Well, no. The risk of xp miss assumption, more eloquently said by me, would be the same for the Bills or Dolphins. The Bills would have six or seven on the board, and the Dolphins would respond with six or seven. My assumption is that the xp result is the same for both teams. I wrote “assumed both make.” Thirty four seconds to match a TD, same xp result, and then OT.

Full disclosure. I’ve not coached an NFL team and I’ve not run the numbers, but: Seems to me odds of taking the TD and allowing 34 seconds and winning are greater than running out the clock and kicking the FG. Assumption: No team misses an xtra point if they get a TD. Situation becomes Bills up by seven. Miami has to score a TD in 34 seconds and then beat us in OT. I think this is less likely than a FG on that turf (cleared or not) with that makeshift OL. One poster has Hill living rent free in McDermott’s mind. There may be something to this.

Bump ….

Man, Bills are just money in these one score games.

That’ll happen when it’s you and nothing.

It’s Allen and nothing against the world.

NFL …. the sport that debates catch, game after game.

Catch punts. Don’t catch punters.

Knox … good guy, occasional highlight, undependable playing a position where dependability is a requirement

She’s being raised right …

I get the original post. Choosing either over the other isn’t ludicrous. I would like to see a poll of NFL GMs. One game, who do you pick? I think it’s something like 24 to 8, Mahomes. Now, take away Reid and McDermott, it’s closer to 20 to 12. No slight to anyone. Josh is my guy. He’s “Buffalo.”

Opinions all …. which teams travel best in your experience? I have Pittsburgh, Green Bay, the Raiders and The Bills, in no particular order. Historically, Pittsburgh and Green Bay? Josh Allen area, The Bills?

Well, I’d rather not have the punt blocked, but we picked up yards and it’s still a two TD game

Tre White …

I agree with your sentiment, certain in the very near future. But, this year, I still like our QB advantage, especially when compared to some of the other teams we’re likely to see instead.

I’d love to see that again in a crucial situation in a playoff game … with a snap after the film’s out there and the defense rocking BACK on their heals.

Careful what you ask for. I, too, am wearing my lucky tee shirt .. braless - and I was at the last game at the Rockpile.

I was there with my grandmother and grand aunt! Interesting links in the OP. Bills were 13 point underdogs and fumbled 5 times, losing 3. Detroit had no turnovers.

Something, something, Florida and hanging chads.

I believe the two of you are exploring the difference between “not necessarily” and “most probably.”

I”m not sure “should be someone else” is the best first instinct when someone’s honored, regardless of the merit of others. Could be lots of folk … it’s Dawkins. Here’s to Dion.

I have been offered promotions I’ve turned down. As Clint said, “A man’s got to know his limitations.” I don’t think being OC prepares one for being HC. Being an OC can inform someone who has an HC aptitude but it doesn’t provide the aptitude. OCs are artists. HCs are decorators. Chefs and restaurant managers. DJs and event planners, etc.

If they play .500 ball and we go undefeated, we can catch them in 51 years.
