Have a slightly better excuse this week.

Yet again, pressure on Josh. I know I've been critical of him but he needs help.

No pressure Josh. So the defense looks horrific, keep it simple and don't force anything.

Spraining his neck when shaking his head at our 3rd Down and long calls?

We need to pay Poyer. However we do it, we need to pay him.

The bye seems to have mucked us up on both sides of the ball.

What is it with us and 3rd Down? I mean, how can we not be learning?

This is my calmest point of the week. So what if we lose? It's a game played by people who are financially set for life. The world doesn't end in a defeat - it should be fun and entertaining. Do I retain these thoughts mid-game? After the game? For the rest of the week? No. Not one bit.

Ah, sorry, misread!

We've won a toss? Is this a sign of the apocalypse?

Thought it was worth mentioning on the thread considering something was brought up and this thread has made 49 pages of empty speculation. In a way, I'd be unhappy if there wasn't a bit of tension at OBD after the manner we lost the last two games. As long as we pull together now. Sorry, won't bring that up again.

I think Foxborough is synthetic too? So he won't play against the Lions, at the Patriots or at home against the Jets or Dolphins. Believe Soldier Field is grass so, if the assumption is correct, we won't be seeing him suit up until Christmas Eve at the earliest.

Only reporting from what someone posted on the Game Day thread; I missed it. Though they didn't mention the synthetic turf bit on OBD - that was someone else. Sorry, mashed what was reported together.

I think I'm right in saying that they basically claimed that medical opinion is that White is ready to play and the coaches want to start him. White doesn't feel ready, rumours being he has concerns about his knee on synthetic pitches. From what I understand, everything said by Wood and Brown is cleared by OBD, so the assumption is they are happy for them to say White needs to get out of his head and turn up for the team.

Please sling it to a Bill, please sling it to a Bill, please sling it to a Bill...

We should be 8-1 right now. I can accept the bizarre circumstances in Miami resulting in a defeat but we gifted victories to the Jets and the Vikings through simple errors. On the face of it, being a position where we're more likely to beat ourselves than the opposition is not a bad thing but we're running out of time to sort it out.

That or he needs to retire. No other team will pick a player who can only play certain games on a whim. Edit: Just seen someone else say this too.

Internal issues surrounding White, considering how Eric Wood and Chris Brown have reportedly laid into him?

Just before the Bills annouced him as inactive again as well. Turning up the heat for Thanksgiving?

Newsome was the one who caught my eye, but not to the level of no White, Edmunds or Hyde.

Don't think they're missing anyone of note there?

Are we certain it's down to Tre why he isn't out there and not the coaches being overly cautious?

To me, despite my criticism of him, Josh is the reason our offence is the statistically the best, or one of the best, in the NFL. I think Mahomes is the only other QB currently playing who'd have a chance of getting something good out of it and, even then, I think he's behind a better O Line in Kansas. Put any other QB behind that O Line with these receivers and we'd be a hot(ter) mess right now.

The last time we lost three games in a row was 2018, up to now the last season where we failed to make the play offs. We did lose three in a row in 2017 but made the post season. I'm not sure if 10-7 is going to cut it this year; 9-8 almost certainly isn't.
