Did you see last year's games vs Cincinnati?
The Bills have lost 3 stars and or studs on defense.
There are really only a few paths to a Bills victory. Sure it could happen but it sure seems more unlikely than likely.
What do you see that's different this year? What makes you think the Bills will win?
Cincy isn’t the same team as last year either…they lost Jessie bates who was a huge piece on defense
SF isn’t much of an offense without Deebo… I don’t think there’s much we can extrapolate out of the bengals win over SF on the defensive side. Our oline is improved from last year also, it’s really delayed blitzes/mixing up responsibilities that has been killing us which I think will get sorted over time. Last year saffold and brown just got dominated pretty much all season long.
we’re better at running the football than last season as well.
We’ve got extra time to prepare also. I think it’s gonna be a coin flip type game

I'm convinced no one carefully watches our coaching. Yes Cincy & Philly are beatable, but not if our coaches trip over each other.
I watch our coaching and there’s plenty of decisions you can second guess for sure, but you could say that about plenty of other top coaches also. We’re acting like a lot of these inconsistency issues are unique to us and it is very much not the case
there is probably a forum post or two or ten on every single teams message board criticizing their coaches right now 😂

So how do you see it now with Allen and Mahome each having 8 INT's on the season but Allen having a whopping 7 more TD's than Mahomes?
Another fact about the two QB's and their teams, they are combined 0-5 in games where their defense gave up more than 20 points. It seems that for this year, you are essentially crediting Mahomes as the better QB simply because he has a better defense and thus one less loss than Allen and the Bills. It is a bit odd because it would seem the QB that has the lesser defense should be credited with more value and success, not less.
I really don’t think win/loss matters a whole lot assuming the team looks like a contender. It’s pretty much a stats only award which has Allen in the thick of it. It’s a flavor of the week thing who the ‘favorite’ is this early in the season and josh/the bills deservedly won’t be the flavor of the week for awhile after blowing that pats game
I thought mahomes had a huge edge with teams like the broncos left on the schedule but he stumbled today. -

Legitimately do not get the people who have such a hard on for Allen but go off I guess😂😂
Lol I really think this is mostly imaginary in the more pessimist fans heads. I don’t see a lot of josh Allen defenders saying he’s perfect and can do no wrong, but I see a lot of people saying ‘why does everyone think josh can do no wrong’ haha
the dude absolutely has flaws but all the mvp candidates have fallen on their face numerous times this season is the point. If we’re going to nitpick josh not showing up for 60 minutes every game, that level of criticism has to be applied to all others also up for the award. none of these guys are perfect, they are all missing reads and not setting protections right occasionally and so on

10 points in 55 minutes is a bad day. The 2 TD's were the late game heroics.
Oh, what's also hilarious is that the defense forced a clutch TO to even GIVE Josh the chance to take the lead. Without the Poyer punch, Josh may have never touched the ball again.
That damn defense letting Josh down lmao.
My point was that the MVP award is a combination of wins and stats. If you have more losses (ie less wins), your chance to win the award goes down.
Football is rarely perfectly linear on offense quarter to quarter…I don’t really know why anyone would completely discount late game touchdowns like that.
it’s pretty often that it takes time for an offense to adapt and they start scoring late and win the game . 25 points is 25 points, that would have beat the patriots by at least 4 in any other game they played this year

"Miraculously steal" lol
I’m convinced no one watches any non bills games all season lol
SF has been struggling for weeks now, cincy beating them doesn’t mean they’re some unbeatable juggernaut.
philly has never really ran away with a game all year

Even tho i’ve been peeved that Miami plays at Kansas City, but NOT at Arrowhead… i am very pleased that the Phins get them off a KC loss. Reid will have their full attention this week and ready.
I’m afraid that now that they lost nick Bolton they’re just not a great team. The defense was anchoring their team this year
I guess someone having to lose between kc and Miami isn’t the end of the world though

