Any word on Benford getting back for this one? I’m assuming no, but it would be nice to have our full complement of CBs to slow down their stud receivers.
I think he just got back to practice. Wouldn’t count on him tonight. But Elam has looked decent and I think he will be useful tonight.-

Just watching a segment on ESPN sports center just now and they were talking about the 3 way race for #1 AFC seed. It was 70% KC, Cincy 25% and Buffalo 5% as far as discussion. The media is foaming at the mouth for KC. Can’t wait for this time tomorrow night to watch them all backpedal.
Yeah sheesh. Almost every national media outlet is picking the Bengals. I just read an article on the Athletic the other day about the 1 seed and the question they asked the panel about the #1 seed was only Chiefs & Bengals discussion. I know Coach is gonna get these guys motivated to make a statement tomorrow night.-

What was the wind like at the time? We know if was snowing but I don’t think the wind was as bad.

The story is more interesting when the best player ever remains apart of it. Nobody wants to see the Panthers in a playoff game.
The Panthers just kicked the ***** out of the Lions team everyone has been gushing over. Sam Darnold can implode at any time but damn their run game is good and I think there is no question they are the more fun, scrappier team. I’m rooting for them. -

I hope so. Really wanted to see the Panthers get in
The Panthers play the Bucs next week and the Saints after. If they win out they win the division. I think it’ll happen.-

Dolphins will keep Tua for at least another year. Not so sure about Jones. He’s looked really bad without a top notch running game, which they had last year but not this year. I could see them moving on this off season.
Is it me or is the run game the only thing that’s kind of working? Stevenson is their only playmaker (tho he does fumble at bad times). -

Wow is all I can say:
This is a joke page. The Dolphins did not even wear white today.-

How do we always seem to have to endure a QBs best game? We get zero meltdowns it seems. From Mahomes, Tua & Cousins. I can’t think of us forcing a good QB into a bad game. Hope that changes vs Burrow.
My theory, and I mean this as much of a positive as I do a negative, is that the Bills like to play ball the way they want to play. They don’t really like to get creative until they have to. And of course this year we have the injury bug. And again, for as much as they can be frustrating every week is a battle and we are still #1 in the AFC and have the #1 point differential in the NFL. This is as much a credit to the defense as it is the offense.-

Lol. If they had drafted Herbert, Flores would still be the head coach.
It’s possible! I did think Flores was doing a decent job. McDaniel, I think, has a good football mind but it’ll be interesting to see how they finish the season and into next season. -

Jaire Alexander is one of those dudes you hate him if he isn't on your team but you'd love him on your team lol
Yeah he definitely got under Stef’s skin. I also kind of have this theory that the back and forth led to Josh trying to target him and that’s partly why he threw at least one of those picks. Like he was forcing throws and it didn’t work out. You know Josh likes to do that kind of stuff but sometimes the other player gets the better of him. -
To think the Packers D played them better than us. Sheesh.

Holy crap what even was that!?

Tough call there. I get going for 3 and forcing them to score a TD. At the same time they could have ran a play and wasted the 2 minute warning even if they turned it over.

That might be one of the worst comps possible. Foster = all speed no hands. Hodgins catches everything. He was miscast with the Bills, he has actually kind of mutant short-area quickness but not long speed, he should have been developed as a big slot receiver, a big first down machine.
Yeah I kind of see him like a Thielen type. Sneaky good, sure handed, technician-type. But again he is lanky which is a boost.
Early injury had to have stunted his growth here. Daboll & Schoen obviously liked his upside and we had to have known they were a potential sniper on waivers. But they have had even worse injury luck than us at the receiver position. Plus a potential malcontent with Toney? Anyway these things happen.

He’s not excelling at all. He has one game over 50 yards receiving and yes he has a couple of touchdowns now. As others have said he is a poor man’s version of what Robert Foster did (which isn’t saying much)
Hodgins isn’t a speed guy. Who is comparing him to Foster?He might be JAG when it’s all said and done but his usage is trending up and he looks pretty good from what I’ve seen. He’s got some extra length that our guys don’t have too.

