Milano looking for his j*ck on that play
-
Benford active, probably with a club for a hand.

I've got no problem with Gilliam pass blocking and taking a few carries. I like the way he runs and think, Franky, he does Moss' job better than Moss.
Plus Gilliam gives you the H back option if needed.

Wow I can't believe that J Phillips is the only one with an injury designation out of that huge list.
Kumerow is listed as OUT. Taiwan has only practiced once this week.
Should we be concerned re: special teams, with that much experience not playing?
The way I read it, Kumerow, Phillips, T. Jones, Knox, and Benford will be inactive.
Phillips and Knox are obviously the biggest losses.

Fivethirtyeight has the Bills at Chiefs as 50-50 pickem, with 99% in quality and importance. Certainly the game of the year to this point.

Great question. I see numerous replays and continue to wonder who had possession, when they established possession, and when the play was officially over. Does tie go to WR? It looked to me like Fitzpatrick had possession with two feet down before Davis wrestled it away. I don’t care to know the actual answers, it’s just an interesting debate.
Possession and two feet down doesn't matter unless he was OOB or down by contact. They were still running and the play was still in progress, and Gabe always had a hand on the ball. Once they cross the goal line, possession would have to be clear for either player to have a catch. Gabe ended the play with both hands on the ball in the endzone, and neither player was down by contact.

Are the Chiefs guilty of looking ahead past this game? Unusual for them to miss so many 3rd down conversions.
-
Jacobs scored standing up against the middle of the Chiefs defense
-
Depending on the outcome, that play might bump Josh to Gabe's 98 yarder out of pass play of the week.

A machine calculating all vectors and factors could not have thrown that more precisely. No wonder commentators keep calling Allen a cyborg. I mean, in that throw, we saw the apotheosis of what a human being is capable of.
vectors, factors, precisely, cyborg, apotheosis, you are raising the reading level of this site immeasurably.

It’s because our RBs aren’t actually any good.
So yesterday, our "not any good" running backs had 11 carries for 80 yards with long runs of 23 and 24 yards[TD], the other 9 carries [some in garbage time] averaged 3.7 yards. Josh had 5 carries for 42 yards, including a couple of designed runs. With our passing attack, how many teams will be stacking the box, no one wants to force us to throw.

Crazy throw, but what about the other bomb to Davis yesterday? How could that ball have been more perfect? Hits Davis exactly, precisely, in stride, where the safety had no chance at it, despite being draped all over Davis. And the throw was, what, 55 yards in the air?
It also happened to be not just an amazing throw, but also an amazing catch and amazing defense. How often do you see those three amazings line up?
Actually watching the replay Josh threw the ball from his own 32, and Davis and Minkah get their hands on the ball at the 6, so 62 [18+44] yards in the air, with the runner and db in full stride.
the 98 yard play was "only" 48 yards in the air.

2x first team all-pro Minkah Fitzpatrick
Not sure Minkah has ever had a receiver use pure hand and arm strength to rip away a ball he had his hands on. That was a Wow, as was Allen's 65-YARD throw.

Not sure how he grades out as a blocker but separation and hands he is very solid.
His hands [or ball security] needed to be better on that fumble into the EZ

I follow Ken Massey, his ratings are starting to be accurate by this time of the season.
He gives us a 58% win chance at KC although that could move after tonight.
He has the GB [79%] @ Patsies [74%] @Bungles [71%] games below 80% win chance.
All others are above 80%.
We have three of his top 10 in the next 4 games, @KC [3] GB [9] & Minny [6].
Fwiw

Burrow is going to wind up like Andrew Luck if the Bungles don't fix their pass blocking.
-
Does this mean L'il Dirty may be back to being a gadget player and kick returner.
-
I did notice the back judge tomorrow will be Brad Freeman, his dad Steve had a long career with the Bills from 1975-1986 and was also an NFL referee.

Cornerback is valued for top players at about $5MM more than safeties, based on franchise tag numbers. We have the third highest DB payroll in the league already. Doubt we want to pay Tre #1 corner money to play safety.

Does the absence of TJ Watt mean the Bills can concentrate more on Heyward? Last year those two meant a pick your poison.

Then we have to activate Tre White, Tyrel Dodson, and Marquez Stevenson in the next 3 weeks.
Andre Smith comes off suspension for the Green Bay game. He has been a core special teamer in the past.

True but had Lamar seen him earlier it was an easy TD. That INT was huge.
Lawson and Rousseau were both quick off the ball and blocking his vision

I low key think he could wind up playing FS for us also.
Yeah with Hyde gone for the year, this could be the endgame once Tre and Benford are game ready.
Lotsa game experience, not much he hasn't seen.
As a bigger DB he could also be a big nickel hybrid.
He spent a lot of years in the NFC North and we face all those teams this year after the bye.
