The quality of plays/catches in the NFL in 2025 is outstanding. We never saw catches like that a decade ago.

He hasn't thrown an interception yet but what has he done that equates to a great game so far?

10 years ago guys catching balls had to worry about getting blown up. Now they don't and we do get to see some pretty unreal skill as a result.

Why let your QB, who is having a great game, toss the ball on second down, while the offense is behind the sticks, when you can waste precious time by running Williams through molasses into a brick wall?

Run twice and try to convert 3rd and long not great strategy for success against Bills

He's had some great throws that have been dropped. The passing game has been much more effective than the run game.

I honestly have no idea what Payton is doing still calling run plays this late in the game when his defense has shown they can't stop anything.

Moss made some amazing plays, but now we're seeing them nearly every week. I don't think even Randy Moss made the type of diving/falling on the field catches we see now.

Ha. That's crazy. Bills 2-0 vs Chiefs and Lions, rest of the league 2-30 against them

I think that's just recency bias, tbh, but you could be right.

Game over. Third blow out in a row. The afternoon game should be close? Especially with Hurts at less than 100%.

To be fair the AFC Games looked trash on paper. NFC should be better.

Yeah, I'm not stoked about Hurts going against a defense that's stout against the run and plays zone most of the time. Has historically not been a great combo for Hurts.

I am a Buffalo fan the rest of the way.

Pretty clear where Denver has to improve.
Nix clearly something they can build around. Love Mims and not much else on offense.

Sadly Bills probably going to stall out next week but nice to take care of business today.

Would guess Chiefs-Texans early next Saturday and Bills-Ravens late on Sunday.
