Joshua Patrick Allen.

Without the officiating doing so, Allen won’t be stopped today.

These officials make me want to fight them.

I don’t know - the difference between an above average defense and elite is Matt Milano. Milano of the last three years is one of the most disruptive linebackers I’ve ever seen - in both the run and pass game, which is unique.

My observation is that this McDermott/Frazier defense struggles when teams are content to work 5-7 yards and in (a lot like our game plan against the Jets). Get the running game working, get to second and manageable, 3rd and short, make the run and pass viable, utilize play action and misdirection, repeat, sustain long drives. Burrow is literally the master at this type of offense, in my opinion, given his decision-making and accuracy. Death by a million cuts. And what the Bengals are currently able to do, but probably will not be able to do as consistently after Higgins leaves for the big contract, is convert the 3rd and long after a penalty takes them out of the 5-7 yards and in offense. In my view, this is what is killing the Bills in these matchups. They (finally) get the Bengals off-script due to a penalties or a first down stop, and Burrow-Higgins delivers a big play. I think getting a healthy Milano back AND Higgins gone likely changes the dynamic here next year. As we have learned as Bills fans, when your stars eat up all your cap and the roster ages, your second guys (#2 WR, #2 CB, etc) that are middle to late round picks really start to matter to game outcomes.

Scouting Report: Jets stand as tall challenge in Joe Brady's first game as new Bills offensive coordinator ‘Jets 17, Bills 16.’ BUFFALO NEWS | 20 HOURS AGO Hometown newspaper - unbelievable.

Gabe never appeared as the slot WR in this offense that I’m aware of.

Considering they shut it down for the entire fourth quarter and still rolled up 400 yards of offense and 30+ points against a top 5 D… I’m not sure what more you want. I don’t think we threw a pass for the final 10 minutes of game time.

Felt like a bills game for the first time in awhile. Things didn’t feel like a grind at all. Big plays all over the field, guys looked like they were having fun. Clean game that was never in doubt. Least stressful game in weeks.

In some cultures, that’s considered a compliment.

Wonder if Dolphin fans complained about Dorsey during halftime too…

No, your eyes are playing tricks on you. He watches more film, so he’s more situationally-aware.

Literally every bounce. Tipped interception, tipped 2 point conversion, 4th down TD that re-directed into Evans’ stomach, fumbled punt back into the returners hands, fumbled snap that bounces cleanly back into Mayfield’s hands, weak illegal contact call on Taron on the first 4th down conversion, a face mask on the 2nd 4th down when that could have easily been blown dead on a QB being in the grasp, dropped pick by Poyer, Neal just missing pinning the last punt inside the 5. A lot of good luck.

1pm game? I should be ready to go… call me “game time decision”.

Bye, Joe. Came up small when it counted. Dumb mistakes by a young team. Long offseason for the Bengals. I’m “heartbroken”. Good riddance, Joe “Cool”.

No way Josh lets this team lose at home in the playoffs. Bring on Mahomes.

Kelce went for 10-115-3 in that second Charger game. Not sure that constitutes textbook containment of Kelce.

Playing flat against a backup QB at home in the playoffs is all part of their grand design.

I’m concerned that the Bengals aren’t compiling the requisite style points tonight to be taken seriously as “Super Bowl-worthy”.

We were loading up on style points on our way to a 12-3 lead on the Giants.

BRING ON BURROW! Let’s go, Buffalo!!

Hey, then rejoice… then feel relief all over again.

Who cares. Simulate it on Madden, if you want if you want to talk yourself into feeling terrible. There aren’t extra byes awarded for winning by 30. We are in the exact same spot as last year, except with a home game. Onward.

Pro Bowl snub - Matt Milano x50 He’ll be an All-Pro this year, but not a Pro Bowler. It’s absurd.

I hope they decide Mac Jones is enough. Torturing the Pats twice a year for the next several years sounds great to me.
