So the argument and justification is that the Bills will have to play without their QB but the Dolphins, Ravens and Jets will all play with their QB? It is a weird enough argument to start selecting, before the season, which QBs will be healthy. It’s even weirder when you are selecting Lamar, Tua and a 39 year-old Aaron Rodgers to be healthier than Allen.
-
He has. When I say, “this era” it really is since Allen/Lamar came in. Tua was next and now Rodgers but it really refers to the last 5 years. After all, we are discussing the present(ish) makeup of these teams. The Miami team that finished 4.5 games behind the Bills in 2022 is not that much different than the 2023 team. The Bills team isn’t that much different from 2022. If we are assuming that the 4.5 game gap has closed, we must be assuming that the situation for Miami will be improving while the Bills situation regresses. The players/coaches have not changed enough to warrant that gap being closed. Logically, I don’t understand that argument that Baltimore, NY and Miami will ALL improve so much that they will pass a 13-3 Bills team with 3 losses by a combined 8 points. This Bills team is largely the same, and improved in any ways.

Za’Darius Smith traded to the Browns
Kirby Jackson replied to Kirby Jackson's topic in The Stadium Wall
There is no replacing the legend. It just seems like that there are lots of things happening, or things on Twitter, that should be discussed here. These topics used to fly up on TBD immediately. That Acho troll job would have been up here within seconds. It was hours before I started that thread. It just seemed like something that this group would have opinions on. -
I agree that the Bills haven’t reached their potential in the playoffs. Personally, I would have been fine if they moved on from McDermott for that reason. At the same time, the Bills have won more playoff games in this era than any of those teams including playoff wins over 2 of them. If we are using “they have to prove it in the playoffs” that actually works in the Bills favor vs. those 3 teams.

Lol, what make you assume that I didn’t know that?!? This is a message board. It was posted for discussion…
-
Lol, reading comprehension…
-
I agree that things could look differently. Cincy belongs in that next tier too. Cincy and the Bills have to be 2 and 3 in whatever order. They get the benefit of the doubt.
-
I don’t think that a reasonable case can be made, at this point for anywhere below 3. Could it happen, I guess. It’s Occham’s razor. There are a lot of mental gymnastics that he’s using to look upon those teams favorably, while holding a lot of little things against the Bills. The likeliest scenario is that each team has some things better than expected, worse than expected and some injuries. If everyone has “the same luck” the Bills are no worse than 3rd.
-
They finished 6.5 games ahead of the Jets, 4.5 games ahead of Miami and 3.5 games ahead of Baltimore. It is unreasonable to think that the Bills regressed enough for ALL of those teams to have closed that chasm. It’s not like a game separated them!!

This feels like a SNL skit. It is a parody. So the young, rich, single, famous, superstar QB should NOT enjoy his time off? 😂 Sometimes people say things on here and it makes anything else that they say hard to take seriously. It’s just so ridiculous that your opinion on every other Bills topic is discounted because of this take. The people that took Peterman to the grave did that for me. This is similar imo.
-
Teams didn’t have the choice until last season. 5 of the 6 teams declined. They would be the norm, not an outlier. I just think that they don’t want week 6.
-
Only one team took it last year. I suspect that the Bills do not take their bye the week after.
-
I booked my trip last week when the rumors started. I’m glad that it was right. 😬

This should be fun. Mike Clay:
Kirby Jackson replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agreed!! They have a nice WR room with Ridley back. With Diggs as a top 5ish number 1 and Gabe as a top halfish number 2, I have them higher than 20. They’re somewhere closer to 12-15 in my opinion. I haven’t done my own rankings but they feel closer to the middle of the league than the bottom 3rd. Again, it isn’t a huge gripe. -

The Bills are too low. They aren’t top 10 though. It isn’t that insulting. -
My top 32 (ranked based on likely starter for 2023 only): - Mahomes - Allen - Burrow - Herbert - Hurts - Lawrence - Lamar - Watson - Rodgers - Dak - Cousins - Tua - Fields - Goff - Geno - Kyler - Stafford - Russell Wilson - Carr - Purdy - Bryce Young - Stroud - Daniel Jones - Jimmy G - Pickett - Richardson - Tannehill - Baker - Love - McCorkle - Howell - Ridder

We are saying the same thing. As I understand it, it is back near the football field that the kids use. I’m not sure exactly where but in that general area.

The burial ground is back behind the current stadium. It is where those woods are.

This Bills over/under seems like stealing money
Kirby Jackson replied to 78thealltimegreat's topic in The Stadium Wall
I’m betting an uncomfortable amount of money on the Bills over 10.5. If healthy, 12-5 is the floor. Assuming that it isn’t like -145 or something crazy. I am going to bet 1/2 the cost of a Super Bowl trip. If the Bills go, I will basically go for 1/2 price (or less if I win tickets in the lottery or through some connections). If they don’t go, it will roughly cover the cost of my seats next season. Win/win -
Beane: “working on at least 2 veteran UFA’s”
Kirby Jackson replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
That’s what I thought I heard but he talked about how they wanted to draft a DT at a different point. I guess that I came to that conclusion based on both of those comments. -

Kirby Jackson replied to Warriorspikes51's topic in The Stadium Wall
I got the sense that DL (specifically DT) was an area that we would look to add. FWIW, it was so hard to hear in there yesterday!! That is especially true for Brian Gaine.
