for an injury he’s been medically cleared on?You can make something up and put him on IR or even put him back on IR for the knee. He really isn’t contributing and is a liability on the field. At this point in the season I don’t see him helping us at all. Might as well get someone out there who can help us

They should IR him at this point

By definition, the CPOY Award is given to a player who "shows perseverance in overcoming adversity, in the form of not being in the NFL the previous year, a severe injury, or simply poor performance."

I'm not being sarcastic but sincere here: is Damar's return to the game a demonstration of his perseverance? Or is it simply a medical science miracle? How much of him being here and where he is performing at (backup player) a sign of his perseverance rather than great science?
I personally don't know. He's alive, and on a pro team but he has no performance to show for, at least at the game level. Is that enough? I don't know but I can see why people think it should be given to a player who is not only back but who has performed at an unexpectedly high level this year.
Is making the roster as a backup a sign of amazing personal perseverance when that player almost died?
Me, personally, it's a wonderful story, but I might be inclined to give it to a player who has performed at a great level in games. I know people will disagree.
I think it’s the courage to go back out on the football field knowing what happened to you. Never know if it could happen again

Another interesting aspect of this game is last time we played them we were what 2-3 weeks out from losing Tre White, Matt Milano and Daquan Jones. The defense has patched it's holes as best it can might get Jones back and is used to having to scheme with what we have.
Agree. Our defense was floundering based on the recency of those three huge losses. We’ve definitely stabilized the boat, so to speak.
However, patriots have definitely improved as well. And I think Bill wants to really rub it into our faces this probably being the last time he faces the bills

I think early in his career everyone agreed that Russell was on course to be a HOFer. I think at this point it’s safe to say his prospects are cooked outside of some late success, a la Kurt Warner (who IMO should not be a HOFer)

He’s as good as gone. Had his best year as a pro, with a bunch of splash plays, in a contract year.
He’s Shaq Lawson 2.0. Will get overpaid somewhere, bounce around, and get brought back to Buffalo cheap in 3-4 years.
Agree. The splash plays probably aren’t repeatable next year. Not something you can count on. We need to let him walk.

So if Hamilton is out that’s a BFD
Is he all-pro caliber? Not really familiar with Baltimore

Lamar is impressive, despite his flaws.
Purdy is lost.
Problem with the niners are they keep rushing their d ends way up field, allowing Lamar to escape the pocket and use either his legs to run or create new passing lanes.
I feel Like whenever we play Baltimore our d ends are pretty disciplined setting the edge, not getting too far upfield and forcing Lamar to beat us from the pocket. Niners should have used that gameplan

Baltimore defense looking legit.

That’s a cut block if I’ve ever seen one

Nick Wright will still fondle Patricia and come up with a way to critique Josh (which may be fair)

Horrible tackling

That looked like an INT. Am I missing something?

Aidan O’Connell sucks. Noodle arm and bad awareness in the pocket

Owners already said he is coming back next year. I mean I guess they can change their minds but...
This Aaron rodgers thing is gonna set the jets back like 5 years. All the wasted capital and time spent trying to make this happen. It doesn’t help rodgers got hurt but who cares, it’s the jets

Saleh is probably gone if they lose this game
Commanders got lucky that wasn’t DPI

Last night wasn’t a dumb pick. It was underthrown. Something some of us have noticed for a long time now. Don’t get me wrong. Josh is great. He’s got the best and baddest arm in the league. But he will under throw wide open receivers on should be TDs. Not sure what it is with him. Maybe he’s throwing off footing. Maybe he’s on the run and can’t plant his feet. Maybe he’s being hurried and throwing off a back foot. Maybe he doesn’t have time and using all arm. Maybe he’s throwing it cross body 40+ yards and across the field. It doesn’t matter. It happens and it’s looks bad when he does it.
The only thing I can think of is maybe it’s his mindset that if he overthrows a ball it’s not playable. But if it’s underthrown a WR can still make a play or maybe get a DPI.

If the call on Morse for holding is correct then there should be 20 times more holding calls than there are. That was a terrible call based on every game I've seen over the past few years. It also basically prevented a scoring drive which would have put the game away.
It happened twice as well. Pretty much the exact same scenario. Shouldn’t have been called either time.

After the first drive (on script) where the defense gave up 90 yards but stiffened it gave up 183 yards at an average of 16 per Chargers drive.
The narrative that the defense was the problem last night is insane the issues were Allen, Harty and Cook needlessly giving the ball away.
Did he? The Oline had one disaster drive and Cook but the ball on the ground. But the other three Bills drives that failed were two Josh Allen misses to wide open guys on 3rd down and then a stupid pick he didn't need to throw.
Equally the play he makes for our first touchdown was incredible. So I am not ragging on Josh. But this was not, overall, a game where Josh was superman despite failure around him. This was a game where his receivers - Davis, Diggs and Shakir all made really good plays for Allen.
The other huge issue was the costly penalties. Spencer brown on the tripping was not a smart play by him. He did his job by making the DE stumble with the initial block. No need to throw his legs. The following Morse holding was absolutely ludicrous.
I honestly think that drive would have been a successful one

Can we talk about the officiating?
Felt like there were ~5 borderline calls on the Bills that negated big plays.
We would've won this game by 2+ TD's with non-biased officiating.
Agree. I thought both holding calls on Morse were awful.
on top of that, the RT for the chargers was definitely holding on Tim settle on Easton sticks TD run. Dion has been called for that exact play a few times the last couple of weeks.

Not sure about Brady today.
The Bills with Josh Allen under center threw for fewer yards than the Chargers typically give up.
We should have been to exploit their weak pass defense.
It didn’t help Josh’s passes were seemingly off target a majority of the night. The Diggs underthrown, Davis across the middle, even the Shakir completion in the third quarter was behind him and took a good play from Khalil to catch that. If that was a well placed pass, Shakir probably scores on that.
Josh played poorly in the passing game. But when it counted, he made the plays.
