I hate that this stat has been getting traction. Last year, before the Baltimore game, the stat that gained traction was that the Bills hadn’t been beaten by more than 1 score in 42 (regular season) games. A NFL record. They then proceeded get trounced.

This is the first one that came to mind for me. I remember how ecstatic I was as a kid when Kelly scored. Coming off the loss to Cincy in the '88 AFCCG I was sure the Bills had finally arrived. I was right. The other game is the 2003 trouncing of the Pats after the Lawyer signing. After years of suffering at the hands of the Pats I had thought to Bills had closed the gap and had finally arrived. I was wrong.

I saw the “highest completion percentage 55%” part of the post and thought, “ I don’t remember him struggling with completions in the playoffs. Low and behold I check Allen’s stats and he was 16/22. That’s 72.7%. Maybe the rest of the stats are legit but I’m not bothering looking them up. EDIT: Just checked the 2020 playoff game. 23/37. 62.1%. Yeah, for real I’m not looking up any more.

I expect Coleman’s depth of target to come way down this year, which will serve to increase his target rate. I can see a world where Kinkaid has around 70 rec and Coleman 50.

That Jets WR room is awful, if he can’t make the 53 there he can’t make it anywhere…New York, New York.

No only do I think he’ll be on the PS, I’m guessing if Tre can’t go week 1 he’ll be elevated and be the week 1 starter.

Splash plays might appear to win big games but if you're out of position over and over again you can also cost a team games and many fans might be unware it's even happening. Ideally a player can be do both.

This has been what I’ve seen most pre-season as well. Walker gets a few splash plays that get everyone’s attention but Sanders has been the better - more consistent- player who does all the little things that don’t always get noticed. So far I’m pleased with both of these picks and I think they’ll both make positive contributions to this DL this year. I think the interior DL will be better this year. Landon Jackson, on the other hand, I think is at least a year away. Baring injury I don’t think he gets a jersey on game days.

Yeah, they’ve started slowly the past couple of years and those losses have cost them at the end. As such they’re trying to get everyone ramped up. Zac Taylor’s on the hot seat and knows he needs to make the playoffs this year or he’s probably gone.

Gabe Davis as the starting X and Gabe Davis as the back up X are two different things. Not sure why it’s so binary for some. I hated Gabe as the #2 option on this offense. As the 4-5? I’d take that. Im intrigued by the idea mostly because the Bills have nobody who can- legit- line up at the X except Coleman. We have a bunch of slots or slot/Z hybrids. All that said I don’t think it’ll happen. Might be nothing more than a ploy to light a fire under Samuel’s ass. Medical evaluation.

First time on the internet?

It’s hard to get a read on these things outside of the building. It’s possible Moore could be cut but here’s a quote from Joe Buscaglia’s Atlantic article about the joint practice on Friday. I’m not sure how much Moore’s performance in pre-season game 2 without Allen will impact things. I do think that McD is getting frustrated with Samuel’s continued absence though.

I guess if Bishop and Palmer equate to “plenty” the guy has a point. Not sure how anybody can get their panties twisted in a knot over this game, but the internet’s got to internet.

And Davis and Ty do things Cook cannot. It’s a good RB room with complimentary skill sets.

And then raising the championship banner to open the new stadium.
