I don't really get it, maybe with the playoffs actually clinched he's getting a shot to show he's got that bend back on some snaps, no other time left for him to do it that isn't win or go home.

I don't think they're thinking that far ahead. I honestly don't get their panic at playing the Bills twice.

Odds of beating any opponent twice in a row no matter who the teams are is pretty bad and then you factor in bills have success against Miami much more often than not and it gets very unlikely

So unhappy with McClappy on this......I really hope to eat these words but it ain't looking like it.....

Agree….he hasn’t shown any reason to be active let alone take snaps from others. 

 

Maybe he was slapped back into reality by being inactive. Let’s hope he rises to a new level.

I absolutely think they’re thinking that far ahead, and if you don’t get their panic, you haven’t been watching these last five years.

How he looks tonight will determine if he plays during the playoffs.  I still wouldn't give him a ton of snaps. He'll be close to 💯 by Sept but he'll also be 35.

Probably one of the better links I've found on an opponents forum:

 

 

They made a really good point that the Bills defense earlier this season already seemed to know what was going on.  Really interesting to see if we can reproduce our earlier defensive effort (and Baltimore's).  

 

Edit: to be clear, the guy talking in the video turns 10 minutes into 70.  But the first 10-15 had good knowledge in it

I wonder if it’s a literal tell or just tua staring down routes and not really going through progressions/not using the sideline much unless it’s a deep ball

This is a bit of the "gambler's fallacy": Just because roulette wheel was just on black, it's human nature to think it is more likely to be red next spin.  That's not true.  It's only when looking back and seeing 2 or 5 black spins in a row can we say how unlikely it was for so many blacks to occur in a row. 

 

So if each game is roughly 50/50, we could beat Miami once and feel that it's less likely we beat them again next week (disregarding that we wouldn't play them if we win).  But if the second game were also roughly 50/50, those same odds apply to the second game.  No reason for the odds to change.  We can look back and say, wow, we beat Miami twice in a row and the odds of that happening are 50%*50% or 25%.

I believe it is something they are seeing presnap.

The queen video seemed to imply it was an actual tell. 

 

Really got some perspective for game plans for me.  The idea of some coaching aide hitting rewind/play/rewind/play on the same players all week looking for how much weight they put on their knuckles is crazy.  It helps understand why upsets can happen that seem incomprehensible to fans.

I'd rather catch Baltimore when they're rusty and Jackson is coming off three weeks of rest.

 

Seriously, I prefer the 7 seed.

Im not sure I agree with this...but sure! Lol
