Odds are against it. A win will just be one that was expected before the season started. Anything less than a complete Bills blowout victory and it will be doom and gloom heading home to face the Chiefs.

Punching at footballs is a fine approach to a turnover seeking defense ( along with sound tackling of course). What isn’t sustainable with turnovers is the fair amount of luck involved recovering them. The ball takes funny bounces, and even when doing the correct thing -(ie falling on the ball vs trying to pick it up) it still goes the other way sometimes. This has happened many times already this year. INTs have been dropped. The opportunities have been there, and they usually are. The luck just dries up at times.

Thats the NFL for you.. never can predict exactly how things will play out. Each season is really its own story, and predictions based on last year are far from guaranteed. Allen repeating as league MVP doesn’t look promising, and the Bills offense as expected has regressed. As expected the main issue is likely the defense. Their performance is likely key to a turnaround or a downfall in 2025.

They’re shattered! Shadooby….

Sure, and the Hunt family will probably have a different definition than the Pegulas. I don’t disagree at all. Maybe the Pegulas definition is winning championships, but they feel staying the course is best. I’m not sure. That’s how it appears. Their opinion or definition along with maybe a few other key advisors is the only one that matters. I can see the argument for both, but I’m starting to think a major overhaul is necessary as the current model is looking shaky and hasn’t managed to stop Reid and Mahomes when it mattered most.

It seems that longtime players may have finally aged out, and several years of mediocre draft pick results are showing through.

Most Bills fans probably don’t frequent a fan form. While it is obviously possible to make a big change during a period of team success, I’d venture these instances weren’t driven by a lack of fan support. They were likely driven by a GM, an impatient owner ( or both ). Perhaps a franchise QB had influence as well. Fans usually support their teams when they’re winning. I’m not lobbying for McDermott here - or against him. I just don’t think fans have much to do with these decisions. Winning is the name of the game.

Maybe not. Young at practice today, so still possible he gets the start.

It’s not a hard cap in the NFL though. There are ways to free up space. The bill eventually comes due, but Allen’s not getting younger.

Strange title. Pretty sure the fan base doesn’t hire/ fire coaches. Most patient ownership maybe, if it’s quantified by firing coaches.

It definitely would. Beanes draft approach seems strange when WR contracts have increased massively in recent years. It’s an odd place to try to fill holes with FA’s.

It’s on a lot more than just a WR. Besides, isn’t every player you sign as a FA one that another team didn’t re sign ?

Can’t see the ‘hawks being sellers right now. They’re in the mix for playoffs and even the NFCW title.

Pretty sure the contract situation makes it a very tough deal to get done.
