And every catch Mack Hollins has today will really get me venting, and I think he will have a few, especially on 3rd and 13.

Beane doesn't get enough criticism for paying Palmer instead of Hollins, who was clutch--and stayed healthy.

I don’t think you overpay for a guy like Hollins. He got a little more money and went to NE.

Davis a healthy scratch. Insane, baffling, repulsive decision 

[Mark Vader]

Off to my Bills Bar.

 

You can still win the division. Show us how much you want it!

 

GO BILLS!!!

[Casey D]

May just want to give Davis a blow given how long he was off with injury.  McDermott at some point said they wanted to keep him on a pitch count of some kind.

The betting action. The Bills now have a huge national/international following, and the (dumb?) betting money follows the popular teams.

We are now the Pats, but are we the 2010 Pats or the 2020 Pats?

We are now favored by 2.5. Unbillievable.

Makes no sense that Davis is inactive today. Coleman has better hands but Davis is the better WR in every other way. 

Cooks can do everything Palmer can do. Again makes no sense. Davis is a better blocker than Palmer. Palmer has shown nothing this year to be playing over Davis. 

 

Hope Coleman has a breakout game to prove us all wrong. Highly doubt it. 

Id rather see Kincaid and Knox combine for 180 yards. 

 

Enjoy the game! Go Bills!!!

Nope. Davis IS  a healthy scratch. This is what junior varsity roster management looks like.

Yea not sure why they didn’t embed this time

There was another pass recently to Davis that resulted in an Allen interception. That seemed to be an issue in his last last season here.  Coleman probably won’t get more than 2 targets. Can’t see either being a factor in this game so maybe Keon gets the nod for blocking purposes?!

Maybe the general betting public keeps putting money on the Bills because they don’t believe New England is for real. The line is based on where they can get that sweet spot of bets on both sides. That might be why the line moved further in the Bills direction this morning.

My only hope is Keon watched Cam Newton rip him apart and it pissed him off enough to actually put some effort in.  I would LOVE to see a pissed off, motivated Keon play.

 

Based on his behavior to date, he'll more likely shrug it off and go play a video game. I'm guessing McDermott assigned someone to get him to meetings on time, where he probably sits with his Airpods in. 

 

Please, universe, prove me wrong. Make him suddenly play great. (And make me a millionaire while you're at it.)

I would never, ever bet against my Bills, but if I were a degenerate gambler, this one would be tempting. Bills -2.5 playing away, which would typically give the home team a 2 or 3 point edge to start with ...

[Dr.Sack]

last game Vrabel’s team took three 15-yard roughing penalties.

 

the bills only had one. 

the team that win’s today isn’t the one who plays the dirtiest, but if that is the game Vrabel wants that is the game he will get.

So much for rewarding production and high character. They sit that guy and play a lazy, unproductive guy who lets his teammates down. Baffling and harmful.

Except Gabe is a BETTER and a more motivated blocker. This decision on its own feels bizarre.  A must win game and you sit BIG GAME GABE for this problem child. Ok, let's watch...

you realize he's only had one fumble since the beggining of last year right?

Yes, but that was a big fumble, at our own 10 yard line.  And, it came in the first NE game this season.
