I saw Bosa look excellent on multiple plays. Limit his reps and save him for big moments and big games.

I think that's the case. No game breaker in the skill positions (Coleman is not that) but a lot guys who can contribute and have some big games here and there. When I rewatched highlights I saw a lot of good things from Bosa. If they can keep him on a pitch count I think he will be a big factor this year. Oliver looked great. When we get Hairson and Hoecht on D I think that unit can be dominant at times.

I literally just watched the Cowherd vid seconds before coming here and noted the LeBron comment. Josh doesn't have an A+ skill guy on O, but he's got a lot of B and maybe one or two B+ guys. Let's see with better play calling and a healthy D how the team is after about 5 or 6 games. If Josh still needs to carry the team to victory, then Cowherd's point might be fair. But I suspect that team will be stronger and more balanced then.

I think we are now to the Ravens what the Chiefs are (hopefully "were") to us. Unfreaking real!!!! I LOVE YOU ALL!!!!!!!!!!!!

I hope it feels like Xmas and not Halloween. The injuries have me spooked.

To quote Warren Zevon, "I don't want to talk about it."

Perhaps @ganesh is being modest but I feel a PDF is not necessary (some won't download it) and we can post the full PDF contents here (it's not overly long). Thanks for the write up and supporting a real team player. Written by Ganesh (not me): Dawson Knox: Buffalo’s Tight End of Grit and Glory From Walk-On to Bills Mainstay Dawson Knox’s story has never been about the easy path. A quarterback in high school who battled injuries, he walked on at Ole Miss with little fanfare and few catches to his name. Scouts saw raw athleticism more than polish. But what stood out was his drive—the quiet, relentless work ethic that transformed him from a forgotten prospect into an NFL draft pick. When the Buffalo Bills selected him in the third round of the 2019 draft, it wasn’t just about measurables. It was about potential. About a player who embodied resilience, toughness, and the kind of determination that fit the DNA of Buffalo itself. Plays That Feel Like Buffalo Knox’s game isn’t glamorous. It’s gritty. He’s as proud of a key block as he is of a touchdown. He’ll fight through defenders for three extra yards that won’t make the highlight reel but might win a drive. One play that encapsulates him came in January 2022, during the Bills’ wild-card playoff against the Patriots. On Buffalo’s opening drive, Josh Allen rolled right and fired a pass Knox’s way. The ball seemed destined to sail out of reach—until Knox twisted his body mid-air, extended to the limit, and somehow reeled it in for the touchdown. It was Buffalo’s first score in a game that would become one of the franchise’s most dominant playoff performances. And it was pure Dawson Knox: impossible catch, relentless focus, refusing to give up on a play that looked dead. By the night’s end, Knox had found the end zone twice—and came within a single yard of a third touchdown. It wasn’t just production, it was persistence, the kind of never-say-die performance that set the tone for the entire team. “I trust Dawson. When the game’s on the line, I know he’s going to fight for that ball.” – Josh Allen In 2021, Knox broke Buffalo’s single-season touchdown record for tight ends. But even in that career year, his identity wasn’t the scoreboard—it was the sacrifice. The willingness to take a hit over the middle. The unselfish joy in celebrating a teammate’s score. Every play feels like Buffalo itself: hard, cold, unrelenting, built on pride—and defined by a\ never-say-never belief that no moment is too big. A Bill for Life Knox’s connection with the city runs deeper than stats. He’s embraced its winters, its work ethic, and its identity as an underdog that refuses to quit. Head coach Sean McDermott puts it plainly: “Dawson is the guy who’ll do whatever it takes—block, catch, fight through pain. That’s Buffalo football.” – Sean McDermott That’s why many in Buffalo believe Dawson Knox is more than just a player. He’s a symbol. The kind of athlete who doesn’t just wear the jersey but lives what it represents. The Legacy in Motion For Knox, football is more than a game. It’s family, faith, and city all bound together in blue and red. His plays remind fans of Buffalo’s own story—fighting for every inch, never backing down, finding pride in perseverance. Dawson Knox isn’t just a tight end. He’s Buffalo’s tight end. And if the city has its way, he’ll be a Bill for life.

Tough for him, but he wasn't playing well. The Bills had tried to convert him to a one-tech and it wasn't working. Some thought he kept a roster spot this year largely due to his third-round status.

800 yards. Won't be a guy defenses need to plan for per se, but a very solid contributer.

Talk about a polarizing jersey!

RACIALISM! !

I hear Henry Jones has been doing pilates twice a week these days. He could be an option, too.

Walker did take on a double team but was pushed back a few yards. Not ideal. Did you watch the whole video or just the first play breakdown? I watched the whole thing and while Joe called out Walker on that first play breakdown he called out Walker on four other plays where he praised him. So plenty of love from Marino for Walker. He called him "dominating" and said he had "very good technique" and a "good feel for where the ball was." A player can have a good game but not be perfect. Marino can like Walker's play but not love every single play. I'm a fan of Marino and like his analysis a lot. I think you may have jumped to a rushed conclusion here about what Joe thinks about Walker.

This feels like a bad joke, trying to be an Onion-like article. But, unlike the Onion, it's not funny. If it's totally serious, that's a joke.

He apparently deliberately tanked interviews with certain teams so as not to get drafted by them. Deion said the year before his sons won't be playing for certain teams, and it would be an Eli Manning-like situation if certain teams drafted them.

He was a top-five regular-season wide receiver. Give the man his due. The numbers don't lie.

Given that he's not reported as injured, I'd guess that one target, zero catches last night and his NFL dream slipping away (at least this year) is the reason for the tears.

Wide right is the perfect end to that half.

Apparently, Keon had a strong showing... Saw a 30-min YouTube vid but no highlights so I didn't watch.

Cook was crystal clear with his initial demands: Cook went on Instagram Live on Wednesday and pinned his own comment that said "15 mill year," per the Rochester Democrat and Chronicle. Has he reduced his number either slightly or significantly? Who knows. But let's not act as if we know he's changed his stance and is asking for a number that the market will bear for his production and duties. You can guess what you want, but I'll deal in known facts and the fact is he went public with a $15 million demand. Do we sign him for $11 million? Maybe, but until we find out, the folks dealing with his public comments have more information than you do.

Good to hear that Kincaid will likely have a busy year and that Coleman had the offensive play of the day.

I'm no expert of his regular season production but I see the dude get pressure and make plays in the playoffs. I'd take him.

Yes, we don't have a true number one. Yes, the rest of the fanbase and I would like one. Yes, I think we have a better WR room than 2024.

This clown had 8 games last year of 40 yards or fewer; he's a declining diva looking for attention. I wonder if McDaniel has the guts to tell him to shut up with comments like this. Probably not. That team's a mess and good for us.

With all the records he has set and will, Josh will make the HOF with, I think between two and four more seasons of roughly the same level of play (and stats, though I expect the rushing to drop a bit every year). No Super Bowl needed. When you have a generational player setting those kinds of records, you don't need a team championship to be recognized there.
