    Did Tomlin say that?

    No but why Tomlin would make the change now?

    It would make no sense

    Weather sure sounds like it will be a factor in the outcome of this one. Whoever coughs the ball up less, wins. Turnovers have been a weak spot for the Bills all season; hope that continues.

    Mason has definitely sparked the offence; would LOVE him to turn that into an all out fire on Sunday.

    IF he wins his 1st playoff game, I can hear "RUDY, RUDY, RUDY" chants starting all over Steeler Nation.:cool:

    We have not played conservative since Mason took over. I swear Tomlin has a F-It attitude with Mason out there. 3rd and 1, throw deep, 4th and 2 go for it.

    The weather slowed Tomlin's plan in Baltimore. I would expect Tomlin to be aggressive again with Mason on the field in Buffalo.

    I think we averaged over 40 running plays the last 3 games, I would think
    He follows script in Buffalo

    I also think that's the smartest game plan. Buffalo didn’t look great against Miami's run last night, although Achane is a lot faster than either of our backs. I still would like to try to play bully ball against them. I'd also play pretty conservative on defense. Don't give up big play and hope Allen gets frustrated and forces a couple as he's prone to do. If we get behind by 2 scores though, I abandon that and just start trying to hit big ones to Pickens, and don't punt at all. With our punter, punting mostly futile anyway.

    It was kind of an F-it approach in Cincy. Mason made the plays, so these decisions were made with some level of confidence in Mason in that regard. There is a confidence in the offense/coaching that just wasn't there before Mason came in. Its been good to see.

    if (wet) weather is factor, then I don't think we will see much of Jaylen Slippery Hands Warren

    try to keep it close? How about try to kick their BUTTS early and GET A NICE LEAD? Buff has been far from dominant this year....
    if that fails, then, yes, don't far far behind.

    Only if Miami won, we would have then played in KC on Saturday afternoon on Peacock

    People retire and lose their minds. That's why I'm still working and even have a few years on you Gramps. Can't wait for this prime time Friday Night Lights game! Won't even interfere with my nap. :drinks:

    (LOL - it's actually a Sunday morning 10am game out here on the left coast. My barn flakes should be settled by then.)

    I’ll take your word for it but I’m not chancing it


    Once, during Prohibition, I was forced to live for days on nothing but food and water.

    It's going to be freezing and wet, so definitely more Najee and less Warren this game.
