Josh is off. Oh no no no

the defense is always bad in the playoffs. Why would we bother

The defense is bad. They’ve been bad. Josh needs to be the unquestioned MVP every playoff game

Good thing we didn’t draft a bust like Troy Franklin

They are critical because Herbert is a good QB and no other QB can be good because Josh is great. There’s NOTHING Bills fans hate more than other good QB’s. They hate Goff, they hate Dak, they hate Herbert, they hate Lamar, they hate them all lol. Lmao I don’t even know who you are

QJ is a total bust lol. tell me you don’t watch the NFL without telling me you don’t watch the NFL. “Why do the Raiders suck, they took Jamarcus Russell first overall!”

The ultimate thing I heard from some talking head was that “I don’t want Jameis Winston as the starting QB of MY team, but I want him as the starting QB of a team”

The defense not touching a guy down is so funny haha

Yeah, Josh McDaniels used to know exactly how to shut down Brady. Gase knew exactly how to stymie Peyton.

There was a wide open hitch on the right.

Todd wants more interviews

Did you know that division winners get automatic top 4 seeds regardless of record?

They were underdogs with a worse regular season record. Wut

This defense has quitters all over it.

Donte Business Decision

You HAVE to get Russ out. Jesus

Nothing will change in Steeler land until they commit to finding a QB. Nothing.

It’s the annual “Mike Tomlin gets blown out in the first round and still has no answer at QB going into the offseason” event. You can set your watch to it.

Because your definitions of "solid" and "top-tier" is not based on the reality of the NFL. Do we think this team is riddled with All-Pros that all got snubbed? Of course not. You are correct in one regard. Half the people convincing themselves that Allen is "doing more with less" were also praising the Bills for building a super talented team. It's a total contradiction

It kinda is, right? They drew KC round 1 last year. They lost with a massive QB disadvantage. 2 years ago they drew the Bills round 1. They lost with a massive QB disadvantage and a backup QB starting to boot. Tua has as many wins against Mahomes in the playoffs as Josh does.

There was a point in Buffalo’s history where 3 straight playoff appearances would’ve gotten you the key to the city. I do think it’s kinda funny to think about the dichotomy that Miami is such a failure because they can’t beat Mahomes with Tua or Josh Allen with Skylar Thompson, meanwhile we can’t get out of the divisional round with Josh.

That was my prediction earlier. The Bills taught them that. Their defense was quite bad early in the season until they put Humphrey on Shakir. He went back to outside and they were bad again.

It's proof positive that "winning in the trenches" is another one of those things that's nice to have, but close to irrelevant compared to not having the QB. It's window dressing. The value of the elite QB (which the Dolphins don't have and never will as long as Tua is under center) is why they will not be a contender. The Bills have been a contender the entire time Josh has been elite. It doesn't matter if our DL sucks or our OL sucks.We are still contenders, every year. If Josh was on a team like the Dolphins, who you say can't win in the trenches, they would be contenders, every year.

Meh, I think the build with the trenches thing goes too far. Their defense got actually quite a bit better this season. The big problem is really that Tua has a low ceiling and a low floor, that he needs to be propped up to be just a good QB, and that kind of QB unfortunately doesn’t get your far at building out the rest of a roster. Put it another way, as much as we consider ourselves a far more physical team than Miami, if Tua was our QB for 17 games this season, I think we have a similar record to the Dolphins if not worse. If Josh was the Dolphins QB, i think they are still the 2 seed and run away with the division. Brock Purdy is Tua West for a reason. A physically limited, nice kid who needs to be surrounded by talent to produce in a Shanny system. And when that talent suffers a set back, they turn back into pumpkins. And paying all that talent limits your upside everywhere else on the roster.

The exact place he is the worst fit for him. If BB or the org are serious about winning, you don’t hire him to a team that needs a full reset everywhere including QB. I think BB on the Bears is a better fit and I think that’s not even that good of a fit.
