AJ Klein incoming...

Hate to say it but I don't think Benford has exactly lived up to his contract this season. Hairston looks promising though.

Still taking our best player off the field on 3rd and 4th down. Brady never learns

Takeo Spikes and Lawyer Milloy

I'd be ready to hang em up too if my coaches were telling me just hand the ball off and never throw 3 yards beyond the line of scrimmage.

I remember late in 2021 and early 2022, I would be shocked if the Bills didn't convert on a 3rd and long. Most of the time though they were converting on 1st or 2nd. The passing game was just that good. Nowadays it feels like a miracle if the Bills convert anything larger than 3rd and 2. Our offense needs to be more than just running Cook and throwing bubble screens to Shakir. It only takes a few weeks for teams to figure out how to shut those down....then what?

If our slow receivers can't get separation vs. dbs and safeties. How are our even slower TEs gonna get separation? In fact I think all these heavy packages is one of the reasons our pass game is suffering. If you're only gonna have 1 receiver on the field, that guy better be able to win 1v1 matchups. Otherwise it's probably better to spread the field out as much as possible and run two slot guys to give Josh as many outlets as possible. I do agree we need the backs involved more in the passing game though. What happened to all the wheel routes to Cook/Johnson?

What happend to Mclauren this year? Its like he got his big check and cashed out.

The master approves

Upon further review, defender violated Mahomes field of vision. Interception has been reversed. Touchdown Kansas City.

watch them mark this short

Mahomes is washed. Their windows is officially closed.

Bubble screens to Shakir behind the LOS all season isn't going to cut it.

It really is amazing they didn't snag Franklin that late in the draft. They did have him in here for several visits pre draft after all. Beane or the scouts have to just be terrible at evaluating WR talent. Or they're need for "culture" fit just overrides actual talent. At least player the Bills did draft in the 4th is turning out to be maybe their best pick this offseason.

Today was more of a showcase of how effing bad Andy Dalton is, less so of how good our defense is. We're not gonna look anything like that against Mahomes. Tet McMillan was open for most of the day.
