The Red King

We need this.

Okay, run it more doesn't mean only run it. Can you actually mix pass and run?

No adjustments. They look lost out there, both sides of the ball.

That was disgusting.

Josh is getting impatient. He's gotta settle. He's looking too hard for the deep ball.

We needed that!

So...many...blown...tackles. >.<

This team needs to wake up and get their heads in the game.

Don't like the coaching on both sides of the ball turtling up. That's not the Bills.

Ugh. Pushed him out. Tackle drills this week? Then a hole you can drive a truck through. Gotta adjust at halftime.

More Jets have gone down today.

Was that a chop block?

He's short. Helmet made it, ball not quite. He did have it, but got greedy. Poor situational awareness.

Wrong Josh? 🤔

Liked seeing Allen choosing the checkdown there. You *know* he was looking for the airstrike there.

What kind of camera view was that?

Well, he got crushed right away. Surprised he got the pass off.

Have loved chess since I was a kid. I made my first set by drawing pieces on paper and taping them onto checkers in a (successful) bid to guilt my dad into buying a real chess set. Also had a fascination with red chess pieces as a historically alternate color. Even more so after reading "Alice Through the Looking Glass" with the Red Queen. Was originally going to roll with "The Red Knight", but that seemed cliche as all heck, so I went with "The Red King". By the time I realized the name might come off as arrogant, it was too late, it had already stuck. That's why my initial avatar here was a red crown (the typical symbol used in chess for the piece), but as noted above realized that could be seen as arrogant for anyone that missed the chess connection. So I swapped to my current one. Not the most exciting, but it works. If I do swap it in the future, it'll be for something equally clear.

I'd like to see a few more this weekend. Not blitz-crazy, but just enough to keep him from getting comfortable. Leads to more downs when he's sweating bullets wondering if the heat is coming this time.

Didn't the Bengals thump the Dolphins on Prime Time earlier this season?

To be fair, ours is melting down atm, and we won by 10, so...

Aren't you just a ray of sunshine after Buffalo improves to 6-1?

6-1 with wins over the other three current division leaders and a 1 1/2 game lead for the division title and #1 spot in the AFC. Yep, time to sound the panic alarms and talk about how they are underachieving. KC lost to Indy! If we're that bad, KC must be in a horrific free-fall right now.

So, you agree there is an upper limit to what we should spend on a player and not just "whatever it takes". I didn't have to make my point. I baited you into making it for me.

Remember when KC had that terrible game against Indy this season, lost even, and how that one bad performance exposed them and led to a spiralling string of losses? No? Wait. You mean they learned from it, and bounced right back and are still considered a top five team? Imagine that...
