This is actually a worry of mine. Bills finally make it back to the Super Bowl and the day before...Allen tests positive and Buffalo heads into the game with Trubisky at QB. 😬

Fair point about the physical nature, however a lot of teams are pretty physical in the playoffs. Add in teams like the Pats and Chiefs that play dirty on top of it. The Titans are pretty physical as well. Other than the Chargers and Bengals there aren't many finesse type teams in top of the AFC. I like your thought.

Am I the only one that's WANTS Indy in Round 1? It's really hard to punch a team in the mouth twice in a season. I am pretty sure we get Indy that defense will play out of it's mind. And beating the team that curb stomped you not long before is a HUGE confidence booster going forward at just the right time.

I have the Bills going to 3. Cincy has 2 games that will be tough. New England in the 6.

Except it's not "the truth". It's an idiotic narrative. Every single year the "they didn't beat anyone good" narrative gets thrown around. Have you noticed this year that there really are very few dominate teams? Have you possibly noticed how many times this year a "bad team" has obliterated a "good team"? To be on the winning side of and NFL game 8 weeks in a row is a huge accomplishment. Reading here I have seen that Tua is terrible, Flores is awful. They have no offensive line and nothing at RB. And yet SOMEHOW this assembley of horrid coaches and players has lined up for 8 straight games and won. The logic is so far off it's head spinning. If the Dolphins win out, Flores is a CoY candidate. What they have done and how they have finished after a 1-7 start is impressive.

With all these offensive line injuries throughout the league it makes me wonder whatever happened to La'Adrian Waddle. Guy went from maybe pushing for a starting spot here to put of the leage fast. 1 injury here and BOOM. Gone for 2 years.

I remember seeing in the game week discussion thread a tweet from one of the Boston guys saying they thougjt Belichick was sick.

This is who they are. Names and jersey numbers included. You're welcome. https://www.nfl.com/teams/buffalo-bills/roster

Bengals beating the Chiefs is one of my upset specials coming up. And I'd say the Browns drop 1 of 2 to the Steelers or Bengals because divisional games do that often.

Somewhere in Kansas City, Kermit laughs at this thread.

I always think of him as more quick than fast. Would still love for Buffalo to have a big time deep threat.

I mean, if she doesn't know the difference between an offside, encroachment and false start I doubt she has the backround to break down a DPI.

I am expecting the Saints to have a letdown after shutting out the Bucs last week. Plus I need Waddle to get me 22 points for my fantasy playoff game...😂😂

Lots of people said we had no way to win with our COVID issues. Sometimes things like this happens and teams find new things that worked almost by accident.

Yes...good was literally the word I used.

One thing that I come away with from yesterday is this... Perhaps the fact that both Beasley (who was good but nothing super special in Dallas) and McK both having success in the slot in this offense has a bit to do with the scheme. This is an offense that is rooted in the same philosophy that the Pats ran with Welker/Edelman and sometimes Troy Brown before that, I believe in the slot...with tweaks of course. Now I'm not saying neither player has talent and it's all on scheme. They do each bring something special to the spot (McK-speed; Beasley precision). Daboll uses them somewhat in different ways. Love that with McK out there it adds the jet sweep possibilities. Bottom line is if McKenzie doesn't resign and Beasley is a cap cut...I think there are other guys that could flourish in the system.

I always like the one where he stiff armed Van Noy last year against the Dolphins and dropped him right on his arse.

So, build the dome?

Well, then take the Marlins. They should be good for a 4th match birdie.

They had Mike Davis as their lead back to start the year. Struck gold with Patterson playing well as a duel threat runner/receiver. Their rookie TE Pitts was just starting to find his footing when Ridley walked away from the game. The result is this. Because Ridley left there is no outside threat at WR. A couple guys that would be #2 or 3 receivers. Teams bracket cover Pitts, take him basically out. It's led to them overusing Patterson and his plays becoming predictable. His body is also looking worn out at this point in the season. He's good for a short TD run a game at this point. Ryan has lost a step or 2 but is still a solid and consistent starter.

The flag had nothing to do with the Initial Contact. It was 100% what had appeared to be a pull down 4-5 yards out of bounds. Which most times will result in a flag. I also heard Davis acknowledge that he looked to be trying to help Jones up and that his only questions past that was "Why take the chance and put your hands on him out of bounds like that?". However, in a bang-bang play humans are more imclu ed to try and help people not get hurt...which is what Hughes reacted to. It's one of those plays where, yup his intent was good and shouldn't have been flagged....however it would have been understandable had the call went against us.

Not only 18 game season but extended playoffs as well. For some teams that could be up to 3 extra games a year from what it was last season.

The issue with these micro sized slot guys as that they are constantly dinged up. Opportunities will present themselves for both to see snaps the rest of the year.

From what they showed yesterday it looked like a hammy or groin tweak. Add in what looked to be a shoulder issue after the suplex yesterday. Diggs is a tough dude, though. Gonna take quite a lot (injury wise) to keep him from playing the next 2 weeks. (And playoffs)
