  1. Possible but given that it looked like a season ended I am glad we are at least talking about the possibility of playing at this point
  2. I think for head coaches these factors don’t matter as much as control, pay and QB situation. If the Chargers are going to give him complete responsibility organizational control and the money he wants while looking at a good QB situation he is going to take the job.
  3. I would have at least had Ford over Settle.
  4. People like to blame the outside contractors but in the end the team is the client and sets the budget. The contractors probably came up with that number because it fit their budget a budget set by the team…
  5. Field looks good but with about 2.5 plus hours to go to the game will they be able to shovel out the seats?
  6. Genuinely glad they made the move. No need to risk people’s lives for a football game. The conditions on Monday should also be more reasonable to play in
  7. NFLN's biggest strength is NFL Films and Good Morning Football. I can't imagine NFL Films going away but then again league offices can be penny wise dollar foolish.
  8. Make Settle inactive, Poona has been trending upwards so keep him in the rotation but if there was ever a game where you need to big time run stuffers its this one. I like Settle he is a nice rotational DT but he is more of a penetrator than a run stuffer in my opinion.
  9. Buy: Special Teams unit: To put it mildly the ST unit has not been very good this season. Bass has missed a few makeable kicks, they have let up two TD’s plus a few other big returns, Harty had a big muff against the Chargers, Martin’s punting for a lot of the season was mediocre and up until Harty’s big return they haven’t made many big plays. BUT I think that’s going to go in the other direction. Martin’s punting has been a lot better and I think Harty is going to break off another big return. Bass also has been clutch in making kicks most notably against the Chargers. I think the ST unit has been energized by Harty’s return and Martin’s punting. Hold: Turnovers. This is the big IF in the Bills playoff chances. They are not going to have the ability to win multiple playoff games with multiple turnovers. You may get away with it once but consistently you can’t win playoff games with more than 1 turnover. It’s got to be a point of emphasis to get the turnovers to stay at 0 or at worst 1. Sell: Diggs is hurt and less effective. Diggs having a nice game against the Fins was a great sign after a very quiet stretch of the season. Diggs is going to come out like a champion and baller in the playoffs.
  10. I think in that article it stated that McD was always giving off the vibe of thinking what can go wrong towards the end of close games. Which I kind of agreed with. But since the bye week he is giving off the vibe of what can go right at the end of games. The team just feels like it’s not as tight towards the end of games.
  11. Luckily Knox and Dawkins on Thursday should have enough time to get better from illness and Harry hopefully gets back from his personal matter. Mitch had an illness designation last week on Friday and was already deemed good to play on Sunday the next days. Hopefully between Davis, Dodson, Douglas and Rapp they at least get 2 of the 4 going. I think Davis is likely out and Douglas will likely play the other two are 50/50. Everyone is banged up this time of year, not the worst injury report.
  12. He should be heavily fined and told that if it happens again he’s going to get a minimum 4 game suspension. This stuff has no place in the league it goes far beyond gamesmenship.
  13. Being a homemaker is a real job its ***** tough especially if you have young children. But to quote Eddie Murphy if your married to a man who has 50 million dollars you ain't no ordinary housewife, ends a meat like a mother...
  14. I don't see putting it on Peacock being that much different than putting it on ESPN. You have to pay for cable to get ESPN so either way it is behind a paywall? I generally agree the NFL should avoid putting a second paywall for playoff games its not in their best interest but if games are on cable why not a streaming service?
  15. With the weather likely being "ugly" this is likely going to be a 50/50 knuckleball-type game. The Steelers have a really strong defense and an offense that while not the best has some pieces (Harris is playing better and Pickins has looked alive) they also have a solid ST unit. The Bills are going to have to play big defensively and offensively not turn the ball over while running the ball conventionally well.
  16. All the Fins had to do was hold onto a 14-point lead with a few minutes left against the Titans and they would be the two seed. They beat the Cowboys they took care of the Jets they just had to beat the Titans with a lead late in the game. Well the Fins faltered and the Bills gave themselves a chance to win the division in the final week.
  17. Gabe Davis is capable of having a big game that I just don’t think Trent is really capable of. I loved what Trent did stepping up in his revenge game but I am not sure this team is better off with him over Gabe. That being said I think Shakir and the TE’s getting more snaps and targets is not a bad thing.
  18. I suspect they will consider making him a post June first cut after next season unless there is some massive changes Von makes to his deal
  19. Five straight playoff appearances, Five straight double digit win seasons and a chance tonight at four straight division titles tonight!
  20. Bills clinch a spot in the tournament now tonight they can get the two seed! Just a relief to know that at worst the Bills are gonna be playing next week. However, this doesn’t diminish the fact that the game tonight is of massive importance as I do not think going on the road three times is a good path to the Super Bowl. The Two Seed is still a much bigger upgrade for the Bills that will make a playoff run a lot easier as they can have home field for two rounds at a minimum
  21. Huge stop by the Titans there! Gotta just get a score here to go up three possessions and that should put you in a very strong position going into the later stages of the game. Can’t let up though still a lot of time left
  22. Titans hitting the Jags in the mouth right now. Gotta keep pressing the gas if you are the Titans plenty of time left. If you can get this next defensive stop it will really put the Jags on the ropes.
  23. Von’s contract is such that I think he will be back for 2024 at a minimum one more year. Poyer’s deal is reasonable enough that I think he gets one more year too, they will likely draft someone behind him to be the “heir apparent”. As far as Tre he is likely cut unless he works out a massive pay cut/restructure so that he can be more cap friendly and give him a chance to kick the tires one more time. But I do not see that happening. Hyde I think they let walk and replace him with a younger free agent or draft choice. Hyde may have one good year let or not but it’s gonna come down to having to start moving on from some of these vets a year too soon than a year too late. To sum up Tre and Hyde likely gone, Poyer and Von one more year.
  24. Say what you will about Von but he is a true professional.
