Diggs best years were behind him once Brady took over. And he still put up close to 1200 yards. Who on this roster is capable of looking like a number 1 ?

The Patriots glazing on this forum is just insane. People act like the Bills got slaughtered. Forget about the questionable flags, I won’t even go there. Is this like some minor form of Stockholm Syndrome? I just have a lot more belief in Josh Allen than others. He’s been doubted his entire life and it continues in the NFL. Brady doesn’t choose the players. He has no #1 to utilize! You can’t make filet mignon with a dead raccoon scraped off the side of the road.

I’m one of those ppl that needs to see multiple years of great production before I’m sold. The Patriots schedule is a joke. The only remaining elite team they face is Tampa.

Hate to say it, but Allen is NOT THE BEST at leading his receiver. How many times do receivers get immediately tackled upon completing the pass? I remember Diggs getting hit constantly. He’s definitely improved these past 2 years, I just don’t think he has that natural accuracy like a Brees or Maye. Which is fine because he has so many other awesome qualities. 👍 Edit: you know who had a freakin’ phenomenal deep ball?? JP Losman

I remember during his Jets days. EVERY player wanted to play for Rex. Guys were saying it while being on another team. Those Hard Knocks episodes were the best of the series. He connects with players on the level of Gruden, Dick Vermiel, and Dungy. I never understood the hate for him. Being an introvert, I get jealous of people who are so easily able to form deep relationships. A lot of these players didn’t have a father figure growing up and Rex Ryan definitely filled that role for a lot of them. I don’t want to derail this into another person, but I’ve always felt McDermott had that same quality just in a different way. A good coach instills more than just football lessons, but life ones as well.

I agree on Dalton, but Carolina has one of the best running backs in the league. I think he still averaged over 5 yards a carry against Buffalo, but they were able to take them out of the run very quickly.

Thanks for noticing.

I’ve been a fan of Rex since he took Brady down with Mark Freakin Sanchez. HATED HATED HATED the hire though for Buffalo. I still quote his “Let’s go get a snack!” line fairly often.

The AFCN has fallen a long way down from yesteryear. If Pittsburgh loses this game, that division is wide open.

Beautiful moment with Rex Ryan on his former player.

I’m sorry, but I can’t stand the way Ray Davis plays. Reminds me of the way Marshawn Lynch ran his first couple of years here. Just runs full speed into a pile of lineman. I always thought Fred was the more fluid runner Truthfully, I can’t stand North-South running backs. Give me a slasher with underrated speed like Cook or Shady McCoy anyway. Love to watch a natural runner do their thing. My only gripe is lack of targets in the passing game. I’m not sure who exactly is at fault, but it’s strange not having your biggest weapon catch passes. He’s a poor man’s singletary.

I mean I would want MY wife to think I am more than just my chosen career. What is exactly wrong with that? It doesn’t mean he’s gone soft or is going to retire early. Allen doesn’t take the beating a guy like Andrew Luck or David Carr took. Even when he does get hit, he’s good at minimizing the impact. The NFL has made tremendous strides in protecting the QB. I think Allen is too much of a competitor to leave the game early. I can honestly picture him playing until 40. Who knows what medical technology will be available by then ?

Agreed. It’s a WR problem, not a QB one. Allen is in year 9 and has had no problem connecting with WRs in the past. He made Diggs the most productive WR during his 4 year stint here. Diggs, Smoke Brown, Cole Beasley all long time Vets before coming to Buffalo had each of their career years w/ Allen under center. So yeah, it’s not him.

Cook and the offensive line. Jimbo already has 75% of his rushing yards (753) from 2024 in just 7 weeks. I think he will have over 1500/15 TDs by the end of the year. It’s an honor to eat crow. I thought the Bills could survive without him. Thank God I’m not GM

I feel sick for Joe Flacco. He balled out like it was the 2012 playoffs. That defense is historically bad.

I think Josh is a rhythm thrower the way some running backs need consistent carries to get into a flow. I think he managed the game well and made some good throws as well as some terrible ones too. 3 TDs is 3 TDs whether 2 of them were from a yard out or not. Just because Josh makes it look easy doesn’t mean it was.

Allen had some top notch coaching his first few years. They molded him into an offensive machine. Maye was a lot more polished coming out of college whereas Allen had to be broken down and reconstructed. Not to take away from McDaniels who is obviously a well respected coordinator who’s been around a long time, but Daboll is no slouch either.

I still call them defensive ends FWIW. It got confusing with DEs and OLBs in a 3-4 are the same thing so I think that’s why.

The one thing Maye has over Allen is a lethal deep ball. He was dropping buckets the entire day.

Carolina was red hot with one of the best running backs in the NFL and the Bills destroyed them. I don’t care what happens against KC. This was a solid win against a solid team. Beating the Chiefs in the regular season no longer impresses me like it used to.

Where you at ?

Bills coming off a bye week, McDermott/Allen duo have never lost 3 straight, Bryce Young injured. I predicted a Bills win 34-14 and I wish I would’ve put money down. Everything added up to a dominant win today.

Bills reestablish themselves as a top AFC contender with a dominant win over an up & coming team. The seats of McDermott and Beane have cooled down.

I think people are really overlooking the past draft. I think Beane might’ve nailed it. Deone Walker, Hawes, Dorian Strong, Maxwell Hairston seem to be solid picks.

Garbage points 😆
