Until someone raises the trophy, most teams are one or two ligaments, broken bones, and/or concussions away from having the season disolve.*

Truth. The Chiefs, Eagles, Fins, Bills, Bengals, and Lions cannot afford to lose their starting quarterback. Probably the Niners and Cowboys as well.
Meanwhile, it’s not an if but a when that the schedule will be expanded to 18 games. People will bet on games with a 5th string qb that couldn’t make the practice squad, but yay for more football!
Especially since the Bills Strategy at that point was to keep committing pass interference and dare the refs to keep calling it. It was somehow fitting though, that the Bills kicker missed 2 field goals wide right. None of them however, were from 47 yards.
Every time Goff gets sacked or roughed up, or on the rare occasions he decides to run the ball, I’m holding my breath.
Ah yes, the legendary Legion of Boom technique.
Yes, and the LoB also got really good at doing it in such a way that the officials couldn’t easily see it, so they didn’t get called on it a vast majority of the time.
Trying to see what you can get away with (holds, pass interference, moving a split second before the snap, and so on) is basically part of football. Receivers also try to get away with OPI by being subtle too.
I don’t even get mad about missed calls unless they’re blatant.
