I had us at 9-8 before the season and missing the playoffs, with the schedule as tough as it is I think that's very likely, but the Bills often play well against good/great teams so who knows, they may surprise us. If they lose to the Bucs then it will take the mother of all team meetings to get them back on track

Yep. Allen certainly isn't above criticism, but you're right that he doesn't get the credit for doing what he does with so little. Mediocre O-line, never had a great running game, Knox is not close to the top TEs in the league, Davis is an extremely limited number 2 WR, and the rest of the WRs are nothing but journeymen. And yet as you point out he's still right there with the leaders in every category. I guess a Josh skeptic would say he's the reason Knox and the other WRs aren't better, but I'm inclined to say only Andy Reid could make those guys consistently explosive.

He's not a saint. But Bernard is

This is a great take, depressing but great. Maybe the stuff about the film study is true, maybe he was doing more of that back when he was dominant, maybe Daboll went through it with him and made it easier the understand. I have no idea, I'm not a film study guy. All I know is that the offense is making everything look difficult now, even when they score, they don't look fluid or in rhythm at all. It's actually tiring watching them.

It's nearly Christmas, Beane is going with the really good whiskey this year

You can say that again

***** Dorsey! Didn't know how to use this gu... huh? Daboll? Ahhhhhhh

I won't reveal my sources but I've managed to get hold of some footage of McD trying to sneak into the meeting:

Yep. If the season continues like this and we miss the playoffs Dorsey will be the fall guy.

It was the kind of thing a Will Ferrell character would come out with whole announcing a game.

Listening to the postgame show and they just played this clip of Brown calling Cooks TD. It really is a thing of bizarre beauty: COOK HAS FOUND THE KITCHEN! AND THE RECIPE ON THAT TOUCHDOWN? SPICY!!!!!!!

To paraphrase Private Garlick in Good Morning Vietnam, this team licks the sweat off a dead guy's balls.

Yes, a tough guy would be screaming Super Bowl!

Me trying to keep up with all the fire McD threads right now:

In my season standings predictions I posted here before the season, I had us missing the playoffs. I thought that might be an amusing thing to look back on after the season but now I think it might be accurate

We need to look at the tape

It's not even like this is a turning point for NE, they'll be back to getting their a**es handed to them the very next game

Okay guys, let the floodgates open...

Well the calls on WGR are going to be interesting. I'll hang up and listen

Man, I despise Mac Jones' face

We might get to finally see that 80 yard Josh Allen Hail Mary I've always wondered about

Everyone has had a pick 6 gifted from Jones this year but not us, oh no, we're like the one kid who doesn't get a present from Santa

I can't believe Mac f***** Jones is playing like this against us

Incredible tackling
