Whatever it was it was terrible. I will never understand why they changed it…and will definitely never understand why they didn’t change it back when it wasn’t working

I will say this…Josh for some reason forgot how to Tush Push tonight. A Tush Push is perpetual forward motion. Yet multiple times he side stepped making it no longer a tush push, but a QB draw, not even a sneak. I will forever wonder why in the hell did we keep running the his god awful version of it that was nothing like we did all year…and I mean nothing like what we did all year.

Josh Allen air show led the NFL in turnovers. This was the best offense we have had yet. Sure add more talent, WR will be a priority and no it shouldn’t be Cooper unless he’s cheap. But to try and force some air it out attack again is to take a step back. Had our defense not stunk most the game we would have won. We put up 29 and lost to a team who hadn’t scored 30 all year. In the other 18 games KC played this year 29 would have beaten them. We definitely need to address WR, but we also badly need to address the secondary at CB and S as well as the DL this offseason.

Nobody better ever say McD is conservative again

PUT SOME RESPECT ON MACKS NAME!!!!

How can anyone not just love this guy 😂 This is savage! LFG

Great news and what I expected given the type of jobs that were open. Personally, I think he will be the Bengals new HC entering 2026 or possible the Bills new HC if Buffalo doesn’t at least reach the SB this year or next…but FWIW I fully expect to make the SB this year. I have a hard time seeing Buffalo open up the new stadium without some change if we still haven’t gotten over the hump and played in the big game.

I fully believe if we get to 30 we for sure win this game. Can't see the Chiefs offense beating us above 30.

I don't know why, but I just have a feeling Bishop comes up with an INT this week. Feels like Mahomes is going to try and exploit him and force some ill-advised pass down field under duress that is off target and Bishop eats.

What a beautiful post 👏❤️

Call me crazy, but I think Brady stays one season more, Bills give him a big pay raise for this season, and he looks for better opportunities than what are left this offseason as none of the openings seem particularly attractive right now.

My dad was murdered 30 years ago when I was 18...the Super Bowl this year will be on his Birthday, February 9th. He was a die hard Niners fan, but I am only a Bills fan because Chris Berman picked the Niners and Bills for 20 years straight to make the SB. And because of that, as a kid I thought they were natural rivals and my dad and I were competitive, so I gravitated to teams that rivaled the Niners. Then in 1988 my grandfather (his dad) bought a Buffalo for s**ts and giggles at an auction and stuck it in with our cattle on a piece of land where the Mall in Tracy, CA now sits. And to a young boy it was like seeing a Dinosaur, I didn't even know Buffalo's still existed having never seen one before despite growing up in the country and going to bull fights, cattle auctions, etc as a kid. So this combination of Chris Berman, my dad being a Niners fan, and my grandfather buying a Buffalo made me a Bills fan right when they got Kelly, Thurman, Smith, etc and right when I was starting to understand football more and I fell in love with the K-Gun offense and never looked back. I still have the first SB on VHS tape in my garage from when I recorded it. Also, I now have my own 2 sons and completed my family this year with my 2nd being born in October. So this is the first post season with having completed our family with our 2 boys, so they are here as my good luck charms. My first born was already put through a table when he was born in the offseason that year...and now I will be doing the same with my 3 month old son before kick off of the Bills vs Was/Phi SB. Everything feels different this year...that Ravens game is the kind of game we lose in the past. When we didn't get the TD and only went up 8, my PTSD kicked in and I was like here we go, Lamar is driving for the TD here I know it (and he did). Then when he threw the 2pt conversion, I was like yup, this is how it goes...until suddenly he dropped it. Then I looked at my wife who was so excited he dropped the pass and said...way too early to celebrate...the most Billsy way to lose would be staring at certain victory and then botch the onside recovery up only 2 and Ravens getting a quick game winning FG instead. That onside kick was the most nervous I have been all season...I was like this would be the most heartbreaking...aka so Billsy...way to lose this game. And then I saw the personnel, and I was like WTF is this, Douglas is our hands guy? Where is Shakir, Cooper, etc...I didn't see any WR's and Rasul was by himself. I felt doom creeping in before the kick, then it went right to Douglas and I cringed expecting a last second akward bounce and bobble... ...But...it never happened. He clean scooped it and the Bills offense put the game away and at it was like the weight of the past 35 years of Bills fan hood felt gone, like a dark cloud just blew away. I looked at my wife and said this is different...this is like when Bill Murray wakes up that last time in the movie Groundhogs Day and was like somethings different and different is good! About 20 min after the game I was walking through the house and the most incredibly vivid vision popped in my head that felt ultra realistic and it was the confetti coming down, the Lombardi trophy on the stage being handed McD and Josh in their SB champion hats...and I looked at my wife and said "This is it...we are winning it this year." LFG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I haven't dove into FA recently, nor do I want to until after we win the Super Bowl ha. But not gonna lie...there is this part of me that is just hoping I start hearing names like Maxx or Myles tossed around as trade candidates this offseason as teams like the Raiders and Browns really need to start a full rebuild. I know its probably a pipe dream, but a boy can dream haha. But my realistic expectation is we address the position in the draft early. Before we know what we do in terms of trades or FA, I would think its safe to say that WR, DL, S, and CB are probably our 4 highest priorities this offseason. So I guess if we address edge in the draft then Mack makes some sense as a 1 year mentor/stop-gap guy, just as long as its not a multi-year deal.

