Was Kirk not out of bounds?

ETA: Why was the clock running?

Same question. Ran it back, official signaled him down in bounds somehow and for the clock to run

That's crazy! Was wondering why the clock was running. He ran out forward.

Right knee hit in bounds

 

[SoBeDad]

Very nice drive by Houston.

Mills had a slow start - some near misses. Now, he looks as good as Stroud. Good pocket presence.

Did it? Ok then. I thought he ran out.

I have to be honest I didn’t even know Davis Mills was even still in the league, much less this good.

 

[Dez]

My gut feeling is to bench Allen for Stafford for sure and probably should bench Allen for Goff too but I left Allen in both leagues my teammates wanted to play him I just have a very bad feeling about tonight Houston is no joke on D.

I hate when I am right and don't do what was needed to be done.

FBG had Allen ranked 3rd and Stafford 5th and since FBG rankings are wrong 90% of the time when I use them well I should known better.

 

[Dez]

I have to be honest I didn’t even know Davis Mills was even still in the league, much less this good.

Mills ranked 19th QB this week and Allen 3rd.

 

[Buckna]

Knew I shouldn't have sat Higgins, Mills loves him. Less than 3 targets a game the first 8 games, 7 targets each of the last two games, already 7 targets in the first half

 

[Major]

Very nice drive by Houston.

Mills had a slow start - some near misses. Now, he looks as good as Stroud. Good pocket presence.

I'd say he's looked better than Stroud overall. That comeback versus JAX is something CJ couldn't do. Mills is robotic. CJ gets those lost puppy dog eyes and often too much in his feelings. Hopefully this performance will inspire CJ to be better.

 

[Buckna]

Darn it, guessing that's a concussion for Nico. He took a shot to the head on that catch. Hope I'm wrong

I thought that was more wind knocked out.

Yeah, watched it again. I don’t see a hit to his noggin.

ETA: he’s fine

I'm glad to be wrong, sure looked like helmet to helmet to me even on slow-mo (not targeting, incidental, led with his shoulder like you said.)

 

[SoBeDad]

Geez Buffalo defense is horrendous.

Tua & Achane, Baker & Tucker, now Mills and Marks. 30+ point games.

How many injuries do they have and who will return?

 

[GroveDiesel]

Geez Buffalo defense is horrendous.

They’re really old and they’ve had a ton of injuries. And a lot of their old guys are playing with injuries right now. They’re going to need to turnover a good portion of their defense thid off-season to get younger and faster. Of course the problem is they keep drafting defensive players and most of them are just mediocre lately.

Mills is probably going to have a long career as a very capable backup.

Wel

I have to be honest I didn’t even know Davis Mills was even still in the league, much less this good.

Welcome to the Davis Mills Experience.

Think he might have made himself some money this year. Has been playing on a pair of 1 year contracts.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

Davis Mills was even still in the league, much less this good.

Mills was the Houston Starter a few years ago. He stunk. So it's a bit surprising to me that he's playing really well.

Mills runs hot and cold. He's great when hot, but awful when cold. He was awful the first 3 qtrs against JAX but turned it on in the 4th. We were lucky to beat the Titans last week, he took some bad sacks for example. I do wonder with better coaching how he might do though, he unfortunately was stuck on some terrible Texans teams in full rebuild mode and got a bit of a raw deal.

 

[SoBeDad]

The Texans have a good group of WRs.

How many Bill's WRs would make the Texan squad?

 

[Buckna]

Wel

Weren't there reports that someone tried to trade for him earlier this season? Maybe the Bengals this year before they got Flacco?

 

[Encyclopedia Brown]

Welcome to the Davis Mills Experience

Bears homers will always have a special place in their heart for Davis Mills. His touchdown heave in the last seconds of the last game of the 2023 season ended up giving the Bears back-to-back #1 picks along with DJ Moore.

 

[GroveDiesel]

WTF you doing Josh? Throw it away.

 

[Buckna]

Josh doing his best Shadeur Sanders impression.

Not good for my fantasy teams

Yep, Bengals

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Oh god I think Bernard had his elbow hyperextended.

My big offseason LB acquisition.

 

[GregR]

Injured player up and going straight to tunnel now

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Oh yeah I have Hunter in a big play IDP league.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

the bills have turned into a pumpkin

 

[GregR]

I wasn't sure that getting Hunter for his salary vs keeping Jonathan Greenard was the right call. But Hunter has been well worth it.

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Take the ref to the blue tent!

 

[travdogg]

Win/win swap

 

[travdogg]

Bills are gonna run out of defenders at this rate. They are already down like 3-4 starters.

 

[Statorama]

So they don’t have a backup ref on standby? Makes me think they don’t take referees all that seriously. “Eh we’ll be fine with one less guy”

 

[travdogg]

We're gonna need more tents.

 

[Buckna]

I wasn't sure that getting Hunter for his salary vs keeping Jonathan Greenard was the right call. But Hunter has been well worth it.

It's been pretty impressive considering he's getting up there in age. Still playing at a high level, my guess is we extend him for another year again but hopefully get that cap number down. We do need to be thinking of someone to take over soon though and a pricy FA is not gonna work with extensions coming for Anderson and Stroud.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

 

[GregR]

Woody jogged off

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

50 (Rousseau?) landed on his legs. Didn’t look like anything bent awkwardly. Hope it’s just a bruise or something.

 

[GregR]

No blue tent

 

[Jayded]

About time to set up a circus tent to collect all of the injuries

 

[VikingFrog]

Nothing in the video seems bad for an injury. Which almost makes me feel worse about woody.

Seems like they were checking out his knee cap area.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Bernard in a sling. I saw what I saw - Bernard had a dude wrapped up, friendly fire caused his arm to straighten, and a Texan came in and hit his elbow. I’m certain it bent backwards. Dunno what that means long term.

 

[travdogg]

A little surprised they aren't going for this.

He’s fine. Jogged off, they showed him on the sideline with no trainer. He had his helmet.

 

[Smack Tripper]

I've never seen so many injuires in a game, its bad when even the ref goes down

 

[SoBeDad]

Take the ref to the blue tent!

>>Referee injury. By video, left calf (not Achilles) Man short for game for regular season gameIn playoffs there is an extra replacement ref<<

Then score a damn touchdown!

They definitely were (until the flag)

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Whoops.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

If you plan on some late 4th Q shenanigans, much easier with one less Ref on the field

-Feels like a WWE match where the ref suddenly is knocked out as one wrestler (typically the hero pins the turn heel) is about to win and nobody is there for the 3-count

Definite fumble

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Did he make a ‘football move’?

yup
