Bills aren't winning 3 playoff games to get to the SB. This game just slammed the door shut on the Bills SB dreams for this year. Not because we can't beat KC, but because the road is too long.
Because teams don't ever win 3 playoff games to get to the Super Bowl? I mean the last 2 teams in the SB did just that but carry on.

Does this mean anything about brain damage? I know theres major concerns there too
I would imagine this means no brain damage. They had a doctor on First Take, and they have said they would only use that term if the patient could move all their extrematies and was able to understand commands.

Does the latest update make them more optimistic
I would say so, nuerologically intact means there is no damage to the nerves or vervous system that would otherwise cause a person not to be able to function in a neurological sense, like impaired movement or impaired thought process. It's a medical term, I believe.

I think the unique thing in this situation is the trauma associated with watching your teammate/friend need to be resuscitated with you standing there.
If Damar had been in a serious accident away from the field, players would still be grieving, but it wouldn’t be as traumatic because they didn’t witness it. First responders, military, etc. are prepared to see traumatic life or death events… football players really aren’t.
At some point they will “get on with it” but right now they have a lot to work through.
Yea this is it.
I don't think anyone is saying, "pause your life until we know anything about Damar" but the reality is many of the players just witnessed somethin they may have neer seen before. They aren't prepared for it. This is about how they are handling things metally and are they in a good place to focus and move on with there jobs. I'm sure they will be able, it just isn't a switch for some people and takes a bit of time.

Just as an aside, I'm not sure listing where they played college ball is being 'from' a cold weather state. That's just where they played college FB.
- Gilliam was born and raised in Ohio and played his college ball at Toledo, not sure where you got Florida from. So has played in the the cold.
- John Brown grew up in Florida, played college football at Pittsburg State, in Kansas. Grew up warm, played in cold.
I'm not sure it matters all that much otherwise warm weather teams would always lose to cold weather teams. Colin Kapernick, raised in warm climate, went to Lambeau when it was like -10 and beat the Packers.

The importance of those routes is they are usual timing routes that Tua is throwing into. Those are his bread and butter.
They need to get hands on the receivers at the line to screw up the timing but will ultimately play off of them.
Yup and as soon as the CB throws off the timing, Tua is lost. I still think Tua is bad post snap at reading coverages and leverage. He throws the ball quick where McDaniel tells him too.

The Bills need to shut down the vertical in routes to middle of the field... that is where Tua likes going and that's how the Chargers/49ers defended against him. Make him throw the vertical out routes. Waddle and Hill want to get vertical, to the middle the Bills better be game planning to take that away.

Okay. I think the 4 I listed were definitely in the category of a "drop". I wonder what the 5th credited drop was. Rather than, got fingers on a pass didn't reel in.
I think Knox had 2?
There was one early on over the middle. where it went through his hands, and I remember because he then looked like his gloves were wet and they showed him trying to dry them off in his pants.Then had that one out in the flat that hit him in the chest.
Or am I misremembering?

They played a lot of soft man coverage against the Jets. Tre is good not great when in man, he excels in zone. Saying that, for it being man most of the day, I thought he did well.
Watching the Chargers play press man agains the Dolphins and shutting them down, I think we will see more of the same this coming weekend.

Everyone is missing my point which seems so apparent.
Mike White coming back in to play kept the Jets players hopes up and they kept the game close enough to have a chance
right to the end.
If he didn't come back in does anyone think Flacco would have done that?
He came back and led the Jets offense to 3 points.He then did nothing with a 2 min drill and a timeout. His last 3 passes were incomplete.
I’m sure Joe Flacco could have done that.
Was it gutsy he came back after taking those shots? Sure. Did he make a couple nice throws? Sure. He’s also responsible for a Jets offense that scored 10 points and hasn’t thrown a TD in 2 weeks.

I thought he was dropping dines?
So many dimes were dropped they scored 10 points? -

Dropping dimes....🤣🤣🤣🤣
Honestly, he’s embarrassing himself. He was terrific as well? So terrific he couldn’t lead a 2 min drive with 3 TO. In fact his last 3 passes were incompletions.Dropping dimes.

