Can't tell you, Bill, sorry. There's no obvious "Download" button to click, that much I can say. I'm still trying to figure it all out.
One irritating thing about NFLPlus, though, is that I can't watch live games on computer. Only archived. You can watch live games only on tablet or phone.
I don't have a tablet and am not interested in watching games on a tiny phone screen.
I don't mind so much, as it's 2:00 a.m. here now. I'm headed for bed. I'd love to have watched the first quarter, though, but you can't do it.
Plug your phone charger cable into your laptop usb.
Plug an hdmi from laptop to TV.
Use this app on the laptop for the phone charger to USB laptop to work
You'll have to use developer tools on the phone to do USB debugging.

I live in Scripps Ranch. Several Bills fans in our neighborhood and only two are obnoxious to the point of not being able to hang.
The more we win. The more fair weather backers we will have. Plus josh has a fan club for himself.
I wish they’d move the local backers bar to somewhere a bit more safe and not as scummie. PB is a trash hole. I’d like to see one in a nicer neighborhood, Del Mar possibly.
Haha! Del Mar. Now that's a Buffalo town!
Man, if PB is a trash hole, I don't even want to hear your description of OB, or worse yet, IB, or even worse than that, Las Playas de Tijuana!
Advice: Stay in Scripps Ranch and watch it at home alone in your gated community.
I also want to give a shout out to those who risk their lives (pictured below) to watch Bills games in the scummy trash hole aka Pacific Beach, California. You are true heroes.

It happened, in Monterey, a long time ago …. I met her, in Monterey ….
I left Buffalo in 2012 for San Francisco, where in North Beach the city’s Bills Backers Bar was at The Northstar Cafe.Going there for 6 years made me a bigger Bills fan than had I stayed in Buffalo.
I moved from San Diego and now live in Oakland, and go to the Northstar Cafe for Bills games. It's better than PB Local by far.

Why the Salah hate? I don't get it. He seems to be on the same level as McD. Good motivators and weaker on the xs and os. Tough blue collar coaches.
Blue collar doesn't mean anything. It's a dumb phrase attached to certain types of people based in how they look, act, and talk, but it's hollow.
Who is not blue collar? The Dolphins, Chargers, and 49ers coaches? Why? Because they're not tough, gruff, mean, and demanding of their players?
Seriously, the game, by its very structure, demands hard work, toughness, etc. It's blue collar, regardless.
If Salah is so "blue collar" then why does he wear designer shades, drive a Tesla, get weekly manicures, and have a house in Napa County? Sounds like a bourgeois puff boy to me!
Meanwhile McDermott lives in a humble two bedroom home in the old first ward South Buffalo, drives 2003 Ford ranger, trims his nails, and gets his glasses from Zenni. Now that's the salt of the earth proletariat!

I mean inheritance is a terrible thing for the world as it just ensures that rich people create an ever richer and more powerful ruling class that can never be uprooted. I don't see it going away any time soon for the folks that have created multi-generational wealth.

One wierd example is that I pay for a regional sports package including the YES network and I still pay for MLB season package. But YES or MLB blacks out replays of Yankee games outside of New York. You can watch the game live, but you can't watch the replay even after paying for the services. Stupid crap like that, pushes people to go onto the pirated streaming sites.
You just explained why poor people engage in black market capitalism and/or steal to survive.
Interesting how shifting the context a tiny bit brings to light brute facts about poverty and crime.

"I just think that our team is weaker than last year." - You may want to compare the two rosters.
"With all the pundants saying the Bills window is closing," - You probably spend too much time listening to the wrong pundits.
I don't know how old you are, but for those over 50, this could be our greatest time to be a Bills fan. So enjoy every second because it may not be this good for quite a
A person who is now ten years old would have probably had enough intellectual awareness to comprehend the revolting mass of sewage that was the Tyrod vs Bortels 10-3 playoff game.

So, you can't know if you're doing your career/profession/job better or worse today than you were the day you started unless somebody's done an "objective study" of your progress or lack of same? My guess is that your supervisor doesn't need to study a dataset to figure out whether you've improved since you were hired or not.
You got two different claims here.
Maybe I know it either subjectively or objectively or both. But my supervisor isnt going to rate my performance on what I think about my performance in my own head.
My supervisor should have something objective on which to base my performance and the performance of others. This helps to combat bias, prejudice, gut feelings, nepotism, cronyism, etc. in the workplace.
Again, let's look at some standards to rate Dorsey and those with more or less experience than him.
My overall point is that maxims or broad truisms do not mean anything.

