The Browns and Chiefs have already scheduled Top-30 visits with the assailants.

Absence makes the heart grow fonder. I can't believe how many people forget how frustrating he was here. Would frequently abandon the run. Wayyyyyy to many "cute" play calls. This would be like someone going back to their ex because they are going through a dry spell....only to remember EXACTLY why she's your ex to begin with

That was a big risk. I also think they severely overestimated what Joshua Palmer would bring to the offense. To their credit they look to be right on Kincaid improving when healthy because he's looked awesome when remotely healthy. The caveat there of course being he hasn't stayed healthy. The only pass play where I felt like we got em was the 4th and 27 hook and ladder. That was really some stuff our defense would give up on that spot. Also, it's hard to call designed runs for Allen when Houston did what they did. They kept amazing gap integrity. They didn't rush Allen as much as walk the pocket back into his lap. And they knew they had time because our guys couldn't get open. I know people are going to knee jerk react to what I'm about to say here. You're spot on. He's not the same with his mobility as he used to be. I know people want to point at Brady and McDermott, but Allen himself is most to blame here. It's his body and he knows how he feels. When he does run, he never has had what I would call a light running style. Even going back to Wyoming....hits have started adding up. It likely takes him a lot longer to heal than it used to. I think physically, we are closer to the end of his mobility than most of us realize. Several times this year Allen has set personal records for most time from snap to throw. Houston is an extreme case...by he's having to hold the ball longer because...wait for it....no one can get open. And Brady makes the issue worse by calling long developing mesh concepts. Now, mesh is great because it is what we wanted...see the scheme get people open. But they didn't have the time for that Thursday.

He was running for his life. Literally. He didn't have time to set his feet and throw before the pressure was in on him.

Ah that's right. The robbers are their super fans. My bad all. That's...that one's on me.

Robbery seems more like a Chiefs prerequisite.

Classy move from a vet player if done on purpose.

Approximate Dead Cap hits if traded: Dawkins: $27M Oliver: $21.5M Shakir: $14.7M Around $63M in dead cap to trade these three you mentioned. Not to mention we are scheduled to have dead cap hits next year for: Milano: $11M Bosa: $7M Plus a few others. Oh, and we only have like 45 players under contract for next year as it is. We are looking north of $22M in dead cap next year to comply with void years. So in your plan we take on around $85M in dead cap, and have to fill about 10-12 spots on the roster with league minimum guys. Plus have money for draft picks, a practice squad and replenish the roster in season due to injury. How are you fielding a team?

If I was in charge I would remove Mr. Brightside from the stadium playlist. I would replace it with Jelly Roll's "I am Not Ok".

If Tony Danza isn't in it I'm out.

Knox will not be here under his current cap hit. He will either likely have to take a pay cut or be gone. Samuel likely won't be here either. Yes, next off season should be defense heavy. If you have seen them play you know why. Luckily, on offense, we really just need to restock the WR room. Beane is going to have to find a trade because the FA WR class is terrible.

I've long said if they want to play Thursday games they should schedule teams that are coming off a bye week.

Honestly, I like many used to let the outcome of the Bills game play way too far into my mental well being. Weeks they lost I was a complete ass. The drought was a fun time to be around me. My "Come to Jesus" with sports came after 13 seconds. Man, I literally didn't sleep for three days. Got in a real bad mental headspace. Then slowly I would start to see things. Mainly, the players that actually played in that game in Instagram photos, out to dinner all smiles. Heading on nice tropical vacations. Not bothered at all. That helped me refocus from gameday being all about that dub, to being all about time with my wife, kids, other family and friends that are around. The game is on and I'm still invested...but it's just different now. Once the game ends, my emotional tie to that game ends. I was over last night's loss before the players even exchanged jerseys, did the joint prayer and shook hands. That's actually somewhat poetic considering the overall history of this franchise.

Lost in the loss: My word Cole Bishop is easily the most improved guy on the roster. A year ago he looked like a random fan got lost on the way back to their seat and was just wandering around the secondary. This year? I have him as our best player on that side of the ball. His hustle is amazing. He either makes the play or is right there when it happens. Is he perfect? Of course not. But he looks like an entirely new player this season.

This season, home teams are 9-3 on Thursday Night Football. The three away teams that won: Seattle beat Arizona by 3 49ers beat the Rams by 3 Ravens beat the Dolphins by 22. Thursday is quirky, too. Remember earlier this year watching the Burrow-less Bengals beat the Steelers. Or the Giants pasting the Eagles by 17.

Acho is an amazingly annoying and abrasive sports personality. However, I give the guy his due. He is elite at these film breakdowns. He's really good at breaking things down with NFL level knowledge and presenting it to fans. It's totally worth the 10 and half minute watch.

Agree. He was a as great of a running back as he was as terrible a human being. He was a bit before my time but I've seen a lot of his film.

That's on par with our oline last night that allowed the Texans DL to pass right on by.

Absolutely. I saw today that Buffalo is projected at pick 22. Still a lot of football left and if we make the playoffs that could go up to the high 20s... But it could go lower too with the schedule we have. Would be a good year for Beane to move up the board a considerable amount for an Elite WR.

Lost in the shuffle of the crud fest that was last night, James Cook has broken 1,000 rushing yards with 6 games still to go. He becomes just the third Buffalo RB with over 1,000 rushing yards in 3 straight seasons joining 2 HoF running backs in 32 and Thurman Thomas. He also has the opportunity to become just the second Buffalo Bill ever to hit 1,500 rushing yards in a season. The only other Bill to do it was, of course, he whom shall not be named who did it in 3 different seasons. The next closest was Thurman Thomas's 1992 season where he came up just shy at 1,487 rushing yards.

Yeah, we already have a WR with the "missing meetings" skillset.

Plenty of room on IR for him!

If it means more Shaq that isn't a bad thing from an on field standpoint. Brown being down would really hurt the run game. Torrence is going to suffer not having Brown next to him as well We still have 6 games left until the playoffs begin. With all the guys out long term, even if we make it we would be fortunate to be more than 1 and done IMO.

Marcus West. Easily found if you Google it.

I think we are at the point where we need to ask Josh what he wants and do the opposite. It's clearly the "Costanza Paradox" in play. I think it has more to do with the steady decline in WR talent than Daboll. Going from Diggs->Beasley->Brown-Gabe to Gabe->Palmer-> Shavers -> Shakir is a noticable drop in talent.
