I hate to say it but Lamar is unreal

Ya good question . I think it really depends on the team/coordinator Like the browns last week sold out to stop the run against Henry. But ravens tonight look like they are playing a lot of 2 high against Detroit

1. Ya Bosas snap count was way too high IMO 2. Ya Rousseau is dealing with an apparent bone bruise in his leg/knee 3. Deone walkers snap count was low as apparently he was out of alignment on the first couple drives, so it looks like they sat him for a bit

Ya that's pretty much spot on. Like you said, if you don't want a 30 million dollar receiver that's a diva , fine I can get that . But should have thrown a day 2 pick at WR in my opinion or double dipped in 2024. Or like you said, Horton. Looked pretty damn good yesterday for Seattle

Ya it's hard to dispute that. But the overall root of what I'm saying is this is the offence McDermott/Beane wants. He doesn't want a 30 million dollar receiver and to throw it 40 times a game. He wants to play clock control, limit mistakes and grind you out . Which I personally disagree with that philosophy, when Josh Allen is your QB

Exactly where I'm at. Everyone was stressed about the INTs, but it didn't really bother me as his yards and TDs more than enough made up for it. And come playoff time, he always cleaned the INTs when it mattered most.

I'm not a gambler and I would never bet against my favourite team And no I won't go to the chiefs board and route for them since I'm a diehard bills fan. I'm sorry my facts of them beating us in the last 4 playoff games and them going to the last 3 super bowls offend you.

Haha ok. Why don't we review last years message board saying the chiefs are done, yet they made it to the Super Bowl. Same in 2023 when they lost to the raiders in that Christmas game lol

It's got a tyreek hill trade written all over it

100 percent. Anyone who thinks the chiefs are in trouble are in denial. They are still the team to beat in the afc until proven otherwise

Both cook and Nabers down with cook being the more serious one being hurt. Collingsworth: "That is a big issue for the New York giants "😂

For sure, I knew that. I just meant to say before this game started, Jameis probably gave them the best chance to win. But I can't fault Daboll for starting Russ I guess since he came off a huge game

Agreed that Russ sucks, but don't know if putting in Dart against a Spags defence is the answer for his first nfl game. Realistically , Jameis probably gives them the best chance to win

I got to say. That was an unreal play by Mahomes. Obviously horrible play to do that to begin with, but that awareness and instincts were insane

Andrew Thomas is the new Jason Peters for Collingsworth

So you're saying- You would rather have last years playoff offence compared to 2021 playoff offence? Please tell me you actually don't mean that. Yes by far the biggest problem in the playoffs is the defence . No denying that. But 2021 playoffs- New England perfect wild card game/13 seconds game, is absolutely peak bills offence in the McDermott era and there really shouldn't even be a debate about that

How many blocked kicks have there been today? This is insane

So you're going to look at 27 points and just conclude the offence was good? Defence didn't force 3 turnovers to help them on the plus side of the field to set up those points right? lol.. The peak bills ceiling to me for offence was 2021. And it was more pass happy. They had the chiefs beat in arrowhead with 36 points until the defensive and coaching meltdown. For some reason the bills wanted to change to more ball control , limit mistakes and to run the ball more with heavy sets. Where in reality if the defence was even competent, they would have at least 1 Super Bowl from the Daboll years Now- I am not saying that they should go full 2021 and just pass it 40 times a game as I do think it's good to have a bit more balance. But I feel like the bills made too dramatic of a shift. It’s like a pitcher who throws 100mph who can't be hit- But instead of adding a change up to complement the fastball, they tell him to to throw 90mph and just focus on location. Doesn't make sense to me

It was actually the full game outside of the 1st drive. And ya I'm going to mostly judge them what they do in the playoffs, not the regular season. The "floor" will always be higher with the power game approach. It's the "ceiling" I'm worried about , and we saw the limitations first hand in the playoffs last year I was referring to the playoff game last year against them

Agreed that the problem against the chiefs wasn't the offence. But against Baltimore it was, as it took 3 turnovers and huge dropped passes by Baltimore to win by 2 points . The bills offence could not move the ball, especially in the 2nd half

The ravens beat themselves. I think even if you ask McDermott he would admit that. Bills offence was awful that night

Yep and I personally disagree with the overall philosophy. Trying to be a power run team while minimizing risk wouldn't be the path I would take when a unicorn like Josh Allen is your QB Is your "floor" going to be a lot better? Absolutely as you're not going to have multi turnover games that cost you. But the ceiling is also going to be limited. We saw it in last years playoffs, especially against Baltimore

Maybe. But since late 2023, this is basically what the passing game has looked like.

I don't want the bills to "chuck " the ball downfield as I understand teams play a lot of cover 2 and 4 against the bills. But ya I do want more intermediate passing. Just because a team plays cover 2, doesn't mean you aren't allowed to throw the ball past the line of scrimmage lol. Theres the honey hole between the safety and corner (see the Dalton Kincaid TD), middle of the field is also open because of the 2 split safety.

Today I just learned that Zay jones is still in the NFL
