    Not sure how an AFL championship can help alleviate 4 Superbowl losses in a row

     

     

    Tangential to that, Nuch, are we the only team to every lose 4 deciding championships in a row?

     

    The Dodgers while in Brooklyn are the only team that comes to mind that might have lost three world series in a row, and I am not even sure about that.

     

    EDIT:  New York Giants lost the World series in 1911, 1912 and 1913.

     

    EDIT 2:  Detroit Tigers lost three straight in 1907, 1908 and 1909.

    Followed closely by, “that team over there gets paid to find ways to stop us” 

     

     

    Subsequent to that statement will invariably be, "Hey does anyone have a Toblerone?"

     

    It is two fold, first it gets them off the subject of how badly the team is playing and secondly it confuses people by forcing them  to ask themselves whether they even know what a Toblerone is (we've all *heard* of it), whether they've had one before (please) and whether it is a candy or some sort of European beef stick (it might be both).

     

    Next level chess, people.

     

    Go Bills!

    Sal agreed with several callers on his WGR show this morning that everything just looks difficult for this offense, there is no “easy” button to push—he also noted that he thinks the bills have gone too far in reining back Josh from what has always made him so special—even if the reason, extending his career, is good. 

     

     

    I need a 2-15 New York Giants team, HUDS.

     

    Then I need ownership (just let me dream, OK) to tell the front office and McD that they love you, Beane and McD, but Daboll is back as OC and the only way to get him back was full autonomy...including the first round pick in the draft and that you guys are just going to have to be OK with that.

     

    Also, since I'm in dream land all my hair grows back.

     

    So lush and wavy.

    I was incorrect.  You're not spoiled.  You're like me.  But you gotta admit that the games are way more entertaining and interesting now.  And I don't believe hope is gone for a SB this year.  They can get hot just like the Bengals....


    I agree, and please I meant no disrespect to you and if you took it that way I do apologize. 
     

    Here’s the very weird other thing, Joe…I don’t know how frustrated I am in general as much as I have…how do I put this…relegated myself to the fact that in my lifetime I may not get to see what I always wanted to see from this team as my days are getting shorter and shorter.  I’m closer to the end than I am to the beginning and I can live with this disappointment due to perspective in life and enjoying so many other things I have in it.

    …it’s just having seen this for so long and thinking in recent years “one or two more things and we’re there, or at least we are back” only to realize…maybe we’re not.

     

    Hell, though…it is the journey and not the destination, right?!

     

    Go Bills.

    @dollars 2 donuts, as our go-to in all things Madden, is this accurate?? 🧐🤓

     

    😆

     

    HUDS, side note and only a little related, I haven't played in weeks, but no lie...Gabe drives me crazy in the game.  Seriously, if there is a DB near him...I mean just forget it, even if he has the position on the DB.

    y'all are spoiled.  live thru a few 3-13 seasons and many no Playoff hope years.  Not the case now....


     

    Don’t tell an old man how to make babies. 
     

    I was there…THERE during OJ’s 2000 yard season.

     

    Also anyone who knows anything as a Bills fan knows it’s lightweight arguments to be bringing up 3-13, when many of us have have been in the stands for 2-14 years and 1 win seasons.

     

    The Vikes M.O. lately and in some years past is “really good but not there or can’t get there.”
     

    We are three years removed from just appearing in the AFC Championship, less than a year after only the second home playoff loss in Orchard Park history against a team that we have no answers for, in the dying light of one of the great safety tandems in league history and maybe down to a year with a future hall of famer at WR and let alone an all world QB and we are further away now than we were at the start of this decade with EVERYBODY else in the conference seemingly getting better other than the Pats.

     

    If being spoiled is being around for more than half a century and no Super Bowls, and 30 years since we’ve even been to one, then I’ll wear the crown easily because I want more than what we have right now and are projecting to be as opposed to wearing the title of Seth Settleman…which…well, obviously others have no problem with that moniker.

    Games stat line.  0. 

     

    He needs to sit.  He's a trash second. 

    Tee higgins.  Dominant.  

    Waddle last week.  Dominant. 

    Gabe.  *****. 

     

    Start shakir and make sherfield 3. 


     

    🤣 You silly folks who rip on Gabe are ridiculous. 
     

    You all think that the most important things in a WR are great hands, getting open a lot, many catches in big games, coming back for the ball, fighting and contesting for balls, dependability, and being an actual threat opposite the #1 and not just getting balls because teams don’t care or worry about you when in reality the most important thing is…

     

     

    …boy those are all good things aren’t they? 
     

    We need a 1B. Not a glorified 3 (stop it, he is) and lately not even just a 2 anymore it seems.  
     

    The number 1 offensive priority on this team should be getting someone who would legit challenge for being The Guy at WR or at least not look awkward when The Real The Guy is standing next to him.

  8. If the Commanders, a team we destroyed, beats the pats in New England I may just punch myself in the Billsys as hard as I can until I lose consciousness.

     

    We need a good ole fashion, dirty, nasty, beat down win tonight.This league is witchcraft.

     

    Go Bills

    I will remove my post, Miyagi, as you have already hit the nail, right on the head,  thank you.

    He is tailor made for us.  We needed a true 1 technique, not as good as Daquan, as Jones doesn’t just clog the interior, he penetrates.  Joseph will at least clog up the middle for Oliver and Phillips to hunt.  Interior pressure is key to McD’ s defense.  That and the defensive backs.  Well, we just replenished badly needed bodies in these areas.  In time with snaps Williams will grow at the Wil and Bernard has shown already his progress since year 1.

