In 2019 Jameis had 33 TD passes and 30 INTs.

BTW, if you like Courtland Sutton you'll probably like Keon Coleman. He'll grow on you... slowly.

The Browns have beaten the Ravens and the Steelers within the last 4 weeks.

We also haven't seen JJ McCarthy. Compared to George Pickens, Jeudy is a Bodhisattva.

This stat isn't talked about enough

Thank you. -
He left out the Bills game... not the 49ers game. 😄

Another Josh Allen touchdown to watch over and over!
Sierra Foothills replied to bmur66's topic in The Stadium Wall
Receiving that scoop lateral from Amari was easier than 99% of the shotgun snaps he fields. -
Damar Hamlin leading pro bowl voting
Sierra Foothills replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would think that they calculate the percentage for each player per each of the 3 classes (coaches/players/fans), then treat each as an equal third and sum the percentages... or sum the percentages and then divide it by 3. -

There was no personal foul on that play. As you probably noticed, on Josh's TD run he ran through a tackle attempt by Warner and as spun off the tackle in the end zone, turned around and gave Warner a look of disdain/contempt. -

Diontae Johnson to the Ravens (now claimed by Houston)
Sierra Foothills replied to Process's topic in The Stadium Wall
From ProFootballTalk: "Despite Rashod Bateman suffering a knee injury during Sunday’s loss to the Eagles, Ravens receiver Diontae Johnson did not play a single snap in the contest. Baltimore acquired Johnson from Carolina on Oct. 29. But Johnson has caught just one 6-yard pass in four appearances. He was active against the Eagles but ended up as one of two DNPs along with backup quarterback Josh Johnson. Head coach John Harbaugh was ominous in his response about the receiver postgame and struck a similar tone in his Monday press conference. “At this time, I’m going to have to wait,” Harbaugh said, via Jeff Zrebiec of TheAthletic.com. “There are some moving parts there that we’re going to have to figure out and explore and see where we’re at. It’s the best I can do in fairness to everybody.” When asked if Johnson is going to stay on the team, Harbaugh stood by his original comment and noted the club will work it out over the next few days while on the bye week." https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/john-harbaugh-on-diontae-johnson-im-going-to-have-to-wait-to-comment -
Damar Hamlin leading pro bowl voting
Sierra Foothills replied to Buffalo_Stampede's topic in The Stadium Wall
"Players are voted into the Pro Bowl by the coaches, the players themselves, and the fans. Each group's ballots count for ⅓, or 33.3%, of the votes. Fans vote on their preferred players at NFL.com. Replacements are selected should any selected player be unable to play for injuries, self-withdrawal, or Super Bowl contention. Prior to 1995, only the coaches and the players made Pro Bowl selections." -

As regards the health of one Joshua Patrick Allen, there shall be no joking. 🙂 -

The best thing about the Amari/Josh TD was that unlike Reid/Mahomes/Kelce it was a pure and spontaneous football play. As Josh explained to Melisssa Starks, he saw Amari bobbling the ball and decided to run to the play in case he needed to bat the ball down to prevent an interception. Separately Amari had the awareness to ad lib on the play. You know, there's a short list of players who qualify for the title of "Best Football Player in the NFL"... guys like TJ Watt, Roquan Smith, Max Crosby... Josh is the only QB on that list. It can't be acknowledged and appreciated enough, how this edition of the Bills can seamlessly toggle from being a bad weather team to a dome team from one week to the next. I just love how all of the offensive skill position players played fewer than 50% of snaps. I love that we minimized the wear and tear on these guys and didn't have to dig too deeply into our playbook. There are so many advantages to being able to line up jumbo and smash teams into submission. But that's no laughing matter! -

Yes, Josh has himself on his fantasy football team. Clearly a guy who's very comfortable betting on himself. Not only the building of a physical run game... but also having big targets in the passing game who are also great blockers. Many people on this board insisted that putting Josh at the controls of a run offense amounted to malpractice... that it was a criminal misappropriation of his skills to take the ball out of his hands. Those people were wrong. -
I agree you'd have to nitpick to really criticize the decisions. They settled for a 27 yard FG on 4th & 8 from the KC 9 on the game's opening drive. As someone else pointed out, the 4th and 5 fake punt arguably should have been a regular play. And I suppose they could have gone for it on 4th and 9 from the KC 26 with under 2 minutes left instead of trying the failed game-tying 44 yard field goal attempt. But those would not really be fair criticisms.

