May Day 10

They were dealt a bad hand from the start, and they had that smoke and mirrors flukey 1st season that raised expectations

That is a pretty simple way to look at it, but true. It isn't that far-fetched for them to win all 4 (3 of them at home, 2 vs the Patriots who look terrible right now) I cant imagine the Jets or Dolphins winning games at that high of a clip (both are in awful losing skids). You'd also need the Bills to lose-the-table vs Seattle, Colts, Rams, Chiefs, Lions, and 49ers

It being so early is a bad thing though (although I'm not complaining). Still a lot of season left. At this point, I see Miami as a bigger threat just because their team may drastically change overnight when they get Tua back, and they have a half-game lead over NY. They also have a decent stretch of winnable games ahead (Cardinals, Rams, Raiders, Patriots, with the Bills game mixed in there. Say they beat the Bills and win 3 of those 4 "easy" games, that takes the tiebreaker away and they are suddenly 6-5, which doesn't leave a lot of room for error with the Bills. But if the Bills can win that home game, that is a ton of space to make-up in 10 games. The Jets just look ill, but their schedule is manageable. 2-5 is a pretty big hole. If the Bills can hold serve in that home-game, the jets would essentially have to go like 8-1 in their other games just to have a chance, and thats with the Bills being pretty disappointing. Miami and the Jets also have to play each other twice. If they split, thats awful for them In short, if the Bills can hold-serve against the Dolphins and Jets at home, it would be very hard to lose the Division.

There is no Allen/Mahomes debate outside of Buffalo. Honestly, there should be. Its a similar thing to Brady vs Manning. By all eyeball (and even many statistical) measures, Manning should have been considered a better QB. Brady and the Patriots always seemed to get it done. It became universally accepted at some point that Brady was automatically better. QB comparisons are too-often team-comparisons. Maybe he was? Maybe Mahomes is. Mahomes has that ice where a big game is on the line and he seems to get things done over and over.... All the injuries, short week, everything else, in the Divisional round, Allen had the ball in an advantageous position to put Mahomes and the Chiefs away. He didn't (Diggs drop aside). Seemed to make 2 poor decisions setting up an unpredictable Bass FG attempt and giving the Chiefs a lot of time if they needed to score. If Mahomes was the Bills QB, I feel like he snakes that game out and the other side feels like they had their lunch stolen.

Most fans were wondering out loud if the bills should move on from dabol. They were struggling that season, remembering the Jacksonville game. The offense was a machine in the playoffs though. It's a waste of time to talk about imo. McDermott and Daboll are philosophically different, and it's clear there is/was a strained relationship. Personally, I think I'd be really happy with him as oc based on his past performance and history with Allen

Rodgers looks extremely limited. Their inability to run at all is a critical failure with such a limited QB. They are also losing players to injury left and right. They had a good build going. Some top end young players. They should have invested in the offensive line and also got a reasonably available qb like Darnell, Mayfield, carr, etc. Instead they catered to and seemingly wasted all that opportunity on Aaron Rodgers. I don't think it could have gone any worse. Quinnen Williams also seems to have taken a long vacation after getting paid. That doesn't help

Woody Johnson better make some more moves this week. The season is slipping away

Both games on the road no less

Pickens looks like a man among boys out there.

What the?

Announcers are openly rooting for the jets

Wilson is awesome

No more Wilson. This is madness

Woof rodgers

To me, he sounds so overpowering... and everything is so sensationalized it comes across as bs. How was that not a penalty on gardner?

Jets getting some gifts from the stripes

The bills offense has been ruined

Always defer! Stupid. Our offense is very average anyways Also, I hate shotgun pass on 3rd and short right there Idiotic!

Such a severe fall for Jacksonville. Went from a trendy pick for the 1 seed and AFCC last season to... this

So many chips in the center of the table for 2 and 4

You can tell already. Pedersen is a lame duck, Jacksonville is going to lose, they have quit, and the coach will be fired tonight or first thing tomorrow

As of now, the nfl is a beast that can pretty much do no wrong and people will crawl back and ask for more. I don't see a decline at any point in the foreseeable future.

Mustard all the way, although for a burger, I like to mix ketchup, mayo, and mustard together into 1 condiment and spread it. I am a mustard guy though. Nance's mustard is fantastic as is Wegman's Dijon. Bertman Ballpark Mustard from Cleveland is the best brown mustard I have had as well. Yellow mustard is fine on hot dogs and hamburgers but also kind of gross. There are so many delicious mustards out there I wouldnt use yellow unless I had to.

Can we end all this nonsense with Kevyn Adams as GM, all the other grifters in the front office, keeping the failed assistant coaches because they are nice guys, and lindy ruff? Most importantly can Terry Pegula please punt himself out of the picture with his note-taking, question-asking, and idea-presenting? Bring someone in and restore credibility to this once-proud franchise.

I agree. That was the bills' game to lose, and the jets lost an opportunity to steal it. The bills looked poised to pile on with an opportunity to go up 3 scores before the ludicrous hail Mary sequence. Rodgers would have been forced to throw 100% of the time and it would have been tee off time. Also, if both kickers were 100%, the bills still win. Penalties were fairly evenly stupid, although, I'd contend the bills got the more ridiculous calls (epinesa roughing and Dawkins after dark)
