Volume isn't as high as his best years but nevertheless he undoubtedly is playing MUCH better than whatever last season was this year

Highlights from ESPN.com (Note: These links will expire in a few days)

  1. Ja'Quan McMillian rips the ball from James Cook on the Bills' first play for a Broncos turnover.
  2. Russell Wilson spins out of pressure and throws a dime to Courtland Sutton, who somehow keeps his toes in for a Broncos TD.
  3. Josh Allen throws his second interception of the first half, leading to a Will Lutz field goal to extend Denver's lead.
  4. Josh Allen and James Cook botch the exchange on a handoff for the Bills' fourth turnover of the game.
  5. Russell Wilson sells a fake handoff to free Javonte Williams up for a wide-open Broncos TD.
  6. Josh Allen keeps it and reaches across the goal line to give the Bills their first lead of the game.
  7. The Bills get called for pass interference that puts the Broncos in field-goal position, then Wil Lutz gets two cracks at the game-winner because Buffalo is penalized for having 12 men on the field.

So the Broncos just ran out their FG unit and impressively hit a FG with the clock running down to half time. But I was under the impression that the rule is that when the offense substitutes, the defense is also afforded the opportunity to substitute, which would have allowed the Bills to take their sweet ass time and run the clock down to half time before the Broncos could get the kick off. So is that not the rule?

It’s so weird. He is consistently bottom 5 or 10 in almost all stats, and yet his career record is 13-7. The Steelers haven’t had particularly stunning offenses the last two years, and their defenses have been statistically middle of the pack. It’s almost crazy that he has a winning record considering these are his game stats in his wins this season.

  • 15/30, 222 yards, 1 td, 1 int, 71.8 rating
  • 16/28, 235 yards, 2 tds, 108.5 rating
  • 18/32, 224 yards, 1 td, 88.5 rating
  • 17/25, 230 yards, 97.1 rating
  • 19/30, 160 yards, 1 td, 88.2 rating
  • 14/23, 126 yards, 75.6 rating

that means per win, he’s averaging

  • 16.5/28, 199.5 yards, 0.8 td, 0.1 int, 79.2 rating

I can’t think of a single team that would have a winning record with this quarterback play, and yet the Steelers continue to win. It’s so odd.

Just thinking out loud about the salary cap. I love salary capped leagues, makes things much more interesting. But I wonder if it would be better if the cap should be split (not necessarily 50/50) between offense and defense.

I did not know this was the #1 defense and haven't watched them enough. I feel like this is a defense a lot of people are sleeping on and don't fully appreciate.

I honestly believe that other than actually winning the Super Bowl, there's no better time for an NFL fanbase than the first years of a team having a young QB that looks like they might be "the guy" of the future

I'd argue it's even better than being a perennial playoff powerhouse or a team that continually is seen as a favorite

Less stress. If you're a true contender with an experienced QB, every loss kills you. If you lose with a young QB doing something idiotic but they put up 300 yards and 3 TDs, you still leave the game optimistic. I call this the Josh Allen. I definitely feel like the Bills fanbase were happier two years ago when Allen was breaking out compared to now when he's seen as a star QB who should be leading the Bills to the Super Bowl.

Josh strikes me as Mad Dog 20/20. Maybe OG formula Four Loko

https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2023/upshot/nfl-playoff-picture.html

The NFC now has 4 teams with a 95%+ chance of making the playoffs.

The 5th through 7th teams are also highly probably between 74-83%

The only other team with even a shot at sneaking into the playoffs with a 20%+ probability in the NFC, is TB.

There are 8 NFC teams 2+ games below .500 already

The NFC playoffs will likely feature, SF, PHI, DAL, DET, MIN, SEA and probably NO and if not NO, it will be TB... That's basically your NFC playoff field for 2023, only seeding left to decide.

Meanwhile over in the AFC the picture couldn't me more unclear beyond the Chiefs.

The Chiefs now have a 99% playoff chance and 60% chance of being the 1 seed, beyond that...

There are 10 teams between 25% and 90% fighting for the final 6 spots.... and no one else above 90%.

More crazy, there are 12 teams in the AFC within 2 games of each other with 8 weeks left. (records ranging from 6-3 to 4-5)

There are only 3 teams in the AFC 2+ games below .500

The AFC could realistically end up with 10 or more teams over .500 this year, with only 7 of them obviously able to make the playoffs.

Anyway, I just thought it was interesting how completely different the conferences are shaping up as we head toward the back stretch.

With the NFC playoff picture almost completely decided already, while over in the AFC it looks like almost every team will be in the playoff hunt headed into the final couple weeks if things keep going the same direction.

vs. Bears vs. Packers @ Saints @ Bears vs. Broncos

The race for the top two seeds in the NFC is going to be very interesting.

Dan Campbell is at the point of being a Chuck Norris meme with how many he has. These are all not only real calls but these were ALL successful calls as well: (not in any order)

  • Up 7-0 in the 1st quarter, Dan Campbell called an onside kick against the Rams.
  • Dan Campbell called a fake punt on the same drive as the onside kick
  • Dan Campbell called a second fake punt in the same game in the 3rd quarter
  • Dan Campbell called a fake punt from his own 17 yard line, 5 minutes into the 2023 season against the defending super bowl champions.
  • Dan Campbell called a run play out of shot gun on 4th and 5 in the 1st quarter vs the Chargers
  • Up 7 points in the 3rd, Dan Campbell went for it from his own 27 yard line on a 4th and 8 against the Vikings
  • In the same game to ice it on 3rd and 7 with about 1:30 left in the 4th, Dan Campbell calls a pass play to Penei Sewell.. the offensive tackle.
  • 4th and 3 from their own 35 - Dan Campbell calls a fake punt against the Seahawks in the 1st quarter
  • On 4th and 1, instead of kicking the field goal, Dan Campbell goes for it and prevents Aaron Rodgers another shot, eliminating them from reaching the playoffs.

Not game related but also fun MCDC facts:

  • Dan Campbell drinks 40 ounces of coffee and 4 shots of espresso per day.
  • Dan Campbell wanted an actual live lion on the sidelines for home games but said "the league frowns on that"

Gibbs has 676 total yards on 121 touches averaging 5.6 yards a touch

Bijan has 820 total yards with 5.3 a touch.

Gibbs has been on a tear since returning from injury averaging 142 total yards the last 3 games. It took him a few weeks to get up to nfl speed and it looks like he’s taken off, his game breaking speed, recieving ability, ability to take hits and is among the top of the league in broken tackles.

Bijan has looked fantastic too. Unreal agility and elusiveness, pass catching ability, and has shown he can be a bell cow too. But he doesn’t have the top speed that Gibbs possesses, and he might not be in the best spot in Atlanta

Going into the draft it was looked at as Bijan was a generational running back, kind of a Saquon kind of back, and Gibbs was more of a 10-15 touches a game outside the tackles speed back, and will never be a workhorse or carry a load.

I think the view on him has changed. I know it’s very early in his career but Gibbs looks to be showing very similar flashes to guys like Jamaal Charles, and Chris Johnson.

Bijan was picked 8th Gibbs was taken 12th. Who would you rather have regardless of draft position and who do you think will end up being the better player?