That's why you can't discount all the Bills defensive losses. That needs to be acknowledged as part of the dialogue in the Bills struggle.
We’d be 7-1 if we had one of Milano/jones/tre white/healthy von miller all season imo

Dolphins winning was bad for the division.
Jets, Bengals and Titans winning was bad for the wild card.
Steelers, Browns, Colts, and Texans losing was good for the wild card.
Ravens and Jags winning was bad for first seed.
Chiefs losing was good for the first seed.
All-in-all I would say it was a pretty good day for playoff outcomes. Now we root for da Bears and Lions.
The browns loss was the biggest non chiefs loss that happened all day imo. They could be trouble for us

I think it’s too much of a hurdle for the Bills to get the #1 seed. Let’s hope they can get by the Bengals next week. Lose that and it’s back to barely above .500.I wouldn’t bet on it either but it seems a lot more possible than it did a week ago. Chiefs defense looks like it took a huge shot losing nick Bolton
their offense has been shaky most of the year but the defense was brutalizing people

Even with a Chiefs loss, it's doubtful we make a run at the #1 seed.
However, there's still a decent shot at Josh being an MVP candidate, so Mahomes adding 3 turnovers & 0 TD's to his stat line helps the cause 😅
That’s a massive loss for mahomes’ mvp chances…one of the worst defenses came off his schedule and he didn’t do anything good against them statistically.
Idk on the 1 seed I think it’s wiiiide open this year. And even so kc not playing every game at arrowhead would be a welcome change if possible

I appreciate your effort in this thread and you are obviously right if we are talking playoffs/wild card.
But if you think that we are actually much better than we look like now, and that we are about to start winning tough road games (which I do), then we are talking about seeding and everything went wrong in this respect - Dolphins won, Jets won (divisional rival with possible Rodgers comeback), Jags won, Bengals leading, Ravens about to take the lead, and Chiefs... We all know how their game ends.
Why do you care about seeding vs division leaders if we are not that good like you say…should be wildcard teams you are looking at as Miami winning the division would be a foregone conclusion. Don’t really understand what you’re goin for here

Just now, The Wiz said:
They have been rushing but Burrow has been calling it out and throwing screens for easy yards. Again, what good/great QBs have they played so far that can recognize that?
Rushing as in physically trying to get to the qb? Lol the niners pass rush has been nonexistent until the play where I was typing this of course 😂

Not much going for us today. Jets won unbelievably, Fish whooped Pats* and Cincy appears to be back on track.
Dammit!
The teams above us in the standings are pit/cleveland. Our playoff odds are likely to improve today

Fella, it's a joke. Someone upthread declared them unstoppable after the first touchdown. I responded by declaring it a bit premature for those sorts of announcements, with the further assertion that they were currently stoppable because SF had answered. The whole enterprise is dubious . . .
Sarcasm is very hard to detect around these parts 😂. There are probably 5 people saying the same thing you just said in a non sarcastic way right now

Just now, Dr. Who said:
Never met a donut he didn't love. Bengals pretty close to going back to unstoppable, btw.
By this criteria the dolphins were unstoppable against us until we promptly stopped them immediately after lol

So thus far fhe Bills have gotten zero help in other games. Still a couple left to go ..
how is this true? Lol do people not look at the standings? The wildcard teams in front of us were pit(lost),cleveland(losing and not looking great). The teams immediately beneath us are jets(won),houston(lost), cincy(tied) even if cincy wins we still got some help today. I’d take the teams we have no control over losing over the jets losing

I mean it’s pretty likely the guy with the best qb stats is gonna be on the best team but it doesn’t always have to be true. Looking at the previous winners it’s not like they passed guys up because they didn’t have the regular season win total
im not disagreeing with your final paragraph at all I think that has a pretty decent chance of happening though. The defense being not great actually kind of helps him…he’s gonna be in a lot of shootouts.
the chiefs have had a fundamental shift where they’ve been winning mostly with defense so far which has shaken things up
