Explains the intentional grounding call when Allen had the horse collar non-call. Apparently the refs don't think Gabe Davis counts as a receiver anymore either.

I tend to make myself some gumbo. Horses for courses, though (especially in France).

Getting a solid DT and quality CB to replace a couple of those has helped significantly.

No idea, things change from year to year. Fortunately the BBC does radio coverage on the Sky games a bit - so with KC and Dallas I could at least follow with live (ish, there is some delay) coommentary.

Phillips went out, did not return I think

Probably not for the next couple of games - I cannot see either being blacked out due to broadcasting clashes anywhere - there are more exciting games about for neutrals. Would be down to what the Portuguese sports channels are showing (if they show NFL games at all, I would imagine they would these days).

Nice complementary post...😜

The Bills game has been blacked out the last three freaking weeks on DAZN. The one reason I have DAZN is to watch Bills games live, this year 4/5 games have not been shown (So far - I expect the Miami game will add to that total). Next year I will have to try and find a radio feed as DAZN not worth the dosh as things stand.

I thought that was Marv?

Whatever else Mullens is, he sure is entertaining.

The difference in the use of motion in the last few weeks has been night and day. It is nice to see our receivers suddenly having acrres of space.

One of those actors I loved watching excel in their craft. Superb in Homicide. And pretty much everything else I watched him in.

Dammit

Yeah, well having paid for DAZN to watch the Bills for the second straight week they are not streaming the Bills game. What I would give to only miss a few minutes at the start of the game. Sigh.

They discuss Von at the start of the show. If he gets suspended, which seems to be a likely outcome, then it becomes manageable. They save a couple of million on the year, but there will be options to claw back cap dollars later on (in short, likely a lengthy process a year or two down the line). If no suspension then the Bills will be significantly worse off if they get rid of him. So until things get clearer they were not going to factor in the what-ifs of the situation. The cap increase is already figured in to their figures.

True.

Talking of Dickens... writers before Dickens were already complaining about Chrismas becoming too commercialised. I think it pretty much ALWAYS hasa been. I suspect there is a good chance there were Roman nobles complaining about the commercialisation of Saturnalia back in the day...

I have an opinion on the play of former Bills LB Tremaine Edmunds and his importance to the defence. It does not matter what my opinion is, for I know it will be both highly unpopular and popular at the same time. It is Schrodinger's opinion. Also I believe you can never have too many threads hijacked by opinions on Tremaine Edmunds...

I think we did and deferred.

KC called a time out. So he could come back in.

Spleen. Obviously the spleen...

The game starts at 2 am here, so that's fun...

Morris is inactive (caught the illness)

Started with a gimpy ankle and hurt it again straight away. Really causes problems with his mobility and makes pass blocking against speed pass rushers that much more difficult. As we have seen.

Yep. Happy about that. But maximum respect for the players who refused to sing the national anthem in support of the protests back home.
