I know teams can look different from one year to the next but this is based off of 2022 opponents. The Dolphins have the second hardest schedule. The Patriots are tied for the third hardest schedule. The Jets are right in front of us as the sixth hardest schedule. https://www.yahoo.com/sports/bills-2023-schedule-7th-hardest-161535339.html

97. Tremaine Edmunds 86. Jordan Poyer 82. Von Miller 71. Matt Milano 18. Stefon Diggs 2. JA https://www.yahoo.com/sports/bills-josh-allen-finishes-no-161528419.html

There’s been some rumblings about him becoming Minnesota Diggs or that we should trade him. I realize there were a couple moments throughout the season that Diggs could’ve handled himself better. That said, like his teammates and coaches have said, Diggs is the ultimate competitor. This article reveals just that. If you’re concerned about Stef read this really good article. Try to read it from the angle of a professional who wants to figure things out so they can win instead of from the angle of someone trying to cause trouble/drama that needs to be traded. Any successful person is going to ask the tough questions so they can get better. I’m not justifying every public emotion he had this past season but I’m so glad we have him. He’s a leader who wants to get better, who wants his team to thrive and who wants to win it all. "It felt like the world was pulling for us and we let them down…it weighs on your emotions a little bit, especially considering Buffalo is that tight knit, family town…you want to win for them.” #14 https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/stefon-diggs-end-of-buffalo-bills-season-just-didn-t-make-any-sense-to-me/article_0ec9119a-a975-11ed-adbe-ff721b179efb.html

10. Ed Oliver Taron Johnson Micah Hyde Boogie Basham DaQuan Jones Tyler Matakevich Matt Milano Groot Tremaine Edmunds 1. Von Miller (we definitely missed him late in the season) https://sports.yahoo.com/pff-bills-10-highest-graded-161523762.html

Eric Moulds was one of my favorite Bills during that era. I’m sure when he watches JA play at the stadium on Sunday, he’ll be wishing he had him at QB when he played instead of the likes of Todd Collins, Rob Johnson, Doug Flutie, Alex Van Pelt, Drew Bledsoe, J.P. Losman and Kelly Holcomb. Where do you think Moulds would rank in Bills and in NFL history if he had JA as his QB? https://www.yahoo.com/sports/eric-moulds-named-legend-game-104520649.html

Just like we were surprised that the Dolphins game was close, I think we'll be surprised that the Bengals game isn't as close as expected. While the Bills won't blowout the Bengals, I don't think it'll be a down to the wire, nail biter either. I could see a 10 point Bills win. Of course, I'll take a one point nail biter as well. As Josh says, all that matters is surviving and moving on during these one week seasons. The impact player that'll help bring the big dub to Buffalo on Sunday is Taron Johnson. He'll be flying around doing his 1/11th to slow down the Bengals passing attack just enough to make a difference. Look for him to have a sack, some nice run stops, a couple key pass break-ups (or 3rd down stops before the marker) and possibly a game sealing INT like he did against the Chiefs. Who ya got, Bills Mafia? Go Bills! @Freddie's Dead, thanks for the encouragement and support, bro!

I know it’s a long shot for the Jags to win but it’d be huge to go into our game with the Bengals knowing we’d host the Jags in the AFC Championship game if we win. Please, Trevor, go 38-0. Stay undefeated on Saturdays and beat the Chiefs! https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/35486630/trevor-lawrence-perfect-saturday-record

“The NFLPA Alan Page Community (APC) Award is the highest honor that the NFLPA can bestow upon a player.” Bring it home, Damar. Go Bills! https://www.buffalobills.com/news/damar-hamlin-named-a-finalist-for-nflpa-alan-page-community-award

Three way tie for first with 12 TDs Daryle Lamonica with the Raiders- 1968-69 Kurt Warner with the Cardinals- 2009-10 Our very own JA - 2021-22 Keep it going Josh. Go Bills!

Congrats on picking either Johnson or Elam, fellas. Oh, and honorable mention goes to @wjag for predicting that Reid Ferguson would compete all long snaps without issue. 🤣😜

Congratulations to, @Big Turk, for the thread he started getting to 100 pages. Pretty impressive for a game week thread. There's more posts in this thread than I have posts in my TBD career. Go JA! Go Bills!!

We all know how well McD and Frazier do against rookie QBs. That continues against Skylar and the Dolphins. Honestly, you could probably pick a few different players on defense to make a big impact because the Dolphins fire power just isn’t there due to all the injuries. I’m going with our defensive warrior, Jordan Poyer. He’ll lock down the backfield and takeaway the deep ball which closes off one of the only chances the Dolphins have at even keeping this remotely competitive. Look for him to have an INT as well as a couple other game changing plays that take away the will of the already punchless Dolphins. Hopefully we can avoid any major injuries as this is as close to a bye week that the Bills could’ve received with having lost the opportunity to get the #1 seed. "There’s only one thing left to do. Just win it all!" - The Shnowman Who ya got? Go Bills!!!

