I wasn’t planning on writing a post until much later, when my emotions have calmed down. Well, after hearing today’s news, I felt like I had to write something. I am not going to break down the game like I normally do. Again, the loss is still too fresh. So, here are my big 3 questions after our heartbreaking loss to the Broncos : Was it a catch? In my eyes, yes. I don’t think I will ever be convinced otherwise. Even my 62-year-old Mother knew that was a catch! In her words: catch the ball, knee goes down, end of the play, it's not rocket science. Especially after a very similar play happened for the Rams last night, and was called a catch. If it is not clear, then the call is supposed to favor the offense. I am just not sure where the disconnect is. Is the NFL rigged? Sometimes part of me t...

  Disclaimer: I am a full time OBGYN and am in no way, shape, or form, a sport analyst or journalist. These are simply my reactions and thoughts. Wow, what a Sunday! Buffalo has officially eliminated Jacksonville from the playoffs. This is something so many sports analysts did not think would happen. However, they must have forgotten that Buffalo has Josh Allen!   Here are some of my thoughts about our Wildcard win against the Jaguars: I obviously have to start off with Josh Allen. He went 28/35 with 273 passing yards, 3 touchdowns, and no turnovers. Just as a reminder, this is against a top 5 defense, and a team that was on an 8-game winning streak. He is now the first player in NFL history to complete over 80% of passes and rush for multiple touchdowns in a playoff game. In playoff games since 2020, he is: first in PFF grade (91.3), first in total yards per game (306), and second for total touchdowns (32). Josh Allen is one of the best, if not the best, quarterbacks in ...

  Disclaimer: I am a full time OBGYN and am in no way, shape, or form, a sport analyst or journalist. These are simply my reactions and thoughts. Somehow it is already January and Buffalo has officially played their last game in Highmark Stadium. Of course, I wish Buffalo was hosting a playoff game. Unfortunately, that isn't the case. But in the final game: Buffalo did win, Allen did take a snap, and Cook got enough yards to maintain the lead. James Cook now officially has the most rushing yards for the 2025 season! I am glad the Bills were able to figure out his contract preseason and come to an agreement.  Here are some of my thoughts as we enter the post-season: The Jaguars have been hot recently, I do think out of the division winners, they are the team to beat. Part of me wishes we had the 5th or even 7th seed instead of the 6th. We know we can beat the Patriots and the Steelers, but we don't always play our best against Jacksonville. In the last 10 meetings, our record i...
