  1. We should be rooting for the Chiefs to beat the Steelers on Christmas, thus eliminating the Bills from 1-seed "contention" and allowing us to rest as many players as we want in Week 18. The 14-1 Chiefs are not going to all of a sudden go 0-2 against mediocre teams with the 1 seed on the line. That's not even pot or cocaine thinking, it's LSD. The Chiefs will get the 1-seed and the bye and the best way to combat that is for the Bills to get our own de facto bye in Week 18.
  2. Too satisfied with themselves speech after winning the division.
  3. we have a better QB than the Lions and Ravens. I just can't find myself rooting for those two to get knocked out.
  4. Probably not, especially if you factor in "when close to fully healthy," BUT if we get the #1 seed, we'll have the best chance of any team in this era of winning the Super Bowl entering the playoffs. You could make a separate case that this is the best Allen we've ever had and that Joe Brady's penchant for playing smallball with quick passes and rushing the football buoys Allen's efficiency so that we are better at winning regular season games and thus have a better shot at a #1 seed.
  5. For the cake trick, I for sure would not taste that cake. The black stuff is not chocolate or cake. "Mickey" was not a very complex shape with one big circle and two small circles. (Oz is a rich man can afford better props than typical magicians, but this trick has been around for awhile.) For the 8850 trick, Josh and his center were in on the trick.
  6. Re: Badolbilz and the WRs No mea culpa needed yet. It's definitely fair for him to say to wait for Jan/Feb. What really matters is playoff football, and D-coordinators do make adjustments over the course of the season. Frankly, because it's only been 3 games, I think it's still more likely than not that Badolbilz will end up looking more right than wrong re: the WRs. However, I would say it's past due for Badolbilz to admit that firing Ken Dorsey and putting in Joe Brady was an upgrade, despite Dorsey being a former Cane. It's not waaay past due yet, but the milk is starting to emit a funky smell. (And here we do have at least some small sample playoff data. Under Dorsey, the Bills put up 10 points at home in an embarrassing loss to the Bengals. While Brady lost to the Chiefs, his offense went up and down the field on KC all game but was let down by the defense.)
  7. This is not a WR. With his lack of speed, the Bills are going to convert Coleman into a zone corner, perhaps a good one for McDermott's defense. It's way past time to admit that McDermott and Beane are lovers, and McDermott uses his starfish to mesmerize and control Beane.
  8. I will piggyback off your post for my own unpopular opinion. Sean McDermott is 49 years old, keeps himself in good shape, and should be able to live another 40-45 years or so. Let's give him a full 50 years of remaining life to make it a round number. The Bills winning the Super Bowl will increase the life expectancy of millions of Bills fans by at least one year. That's a conservative estimate. Most people would live an extra 3-5 years, imo. Millions of (collective) years > 50 years. Therefore, Bills fans should mob up and murder Sean McDermott in the street.
  9. Stroud scored 3 points today. I think some folks got drunk on recency bias. 1-0 on my bets so far. I hope to finish 2-1. (Well, I hope the Bills win by 1 or 2 but if that's not possible I'd rather lose my bet and have them win).
  10. The Ravens have been obsessed with their 2019 failure when they were the #1 seed and lost their first playoff game in this round. That obsession will either drive them to (A) put together one of their best performances in this game or (B) choke. I tend to think it'll be (A). Ravens -9.5 is my third favorite bet of this week following TB +6 (previously 6.5) and KC +2.5.
  11. this is the cost of losing to the Jets, Patriots, and Broncos. if we take care of business, maybe we could've rested guys Week 18. additionally, if we don't choke away the game at Philadelphia, maybe we're not even playing in the wild card round. there's usually a price to pay for not taking care of business. but we're here now and we're at home. hopefully we can man up and next-man-up our way to a W.
  12. That's true. I should've added I just don't want the Chiefs to have 2 extra days of rest. They also basically had a bye Week 18.
  13. Sorry if already covered, but with the postponement, the Bills went from a 9-pt favorite to a 10-pt favorite, and the total went from 33 to 37.5 (crossing the key number of 37). It's probably true that the Bills have a better chance of beating the Steelers playing it Monday but given that we were big favorites either way, I'd have liked that extra day of rest to prep the Chiefs.
  14. I mean, the Bills ripped Miami's hearts out last week. KC just put a dead-man-walking out of its misery, is all.
  15. if we get the 2 seed, i'd feel our chances are as good as a typical 2 seed. maybe better because we have done well against the ravens in past seasons but the sample is small. if we get a wildcard, i'd also feel our chances are as good as a typical wildcard, meaning not so good. even during this turnaround, our road performances don't inspire confidence that we could win 3 road games in a row. KC could easily have been a loss, we choked away the Philly game (and look at their recent results), and we almost lost to the pathetic chargers.
