Kozak looked to be passing Krebs for awhile, but since Kozak's injury Krebs has picked up his game a bit. Either way Kozak and Krebs are 4th line guys. Östlund has 3 goals and 6 points and earned a spot in the middle 6. Kulich now has competition for that spot. Gotta' love the competition.

Cool video but that was young Cher, not Carol Burnett.

Electronics are reliable when operated within their proper temperature range and keeping them in this safe operational environment extends their life. Even your laptop has a small fan in it but much of the laptop's thermal design is handled by making its mechanical design (such as the frame and the case) a heat sink for the electrical components. Electronics components in these massive data servers will throw out a lot of heat and if left unchecked they will fall out of their safe operating temperature and fail. Picture racks and racks of printed circuit boards, each with millions of circuits running high speed calculations. Blowers move cool air either over or through the boards. So A/C compressors are needed. Some really large systems have liquid cooling running through the equipment rack "cold walls" that are analogous to a car radiator system. A liquid cooling system also needs a heat exchanger. So you need power for the computers/servers, and for cooling systems, and for the buildings environmental control. They set it up in a closed loop system to maintain the optimal operating temperature - meaning they need thermostats, flow sensing, and real-time continuous monitoring. Given this, the buildings should be insulated and putting them in cooler climates makes much more sense to reduce the requirements for cooling. But, who knows what they actually do? Seems like a lot of energy and environmental impact for something with a debatable need.

Playing one handed Rogers, a guy who already cannot run, was certainly helping the Bills defense. Pittsburgh's backup was pretty terrible too and they pulled him after the interception that he tossed to Benford. Given the weather and the situation they didn't give the backup much of a chance. Joe Burrow will be much harder to play against. The Bengals game will tell us a lot about this team.

One of them should have been on the ice?

The final episode of season 3 is the one that gets me the most. McLean Stevenson's (Col Henry Blake) last show. The writers nailed it and so did the actors.

I assume you are too young for the original airing of the final episode, 1983.

Nice road win in windy weather. They did what they had to do. Next up - The Bungles need a smack down. When will this Bills team get healthy?

I don’t know what that stuff really is. Some Chinese guy came up with numbers and computing algorithms for something-something? My best investment decisions have been in companies and businesses that I understand.

The Bills just played a great 2nd half of football and executed the plan that they wanted. The defense shut down a bad offense, scored the go ahead TD, and forced 2 turnovers for TDs, plus had a big 4th down stop in the red zone. The Offense was lacking in the first half but really ran the ball down Pittsburgh throats in the 2nd half. Cook and Davis were finding big gaps to ramble through and the Bills had 41 minutes of possession time. The back up tackles are road grader run blockers and they did a fine job. Allen led the way as needed, once again. Special teams is still a mixed bag with a blown PAT, constant holding penalties on returns, and just average kick coverage. Go Bills!! Get healthy. Cinci at home will be a lot tougher.

The top 6 veteran forwards are Tage, Tuch, and Norris. The young guys that are still proving they are top 6 are Benson, Doan, and Quinn. The next tier would be Östlund and Rosen but they still are pretty raw. Vets like Zucker and McLeod are 3rd liners on a contending Cup team and they can move up to top 6 and help out. The rest of the forwards are bottom 6 - Kozak, Greenway, Malenstyn, Krebs, Dunne, Danforth, ...

Is the power harvested from Niagara Falls maxed out?

Lots of environmental impact to this AI. Just like the bit coin "harvesting" BS. Increased electricity demand due to AI data centers is driving up electricity costs all over the country.

Hawes can block. So can the FB. There are several ways to slow down the pass rush coming from the outside. I remember the role of chip blocking the DE was one of the many things that Thurman Thomas did with excellence. He could slow down the pass rusher, peel away and get open. Thurman had a way of making the reception while squaring himself forward to make the first defender miss. We don't have a back like that but Ty Johnson a decent receiver, I think they should consider using him to chip block and flare out for quick reception. Unleash Ty or Cook or Harris in the old Thurman role.

I wanted to smack Brady in the head last week for not using the TE or a RB to help chip block the Houston DEs. He seems to get lost in his gameplan. I think Brady has done a poor job this season and if he gets the LSU HC job I hope he goes and I wish him the best. Today is going to set the tone for the rest of the season. They can win and rise up and make a run, or they can crash. They absolutely need to stop turning the ball over and win the turnover ratio today. They will need the defense and special teams to step up. Looking for better preparation and a better start.

His first 3 games were totally different than what he is right now. It seemed like he was cautious and just trying to not make mistakes, he was very reluctant. Once Rosen came up he seemed to get a spark, maybe he had someone to connect with? It is very refreshing to see him contribute, he seems to understand the 2 way game. There is much room for improvement and that will come with more experience in the NHL. At 21 he is still physically growing and can add more weight and strength. What I like is that he looks like a playmaking center. We need one.

All except for Tuch, right? Don't all of his shots go wide? Isn't that one of the many knocks you have on the guy?

What did Tuch do to you?

Doesn’t seem right, but that seems right.

Ellis was excellent for those quick to criticize his first period. Good road outing. 2 points were acquired. Keep it going.

Östlund is the secret weapon - no book

They were offside and got 3 scoring chances.

Minnesota got some great shots off of an offside.
