Forget the division and we never had a sniff of #1 seed after inexplicably losing to Atlanta and Miami. We can win from the #5 seed. Beating Pittsburgh in the WC round is doable. Then if we face NE or Jacksonville, we would be favored in the division round. Then I would like my chances with Denver or NE to get to the SB. The only team that would scare me would be the Texans if we had to play them in Houston.

Cam shouldn’t be here since2 years ago. Taron is just having a tough time with coverage and penalties this year. He might have some nagging injury but our depth is nowhere and he’s still the best option. I think he’ll have better games ahead.

If Knox could be as aggressive and productive as he was today, the mediocrity of our receivers would be elevated because all these TEs all make plays downfield. With Cook catching balls out of the backfield and three TEs being downfield options, the receivers will only need to combine for 120 yds to make our offense dynamic.

Kincaid is really good but he’s injured and unavailable a lot . I guess you have to roll the dice and give him another contract.

Slay is finished and Beane just wanted some low cost insurance. Take your championship ring and beg the team that dumped you to take you back. We don’t need washed DBs that don’t realize it’s a privilege to play for a team that can win it all every year.

The dominance of our O -line was mind blowing. This was done against a very talented defensive line and active LBs. If we can gracefully transition from Dion and give Brown a chance to get totally healthy, these O-linemen can make Cook’s explosion a regular occurrence. With Cook running wild giving our receivers single coverage, we can dominate time of possession and provide the framework for Josh to find a way against any AFC opponent. To me dominance of the O-line and the way we played the run with the emergence of Shaq Thompson is the key. Now I don’t expect our secondary to hold up against Burrow and those receivers but they won’t stop us either. I haven’t felt as confident all season as I do now. I don’t see any of our 5 remaining opponents, including NE, being favored over us.

The first year Cook is getting real carries he’s going to be 16 to 1800 yds. He had 16 TDs and over 1000 with only 200 carries last year and he’s always available. Our offense has been deigned around his ability. Gibbs shared carries with Montgomery and McCaffrey is great but he’s much older and lost 2 seasons with injury. The Pats RB is a rookie, enough said.

I think 1800 is reasonable. How much fun is he to watch? His personality is perfect for our team. When he had that devastating fumble that led to go ahead score, he came out and took the game over. Having him and Josh together for years to come give Bills fans a reason to believe we’re not far from a championship.

If Brown is not 100% than he should not play. Dawkins should be fazed out even if he is healthy. At this point he’s not effective enough to justify his undisciplined penalty riddled play. Let’s not delude ourselves with his overrated status, he almost got Josh killed in Houston with the 8 sacks and Anderson taking his lunch money.

Haven’t considered that since he’s underused period in the passing game. Brady is not imaginative enough to take advantage of his awesome skills that could easily be the difference between having a substandard receiving corps and a back that must be accounted for in the passing game, making every receiver better.

The way LBs and D-lineman abuse Josh like Queen and all the violent shots after he releases the ball, would you blame him. for protecting himself at the bottom of these scrums. Heyward is just an old bully that expects running QBs to just take punishment and like it. Did he apologize for Queen’s helmet to helmet cheap shot way after Josh gave himself up? Let Cam just worry about giving up 260 to a line with 2 backup tackles.

I love all of your 6 but Cook is the only one that looks like a threat to go all the way every time he gets to the 2nd level and also can get the edge with one cut and beat DBs around the corner with ease. Cook is a matchup nightmare in the passing game and if given the touches can be as prolific as CMC. Listen I’m an unapologetic homer, but between having a nose for the end zone and amassing 1500 yards if given the carries, Cook is #1 and we got him for as long as we can legally keep him. Last reason, he’s always available.

Top 5? Give me the other 4 after Taylor. Saquon got paid and is mostly a non-factor. The Eagles are offensively challenged because Barkley took a step back. McCaffrey is great but not the runner that Cook is. He’s terrific in the pass game but Cook would be also if given the touches. After that’s all of competition.

Nance and Romo kept warning we’d be releasing a monster in Heyward. Seems like the monsters were on our O- line and Brady and Josh felt the energy. By the way, how great is Cook?

We are seeing the best Joey Bosa in 5 years. He’s staying healthy and our best pass rusher. A real leader and a great signing by Beane.

Was that the reason Queen hit Allen helmet to helmet when he was down? Was Allen playing dirty when he dragged the whole Steelers defense five yards for the TD.? Was Heyward frustrated because Josh got a 1st down on every 3rd or 4th and short? Heyward looking to justify hitting Josh after the whistle. They lost Queen and TJ in that game. Bad karma, courtesy of Heyward.

Ascending? Could we have one of these ascending QBs win a playoff game. Just remember how great Stroud, Tua and Herbert looked in their 1st few years. You’re comparing these 3 generational QBs to players that haven’t been exposed to extensive film study or injuries. Greatness is not achieved in one regular season.

The song they should play at the beginning of the 4th qtr is “Brothers In Arms” by dire straits.

Sorry, missing the playoffs probably won’t do it. The Pegulas won’t start a whole new regime with the new stadium. He also knows in our division a new OC and a few FAs could do the trick with Josh as QB.

One more week rehab then put him on a snap count an increase it weekly. This is crunch time.

Give me a healthy Kincaid, Cooks and Shakir and I like our offense a lot better. I think Palmer and Coleman will benefit by a vertical threat. Finally, Beane has done something.

That’s right, Beane goes deep into the dumpster for Shaq Lawson. Always nice to add on an unemployed former Bill to fit under the cap. It’s beyond not constructing a roster, we can’t improve without using draft capitol. These additions are low percentage, low risk moves. Wake me up when Beane actually does something.

If Sean deserves to continue as HC after watching the tape of the Texan game and watching Dawkins futility and lack of effort, he should question his commitment, his ability and get him to play a big game against Pitt. If he gets dominated it’s on Sean.

Not only should Allen call most plays but they should go no huddle through large portions of the game, especially at home. This gives our receivers more ability to create separation and allow our embattled O-line to take advantage of rushers that are a little gassed. Naturally Brady can have input on certain down and distance and when we want to bleed clock things change.

Forget getting no sacks, he doesn’t even bat down throws. Extending him, wishing and hoping he fills out and becomes a penetrating force is emblematic of Beane’s futility as a GM. Throw in Bernard, Benford Rapp,Knox extensions and having Jones, Milano still on the roster playing injured or missing games. Beane takes the most expedient, low risk approach to management and that’s why we’re circling the drain, with no cap space, no receivers and a window that may be closing much sooner than expected.
