    Perfect outcome would be something like 20-6 Chiefs. 

     

    Chiefs easily win but Mahomes looks pedestrian against Flores defense keeping the door cracked for Allen to inch even closer in the MVP race. Dolphins offense with Tua under center has a hard time moving the ball much beyond the 50 yard line.

    I think Mahomes and his WRs are licking their chops thinking about going up against man to man

    McDermott and Daboll will go back to their bland and stale running game  which will make Allen feel out of sync. Josh will miss some key 3rd down throws and will fumble the ball away two times in the red zone.

     

    Final score

    Bills 9

    Steelers 39.

    I hope I'm wrong but I'm usually right all the time.

    If the Steelers score 39 pts, we've got bigger problems than Josh

  3. How many points do the Bills have to score Sunday night?  Steelers give up an average of under 18.  I think if we put 24 on the board we win.  But those 24 will prove to be very tough to get.  Josh will be under pressure all night.  Small ball wins this game and Josh has to manage that type of game.

    Not just that, but taking the throw to Motor or Knox in the flats.  I'm the one who's been so frustrated with Allen's unwillingness to do that over the past years that I've factitiously suggested equipping them with 10 ft blaze orange fiberglass snowpoles to help Josh spot them.

    I think those all reds should do the trick

    Yeah,  I just can't even.  And what is this argument that it doesn't matter that we beat the Rams and LV because they weren't playing well at the time?  How about we get a pass on losing to the Titans and the Chiefs because "we weren't playing well at the time"

     

    The answer is we don't, and neither do they.  We won.  They lost.  We lost.  They won.  Period.

    Revel in the fact that the fewer doubters that exist right now are in the small minority.  A year ago, the small minority was made up by those that believed.  That pendulum has swung a lot in the last year.

    This is a good cut up of Nation media cut ups and what their saying about the bills heading into sunday night. Nick wright with a gem to start it off. LOLOL..... and then i love the fact, that at the end of the whole thing, they show Chris Canty on "get up" as the ONE person i've seen over the last month reference the strength of our wins and the quality teams we've lost to as his lead up to us having a gripe as AFC squad #2. He's the anti-keyshawn johnson. 

     

     

    What the National Media is saying about Josh Allen | Buffalo Bills | NFL - YouTube

    When Nick has to pick and chose a short period of time to defend his opinion, rather than considering the entire body of work, you know his narrative is wrong.  It's just that simple.  The guy's a knucklehead and is very easy to see through.

    As good as Allen plays on the field, his intangibles and what he does off the field are even better. Have you ever heard anything lile that about Allen? People rave about his leadership skills...Murray it seems like only is a good leader when times are good but disappears when the team actually NEEDS his leadership ability during tough times. Not a good sign.

     

    This sounds pretty Jay Cutler like. Murray has all the talent in the world but he isn't going to do much if he doesn't learn how to be a better leader.

     

    Quote from Bart Scott:

     

    “This isn’t a one-off,” said Scott. “If you listen to some of his other interviews after they’ve lost, especially last year after a tough season, he doesn’t come off to me as a leader of men.”

     

    Scott added, “I think he’s all about me because he doesn’t put the onus on himself. He puts it on ‘We have to do something better’ when the team struggles.

     

    “That tells me he’s a finger pointer and not a thumb pointer. Listen, I said it first — Kyler Murray is not a leader of men and if this team hits adversity, they lose Fitzgerald, they ever have an injury to Hopkins, he’s going to come apart at the seams. He’s going to be one of those guys that goes out and spazzes out on a reporter. He’s going to be one of those guys. I know what I know and I know what I’m watching.”

    These guys live under a microscope.  Any flaw gets exposed.  I'm not defending him, simply stating reality.  I actually cringe every time Josh or any other of our players get behind a mic.  The local media is pretty good but the national media always seems to toss in a couple of gotcha questions that one really needs to be thoughtful about answering.

    I always check out the competitions boards before we play them.  Quite often sign up for an account and chit chat about the upcoming game...when I went to the steelers forum this time I found this.  *****...you would think they are 1 and 11 and not 11 and 1.  Also saw a couple other threads that it seems the majority think we will crush them.  Shocked really. 

     

    Anyway thought I'd share.

    I also check out the opponents boards.  I don't post.

     

    It's interesting to see the kind of fans on opponent boards.  While there are fans on all boards, at both extremes, I found the 49er fans to be mostly realistic regarding their expectations.  I visited the Steelers board the other day and found and thought the same thing.  Lots of introspection in that fanbase.

    The GMFB crew we're raving about him, so we're the NBC sports guys, and Shannon Sharpe was in awe of some of what he did.

     

    Nick Wright just needs a hug and some clicks.  He's got nothing but to troll.

    The hate is deep in Nick Wright.  He's sounds like a huge Browns and Mayfield fan and with him it seems it can't be both, bur one or the other.

    Still on cloud 9 after that win. Game plan by daboll was a thing of beauty, probably the best called game offensively I've seen in twenty plus years. Josh Allen was incredible, made multiple throws that left me in awe. Defense is playing physical, and starting to form an identity similar to last seasons. Really really impressed 

    The snowball is rolling

    I kept hearing that he 49ers were the #1 team in the NFL vs slot receivers coming into the game. Challenge Accepted...

    All fumbles that occur on the hand-off are credited to the QB. It's always been that way. It was 100% on Moss, but Allen takes the hit.

    Probably, Allen doesn't care.  He'll gladly take it for Moss and the team.

  12. I'm calling it.  Pick 6 tonight

    The SJ Mercury says two things the 49ers need to do to win.

     

    1. Make JA throw he’s a dangerous runner but not the complete QB like Wilson or KM. KM!! Wow don’t think writer has seen JA plays-too funny.

    2. Nick M has to channel his Jimmy G

     

    So that’s the key from Niners beat writer. Yikes 😳 

    I love that SF game plan

    The one thing I’m certain of... if the Bills have 10pt lead in the 3rd quarter, the flags against us will start flying fast and furious.

    I will say, however, that most of those 2nd half flags against us that I've seen have been correct.  There is at least one second half offensive drive every dang game were we seem to find our way to 20-35 penalty yards.  Drive killers.  Officials don't necessarily need to pile on our self inflicted penalties.

    I could see McDermott setting up a self-imposed bubble for the playoffs, and I think the players would buy-in. As for players preferentially getting the vaccine, I don’t think so. It’s just a game. I love football, but the only reason they’re still playing (when everyone is preaching social distancing) is for tax revenues. 

    Professional athletes treated preferentially for the vaccine simply shouldn't even be a thing.  There are so many others that need to be in line long before pro athletes are.
