I didn't say you made that comparison, my friend. All good!

Fair points - Maybe my main point got lost in translation a bit - Mixon (in a vacuum) is not nearly on par with Henry in my view. But I totally agree that an effective Texans ground game would be concerning. Career stats also favor Henry pretty resoundingly.

Mixon is good not great - Not really on the same level as Henry in my view - And he may not even play. What also made Henry extra deadly is Lamar's running ability - A two-headed dragon. We'll see but I don't think Mixon will be the difference maker in this game if he plays.

Not feeling great about this one but I think we squeeze out a win and get back on track. 30-27

Excellent post, thanks!!

Maybe Darnold working out with Josh in the offseason (I understand they're close friends and live on same street or something) has helped him a lot? It's just a wild guess but could be a factor in his improvement.

Jets are good . . . at sh@tting the bed.

Jets lose AND Rodgers got hit a lot and seems "wobbly" . . .

Pretty much agree with the "If Tua was my kid . . ." part - Discuss decision with close family members too. So basically gather the best medical information possible and then decide with input from his inner non-team circle. And he may need to consider things in a probabilistic sense, like if he gets hit once more, he's 75% likely to be out for X weeks and have these Y long-term effects, etc.

I agree with a lot of what you wrote. Tua being in our division also means that we've "gotten to know him" more than a lot of other players. We're more familiar with him, and therefore we might be more inclined to feel badly for the guy. I never posted or said anything re Hyde's return, but I get your point there.

Not sure how you can call it crocodile tears when if all that mattered were beating the Fins, having Tua play is preferable to him retiring. Many of us our family men and women, and when you take into account that he has a family, I think a lot of people genuinely feel bad for the guy (who by all accounts is a good guy). There's a lot of blame to go around, including Tua himself, but I personally believe alot of Bills fans are sincerely concerned about his health and think that retiring should be strongly considered.

Such an easy decision then, just retire!! I would say that even if I weren't a Bills fan.

I suppose it was pretty Un-Likely that he'd get it (sorry, had to do that!).

Same as last week: Cook on O, Rousseau on D!

At the time, I saw 4th and 3 on the field/live game and 4th and 2 on my phone (checking other scores during commercial, I think) - I said to my son something like "if it's really 4th and 2, maybe we'll go for it" and then saw it confirmed for sure 4th and 3 on the field.

Rough start but a lot of positives by the end of the game. One thing is clear - We have a lot of receivers now with "good" hands (and Von is back).

I'm strangely sensing that too, HBS! Hope we're right! Go Bills!!

Rousseau on D and Cook on O.

Straight sets! First semis in a grand slam!
