I know it’s not often the Bills lose, especially back-to-back games

but Josh Allen led Bills teams have lost back-to-back games *exactly once* every season since 2020

The 2025 Bills have lost their last two games to the Patriots and Falcons, both in prime time

Drake London with the reach and takeaway touchdown in prime time

Too strong

Quinshon Judkins rushed just 12 times for 36 yards in Week 6

It was his lowest number of carries since his debut in Week 2

The Browns host the Dolphins in Week 7

Miami has allowed a league-high 806 rushing yards and a 5.59 yards per carry average to opposing running backs

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 1d

Patrick Mahomes is STILL the Chiefs leading rusher with 221 yards after 6 games

He has rushed for 30+ yards AND a touchdown in 4 of 6 games this season

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 1d

Baker Mayfield scrambles for the 1st down then launches one to Tez Johnson two plays later for the touchdown

A must-see sequence:

1

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 1d

Solid pick as well given the draft capital!

Ferguson is TE1

Kincaid is TE6 heading into tomorrow night

About 3 PPR points per game apart

but Ferguson has far more volume to believe in, at least until Lamb comes back, especially in Red Zone

Kincaid has the ceiling, but a lower floor

1

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 1d

Jake Ferguson is TE1 this season until proven otherwise

HUGE get for those that waited to draft a tight end and picked him

18.6 PPR points per game over his last 4

2 4

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 1d

Darren Waller has scored 4 TDs in his last 3 games

4 yard TD in Week 4
9 yard TD in Week 4
4 yard TD in Week 5
7 yard TD in Week 6

Extremely valuable role in the Red Zone

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 1d

Biggest miss of Week 6 is the split between Hassan Haskins + Kimani Vidal

Vidal logged a career-high 21 touches and dominated with 75% of the RB rush share

Good on you if you started Vidal 🫡

Week 6 Bounce Backs 👀

These players are set up for success this weekend after disappointing in the weeks prior

📽️ @colinmctamany.bsky.social

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 3d

Jets top target share leaders over the last 2 weeks:

23.8% Mason Taylor
22.5% Garrett Wilson
13.8% Breece Hall

Taylor has scored 11.5 and 17.7 points in his last 2 games

Broncos have allowed the 6th-fewest receptions to TEs, but Taylor’s role is worth investing in for Week 6

Colin McTamany @colinmctamany.bsky.social · 3d

I would go with Dak, Hall, Worthy among these options