I get excited for games as I have since the beginning. What's changed is my perspective and the Bills ascendance... and the simple joy that comes from Josh Allen being our quarterback. For regular season games I no longer worry and there's no fear or apprehension as kickoff nears... just the excitement you might feel before seeing a blockbuster movie or a highly-anticipated concert. If the Bills lose in the regular season it hurts but there's not as much at stake as there used to be... I no longer live vicariously through the team. The playoffs are an entirely different story!!!

In last year's Divisional Round loss to the Chiefs, the Bills: Went for it on 4th & 1 from their own 40 on the game's opening drive. Josh ran for 6 yards for the 1st down. Kicked a FG on 4th & 8 from the KC 9 to complete that same drive. Bills 3-0 Punted on 4th & 5 from their own 40 leading 10-6 with 6 minutes left in the 1st half. The Bills netted just 25 yards on the punt and KC drove 65 yards for the TD that gave them a 13-10 lead. The Bills then replied with a 75 yard drive for the TD that would give them a 17-13 halftime lead Attempted a fake punt on 4th & 5 from their own 30, trailing 27-24 early in the 4th quarter. Hamlin was stopped after a 2 yard gain and the Bills turned the ball over on downs. KC took over on the Bills 32 yard line but on the 2nd play while trying to score, Mecole Hardman fumbled through the end zone and the Bills got the ball back on their own 20 via touchback. The turnover resulted from a replay challenge by the Bills, reversing the original ruling of runner down by contact. Punted on 4th & 12 from their own 18 with 10 minutes remaining in regulation, trailing 27-24. The Bills then forced a KC punt after a possession of 5 plays, 8 yards, and 2 minutes and 22 seconds. This led to the Bils final possession starting from their own 20 yard line with over 8 minutes remaining Went for it on 4th & 3 from midfield with under 5 minutes remaining, trailing 27-24. Josh to Shakir for 10 yards to convert. Attempted a 44 yard FG on 4th & 9 from the KC 26 with 1:47 remaining, trailing 27-24. Bass' kick was wide right. There was 1:43 remaining and the Bills had 2 timeouts but KC got the first down needed to run out the clock.

Matt Milano Officially Activated from IR

Despite the snap count restriction, Milano will play enough to make a splash play. That's the kind of player he is. -
Week 13 - 49ers at Bills Game Week Thread
Sierra Foothills replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yep. Cam has improved quite a bit this year but I'm still very leery of his tackling. He's pretty decent with the finesse aspects but unless he improves his physicality there's gonna be a big dropoff from Taron to him. It does seem like Cam is playing faster so I'm encouraged by that. -
Week 13 - 49ers at Bills Game Week Thread
Sierra Foothills replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
I still use dagnabit, dagnabit! I think the Bills briefly went to a 4-3 during the debacle at Baltimore. I don't think it's beyond the realm of possibility. Based on the above the range is 15-25". -
It's funny that the conspiracy theories are coming out... in both cases being cited, the refs had zero bearing on the outcome. As has been correctly pointed out by some, both of the games were a product of immense organizational game management failures... the refs had no bearing on the outcomes. The takeaway is that even in high-stakes, big money enterprises, incredibly stupid mistakes get made. I call it "the fallacy of status equalling competence." Many people I talk to just assume a person a person is competent because they've managed to accrue status or wealth. Wrong. Pretty sure the "botched snap" refers to the one that bounced of Aidan O'Connell's chest and was recovered by the Chiefs.

Thanks very much for posting this. I wish it was zoomed in and tilted up a bit. Too much foreground.
