh had an MVP night in a tough environment. That's all beside the point now, though. The game was suspended. Best possible outcome is that Hamlin improves and they push everything back a week and kill one of the "prep" weeks for the Super Bowl. The Packers didn't need that in '66.

I've always thought that 2-week break was dumb and I believe it cost the Bills a win in their first SB appearance.

Except the Bills were facing Burrows with 2 DBs down from an already depleted squad. Josh would have had to score 8 points on every drive to win that game.

When I watched the replay it looked like he knew he was going to run into to him so he tried to grab him and keep him from going down. Didn't work...

The Jets' D is way better than the Pats D. I don't blame the Bill for not trying the middle of the field since they have good coverage LBs. That's just a tough D to crack. If they ever get an offense, they will be very difficult to beat.

Ugh, I hate all the solid color unis, but the reds are the worst. Blue on white and all whites and sell off the rest. While we are at it, bring back the standing Buffalo!

I'll go along with this if two things happen: 1. Dorsey gets his Miami head out of his arse and learns to predict what the other D will do after halftime 2. We get some guys back healthy on defense. It's a hot mess in the backfield right now.

That's why you don't blitz as much. You ask too much of backup DBs

Dude, Cornelius Bennett, James Lofton, Don Beebe, Kelso and Jones, Darryl Talley, Metzelaars. All better than their current counterparts.

Virgil, I love your writeups, but this is not your best overall take. By halftime, half of our team is from the practice squad. Short week, down some really excellent players, and an obvious climate challenge (same as the fins will have in December). Some mistakes that could have turned things shows that we have good depth and almost took one from a confident team at home with some good players. I agree that Miami is kind of the like the Bills were some years ago. They will go 4-0 and then start the tumble.

Catharsis was coined by Aristotle. It's not a religious thing.

Nice game today, but there is a reason he is a back up.

Moss did well yesterday. He is a strong back.

My favorite games were always snow games. Watching Kelly manhandle the Fins in the snow was awesome. Gotta have a reason for all that cold weather Bills gear! Fans looked like they were having a blast today.

1. Color rush uniforms should never be worn again 2. Brown is not ready for LT and maybe never will be 3. We still need a large bruiser RB

and he drops at first contact usually. I did see one play where he shook off a tackler and was pretty amazed. It's a rare sight.

Yeah, fortunately I missed this one but kept up with the score. Got embarrassed at home on both sides of the ball. My first thought was "How did the Colts lose 5 games?" and then I was just sad. This was supposed to be a special year, but it looks like the Patriots will destroy us twice (if they play like this again).

If he hasn't by now, he may never. We don't know enough about long COVID

and an all-pro OL

I hate this but it's true.