Thats fair, but Mack will be 34 next month, meaning he is going to be on the back half of 34 during the season next year and almost 35 come playoff time next year. Its a lot to ask to expect him to still play at a high level and also not get hurt. Like I said, wouldn't be upset about it, but I would hope its to compliment some premium pick we invested with one of our first 3 picks in the first 2 rounds. I am also secretly hoping we make a splash move and pluck some stud in trade from a team with a new regime that is rebuilding.

For the record...while the tush push was started by the Eagles, what we run is different than what they run. Think of it like in terms of movies about true stories...there is the documentary, which is the accurate depiction of the events and there is the casted movie that says "inspired by a true story" meaning while it has some resemblance to the original story, its mostly different. We have the "inspried by" version of the play here in Buffalo.

Personally, I don't agree with the coaches initial comment you need 9 blue chip players, there is way too much context missing for that to just be an accurate statement. However, I don't think he is just counting average to below average starters as "blue chips" as you are referencing by the "top 32 at their positions". For example, the 31st ranked Strong Safety isn't a good player, let alone a "Blue Chip", and is in fact a player I would bet that team wants to upgrade from. And you said being top 32 means you could start for "any team" in the league...but it actually doesn't. Means there is some team(s) you might start for, but not that you can start for "any team" in the league. That 31st ranked SS isn't going to start for many teams, if any, outside the team he already starts on. My guess is he is talking at least top 10 if he is calling them "Blue Chips", maybe even top 5 at certain positions to be considered a blue chip. But like I said, I don't think the coach who said that is correct anyway...I think things like team/scheme fit, chemistry, execution, mindset, etc are more consistently important than any specific number of "blue chip" players.

I hear you, but I would just like to see us go get a better solution than a 1 year aging rental who just by the sheer fact of age is a higher injury risk factor and at a declining stage of their career. Don't get me wrong, I wouldn't be upset at Mack being signed to say a 1 year deal...just would rather see them make a splash move for a more long term piece. If signing Mack coincides with a high draft pick at the position, then that wouldn't be so bad either.

There is your issue right there...you said a suitable replacement for Von...and sure, yeah, he probably would be a suitable replacement for an over priced, past his prime, DE who isn't impacting the games consistently or enough thanks to the inevitable loss to father time. We need to upgrade from Von, not make a lateral move to another high priced aging vet on the last year(s) of his career who also has a higher risk of injury thanks to the undefeated abilities of Father Time.

This might be my favorite post/story I have ever read on this forum 😂

Bills 31 Chiefs 20 See y'all in New Orleans - Metaphorically of course through my TV as I have 2 kids under 2 which means my butt will be traveling no where 😂

Best part about this thread: The OP taught me I can type "asshats" without it getting censored...haha so you are doing to the good fight against censorship after all 🫡 😂

Society is full of asshats in every facet of every subject. No different in sports. If you want to be ashamed of something, be ashamed at humanity because there is no group in society that doesn't have asshats. Even the Church has some asshat pedos lol

Yeah this isn't helping your cause lol

You want to have discussion about it...you should have just private messaged the Mods. Putting them on blast on the main board isn't going to endure you to them or make them feel sympathetic. And then over dramatizing the situation with the whole "ashamed" stuff isn't going to endure you to anyone else either. The world is already over saturated with outrage culture that social media has conditioned society to have now...many of us are over it. Since you are a newbie...some friendly advice, take it or leave it...but I would prob just delete the thread before its viewed more or gets more traction as its gonna land with the majority more Karen-esque based on the tone and those never go over well here.
