  1. It’s why the Pro Bowl vote is so utterly stupid, and even Fins fans are seeing it now. Take Davis (which he was for some of the game) and Cook out of the Bills offense - does Josh struggle to the same extent as Tua did last night? No. Nine times out of 10 he finds a way to at least put the Bills in a winning position late on.

    ...there's no way this could happen otherwise,   I retract my comments in other threads defending how that is not possible based on macro-level idealized outcomes
     

     


    I was watching the 49ers rolling at the end of their game against the Rams. Any points for San Francisco would mean the Rams would go to Dallas and the Packers to Detroit. I thought to myself “The league would prefer the 49ers to lose this one…”, and Darnold then made an inexplicable fumble on 2nd and 10, when he could and should have protected the ball.

     

    I don’t think the league is rigged. But it is fortunate for them that such a bizarre play was made at an important time.

  3. I think I’d be more confident playing the Fins again (even that’d mean yesterday was a loss) in Miami than Pittsburgh at home for this reason. The wind game of 2021 looms large and Pittsburgh have both a better run game and defense, even without Watt, than the Pats did. Admittedly, the Bills run game has been better, particularly since Brady took over, but it struggled yesterday. If the Bills lose the turnover the battle, they lose the game.

    One of the few measured responses from WGR.

     

    (paraphrasing)

     

    ”Conventionally you throw the ball inside”

     

    “Traditionally that’s on the QB”

     

    ”Bit we’ve seen this miscommunication between these two a lot. Unsure it’s on Josh or Gabe. But most would say the QB on individual plays”

     

    Josh was 90% good tonight which rocks. But the 10% he was off wasn’t missing a 3rd down it was head scratchers.


    If we win a SB it’s because he’s amazing.

     

    If we lose it will be something like him being 34/40 2TD and 2INT in FG range and lose by 3.

     

    I love Josh. He’s the best thing to happen to this franchise but he also keeps me up at night. 


    On the third quote, my response would be why do we only seem to see it happen between Josh and Davis? Doesn’t seem to be an issue with anyone other receiver.

    49ers aside, the home schedule looks pretty nice. The away though… cannot afford to lose at Met Life or Foxbrough next year.

     

    Have they replaced the turf in Detroit or is it still the same sort which took out Von?

    He shouldn’t be satisfied. Because he did hurt the team, badly.


    I think we have to accept this version of Josh - at least until the close season. Then I hope we see him back with Palmer again. But for now the best thing to do is let him be himself and hope the chips fall into place. Trying to change him now will just make things worse; see the run post Dolphins at OP to the sacking of Dorsey.

    The New York nfl offices must be ecstatic right now

     

    they are about to get

     

    GB at Dallas

    LA at Detroit  (stafford vs goff trade game)

     

    Potential 

     

    Pitt at Buff 

    Miami at KC

     

    or

     

    Buff at miami

    Pitt at KC

     

    I bet Rams at Detroit starts the weekend off

     

    Think Browns at Texans will get the late Saturday afternoon slot, with Rams at Lions following. Bills at Steelers could be Sunday early, followed by Eagles at Bucs then Packers and Cowboys on Sunday night with Dolphins at Chiefs on Monday.

     

    Not sure what they'll do if it's Bills at Dolphins, considering it'd have just had the Sunday night slot. Guess it'll slightly depend on how tonight's game goes.

    Packers are going to get it done, eliminating the Seahawks and Saints.  Now the only NFC question is whether the Rams will win for the 6 seed or lose for the 7 seed.

     

    And the Rams have just taken the lead over the 49ers. If the scores stand then Stafford returns to Detroit, whilst the Packers go to the Cowboys.

     

    Edit: Packers have sealed the win over the Bears with a 1st Down and locked up a Wildcard place.

  9. The Dolphins probably won't be as banged up next week. Let's get the second seed.

    Thanks to the Titans, my entire outlook on tonight change:

     

    I think the bills win by 20+ with the pressure being about 4.3 billion times lower. 
    I’ll be able to eat. 
    I will still hate if they lose, but I think we’re 10 point favorites in Pitts if that happens. 
     

    Go bills. 

     

    If the Bills lose they're back in Miami for the wildcard.

    What does the 5-7 nfc wild card picture look like? 

     

    Eagles or Cowboys will take five. Cowboys hold the upper hand over winning the East.

    The Rams are guaranteed a play off place; a win will secure sixth.

    If the Rams lose, the Packers will take six with a win, with the Rams dropping to seven.

    If the Packers lose, the Seahawks will take seven with a win. If they also lose, then the Saints will have it instead.
