I'm kinda in this camp... but only if he can handle it... only those in the building will know. Today will be a telling day for the staff with him.... is he going to rise up, or be resentful with a "shouldve played me yesterday" attitude. I should clarify the - shouldve played me mentality is ok, as long as its in a healthy competitive way, and he looks locked in... I dunno that he has the maturity to handle that benching, could def see him permanently checking out mentally and leaving him resentful about being in BUFF. Time will tell!

55 gets a pass because its first time... paying 91 what we do, and having him miss so many games is f****n brutal. Im def at the point of a mini rebuild. People are going to hate some of it. Milano needs to go. Knox - dramatic paycut or release. Trade Kincaid if you can get a good return for him. Its suuuuuucks, but paying what hes going to get on free market, with his injury history is a trap. Look to move Oliver. Next season could be a bit rough, but we could end up with a nice draft haul from those few moves. Take our medicine on dead cap..... we can still sneak in as a dangerous Wild Card. It wouldnt effect us the way youd think with them hurt as much as they are.... were already at a mini rock bottom without them on team right now, so I cant see it costing us many/any games.... hopefully get some juice from 2026 class to help offset it. Then we can REALLY open up the window in 2027.... I dont at all believe this would cause 2026 to be a season we punt off and commit to losing or anything, we'd have a similar ceiling to what we have now... but healthy, and extra talent from draft returns

Offense is absolutely missing a Beasley clone. Not a coincidence that Josh played his best ball ever with him on the team. Id argue he was more important than Diggs. Shakir is nice, he may be getting misused, but I cant see him ever being a high volume WR. Cole was good for 6-10 catches & first downs a game. We need an always open guy, and thats easier to find with a slot WR than a boundary guy. I'm dead serious, Id consider a Shakir draft day trade if we end up in range to snag one of the stud slot guys coming out. Shakir is a finishing/fine polish guy for a team, luxury #3. We need a volume guy and a boundary WR. Thats super do-able in the offseason Is this true? I dont think it is. Even if he said it out loud it will NEVERRRRR happen. That cheap owner would under no circumstances eat that cap hit, even if offered a Deshaun Watson trade package for him (not advocating for this BTW).

ABSOLUTELY NOT!! Over-promoting leads to firing... or hurt feelings if he gets interim and then is asked to step back down to OL Coach. Dont tinker with Kromer. If we do decide to blow up the staff I really hope we find a way to keep Kromer. I know OL had a rough night last night, but theyve been a major strength for years now. Losing Kromer would hurt more than any other coach on this team. Would be pretty devastating to see a new HC not keep him on staff too. Im ready for coach/gm change... blow them all up except Kromer.

This is an article about an article lol bafoonery. Also, cmon is EPA a legit stat? I get the concept... but no clue what goes into it, and then how much of it is subjective

Abaolutely nuts to me they waited so long to do this..... long enough that its probably too late to even test him out primarily in the slot. I dunno, seems like a good fit, were frustrated, I bet he is too.... try the switch earlier and maybe salvage some morale/ at least get a peak at it. Now they're in a corner about being able to let him out of time out.... and the kid isnt taking it too well. I get thats not fully on the staff, but I'd like to see a much more thorough attempt to extract some value out of a premium'ish draft pick. Hitting him with slants outta the slot, with a full head of steam seems so stupid easy of a bandaid.... he's an ass, but we didnt play it well either. No way is he here in 2026, and its not good if he is. F * * * !

General question. With those physical tickets, do they offer early payouts/settlements like the online books? Maybe a way to scan it into their website and check for value

Whoooooo ? LOL

Wait... is he not playing tonight???? Things are rough when a player that hasnt been on the field before last week, are potentially out, and my chest tightens lol

The one rule change that I can think of in "recent history" that wasnt against the defense. Now that I think about it, couldve been 15-20 year ago... but I vividly remember at one point, this wouldve been called a catch for carrying the guy out of bounds LOL Now that I think even more.... Cole is so young, this might've been the rule as far back as when he first played football hahahahahahahah Just put the WR on your hip between the hashes, like he's my 2 year old on his way to time out 🤣 please God make this happen!! WHAAAAAAAAT ?!?!?

Ehhhh, he was teetering the line in that post game interview. He didnt say anything crazy, but he danced around accountability for certain.... I also saw a guy fighting demons between wanting to tell these reporters off and trying to turn on some charm, to take some heat out of the kitchen. Id be shocked if anything gets turned around. I think a few games riding pine/barely producing will tip the scales, and he'll end up a passive malcontent at the least. I've seen guys similar to this at work before. They'll try their best, against their nature, to not explode... but the second its apparent things cant be smoothed over, is when they start screaming, slamming doors and say "F - U! I quit". Like a last ditch effort to make it lookk like their decision to leave, when in reality, they knew firing was imminent Not what im rooting for, and would prefer he performs for the team.... but gun to my head and I have to guess.... we'll get the temper tantrum quit before you can fire me kinda move

I'll play some devils advocate here (theres some sincerity too): 1. With our injuries, and s*xual kink for getting injured, the #1 seed would be more important than anything else to me 2. Even if Chiefs win, I cant see them winning enough games further to get into playoffs... and if they did, cant say they scare me this year, especially at home 3. Chiefs win - Hurts Indy - Helps Us - and meaningless win for KC hurts their draft stock 4. I'm not going to let a win vs TB Bucs where we had no defense, fool me into buying in full heartedly into believing this team is a contender 5. Coleman addition by subtraction effect, could be vastly over estimated and temporary... while I do think removing him has a positive effect, its hard to count on Shavers being the real deal, TY Johnson looking that explosive, and my God we are in trouble if our running game looks like that again *woof* Its a weird Buffalo team this year, but also a weird NFL. I dont know whats real, and Im not sure if the players know. Can they stay focused? Will they buy back into McD and staff? If/when we suffer another loss, will morale come flying of the hinges again? I'm not a doomer, if anything Ive drank way more KoolAid than DoomAid... I hope we work through this, but cautiously optimistic is about best I have to give. It's like the drunk dad that never shows up, all the sudden cleans up for a month and is fun to be around, going to AA meetings... I'm excited about the month, but in the back of my head a relapse can be around any corner, and I been hurt too many times fully buying in

Yeah youre spot on. Unfortunately with 3 big returns between 2 players, I also am highly suspicious how much of it was us versus them lol

What the heck was up with all the awesome returns yesterday? Felt like we broke off more nice returns yesterday than we have all year, or even all of last year! Suspicious that TB may have horrendous ST's, but hoping its not a fluke. Also, would be a great time to get Ray involved in running game. We need a 2nd guy to be able to put out in the run game (Ty seems more comfortable in pass game). We cant afford to grind Cook down like we have rest of year.... but we also need a 2nd guy putting out. Really hope we can build off Ray & Ty having nice days yesterday. (Also loved Hardman's deep shot down the field!). Worst case, let Hardman return Kickoff's and turn him into a punt catcher. I read he had 9 punt return fumbles in his career before yesterday!

No. Its hard to sound authentic when clearly biased, but his fingers got up under the lip of the helmet, and caused a reaction exactly the same as a face mask. At first i thought it was a bad call, but i think it was actually a super high level call.... especially once that "rule specialist" guy came on... that dudes a shill for NFL, but he said their is a provision for it in rulebook, I doubt he waws making that up... either way good call and id say the same if it was on us Yeah that one was rough. Lineman call that a "*****", its advanced lineman play, but basically, you catch a player over extending/reaching and you redirect his momentum and drive him down. Dion has been a beast with it, but he got flagged on it twice last year.... which is rough as hell, considering thats basically highlight reel lineman stuff
