JA is an AFC East killer. Total domination! With JA leading the way, AFCE Champs three years in a row. Go Bills!

We definitely need him and this season has been exhibit A. He's been great out there and has been a stabilizer for the defense. I hope both sides can come to an agreement after the season, bro.

On paper, the only thing that could get out of hand for the Bills on Saturday is Justin Fields’ running. If they contain him, this should be a pretty decisive win. Even if they don’t contain him, it still should be a good win for us. With QB contain being the focus on Saturday, I’m gonna go with one of our linebackers. Look for Matt Milano to have an excellent game. Look for him to have some negative plays and splash plays. Every once in a while he does whiff on tackles, but look for him to tackle well on Saturday holding the Bears QB and RBs at bay. Who ya got? Go Bills! @Success @Motorin'

Congratulations to Poyer on his first pro bowl. The leadership, the INTs, playing banged up but playing great, driving to the Chiefs game to help his team win, etc. Very deserving and a long time coming. Way to go, Po! I know it may not be possible but I hope we can keep him next year. We’re 10-0 with him in the lineup. https://buffalonews.com/sports/bills/four-bills-named-to-pro-bowl-including-first-time-honorees-jordan-poyer-mitch-morse/article_1d53000a-8192-11ed-a264-330b1f10ff83.html

This is one of the best posts I’ve read in a while on this board. Critical thought so you can improve is fine. That said, it’s been crazy to see some of the negativity with an 11-3 team who currently has the #1 seed. Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Go Bills!

Welcome back, Virgil. Good to hear from you! One clarifier. When you say you don’t consider any of the AFC East QBs elite are you including JA on that list or were you just talking about the other AFC East QBs? Go Bills!

Congratulations you guys for picking Knox. 6 catches for 98 yards and the game tying TD. Woohoo. Go Bills!!! PS- I’ll give a shout-out to @Big Turk as well. A few weeks ago in a post, did you call the Dolphins losing three in a row when they were 8-3. If you did, way to go bro. 8-6 to our 11-3!

We’re definitely winning tonight. I just put blue cheese on my eggs. You’re welcome! 🤣

With the weather conditions, the recent dolphins offensive struggles, their banged up players on offense and the way we played them last time even with the starters we had out, I believe our defense will handle their own on Saturday night. So, my thoughts turn to the offense. Last time we had almost 500 yards of offense and a 2/1 TOP. We just couldn’t complete drives and score enough points. If Cole Beasley plays, even just in strategic situations, he can make a big difference. While his stat line might not be jaw dropping, his catches will extend drives and also be a factor in the red zone so we score enough points to reflect our actual offensive production. His presence will also open up opportunities for Diggs, Davis and Knox, which will be a huge factor in his impact. Who ya got? @LyndonvilleBill

Congratulations on picking Groot, fellas. A sack, causing a fumble, etc. He had a good game. Go Bills!

Thankfully they lost but that was a gutsy performance by Mike White. Respect. He got punished out there as he took some tough shots. On the play that he was injured on, he was bent in half. Go Bills!

The Jets are a feisty team. But, the Bills know the stakes and know what time of year it is. They’ll be prepared to hold their lead in the AFCE as well as the #1 seed as they play the Jets. Last year, the Bills defense showed Mike White what a real NFL defense can do against him. I expect the same to happen this week as well. Tre has been playing solid since his return. I expect him to play most of the game (if not all of the game). Look for him to get his first INT of the year as well as lock down his side of the field. He’ll set the tone and be the first on defense to get an INT as Mike White has a multiple INT game. He’ll have Mike White regretting that he ever said he should’ve been a number one pick. Who ya got, Bills Mafia? Go Bills! Thanks for checking in, @Freddie's Dead. I appreciate it, bro.

Thanks for sharing, Big Turk. Yeah, I noticed they weren’t the highest point differential for this year currently. Hopefully they can get that back in the next couple weeks. It’s still very impressive to have the highest point differential by such a wide margin since 2020 compared to every other team. Go Bills!

The Bills point differential since 2020 is crazy insane. It's 444 points. The next closest team is the Chiefs at 307 points. That's a 137 point difference between us and them. The sixth highest team, the Packers, didn't even crack 200 points and the eleventh highest team, the Titans, didn't even crack 100 points. During this 45 game span, our offense has scored more points than any other team at 29.3ppg. Our defense has surrendered the least amount of points than any other team at 19.4 ppg. Talk about excellence and consistency (I realize we've still have had ups and downs but 45 games is a big sample size). Pretty awesome to be #1 in both categories over a 45 game span. Some may not see it because they analyze every game, every quarter, and some even analyze every play. That said when you step back and see the forest from the trees, it’s pretty evident that this excellence and consistency shows how great of a coaching staff and team we have. Enjoy the ride, Mafia. Go Bills! https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/best-point-differential-by-team-since-2020

Against our Bills - 1-2 Against the Bengals - 0-3 Pretty terrible record for the supposed “team to beat” in the AFC. Obviously they’re very good but they’re very beatable too as their record against the Bills and Bengals indicate. Mahomes with a game sealing INT vs the Bills. Kelce with a game changing fumble against the Bengals. What a week: The Jets lose The Dolphins lose against Purdy boy The Chiefs lose their third straight to the Bengals AND most importantly, the Bills are the current #1 seed and control their own destiny again Welcome to December football, Mafia!

