Nice to see that Palmer is at least starting to come back. I have a sneaky suspicion that Shaq Thompson and Epenesa will have key (limited but important) roles for the Bills during the last half of the season.

Checking game thread to see all the posts advising never to take Cook off the field….

Cook is on pace to have 325 carries for the season. He is not a large guy. I know his smooth running style and body control prevents him from taking a lot of big hits, but he is getting too much work imo. The problem is the Bills entire offense is so extremely reliant on him. If it feels difficult to remove him from the field because there is such a drop off, then it calls into question another area of roster building and depth where Beane deserves scrutiny.

Hold them out against Miami.

If the pats weren’t breathing down our necks we’d probably have that option but I don’t think you can risk it here.  Division record is gonna be huge.  Pats and bills should both end up 4-0 against everyone else and if the bills win the rematch with them it gets pushed to conference record where the bills have a pretty big edge at the moment.  Dropping a surprising one against Miami probably blows the tiebreaker for good 

 

if it was the jets who just traded away a lot of their team maybe we could get away with it but Miami still has a little bit of juice

That comes out to 4.8 carries per quarter over a full season. That doesn't seem crazy to me for RB1

Don’t love seeing Bosa on there with the wrist. Plus, our wrist injury plague was so 2024 season. 

Hmmm....Wrist injury. Is Bosa Married?🤔

Bosa was holding his wrist after every play Sunday. Concerned he got injured and just played through it on adrenaline and whatever else. Hope it’s not serious but wouldn’t be shocked if it is because we’re not allowed to have nice things.

Totally disagree.

 

This is the NFL, on any given Sunday any team can beat any other team.  Certainly if rest them if it makes sense but NOT because you think Miami is a cak walk., sends the entire team the wrong message and sets us up for the feared "trap game".

PLay your top guys early.  Get lead.  Pull.

 

Yes, any given Sunday, but Miami is a mess.  I don't even know if a team like that qualifies for any given sunday logic.  Players hurt (Hill), GM fired, coach isn't really valued it seems, player traded away.   Team morale low.

 

This is why i say it'll be close.  McD will win it, but use as little resources as possible.  And good.  Thats SMART coaching.  Marathon vs. sprint.

Agree. Give Ty and Ray more reps, but you want Cook active on Game Day.

If only we were that good to just hold everyone out. Miami plays us tough and wants to end the losing streak. Play everyone that can play
