  1. Good to see not everyone is over confidant the Bills will win this game. It will be a daunting task for the Buffalo Bills to go into Arrowhead in a playoff game and win, IMHO. Both teams look to be hot and peaking right now. If the Chiefs cheat and hold the Bills WRs like they did in last years AFC Champ game...and the Refs let them get away with it again. Gonna be a long day for the Bills. All things being equal I'm hoping the Bills keep their mojo going from that beatdown of the Patriots and beat the Cheaters...err, Chiefs. I don't care about the score as long as Buffalo moves on to the Championship game.
  2. When you're right... @Doc "Reports came out prior to the tweets coming out that the Browns were locked-in on Mayfield. And if some old tweets were enough to change their minds..." "Late Thursday morning, about nine hours before the draft, he gathered the senior staff to tell them the order of the quarterbacks, and what he was likely to do with the top pick—take Mayfield. He kept the board covered until early evening, and shortly before the draft began, the room knew the QB order. And, of course, who the top pick would be. How’d I find out on the Sunday night before the draft that the pick definitely would not be Josh Allen" https://www.si.com/nfl/2018/04/30/baker-mayfield-cleveland-browns-draft-mmqb-peter-king Interesting note... " Josh McDaniels who visited Mayfield in his hometown of Austin on Monday. That would lend credence to the theory in some corners that if Mayfield dropped down to, say, six or seven in round one, New England might have been able to offer enough to move up from the 23rd pick in the round to tempt a team in trade." Even Arizona... • They got very little action on the No. 4 pick. Four teams called Dorsey with interest in moving up. None got serious. Only one team (I’d guess Arizona) offered a 2019 first-round pick as part of the package to move, which is surprising considering that two quarterbacks were still on the board when the fourth pick came up. The team willing to include its first-rounder next year said to Dorsey before the draft began: “I’m coming up for one player and one player only, and that’s Baker Mayfield.”
  3. The Cleveland Browns were locked in on Josh Allen as their #1 overall pick! But then, someone released some tweets hours before the 2018 NFL draft by Allen having made derogatory remarks while in high school. (Wonder who could have done this *cough* *cough*) "ARLINGTON, Texas – Quarterback prospect Josh Allen said he was “deeply sorry” for racially insensitive tweets that surfaced early Thursday, hours before the start of the NFL draft. Allen did not deny sending the tweets, which were reported by Yahoo Sports on Thursday and included racial slurs and other offensive language, when he was in high school." https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/draft/2018/04/26/josh-allen-tweets-nfl-draft-2018-first-round/556369002/ Sure didn't stop the Buffalo Bills from trading up in the draft and selecting Josh Allen
  4. Man, I sure hope the Bills coaches, players don't have this much over confidence.
  5. So many things wrong in that SB IMO. The Bills didn't run Thurman nearly enough from the start! 15 carries for the guy that got them that far was almost criminal. The Bills ran more then they threw it in those days, 425 pass attempts vs 479 run attempts. That Norwood 47 yard FG was on grass shouldn't have even been attempted in knowing that Norwood kicked poorly on grass and his leg was weak. 47 yards for him would be like a 60 yarder for Bass. 8 seconds left they should have tried one more pass to the sideline. That Buffalo defense was built to speed rush the passer... but lame as heck in stopping the run. NY Giants Time of Possession 40:33 vs 19:27 for Buffalo. Geez, change up the players to stop the run. The Giants didn't have Phil Simms who was injured, as their backup QB was playing, force them to pass. The fact that Bruce Smith had his hand on the Giants QB's wrist with the ball in his hand... in the end zone. Thought for certain that would have been a Buffalo TD. Simply out coached. It's like nobody on the Buffalo staff watched film on the Giants.
