Well, it can't be much worse than what's on the field today. I think they were extremely conservative with his recovery, and probably planned to keep him out through the bye week regardless of how ready he was. I am confident that his knee is doing well, that he has learned the playbook inside and out, and that he has watched months worth of tape. He's a smart kid and I think he'll be OK within a couple of games. Welcome back, Max!

I wish the Bills had the CB depth to try Tre at Safety. I know he's "too small", but I'm pretty sure he can learn the job if he doesn't already know it by heart. He also seems to be tackling harder than ever. Could he be any worse than Bishop? That said, I don't think he's been that bad at CB.

You mean, the Hate Buffalo rally?

Yes, Beane calls in the picks, but it's hard for me to believe he does so in a vacuum, or that he would consistently go against his management/coaching team's consensus to make questionable picks. I think he's smart enough to know that's not where you micromanage. But it is his management/coaching team, and if they are collectively so ineffective at picking impact players in the early rounds, then maybe it is time for him to go. It's too bad, because I think he's a top-notch GM who has made a lot of bold and beneficial moves over the years. He just doesn't have the right team advising him on players and scouting.

It should be Cook, but I have also been wondering what happened to sending Ty Johnson down the field to catch some balls, regardless of the down. That was really effective at times last year.

It's too bad the emergence of Dart has probably secured Daboll's job in NY for another year. For a while there, it was looking like he might be available come December.

Edmunds was a guy who could make a legitimate impact while seemingly do nothing special. On balance, he was probably a better player to have at that position than Bernard. But he was way too expensive for what he did. I get why they moved on, but yeah it would be nice to have him in the mix.

I didn't realize Leonard Floyd was a Falcon. I miss that guy! It's a shame he only got to play one season here. Injury report indicates he's been getting plenty of Vet rest. He's probably going to be a pain tonight.

It was a bad Sunday for the Bills. Virtually every important outcome did not go their way. I can't handle going into the bye in 2nd place in the division! LETS GO BUFF A LO!

I don't think he plays until the cupboard is completely bare, and even then I think they might sooner sign or trade for someone else. I just don't think either party signed with the intent of him ever playing. That said, if I'm wrong and he's ready and willing, I wouldn't mind giving it a shot!

Bye week can't come soon enough. Hopefully they can bag enough wins to rest starters in week 18, too. It's going to be a long season.

Whoa now, Rasul was a really good player for a while. That was a great move at the time - he made an impact right away.

If they just keep doing what they're doing, they will end up with ~13 wins and Josh Allen. I'm not panicking.

Bills are fortunate to have their bye week just ahead of the deadline. I'm not expecting much of anything, but there are certainly needs and maybe an overfortified position or two.

Still not a lot of lateral movement going on there. Just the teeniest bit more than his first practice. They are really playing it safe, and it's probably going to be a while yet.

Beane is as good a GM as we could hope for. McD has his flaws, but Andy Reid is the only guy I would expect to have a better chance of winning the SB. I think hiring anyone else is just rolling the dice. And Andy Reid ain't available.

You think so, professor?

More bad news for Joe Flacco. His O-line situation just went from bad to worse! At least he had good interior linemen in Cleveland. He's going to get killed in Cincy!

The Chiefs can beat the best teams and be beaten by the worst teams. But in the end, they usually do more of the beating.

I watched the end of the game. Had I just shut the TV off and gone to bed in the 4th quarter, it would have been a miracle comeback.

I don't feel that bad about it. Sloppy game, but I don't think that's the way the Bills usually play. I couldn't stand watching Ed Hochuli's games, and his son is even worse. Classic overofficious jerks. The Bills will be fine. They aren't going to win every game, and the Pats are a good team with a legit QB now. The worst part was watching Diggs have his best game in years.
