Foot on the pedal, never ever false metal Engine running hotter than a boiling kettle My job ain't a job, it's a damn good time City to city, I'm running my rhymes On location, touring around the nation Beastie Boys always on vacation Itchy trigger finger, but a stable turntable I do what I do best because I'm illing and able Ain't no faking, your money I'm taking Going coast to coast watch all the girlies shaking While you're at the job working nine-to-five The Beastie Boys at the Garden cold kicking it live

If you could see me here this way Looking backwards from today Would you do it all again? If I could roll it back to you Just like lovers always do I'm stoned in love but not with you Good luck, 'cause we're not feeling stoned in love It's how I'm feeling now I feel the love is made of stone We're not feeling stoned in love Good luck, 'cause we're not feeling stoned in love It's how I'm feeling now I feel the love is made of stone We're not feeling stoned in love

Love me, love me Say that you love me Fool me, fool me Go on and fool me Love me, love me Pretend that you love me Leave me, leave me Just say that you need me So I cry and I beg for you to Love me, love me Say that you love me Leave me, leave me Just say that you need me I can't care about anything but you

Truth, this is after putting up 3 points in the first last week. Lots to unpack over the bye, and I've given up hope they're keeping the good stuff on wraps. It's a week to week league, get back to winning the week. I have no choice but to have faith in TPTB. Unless this is Dorsey redux and the crew mutinies. I love Cook's emotion. He signed this big contract and he still wants more. He wants to win, and he knows for the Bills to have any hope of that he has to be a big part. I am hoping Beane, McDermott, and Allen have a heart to heart while coming to Jesus moment and they go all in and made a big move, f'k them #1 picks, whatever it takes (Rogers looking at Stark... whatever it takes).

For me, it's the meta strategy that starts with McD. I get what he's trying to do, but its protect the defense, so possess the f out of the ball and punish their defense with cumulative clock killing offensive series that last like 5+ minutes. We choke the f out of them and win on our terms. The issue is we seem to gameplan around scoring on each possession, and when we don't, we run out of possessions. Do we have a gear for score quick? It seemed like we had the 2-minute killer instinct in weeks 1-4, but was it all a mirage and a function of lesser opposition? In Brady's defense, we don't seem to have much offensive firepower outside of Allen and Cook. Kincaid was trending up but is hurt, and Shakir's a nice piece who can't dominate a game by himself. I've seen this kind of defensive strategy against the Bills during the drought: play us straight up and dare us to beat them, because we can't win 1 on 1s. Allen's getting blitzed regularly as word is out on the street that teams don't fear "someone beating us deep". I'm still hoping and praying that as flawed as we are, so is everyone else, and we're getting our wtf stretch out of the way early.

Have to agree with you. Bernard has been my guy and when he's on he's one of our best "splash" players. But between him and Milano, it's the same thing, always, and we end up being shorthanded and having to figure it out with what's left. A damn shame.

At this risk of being unacceptably positive, the last time the Bills really had their backs against the wall (end of '23) after that Eagles loss and the Dunne article... they played like their hair was on fire the rest of the way. It's early and we're flawed but so is everyone else! amirite? I do get bad vibes if the head coach and offensive stars are souring on the o-coord, publicly.

Memories back when she was bold and strong And waiting for the world to come along... Swears she knew it, now she swears he's gone She lies and says she's in love with him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... She lies and says she still loves him, can't find a better man... She dreams in color, she dreams in red, can't find a better man... Can't find a better man Can't find a better man

Man Thompson was gone for 7. one of those nights

Forever and ever A torch in search of a flame To be good, get better I'll change by staying the same Forever and ever A night in search of a day As anxious as ever It gets so, dark, dark, dark Shine a light my way Shine a light my way Having such a dark, dark, dark, dark Saturday Shine a light my way

I could be the one, or your new addiction It's all in my head but I want non-fiction I don't want the world, but I'll take this city Who can blame a girl? Call me hot, not pretty Baby, do you like this beat? (Na-na, na-na) I made it so you'd dance with me (na-na, na-na) It's like a hundred ninety-nine degrees (na-na, na-na) When you're doing it with me, doing it with me

Abel, come on, give me the keys, man Everything has all gone down wrong Abel, come on, give me the keys, man Everything has all gone down wrong I see water on the bridge Well, you better hold my hand through this Turn around, turn around, take me back I can't calm down Turn around, turn around, take me back I can't calm down

So you lost your trust And you never should have And you never should have But don't break your back If you ever see this But don't answer that In a bulletproof vest With the windows all closed I'll be doing my best I'll see you soon In a telescope lens And when all you want is friends I'll see you soon

It hurts to turn the radio on My stamina's gone My spirit is weak Because every time I start to move on Keep hearing that song I'm brought to my knees To permanently see in reverse Take the remorse out of defeat Because everything that's under my skin Where I end and begin Still belongs to me

Drought level ineptitude on offense, except we have Josh Allen, James Cook, and one of the best offensive lines in the NFL. The penalties were atrocious, totally playing down to an opponent and letting them make a game out of it. When we lose tough games comparisons with the drought get thrown out casually (I am the worst offender) but this was "it". 3 points in the first half, with a stacked roster (game changing boundary WR notwithstanding). It had the drought ending where the defense, who had been derided going in to the game, played well enough to keep us in the game in the first half. And then couldn't make a stop when we needed it at the end. Particularly egregious was the third down escape by Maye where he made a Josh Allen style play: falling down and still enough arm strength to get it to Diggs who played his mind out in his revenge game. Josh made some questionable decisions, and was getting smoked for good portions of the game. It was all there, driven into turf on his right side, the classic head bounce off the turf for good measure a couple times as well. Rousseau and Epenesa had great first halves in particular, and both made some plays in the second half. Kincaid had a nice game, although he also took some hits to the head. Keon had some good plays but all you remember later is that damn fumble. Cook looked like he was almost ready to break some huge runs but it never happened. Tell me if you've seen this movie before: a Mike Vrabel team out-physicals the Bills. I don't know if it's because the Patriots were treating this like their Super Bowl and we were looking past them. I hope that's the answer. I know there's structural issues with this team, but there is no perfect team in the NFL (no, not the Colts). We're still one of the elite. But really hoping this is one of those bilp games we have every year. And truth be told, putting all those division titles aside during the Josh era, we've "done this" before. You know, where the Bills inexplicably lose to an allegedly, vastly inferior division opponent. It's happened to Saleh's Jets (twice), McDaniels Phins (the second game last year required a career highlight by Bass), and a Mac Jones lead Pats squad. Onto the Falcons, I guess.
