My opinion: If you have to hem and haw about what teams we face where and when...we aren't as good as we think. Set em up and knock em down. Not a team in the playoffs to fear.

Neither were good this year. But Cleveland is just ready to end a miserable letdown of a season. Pretty sure they will just be going through the motions.

So, build the dome?

Mayfield is out too. Cleveland looked like they were loading the U-Hauls against the Steelers at the end. I don't think this mayters as much as we hope.

Josh Allen Playoff record: 2-0 at home 0-2 on the road Because math isn't the only answer.

If this week plays out certain ways than it could be the Colts or Pats heading to Arrowhead. A case could be made for either to pull that upset. Bengals are streaking right now, but have been up and down much of the year on a week to week basis. Even in the 4 slot we could host 2 games. Unless the Raiders and Patriots win. I believe Raiders hit the 6 seed then.

We have a starting RB. Fix the line.

And if you didn't see the fine print may I suggest Atwal Eye care for Lasik surgery.

Man, this thread got off topic. Redirection time... Jets suck. Allen eats Saleh defenses for breakfast. Stacy Wilson is going to be another Jet QB bust. And their fans are mouth breathing clowns for the most part

I'm thinking they got with Washington RedHogs. Keeps the HTTR theme they have intact. Pays homage to the "Hogs". Little pig merchandising. Fans just say "The Hogs". Seems to fit well.

I thought this would be a good chance to get rid of the "Washington" part and go with something like the D.C. Destroyers or D.C. Dawgs.

Look at it from another angle. Buffalo football, in January, on a Monday night against their division foes. Cold, blustery "football weather". Gives them the chance to relive the hurricane game. Toss reflections of John Madden and how much he would have loved to be there calling that one. They can tie in Brady and how we have emerged from his shadow. Lots of story there. The NFL doesn't care about the temperatures and fans sitting there. They know for playoff football it will be packed. They make their money.

Buffalo is routinely a very high draw...as are the Pats. Dallas may be a bit draw but if it's a rematch with the Cardinals...they don't typically draw views. Will all depend on the matchups. They may want Mahomes in that spot no matter what though.

I have a feeling that a Pats/Bills round 3 would draw the Monday night slot. Hoping for the earliest Saturday game. Don't want to spend the weekend with those playoff jitters😂😂

I think Baker is toast in Cleveland. They may start him next year...but I don't believe he gets that big payday. Guy has played injured all year and is trotted out in a pretty meaningless game. He's getting sacked left and right. And you keep playing him? Not what you may expect to see if a team values a QB long term. They are paying Keenum well and right now isn't worse than Mayfield by much. Jackson is a hard case. He is just a special athlete. With that MVP he makes a case to get a contract right at or around Allen's. Not sure I would pay that for him. Huntley and Josh Johnson both played well when called upon. Between the cap savings and the incredibly bonkers amount of players/picks trading Lamar would likely bring...would be a great chance to reshape that whole roster...and it really needs it.

Again, sounds like their coach did a great job and they got a W when it should have been an L. Wouldn't shock me to see a close Raider win. Chargers on the road in a divisional battle are no lock.

This was always expected. And it very well may have done them a favor. Titans were using DH a TON. He would have likely been pretty worn for the playoffs. Comes back just in time to be well rested and fresh.

With all that drama and the lack of talent left in that roster the fact that the Raiders are a "win and in" for the playoffs is astounding. Rich Bisaccia seems to have earned his paycheck this year.

Bates is this team's Ed Wang...but more firm and rigid of a player. Wonder if he knows Levitre? I hear through him you can meet Wood.

That would be amazing. Would love Tom hear the commentary. Maybe they can bring in Antonio Brown as a color commentator

While I'm not wanting to continue the COVID talk here...because we both know how the waves ripple from other posters 😂 (more than willing to PM about it) I would be intrested to know exactly how many games in your definition is "serious"? Look at this season. We are at week 18 and need a win to secure the division. We had a razor thin margin for error headed to the last 2 weeks to even get into the playoffs. Even 1 game could very well.mean the difference between a possible chance at a Super Bowl run and heading home after 17 games. That is the reality of today's parity filled NFL.

The odds that football is a physical game and even the toughest players miss time. Ankle rolls, landing wrong on a shoulder, concussion and on and on. And if I recall correctly the freak of nature has shown a human side and missed games his rookie year. Does that make him injury prone? No. But shows he's human and not impervious to being injured. And while Allen is tough and would likely try and tough things out having a suitable back up option is never a bad thing. The bolded is kind of a weird response in my view. We heard the same thing last year. And the year before. Why would you expect next year be much different? Failing to plan is planning to fail. Project the worst and hope it's not needed.

I am hoping that unless some team offers Mitch a substantial opportunity in both money and possble playing time that the Bills make a serious attempt to being him back. We have a physical QB and have dodged him being injured the last couple years. Odds say that won't always be the case. And anyone that watched Mannion attempt to play QB last night or has seen any Giants football for the past month should see how important the backup QB position could be to teams that hope to be in contention. Add into that the possibility of COVID continuing next year with who knows what kind of strands it is better to be overprepared at the QB position than caught with the cupboard bare.

Not worried at all. I believe the last rookie to actually won a playoff game was Russ Wilson. We have beaten the Pats 3 out of the last 4 games we played and the only thing that stopped us was a literal act of God in a hurricane force wind storm. Their running game is good. They have 2 really nice backs. Their defense is good...but I think a bit over rated. I say bring em on.

They did. The 2nd quarter was especially bad. No way to deny that. However, as much as people want to view the Bills as the "Buffalo Josh Allen's" and say he is the only hope...it is still and always will be a team game. For me, it was actually refreshing to see that we can win a game where Allen is off, the passing game is out of sync and we need to make adjustments. I've been a Daboll basher for most of his time here, however give Ol' Bertrum his due...he made the call to switch to the run game and roll with that. The Falcons knew we were going to run and couldn't stop it. He called a heckuva 2nd half after nearly blowing it in the 1st half with cutesy and cocky playcalling.
