  1. This is a silly post. That’s like Miami saying “we need to lure away Aaron Kromer from Buffalo.” Positional coaches can’t make lateral moves unless their team approves it. Most times they block lateral moves. That means to get Smith to Buffalo you’d have to make him defensive coordinator. Sounds like a terrible idea
  2. They are pretty banged up on offense
  3. The common denominator in 2/3 games is Josh Allen playing recklessly and turning the football over. Also, the Bills held the Colts under their season total in points that game and made on the final series to win the game. Sounds like the bias is strong with this one
  4. So many Bills fans were crying that they released Blacksheer because he scored a one yard TD with Carolina.
  5. I think as it stands Cincinnati has something like a 11% chance to make the playoffs. Their win boosted them an extra 5% You play whoever is on the schedule. If you’re Buffalo you can’t be like the fan base worry about potential opponents. Also you have to be careful what you wish for because nothing is a sure thing in the playoffs. There’s countless examples of this. Just gotta let the chips fall where they may
  6. Remember that time McDermott went 9/31 passing against the overrated Houston Texans defense?
  7. Didn’t it seem a lot colder than 40 degrees?
  8. Bills vs. Cardinals from the 1990 season. I was pretty young and this was the first game I ever attended live. My aunt and uncle surprised me with game tickets that week. According to the broadcast it was 40 degrees but it was very windy and we were sitting high in the 300’s. We were absolutely freezing. Maybe it was because it was November and we weren’t dressed for the elements? I remember it snowing a bit too though it doesn’t look like much accumulated on the field. By halftime my feet were frozen and I was finding any excuse to get out of the wind into the corridor to warm up. It didn’t work very well! Anyway the Bills were rolling then. Not much else to remember about this game other than a big Bills win and a backward punt from Rich Camarillo. My aunt and uncle aren’t around anymore but this was a great memory to me.
  9. We’ll see what happens next season. I haven’t watched him as much as you but from what I’ve seen I’m not very impressed.
  10. 🤣 “Out performing Josh Allen’s rookie season?” You know who else outperformed Josh Allen’s first two seasons statically? Players like Zach Wilson and Will Levis. How do I know? Because teams with bad QB’s always bring this up when clinging for hope. In reality it means nothing. Lots of QB’s outpace his production and few end up anywhere near as good as Allen. Of course, there’s a huge difference between the type of prospect Caleb Williams is and what Josh was. Williams was the #1 HS recruit in the country, played at two major college programs, won the Heisman and was the #1 overall pick. He’s played a LOT of football at a high level. Josh’s past is nothing Iike this. It’s been well documented here. Like I said, Williams has physically ability and flashes at times, but he looks horrendous at QB and is making huge errors. It’s not impossible to fix him but it’s not going to be easy. But man he looks like JP Losman at QB. Maybe worse 🤮🤮🤮🤮
  11. He’s had so many chances this season to show something and he’s failed almost every time.
  12. I don’t think they’ll tank but I can’t see them playing motivated. The one guy who’ll want a win is Jeff Ulbrich who is basically a joke of a HC at this time. I’m sure he’d love to put a win va Buffalo on his resume while he’s searching for jobs
  13. According to the NE media Mayo is trying to finish the year strong. While he’s likely safe, he wants to show the Krafts that he’s the right guy to lead because it’s probably been the biggest talking point about the team in the media. The Jets? I don’t think they’ll be tanking but it’s tough to see them get fired up about this game. I’m sure they’ll say the same BS that the Bills coaches/players did during the drought. They’ll want to put good performances on tape, play for each other, play for pride etc. The thing about the Jets if they’ve had so many opportunities to play for SOMETHING and they failed at every one. It will be hard to see them get up for a game that means next to nothing.
  14. Sure that’s part of the problem but at the same time, it’s not like his coach as OC were highly effective. They were horrendous. So is it that big of a loss? The fact that Williams hasn’t shown much progress and instead has regressed should be a big concern. I do think he’s better than what he’s put on tape but it’s going to take a lot of time, effort, and strategy to coach him up. Who knows what he wants. Someone put out to the media that he was “intrigued” by the opportunity but who really knows what he wants?
  15. A lot of players get paid. They still care about their legacy and winning. I woudn’t judge Edmund’s tonight too harshly. He knows his team sucks and is out of the playoffs.
  16. Everything about that drive was a mess between the running of the play clock, the waste of time outs, the play calls, and of course the QB play. Why wouldn’t you just try the 57 yard FG? Considering how the game played out, it’s probably a safer bet than converting 4th and 10
  17. He’s athletic and has a great arm, sure. But his processing and decision making is horrendous tonight. He has no clue where to go with the football. By the end of season 1, the light begins to turn on for rookie QB‘S. Tonight was just brutal. Compare this his performance to Drake Maye last week who had less talent around him and a decent (at best) OC in AVP. No saying that Williams can’t be fixed but he seems to be a broken QB, and it’s going to take a great offensive mind to get him back on track. He is a putrid QB right now
  18. IIRC Caleb Williams made his preseason debut against the Bills. The takes after that game from NFLN and ESPN were all about how “special” Williams was as a QB. It just shows preseason means absolutely nothing. Williams looks lost when it comes to reading defenses and knowing where to go with the ball under pressure
  19. This is the first I’ve done this. Who gives a ***** what uniform the Bills are wearing?
  20. Yeah that would be cool but some fans seems overly superstitious about it. Doesn’t make a different to me
  21. Maybe they can get this guy as the officiant: Marv is up to $500 per video. Love Marv but….man, that’s a lot for a one-minute video
  22. Does anyone really care about uniform combos. Seems there’s a group of fans that are obsessed with what the team’s wearing
  23. No not really. Coleman isn’t that type of player
  24. The thing is, Worthy could have far less production and some Bills fans would be saying the exact same thing as the OP. I’ll say this - Worthy has been a better version of players like Mecole Hardman and Kadarius Toney who Reid always did a great job of using. As far as Keon, he’s played exactly as many had anticipated: Solid Hands Good with Contested Catches Beats zone defenses in intermediate areas Big play potential/YAC Struggles w/ separation Not a natural route runner His biggest knock (speed) hasn’t really been that big of a problem. Despite the slow 40 time, he’s found ways to get open deep as evidence by his 20+ YPC. Again, not sure what the OP was expecting but I think Keon’s flashed enough to be open to the possibly that he could improve to be a solid WR2 It was a very bad penalty. Announcers said it was something about him lifting up shirt to show his stomach. I didn’t get it - just seemed like a routine celebration to me.
