They forget we scored more points than them this year, playing vs teams w better Win %, undefeated against top 10 defenses, etc.... Screw KC AND the media! -Buffalo vs the World- Bill's attitude going into this game needs to be, can KC keep up with us. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess its more important to revisit 37 years ago when McDermott was a boy watching football on TV. They already know their status, look at the injury report. McD doesnt comment on injuries further than that, you should know this by now. We will know if they practice or not today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We won't find out for 100% certain if PM is going to play, even though most think it's a good chance. But if he does happen to get ruled out, we/nobody will know til the last possible minute. Which I don't blame him. Coach MCD would do the exact same. Although it likely won't make much of and issue regarding the Bills since they are practicing/game planning on PM playing anyway. If the unlikely scenario he doesn't, I'm pretty sure the Bills can fairly easily adjust for Henne. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are close enough to the game now to know what the weather is going to be like, for the most part. At game time it will be in the upper 30s (F) with some drizzle and light rain on and off. Local weather guys always know what's going on best in their area. I've been watching NBC, CBS, and ABC local affiliates in KC this week. They're all talking about the game time weather.

Mango Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 1 minute ago, Patrick_Duffy said: What gives you this impression? Stills, maybe, but that is just based on Davis not practicing at all this week. I don't get the Freeman whispers I have read on the board this week. Did I miss a Singletary or Yeldon injury? I have no proof, but I get the sense that McD is a big loyalty guy when it comes bringing guys up from the PS last minute. If a player has been grinding for him for an entire season, that is the player that is getting the call more often than not. Freeman would have to be embarrassing Williams, Yeldon, etc. daily before he gets the nod. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not disagreeing with you-- but I had read that this upcoming weather is a bit funky, and harder to predict. It's like an unusual collision of an odd cold and warm front right within the KC area. By the way, I have not seen a lot of differing views re the wind-- seems like 10 MPH or so. Is that what you have seen? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played the whole game against the Ravens. IMO I think he is just getting a rest day similar to how they give some veterans at times. And I agree with you regarding Freeman. I think they go with Yeldon again. Edited January 22, 2021 by Patrick_Duffy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stank_Nasty Posted January 22, 2021 Share Posted January 22, 2021 (edited) So heres a stat for you compliments of Colin Cowherd.... Since the bye, in week 12, the Bills redzone defense is ranked #1 in the league. In that same span KC's offense is ranked 26th in the redzone..... keep it in front of you. make them EARN it. They've had trouble finishing inside the redzone for almost 2 months now. Edited January 22, 2021 by Stank_Nasty 7 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
