We suck...just less than all of the other teams.

on designed runs Josh is still lethal but Miami did hold his scrambles well. I can only remember 1 designed run from the Mia game that went for ~10 yards. I think we will see more against Cincy.

He absolutely could have and should have come back to the ball. It was a tight throw for sure, but I didnt see any clearly better options on the throw. But he should have worked back to Josh.

Ravens can also get home with 4, Im not sure our D-line can do that consistently with their O-line banged up.

Its possible (although nobody knows for sure) that Dorsey told Josh "if you see Cover 0 go deep". Maybe unlikely but possible.

A lot of it is mis-remembering the last few games + playoff games as the season. The offense is better or as good this year in almost every metric. It looks different but its the same. Many ups and downs. I tend to think its Josh and his 2020 season is more of the abnormal, these last two are normal. But Im also fine with that because we win a lot.

I like EPA/play because it is agnostic of how you move the ball, just that it gets moved.

I believe they also went: Lost in AFC Champ Game, Lost in AFC Divisional Round in the two years preceding their first SB appearance.

McK was not at practice today.

yes also this. I only mentioned the secondary because it was more about Hill and Waddle.

I believe he is talking about what should be *Miami's* gameplan. Not Buffalo

The first game was unique in that it was Hyde's first game out, Poyer was out, and Jackson was out.

He was limited.

Massive disparity in team health on Wednesday

Sometimes these random rumors are correct though...like with Beasley.

*IF* this it Hyde news the timeline does matchup with what he said in a recent BN article (https://buffalonews.com/sports/ryan-ohalloran-could-bills-safety-micah-hyde-return-in-postseason-after-neck-surgery/article_0be8e698-85ef-11ed-8586-0fb296488d85.html) This article was posted exactly two weeks ago. My guess would be that he gets off of IR this week and then would play in the divisional round. Again, *IF*

Literally two weeks ago to the day a BN article had quotes from Hyde saying something along the lines of "We will see what they say in two weeks"

Mostert does have a broken hand so its not confirmed he will be playing.

Davis will be out there and needs to be, but I wouldnt mind limiting snaps for McK and having Brown-Beasley more.

They may have to leave McK inactive and elevate Brown and Beasley. McK is caught inbetween. Not a true slot guy, not a burner, not big enough to block like Davis.

Concussions arent something you can power through. A week makes a difference.

They really screwed up by not doing a coin flip for the Cinn-Buff result. That would have at least given the Bengals their chance at 1, the Ravens their chance at the North. We controlled our own destiny and now we rely on the Raiders. I would rather take my chance with a coin flip then depend on a Raiders win. The game was mostly a pickem anyway (we were favored going into it, they were up 7-3 but we both moved the ball effectively on our possessions).

FWIW I also have been told by a source who knows someone with the bills about the writing a word thing.

I agree, we have zero idea of where along the progress bar he is right now. Truthfully nobody even knows for sure if he had commotio cordis. If it was CC, and they followed the procedure of reducing body temperature and ventilating for a period of time they *should have* started the body warming process and working him off of a vent yesterday. At that time is when you would learn whether he can breath on his own or not. The fact that we didnt hear anything besides (progress) yesterday worries me. But... The caveat is that WE HAVE NO IDEA what is going on in the hospital and all of these little leaks are becoming unhelpful.
