What if Tyreek Hill had made the finger guns before beating his girlfriend... would they be ok with it then? They're just salty because their QB can only make finger pee-shooter gestures.

That's what it looks like to me... "this guy, get him outta here"

Re Falcons, I didn't think so either, then this happened...

They finished it up with "say hi to D for me" to which Allen responded "Yeah, say hi to Willya"... also variations of deez nutz jokes.

Saints Patriots Falcons Panthers Chiefs Dolphins Buccaneers Texans* Steelers* Bengals* Patriots Browns Eagles Jets Despite the score, they never felt like they were going to lose the game last night unless they made a huge mistake along the way. Half of their schedule above (bolded, italicized) they will likely be able to play like that and win. Possibly throw the Bengals into that mix once there's more tape on Browning. I also don't think the Steelers are destined for greatness. The Texans still have a great defense, but Stroud looks lost. I expect us to beat the Falcons, but we may have to work a bit harder on offense than we have aside from the Ravens game. Last week and this week, it really had the feel of a clearly superior, dominant team only opening the playbook enough to get the W. It kinda feels like we're going to try to run the ball down teams throats, take the short stuff, and shorten the game as our primary MO unless the opponent forces us to do more than that. It may be boring AF, but in the end if we're healthy and dominating going into Jan/Feb, I'll take it.

No Bills gear. Same chair. Pacing at times. The choice to avoid gear is “littlestitious” (not super… but a little). The chair is because it’s either that or sit on one of my 2 dogs. The pacing is unconscious habit in a close game. It’s my routine until it needs to be changed.

Division rival on the ropes at 0-2 and always play us close early in the year… this was not the game we wanted to see, but I’m hardly surprised that it’s the game we got. 3-0 is 3-0 no matter how you get there. GO BILLS!!!

I never realized that Tre White was on that episode of family feud! Actually, lots of current and former Bills in that episode… Tyrod, Mitch, Tre, Diggs

C'mon, guys. Brady NEEDS this broadcasting job. He's no longer married to one of the world's richest supermodels, and the therapy bill alone for his son related to the emotional trauma from Tom's lingering kisses on his lips is probably bankrupting him.

Cook to me is Kamara light. Not as physical a build as Kamara but a tougher runner than you'd expect. He has the gliding acceleration that I think is hard for defenders to key on, has the lateral escapability, has the receiving skills (when there's no lapses in concentration). I'm not a fan of paying big money for RBs, but I have no problem with the Bills paying what they're paying for Cook's skill set.

https://www.buffalobills.com/video/can-t-miss-play-40-yard-run-by-josh-allen-bills-qb-mashes-turbo-button-bills-vs-jets-week-2 I can't get it to embed, but if you watch it he has someone inside of Adams, but that guy is behind the play and probably 5+ yds inside of the boundary. He may have the angle on Allen after he's slowed by Adams, but if he doesn't Allen scores.

IDK, honestly he was probably putting himself at more risk of an ankle injury hurdling over the fallen linemen on that play than he was stiff arming a CB. Also, I just re-watched the play, and I stand by my earlier assessment, if he can put Adams down he picks up another 15-20 yds at least if he doesn't end up scoring.

I don't think he switched the ball to his left hand for security... I think he did it so that he could stiff arm the defender. Without re-watching the play, IIRC, his stiff arm didn't really connect, and it would have been more of a push, AND if it did connect and was successful he would basically have had a clear path to the endzone. Allen plays big boy football.

Isn't this the guy that whacked Nancy Kerrigan in the knee with a pipe? I have only one thing to say to you, sir...

This obscenity filter snafu (I said snafu, oh omniscient obscenity filter, not *****) always makes me laugh.

I can't remember if it was the 2020 season or the 2021 season when Milano got hurt and AJ Klein had to start... it was the season before AJ headed off into the sunset in his camper before abruptly having to turn around. The first game Klein was awful because they were expecting him to play the role Milano plays and he was physically incapable of doing that. Then they adjusted his responsibilities and he had a pretty significant impact playing the game he was suited to play. I hope they don't ask Williams to play Milano's game... he doesn't seem to have the football IQ to do that. I hope they simplify the game for him as best they can, point him in a direction and yell "git em!!!".

WRT top 5, it depends where Henry ends up IMO. I think it's reasonable to expect that Allen's rushing TDs will tail off as he gets older. I don't think we see 120s+ from him, but I think cracking 100 is very doable.

TDs Allen has 67 career to date.

...not the 4th Q of the Ravens game when Allen put up 251 yds?

Joe Brady probably has a lot to do with this, as well.

Better Williams than Spector or Klein...

I acknowledged that Burrow has more talent and more talent around him on offense. My point is that he's getting beat up like David Carr did in Houston.

I could be mistaken, but I thought I recalled either Nantz or Romo saying midway through the second Q that it already felt like the Bills were just trying to milk the clock.

In those 78 games Burrow has been sacked 201 times, whereas Allen has been sacked 191 times in 126 games. He may be injury prone, but playing in Cincy isn't helping. Burrow is basically David Carr with more talent and more talent around him... although David Carr held up to the punishment better.

I think you could make a compelling argument that the cumulative pounding that Burrow has taken thus far in his career exceeds what Allen has taken, despite Allen playing a much more physical style. Burrow hangs in to the last second and gets blasted a lot, and he has to because of his line play. Yesterday may have been a routine tackle, but at 28 years old, he's probably absorbed the abuse that someone in their mid 30s at the position would have taken, so he's probably more likely to get injured as a result at this point.
