The one thing I read the other day that the media got right was that this officiating crew calls a lot of penalties, but the road team also has a very good record when they work the game.

i hope so, but if you recall Davis was great his rookie year, making a bunch of 20 yard tip toe sideline catches. Then the 4 TD playoff game year 2

What a wimp! Cut if off and keep playing. He has two of them for a reason!

I'd argue they get one more shot with a 2nd team before getting labeled lifetime backup.

This weeks game starts at 4:05, it's not the national 4:25 doubleheader game. There's only one Fox game shown this Sunday. The 4:05 game is typically only shown in the areas of the participating teams, plus a few other places pick it up in the cities of teams that have a 1:00 home game. But looking at the 506 TV maps this week the Bills Seattle game is being shown in a larger than normal viewing area, it even has the Fox #1 team of Brady and Burkhart. Some of it's luck as cities that have a 1:00 home game also happen to be some of the largest populated cities in the country like NY, Houston, San Fran, and entire northeast in between them plus the state of Texas. Will be interesting to see the national rating next week if the Bills game outdraws the CBS doubleheader game as not what I'd call any great matchups being shown there. It's somewhat unusual to even have 3 doubleheader games so that will further split up viewership.

Pretty lucky that the same didn't happen with Allen. I really think the key is the correct development approach. Even Mahomes didn't play much his first year. Was Daboll here Allens 1st year or was it Greg Roman?

In the past 3 years there's been more sideline blows ups with Brian and someone than McD and someone so I'll side with McD on this one.

Maybe not so much this year but in the past the Bills offense often generates at least one of not two first downs, so Martin is often punting from close to the 50. That give less room for error, rarely can ever let it rip.

I'm more betting on the steal eventually being either Solomon or SVG

Didn't notice that, hmmm... interesting.

So YTD here's Coleman's Stats And Worthy Worthy has more TD's when you factor in the runs which tends to show he's more of a gadget guy.

Teams come out with a game plan and when it doesn't work switch to something else. Seems like the Bills stick with their original plan longer than most teams even when not working. When it gets more desperate, then they change things up. You don't want to give up on your plan too soon, but seems the Bills wait too long.

Bills could have had about 5 int's today, but dropped many. Teams come out with a game plan and when it doesn't work switch to something else. Seems like the Bills stick with their original plan longer than most teams even when not working. When it gets more desperate, then they change things up.

Nope Fox has the doubleheader that week. Good chance it will be the main "regional" 1:00 game with Nance and Romo on the call.

Apparently this guy must be a coach on the Bills and he's watched every practice since he proclaimed Edwards is better than Hamlin. The only thing I know is over the length of his career, yes Edwards is better than Hamlin, but in 2024, haven't seen him play so no idea. The only people that have seen him play is the coaching staff and the players.

The dead cap hurts this year, but realistically at some point, the Bills were going to move on from Diggs and take a hit. Very expected it to be this year, but now done with it and in better shape for 2025

Article I read stated trade was in final stages yesterday and Adams was on a plane to NY last night

Yes but the pick goes to New England!

Can Bishop take Hamlin's spot or he more suited only for Rapp's position. Could Rapp play FS??

Agree I was thinking the exact same, they are both colors almost was going to write that too, just as both players get paid in money so that is also similar.

I guess black and white are similar too.

I love it when the announcers say, "the injury was gruesome, but we're not going to show it" Then why even mention it? Just say he's hurt.

A little? OJ??

i posted this in another thread. As Diggs stated after the game, last weeks game did mean more to him. Maybe the same was true here for Allen. He wanted to show that the comment "Sure about that" WRT Allen wasn't because of Diggs, but was mostly due to him. It seems like in general it doesn't take much to Allen a little amped up and playing against Diggs could have done that.

Don't know if this has been talked about somewhere, didn't see it, but wondering if Allen's issues Sunday were due to him trying to prove he didn't need Diggs. Diggs commented afterwards, the game did mean alot, maybe Allen felt the same. Was reading Kubiaks column and he tends to rarely blame Allen even when they lose and looks like he did bad. He'll point out mistakes by the receivers or maybe the O-line. But not this week, he blamed the problems with Allen mostly not taking what the defense would give him and just repeatedly going for the deep pass rather than taking the easy completion.
