You’re living in the past…offense has had all the most premium investments the past 3 seasons.

Even you know the defense is the weakest part of this team right now. Lets now try and act like we have some gaping holes on offense or anything close to the same issues we have on defense heading into next year...because we don't. Ask the Bengals what its like to be all offense and no defense when they are sitting home watching the postseason despite what should be an MVP leading season by Burrow right now.

Prisoner of the moment is focusing on the DL being "elite" against a team with a mediocre offense and sub par OL. DL was embarrassed against the Ravens and Rams, teams who can throw and run the ball with QB's who can get the ball out quickly. So I would say you are being prisoner to an isolated past moment and ignoring the real issues that are going to be problematic when we face premium opposition in the post season.

How many non-Bills Pats games did you watch from start to finish? Because you are grossly underselling the talent of those Pats players. All of those guys would be amongst to ever play for the Bills had they been Bills. No one, literally no one, on our DL is even close to their level of play and consistency. Von Miller pre-Buffalo was...but not the Von Miller whose been a Bill.

Its not though...our defense is also amongst the best every year, and even statistically better than the Chiefs in most categories. But Chris Jones ends games...did it several times in both their super bowl playoff runs the past 2 seasons.

Ive been saying it for the past 2 years...the difference between the Chiefs and Bills is Chris Jones.

Yes, Tom Brady was absolutely correct commentating during the game that there is no option but to throw 3 times there, all to the endzone. Burning a timeout resigns you to a 3% chance onside kick attempt. I get the thought process of your best play, and there is no higher conversion play in our playbook than an Allen sneak to get the 1 yard. But, as high of a conversion it is, the times you don't get it and have to burn a timeout completely change the complexity of the game and take all other options off the table. Even if you don't think the Bills can stop them from getting a first down, you could always STILL kick the onside and try and get it, but if you fail, still have your 3 timouts to try and get the ball back. Burning a timeout makes the onside attempt the deciding factor in the game with no recourse.

I don't know what was more impressive...the TD run or the one he caught at the goal line that was a very difficult catch. As I said in the game day thread...believe it or not, there are still certain posters here who hope we don't sign him to a second contract.

There are people on here who hate Mack Hollins.

I repeat…there are people here who don’t want to sign Shakir to a second contract. 🤦‍♂️

There are people on this board who do NOT want to resign Shakir. Can you believe that?

And an unproven coach at that...its unbelievable really

How sad is Poyer right now that he has to suffer through Miamis rest of the season while Hyde gets a final run at a ring...

I would take McD over quite a few SB winning coaches TBH. Just some quick ones that come to mind: Ditka, Pederson, Switzer, Seifert, Gruden, McCarthy, Dungy, Kubiak, Billick McD is a better coach and leader than all of them IMHO.

My mind changed in the Houston game where I for the first time wanted him fired after that last drive. However, my mind changed back when I watched the film and realized it was Allens fault, not McD's and McD was even visibly pissed at the choices Allen made on that drive. Twice before I felt he was the COY and got robbed. If the vote was today, I would say he should be the COY without a doubt even though he probably still won't win it. But he IMHO has the best case for it in the NFL if the vote was today. None of this matters though...we need to see what this team does in the postseason.

Some extra icing on your cake: I know someone who works in production at the NFL...and he told me everyone hates him off camera there too. Like he is a total d*ck to work with and doesn't treat people around the sets well. Total douche

MVP race will be decided on December 15th when the Bills face Detroit. Josh and the Bills win that game, he is a lock. We lose and Josh has a bad game like the Ravens game, or worse an atrocious game like the Texans game, then there will not be enough time for him to save him MVP candidacy. Bills need to show we can beat over .500 teams as well as we beat under .500 teams. We can lose that game and Josh still win MVP, but it would need to be a game where Allen plays great and we lose the game elsewhere like on defense.

For my first post in my new house...I will go with... I told you so.

Their defense has been the bigger surprise as most their injuries have been on offense. It’s definitely under performing and with the offense so banged up it’s just been a struggle for them.

HOUSE DIVIDED! This is the first time since my wife and I started dating that NINERS and BILLS are facing off haha. She’s a die hard Niner fan but also supports the Bills when not playing her Niners. She’s bummed her team has had a crap season instead of this being two titans playing this week. It will be a first full day in our new house too…should still be fun…at least for me haha 🤣

This is the least intimidating Chiefs team of recent years. They may be 9-1, but they got very lucky to not be 7-3 and Mahomes leads the NFL in interceptions since the start of last season. My main concern is not about them, it's about the health of our roster when we play them. We have been cursed where we were missing key players where the lack of having those players very directly led to our losses to KC in 2021 (Tre White) and 2023 (Our LB's mainly, but also the Ghosts of Von and Tre didn't help). If we are at or near full strength, we will beat them and beat them decisively no matter where we play.

All good, and while I agree with you about "hanging" something representing a black guy as if he is being "hung" is over the line...this is not what this was at all. He was suspended in the air, not hung like a noose, much like a pinata would be. There is a massive difference and this was an example of the public and media making it mean something it doesn't.

It’s honestly embarrassing how soft and toxically outraged society has become. I mean it’s sports rivalries…it’s as close to anything goes as it gets. It’s sports banter which is the basis of why sports are as big as they are. To take it serious is just a silly concept. Dont get me wrong, there are still lines that you can’t cross that go too far, but those are blatantly obvious and have more literal meanings and interpretations (like using racial slurs for example). At this point I almost root for people to do and say things that get the “outrage police” out in full force just to troll them. And he does sound like Kermit, so this was funny.