We did our part. Go Bengals! Even if it’s 4th and 12 with a minute left in the fourth quarter, take down the Chiefs. And of course, go Niners!

Three down, 15 or so to go. 😜🤣

Congrats on being right about Diggs. Big impact. So glad we have him. He’s a big part of the heart and soul of our team. Go Bills!

Pretty incredible considering the 20 years prior to the past three years. During this stretch, he has 15 TDs to one INT. There’s been two no punt games. There’s been a perfect offensive game. And, they’ve won three in a row at Gillette Stadium. Kyle Brandt said it best when he mentioned that BB has never had a great quarterback to go against in his division and now he does. Crazy that he really hasn’t had an answer for JA in the past three years. Even in the game that the Pats won, it wasn’t BB neutralizing JA it was the weather conditions. People just don’t typically do this to BB. I know a lot of this is Tom Brady related, but did Peyton Manning even have this good of a stretch against BB? Enjoy this three minute video of JA shredding the Pats over the last few games. Go Bills!

The first of three pivotal games that could end up deciding the AFCE. First up, the Pats. JA and Diggs typically show up big in these types of games. So, I'm going with Mr. Patriots killer, Stefon Diggs. I'll say 117 yards and a score or two. Diggs wills this team to victory by having another dominating performance against the Pats. He will not let the Bills start 0-3 in the division. One division foe down, two to go. Who ya got?

Bills at Pats - Let's go, Buffalo! Time to take the division back starting with taking down the P-Men! Chiefs at Bengals - Go Bengals! Get the Chiefs their 3rd loss. We all remember what happened last time we needed the Bengals help. I can't believe it's already been close to five years. The year we started our turnaround. The year before the draft of our franchise QB (just saw on a twitter feed from that day that someone suggested we sign Andy Dalton 🤣). It's the day that the world started to (re)notice the Bills Mafia. The day that the Bills made the playoffs after a 17 year drought and Bills Mafia found out that football miracles still happen. Still one of the best moments of my fandom and I've been a fan since 1988. I'll just leave these here. Go Bills (and for this week, go Bengals)!

While I wish that we had a healthy Tre and Von too, it’s more about the turf we played on than playing on Thanksgiving day.

Against the Cowboys in 2019: 19-24 for 231 yards with a TD (we all remember his never quit fourth down conversion) Against the Saints in 2021: 23-28 for 260 yards with 4 TDs and 2 INTs (dominating win) Against the Lions in 2022: 24-42 for 253 yards with 2 TDs and 1 INT (comeback win) 3-0 record on Thanksgiving, and even more impressive, all three games were on the road. Go Bills!

Yup, the 2-0 record is important. 6-3 to 8-3 just like that is great. To your point, championship teams have “don’t care how it looks” wins at times. During the Patriots dynasty, there were games where the Bills would play the Patriots tough and could’ve won, but the Patriots found a way to win.

One of my thoughts the past couple games has been, “I don’t care how it looks, just get the win”. Some of my reasoning for that has been the injuries. Yes, part of it could be a mid season funk (every team faces stretches), but we’re just so decimated by injuries right now. When you have the injuries we have, style points really don’t mean much. It’s just doing what you can to get the W and the bills have done that the past two games. With all the adversity they’ve faced the past week to come out of that 2-0 is a pretty good feat. Analysis is good, but when you’re so thin at so many key positions, you have to somewhat put down the analysis hat and be thankful for the win. Sometimes expectations are so high, it can be hard to see, but the 2-0 record is something to be proud of. If someone doesn’t think that injuries don’t play a major part of how they look, when relatively healthy, we have shown that not many teams can beat us. When we were healthy, we were either blowing out teams, or beating the likes of the chiefs or ravens on the road. Granted, everybody faces injuries at this time of the year, but we’ve had too many to just brush it off as next man up. At some point, the next man up just isn’t as good. Right when we were getting Jordan Phillips back, we lost Groot. Right when we were getting Milano back, we lost Tremaine. The game we get Tre back at some level, we lose Von and so on. I’m proud of our guys and for taking our record from 6-3 to 8-3 in the last five days with the amount of injuries and other adversities (snow, travel, losing practices, losing a home game, etc.) we’ve faced during this time. As the CBS broadcast mentioned, they’re not robots. They’re humans too, and they can feel the adversity. That said, they pushed through it and won. If we can just somehow find ways to win (no matter how it looks), while we’re still facing these plethora of injuries, we’ll have a great shot come playoff time if we can get relatively healthy again. Onto New England. No matter how it looks, find a way to win, fellas. Lets stack some wins in the AFC East and take back what’s ours. Go Bills!
