Great throw tierod. Not even being able to put that sideline ball in bounds is JV.

Titans have to beat the Jags to get in. They could win or lose this week and assuming we lose to NE it won't matter for them as long as they win next week. If they beat them then we are fighting it out with Ravens or Chargers for the last spot. If Ravens beat Cinci they are in.
So basically if Ravens or Titans lose next week that opens the door for either us or Chargers. So we want Chargers to lose today so then it's just us who can sneak in!
You are right, Jags won't have anything to play for, but they would probably want to win to keep a division rival out. Having played them twice and destroying them the first time, the Titans have the most knowledge about how to beat them. Also, Marrone doesn't seem like the type of coach that would rest players. Jags should be favored in that one so that is probably our best chance to sneak in
Jags will still be playing for the #2 seed.

Gotta be the Panthers. Defense didn't give up a touchdown. Our offense couldn't score more than 3 points. Pathetic.

That was was an epic call out. Amazing.

Clearly intentional. Draws his arm back to punch, makes fist, throws a straight jab into TT's face and looks toward McCoy to sell it as unintentional. Frustration with the run-pass option.
This was the play where he jumped offsides. He knew he had jumped and the play was going to be dead. I don't think it was frustration with the play as much as he knew he didn't really need to tackle McCoy because the play was dead anyways. So he just made a half assed effort to tackle him but kept one arm free for the punch.

Pretty slick on his part, though.
That's how he does it. He is the master of hiding subtle cheap shots from the ref.

Tre is awesome. We definitely hit on this pick. Not only a great player, but he seems to have a great, positive attitude that's infectious for the defense. Hopefully no sophmore slump on the guy like Darby.

Honestly, the defense played pretty well when we played the Pats a few weeks ago. They limited Brady and kept him from having a big game. While Gronk had numerous catches and piled up yardage last time, he was not a back-breaker. The problem in that game was the 3-and-out offense. If the D plays well again, and the Bills' offense can be as productive as it was in the first half against Miami yesterday, an upset victory is not out of the question.
It's a long shot, but I agree there's a chance. I think they key is the offense. Brady and Gronk are going to score. Offense has to put drives together that end in 7 early, just like they did this week.

I agree with that Murphy's homerism is over the top and hurts his credibility. He is clear in his calls for the play by play, but I really don't enjoy listening to him very much. His excitement and attempts at having a unique personality while calling the game seem very forced to me. There's a lot of announcers out there who make the game fun to listen to/do it better IMO.

That was 100% intentional. He already knew the play was dead and he was offsides, so he didn't need to actually try to tackle McCoy. Saw a good chance to put a shot on Taylor that he might be able to get away with. It's how he does and who he is.

What aspects of the team do you feel that the announcers did a good job doing their homework on?
It was nothing remarkable, but in my opinion she demonstrated good knowledge of things that have happened with the team this year with the trades and the front office, the ups and downs with Taylor, how good Tre White has been... things of that nature. Again, not insight that I was blown away with, but I've certainly listened to many Bills games where I was positive the play by play and/or color guy hadn't watched a game all year, hadn't bothered to read whatever memo they're handed the week before the game, and offered just completely wrong takes on various things about the Bills. I didn't get that from Mowins' commentary.
I will say, as some others have mentioned, she does have a little bit of that Marv/Kenny Albert type inflection which I don't really care for. To me, she's not as annoying as those two, but I see where folks are coming from in terms of personal annunciation taste.

Well, they BOTH made my ears bleed. Does that make it ok? Shesh you all thinking people attack other women because she is a woman, men are attacking her because she sounds like an ex-wife, yada, yada. How about they BOTH SUCKED!? Not everything is policial, sexist, misandrist, misogynist, racist, or whatever other -ist or -ism you want to attach to a subject. Sometimes, black, white, pink or green, male, female or other - someone(s) simply does not do a good job. Period.
I actually thought Jay Freely was worse, but so many mistakes by Beth Mowins. So, so, SO many mistakes. The announcers get worse and worse every year it seems.Even though you used a very compelling combination of bold and caps, I don't agree that she made so, so, so many mistakes. She accidentally called Taylor McCoy once or twice. That was the only thing I caught. Announcers do things like that all the time. Happens in almost every single game.
I was watching the CBS post game, and Bill Cowher made the same mistake (accidentally calling the quarterback the receivers' name) while doing the recap of a game. Can't remember who followed Cowher (Boomer or someone), but they totally missed their queue and botched the whole highlight clip. Instead of getting things back on track, everyone in the studio started yelling at once incoherently for about 10 seconds.
My point is that it happens all the time to most announcers. I thought Mowins was exceptionally knowledgeable about the Bills and really did a good job talking about aspects of the team that most announcers don't care enough about to do their homework on.

They should. Especially if he helps us end the drought. He's THE best player we've had during the drought. Freddy was pretty damn good, but he's no Shady.
I'm pretty much in agreement with this. There have been some other all time great players who've been Bills during the drought, but they walked on us or were traded when contract time came around. Peters and Marshawn are the ones that come to mind.

Way too early to label him a bust. He's definitely had some struggles, but he's also made some nice plays. If he's still dropping this many passes after 2 full NFL seasons, it will start to look more like a bust.

They will sweep this one. I'm not sure how they have won 6 games this season. They were the worst coached team we have played. The Jets are doing far more with far less.
I agree that they are likely to not show up in week 17 and we should beat them, but you never know. They just may have some pride to close out the season. They are a talented team when they want to be. They were moving the ball at will on the ground and through the air for most of the first half vs us, but after their long drives stalled in the red zone for FGs, they seemed to kind of give up. And Cutler just sucked after the first few drives.
They're a talented team when they want to play though. It depends on which team shows up. But yes, I agree that Gase is a terrible HC.

I thought she was pretty good. She seemed knowledgeable about the Bills which was better than most play by play announcers that cover the team. She had some good insights.

I missed that story. Hopefully they got a video of that. No point in doing something stupid if you don't get in on video for the world to see.
Ask and you shall receive...

My prediction is that with each stunt the bar gets set higher until someone is injured badly or dies. Then comes the crack down.
Im not against it though. I find that stuff great entertainment.
Someone was badly injured last year. Some big fat guy in a wrestling mask if I recall. He made the most unathletic jump in the history of jumps off a van with his legs fully extended and completely straight/locked. When his foot went through the table and hit the ground, I’m pretty sure his femur went straight up through his knee.

I'm not willing to chalk it up as a loss like some of the betas around here.
You can concede defeat before hand, I refuse to.
Lol. That a boy. I’m glad you will be bringing it when you suit up to play next weekend.

The only bad news is we will probably get "good cutler " in a couple weeks
Don’t think Cutler was into playing in cold weather today. Good cutler may show up in south Florida in week 17. Or he may already be completely checked out on his way to retirement and not care.

#27 Might be my next jersey!

You’d get something similar to Ragland i would imagine. Shaq is a solid player. I know that’s uninspiring for a 1st round pick but he’s good against the run and will be like an 8 sack guy. He’s Ryan Denney IMO.
I'm not really seeing how he's an 8 sack guy. From everything I've seen of his pass rush, it looks pretty awful. He gets swallowed up by the tackle and has no good pass rush move to get off a block. On the run front, I've noticed him catching the block quite a few times and getting knocked back. Just not really seeing what everyone else seems to be seeing with this guy.

Peterman doesn’t have a chance either, receivers can’t get separation or make a contested catch
At least he's exposing them.

DC Bills Bar..Exiles or Grand Central

Mackey’s is the Bills Backers bar, but it’s closed today for some reason. Grand Central is your best bet in the district.
