    The alternative universe of agenda pushing. People believe one thing and set out to find out everything that confirms it. If anything, Diggs seem as fiery as ever of late. Was it nagging small injuries, personal life stuff, issues with Josh or Joe Brady? Who knows. Just win, baby.

    There's speculation he suffered a core injury against Jacksonville and has been compensating for it ever since. He does appear to be protecting it and his numbers have declined since that game.

     

    As has been mentioned throughout this thread, Diggs has been the same teammate (to the extent to which we can tell) as ever, constantly pumping up and supporting the other players, including Josh.

  2. He's definitely not winning it but the case for him being included in the discussion is apparent. All the disassociated high minded posters on this board arguing disproportionately against even the discussion of Allen's candidacy are ridiculous.

     

    There's far too much credence paid to what amounts to overly conservative offense, MVP voters and analysts, as a whole, don't credit high risk playmaking as they once did. Allen attempts a lot of high risk plays because he's capable of making them, and he does so more often that not. We all watched as Tua needed to make game breaking throws the entire 2nd half on Sunday Night and he simply can't make them. Mike McDaniel acknowledged as much during the postgame on the ill fated throw to Claypool that was intercepted. It was a pathetic attempt.

     

    He's often compared to Brett Favre and John Elway, and the comparison is appropriate. Patrick Mahomes and Matthew Stafford are capable of making many of the types of throws Allen can but they can't run like Allen and they both have high level offensive strategists and talent surrounding them--- or in the case of Mahomes, he has historically had that talent around him, but not this year.

     

    Josh Allen isn't going to win 2023 MVP, but for god's sakes, he's one of the greatest football players to ever play the game and you're wasting your life trying to complain on the godamned internet with other fans of the team. Enjoy it while it lasts, soon enough we'll be right back to Kelly Holcomb. But maybe that's what some of you want, he's efficient and doesn't turn the ball over. Nor does he win games, score TDs or entertain.

    I always like to have an idea.

     

    One of the main reasons why after the Chargers game I was still happy was because the Bills I know had a bad record versus them.

     

    Ditto Dallas.  I feel it’s a source of pride now for me that rivalry if you want to call it that isn’t one sided anymore.  6-6 in regular season match ups.

     

     

    During the Josh Allen era it’s gotten better but for a while there it was bad against Pittsburgh.  I think the Bills will win but yeah history sort of says it will be a tough game.

     

     

    Or does stuff that happened years back to you have no bearing on the future? 

    I'm interested in our historical performance against opponents but I don't think the distant past is relevant as far as how the Bills will fare in the current day. 

     

    Josh Allen's record against Miami gives at least some indication of how a game might go, but not 0 for the 70s.

    The Bills will probably still win the AFC East, but there's a lot to tighten up.

    Only Smuckers had my back.

    I get it, but they're 1 game back and only need to keep pace and win in Miami. Things look bleak now but there's time to right the ship.

    I don't know if I was delusional, drunk or both... but I BILLIEVE.

  5. Josh Allen is the Buffalo Bills across their history, personified: Relentless.

     

    Whether Jim Kelly compared to Bobby Layne, who never lost a game but only ran out of time---- or Marv Levy reciting the Scottish poem about Sir Andrew:

     

    "Fight on, my men,

    I am hurt, but I am not slain;
    I'll lay me down and bleed a while,
    And then I'll rise and fight again."

     

    When he's gone, we'll all wish we appreciated him more. He's a gift.

    Colin Cowherd said something really cool. Something along the lines of when watching Josh He doesn’t even care about the turnovers. He will take the basement because he just loves watching the ceiling. 

    I was surprised to see Cowherd's take after the game. I'm not a fan, but if nothing else, he's smart to zig when so many are zagging.
