The start to DeMario Davis' 2024 -- now at 35 years old -- continues to build the case that we need some type of documentary on this dude as the best 30+ year old resurgence in modern NFL history

The film of Giants rookie CB Andru Phillips has been sensational thru two weeks. Coverage. Explosive click-and-close skills. He's been everywhere.

My take on the #Bills season: This team was *very* Josh Allen centric. Other elite teams have built awesome full rosters around their QB. Play-calling, OL, WR depth. Bills lacked in those areas relative to those clubs. Buffalo needs to make upgrades.

Tonight is NFL Honors and. although he's very unlikely to win, Josh Allen was the Most Valuable Player in the 2023 season.

idk why Ken Dorsey would leave Buffalo / follow Brian Daboll wherever. He’s in line to be an OC regardless. Staying with Josh Allen would be the best option for him. As a springboard up the coaching ranks.

On Sam Darnold / Josh Allen debate: . Darnold was better prospect. But had concerning flaws. He's underwhelmed in NFL in two yrs but has been minimally helped by Jets. Allen has exceeded expectations and Bills have done good job building around him. Right now, Allen > Darnold.

Josh Allen was pressured on 41% of this drop backs yesterday (per PFF) vs. best pressure-creation defense from a season ago. The quartet of T.J. Watt, Melvin Ingram, Alex Highsmith, and Cam Heyward had A DAY.

Given how the league is with fines, I'm a little surprised Trey Hendrickson didn't get one for his clearly dirty roll into Josh Allen's legs on MNF in Week 17.

Ed Oliver has slowly but surely inched toward becoming the interior rusher the Bills were hoping when they drafted him inside the top 10 in 2019. Not an elite player yet. But an easy fifth-round option pick up. He’s gotten better every season.

Re-watch the Bills and Chiefs divisional round game before trying to talk yourself into your team drafting a QB with an average arm and average athleticism.

.@Vol_Football's Velus Jones Jr. with an official 4.31 at 6-0 and 204 pounds is the most impressive speed performance I've seen today.

That 3rd and 9 QB sneak from inside their own 10 in a meaningless regular-season finale from the Giants yesterday may have been the most embarrassing thing I've ever seen in an NFL game.

BTW, it’s been about 20 years. And I love the current white helmets/uniforms. But the Bills need to bring these back when the NFL allows multiple helmets. Absolute fire.

- A fresh John Brown for the playoffs will be huge for Bills. So IR’ing him now is sensible. - Buffalo should put in a waiver claim on Kenny Stills. - Bills could use some more production from Dawson Knox . - Big opportunity over next 3-4 games for Gabriel Davis.

I know how valuable (and good) Taron Johnson is. Does so much as Buffalo's nickel DB, and the Bills play more nickel than anyone. But Dorian Williams needs to be on the field in some scenarios for Buffalo. He was defending the run at a high level before Matt Milano returned.

IDK how I didn't tweet this earlier, but the Chris Fowler, Louis Riddick, Dan Orlovsky booth for MNF is tremendous. Fowler's excitement aligns with the gravity of each play so well. Very knowledgeable too. Riddick & Orlovsky give detailed critiques/analysis in rhythm all game.

Two reasons I think Aaron Rodgers ultimately stays in Green Bay, or, I guess I should say, will not go to Denver

Bills won a second-round playoff game against a top-end defense. In a contest that did not favor them because of the weather and got that victory mostly due to a super-strong defensive effort. Sign of a complete team.

Super-impressive game from Josh Allen. 366 total yards. Bills ST was bad. Defense plenty good enough. Shawn Hoculi and his crew made a tightly contested divisional game nearly unwatchable. Plethora of tick-tack flags. Absolutely no consistency on roughing the passer calls.

Many in #BillsMafia remember the Gronk late hit on Tre'Davious White . And all those #BillsMafia members would immediately forget it the first time Gronk scores a TD from Josh Allen and their celebration is pretending to shotgun a beer.

My opinion on Josh Allen after watching Week 1 and Week 2 film. - He's having issues deciding whether to rifle the ball downfield or put air under it, and he's mostly been wrong in his choices so far .- He's passed up some easy underneath throws.- Feels like early-season jitters.

Josh Allen & Von Miller restructures are locks. Will happen any day now. They'll free around $32M in space for #Bills who are around $14M-$17M *over* the cap. Would then be around $16M under. Question is: will Buffalo restructure anyone else like Dawkins, White, Diggs, or Milano?.

Kyler Murray. Pocket patience. Vital skill for QB success. Most collegiate signal-callers don’t have this in their repertoire.

Patriots traded a RD2 pick for Mohamed Sanu. 😬 . Falcons used that pick + a RD5 to trade for TE Hayden Hurst. They also got S Jaylinn Hawkins in that deal. Ravens got J.K. Dobbins with that RD2 pick and used the RD5 pick to trade for Calais Campbell. 🤯.

JUST AN IDEA, don't lose your minds (and I do still think it's more sensible for BUF to just draft a WR early-ish). but. Bills get: DeAndre Hopkins, Isaiah Simmons.Cardinals get: Ed Oliver, Gabriel Davis + RD5.

With the long-term in mind, here's how I'd rank 1st and 2nd year QBs based on what they've done individually, entering Week 6 (must have started 2+ games): . 1a. Sam Howell .1b. Brock Purdy .3. C.J. Stroud .4. Anthony Richardson .5. Desmond Ridder.6. Kenny Pickett.7. Bryce Young.

How could the voters pick Lamar Jackson as First-Team All Pro and Josh Allen Second-Team All Pro but Allen MVP? . Very easily. They voted five *other* Ravens on the two All-Pro Teams and no other Bills. That explains it perfectly.

When it comes to wings, I've long thought Bar Bill has stood alone. It's still the best. Classic medium + Cajun honey butter bbq. But I had Nine Eleven wings last Saturday. They are the new entrants into the elite tier. I'd put the mediums against any. Even Bar Bill.

This, which never fully came to fruition, was Buffalo sending Mitch Trubisky to Washington Football Team. Was assured this morning it was just about done, which is why I tweeted “might.”. I’m now 0-2 on these nearly consummated trades. I get it if you’re ticked. Wasn’t for clicks.
Might be a surprise #Bills trade on the horizon. Stay tuned.

Iowa's Jack Campbell had a damn good workout in Indianapolis yesterday. One of best workouts we've ever seen from a linebacker. The performance is on par with Kuechly/Warner/LVE. I don't care when he's picked. He's a decade-long, three-down stud (who can really cover) at MLB.
