texans injury report in 4-point comic sans font. 

 

I was saying that's hard to read. They couldn't at least do white on red?

It’s personal reasons…rumor has it it’s for the birth of his child but I don’t think he wants to be public about it 

So he might play then.

Yea I’d think he’s playing

we heard the same thing about the buc's defense last week how good they are...    Josh changes all that when he is focused.

All your base are belong to us.

 

Looks more like a terrible translation issue.

he got hurt on the punt return that he fumbled and never returned

 

I find that so hard to believe. I didn't see the injury at first so I went back and watched the fumbled punt, and he was walking around at the end of the play without any sort of limp or sign of pain. Maybe something developed over time, but I really doubt it.

 

Was he in for any plays (offense or special teams) after that fumble?

They call it "Battle Red" despite it being "Shop Floor Orange"

I know this is last weeks game, but I thought you would all enjoy watching an ultra condensed version of the 6 TD game 😃

 

 

Thank you! Don't mind if I do!

It's amazing how they can manipulate photos to make a guy's neck look shorter.

A few weeks ago, I thought KC -2 was easy money. I thought they'd win.

 

Last week, I thought, TB +5.5 was easy money. I thought we'd win, but by less than 5.5,

 

In my defense, that did look like a game that would be decided by less than 5.5 points the entire time. I mean... 9 LEAD CHANGES!!!

 

So the Bills are now 2-0 when I bet against them, and once again, I think our opponent at +5.5 is the better bet. Again, I think we win, but by less. Houston has an elite defense, and their 2 home losses this season were decided by 3 (to the Broncos) and 1 (to the Bucs).  

 

That said, I'm sorry Bills Mafia, because as good as it feels to be part of the reason the Bills are winning every time I bet against them, my bank account does not agree.

 

 

 

 

I learned decades ago to never bet for or against the Bills. Never works. Of course I don’t gamble at all anymore but if I did I would just leave the Bills alone.

I am guessing PS players don’t receive a practice designation? I am wondering how Gabe’s knee held up after the game. I am assuming this is one reason he has not been signed to the 53, Bills just want to make sure he doesn’t sustain any setbacks before giving him the spot. 

I don’t think they do but I’m not 100% on that.

Cant lose to Davis Mills.  Just can’t.  Thats the game break down. 

The worst Bills loss in the last 25 years was to Cleo Lemon. You don’t lose to a QB named Cleo Lemon

I wouldn't be surprised if we turn the ball over a time or two. Texans are 6th in takeaways. Bucs are 5th in takeaways btw.

Might be a matchup where it's wiser for Allen to take the early/easy throws if they're available, especially in the first couple drives. He's been passing those up at times and then getting a little sped up and out of sync. Kinda in-between bailing out and holding out for that arrogant throw. He was successful in the first 4 games with stepping up in the pocket early and often (usually to the left). Then it seems like he made more of an effort to stick in there, but in so doing lost his interior escape gap as the pockets collapsed. Feet got a little happy.

 

Dude like Allen needs to impose. He needs to be decisive and vertical in his pocket movement whenever possible, placing defenders into conflict and giving his targets more opportunities to get open. I'll take 3 step laser beams on slants and seams and curls and swings if those are there for the taking, of course. While the rules protect QBs within the tackle box, I think Allen can protect himself better when he's proactive.
