    There was some narrative early in the season that Allen was surrounded by bums. Josh is our best player and a top 3 qb but can we finally argee that there is legit good talent on this offense? 
     

    - one of the most improved (and honestly one of the best o lines in the nfl)

    - a top 5 receiver 

    - a top 5 rb who is breaking out big time 

    - a 1st round TE who is emerging as one of the best receiving TEs in the nfl 

     

     

    obviously, Allen is the star but can we finally admit this is a really good group around him? How many groups are better? SF, Philly, Miami, and maybe Detroit? 

    This is almost as bad as the post I saw yesterday , proclaiming La Porta the best TE in the league and OROY.

    Let him get back up to speed and then be active against MIA if everything is looking good. No need to thrust him back into the trenches against LAC or NE. 

    The only way either of those teams can beat us is running the ball, they both have good backs, I would not take them lightly.   The Bills did a nice job against Pollard, but that said, they got 4 extra offensive possessions from Dallas stupidity (penalties and not challenging the Diggs fumble) and put them in a hole so a balanced attack was out the window. 
     

    Let’s not forget who the Bills have lost to this year, there are NO sure things.  If they lose to a Stick and knock themselves out of the playoffs, I’ll be forced to quit watching football forever.

    You’re not wrong…  But players tend to come back much more slowly from ACL’s than pecs.

     

    For example, TJ Watt had 10 tackles, 2 QB hits and an INT in his first two games back from a pec tear last year.

     

    Milano had a sack, 5 tackles, 1 TFL, and 3 QB hits in his first two games back after he came back from his pec tear in 2020.

     

    Because of the position he plays and the leverage he needs, this may be different for D Jones. But in general, we have seen players hit the ground running after a pec return.


    I’m optimistic he can come back and play at a high level.  Comparing what a NT has to do vs what a LB does is not similar.  Watt and Milano can make an impact simply by being in the right place at the right time, Jones has to maul his was past a 300+lb man EVERY snap, hand fighting the entire time.  Full strength in your limbs is vastly more important.   It sure would be great to have him back and making an impact going into the playoffs.

    That’s a lotta beef in the middle.  Having them rotate all game will let Oliver keep feasting.  It would be a really nice boost for the final stretch here.  

    I think that’s more realistic, we can’t forget where Joseph came from.  Relying on him to last the whole season at a high level is a risk at best, I’d rather have him play at 100% for 50% of his current snaps than 75% on any of them, assuming Jones is ready to go 100% for his reps of course.

  5. Personally, I’m glad it was only a one year deal and he was NOT brought in as a replacement to Poyer of Hyde.  That said, he probably will be out there a lot for the rest of the year and that kinda sucks.   He’s still an upgrade to what was there last year, but that’s not saying a lot.

    They have the Steelers, Chiefs and Browns left.  I can't see them losing to Pittsburgh. I can't see them beating Kansas City. And Cleveland I think could go either way. 

     

    Of course the wacky way this season has gone they could go 0-3 or 3-0 these last 3 weeks. 1-2 over the last 3 seems most plausible to me.

    TJ Watt may end the fun of Browning, who knows.

    As it sits today before the Sunday games are played my feeling is the clearest path is through the division. Win out and I think it's ours. Even a loss today and I think we win it. I just don't see Miami beating Dallas and Baltimore, and they may have problems winning today against the Jets. As much as I dislike Tyreek Hill, him being gimpy really increased our odds. On the surface, it seems the annual late season Miami Meltdown is in full swing.

     

    The Wild Card, while possible is a pure crap shoot at this point both the amount we lost to AFC teams and the fact that Cincinnati and Denver are still in it and hold those head to head tie breakers.

    I believe Cincy will fall off, WRs bailed them out on 2 should be picks today, that won’t keep happening.

  8. Surprised they ditched the GM, that roster is good.  The coaching is awful. 
     

    too bad they did it before playing the Bills, that’s one guy I thought McD could put coach in the last 5 minutes of a game.

    Belichik to LAC is so obvious and might be the perfect offseason match in years.

     

    If it does happen the Chargers will be an instant SB contender next year.

    Yep.. scary as hell.  Only good thing, it will be 2 games for KC to actually have to win instead of being given.  Hopefully the story line in 2027 reads something like, “KC has lost to Bellicheck 7 times in a row, going back to week 15 of 2023”.

    He's 30 years old and on the tail end of his career.  He's definitely slowed down and anyone that says otherwise is kidding themselves. Because of his contract the bills are stuck with him for at least one more year . 2025 is going to look a lot different with no Gabe, diggs, Miller , or knox. Tons of cap space will be opened up. The bills could be a juggernaut in 2025 if beane plays his cards right. 

    I’d eat the turd sandwich for 2024 and cut the fat, clear the old boys and start a new.  The only remaining questionable contracts would be Diggs and Knox if it were my show.   Won’t happen, but it’s time to move on from Miller, Morse, Hyde, Poyer, White, Gabe, unfortunately it will mean no room for AJE or Floyd, wouldn’t be shocked if we can’t bring Jones back either, but something has to give. There is entirely too much money wasted and you are stuck working around it, time to rip the bandaid.

    I don't know if he's done, but they need to toss those WR Screens to him out of the playbook.  Diggs is an elite route runner.  He's not a speed guy.  Stop wasting him and downs on those stupid play calls.

    Those need to go to Shakir and we need to start using that guy more, he could be our “Debo-Light”.

    They are trying to prepare and see what it will be like when they get the European teams & the Mexican, and South American teams just how much they can saturate the American public with football when they get up to like 40 teams .

     

    More is always better so push it as much as possible right to the limit Roger ...

    Product is already diluted, any more and it’ll be the NBA.  Seems to be what they want though.

    I'd love the idea if both of the games were good; or maybe even if just one of them was good.

    Although I do think they should offset the kickoffs by about 20min so you could fully enjoy the end of both.

    Yeah, I’d say they need to be offset by at least an hour.  This week has not been the scheduler’s finest job.

    You’re going to change your mind when the Titans give Miami all they can handle.

    Wouldn’t be shocked if the Titans win, honestly.  They have the right type of team to give Miami trouble.

    If the Bills win out then they have a realistic shot at winning the division (fish would need to lose to Dallas and Balt, and they struggle mightily against good teams).  If they lose one game they probably miss completely.  Crazy.

    I said it early on this year and got chastised for it, but this team could easily miss the playoffs and a large part would be the losses down the stretch.  Here we are in the beginning of the tough stretch, sitting 1-1 and because of horrid play early, they can’t lose anymore.   The McHandicap effect has lost a few games this year, I can’t help but believe it will lose us more.   Had it not been for Toney being a complete bone head last night, this season is over already. 
     

     

    Gotta go win ‘em all and be ready to keep rolling in the playoffs…. Or hope the boys did well on Black Friday, cause they are going to need a nice TV to watch the playoffs on.
