No he didn’t!! That was Robinson, the GM. Vrabel was opposed to that trade.

I certainly suspect so.

This is gonna be a blowout. The coaching differential between the two teams is so vast.

Prater is making 89.5 percent of his FG attempts this year, which is better than any season of Bass's: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/players/B/BassTy00.htm. As for XPs, Prater is at 91.9 percent this year (low for him, but a couple of doinked uprights), while Bass was at 92.2 percent last year. Indistinguishable on that front, really, and if Prater makes his next two XPs, he'll be better than Bass was last year.

It's not a volume stat at all. It's all about efficiency. The key metrics are ypa, completion pct, INT rate, and TD rate. If a QB goes 8-11 in a game for 94 yards, 1 TD, and 0 INTs, his passer rating is 128.6.

As mentioned above, passer rating differential is the God stat in the NFL, and the Bills D's passer rating against is very good: 80.9. https://www.si.com/more-sports/2011/06/23/most-importantstatpasserratingdifferential

The Bills are 6th in team defense in the passing game: https://www.nfl.com/stats/team-stats/defense/passing/2025/reg/all. Sort by passer rating. Passer rating differential is the most predictive of all NFL stats in determining winning and losing. Here is the top 10: The Bills team passer rating on offense is 99.5, and the +18.6 differential is reflected in their 8-4 record.

We don't know that. According to Joe Marino, reporters said immediately after the Houston game that he seemed a bit off in the postgame interviews.

I guess I’d say that while every team has injuries, some teams really do have it worse than others and it legitimately explains won-loss records. Sure, it’s an excuse at times, but at other times it’s just a reasonable explanation.

The two are not the same players.

My understanding based on past comments from @GunnerBill is that Bills are pretty high on Grable. As I understand it, he’s pretty athletic for an OT.

Definitely can’t hurt. He’s far more accomplished than any receiver on the team and appears to have some juice left. Kind of an Emmanuel Sanders signing, who was at least decent for the Bills and still a high-level separator when he played for them.

The Josh Johnson of wide receivers -- brilliant!!!!!

Something to think about: Brandin Cooks, Davante Adams, and a done-for-the-season Mike Evans are the three remaining WRs standing from the historic 2014 NFL wide receiver draft haul:
