Mr. WEO

why would you hire a guy who has been middling around the league for 19 years as a coach? Might as well bring Leslie Frazier. There are guys who the game has passed by and then there is Riverboat Ron.

No one cares so this won't happen. Daboll having an interview had nothing to do with the Bills bad exit from the playoffs. It doesn't stand to reason that it did.

Meanwhile that bum Pederson escaped the axe---he threw his staff under the bus in a valiant move to right (another) sinking ship.

lol, come on...

Perp would have to prove he was being threatened with "deadly force" to make that case. not happening.

If bad weather favors the running game, then the Steelers aren't in great shape. Rudolph's 1 TD per game won't help. He's going to get lit up.

That's the "only case for Josh"?? Did that analysis take, what, 15 seconds? lol, strong work. Allen had 12 games with at least 1 passing and 1 rushing TD. He led the league in passing yards AND was tied for 2nd in rushing TDs. He is tied for 2nd with 4 Q comebacks and game winning drives. 7 of his of his 18 INTs came in 3 games. Jackson isn't top 10 in passing yards or TDs. He had 3 games with no passing or rushing TDs. They won 2 of them anyway. Efficiency? He had 148 carries, scored only 5 TDs, 48 1st downs and fumbled 11 times. Allen, on 111 carries, scored 15 times, racked 57 1st downs and 7 fumbles. That's 65% of his runs resulted in either a 1st down or a TD---compared to 36% for Jackson. If this was 2019 then yes--he was hands down the MVP. He scored 43 of their 58 TDs. This year, only 29 of their 53. Allen has scored 44 of the teams 51 TDs, for comparison. As you now can see--few teams are as dependent on 1 player than the Bills. They have won 5 in a row--one of the hottest teams in the NFL, after a fairly rough start. Sure he gets loose with the ball, but that's how he plays. It's a miracle Jackson has lasted to the end of the season, true, but that doesn't get you the MVP. Heck, Jordan Love is more deserving--turned around a 3-6 team and got them to the playoffs (something Rodgers could not do last year). 32 passing TD (11 INT) 4 rushing TDs with Romeo Doubs and Jayden Reed as his primary receivers and a mediocre Defense. You are only pushing Jackson because the echo chamber tells you to. I've shown you why that's the wrong choice.

is Jackson more deserving? Why?

Jackson will get it because his team had 13 wins. No one should think he's having a better season than Allen. He's an option QB who fumbles a lot but doesn't score a lot and has a low INT rate on a team with the #1 Defense.

It's a thread about the pro personnel guy, not any of the Bills coordinators, so the comment of "this ****" happening during the playoffs doesn't apply. even if they were interviewing a coordinator, I have no reason to believe that any player would really be distracted by that. they all know it's a business. fans are constantly projecting their thoughts and feelings on players--I get that. but there's no reason at all to think they care.

the NFL outrage machine requires constant feeding!!! ARRRRGHGHH!!

who is distracted by the player personnel guy sitting for a few hours for an interview?

Doesn't matter which bum Tomlin sticks in at QB, Big Ben ism long gone and the Bills D will light up any and all of the Steelers scrubs.

straw man thread

so your position is that the Bills did not clinch a playoff spot after the Titans (a 5 win team playing the spoiler) beat jacksonville, but only because they beat the Dolphins?

There's no chance at all Davis, untripped, gets it to that punt Allen threw into the EZ.

The Bills didn't need to win last night to make the playoffs. it's that simple. They were already in. If that concept strikes you as "stupid", well, that's how the playoffs work.

I’ll make it even simpler. Win or lose tonight, the Bills are in the playoffs because already because the Titans beat the jags. They don’t need to win tonight to secure a spot in the playoffs The early game got them in. It’s that simple. Facts are always a solid “go to” (pro tip).

it's a factual statement. the Bills clinched playoffs when the jags lost---it's the title of this thread that you have posted in, in fact. why are you struggling here?

if the Bills lose tonight?

The Bills are in right now, regardless of what happens tonight

whom would have thought, in mid October, say, the the Bills would need a 5 win team as a spoiler to get them into the playoffs?

I'm trying to stick with the premise of this thread.........

of course you tell them.
