And McKenzie? I did not see most of the game (just the last quarter), were all three out of the game?

This!

Just saying, I think there is a strong correlational between turnovers and not winning. Dust it off, and move on to the Titans. Go Bills!

5 penalties? Had to be his worse game as a pro.

Hind sight is always wonderful, but I would have taken the FG after the loss of yards on the 3rd down call.

Did anyone ask him what he would need to do to get kick out?

It was, but I would also say the missed field goal before the half. Make that, and we at least tie the game in the 4th.

Yeah, hard to figure what that strategy was. Basically, admitting we can't win doing what we have been doing, so lets try to surprize them. Guest what, that does not work against good teams.

The predictable and unimaginative "Josh lost us the game post." You win the award for being the fastest on the draw. Congratulations!

I know dude, my attempt at a little levity was lost on you. My apologies.

interesting article. A fair assessment, with some editorial comments just for the entertainment value. Okay, just win on Sunday at it goes away--mostly.

Yes! Our offense has improved dramatically. Eliminate mistakes, and the game is there to be had.

Well, it's hard to say this this, but I totally agree with Rex ..... but then again, as many have said, "it takes one overrated person to know one."

A philosophical question about these stats: I noticed the Packers are high in each of the offensive positions (4 o-lineman). But, the Packers have not been good on offense this year. I'm sure there are many factors--as with any team. But . . . Does one weak link, that can be exploited by the D, undo all the good of the other four? And, does that one weak link over-inflate the grades of the others? How? By letting the Defense focus their best and most aggressive efforts at the weaker points, and then basically giving the better people a pass? Thus, inflating the number to the good of the better people? So while their grade may be high, the over-all results may still be poor? I think these stats have value, but if my theory above has any element of truth to it, the rankings might need a algorithm adjustment that considers the poor play of those around you, which results in less work you have to do while your teammate if doing a good imitation of a turnstile? Or, am I just over-thinking this? GO BILLS! BEAT BRADY!

Any good places to watch the game in the Albany / Schenectady area?

You mean Wade from the PS, yeah, that would be great! Get'er done Beane! ?

Good news for the Bills: 3-8 (besides us) are all NFC teams. Chiefs and Pats are pretty much a lock, and the AFC is wide-open after that. And after we win on Sunday, Bills will move to be with the Chiefs.?

All good points, thanks theRalph--although I would not put much stock in the Bills have handle pressure better. There may be no one better in the history of the NFL in handling pressure than Tom Brady and the NE coaching staff. Having said that, I get the feeling the one area of the Patriots that has been over rated is their Defense. Yes, they are number one in several major categorizes. But look at what they've played: a beat-up Steelers, Ben should not have been playing that day; an NFL JV team in Miami; and a severely weakened Jets team--since the Bills played them, that is. For NE, this is the first real offensive test they have faced. I strongly feel the Bills will expose them (well, at least bring them back to mere mortal status). And because of that, this will be a close game with a key turnover being the different ---- "Take care of the football Josh Allen!"

Totally agree. The Bills would jump at the chance to upgrade at ML and move him outside--which would be a double-upgrade. And this is not meant as a criticism of him, but like CC said, he is better suited outside.

I know, he never listens to me. Go figure?

Well, I was wrong. My money was on Vincent.

Well, now we can't use that one.

I go with Taylor. This: https://www.pff.com/news/pro-10-record-breaking-rookies-from-the-2017-nfl-season 8. Vincent Taylor, DI, Miami Dolphins PFF Era Record Broken: Highest run-stop percentage recorded by a rookie defensive tackle The former Oklahoma State Cowboy was taken in the sixth round of the NFL draft and was a real difference-maker for the Dolphins defense when he saw the field. Throughout the campaign, Taylor produced 12 run stops on just 89 run-defense snaps, resulting in a run-stop percentage of 13.5 percent, the best mark ever recorded by a defensive tackle.

Just one bad fail--someone missed a block on that play. If he makes 2 yards on that play, it's a non-issue. I agree, it gives makes the Defense think about.

Excellent work, the entire article. Nothing I would disagree with. Don't the Chargers always seem to start slow? Rivers is gamer (much like our own JA, but without the athleticism).
