McD should get more involved with the D during the practice week, but not fully take over. McD still needs to concentrate on game manangement. McD should get more involved with the Special Teams and verify each week that they have practiced for all contingencies. The Special Teams seem to get surprised way too often. Even things like counting players on the field has been a problem.

... and at halftime I put my Bills Santa hat on top of my regular Bills game day cap! The double hat really helped the defense. You're Welcome!

When the Bills are good and the Pats* are down, they are still a pain in the ass to beat at times. Note to Bills: Never, EVER wear those Uni’s again. Same color /style as the 1960’s, 70’s, most of 80’s Patsies. Terrible. We won and I hate the Pats*. I always have since the days of Gino Capaletti, Babe Parelli, and Jim Nance.

Rams played out of their heads last week. Sure, weather is a factor today, but last week they were already at “must win” on the season, and half of their stadium was Bills Mafia. They rose up. Tonight they look average.

The league does.

The Bills beating the Chiefs has been the game of the year so far.

Great coach. This is my favorite version of the team so far.

I helped an immigrant woman and her young daughter jump start their car in a parking lot. Said goodbye with a “Go Bills”. I think they understood it, I pointed at my Bills decal.

What an excellent Bills Braintrust. McD knowing exactly what he needs. Scouts doing their jobs. Another excellent pick by Beane. Followed by the coaching and development to get him ready. On top of that he fits the team culture.

Or score on another play, or run the entire clock out.

RIP Coach.

It is relevant. The Bills purposely played light against the run to help contain passes and big plays. The thinking is they sacrifice run support to cover Tua and his receivers and take away big plays. They stuck with it. If the DL makes more plays they could have fared better against the rum, but they did not put more in the box. They were determined to stop big pass plays. The Bills won, and had a TD called back on a phantom holding, and another TD dropped which became an interception at the 2 yard line. Their overall strategy worked with some margin for error, which they needed.

Milano coming back will move Williams to the bench and ST. I don’t see anyone moving Damar out unless we get a player before the deadline.

Worst case is they don’t make it and they never get the ball back.

Don't forget that Dallas game on Thanksgiving. We took over the stadium and then ate all their turkey.

I'm looking for Miami to show up with a decent effort but the Bills will put in the work this week and get the job done at home. Things seem to going well within the Bills team and Miami is in disarray. The Bills have experience and good leadership, they set high expectations, and they are doing what it takes to meet their goals.

I was there too. Roland Hooks. That was an excellent team. A Chuck Knox Super Bowl Team.

Dunaeay as a fine player, but Paul McGuire’s stories, and those of the late Larry Felser, will both point to Sestak as the most dominate defensive player on those Bill AFL Championships Teams. As will his official status as First Team All AFL. Sestak is rated first team ahead of the great Buck Buchanan, who is in Canton for his NFL career. Timing is the only thing Sestak was missing. Sestak never played an NFL game due to knee.injuries.

I think Beane might have hit a home run.

Perfect screen pass. Wow.

Coverage interception.

So glad that Diggs is gone.

After one game it sure looks like Cooper will help this team and open things up for other players on offense. It is a team game, and chemistry is important.

Any info on Bernard?

It will take Cooper about 4-5 games to really get comfortable in the offense, but his presence will help us immediately because teams have to account for him. Right now we are still favorites for the AFCE. If we can stay healthy, and Cooper fits in, and Miller continues to help us, and we get Milano back - we could make some noise in the post season. It will come down to peaking in the last two months, don't count this team out.
