Notorious rich philanderer and misogynist turns to religion...story at eleven.

At least the Bills have now shown they can win road games (Pitt and NE). Their offensive communication at the LOS in the 2nd half today was impressive...

But like, WAS it really? PI was for sure, but I did NOT see anyone catching that pass except the DB. SUPER proud of the players for their underrated ability to keep cool when things got heated against the Steelers and the Pats. Both teams took liberties and the Bills dudes stayed focused. Good on em.

The Pats were missing ONE DT today and we're supposed to be sympathetic about that? LMAO. That's rich.

Copy that. But, like, also...what if we just don't care about media content noise? The game results are what matters. The POST-game analyses. All this predictive, pseudo-analytic PRE-game noise is arbitrary and probably somehow paid for/sponsored.

While it's theoretically possible that a Patriots fan could actually be an ensouled, decent human being, I find it difficult to believe without beaucoup proof. Your tone is acceptable, but your Moss x Diggs comp is a stretch. Moss was so much better, and, during his tenure with the dark side, a much better soldier as well. Diggs didn't show up in the biggest games AND became untenably toxic.

Do we have to?

For those worried about Allen's mindset in such an important week: he's known about this for months, possibly known about it since before week 1. Nothing is changed for him personally. Professionally, though, he will have new media narratives to downplay pre- and post-game. That's the only difference moving forward this season. She's obviously been preggers for a few months. *good on them for their snowy, WNY-centric announcement. So refreshing for such high profile figures. Almost as though they respect the beauty and majesty of our robust and dynamic, seasonal climate. The organization will never have another unicorn like Allen. Enjoy it while he's here.

See, the spirit of the question could be interpreted differently, in that when we say a player or team would "want (a play or game) back" we usually mean that they should have succeeded if they'd simply done their jobs. Generally speaking, the Bills should be MORE REGRETFUL of the Dolphins loss compared to the Patriots loss. The Patriots are legit, so losing to the Dolphins likely involves more self-inflicted, unforced errors (in preparation, execution, etc.) from a perennial contender like Buffalo. Obviously the Patriots loss is more impactful for playoff seeding, so changing the result is more immediately helpful, but that's not how I would interpret the phrasing in the OP.

Hurts the Steelers, which is fine by me. Also hurts the Dolphins, because more meaningless wins for them will mean worse draft position, I guess? And also hurts the Patriots, if the Bills win on Sunday, because a motivated week 18 Dolphins team on an impressive late-season run could be formidable with momentum and nothing to lose? And moreover, hopefully, helps ALL players by shining another light on player health and medical treatment, given that we've potentially seen this type of procedure-caused "injury" play out previously (and with MAJOR impact to the player in question: Tyrod Taylor of course)?

We need more of this: And less of this:

Return of the Clap (sung to the tune of "Return of the Mack" OF COURSE)

Agreed. No way that was to Shavers, although of course we can see that Shavers was open and breaking outside along the back line almost exactly into the path of Allen's throw. But Allen's infield sidearm dart was definitely driven into Shakir's chest on purpose with his immediate defender's back turned. The proximity of two more defenders was not likely a prioritized part of 17's visual processing at that precise moment. Plus a throw to Shavers would have had a few degrees more loft and you'd be able to see the difference in Allen's eyes and maybe arm angle imo.

Fair if one cares about how others are perceiving the move, for sure. That's not my focus, though. I'm wondering how good Slay still is and how well he'd fit what the Bills do in the secondary. Howie Roseman has obviously made so many good moves overall, but bringing Slay BACK to Philly (home for his family) is a bit different than bringing him somewhere sight unseen in week 14. People are free to evaluate this how they please.

There is, and should be, some critical questioning of what a mostly-cooked, all-man coverage CB like Slay can really offer the Bills down the stretch, and why is that worth dumping a decent depth DB piece who plays STs? As to the bolded, we're doomed! Amen.
