Cover 1? Seriously? One deep safety and that's all?

Every game I have watched of him this year I have seen EASY dropped interceptions. Kind of blew my mind.

Yeah. I'm thinking he is a tad bit unqualified, but that's just me...

The same

Is this serious...?

Josh Allen and Tre White were both concussed and played the very next week. Happens all the time.

Haha. I love that they included Bill Belichick breaking the phone in that hype video.

Well, "some in the league" disagree with you.

I think Tampa Bay is significantly less impressive than the other three. But that's just me. They lost to the Bears and had some near misses against some other lackluster teams.

That may be true or it may not. Regardless, Mahomes is in Stage 4 because he practiced Wednesday. So in this instance he has been on the same trajectory as Allen was with his concussion. And Tre White when he entered the protocol after getting elbow dropped by Gronk a few years ago. Tre played the next game. I'm personally not sure why some people are thinking this is a conspiracy. Players get through the protocol in one week all the time. Many don't, for sure, but many do.

That's not how the brain works. Each concussion is completely unique and cannot be compared to each other. And regardless, Mahomes may have ALSO have the pinched nerve thing contributing to everything. And even if it was more severe, that doesn't mean that he can't recover quickly from it. Each recovery is different.

I'm guessing you talked about finally getting a real coach when you hired Gase as well.

I'm not sure that matters, though. It comes down to getting back to your baseline stats. And Allen is a tough SOB.

Allen got knocked out of the Patriots game his second season with a concussion and was practicing by Wednesday a couple days later and he played the next game. Mahomes is in the concussion protocol. People can say whatever they want about the injury, but it is a fact that he is in the protocol. And it appears he is in stage 4. He will have to be cleared by an independent neurologist. And if he plays, that means he was cleared. And there are countless examples of players who played the next week after a concussion. If he practiced Wednesday he was in stage 4 already. If it's one per day that means he had to pass stage 1 on Sunday and be on stage 2 already by Monday. I'm not sure how it works, but that does seem plausible.

Someone should have told Saban how horrible our offensive line was when he was here. The line was much better before he got here and then quickly got better after he left, with some of the same guys on the line through it all. My biggest issue with him was not that he opted out and left (I was happy about that) but that the TWO things he was supposed to bring to this team, good oline coaching and good offense, were the two biggest weaknesses of the team. Plus he just seemed like an idiot.

Heck yeah! I'm certain the Bills players have seen this and are getting angry already. This will motivate them. They'll also see all the experts picking the Chiefs to win. The closer the game gets, the more confident I'm getting that the Bills will win. It's a strange, irrational feeling I'm not used to, but they are the team of destiny, after all.

For sure he has used it less. It's also to create mismatches in coverage (getting a LB on a WR, for instance), cause deception, and to help playmakers gain speed before the snap.

Because Marrone isn't qualified to be a coordinator. And yet he somehow became an NFL head coach...

That's not my logic at all. I said we have to wait to see just how big of a play it was. Clearly it is already a big play.

Ford is on his rookie deal. No reason to trade him.

I think we have to see how the season ends to see just how impactful Johnson's play really was. If we go on to win the superbowl, it has to be up there with some of the most impactful plays in franchise history. I'm hoping this week we have another play or two that will go down in Bills history.

I don't think I've ever used the term myself, and I don't really plan to. But I have no issue with it. Seems like the national media really love using the term.

How many times have fans said this throughout the season? So far it hasn't been true. The Bills got to the AFC Championship game without a run game. They can win the superbowl without a run game. Eventually, yes. They will need to address it. But its not going to happen this year. The Bills are who they are by this point.

I would like Mahomes to play. I think an Allen vs Mahomes showdown in the playoffs with all the chips down would be great entertainment.

Oh, he still likes the Bills. He used to come on the John Murphy Show and later One Bills Live all the time. But I'm sure he likes the Steelers too. There's no reason he can't like both teams.
