Reid Ferguson was also the guy who got bulldozed against the Rams when they blocked the punt that turned out to be the difference in the game. So he is responsible in part for us not being the #1 seed.

Spotrac says that's what Tee is worth. Ja'marr makes a 5th year option in 2025 of 22MM [unless he holds out]. Agreed, Chase will reset the WR market spotrac saying at least $33MM average.

Burrow is saying that he wants them to keep Higgins. Not sure how you have a $45MM QB, pairing that with two $25MM wideouts. That's 35% of your projected cap for 3 players. Throw in Hendrickson at $20MM, coupled with one of the least financially sound owners [Mike Brown], not sure how they do this. Also keeping wideouts into a second high priced contract is looking like a bit of a gamble.

Well considering the head coach [Saleh] they fired was considered an elite DC???

Speed and quickness have a shelf life. Receivers get banged up with hits where they can't protect themselves. Average age of the 10 wide receivers with the most receiving yards is 24 - 5 are still on their rookie contracts.

That team had a decent Wade Phillips defense, but the offense, with 36 yr old Jim Kelly was middle of the pack - not nearly as explosive as the 2024 Bills. that team scored 14 rushing touchdowns fewer than James Cook did by himself.

he graded out at a 53.3 overall grade, very strong pass block grade 78.3, less so on running plays 44.5 still a bit undersized at 6-7 290, probably will have an offseason program to get bigger and stronger.

I only counted the common site game [@ NY], I also didn't count the Bronco's win over the KC scrubs.

Interesting in a ranking of NFL ownership, most of the "old NFL family" franchises are a hot mess. Mark Davis, Mara's, Halas[McCaskey], Bidwells, Jerrah, Mike Brown. Only "old line" teams highly regarded are the Rooneys and the Hunts. Jury still out on the Lions as they have only been good for a couple of years. Kraft may be slipping with his recent coaching fiasco. McDermott was once a "hot shot assistant"

We played 5 common opponents. Both teams got blown out by the Ravens. Bills were 4-0 vs. Full strength Chiefs, Colts, Jets, and Seahawks, total Bills margin in those games was +43. Bronco's split 2-2 against the same 4 teams with a margin of +11. Biggest outlier was the Seahawks, where Bills won by 21, Broncos lost by 6.

Than apparently they all had to stay in Denver because KC airport was closed. Nothing worse than losing a road game and having to stay over.

Exhibit 1 - Levi Wallace - who unfortunately for us, just got waived by the Bronco's on Christmas Eve.

Haslam, the name is Haslam

Bishop finally got enough snaps to be ranked, he is 93rd of 97 safeties, Hamlin is 68 of 97 - guess it will depend on Hamlin's health.

Also have to wonder who would ever want to work for Shad Khan at Jax. Between having to lose a home game every single year, two overseas games, and a moribund fan base.

I did notice Cybo picked up 3 special teams snaps, to keep his perfect games played streak alive, no small feat for an O lineman. We had 13 players get "perfect attendance" awards playing in every game Josh Hollins Ty Johnson Alec Anderson Ray Davis Dorian Williams AJ Epenesa Cam Lewis Ingram Cybo Bass Martin Ferguson Old saying - #1 ability is availability - kudo's to strength & conditioning and training staff.

Why does everyone say he's a small linebacker. He was 240 at his pro day, listed at 232 on the Roster. That's pretty close to the average size for the top linebackers.

Food for thought, Refs the Bills haven't seen this year: Cheffers Hochuli Rogers

Our entire O-line just did OLE' on that last run

Buffalo Joe 9 tackles to go with 8 last week

Is it scheme or are our DB's just not able to break on the ball?

Yeah, that and the punt block against the Rams, wondering if Ferguson is at the end of his tenure.

Bass shanks the PAT

Martin's Inside 20 was his 25th