Von Miller told his teammates the season was an album and every game was a new song. In honor of that, buffalobills.com shares the story of the season as an 18 track album called “Don’t Blink”.

Jesus, thank you for answering prayers. Thank you for all the medical staff involved (from the field to the hospital). Thank you for Damar’s awesome recovery so far. Thank you, God!

I got this idea from hearing that the person on SportsCenter prayed as well as some of the in person prayer vigils that have been happening. It can be healing and encouraging for people to see or say prayers or well-wishes. I know there’s some of this going on in the injury thread but this can be a dedicated thread just for prayers or well-wishes. Mods, please do with this thread as you may. God, even with the difficult circumstances, I thank you for another day of life. I start out by asking that you be with Damar. You care about him greatly. Thank you that he’s still alive and in the care of capable people. Give him the strength to keep fighting and wake up. In time, help him to make a full recovery. Please be with his family and friends. Please give them peace during this very difficult time. Also, give them strength to persevere through this long and unknown time. Please be with the doctors, give them wisdom with every decision they have to make during this process. Please encourage them as well. It must be a very difficult time for them. I also pray for all the bills players and coaches What they went through on Monday night was very difficult. Please give them peace and encouragement today. Please give them focus for next steps. Please give them the courage to reach out for more help if they need it. Thank you for hearing our prayers. I love and respect you, God. In Jesus’ name, amen. Please feel free to add your own prayer or well-wishes in this thread.

"Bills lead the NFL with 100 points scored in the final two minutes of a half, 18 more than any other team and nearly double the league average (55 points)." "On drives started at or after the two-minute warning, the Bills have a league-high 40 points, 10 more than any other team and more than double the NFL average (16)." The Bills scored late-first half touchdowns against: Tennessee (1:00 remaining) Baltimore (:09) Pittsburgh (1:02) Kansas City (:16) Minnesota (:28) Cleveland (:14) the second New York Jets game (:26) the second Miami game (:00) AND...FGs against Green Bay (:00) and Detroit (:00) The Bills scored a late-second half touchdowns against: Kansas City (1:04) Chicago (1:02) AND...FGs against Baltimore (:00 to win), Minnesota (:02 to force overtime), Detroit (:02 to win) and the Dolphins (:00 to win). “He (JA) is very calm among the chaos,” offensive line coach Aaron Kromer said. Talk about clutch. Go Bills, keep the #1 seed! https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/calm-among-chaos-how-bills-quarterback-josh-allen-offense-have-excelled-in-end-of-half/article_de6602d8-88a9-11ed-b87d-c3f316ed2c33.html @Logic @LyndonvilleBill @Freddie's Dead @muppy

Huge implications. A victory gets us one giant step towards the #1 seed. At the very least, a victory secures us the #2 seed. Big games call for star players to show up and ball out big time. We’ve seen this player do it several times this year already. He’s been quiet the past couple games but it’s his time again. The big stage is his for the taking. You guessed it, I’m going with Stef Diggs. He’ll go for over 100 yards with a score or two. He’ll make a game changing play that will change the course of the game. He’ll help will his team to victory. I sense about a 10 point win (but if it’s a one point win, awesome). Stef Diggs will be a major reason why. He’ll show the Bengals and the league why he’s one of the best WRs in the game today. Who ya got? Go Bills!

He texted Von Miller the names of the three AFCE QBs he’d face off against each year. Matt Barkley mentioned in the article that “You (Miller) get to play these guys six times a year…Why would you not want to come?” I guess Von lied to us. He came to destroy average/below average AFCE QBs not to play with Josh Allen. 🤣😜🤣 Quite a big difference playing against Z Wilson, Jones and Tua instead of Mahomes, Herbert and R Wilson (when Von was on the Rams and RW was with the Seahawks). After original post was made - Thanks, @Dablitzkrieg. Mods, please feel free to merge.

Good thoughts! That’s what makes our 12-3 record look even better. That, and the competition we’ve played against. 12-3 is very impressive for what we’ve been through from injuries to adversity. Being battle tested like this will be an advantage for our SB run. Go Bills!

“The Bills improved to 7-3 when trailing at any point of a game this season, after going 2-6 last year.” This is a very revealing sign of how much better of a team we are this year over last year. What makes this even more encouraging is that our schedule this year has been much tougher but we still have a five game improvement in the win column when we’ve faced deficits in games this year. It’s also encouraging to see because it shows that we’re battle tested yet coming out victorious once the battle is over. This bodes very well for the playoffs. Even in our three losses, we haven’t been blown out or outclassed. We weren’t able to say that last year. Go Bills! https://www.yahoo.com/news/afc-leading-bills-adapt-overcome-233742882.html

Congrats to all of you for picking either Motor or Cook. They both dominated and we’re a huge part of our blowout win. Merry Christmas and go Bills!

If WGR is airing the game, listen to WGR on the audacy app. Here’s the link - https://www.audacy.com/wgr550 Mad props to your wife for driving so you can watch the game. That’s awesome, bro.