Here's what I saw: Mike White having plenty of time and dropping dimes on WRs who didn't have trouble catching the ball.
Embarrassing again.The guy literally left the game with rib injuries. Dropping dimes? How did that last series go for the Jets?
Is that on Josh that his WRs can’t catch??
My man, Mike White was no where near what Josh Allen is supposed to be.-

Who made more, better throws today?
Josh Allen. Just stop, Mike White literally made 1 maybe 2 impressive throws.Whose pass catches caught the ball more? The Jets.
Thats literally the difference. Josh made some really really good throws and unfortunately his pass catchers dropped the ball.
Josh also had some nice runs, Mike White had none.
Honestly, that post is embarrassing.

The Jets deserved to win that game. Mike White looked like what Josh Allen is supposed to be. Our O-line is garbage. McKenzie, Davis, Knox dropping balls. Defense and special teams won the game.
What? I mean WHAT?-

At least four. The passing Game was very erratic
McKenzie had 4 alone. I think Knox had 2, and that’s not counting the pass on that last drive, which was a good play by Mosley. Singletary dropped one that probably would have taken away the safety, as it would have moved the ball out and given a 3rd and short.-

The reason this game was remotely close is that the Jets skill position players caught every pass including a few tough catches, while our skill position players flubbed a lot of easy catches and had zero tough catches. That single issue made the offense look a worse than it really was. It's hard to move the ball against a really good defense when you keep shooting yourself in the foot.
Yup, McKenzie had 4 dropped passes by my count and Knox had 2. Add the Singletary drop on 2nd down, that probably would have saved the safety and this game was closer than it needed to be.That was A LOT of sloppy football by the Bills so I’ll take the win. I don’t love coming off another “bye” the Bills didn’t look sharp. Kudos to the defense for stepping up.

There is no season ending IR anymore (at last not not right away). 4 game minimum, and then after that the player can return if healthy.
This is correct. When they return to practice, they have a 4 week window to be added to the active roster. If they don't get added to the roster in that 4 week window, then it's season ending and they can't come back.

I'm calling my shot, he plays vs Detroit. Book it.

They showed they can run against Cleveland, one of the worst run Ds in the NFL. They got away from the run against the Jets because it was going nowhere. I have more sympathy with the argument that they abandoned the run too early against the Vikings. The run game actually worked really nicely in the 1st half of that game and sure, the Vikes made adjustments at halftime, but ultimately it felt like we never made any concerted effort to get it going second half after they stuffed a couple.
Yea the Vikings adjusted. They were using the CBs to set the edge in the 1st half and then switched to LBs covering the edge and practically invited on runs up the middle. Watching the Bills attempt to run up the middle against a soft box in the 2nd half, and this isn't exagerating, was pathetic. Now, maybe it was the design of the runs up the middle and running out of the shot gun but it was awful against those light boxes.
I'm just not convienced the Bills can effectively run the ball, even with recent "success" against the worst run defense in the league.

I get that they changed the rules to 4 weeks. But why even that? This year across the league has shown that there has to be more flex on injuries.I suppose it's for player safety? It's something the league bargained with the NFLPA, so maybe they said if it's long enough to keep someone out, might as well be for a period of time they can recover.

Because I don’t see the Bills winning out under any circumstance.
Ok, that sounds like a you thing... they can still lose 1 game and Miami could take the #1 seed. The Chiefs don't need multiple loses to lose that seed, as you stated.

I don’t even understand why we have these absurd IR rules. Why can’t they just put guys on “IR” on a weekly basis and use that roster spot, and then activate them if/when healthy?
They can... there is no designation for season-ending IR. The limits are only 8 players can come back from IR. Also, it's a minimum of 4 weeks on IR and once the player starts practicing must be activated within 4 weeks. The only time it goes to season ending is if they come back and in that 4 week window of activation, they have a set back and can't make it back... then it's season ending.
I believe that's the rules.

Doesn’t even matter, because this Chiefs team would need multiple losses for the one seed to shake free. I just don’t see multiple losses happening. The Bills, on the other hand, I see a couple more losses. The one seed is a pipe dream
The Chiefs literally need 1 loss, to an AFC opponent and they lose the 1 seed. Dunno where you are getting multiple loses.
