I love Milano and if he had played the whole season the way he has played since week 8 or 9 then he would be in. But he had a slow start by his own standards. I don't think he fully trusted his body post injury and that is normal. But he was definitely half a step off in those early weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played very well all season except for the one game back right after his injury. I've seen these claims about him having a slow start and I never saw that myself. He looked great to me except that first game back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thurman#1 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 8 hours ago, One Buffalo said: Cool. The Bills were hurt this year by their easy schedule early. Nobody was sure if they were really good or just looking good against bad competition. Now, beating Dallas and the Steelers makes them seem like they're for real, but it's too late for a lot of votes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But like Gunner said, I honestly don't think it's all that wrong that Buffalo only had one pro bowler. You could make a case for some other guys (particularly Brown in my opinion), but this is more of a team of solid players rather than a bunch of great players carrying the team. I'm really curious about the underlying numbers for Phillips. Obviously the sack numbers are great, but for example, he's not among the best DTs in terms of pass-rush win rate (which, ironically, Oliver is), and PFF rates him very low. PFF probably rates him far too low, but they don't just make the stuff up; I'd be really curious why they think so little of his play. Totally a guess on my part, but I'm kinda wondering if Phillips' sacks are mainly seen as coverage sacks or plays where we get pressure off the edge that forces the QB to step up into Phillips rather than Phillips breaking through to the QB himself. Edit: Not the complete answer I was looking for, but I saw a tweet from this morning that Phillips has 22 pressures this season; that's probably not even top 5 on the Bills. I know Hughes was past that a month ago and 3 or 4 others were right around there too. He's been awesome this year. Could probably make a case for a different corner to be in his place, but he isn't a bad choice by any means (like Pouncey for example). Pouncey is rated #36 of 36 centers on PFF and made the Pro Bowl. Edited December 18, 2019 by Giuseppe Tognarelli Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eball Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Having only Tre selected is perfect for this team -- it actually reinforces McD's message and gives the team yet another chip on their shoulders heading into Foxboro and the playoffs. That said -- congrats to the Tre White Goalie Academy graduate. He deserves every accolade he receives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lamar wins the MVP and the Ravens are not in the Super Bowl I could see him bailing out, which would leave another open spot. Question is... who is in front of Josh?!?!?!?! Not saying it lines up perfectly with the votes, but here's how the AFC QBs rank in my ratings sheet: 1. Lamar Jackson (1) 2. Pat Mahomes (3) 3. Deshaun Watson (6) 4. Ryan Tannehill (7) 5. Tom Brady (10) 6. Josh Allen (14) 7. Derek Carr (17) 8. Jacoby Brissett (18) That's enough for 3 plus 5 alternates. The top 3 and Allen wound up correct!

Dak has nearly twice as many yards as Brees this year. Not that yards are the end all be all, but it shows just how much Brees has missed; guys like Brees and Tyreek Hill should not have been given any consideration at all.
