Pats truly have the easiest schedule I’ve ever witnessed. With Burrow and Chase they’re losing this game. Flacco, after a few good games, is just awful.

Glad Breece Hall never went to the Chiefs because he is a menace out there for the Jets today. Taylor looks competent. 7-0 Jets.

TD Jets

Should be ok. But he’s got a shoulder injury coming into the game and got rocked by Breece Hall on that shoulder.

Kyle Hamilton down with a shoulder injury.

Baltimore is lucky they’re playing the worst offenses in football right now because they should’ve lost to the Browns if Shadeur wasn’t playing and they look awful against the Jets right now.

So…. Daniel Jones is just elite now? Dude is navigating a messy pocket and delivering strikes.

Lamar is a mess. Hes still struggling to move.

Drake Maye is an abject disaster today.

3rd down deep in own end for Baltimore. Hopkins rips the defenders face mask down. Defender grabs him. Holding Jets. Alright.

Flacco has guys running open and keeps missing. If he gets his act together, Bengals have a shot here.

Ok, Chiefs got screwed there.

Maye looks a bit rattled against the Bengals early

It’s more than this year. He wasn’t good last year either. 3-0 Bengals

Chiefs DL isn’t good but the Colts OL is getting rocked so far. Jones looks good!!.. gotta hand it to him early.

Oh boy… Mahomes with a pick on first pass

Illegal formation on a big play against teams playing the Chiefs is always a fun twist.

Would you rather play Steelers on the road or Ravens on the road? Seems like a pretty easy choice to me.

It’s a weird spot because our Defense usually does figure it out if they have a bad half, but with our Offense, when the game script flips and we are playing with the worry that it could get away from us, it seems to put extra strain on Josh Allen to where he doesn’t feel comfortable taking the easy stuff or avoiding sacks/turnovers. Combined with Brady’s struggles, it then snowballs to become an all-game issue.

I see people saying they don’t want to face Denver’s Defense or Indy’s running game in the playoffs. I am 100% going to bet on Josh Allen vs Daniel Jones, Josh Allen vs Bo Nix and honestly.. Josh Allen vs CJ Stroud as I don’t think the Texans, who are a horrible matchup for our Offense, would do that twice, in one year, in the Playoffs. We’re going to have to play someone. Give me any game where we have the decided QB edge in the postseason. Only games where that isn’t decidedly in our favor.. Burrow, Jackson (moreso due to his running game), Mahomes. Not putting Maye there until he does it in the playoffs.. I see Herbert look good most years and in his playoff games, disasterclass. I seem to remember having to play an elite defense in the WC last year. Allen & Cook went bonkers on them.

I’ve seen Daboll’s Offense, beyond Year 1, look elite in the playoffs. We’re in Brady’s full Year 2, and have defenses saying they knew exactly what we’d try to do, with film guys all but calling Brady a simple idiot. Absence does make the heart grow fonder. In this case, it’s warranted.

It’s like we constantly defend and make excuses for our abuser. “Well, the defense is so beat up...” This refrain is now going on 3 years in a row. Every year this is an excuse. Something can’t be an excuse 3 years in a row. At some point it’s reality and correlation does equal causation. Sign old players. Draft undersized players. Extend injury prone players. What do we think is going to happen? This Defense has: Current DL.. former 2nd Round Pick on an extension, former 1st Round Pick on an extension. $12.6M DE. Recent high 2nd Round Pick. Recent high 4th Round Pick. $7M DT and an $8M DT. LB..Recent extension at LB. Recent 3rd Round Pick. $6M LB. Slot.. $10M per year slot corner CB.. Recent extension. 1st Round Pick. S.. Recent 2nd Round Pick. But why should we ever expect them to be above average with a defensive minded HC with the losses of Oliver and Hoecht!?… that’s why.

Unless CIN runs the table, they shouldn’t be an issue for us. 10-7 is probably the line and unless we lose three in a row, we’ll have the tiebreaker over PIT & BAL and/or knocked CIN down to 8 losses with a tie-breaker over them. Im pulling for them to beat NE, not only for the faint hope of the AFCE, but I also want that game on Thursday with Burrow & Chase returning to have as much juice as possible. It’s do or die for them either way, but looking at schedules, even more real coming off a win. My rooting interests for the rest of the season are basically Bills get in and Baltimore, KC get left out. If NE beats CIN, I’m probably to the point where I’d root for them to beat Baltimore, because I wouldn’t see them losing to the Giants, Jets or Dolphins.

It’s a podcast. Go to where you can find those on your phone, look up Locked On Bills and then you’ll see all the recent shows. Bills Squad is an hour long one Joe Marino has twice per week with Jeremy White and Jerry Ostroski.

Dont care. The good guy squad can’t get it done. I hope he races his car tonight too.
