Sammy Watkins' Rib

Looking like wind won't be much of an issue tomorrow night. 8-10pmh at kick-off and dropping as the game goes on. That's good news. Chance of precipitation is only about 20%.

I think it is a huge plus for us that we've already played Bosa and saw how he wrecked our rhythm that day. And since that was jut two games ago I'm pretty confident we will have a plan going into this one in how to limit TJ's effectiveness.

The game the Bills didn't punt the ball and Allen had his quietest 300 yard game ever? Two TD's taken off the board that would be TD's 9 times out of 10. Also, because of the opponent pressure was never really on the Bills to go for it on 4th down. If we do, we probably convert a couple and extend drives for another TD or two.

No Stache Allen bobbleheads?

As long as we beat the Steelers Sunday night it seems unlikely week 17 won't at least be for seeding. Come week 17 Bills will either have the #2 seed or be in position for the #2 seed if Steelers lose. And if they hold the #2 seed they will likely need to beat Miami to keep it.

Well worth noting to finish the season @ 49ers MNF vs Steelers SNF @ Denver standalone national Saturday game @ New England MNF vs. Dolphins Maybe it's not an accident that the NFL gave the Bills so many late season primetime games? The Allen hysteria around the NFL will be in full bloom come this Monday morning if the Bills beat the Steelers and Allen has another nice showing. Allen would be promoted like crazy going into the Denver and New England games.

Yeah I think I may have been wrong about Murray. I thought he was going to be a special QB. I definitely see the downtrodden demeaner.

Yep. Very hard to win the MVP when you probably won't even win your division. As I said in another thread, regardless of what Rodgers and Mahomes do, the MVP really can be Allen's to lose. The key is all the primetime games down the home stretch. Win out, and put up like 10:1 TD to INT ratio in the three prime time games (he's already 4:0) he'll have a really good shot. I could also see both Rodgers and Mahomes splitting half the vote allowing Allen to get the other half. He's also doesn't have a compelling storyline, or any storyline really, which right or wrong is part of the MVP equation. Rodgers has the " they disrespected me with the Love pick and didn't draft me any help" line. Allen has the "biggest single season jump from year 2 to year 3" story line. And one of the most panned QB's ever to come out of the draft in the top 10.

Can't unfortunately. I bet six teamers and rarely are their even six games I want to bet on Monday or Tuesday morning.

Josh stayed clean for the most part. Sherman might be referencing a couple of those plays where Allen rolled right to the sideline and threw daggers for a couple toe tappers. This has become one of Allen's specialties and our receivers have consistently stepped up on the boundary for us.

That would be nice and an absolute steal. But probably not realistic. Anything below Watson's deal would be a great bargain. And Watson is at what $39 million per year?

Man I hope it stays at +1.5 /+1. I want to absolutely hammer that line with a teaser. That feels like the lock of the week for a teaser.

I think QBR is still a good stat. Josh is top 6-7 in both QB Rating and QBR. I'll take it. Josh has had games where his QB Rating was 77 (Bad) but his QBR was 67 (Good). This was the Titans game. And most of us agreed he played well despite the overall bad QB Rating. But even with the two fumbles 75 QBR seems awfully low for last nights performance. And you would assume QBR would be smart enough to not credit Allen with the Moss fumble.

The guy we need to lock up is Daboll. Allen is a no brainer and that will happen this off-season. But let's not forget about Daboll. We should make Daboll a lifer. He can stay with Josh and become the GOAT OC.

It's amazing what a franchise QB will allow you to do.

Yeah. It's the uniqueness of the Bills schedule that gives him a chance at all. He just lit up the 49ers and the entire country got to witness it. He has the rare chance to go back to back and do the same to the Steelers on SNFF. Then two weeks later the Patriots. He has to navigate a tight rope but I do see a path.

Because I love getting way ahead of myself, I was just thinking Allen still has a path to the MVP. Heck, I'd even maybe say he controls his own destiny. The key is all the primetime games. He doesn't have a lot of room for error though. Bills basically have to win out and Allen has to play well in all of them averaging 3 TD's or more per game. In particular he has to have 3+ TD games against the Steelers and Patriots on SNF and MNF respectively. Yeah, Mahomes and Rodgers will have unbelievable numbers still but the people that vote for these kind of awards are always looking for cool story lines. Allen having a breakout season and crashing the party of great QB's is probably the best storyline. Especially now that the Seahawks and Wilson are faltering down the stretch. That last minute Hail Murray also really hurt. The media would have been all over Allen in a good way had the Bills held on after Allen's go ahead TD.

He was just 25 yards shy of his third 400 yard 3+ TD O INT 130+ rating game of the season. And no player has ever had more than one in a season.

Are the Steelers our dream match up? They can't run the ball and they are starting to lose some good players from their stout defense.

That was one of them but not a turnover. He's credited with two fumbles and one turnover and that was the Moss fumble.

He's no worse than #4. Mahomes is clearly #1 still. Wilson, Rodgers and Allen can go anywhere from 2-4 depending on the week.

One of those rare win-win trades for both teams. But unfortunately for the Vikes and Jefferson they will probably have issues in a few seasons when the Vikings likely do not have a franchise QB and have to make a decision on Jefferson. And will Jefferson want to sign long-term if they don't have a QB?

Total BS. I checked the box score and was like WTF?

Big time Man Crush.

And Gardner Minshew.
