I've always enjoyed their predictive analytics for sports. One the things I really liked about looking at their model today -- it shows that the Bills and the Chiefs are the only two teams left who have 14 wins this season. Fourteen wins! Still can't believe it sometimes. GO BILLS!

As @Shaw66 pointed out in his Rockpile Review, Roberts is tough and his teammates feed off of it. A million years ago, I was the kick/punt returner for my high school team, and that experience actually makes me nervous watching Roberts. One of the hardest and most dangerous ways to handle a return is to sprint north/south at full speed even if there isn't an obvious hole to hit. The chance of a violent collision (even with your own teammate) and/or a fumble is extremely high. But on every return, Roberts accelerates to full speed and just trusts his teammates and his own abilities to make something happen. It gives me anxious flashbacks to my days as a returner... but I totally effing love it!

That Josh injury was scary. Couldn't believe he came right back in and eventually scrambled for a TD.
Even though he's a rare sighting, it seems like the few times Barkley has been in this year, he looks woefully unprepared. Just awful. I mean, the opponent is going to blitz on every play and he should be prepared for it if he throws.
Preparation can't mitigate a blown blocking assignment against the best player on defense.

I'll never complain about a win, but I most certainly will complain about the quality of the broadcast today. I lost count of all the screw-ups -- the announcers, the down/distance graphics, the scoreboard crediting the Bills with the points for the first LA TD, the doofuses in the truck showing the wrong replay angle time after time, etc etc. Looked like a friggin' juco project by the students in Video Production 201.

No one brings more energy to the Bills sideline on gameday than Chad Hall. Dude is 100% fired up 100% of the time. I love it.

Poyer's rankings in tackles clearly indicate how soft our rush D is. They're also a good reminder of how different our W/L record might be if he wasn't such a sure tackler in the open field.

Interesting topic, OP! The one that comes to mind for me is Shady for the touchdown run against the Colts in 2017, trudging through about a foot of snow. It was the most Buffalo thing I've ever seen in my life.

Bummer about Foster in concussion protocol. The Bills and the media were hyping the play that Norman made on Foster in practice, but it was clear that he dinged Foster pretty good -- landed full force on Foster's head after knocking the ball away. Oof.

I was at this game.
Me too! Thirty-five yard line behind the Niners bench, with tickets from my wife's company. Never been so entertained at a sporting event in my life (which is saying something).
Thanks for posting, 9 Isles!

Lived in SF for 30 years (and saw the BUF/SF no-punts game in person!), so while I'm a monogamous Bills fan, I have to say Go Niners. Really impressive what they've built in the last couple years.

Didn't see this posted elsewhere -- mods, feel free to merge. Great film study by Baldinger on Singletary's performance against the Texans.

Thank goddess for the early west coast kickoff! Guests will be arriving just about halftime with dinner scheduled for shortly after game ends.
p.s. are you in the city?
Nope, Marin County.

Great thread! I'm in California and the only die-hard Bills fan in the house... but I'm also the cook/host. The main course will be homemade wings in honor of the boys in blue, fried and served after the game is over. Fortunately my family "gets" me and thinks this is appropriate!

The LB covering the RB fell down on the second pick. If Allen was looking short instead of deep he could have hit the RB for a big gain.
Absolutely right -- Yeldon had no one within 20 yards of him because of the LB falling down, and raised his hand so Josh could see him. Terrible decision to throw into double coverage instead.

RIP, Sue. And SDS, thank you for posting your own personal reflections -- you're a true keeper of the flock!

Edge is a more descriptive term. Not quite sure why some folks have a problem with it.
I don't have a problem with it, per se, but it just strikes me as odd. Every other position is abbreviated with one or two uppercase letters, and now we have a whole word typically written in uppercase. I guess it's just an an OCD/pet-peeve type of thing. Wondering if someday they will have SLOT or WILL or SAM or MIKE.

On literally every one of Josh's long runs, he torched Kiko. It was glorious.

He's listed at only 193 pounds but it looks to me like he's much thicker and heavier than that. Like 20 lbs more. Is that an illusion?
I think it is indeed an illusion. He is only 5'8", so he needs the bulk in order to not get destroyed. I actually wonder if his fumbling issues might be because his guns are getting in the way.

I did see Jerry Hughes giving effort, but you are right, it did seem that Johnson was the only one playing hard.
I'll also give props to Zay Jones. He didn't have many opportunities, but it looks like his early-season issues are behind him, and I loved his effort on the Ingram fumble recovery.

I just have to say that I can't wait to see our receiving corp in action this weekend. Benjamin, Matthews and Clay? That's a bunch of tall ballers right there! Tyrod must be stoked.

Feeling like a dunce here: what is BBFS? I must have missed its introduction into the TBD lexicon, and now I see it every day. Heck, I think I probably have BBFS, but I don't know what the acronym stands for.

Beautiful, Shaw!
Thank you Buffalo Bills

Sucks to lose, but I'm very happy to be a Bills fan. This team has been an important source of joy in an otherwise bleak time. GO BILLS!
