Feels like almost both sides will be happy with 10-0 to the Bills considering how the game has panned out so far.

If we stick to the clutch then they'll just mark them out of the game. We need to trust those who have made errors. Get their confidence back and give us more options.

Both QBs have an INT against them but the difference between how the two played out is astronomical.

17 picks and won the Super Bowl. Wow.

The D walking back to the side glaring at McKenzie and Cook.

OK, seriously, get a grip. We should be storming down the field here. Instead... (Oddly, I feel calmer when we're mucking up)

I swear Knox used to be called Dropsome and now look at him. McKenzie made an error; it happens. They all will - more than once - this season.

Josh hasn't stopped being perfect. That was not on Josh.

Rubbish happens. Deep breath, let's regroup.

Josh did well in stepping forward into the sack, which mitigated the loss.

Pay the D back, O.

Think everyone would have said that at this stage of his career when we drafted him!

Come on, D!

I'll take that kind of boring. I love that kind of boring.

Beautiful start.

To who?

Any need for the 's'?

Me too. I know in three and a bit hours I won't be terrified. I'm hoping elation is the emotion which has taken over.

The Colts was the only game where both sides of the ball let us down. With the Steelers, Jaguars and Patriots the offense let us down as the defense did (at least) fine. With the Buccaneers, Titans and Chiefs, the defense let us down as the offense did (at least) fine.

Under McDermott: 2017: beat the Jets 21-12 2018: lost to the Ravens 47-3 2019: beat the Jets 17-16 2020: beat the Jets 27-17 2021: lost to the Steelers 23-16 If we win tonight it's the first time we've beaten someone other than the Jets in week one under McDermott.

Vey nervous. Almost expecting us to go into week seven with a 2-5 record, before going on a run of at least nine out of ten wins. A victory tonight would perhaps ease my nerves to a degree (until 19th September, that is).

We faced JAX too. Remind me how that went?

In fairness, 50 of Mahomes’ passing yards came in OT when Josh didn’t have a chance to take the field. Deduct them and it’s 329 & 68 with 4TDs vs 328 & 69 with 2TDs and a rushing TD. There’s a reason so many say the game was the height of QB brilliance, and neither deserved to lose. With Josh, the key this year will be to maintain the superb plays whilst raising the floor from last season. Jacksonville, Indianapolis, to an extent Pittsburgh, Atlanta when he was a brilliant at running but struggled to pass… Hopefully we have improved the O Line and running game from others to help him out. Get his passing percentage completion back to 2020 levels and we should top the AFC, all other things being equal. He has the potential to be the best QB to ever play the game - the talent is there.

Because the other option was a struggling Howard?

Heck no - we're still the Bills, even if we're one of the Super Bowl favourites. Did it help us last year?
