1. O-line 2. WRs who get open 3. TE and WR downfield blocking 4. Better play-calling 4. Allen is a little quicker on the draw than last year

I get it, it's his life and he was done. But you don't walk out on your teammates in the middle of the game, just like you don't just walk out of any job if you care at all about the human beings you work with. There's a right way and a wrong way to quit, and sorry Vontae, you did it the wrong way.

What a nice bonus for the rest of the division, to have 2 games vs. the tankingest team in the league.

If Aaron Donald was on the team, the Bills could run the table as long as they scored at least 10 points every week.

It's definitely looking a lot better than it has in a while, but we still haven't seen how they look against a really good team.

I can't give him better than a B until he starts hitting guys in stride. He is still mostly putting the ball in places where guys have to adjust awkwardly, and have no shot at running anywhere after the catch. If he ever gets that dialed in, he will become a Hall of Famer.

Morse and Knox each had rock-star blocks on the McKenzie and Singletary touchdown runs.

I'm sure he wants to be playing somewhere, but if he's going to be a Dolphin, Fitz is better off riding the pine and collecting his checks. You don't want to be his age, getting beat to death, playing for a garbage team that has no chance of making the playoffs. If I were him, I'd just retire.

Oh, Josh, Josh, Josh...

So, when do they show the Wide Right clip? I'm guessing 3rd quarter, during a coach's challenge.

I think that regardless of how good your defense is, you try to score a touchdown on every offensive posession. Run, pass, what difference does it make unless you're actually behind on the scoreboard and are forced to take more chances and pass more. It's not like if you're up 10-7 you're going to take your foot off the gas because you have a great defense. In the NFL, you can't let up on offense until you have a sizable cushion of points late in the game.

How does the NFL have the right to interview his accuser? They don't have any legal jurisdiction. Not sticking up for AB at all here, but this kind of stuff just blows my mind - that the NFL can conduct its own investigation of something as serious as rape, and that apparently because this is a civil case, they could go with whatever conclusion they want. And why a civil suit; why aren't the police involved? This whole thing is so bizarre to me. It's like law and order goes out the window when a famous athlete is involved.

The spleen thing is no joke. I lost a dear friend in an otherwise routine ski fall, because he was misdiagnosed and had no idea his spleen was enormous. He bled out in the ambulance, probably 15 minutes after the fall. Darnold could be out a while, regardless of whether or not he’s fatigued.

I have a feeling Saquon will have a big day with lots of 10-20 yard runs, but I think the Bills win regardless.

I have also heard a lot about execution, making adjustments, and taking it one game at a time. I wonder if it's all connected?

Can ya blame him?

Good on him. I'm sure he's glad to be out of Miami and gainfully employed.

He's going to be hard to keep, but hopefully he's open to an extension at a solid but non-ludicrous pay rate. He will likely garner a lot of demand on the free agent market in 2021, and I'm sure his agent knows it. It's a good thing the Bills have a bunch of cap space in the coming year; they're going to need it to keep this D together!

He still tends to throw directly at the receiver's chest, instead of leading him. The receiver has to either adjust or simply stop running to make the catch. Even the TD to Brown was like that. The announcer put a nice spin on it, as if Allen put it there so Brown could duck under the DB, but really it was just a mediocre placement. Good enough for a completion, but usually not enough to turn a big play.

It's easy for us to say it was a bad tackle, but sometimes even the strongest NFL defenders don't have the proper leverage at the moment of contact to make a good tackle, even when it looks like they should have had it on TV. Bell got the first down because he's a BMF.

That was really nice to see. You gotta love when the new guys perform right out of the gate. Also, Zay didn't get a lot of throws his way, but he made good grabs when called upon. Beasley had two ugly drops, but I'm sure he'll bounce back. Also great to see the 6th round TE making plays, and Singletary doing damage catching out of the backfield. All in all, this is looking like a really solid group of pass options. Hopefully Allen can dial it in better in the weeks to come.

He also ate a lot of double teams, which led to good pressure from other guys.

More than anything else, I think the question of "Are the Jets for real?" was answered. They had three players doing everything - Bell, Crowder, and Moseley, and when Moseley got hurt, it was all over. They had countless opportunities to bury Buffalo, and couldn't get it done. That's a fragile team.
