What I want to know is How Cinci manages to pay a top tier QB and TWO top tier WR's plus gesicki, who is a top 20 TE.

Just curious since we played both and lost to the Falcons and beat the Bucs, would this game affect the Bills deep in the weeds of tiebreakers for seeds?

Bills - def Pats at home.

2026 - Closing: Sunday, October 4th (Traditional gun salutes)

If 7 beats 2, do they reseed so 7 plays 1 in the next round?

October game in Munich might be appealing to those of the beer drinking persuasion.

Still curious what's going through the Vulcan mind meld of McD, Babich and the rest of the defensive staff In the Cinci game, PFF had our DB's graded as follows: Benford - 59 snaps - 90.7 grade, key int for TD, sack, basically neutralized Chase Hancock - 22 snaps - 69.1 grade, solid day Bishop - 45 snaps - 60.5 grade, cramped up in the 4th Qtr Hairston - 25 snaps - 59 grade, not bad for a rookie against the Bengals receivers Poyer - 47 snaps - 51.6 grade, showing his age Taron - 59 snaps - 39.3 grade, not a great showing Tre' - 36 snaps - 34.9 grade, yikes [and frequent victim of Higgins] Lewis - 25 snaps 27.7 grade, can we do better? So basically 40% of our DB snaps are below replacement level.

I'm hoping that McDermott and Babich start Thompson at LB this week. Think we need his size and savvy. I can see Stevenson running over Bernard and Milano on short yardage. I worked in Nashville from '99-02. Was at the Stadium for the Music City Forward Lateral.

My DIL is from Statesville NC, but lives in Vermont. Trust me she uses y'all.

Falcons game was another comedy of errors. How did we lose to a team that lost to the panthers 30-0, [a team Bills beat 40-9] and only put up 14 points???

I can remember when Tech and Iron City were delivered door to door along with Charles Chips.

The deal Mac Hollins signed with NE didn't exactly break the bank, and we let a trusted guy who blocks his tail off go to the competition for Chump Change.

There is one really elite unit in this game on Sunday - Buffalo's offense. If they show up to play, avoid turnovers, and McD gets a halfway decent game from the likes of Milano, Taron, Tre White, & Poyer, we should have the advantage.

I was also impressed how he kept the db in front of him, to avoid a phantom holding call. Vet move there.

Cooks doesn't have Keon's size, but that signing suggests the Bills know they need to get faster on the boundary.
