Giving short guys everywhere a bad name

This is asinine. The job McDermott did with this roster - and other iterations of mediocrity - has been so impressive. He’s been given Josh Allen a bunch of C+ players with A- contracts. Beane can’t evaluate defensive line talent to save his life and doesn’t even try to evaluate WRs. Awful decision

Are these German celebrities or am I too old to know most? 🤣

I told my 12 yo son a few minutes ago that we are so spoiled getting to watch Josh every week. He’s just a different species

(2/?) Like, objectively the exact opposite of how you’re positioning it.

PFF grades for each - TB is ranked 72/87 MLBs and lost his job to Shaq Thompson.

Bishop ranks 23/98 at SS, 14th since week 8.

A huge part of why they’ve been a sieve to big plays on the ground has been Bernard’s play.

(1/?) Reading this as a Bills fan and can’t get past the part where you say “Cole Bishop has struggled at safety” and follow it by noting Bernard might not be back … Bishop has been EXCELLENT for the past 10 weeks or so and Bernard has been TERRIBLE all season …

NYT really felt compelled to write the most banal, “no-shit” story ever. Can they write a story about whether squirrels feel bad about burying nuts next?

… and largely, Buffalo hasn’t been able to. Receivers have no separation and Allen has to buy as much time as (super)humanly possible time after time to give them a chance to uncover.

This might be the worst collection of skill position players in the league, even if you count James Cook.

To the point that Buffalo’s leading receiver, Khalil Shakir, ranks 43rd in the NFL in yards, and the 2nd best ranks 59th! I don’t care how well they can rush the ball, if they ever have to throw, Allen is doing it on his own. Defenses have stacked the box all year and dared Buffalo to pass -
December 8, 2025 at 6:50 PM
I truly do appreciate advanced metrics like this for telling stories and normalizing the league against baselines, etc. BUT anyone who has watched any Bills football this year can tell you this offense is hands down the worst Bills O in Allen’s career and has ZERO receiving threats. It’s anemic.
December 8, 2025 at 6:47 PM
What’s the passing/rushing split? They have perhaps the worst group of pass catchers in the NFL coupled with an offensive philosophy that’s literally designed to keep the ball out of Josh Allen’s hands.

What kind of bizarro world did this guy live though? Because it sure as hell wasn’t reality

Dude I love how you’ve clearly spent time in this part of the state and your references to Brighton or East Ave are spot on.

Check out the Pistons 👀

So much is riding on him - they desperately need not just speed and athleticism but scheme changes from the coaches to highlight those

What a sign 👏

Congratulations!!!

What was the deal with Oliver? Heard o the broadcast he was stepped on at practice - did he need stitches? Or was it soft tissue?

It’s that show - Kevin Can F Himself. That’s our country now. Half the country sees the sitcom and half sees reality.

Better send a few thousand more troops than planned. That sign looks extra menacing

That was a great play from an oftentimes bleak afternoon for this defense. They’re lucky they’ve played this poorly and still been able to win … hopefully it turns around and they can stop leaving massive parts of the field wide open. Nowhere to go but up though

Love how far the QB class of 2018 has come and how good these four all look. All top 10 QBs in my eyes.

It’s just stunning to me that he so plainly shows his profound stupidity and every single country on the planet can witness it yet we have friends and relatives who ALSO saw it - along with his bigotry and fascistic tendencies - and decided to vote for it. It makes us all look as pathetic as them.
