I think its the most important game of the year! Our whole season depends on it. If we don't win then we haven't done anything but prove we're the same old Bills.

I think you do everything possible to keep this defense together, while adding to the offense (WR, RB). They can't break the bank, obviously, with several ..key.. players due up in the next couple years. But, they have something special in this group right now. It'd be nice to see them keep it together for a few years.

I was just going to post the same thing. I know what he meant... That they/he had to approach it as just another game. But, I could easily see the Raven defense taking it as throwing some shade. Hopefully, he and the rest of the team stay quiet and focused this week..and into the playoffs. You never know what may serve as motivation for some one.

The missing point in all this talk of 300 yd passing games is where this team is talentwise... currently. Lots of really geat QBs took a couple years to consistently put up big yardage games. Prior to that... they were "game managers" with the ability to lead their team and make big time throws when needed. That is exactly where Josh is right now. Add in the fact that ALL of his WRs ,TEs and RBs were signed last offseadson, while completely overhauling the OLine; and you have a young offense that's still a couple years from being consistently able to put up big numbers. I think people get too hung up on stats and numbers thanks to fantasy football. There used to be a time when you focused on the team and what each individual did each week to help the team win. Too many people now want to look at the top 10 yardage/touch down/sack leaders and define them as good. The Bills (similar to the cheaters mold) don't have a lot of stat leaders, but they have a solid team with each player doing their part in the game plan. For those still concerned, give the offense and Josh a little time. Beane himself even said they have a long way to go. Let's enjoy the ride as we hopefully keep moving forward.

I texted a friend 2 words... We're *****.

Agreed.. If Payton and Greggo got a ban... How can they not ban him for far longer? He is and has been actively cheating and undermining the league's rules for years. It's a complete slap in the face to every other franchise if its anything less.

I was in Prague for Christmas 2 years ago when we made it. Try a vpn service? Don't know if this is your first time in Prague, but I loved it. Beautiful city, especially at Christmas time. Enjoy!!

Completely agree.... The experience a couple seasons ago will pay dividends in a few weeks, as will winning primetime games like last night. It's fun watching this team and these players learn to win games like this. It's been far too long for us all. But we've earned the joy we're experiencing today.

I think it also important to note... the Steelers pretty much had a playoff berth on the line as well. They were in that all to familiar position of needing to win 2 of the last 3 and have a few teams help them. They needed last night's game. At home, riding a win streak, tough game against the Ravens to end the season. This was a game they needed! And we went into their house and won. How many past Bills teams would have done that? In prime time no less. The culture has changed. The Bills don't lay down for anyone. I agree. The drought is now officially done!! The 2nd playoff appearance in 3 years, proves the first time was not a fluke. And this time, the Bills took control of their destiny; won the games they had to; and made it with 2 weeks to spare. The culture has changed. Winning football is expected and accomplished. From the owners to the front office and coaches... they've done what we've been waiting forever for. It feels pretty damn good.

It's been 20 years since we've seen a season like this. 20 years. The feeling was nearly indescribable when they got the 1st game winning interception. Then the panic set it when they ran 30seconds off the clock and I realized they were giving the ball back. I just knew a Billsy end was about to happen. Then... the 2nd game winning interception happened!!! This team is different. This team is doing what we haven't seen in ..decades. This team makes me wanna shout! This team just punched their play off tickets..early! Enjoy it Bills' fans. We've all earned it. ***** yeah!!! Let's go!!!! Go Bills!

I've forgotten how late the Sunday night game is! I haven't seen a Sunday (or Monday) night game in years. Cause ya know... who cares about most of the teams they always put on. But damn.. this wait is killin me! Can we just get this thing started already!! Go Bills!!

It's apparent. Brady's arm is in big decline. He's forcing it on most throws. Hence the once easy throws are off. We saw the same thing wth Manning and Favre. At some point, especially late in the season, the throws just aren't there. That's why they're stealing teams offensive signals now. They need the defense to carry them.

Its funnny. When the Bills and the cheating team had similar records with an similarly easy schedule. They were considered sooo much better. Becuase, ya know, they've proven they're a good team and they earned the right to be called good. The Bills had not. Well know... With yet another cheating allegation, people say wait to see the evidence. How do you know it was that bad? I say. They've proven they're a cheating team and they earned that reputation. They have to prove that this was nothing and not a continued escalation of what they were fined for over a decade ago. They don't deserve the benefit of the doubt here. Every record, accomplishment and streak is suspect. Because... They earned that suspicion.

