are the bills just trying to get to the playoffs to open up the play book a bit more/ keep guys as healthy as possible? This season has seen a drop in pre snap motions and any sort of slant passes/crossing routes over the middle

The team kind of reminds me of the 06-07 sabres team. Super talented but if you watched them all season something was just off. Turns out that team lacked the physicality and toughness needed for playoff hockey This bills team is super talented but something has been off all year

My conspiracy is that the league has directed the refs to call the better teams tighter in the 1st quarter/1st half in games where its projected to be a blow out in order to keep the games as close and entertaining as long as possible. It's been 2 games in a row where in the first half the bills a double digit favorite seem to get called for just about everything early but then the second half gets called a bit more evenly Great example is the tre white flag on the opening drive, no idea how you single one guy out in that situation

It hasn't been just one game though We have been out played and out coached the last 3 games

Punting is conceding the game or trying to win in ot against the worst defense in the league Punting was a joke

Why are you punting there

The offensive line is brutal

I bet if you asked a number of bills fans who they were rooting for in that 2001 super bowl between the rams and pats you'll find a solid number say pats Lesson, everyone loves an underdog. In the beginning when a new team starts winning everyone loves them. Its the constant winning that turns a team into the villain

Original poster generally seemed curious as to the base thought process, I tried my best to just deliver the base ideas

Your last line is what my last line is Yes each individual event is a 50/50, but as you add events probabilities/odds/chances do change The odds of flipping a coin 5 times and getting heads each time is something like 3%. I was trying to simplify a mathematical conversation on a football message board

Trubisky is honestly the perfect back up for this team but if he is traded cam isn't a terrible option If your back up has to play the rest of the season/playoffs your season is over with anyway no matter who your back up is The bills are near the point where to win a super bowl you want a back up QB to be able to win 1.5 playoff games (my opinion). I think Newton is a good option for that, not because he is good or will win us the games but because he can play a style and have a set game plan ready to go mid game. He gets into the game you go ball control, power sets QB run runs, short passes and you try to win the game by 3pts. Like the style of play fits the rest of the team(defense&special teams) I would much rather keep trubisky but I see the reasoning behind newton being a solid option

Trade allen for a boat load, build up the lines even more and really become a super bowl contender

Week 18, anything is possible. Just ask Matt Flynn. 1 game can get qbs paid

His name is Nick W. Bills fans do not like Nick W's

As long as the bills have another back up ready to replace trubisky I'm comfortable with it He'll even tyrod could be an option if trubisky is moved

Is that all they save on the cap by trading him? Thought he was like an 8-10 mil cap hit Not my first choice either but if I had to pick a qb between Webb/fromm/newton to win a playoff game playing 3.5 quarters because your starting QB is out for the rest of the game, I don't have much faith in scoring any points with a webb or fromm led offense

Trading him now would be to move out salary for another player coming in

I agree but id rather go with cam over Webb/fromm/Barkley. I don't believe any of those guys could win a playoff game If trubisky is traded, I hope we have a new back up ready to go

Trade trubisky, would the bills sign cam Newton?

Trubisky out for a pick, fuller in?

Mahomes doesn't look good Way too much talk about needing to go through all the reads. Thats not something you hear about from a rodgers or Brady

Is it still a hot take that mahomes has been figured out?

Josh saying the new stadium won't likely be a dome, so he has to get used to the weather Does he know more or just what has been published

Why didn't they concede! Selfish.

The summary of what louis Riddick just did about mahomes is something that announcers have done for guys like Daniel jones or Justin fields. Not a former MVP $500 million QB
