    Wild Card Weekend - Wild Card Weather

    I was driving from Buffalo to Cincinnati after my uncles funeral with my entire family in the car.  It’s dark, and everybody is sleeping when we hit a band of snow near Erie, PA. I can’t see anything! I’m driving by feel using those lane marker bumps. I can’t pull over because I don’t know where over is! I might be just parking in the right lane, for all I know. Trucks and cars all just trying to follow the leader without getting too close, but get too far and you have nothing to follow. 

     

    So I’m doing this white knocked driving all by myself. Suddenly there is a major dip, like a rollercoaster feeling in my stomach. I’m sure I’ve gone off the road, but it’s too smooth. Then a stop sign went by and told me I had gotten off at an exit, but by the time I realized what had happened I was back on the highway! My mother woke up first and I heard “Oh ****!” About 30 minutes later we drove out of it, my father woke up and asked I if wanted him to drive. Yes please. That was the most frightening experience ever driving a car. 

     

    If Mother Nature decides to make a game impossible, that is within her power. You just need the best Plan B possible. 

     

    Nobody drives as good as a dad.

    I still say I'd rather have Miami in Miami than Pittsburgh in a Buffalo blizzard. If only weather forecasting was an exact science one week out.

     

    Could move the game to Joe Robbie, it's not like the Dolphins will be using it again this season 😉

    Bills-Dolphins Week 18 for the Division! SUNDAY NIGHT GAME

    Call me crazy, but I can't help but shake the feeling that the Bills are more likely to reach the Super Bowl as a 7 seed than a 2 seed. (6 seed and they'll be one-and-done - winning twice in KC isn't realistic IMO).

     

    As a 7 seed...

    • Bills would face Miami in the Wild Card round. I can't see the Dolphins beating them twice two weeks in a row, especially as banged up as they are.
    • They would then travel to Baltimore to face the Ravens in the Divisional Round. Lamar Jackson and some other key starters won't have played for three weeks. That hot streak they've been on? Probably dissipated. They'll be rusty. Not to mention no one will expect the Bills to win that game. That's the type of game they're most likely to win.
    • In the AFC Championship we may have to travel to KC. But considering how off the Chiefs seem to be this season, I wouldn't bet against the Texans or Browns being the opponent. I'm not scared of those teams, especially as a Bills team riding high feeling like they have nothing to lose. All the pressure will be on the Texans/Browns hosting an AFC Championship game they never expected to host.

    As a 2 seed...

    • Bills would most likely host the Texans in the wild card round. After an emotional win in Miami, coming back home and facing a up-and-coming Texans team? Ripe for an upset.
      • (Yes, they could face the Steelers or Jaguars - neither of which are that scary on paper but they're good defensive teams who've played well lately and the "ripe for an upset" statement still applies)
    • Even if they can get past the Wild Card round, they host what will likely be the Chiefs in the Divisional Round (I can't see the Dolphins beating Chiefs in KC). Beating Mahomes/Reid twice in one season? That is a tough ask, even at home.
    • Then if they get to the AFC Championship, they more than likely have to face the Ravens in Baltimore (unless the Ravens are upset). The rust will have been shaken off by then and the Ravens will be fired up and riding high. I don't see this Bills team capable of winning that one.

    We'll see what happens, but I've been thinking of this all week. All to say if the Bills are locked into the 7 seed with a loss going into the game Sunday night, I won't be feeling any nervousness at all at kickoff.

    Remind me of the last Bills playoff win on the road?  Beat Miami.

    Realistic order as of today: 

     

    Hill 

    CMC

    Purdy 

    Lamar

    Hurts

    Allen 

    Trent Williams

     

     

    The Dolphins know Hill will be back so the belief is still there.  Helps to play Zach Wilson at home.  They put it on their D today to win and they did.  
     

    No non QB means more to their team and impacts the game like Hill.  

     

     

    "Realistic".  Proceeds to list an offensive lineman.

    Good Night / Bad Night - Pre-season game 1

    I’ll add that Elam made a play when he had Anthony Richardson barreling down on him one-on-one with a head of steam.  Nothing flashy, just held his position and made the play with help arriving quickly.  He was giving up a lot of size on that play and his run defense was a criticism this time last year, so nice to see some development.

    Two week training camp predictions

    The bills need to free up cap space for 53 plus practice squad plus in season moves.  I was looking over spotrac and other than redoing contracts I was looking at who they can cut to save money.    The top guy is Morse and with Torrence at guard I wonder if they would go with Bates at center.   If they spread out cap casualties over two years they are more candidates.   I am not saying I think this will happen but if it did I would understand why.  

     

    The Bills have a a lot of depth at DL, OL and CB.  I think you could see some trades.   I have seen almost nothing out of Basham....a sign of a good GM is one who is willing to let go of a high draft pick when it becomes clear it was just did not work out.   Lawson was starting last year, are you really keeping Basham over him because he is young and signed for one additional year?

     

    At DT, I was thinking Phillips might start on PUP but that is not happening....I think he is on the bubble right now because of the numbers.  I don't like Settle but his contract blows....


    I can’t imagine a team with their sights set on the Super Bowl thinks it’s a good idea to cut their starting Center two weeks into training camp.

    Your Catholic blues, your convent shoes,
    Your stick-on tattoos now they're making the news
    Your holy war, your northern star
    Your sermon on the mount from the boot of your car.

    Please, please, please
    Get up off your knees.
    Please, please, please
    Leave me out of this, please.
