- Brian Daboll probably isn't a genius and he probably won't save whatever franchise he goes to. This offense looks good because Josh Allen is phenomenal.
- Leslie Frazier probably isn't a genius either. The Bills played a bunch of offensively challenged teams this year (Jest twice, Fish twice, Jags, Texans, WFT, Panthers, Falcons) and the defense starts six first-round picks. This helped him look good. His defenses in Tampa were not good and he had a 39.8% win percentage as a head coach in Minnesota. And he just gave up 45 yards and 3 points in 10 seconds to go to OT.
- I miss Tre'Davious White. No one can stop Tyreek Hill but White would've done better than Dane Jackson.
- Why was Dane Jackson, the 239th pick in the 2020 draft, on Tyreek Hill?
- Allen is a bad man. When was the last time you saw a QB knock a defensive player out of the game? But I don't think this is a good way to build a lengthy career.
- If they're going to continue to run designed rushing plays for Allen they should get a fullback.
- At a minimum, they need to get a big thumping running back who can get 3 tough yards so that Allen doesn't always have to. Guys like Leonard Fournette don't grow on trees but he was available for peanuts two years ago. Guys like Alexander Mattison, D'Onta Foreman, Devontae Booker, Mark Ingram, Rex Burkhead and Carlos Hyde are always available.
- The overtime rules are what they are. Buffalo couldn't stop KC when they needed to. If the Bills were playing the Colts or the Ravens it would've been different. That said, the outcome feels somewhat inequitable, the fans want something else so the league should respond. I have ideas.
- Make OT a 10 or 15 minute period. Team with the most points wins. If they're tied play another 10 or 15 minute period.
- Both teams get the ball once. If they both score TD in their first possessions, the next team to score any points wins.
- Use the college OT system.
- Have a FG kick-off, moving back 5 yards at a time until someone misses.
- The head coaches wrestle Greco-Roman style at midfield. First guy to pin the other advances.
- Each team designates one player to box at midfield. First guy to knock out the other advances.
- Erect a cage at midfield and the punters have an MMA fight. Winner advances.
- Each team designates one player to do the NY Times Mini. Guy with the fastest time advances.
- A player is randomly chosen from each team. Both have 15 minutes to complete as many questions as they can from the Analytical Reasoning section of an LSAT (which is also randomly selected from a book of ten practice tests). Guy with the best score advances. If they tie, the punters have a knife fight at midfield, first guy to draw blood advances.
- Romo was probably right that Buffalo should've kicked off short of the endzone to run off some clock with 0:13 left. I suspect, however, that McDermott did not want to be the second Bills coach to lose a playoff game on a kick return with no time left.
- Only six punts, very few penalties, no gross injuries, receivers running free all over the place, QBs looking like superheroes, 5-5 combined on fourth down, lots and lots of points, defensive futility. This is what the league wants.

That game was an unbelievable offensive spectacle. And I may not know much about strategy, but to me Romo is pretty good at explaining the game. He totally called it when he said the Bills should keep the kick in play to burn down the clock.
kidlet got into colorado, so she's got a choice to make.
I know I'd have a tough time deciding between Colorado and Delaware...
I love a good Zman rant. Perhaps the Bills could offer him a roster spot if the NYT Mini option for settling overtime is selected.
oddly, rootsy, i think delaware is atop the leaderboard at the moment. she feels comfortable with the coaches and kids on the cheer team, and that's her most important criterion. reasonable minds may disagree.
Colorado is pricey out of state, if I remember correctly.
Use TR's address for in-state tuition.
the large father!
your tribe battled back from a 15-point deficit at charleston tonight, took a lead with 5 seconds left, and...lost.
I can say, without hesitation, that owning a dog is the most over-rated experience of my life. I would give zwoman's dog away in an instant, despite the fact that everyone says what a wonderful dog she is.
I take it the cold morning walks to do its business is wearing thin. Or has it chewed a few sneakers from the collection?
CNN headline just now:
A bomb cyclone with the power of a hurricane will unleash snow and blizzard-like conditions this weekend
Good lord that's dramatic
Seems like this should not be a thing