The worst part is he hasn't even really done this lately. The last tough play he made was in week 5 against the Steelers. Since then every play he's made has been an easy catch delivered right into his hands without a defender contesting him. His rookie year he was making amazing sideline catches in critical moments in a playoff game. Yesterday he flubbed his one opportunity to make a difficult sideline catch. In a year when we needed him to step up in a bigger role he has instead regressed. It's the biggest disappointment of the season IMO.
Wonder if that ankle is nagging but those hands are a different story. He just doesn’t look like the same player this year.

I mean just go back to the Miami game for a reference point. That game went right down to the wire. Bills were at home and conditions slowed down the likes of Waddle and Hill. The Dolphins WR dropped an easy TD pass that clearly would have changed the complexion of the game. According Dolphin fans the refs were not favorable in their calls. Point being the Dolphins clearly didn't play their A game. They clearly had the edge on both sides in the lines. The Dolphins could have easily won this game. I'm sure Dolphins fans feel like they should have won the game. Like they let one slip away. The Bills were very fortunate to win the game.
Every week in the NFL is tough. So many advanced metrics say we are a really good team and even though we have slumped a little mid-season (as we did last season) we are still 12-3 with a difficult SOS and the #1 point differential in the NFL.-

More likely we re-sign Singletary to a team-friendly deal than we pursue Jacobs after the season he has had. Not to mention Cook looks better and better as the season progresses.

I think this year they planned on him being the 1st replacement for Diggs/Davis. It just so happens that he has gotten injured often this season.
Kumerow was first up when Davis was injured. Not Crowder, Hodgins, or Shakir. Kumerow actually lead the Bills WRs in snaps week 2 when Davis was out.
So yeah they had big plans for him I believe. He just couldn’t stay healthy.
Not sure they had “big plans” but they definitely expected to utilize him. I also think they were expecting to keep Hodgins as a squad guy but Daboll’s familiarity and the Giants receiver issues came at the wrong time for us. We probably would have promoted him after Kumerow went on IR. But I could be messing up the timeline here. -

According to the pool report from the ref, Stevenson was never wrapped up and controlled on the initial stop and that’s why they didn’t blow the whistle.
Debatable, but if you watch they play again it does have some merit. Stevenson blasts into the pile, gets stopped, then kind of jump backs and tries to advance again before getting buried and stripped.
Yeah I’m OK with them letting the play go there from what I saw on the broadcast.3 minutes ago, dave mcbride said:I saw that comment, which I thought was classic CYA. He was literally pushed back 3 yards! The whistle is always blown when that happens regardless of whether a guy’s legs are still churning.
IDK I’ve seen plays where a guy gets pushed back but he manages to break free and get yards. I feel like there’s merit to the call here especially with how fast it happened. -

I missed the 4th quarter. What was the deal with the TD pass with a minute left? Were they running it up?
Probably wanted Josh to get another for the stat sheet. -

Josh took himself out of the MVP race this game. He'd been playing quite well recently, but he was coming from behind and he's out now.
Wonder if he is trying too hard because he wanted to win it. -

I have not seen any breakdowns, were the Bears in heavy shell coverage and inviting the Bills to run? Because it seems like a normally terrible secondary did a good job limiting Josh with help from the wind while the running game hadn't looked that dominant any time in decent memory.
I think Singletary was close to 10 yards a carry? I know the Bears Dline isn't good, but this seems purposeful
They both were until the end. Still averaged about 9 per after all! This was definitely one of those games where running the ball was the thing to do. Blacks were blowing through massive holes and ripping chunks almost every time. It was did frustrating that Dorsey kept calling passes and Allen kept forcing big throws. It’s like they are trying to assert Josh as MVP or something? This was the opposite of that patriots game last year where the weather was horrible but this time we could run the ball at will and we absolutely should have.I am curious to see the all 22 regarding the looks we got from the bears D.
Still, we ended up with a blowout win in the road like we should have even if it was weird.

Correct. He is still on IR.
