    F’n bungles. Their luck needs to run out. Playing with that calculator the Bills can clinch a birth before week 18 if everything breaks right.  Admittedly that’s a long shot but you never know. 

    There's also the possibility that the Bills-Miami game is scheduled for Sunday night and by then, we might know whether we have a playoff berth regardless of the outcome of the Miami game.

    I have a Christmas dinner at my wife’s cousin’s house.  My father in law and I are the only football fans so no one thought to plan Christmas around the Bills (this would NEVER happen with my family in WNY). 
     

    Care to guess the time of the dinner party? Starts at 6pm. It’s 45 minutes from here. I live on the west coast. So, I will have to drive with NFL Sunday Ticket playing on my phone on the dashboard for the first quarter, then be “that guy” at dinner with my phone propped up next to the ham. 
     

    Wish me luck on this journey. 

    That sucks, but are you even sure you can watch the game on Sunday Ticket?  I thought Peacock is only way to watch it.

  3. My best guess re the Miami game is that it will in fact be for the division (b/c I see Miami losing at least 1 of next 2), and if the Bills lose in Miami, we'll have a chance to get in as WC in one of those if A + B happens or if C + D + E happens, etc.

    It goes both ways.

    We're a 12th man away from being 9-5. We're a missed 59 yard field goal in the rain away from being 10-4. We're probably one interception away from beating the Jets on opening night.

    You are what your record says you are. The calls and the luck of the football bounce both ways. Every team in the NFL can play the "what if" game.

    The Bills are 8-6 and have a realistic shot at the postseason. They recently almost beat the Eagles in Philly, they beat the Chiefs at Arrowhead, and they DESTROYED the hottest team in the league yesterday.

    Let people be excited.

    Perfect response, and you beat me to it!  The coulda shoulda woulda stuff cuts both ways.

  5. He almost got a sack last weekend and definitely caused problems for Mahomes on other plays as well.  And his slow emergence (fingers crossed) happens to be coming when AJE got hurt.  Very beneficial timing!  Putting the off-field stuff aside, a glass-half-full view of things is that we're going to start seeing a healthy dose of the old Von.

  6. Amazing win and equally stressful!  Second game in a row where my son had an indoor soccer game from 6:30-7:30 - Coaches have been nice enough to let me sit behind the bench and keep my son apprised of the game.  And just like 2 weeks ago, after the soccer game, we got to view the end on a real TV (with his friends nearby, all Bengals fans).  And we pulled it off!  So awesome.  Opposite of two weeks ago: Zach's soccer team loses but Bills win.  As fate would have it, guess when his next indoor soccer game is?!

    That was actually a rare great and correct call by the awful zebras. I could see the anger if it wqs thrown after the TD but it was immediate

    Totally agree - It's one of those calls that has to be made and is obvious/clearcut (like 12 men on the field) - If the zebras see it, they have to call it.

    D-Day- “War's over, man. McMediocre dropped the big one

    Bluto: What? Over? Did you say 'over'? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!...

    It ain't over now, 'cause when the goin' gets tough, the tough get goin'. Who's with me? Let's go! Come on!...(He ran to the front door but no one followed him)

    Bluto (returning): What the !@#$ happened to the Bills I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest year of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. 'Ooh, we're afraid to go with you, Bluto, we might fumble, let’s take a knee, ooh I’m a coward and scared of the other team' (shouting) Well, just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Mahomes, he's a dead man! Kelce, dead! Chris Jones ...

    Otter (Tim Matheson): Dead! Bluto's right. Psychotic, but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now, we could fight 'em with conventional weapons. That could take years and cost millions of lives. No, in this case, I think we have to go all out. I think this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.

    We're just the guys to do it...LET'S DO IT!

     

    LETS ***** GO BUFFALO!

    Candidate for post of the year!  Although maybe lost on a lot of you younger folks!

    Some thoughts from a Chiefs fan. 

     

    No surprise but this is going to be a very compelling game. Bill injuries have put your team in a different position than I would have expected coming into the season, but when I watch the Bills play, it still looks like the most formidable offense in the NFL to me. Tons of answers to whatever almost any defense can throw at them. 

     

    On the surface, it feels like the Bills and Chiefs both need to really commit to the running game in order to win this game. The Chiefs pass defense has been exceptional this year and both teams have pretty mediocre run defenses for whatever reason. Sounds crazy to say teams with Mahomes and Allen should run the ball, but it does kinda feel that way. Not sure that's how it will play out though. 

     

    I know the mood in Buffalo is tense. Things in KC are getting pretty tense as well due to the struggles of the offense and the expectations being so high for this team now. In some ways this game feels more tense than the two playoff games these two teams have played. While the Chiefs can make the playoffs if they lose this game, and likely will, there is a general belief that the Chiefs losing this game speaks to their lack of championship character. 

     

    The Chiefs offense is sputtering and still figuring things out. The defense seemed generational until two weeks ago when the Raiders figured out that power running and play action is an effective way to attack. Green Bay leaned into the power run and just bullied the Chiefs offensive line. 

     

    With all the Bills injuries and the Chiefs starting a rookie LT, I will be somewhat stunned if the Chiefs don't come out and try to run the ball right at the Bills. 

     

    Bills win this one 27-24. 

     

     

    Very fair assessment - Fans of opposing teams like yourself are more than welcome on this board!  Appreciate the insights.  My view is that this matchup has almost become like a divisional one since the teams have played so often recently.  Like most Bills fans, I think we're hoping for the best but fearing the worst (e.g., 4th quarter/OT collapse).
