Presently, JA has the highest passer rating in playoff history at 106.6. He stands above Mahomes, Bart Starr, Kurt Warner and everyone else. OP, does this settle the matter for you? Or perhaps you have a more specific issue to address?

Is this for me? If so, you have to watch ND40 to understand the reference. In the specific scene, it's about two players who understand the brutality of the game, and have decided to respond with needles/drugs vice strength training. Strongly recommend this movie to anyone on the thread. Has many metaphors & parables, even beyond the game itself.

Every time I see these team workout montages, I think of North Dallas Forty.

As an aside, SoF medics use K as post-wound analgesic, while regular Army and USMC still use fentanyl lollipops or similar (someone can correct me if I'm wrong). Bottom line: K is some serious s**t, and I suspect there's some FL veterinarian shaking in his/her boots right now.

Can't. Stop. Watching. Help

Lindy Ruff still has a house here and, until recently, so did Kurt Schulz. So we got that going for us.

This. Very underated part of his game.

Will no one rid us of this meddlesome qb?

Maybe he's a friend/fan of Kurt Schultz...very good guy, btw.

Preach brother. I want heads on pikes. F***king heads on pikes!!

OL protection as a "cocoon of love". Brilliant.

X factor: bring in Marv pre-game for some Churchillian D-Day speech that will set the troops afire. Like: God almighty, in a few short hours we will be in battle with the enemy. We do not join battle afraid. We do not ask favours or indulgence but ask that, if you will, use us as your instrument for the right... -- Wolverton, CO, 1/506 PIR

I'll be drinking tequila. Uno, dos, tres, catorce.

Just give me Gus Johnson and xyz... I'll be pretty happy, regardless of the game I'm watching.

Side note: Bills are 4th in league w a 46.57% win rate on 3rd down. Last year, 46.64%. Clearly then, our third down O has fallen off the cliff.

Holy crap... can't believe this hasn't gotten more national run. Thx for posting.

My call sign in Iz and Afg (elsewhere it was AnvilMike6...too hard to explain). Anyway, comes from "Backstreets"... Where desperate lovers park they sat with the last of the Dukestreet Kings. I hadn't been able to follow a full season since 2001 as I was always somewhere else, so to speak. As soon as I knew that part of life was over, I joined the board in Oct 2019 but kept the call sign to remind me of the fallen.

About 4 drinks in and, as predicted, I am going ape sh*t.

Or, hopefully, I'm going ape-s right along with you RR.

Got a bottle of Milagro silver TQ for Christmas. Cracking in 3, 2, 1...

I agree w all your posts and sentiment...but we only have 3 games left, so DS will need to avg 126y/g.

65 Toss Power Trap. Yaahhh!!!

Fair point. Imho, I actually thought TB* was trying to throw OoB w maybe a little 50-50 ball thrown in. I would guess 80-20 former over the latter. If it was the latter, however, then that was one of the most ridiculously skilled passes I've ever seen. Back foot, clutch, defender-in-his-grill type throws.

The most poignant, meaningful image of this game: JA on the bench, post-Knox TD, his injured, bare foot propped up by his own helmet. Trainers scurrying about trying to tape it up. But Josh is paying them zero attention, not grimacing or showing any signs of concern. Instead, he is utterly focused on the Surface images from the prior series, as he stoically prepares for his next go on the field. Jesus, if we had just one more guy like this, sky is the limit for this team.
