I suspect we benefited from having the best starting field position in football last year.

Hey, I love the guy, but seriously? I think we get caught up and laud him for just being a decent guy.

Only point I'll make is our "average defense" DID provide the offense with literally the best starting field position in football last year: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2024/#drives::9 Can the turnovers be repeated? Probably not, but it's worth remembering that the terrific year the offense had benefited, in part, from having the shortest field in football.

Why wouldn't anyone want to come to Buffalo to play. The weather may be cold but at least the taxes are high!

"in their city"...

I don't blame them either, but the numbers being thrown around the NFL and pro sports in general, while tax payers foot part of the bill for stadiums, seems kinda insane

Hey, some billionaire's millionaires have to win! Maybe someday it will be our guy's lol

So average drive start is a ridiculous stat? Ok, how about this. The Bill's defense was third in the entire league in take-aways with 32. Now is some of that luck? Absolutely. Did Allen and the offense benefit A TON from it? You bet your a$$ they did!

The Bills literally had the best starting drive position in the entire league this year https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2024/#drives::9 I suspect that helped Allen and the offense quite a bit!

Something else to keep in mind, Allen and the offense REALLY benefited from the defense taking the ball away this year. The Bills had the best starting drive position in the league in 2024: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/years/2024/#drives::9

Still an awful lot of free space in that super bowl trophy cabinet...

Honestly, this all sounds just about right to me. How much of the success of Beane/McDermott is just getting lucky with Allen?

What in the world? Why wouldn't he be in it for the money? Those guys are getting the $#%# beat out of them and likely have life-long effects from playing. Get paid, that's what we'd all do. Who cares what billionaire is paying your salary. It's not like these guys grew up in Buffalo or something. My goodness

I know the idea that Josh is picking players is partly a jest, but my goodness, the QB needs to stick to playing QB.

Makes NO difference what you think "Pal", it's illegal. Laws/rules exist to protect people from themselves. Deal with it
