Hot take.

I watched yesterday's game with my buddy who is a Packers fan. His observation was that he did not believe that Allen trusts his receivers to catch the ball when he throws it. The number of pumps on passing plays was, at times, ridiculous. It was as though he wanted to throw but saw who is the receiver on the other end and decided it wasn't worth the risk. That was his assessment and, in general, I could see that being the case.

He returned to the field and played well after it looked like he was gone for the game. I was pretty surprised as it appeared to be quite painful for him when he went out.

Yes, he's been a real stud in the run game that DiMarco. Taiwan Jones is next man up

That's a really good get for a player who, odds are, doesn't see the field this season. @billieve420 made a good play as Cohen has not been effective and, if his team is stacked, that gives him a BIG weapon if Bell does play this year.

Interesting that Gaines is fully healthy and not even active. The coaching staff must really like what they have been seeing in Lewis and, based on last week, I'd have to agree.

The guy starting in Cobb's place has been on special teams pretty much exclusively through the first 3 games.

Sad to see Murphy out, but if Shady is at 80% or higher and we have Ivory in there, the RB duo remains strong. Now, about that run blocking....

I tried to keep an eye on Edmunds and Lewis last week on D. Was very impressed with Lewis, who had Diggs covered well a number of times. Tre was definitely covering him more, but both did an excellent job. Certainly better than the vaunted Rams secondary did

You and your damned logic!

When Bodine cramped up, I told the group of Vikes fans I was sitting with that it would result in greater pressure. I may be wrong, but I think the very next play was a 7 yard sack. Bodine may not be the long-term answer, but he is the current best one.

Zay didn't look bad yesterday from what I saw when trying to focus in on him. Routes were good and he was open a few times over the middle and Allen didn't see it or threw elsewhere. I think the more that he and Allen play together, the better he will look. The JuJu comparisons will always haunt us, but I feel that he's going to grow into a WR3 on a playoff squad, which is sufficient to say he's not a complete bust. Tough thing is that he's th Bills WR2 right now. FYI, Holmes is WR1 because he's the only one holding onto the damn ball when he gets 3 or more targets

Off to tailgate here in Minneapolis. Prognosticators be damned.. let's get a win here Bills!

19/33 212yards 2 tds 2int 32yards rushing. Let's not talk about Cousins 380 yard game that is coming our way.

See you there! In the airport in beautiful Victoria BC heading to the game!

I assume you know this is not the good Michael Bennett currently playing on the Eagles. He would not be a character fit, but we could definitely use him. You're righ about Pastzor. He has started in this league and is well worth a tire kick.

Man. Is nobody going to this game? I would have thought somebody else would want to check out US Bank stadium and see the Mary Tyler Moore statue.

So sorry to see this. Not a worse feeling in the world than losing a child. Immense prayers and condolences go out to Matt and his family.

Who's going to witness this weeks "game" in Minny? Thinking a good tailgate in which I get blindly incoherent might make things more pleasant. Go Bills!

I didn't pick and choose. Those were high-yardage plays that he threw poorly. Those plays both added numbers to his total More than any of his other throws. I'm as bullish on JA's prospects as anyone, but the rose coloured glasses are not to be worn.He's a talent that needs polishing.

The yardage is skewed by a few big plays (Zay Jones and DiMarco come to mind) where he got lucky that it wasn't picked and had poor ball placement. You're 100% correct in both statements. The line is bad and he's going to need to make quicker reads and trust his receivers to go get the deep ball and lead them with his throws. If he doesn't he's going to lead the league in picks and incompletions really quickly.

No malls for me. Maybe Nicollet Mall. Lots of good micro-breweries and eateries plus a cool stadium. I think I'll be fine up until the 15 minute mark of quarter 1.

I completely am fortunate in that I have/had no expectations for this game aside from seeing a new city/stadium, eating good Scando food and drinking new craft beers. I'm now excited to watch Allen's progression.

Dan Bailey, welcome to Minny

Why I picked this game to travel to, I have no idea.
