Between that story, Diggs’ departure, people calling Josh overrated - This team has definitely rallied since late last season and carried it over even more this year.

And this has been the working theory since around when the season started, with Samuel essentially confirming as much heading into the bye week.

I don’t see how the Pats are going to keep the game close at all.

Yea, just saw this. Greeny’s opening about Josh is really good though. Some of these guys have to be getting told to offer the contrarian view, just for the sake of discussion.

Right, if we were already playing in the SB and playing someone like the Eagles, our odds might be 45-55%. But we likely will have 3 playoff games too, which our odds of winning each might be 75%, 65%, 55% (for example). That would give us roughly a 12-15% chance of winning it all. Well, and keep in mind, the house has juice in all of those odds. So DraftKings actually figuring lower odds, but then adding in their juice.

Finally!!!!!!!

What’s the record for most 40 point games in a row?

The thing I’d forgotten with AP’s season was his QB. It was Christian Ponder. Meanwhile, Saquon obviously has Hurts and even AJ Brown to take the heat off of him. I’ve heard even the media generally recognize the talent around Barkley. I’d been concerned if Barkley breaks the rushing record that he’d still the MVP from Josh, but I think the Bills would also have to finish worse than the 2 seed now too. Josh would have to give reasons to lose it now, AND Barkley break the rushing record. If we just beat the Pats this weekend, it’s almost a lock then that we’re the 2 seed or better. And by the time we play the Jests, we’ll know if we have a shot at the 1 seed still or not. If at some point it’s clear we’ll be the 2 seed with no chance to get the 1, McD would be smart to sit Josh, at which point Josh’s case will rest. If we’re able to actually land the 1 seed, that just further solidifies his case.

Barkley wasn’t even in the game multiple times when the Eagles were at the goal line yesterday. They can score just as easily or better with Hurts there, and have other options as well. Does that sound like a MVP? Meanwhile, we’re probably one of the best red zone teams in the league, but it’s all because of the various threats that Josh poses.

We will still have a shot at the 1 seed this week AND will not have the 2 seed clinched, so need at least play to win this week against NE. That will get us to 12-3. Then the PIT/KC game on Christmas will be huge in terms of deciding if we have anything to play for against the Jests and Pats* in our last two games.

Glad to hear they’re not getting worse

Is this part of his new persona, Joe Frustrated?

And don’t think him and Amari aren’t great examples for a young guy like Keon to emulate. Imagine a mix of Mack & Amari, because that’s what I think Keon can be before all is said and done.

It’s Josh. If you trade Josh & any of our DEs from today’s team for Bruce & Kelly from the 90s teams, we have a Super Bowl already.

You could make this argument against any other player in the league too. Who has been more impressive than Allen, this season? Some could claim Lamar, but he’s got 5 losses to Josh’s three, so by the argument you’ve laid out, that’s even less impressive, right? The current 1 seeds have 3 losses all season, two of which are to the Bills. And Josh is clearly playing at a level unforeseen in the NFL. He would need a complete meltdown in these last three games to not win the MVP, regardless of what anyone else does.

Well the positive is that if #2 and #3 happen, then we will either gain at least a game on KC by the time we host the Jests, or we’ll know that we’re locked in as the 2 seed. Exciting position to be in, either way.

It feels like he’s playing at the New England perfect game level, for multiple weeks in a row now.

We have Josh Allen. That’s the only D we need.

Can’t top V be appreciated in and of itself though?

Is acceleration more exciting or important than V?

20-19 finish in New Orleans. Super Bowl is in NOLA and Bills/Lions is potential SB preview. It’s a sign!

Mahomes isn’t gonna hold up. Limping after latest shot to legs.

I vote we fire McD, and hire Gregg Williams. It worked the last time we canned a winning coach.
