not a prayer. We would have been completely annihilated. The Chiefs got embarrassed and look what they did to us. There's something to be said for Any Given Sunday, but KC was perfect against us and TB was perfect against KC. We're a very good team that won a lot of football games this year, but we have to be a lot more multiple in every phase of the game and capable of executing with perfection reliably to knock off the best of the best. Getting a Devin White would help.

None of them? There isn't an Andy Reid, Bettis, Elway, etc that's way overdue that I see there. Evans is young, Fournette sucks, Suh is a dirtbag, Bell made a mess.

He was a good GM that never got to hire his own coach or draft his own Quarterback. Not sure what you expected. If Josh Allen was Josh Rosen, I'm pretty sure Beane isn't Executive of the Year.

This is the first thing I think of when a Bills fan says they want the Bucs to win. It's obvious that I want any team that beats me to be perceived to be as strong as possible.

Not unless there's a Derwin James for us the draft, and we draft him, and he doesn't get hurt. You can't just replace Hyde with who we have or a guy off the street. If Ben Retires, maybe you can get Fitzpatrick. Shockingly he's only 30 which is quite young for a lot of safeties. He just kinda plays like an old man.

You think he's going to sweat which #4 WR played when the Chiefs scored on every drive but the first? We could had had Calvin Johnson out there and the result probably wouldn't have changed unless we lined him up on defense too.

7 catches for 88 yards, lol.

Thanks for the breaking news Captain Hindsight.

It depends what you mean by "screwed". If we're screwed int he sense that we're on the Peyton Manning side of the Brady rivalry, then probably, but careers are long. Brady, the greatest of all time, only even made it to SB less than half of his seasons. You can't win it all every year, so some of those years will be opportunities for Josh. At this point however, Mahomes is a perfect football player playing on a perfect football team. How do you do beat that? Build a perfect football team and try to get lucky.

I don't think we need him to. He's gotten deep plenty this year, and you can use McKenzie in that deep role when you need it. Additionally, I think you also draft someone, and if you want them to be a burner, so be it. Diggs was used as a deep threat in Minnesota too. I really don't see it as a problem.

You're talking about the the uppermost echelon of generational player. If he wins the Super Bowl in 2 weeks he's already a top 10 player all-time if he never plays another down. You're being ridiculous.

Ok, you win.

I think the plan was always to cut Brown this season, based on how his deal was structured. He was a good player for us, but he's no longer needed. Gabe Davis takes over his role and you draft a new WR to backfill and compete with Hodgins.

Josh really didn't play very well, at least not to the standard he set his year, all of the post season. That said, and as one of the biggest former Allen haters in Bills fandom, give the kid a break. It's not his fault he's not Mahomes. Allen made a historic leap that no QB has ever come close to this year. If he only gets marginally better from here on out, it'll be good enough to get it done at some point. You're asking way too much from someone that already gave us more than we deserved.

No offense, but apparently it is. It gives you no advanatge to go for 2 points later if the result is the same - it just gives you a longer sweat. By going for it earlier, it may have even been to our advantage, because it lets you know what you now need to win. By kicking the Field Goal, down 14 points with 3 minutes we gave ourselves a chance to get a second onside kick score a TD before the 2 minute warning and then either onside again or kickoff with 3 Time Outs and the 2 minute warning needing only a TD to tie. Regardless, the whole point is moot. The decisions in the final 5 minutes had no bearing on the outcome of the game. We lost in the 2nd quarter, and the nail was in the coffin with 13 minutes left on Allen's interception.

No, and they really never have been. For all of his altehtic talent, and the fact that hE's OnLy [insert age here], Edmunds is a liability when actually playing football and Oliver is a mostly invisible player that can probably hang around the league but will never be an impact player. Neither one is good enough to start ona team that wants to dethrone a dynasty. We need an All-Pro in the middle that can stop the pass and the run.

I'd argue even Hill isn't required. They've dropped all sorts of guys in similar roles, like Hardman.

So you want our loss in the AFCCG to be against a team that loses to a 43 year old QB? I don't. I want them to win it all and shut out the Bucs 72-0.

And Kenny Stills or Duke Williams was the guy that could bring us to victory? You have a complete lack of respect for who we just played against and who will be hoisting their second consecutive Lombardi in a couple weeks.

It comes down to talent. Step 1 is finding a RB capable of being #1. You do that next year. The year after that, you replace Morse with someone that can run block.

Our #4 Wide Receiver wasn't a major factor in the game!?

That may make the game more exciting for Joe Fan, but it doesn't change the math. In fact, it probably works against you.

This is so dumb. They were dinged up, but they weren't injured. We didn't lose because they were a 1/5th of a step slower. We were outcoached in terms of gameplan and outclassed in terms of talent - neither or which was there much anyone could do anything about. This is the first year in 27 years that we've been a very good team - it's ok not to win it all the first time. We need more talent, and we need to be more diverse in our scheme. That's really all there is to it. The Chiefs are defending SB Champs, have a QB that's led them to 3 AFCCG before the age of 26 and are already looking like another all-time great dynasty. Not everything is somebody's "fault". You can't stop destiny.

You still need the two points to win, regardless of when it comes. The whole "delay it until later" point is just pushing it down the road. There is no avoiding war; it can only be postponed to the advantage of others.

It's like the '89 Broncos running into Montana's 49ers and the embarrassment of riches they had. Even Elway needed 4 cracks at it before he was able to get it done.
