What a Tuel

Aww how cute, now he is trying to compare cheating. Don't worry bud, you guys clearly have that title locked down. Stick it up there next to your Super Bowl Trophies***

We sleep just fine bud. How do you sleep knowing the entire country thinks your team is a bunch of cheaters and your legacy will forever be tainted as a result. You'll say you sleep fine, but obviously you don't since you are coming on an opposing teams message board to troll and stick up for your team's cheating ways.

I think he means the "haven't had a winning season in years" part. Could be any number of the past sucky teams. Bills, Jets, Browns, Titans, Buccanears, Chargers all come to mind. Edit: Just looked it up and it surprises me that the Bears are on a 7 year playoff drought.

In 2011? I see Eli Manning with 33 pass attempts and 3 TDs, and Victor Cruz with 6 catches 178 yards that Week 17 game.

Or Derek Carr and Blake Bortles which this board raved about quite a bit at times.

The three and outs are a heart breaker for the defense. They stop the freaken Patriots, and Tyrod gives it right back to them 1.5 minutes later. Demoralizing.

Go back to your board Marsha. You won't convince anyone that your "legacy" isn't tainted. Yet another asterisk in your proud existence.

PI on this: But not on this:

Take away the bias calls (tuck rule) and the Patriots likely don't have a couple of their Super Bowls at least. Are they really the best in history after that? Tack on their cheating ways, and they will always be tainted.

Honestly I think Bills players could be super well liked (or hated) just as well as any of the other teams. Market size plays a factor but there are successful small market teams out there, and I don't think it explains the inconsistencies in officiating the Patriots. I think Kraft has a lot of influence in the NFL, and I think he exerts that influence to his fellow owners dismay. I think the Owners were fed up and told Goodell to make the Patriots pay for deflategate because they are just tired of it.

He sounds a bit sweet on the Bills at times. I don't know if its his style of playcalling or what. We should ask him to come down and play for us. At least he will throw the ball.

I find that to be more fun. Its fun. Not stressful. We are playing a meaningful Week 17 game.

Exactly. I mean any of those games means win and we are in next week, but no let's focus on what we imagine Tyrod doing against the Chargers. Maybe Tyrod should've done to the Panthers or Bengals what he hypothetically was going to do to the Chargers.

No, Jaguars have the conference tie breaker. Its still a division game, and you don't want to go into the playoffs on a loss.

Ugh. I knew this was coming. There is no reason to believe Tyrod would have won that game. None. Not after the Jets and Saints game where he did nothing, followed up by modest win against the Chiefs, and a 65 yard passing performance against the Pats. I really wish we could put that thing to rest. Edit: AKA We wouldn't be in this scenario at all if Tyrod would have stepped it up against the Panthers/Jets/Patriots/Bengals too.

I'd love to know why they ruled him down and when? Was forward progress called? It seems they blew the whistle before he ever touched the ground.

If Tennessee gets to 9-7 now it means they beat the Jaguars which gives them the Conference win tie breaker. If Baltimore loses to the Bengals we tie on common opponents and go to strength of victory which we beat them on.

He drops back way too far. He makes silly decisions on 3rd downs, which he is praised for bc he doesn't do turnovers, but he doesn't do much of anything else either. That and the play design. Why are we starting McCoy 7 yards back for a 3rd and 2?

After the sack that took us back to 2nd and 25. Like how much harder is it to make a pass 15 years further back? How does that help you see? Step up into the pocket you nancy! It's funny how we received two PI calls that helped the Pats dramatically, but every time a Bills WR gets a ball thrown towards him, a Pats player is draped on him and no PI. Honestly the amount of power Kraft has in the NFL, I would not be surprised to find out 15 years from now that he pressured the League Office in NY. Just way too many nonsensical calls by Refs over the years that are consistently in Pats favor but more importantly inconsistent with calls around the rest of the NFL. I think other Owners are tired of it, and I think that's why you hear rumblings of other Owner's complaining to Goodell.

Odds are funny like that, and never go according to plan. Which is why they change from week to week because new information presents itself. Its not a lottery where there is a statistical probability.

Your original quote: "Our playoff lives just died with this ravens win! Charges will jump us win a win against the jets and our lose to the pats!" Still bad at math I guess. Bills playoff hopes didn't die with Baltimore win. Nor did they die with the Chargers win. Nor did they die with the Patriots win. You are very clearly wrong, since a Baltimore loss against Cinci is our best course in now.

But...you just made that number up. I say its a 99% chance we do.

Dude, you have absolutely no idea. It's kind of like we all highly doubt the Titans would compete with the Rams. Or the Chargers would only beat the Jets by 7. Or the Colts to compete to the end with the Ravens. I mean they are all division games. Its all up in the air. Be a fan and have some hope. (I know, I know, 18 years blah blah blah poor you)

We all may be waiting for that Chargers/Raiders 4 o clock game. Basically.

Most probable is Bengals beating the Ravens + Bills win. Every other combination we need 2 of 3 to lose (Ravens, Chargers, Titans) Edit: With a Ravens + Titans loss, we could even get the 5th seed.