As an aside, just curious: how many interactions have you had with multiple (many) lawyers to be able to objectively assess whether they are worse, better, or the same, over time? Not doubting you, it just seems unusual for a person to have that much interaction with many lawyers over time.
Continuous improvement, professionally or personally, requires that one remain committed and dedicated to one's craft and continue to work hard and try to improve year by year. Some people stay hungry. Some people plateau, because they lose that fire to improve.
It seems obvious that by the time Rex wined and woo'ed Russ Brandon and the Pegulas into a big contract, he felt he had "arrived" and didn't have to continue to grind and study film and put in the hours. He was "phoning it in".
On the other hand, when we hired Daboll, many here were against it, saying he had poor offenses (#29, 31, 20, 32) in 4 years as OC on 3 teams. There were stories from one of his former QB about Daboll just screaming into the helmet and continually putting him down. It seemed risky.
After 4 years as OC in Buffalo, at least some here have been saying we should have fired McDermott and handed the reins to Daboll.
I think it's worth reiterating that under Dorsey, the Bills had the #3 offense in the league for points last season, and top 10 for both passing and rushing yards. That matches 2020 under Daboll and is somewhat better than 2021 under Daboll.
Haha. Not too many lawyers. My main point is that the broad generalization that the lawyer made doesn't mean anything. Cherry picking the examples of Belechick, LeBron, Reid (and himself) is meaningless without an objective standard. His claim is about experience with the implication that it results in objective success. His claim gets muddled in subjective self-reflection with the LaBron quote. But it's decontextualized pathos speak. LaBron got DWade and a star teammate with the Lakers. Belechick got Brady. Reid got Mahomes. He got his dream paralegal (maybe). So, his maxim, really means nothing. That was my point. If he wants people to stop complaining about Dorsey, he should provide the data you provided, not espouse some grand truth about experience coupled with the bias of his individual anecodotal example that highlights his age and profession.

Maybe you're young, but this statement, in my humble opinion, is amazingly naive. Do you think that if Dorsey is an Offensive coordinator for the next 20 years, he won't be any better than he was this season? That he'll never improve?
That's just wrong. I've practiced law for 40 years, and I was so much better in year 5 than year 1, it was amazing. Year 10 I was way ahead of year 5, and by year 20, well, that's when I hit my stride. Ask Andy Reid, and he'll tell you the same thing about his coaching career. Ask Belichick.
I saw an interview after he won his most recent NBA championship. He was asked what he would say to the 27-year-old Lebron (after his first championship) if he could sit in a room with him. Lebron said he'd tell the kid Lebron, "you don't have a clue."
Your letter carrier may not get better his job, but professional football coaches get better,
A universial maxim about experience, knowledge, practice, and subsequent success conflicts with objective data. In the NFL, many coaches get worse over time, e.g., Rex Ryan.
Many lawyers do, too.
Keep in mind that there must be some objective measure to serve as evidence of success via experience.

Belichick created a culture of fear, respect and brutal levels of hard work.
That method worked well (at the time), because he also had Tom Brady and a team with a winning reputation.
I'm not sure that style fits McDermott's personality, or if it would go over in this particular locker room.
As an outside fan, something does seem to be off mentally with this team. It's August and you can already sense the frustration and lack of focus. Maybe it's bleed-over from the way last season ended. Maybe it's somehow related to all the Stefon Diggs drama. Maybe it's something with the coaching staff. Maybe Josh Allen really is too distracted with the rise to fame. I just don't know.
But if this team doesn't get its head on straight quickly, the Jets are going to punch them in the mouth Week 1.
I agree. But aside from "a culture of fear, respect and brutal levels of hard work", there must also have been training and education, i.e., coaching the technical aspects of the game that prevents presnap and other bonehead penalties.
Perhaps there is a mental aspect that's affecting the team. I guess I would want a group of players who are so well trained that mental errors that stem from a lack of focus or being frustrated, etc., would be rare.

"Next guy that jumps offside gets cut!"
Sorry, not a series answer.
It would seem that there would be an educational approach that would involve something technical in terms of execution that would be practiced repeatedly, rather than basic physical discipline.
How did Belechick do it? Or any coach that had/has very few penalties?

It could be something besides jealousy. It may be the old tough blue collar mentality that some Buffalonians carry. It's like anything that's new, hip, a fad, or a bit glamorous is unacceptable, like a dome stadium with amenities...or Allen enjoying a bit of celebrity.

I'll try to block the parts of the screen I don't want to see with my hand. Or make my eyes blurry enough to navigate what I want but not see what I don't want to. I haven't tried this on DAZN yet but I used to do it effectively on NFL GamePass before I found a way to hide scores.
I've used an old pair of prescription glasses I found when we were cleaning out my Aunt Joanne's house in South Buffalo after she died. They blur the scores better than anything else I tried. Sort of a silver lining situation.

Rigged? No.
Part of human error includes unconscious bias.
If we look to sociological studies of unconscious bias, it seems to be a real thing.
It's sort of like how people will wait longer to honk at people in expensive cars compared to people with junkers. (This was a real study.)
In NFL, it could be referees calling less penalties on a successful coach and/or team compared to a crap coach/team.
It would be very hard to gather concrete evidence to really support it without it being a tautological argument.
Why did the Patriots win six super bowls?
Because it's rigged.
Why is the nfl rigged?
Because the Patriots won six super bowls.
On a side note, these arguments are used all the time.
Why are people poor?
Because they're lazy.
Why are people lazy?
Because they're poor.
So, the bias against the Patriots and the poor serve as the foundation to formulate the tautological argument.
