Sabres > Bills

Josh Allen feeling the presha

Allen completing a cool 50% of his passes. 

[HawkeyeJet]

Bills D isn't good enough.  Have to be able to at least slow the Chiefs down.  Bills D is average in my opinion, which is surprising because there is a lot invested on that side of the ball.

[New York Mick]

Allen’s improvement this year is ridiculous 

[fullblast]

That might turn out to be a key play. Chiefs could have had him sacked 10 yards. Instead, 20 yard completion.

[jago]

mahomes just ridiculous.

Sounds like the really sh*tty showcase on Price is Right.  Like this one:

 

https://www.bannersociety.com/2020/4/14/21215939/price-is-right-showcases-rankings-worst

Episode 9973D, May 8, 1996: New York Jets season tickets, six-night trip to New York City, two jet skis, six night trip to Bali

Bali seems lovely, there’s plenty to do in New York on someone else’s dime, and jet skis are awesome. If this Showcase just had those three prizes, it’d be downright wonderful.

The Jets tickets, though.

Let’s assume those are season tickets for the 1996 season. How’d the team do that year?

 

NFL.com

YIKES. The one win wasn’t at home, so this prize is more accurately described as “spend eight days watching the Jets lose in person.” This dreadful season wasn’t entirely surprising either, as the Jets had just gone 3-13 in 1995.

The Price Is Right has given out season tickets several times, but this is the only instance I could find in which the show awarded tickets to see a team outside of Southern California, where the show is taped. Why the Jets, of all teams?

 

Moreover, why does this Showcase include a trip to New York City and season tickets for the New York Jets? You have to live in or near New York for the tickets to be useful, in which case the value of the trip is greatly diminished.

You might be thinking you can just sell these tickets. But it’s 1996, so you’re getting actual paper tickets, and you have no easy way to sell them or transfer them online. eBay wasn’t much of a thing until 1997. Best case, you’re selling the whole package to someone who knows the team is bad and might not give you full price.

Slightly worse: you go try to scalp them in person every week.

Worse than that: you do this while not living near New York City.

Though that is still preferable to the absolute bottom: you attend every home game the ‘96 Jets play.

Here’s the best part: a real person had to figure out what to do with these tickets. A woman named Carol won this Showcase. I have no idea what she did with the tickets, and I desperately want to hear her story.

Most people took the cash value of what they won. For many it was the only way to pay the taxes. Probably what she did

The Bills record is misleading. They played 2 games vs the Jets

JOSH DARNOLD

[Icer]

Damn Allen pulling that patented Darnold out of bounds behind the LOS move

It's literally in my post. I want to be entertained.

wow what a disaster, McDermott/Allen should be embarrassed.

Blowouts suffered by teams I don't like are entertaining

[HawkeyeJet]

If that is a pass, it should also be intentional grounding.  He's out if bounds when he throws, so it does not reach the LOS and the nearest receiver is 10 yards down field.

[Lith]

 

[Jetlife33]

Haha McDermott 

[Beerfish]

Why was the game clock not running there?  What did i miss?

[Irish Jet]

Gotta go for that. Can’t do that with Mahomes on the other side.

[Jetsfan80]

Just now, Jetlife33 said:

Haha McDermott 

He doesn't trust Josh Allen!

[fullblast]

Might as well go for the TD. You're not beating KC with field goals.

[Spoot-Face]

Careful, I'm a bomb, yo.

[Jetsfan80]

2-possession game for KC entering the locker room.  Solid place to be.  Go Chiefs go!

[Skeet Ulrich]

All things being equal, down 9 isn't too bad for the Bills. That missed XP might come back to haunt them later.

Exactly. Field goals are not beating Mahomes

Ruled him out of bounds.  But Bills still had a TO, so would not have mattered.

out of bounds?  Lol...he looked like he was a full yard in bounds to me. 

[playtowinthegame]

Just a matter of time until the Chiefs pull away. The Jills are going home with no gas and no breaks.
