The exposure on this one, due to the sun, makes it look like baby blue ... but the real blue is a deep royal ...

Here's a question: why take a knee on the extra point? What if they committed a penalty on the kickoff after the Bills managed to advance it some. Game can't end on a defensive penalty, so the Bills would be kicking for the win. I just didn't see the cost of kicking it. Am I missing something?

They gave Allen several chances at the end there. One was killed by penalties; another by a pick. They were bad for parts and good for parts, as was Allen.

Be prepared to see that play over and over again. Play of the week candidate, play of the year candidate, best play by each team videos, etc, etc ...

I think Tre might have made the play, but Poyer knocked him out if it. His hands were there before that.

Norman - positive; others - close contact

Over $400k now. I think it's awesome they're getting that much money. I think it's great that fans support Josh Allen. It seems like a strange commentary on our society that it took a sport figure's grandmother passing away for them to get it.

Trust the Gorton's Fisherman ...

Yeah, but in that hypothetical world, I would bet it. 3rd and 3 on the Bills' 12 with 33 seconds, having walked over the Bills' defense for three straight drives (184 yards, 2 touchdowns and in the red zone on the third) ... Zimmer made a great play, which likely saved the game. For the team that we want the Bills to be, that was a bad game and a lucky outcome. It was basically a coin flip game, which isn't good enough. Glad they won, but they've got work to do.

After Davis dropped a pass in the end zone that hit him right in the hands when he had nobody right on him, which is why it was only 3. If Newton holds on to that ball, the Patriots are winning it in regulation, 28-24, no doubt.

Wow, the Patriots just 'cause Buffalo'd the Bills a win.

No Brady, no Gronk, no Edelman, no Gilmore ... no excuses!

Sam is better in almost every aspect of the game, but Jeff is (usually) better in one very valuable and hard to find area. Sam is a very good generalist, while Jeff is a very good specialist. That gives Sam a lot more ways to shine, keeping him from having a bad season, while Jeff pretty much scores goals or sucks (perception-wise.)

Gashed is a little strong ... 11 carries for 60 yds.

Surprised this wasn't posted. Knox tested positive for COVID-19. Smith (and two other PS/PUP TEs) quarantining. I haven't followed the NFL's rules too closely, but how are the Bills able to play today?

This seems like a COVID-friendly contract, much like Hall's. Finances suck right now. Nobody knows when that will change. Postpone longterm contract talks for a year, hoping there will be better information. As for listing Sam as a center, that's a smart move for trade value down the road. "Despite playing on the wing in Buffalo, he's a natural center. We'll move him over to fill our desperate need for centers." 😁

FuboTV.

I want to say Peca, but the ending taints it (not saying it was all on him, by any means.) Had they gotten a deal done in 2000, he could have been an easy choice.

You know, I've never really thought about that, but you're (in my experience) correct. In Rochester, we say "I'm on 390" or "there's an accident on 490." When I get over to the Buffalo area, it's "there's an accident on the 190." Weird (both that it's true and that I never noticed that before.)

The flaw is that the boundaries for determining quarantining are not (necessarily) based on practical reasons, but rather on the regions over which the decision makers exert control. We (Western NY) have little in common with and are far more removed from NYC than the portions of the tri-state area that fall outside of the state.

What was with Diggs walking back to the line in the two minute drill? He's been a great receiver, so I'll cut him some slack, but that was bush league.

Does that make you the Sabres' favorite fighting Frenchman? (and well done.)

And only one of those has ever won the Super Bowl.

Makes you wonder if anyone is thinking about COVID.
