His point remains valid - dummy or not. I just hope he is cleared to play Sunday.

Playoff geeks - does the Browns loss help us if we fail to beat the cheats?

Great write up again Freddie! It's quite sad if you think about it....Beane really wanted him in that draft, then thought he missed out on him to another team who then took another guard, then Beane got his guy. And then who could forget how emotional Ford got when he knew the Bills drafted him? I'm probably dreaming or deluded but maybe something clicks next year - however it's looking more and more unlikely.

"Build Back Better" - a meaningless catchphrase if ever there was one

Devin is a serviceable RB, we just need to upgrade a couple of OLinemen to get more out of him.

If Trubisky does play, I would be fairly confident that he would be a better version in a Buffalo jersey than a Chicago one.

I would rather the Colts beat the Pats and risk missing the playoffs altogether if it means we have a shot at winning the division. We just need to win the games we should win, and then it boils down to an even-money bet against the Pats. It all starts with a big confidence boosting win against Carolina.

Who are the ins and outs / inactives? EDIT - I see it above

We've been heading south since the KC game. Must be hitch-hiking.

I think we are a little soft but I would also say there is an element of fear and an inability to make big plays in pressure moments that we were much better at last year. Of course, the biggest problem is the O-line and a limited OC.

I would also give Dawkins the benefit of the doubt given his new contract and any potential lingering COVID issues. But yeah - the guys playing on the interior should be well and truly be placed on notice.

This one was like an unexpected gut punch, followed closely by a kick in the Christmas decorations. I may recover in time to see Fournette and Brady skewer us on Sunday like an Afghan goat on a spit.

Looking at the schedule, the safe way to make the playoffs is obviously to win out. But I can't see a set of circumstances where that happens. This team is psychologically beaten. They cannot win the close games or beat contenders. So that probably rules out wins over Tampa and NE. 10-7 is now the ceiling. And with the poor conference record, it probably won't be enough. If - and that's a big if - we could beat NE, and the Colts could beat NE in Indy, then theoretically we could still win the division - even with a loss to Tampa. But the way I am feeling at the moment, I wouldn't be too upset if we missed the playoffs and got a higher draft position to help strengthen a few obvious weaknesses. I simply don't see the point in limping into the playoffs and just making up the numbers. Better to re-load and go again next year with wide eyes open.

In the pre-game thread I said we needed Dabolls best game plan and good execution. I'd argue that we might have got Dabolls worst and the execution was poor. We laid a rotten egg. !@#$ I'm pisssed.

Really need Daboll to be at his best tonight - and for the offense to execute in tough conditions. Come on Bills!!

As you would be if you shagged your supermodel girlfriend and the best you could produce was this:

Any chance one of them was Suzy Kolber and she was wearing a short skirt?

Wow....Josh really gave it to that Colorado LB after rushing for the first down....here's hoping he gives some of that to Judon and co....

Is that guy trying to reduce the wind speed with a phone app?

Got to be honest and say that I do not have the same level of confidence in this team compared to last season and now without Tre it just makes it a bit worse - but I have a feeling we get the W tonight.

Not sure it beats my studio audience ticket to "The View" but I guess it's OK

Just wondering.....are the Cuomo's "in the hunt" for a playoff spot in the NSBEL (National Slimiest-Brothers-Ever League) ?

Is this the right thread to post material on the Cuomo Brothers scandal?

Memo to the perenially triggered - he will be back bigger and better than ever!
