Other than the bad snap on second down on the JA17 Int drive I think it was the Bills D that shut them down.

The bad snap was probably caused by the Center being owned by Ankou and Jones two run stuffing DT's

They were stuffing runs and pushed the Hawks center into the back field where he stepped on Geno causing him to fall.

Did you see Geno crying on the bench?

Monday Morning QB - Comparison

Comparing our two anonymous QB's, identified only by random numbers...

Week 7

QB7 - 10-21 (47.6%) for 86 yds (4.1 yds/att) 0 TD 0 Int QBR - 58.8 Road loss

QB 17 - 21-33 (63.6%) for 323 yds (9.8 yds/att) 2 TD 0 Int QBR - 116.1 Home win

QB17 by a mile

It's now 4-3 QB17


Week 8

QB7 - 25-37 (67.6%) for 285 yds (7.7 yds/att) 1 TD 0 Int QBR - 99.5 Home win

QB17 - 24-34 (70.6%) for 283 yds (8.3 yds/att) 2 TD 1 Int QBR - 102.9 Road win

Very, very close. If we awarded ties this week would be a tie. But we don't so the ever so slight edge goes to QB17

It's now 5-3 QB17

It was a really cool stadium and atmosphere. It would have been a bit more enjoyable in better weather, but it's Seattle so it's to be expected.

The game obviously great as a Bills fan, but what was really crazy was the Mafia representation. The game was sold out and was probably 85% Hawks fans, but Seattle had the ball first and you would have almost thought it was a Bills home game. Seattle went 3 and out and then we went on what seemed like a 10 minute TD drive, overcoming multiple penalties, and it just kept going like that the rest of the game.

I was pleasantly surprised by how chill the Seattle fans were. Maybe if they had a better they might have been a little more feisty, but before and after the game they were all very cool.

The picture is towards the end of the game when most of the crowd had gone, but you can see how many Bills fans are still in the lower right stands.

My son I had a great time and I would definitely go there again. But first I've got to get him to Buffalo for a game.

BTW that drive was 9 mins and change.

TB12 was doing color and he couldn't billieve how easily the Bills kept overcoming the penalties to keep the drive alive.

The 2 90 yard plus drives in the same game were the first for Buffalo since the SB years.

The first drive was actually 110 yards with the penalties

BTW 2 Coleman owned Riq Woolen the whole rest game after that first pass defense in the endzone

It definitely does look like a cool stadium thanks for posting a pic. If you can get to Buffalo before 2026 and experience the original Ralph Wilson stadium (Highmark).

It would be so Buffalo to let them off the hook or out of the tuna net

I hope they have the killer instinct

I hope we can make that happen. I was there 2 seasons ago for the Monday night home opener against Tennessee. It was the greatest experience from the tailgate to the game I've ever had at a sporting event.

I used to live out there, watched Jim Zorn and Steve Largent play in the old stadium. My Sis still lives out there. I hope to go out and watch the EAGLES play there.

Don't forget the "Boz"

They were in the AFC back then and the Bills Coach Chuck Knox went there when he left here.

If the Bills don't make the playoffs it will be a complete disaster of a second half of the season. I'm confident they win the division. How do they get past KC is the question. Maybe Baltimore knocks KC out and and then the Bills beat the Ravens. I'm as effin tired of Mahomes as I was Brady haha

Here is the Mid Season Report Cards on every team.

ESPN has the Bills at 99% to make the playoffs and 98% to win the division

Critical Stat +11 in turnover ratio