Would it have to sound like a deranged dinosaur? Wtf was that?

Why don't we start ..openly.. recording them in every game they play. Have some knock on the locker room door and ask if they can come in. Have a guy juar roam their side line during games. Every day in practice fly a helicopter over the field. Stupid *****.. But just ***** with them.

If they lose this week... And the Bills win. We're palying them for the Division title in 2 weeks. Seems like beating that team at the bittom of the league is pretty important. The more important question is... Why would a team with the greatest coach and QB of all time, with the best defense in the league, need to doing anything like this? Only rational answer.. They need these advantages to get 10+ wins ever season and be considered the greatest.

I absolutely hate the line of thinking that... Well.. Everyone should be cheating. Or that teams should have counter measures in place to safeguard against their cheating. Why do we have any rules at all?? No! One team is the problem. Everyone does not do this. Everyone else should not be forced to compensate while one team does this. The guilty party needs to be sanctioned and stopped, period. Bar them from any post season play for 3 or more years and dismantle their current program. They are still cheating, they've always cheated. No small fine or loss of a draft pick is going to stop them. Here we all are... Hoping the Bengals some how win on Sunday and then we beat the Steelers so that we have a ..chance.. at the division and home playoff games. And how will we all feel when the Bengals lose?? And we don't get home palyoff games, even if we win out? Will it be because one team was just better than us? Or will it be becuase they cheated and gained unfair advantages all season? How many of their 10wins this year are because they cheated? How many of their wins were because they had an unfair knowledge of the other team? Maybe their defense isn't as dominating when they don't know the other team's plays/signals/whatever? Bottomline... We don't know how good they are because we don't know how extensively they have been cheating. But we do know that the Bills' chance of getting a home playoff game, let alone a real chance at the Super Bowl is diminished because they play in a division where one of the teams cheats week in and week out.

Here's my take... everyone says this is a "low level gain". That they don't get anything really useful from it. That they're such a great team they don't need to do this, especially when facing a 1 win team. But... consider the alternative. They actually get a lot of useful information. So much so that the only reason they're such a good team is they've been cheating and using this information for more than a decade. Take away the video tapes, the signal stealing, the headset communications, the audio in visitors locker rooms, the deflated balls, and lord only knows what else... and maybe none of their players or coaches, including Brady and Belicheck, are the greatest of all time. They're just a bunch of people that have lied, cheated, and swindled the league. Take away the systemic cheating and my guess is they're all worse than average and Brady and company would be lucky to win one Super Bowl.

Forfeiture of the remaining games this season. Then similar to college, no postseason play for a couple years. They are a long time, repeatedly cheating franchise. Something serious needs to be done. Any one saying it's not that big a deal has to explain why they keep doing it time after time, knowing they shouldn't.

I've been waiting for more than a decade for the Bills to just look like a professionial football team. They didn't win today. But it was a close game. And they ..do.. look like a legit team. Allen needs to keep learning and growing. We need a WR to be a true #1 and catch tough, contested balls. And an offensive line that can handle a blitz. We'll get there. But for now, the Bills are a real team. They're on the rise. I'm disappointed with a loss, but not totally down on them.

Absolutely! Its a must win game. Probably the most important game of the decadae. Until the following week when the next game will be the most important game of the year.

Agreed. His down field accuracy is completely off the charts bad. I don't even get it.

Given the lack of time Allen had all afternoon to let receivers make moves, I can't completely blame him for not wanting to wait. ? It was a quick decision. Personally I'm glad he went for the score. I just don't think the WRs were helping him much. I was saying on the 3rd down he shoulda just ran a QB draw. I had no faith someone would catch any pass.

Here's my issue with these types of screen caps... you're saying he didn't see the guy underneath. But he's clearly set and aboutto throw. To make a better judgment on what he saw/or missed. What did that guy look like a second or two prior to the screen capture?? And did he have an ange to see him with everyone up front. Finally.. I'm not so sure the Raven defender knocked the ball away. I think it went right by him.l and his arm swipe distracted Brown. The throw was right on the money. Brown just needs to fight through the defender and catch it.

Complete inability to handle the blitz nearly got Allen killed. And once again...drops... of balls literally hitting receivers on their hands. We need a way to counter the blitz. And we need receivers that step up and catch the ball when he game is on the line.