  6. First off, it's only natural for a team that just played a "perfect" game against a hated division rival...blow them out in a playoff game (30 point differential) to have a let down. That Buffalo Bills stadium was "crazy town happy" that Saturday night. This let down could happen on so many levels. That was against the #2 defense in the NFL too. The main let down in thinking that they are so good... that all they need to do is show up and they win! That 1990 Bills team overlooked the fact that the NY Giants had just beaten a prolific 14-2 49er offense 15-13! Next, beating the Chiefs at Arrowhead will be a daunting task as KC scored on 6 drives...42 points against the Steelers defense! Yes, I know...Pittsburgh was 9-7-1 with the 20th ranked defense. Still, they saw what Buffalo did and wanted to show them that they are still an offensive powerhouse...and they are! On another note, I can recall back in the 90s, then Chiefs HC Marty Schottenheimer whining that the AFC Championship game should be moved to a neutral site. A playoff game in Buffalo was just to much of a challenge for any team. That crying went nowhere. Gotta remember...these Chiefs play dirty...they hold like crazy...remember Tony Romo calling the Chiefs defense "sticky" in last years Champ game? Their O line was holding, their DBs were holding and meanwhile the Buffalo Bills were playing clean and getting toasted for it. My hope is the Bills re-watch last years super bowl game in which the Bucs defense destroyed the Chiefs and had Mahomes running for his life! They held that vaunted KC offense to three field goals, 31-9. Buffalo needs to figure a way to copy that spectacular Tampa Bay performance. I also think that Tom Brady being Brady... spoke to the refs before the game and told them to watch out for all the holding the Chiefs do. Chiefs were flagged 11 times for 120 yards. The very first series the Chiefs were flagged for holding. On an even field... the Chiefs were smoked! Lastly, nobody should be over confidant that this game is a win either way. It should be a war! Kinda wish the Bills had Tre for this one...That #1 defense is about to be tested big time. Just think, the Bengals or Titans are so happy that they won't need to face both the Bills and the Chiefs as one will get knocked out after this game.
  7. Think about that for a min. In my view Gruden had complete autonomy as he was able to hire a TV draft analyst as his GM! (Know any other NFL HC's that could have gotten away with that?) It was Gruden that liked QB Nathan Peterman... Look at some of those later picks, DE Maxx Crosby in the 4th, WR Hunter Renfro in the 5th. Like Yolo stated, this firing was probably a condition of Harbaugh being hired as he most likely wants more control like Gruden.
  8. The 2021 Raiders go 10-7, make the playoffs since 2016...let's fire the GM.
  9. Mike Vrabel... The Raiders franchise is a tire fire and will continue to be one until a Davis is no longer the owner.
  10. The reason I said what I said about the media. Yes, they mentioned it a few times. Not nearly enough in my view! Just imagine if that were the Patriots putting up those kind of historic numbers...we would never hear the end of it! That would be all they talk about 24-7 for the week. Belichick would be canonized. My hope now is that the Bills don't treat this game like the 1990 Bills did and think that they are the best thing ever now. Beating the Chiefs in Arrowhead will be a daunting task as the Refs will be overlooking the holds on Bills WRs and defenders like in last seasons AFC Championship game. Remember Tony Romo calling their defense "sticky"?
  11. Media not talking about it enough afaic. That historic NFL multi first beatdown was against the #2 defense in the NFL too. The Patriots were supposed to meet Brady in this years super bowl by a lot of media types... As awesome as that complete devastation of Bill Belichick's team by literally crushing his desire to show the world it wasn't all Tom Brady...it was all ole Bill...WRONG! He has announced he will be back for the 2020 season to boot. As much as I relish this win against the hated New England Patriots. I want to see this team crush the Chiefs and go on to beat the Bengals or Titans... while finally destroying the NFC Championship team in the big dance.
  12. I love Fitz ...I love him even more as a Bills fan! So awesome to see him shirtless at that Buffalo playoff game!
  13. Welcome to the Buffalo Bills coaches world the last 20 years in stopping Tom Brady. Dick Jauron is still having nightmares about Brady to Moss...
  14. What a great game and a great time to be a Buffalo Bills fan! Thank you Terry, Kim for keeping this team in Buffalo!
  15. Holy shiiite...47 points against the #2 defense of the NE Patriots...it...doesn't...get...much...better! Perhaps if the Bills beat NE in the SB...hey, maybe Brady?
  16. And the NY Giants, Denver Broncos...meanwhile Cleveland passed on Josh 2x 🤣
  17. The Patriots players look to be very happy after scoring that TD against the Bills 2nd stringers Even after getting REEMED by the Buffalo offense 47-17
  18. Darn shame the Bills didn't do this at the start of the season...undefeated perhaps?
  19. Just think there were many tickets available to go to this game. wonder if the fans that didn't go... now wish they had...despite the cold. One for the ages that every Buffalo Bills fan will remember!
  20. PUNTER...PUNTER...we don't need No steenking punter!
  21. It's been sooooo many years since that game. That one was for the right to go to the SB. But ya know what! This feels just about as good in rubbing it in Belicheats, and all the Pats fans face! 20 years of domination was from Tom Brady and not this unsmiling turd!
  22. I kinda hope he takes the Miami job Frazier takes the Chicago job
  23. Josh Allen says to Patriots fans...how ya like me now!!! 40-10 Buffalo Bills stomp Bill Belichick, the defensive...
  24. I gotta wonder... will he have Josh Allen as his QB in his next gig?
  25. 33 to 10...I still can't help but be nervous. Our #1 NFL defense giving a TD to these clowns
