In terms of what's here, yes, I agree that Fitz is better than Barkley and Fromm. For sure. Still, retreading Bills castoffs is not something that needs to happen at all anymore.

My god, I hope that this never happens (again). I liked Fitz. I did. He was like smelling a fart in a room (Losman and Edwards) and spraying a deodorizer -- that made things better in the short term. Still, let's not regress; this team is no longer desperate, even if you were kidding. 🙂

24-7 Bills.

I don't get the thinking (on the part of the Dolphins) about Tua not being considered a close contact, in particular given the article on ESPN several days ago about Fitz being viewed as a mentor, how they're in the same room together, etc. But given that this is the way that the game will play out, hit 'em heavy early on, then literally pull in the rug and bring in the backups. It would be absolutely Billsy for this team to have a COVID breakout in a year where that dark horse Super Bowl contenders thing finally becomes a reality. And this squad has been anything but Billsy for the vast majority of this season.

That would be excellent. Having written that, I cannot believe the depth at the WR position even now, but with Stills it could be absolutely killer.

I would pick "Walk" by Pantera.

I thought you bailed on us, @Virgil! Glad to be able to read this today, and yeah, writing the same thing over and over about a really good team... is a great problem to have. 🙂

I would hope that they go in this direction, because it would be (old) Billsy all the way.

So may he gunsling his way to another 6-10 season there. Excellent!

Honestly, about halfway into this season I thought that he would be fired, and someone here (I forget who) asked me what that would accomplish. The cupboard seems pretty bare over there, so in that light I didn't have an answer. Why are they doing it when they are? I dunno, but I do know that we've seen it here before, in particular with a coach doing an audition towards the end of the season, so I don't want to be overly snarky about it.

The knee injury or Ben being kind of done in general?

Dildon't even go there.

Tua is starting? I want to see the legend in WNY!

"Trade for Wentz, or Bortles still has gas left in the tank. JA just isn't working out." Full disclosure: NFW.

Excellent point! Jeff Tuel, who's been out of the league for how many years now? That Jeff Tuel? HAHA. I will say that the moribund Bills made for a funner board experience, in particular when the QB whisperers came out, but otherwise no. Absolutely not.

Yes, and I've also heard that many others weren't keen to have a person of Newton's "stature" under center this season.

Maybe it's detachable and he hangs it over a mantle?

I needed some time to sit back and think about this one. I think that New England Patriots' fans know what's coming. It's a ***** whose name is Tawmy or Patricia.

If the Bills lose in the first round I will be shocked, like absolutely and completely shocked. I watch the Bills this season and it's like watching a real football team for a change. It's refreshing and more than welcomed by this Bills' fan. I've seen teef on the boards for years. teef is a cakewalk person, and nothing less.

Oh yeah! I forgot about that Panthers squad. So true! And I pretty much discounted everything that happened before the current divisional realignment.

*shrug* At least he's not wearing a dickie.

Well, it's also vacation week (that's my excuse, because I took a week off for the first time in forever).

I was going to start a Festivus: Where I was Wrong About the 2020 Bills (and airing of grievances) thread... at the end of the season. Loving where things are right now and didn't want to jinx it by starting a thread now. Oh, so you're a baby then. 🙂 Seriously, please relax. They're good. Like really, really good. And they've been constantly improving since 2017.

Ah, just saw this. Do you really watch the Bills? Like, at all? Have you seen the team since 2000? If a team went 9-7 it would be like a Moral Victory Super Bowl. If a team went 8-8 or 7-9, it would be like a deep run. I, for one, am stoked that this team will have been in the playoffs 3 out of the last 4 years. STOKED. The squads between 2000-2016 could not do that *****. At all. The team would lose to Steelers' backups. The team would have Kyle Orton under center. The team drafted EJ Manuel. And on and on and on...

And that's what I've been saying in thread. The Bills dickered around, starting in 2000 (and more specifically in 2001) with Rob Johnson and ended up with Bledsoe (holy crap!) and a flaming trash heap leading to, well, basically now, where it's more-than-solid, at the position. Belichick basically phoned it in this year. I don't care if Stidham is bad. Newton is taking steps backwards, and how can you evaluate talent that way? We have experience in that regard, sadly.
