Good alert. Good throw. Nice catch Knox.

Wheeeyyyy we actually had a called shot that we took. Finally.

Yea. I am done. He doesn't have the instincts to play in the NFL.

Embarrassing defense. Jesus that was terrible. That is a basic outside zone. We are so fundamentally flawed in some of our basic execution on that side of the ball.

Wow. What a way to blow a gift.

Let's goooooo Buffffffaaaaaallllllloooooooo!! PS. I am grateful for the hour earlier start 😄

I just have a hunch the Bills are gonna play really well tonight.

I remember early last year there was a presser where suddenly after being complimentary of him just randomly both McDermott and Brady this one week were critical. I said it then and I stand by it.... Keon had some off the field issue that week. Rule breaking of some kind.

Yep, suppose that's fair.

Yep, wanting rid of Baker was Stefanski, being obsessed with Watson was Haslam. And yep, Stefanksi's game and clock management are awful. I made this point yesterday when people were shouting for him as a replacement for McDermott. I do think Stefanski can coach. He is a good offensive play designer. He has also been smart enough to hire a top DC and then give him control of the defense. But I think he is really a good OC masquerading as a Head Coach.

I'm not sure misjudging traffic caused by normal business is a legit excuse, but unexpected traffic such as that caused by a major accident is legit.

This is the best offense they have had in a number of years. Once Rice is back especially. Hollywood, Worthy, Rice, JuJu and Thornton is their best wide receiving corps of the Mahomes era, even if it isn't quite like having prime age elite Hill and Kelce as they did 4 or 5 years ago.

As Chan Gailey once said: "plays are more fun than fundamentals, but fundamentals are more important than plays." Miami is a team that has been way too focussed on the Xs and Os and not on the details and culture that foster winning football.

It is what DaCosta does. He takes the best player available in round one regardless of positional value. If you are mad at Starks you have to be mad at Linderbaum and Hamilton too. Otherwise it is a definite example of Monday Morning Quarterbacking.

Yea the Ravens are toast. They lost all thwir best guys pretty much inside 3 games. Any NFL team in that position is toast. But it is fair to say their roster is not built for depth.

Not when you are against the cap. Its all choices.

Yea I think Maye is good. The Pats are not ready to contend for the division this year. And I'd still make the Bills favourites in Gillette. But they are on the way. Another good offseason they are a proper contender.

My other half only allowed me to watch the final 4 minutes. Thank heavens.

Because the coach is absolutely clueless.

They 100% should have tried the kick. They should have run Hall on 3rd down and kicked.

Yea that was NOT a good throw. @Gugny was right. He should be 1 and done. Hopeless beyond belief.

I don't think him being "bigger" has anything to do with the injuries. I think that IS too negative to try and draw conclusions. It is totally fair though to say that LaPorta has been more productive and would not have cost them a trade up pick.

Meh. Settle was pretty rubbish in Houston last year. He graded out terribly - especially in run defense - and while he did get 5 sacks that was clean up duty playing between two top tier edge guys. I think this is more just a guy having a career year so far this year. That happens from time to time where a guy who is career average just has a year where everything clicks.

I was a fan of both guys coming out. Same class I think (one we took Groot in)?

Fans should absolutely analyse parts of the team that are and are not looking good. I think that is slightly different than catastrophising doom and there has been an element of that the past few days. Just the same as the team wasn't bound for the Superbowl at 4-0 the sky is also not falling at 4-1. What is the most frustrating element of this season for me so far is the two things that were major weaknesses on last year's roster - the secondary (save for Benford last year and right now he is not playing well) and the outside receivers - are exactly the same this year. They get a bit of a mulligan on the secondary with regards to their first round pick being hurt, however.... the two worst position groups on last year's roster - safety and receiver were largely ignored. I don't think we were ever losing to the Saints or Dolphins personally, they just weren't talented enough to make the Bills pay for sleepwalking through those games at different points. The Patriots are a better team than both of them though. They will be a playoff contender - an 8 to 10 win team.... and they were talented enough to make an underwhelming Bills team that made major mistakes pay. Atlanta this week are in a similar bracket for me. A borderline playoff type team who if the Bills don't play well and execute in key moments can catch them out. Let's hope the performance is better.
