Success

Won’t be the place to get a ring anymore.

Oh, man. I just saw interviews with a group of Pats fans about this. Total cartoons. We’re WINNAHS, that’s why they’re comin’ after us! #7 next yeah! So glad I’m a Bills fan.

They can have 20 extra picks - the reason they win is BB and Brady. Their drafting is unspectacular overall. They get coachable players but few stars. So many pieces on that team are interchangeable. - BB the coach makes BB the GM look a lot better.

Pats fans on twitter already have an endless stream of “prostitution is no big deal” comments. Some have even promised that this will bring them a 7th ring, since the team will be so “mad.” I don’t celebrate the misfortunes of others, but something about this feels karmic. This is the kind of story that changes the direction of a franchise.

I feel like fans who keep repeating those stats didn’t watch the actual games. I wasn’t happy about the pick, but love what I saw out if him - especially in that final stretch of games. He clearly has that “it” factor, and skills-wise, his ceiling is off the charts. As things stand, I think he’ll be the 2nd best QB to come out of this great class. Could take the top spot, though.

Both the Bills and Jets will be much better this year. Those 4 games play a big part in this ranking.

EJ Manuel was not an accurate passer. I don’t see that in Allen. The stats are such a small part of the story with him. His throws don’t have that wild quality. Give him just a little more time and I doubt we’ll still be talking about accuracy as any kind of problem.

I am, but I can’t tell if the reason is just because I’ve been beaten down by the Patriots dominance. Kinda like a horse that’s been broken. They’re calm too.

I appreciate your comments, but I also take some issue to people telling Kap what he “should” be doing instead, as many have done since this started. Everyone expresses themselves in different ways, which is one of the great things about being an American. There are those who work quietly behind the scenes for a cause, and there are also some who just create confrontation and challenge others to think in a different way. Whether people agree or disagree with Kap, it’s undeniable that he brought attention to an issue and started a national dialogue. Personally, I give him credit. I think what he did took courage.

It could play out that way. But Allen’s play at the end of the season has given me more hope. And while Brady’s longevity has confounded me, he’s not a god. This year’s SB win felt like a swan song to me. I think the Jets and Bills will be fighting it out for the division in the years ahead.

I think we have a good shot at the division this season.

I don’t like the New England Patriots. Not one bit.

It’s not a fair fight at this point , and won’t be until BB retires. McVay is 33 and was in his first SB. BB has lived there. I’d have to google to get an accurate total if how many times he has been there.

I love the thought of Darnold and Allen regularly battling it out for 1st place in a few years, while the Pats look up from the cellar going through one QB after another in the impossible quest to replace Brady. In a way, I hate that we have been so incompetent for 2 decades and have been incapable of giving the mighty Pats any kind of challenge in that time. But in another way, it was perfect timing to be inept. They would have always won the division regardless. Allen’s ascendency could be timed almost perfectly to coincide with Brady’s decline and inevitable retirement.

It’s going to be extremely important to me that the Patriots start losing soon, and don’t stop losing for many, many years.

I feel like I still remember every minute of that long drive. It just got more and more frustrating. There was one 3rd and long where about 3 Bills had a chance to make an easy tackle and couldn’t. That extended the drive by about 3-4 minutes and probably decided the game.

I’m patriotsed out.

Every fan base says they’re the greatest fans - but it’s only true with us.

This made my day. No. Really. It did.

Or the division.

He’s alright - he’s had good games and bad games. Your opinion on it is meaningless. Regardless, it’s not pure fantasy to think the Bills could contend.

I don’t dislike Hogan, but he is one of the most overhyped players of all time. A very average receiver. If we picked him up, my most enthusiastic reaction would be a barely perceptible shrug.

Most teams have ceilings and floors going into a season. And most fans tend to focus on the ceiling. It’s not unrealistic given the money they have to spend, the draft picks they have, and the fact that it looks like they finally have a franchise QB after 2 decades, to think the Bills might be able to compete for the division. It always cracks me up that you think we should just be wallowing in misery, without hope and doing nothing but praising the mighty Pats. This is a Bills board - most here are excited for the season to begin. Crazy, right?

Pats fans are cartoons at this point. They have actually made me wonder if I would even want to win that much. I know we have our own issues with the table jumping and occasional questionable projectiles, but I’m so glad I’m a Bills fan.

Basketball and football are both team games.
