  1. Fair enough. If I was skilled I'd also do the job for 84k, but his job involves a lot more than showing up for a few plays a year. And I'm not one of those guys who's rooted for Duke to be a big part of the offense but I also try to remember that PS players are still in the top-200 or so players at their position in a business where tens of thousands of guys aspire to the same.
  2. I suspect many may not want to hear this but the team can be for real and still lose in the first round of the playoffs. It's a single elimination tournament played with an oblate spheroid and wacky stuff goes down sometimes, not to mention that the AFC is very strong. If you could play 5 or 7 game series in football I'd say book us for the AFCCG. The "for real" feeling for me is that we'll return to the playoffs perennially while Josh is on the team and healthy and that deep playoff runs will happen when they happen. We also have a very real chance at a championship this year.
  3. I suspect you're right about the coaches' motivations especially because I REALLY think they were trying to break that 14 receivers with TDs record earlier in the game. That said, there aren't enough backups on the active roster to fill every single starting spot so Beasley may have stayed in the package for that reason. I noticed that not every defender got subbed out.
  4. Putrid take. Do you really think the practice squad players do nothing?
  5. Assuming the stakes haven't changed you're still playing with house money!
  6. "Smithers, have the Miami Dolphins killed." "But sir, they weren't -" "Do as I say!"
  7. I remember the days when only the Bills' starting RB would get taken in the draft.
  8. I just...don't understand how the ball gets to Knox's hands so quickly. I keep watching it and it doesn't make physical sense.
  9. I will say that the very next game they committed three straight turnovers in the 4th quarter which is a sure fire loss when you aren't facing the choking Chargers. But they started physically dominating in the next game against San Fran and haven't looked back.
  10. 5-0 since then including 4 in a row on national television. This team is a different breed.
  11. The thing is if it was a pop injury and he knew it, they wouldn't have let him walk to the locker room. Guys walk on torn ACLs when they're none the wiser but they're getting the cart out otherwise.
  12. Yeah but why was Jones on the field?
  13. I'll say again what I said last week - we always used to need this thread because Bills wins used to come down to a couple players making key plays. The second half of this season we've seen total team victories.
  14. The way they're playing they won't get to use their Christmas presents til February.
  15. I just hope our defense doesn't get surprised by a real QB after two weeks of Newton, Stidham and Tua throwing changeups!
  16. The Hopkins trade may be the worst in NFL history. They got a 2nd round pick and an old running back in exchange for a top-10 player in the NFL.
  17. Milano played a fantastic game and we're just a different defense without him there. Made 3 surehanded tackles on 3rd downs in a game where we didn't get turnovers.
  18. We'll likely need the win for the softer first round matchups. The nice thing is defenders aren't getting anywhere near to touching him lately.
  19. Nobody's playing football better than Josh Allen right now. Won't catch Rodgers for MVP but we know the truth.
  20. Bills have targeted 11 different receivers so far. Crazy.
  21. I guess I'm a spoiled fan now because we got the 7 points but I want Josh to rack up the TDs dammit!
  22. Assuming it's not a coincidence that Roberts and Taiwan are getting red zone touches, I really hate going for a meaningless record in the middle of a tied game that counts. And yes, Jones was wide open but why was he on the field?