     

     

    Huzzah, my friend.

     

    My goodness so many on this Board have slandered you through the years with stating you are lazy, dangerous, insane, glutenous, bifurcated, obscene,  sexually deviant, careless, heartless, ruthless, toothless, mirthless, brash, swarthy, condescending, prickly, cantankerous, boisterous,  egotistical, geriatrical, complicated, rude, obnoxious, demeaning, critical, clinical, technical and even mayoral...

     

    ...and where are they all now after such a great post above?

     

    👀

     

    I say bravo to you...bravo.   

     

    😉

     

    BTW, Beane...ya done good, Sir.  You done real, real good the last couple of days.

  11.  

     

    Forgive me for bringing this up, but what if they take us to the woodshed again?  (they did, stop it.  they did)

     

    Whenever anyone was worried about the Chiefs those concerns were usually assuaged by the Bills punching them in the nose the next time around, and usually at their house...because that is the only place those two teams are allowed to play per NFL rules (I kid, I kid.  if your brother works in the NFL scheduling office don't go crying to him).

     

    Sure, just try and get at them the next time around, but if you are one of the best teams in the conference and then there is a team you just can't seem to upend...whoa, Nelly.  🦟*

     

     

     

    (* Honestly, I couldn't think of any reason to use the mosquito emoji and as it was unlikely it would ever get used here,  ever, so what the heck I thought it deserved at least one click and show) 

  12.  

     

    I would like to outscore the living hell out of them, which in my book is putting the foot down on the freaking pedal and not even looking back to see what is going on until we've dropped 49 on them.

     

    ...but that is just me.  I'm all about the speed and the beat down.

     

    I know that is not everyone's cup of tea as many of you around here are, "oh nooo, we gotta balance and be measured and we need to see the spread sheet where everybody gets the ball and we yada-yada-yada."

     

    To each their own, and God bless you all, but I say let Allen be Allen and actually...I know I know, don't get upset...maybe we impose our will on them.

     

    Go Bills.

    Maybe the Damar factor will get these guys pumped. And Dorsey needs to let Josh be Josh again. He let him loose for the first half Thursday, but then started to reel him in during the second half. He can't do that. Take the leash off for all 4 qtrs. 


     

    Yes, and I’ve preached this before…let Josh be Josh.

    If cincy loses today I doubt we are the betting underdog next week.  
     

    lol if we’re heading into week 18 at 10-6, who are the 3 better teams eliminating us from playoff contention at 10-7.  Is anyone making these predictions looking at the standings? 😂 there’s little to no chance we miss the playoffs at 10-7 the way things have shook out so far 

     

     

     My setup is obviously about catching Miami or I wouldn’t have posted the Miami part of it.  However, yeah if we finish at 10-7 and split with Philly and Dallas (let’s say) that means we are 6-6 in the conference.  I really don’t think it is impossible for 3 other teams to be at least 10-7. 
     

    We have the entirety of the central and annoyingly, possibly even the Jets with Wilson and QB, which I believe is one of the signs of the apocalypse.

     

    Btw, this administrations next playoff win on the road will be their first playoff win in the road.

    The more I look at it, the more I'm pretty sure we are going to miss the playoffs.

     

    10-7 might make the wild card (also could miss on a tie breaker). So we have 4 losses left we can take. Here is our remaining schedule:

     

    Tampa - Thursday Night Football is weird and sloppy. Tampa is better than the Pats and the Giants.
    @ Cinci - Bengals had our number last year, they haven't played great so far
    Denver - *Should* be a comfortable win
    Jets - Already beat us once. Jets D has Allen's number.
    @ Philly - 5-1 and Super Bowl team
    @ KC - 5-1 and Super Bowl winners
    Dallas - 4-2 team, very tough defense
    @ Chargers - West coast road trips are rough, team has similar talent to Bills
    Pats - Well, we just lost to them, so we can probably lose to them again
    @ Miami - 5-1 team, we were able to beat them once (with a fully healthy defense though)

     

    Games we should definitely win:
    - Tampa

    - Denver

    Games that are toss ups:
    - Cinci

    - Chargers

    - Jets

    - Pats

    - Miami

    Games where the other team should be favored:

    - Philly

    - KC

    - Dallas

    Not a lot of room for error here! 😬😬😬😬😬


     

    I don’t think Dallas will be favored especially here in Buffalo. They are almost as dicey as us at times.

     

    a big one…Cincy.  We can still pull things out, but really need to rack up some afc wins and we have to pull the upset in Ohio. 
     

    Be 8-3 going in to the more difficult window, split those games, beat NE and be 11-5 headed to Florida.  
     

    Will Miami be no better than 12-4?  Let’s hope so. 
     

    If we head there 10-6…hmm…boy.

    Pats win puts the Bills into first place in the division thanks to the tie breaker.

     

    Pats have a chance if they can corral Hill and Waddle.. The Big key is if they get pressure on Tua like they did Allen they may get a few more sacks and or picks.. 

     

    Should be funny the thread in here with people getting mad at the Pats screwing it up. Lol

    As much as I feel like a filthy wh*re for doing so, I am going to be, yes.

     

    I hate the dolphins THAT much.

     

     

     

    Yes, of course I will root for them to help the Bills.

     

    I'll root for the Dolphins when the play Thanos, not before.

    I’ll say this for the umpteenth time. Next season he’s 35+.  How man mid to late 30’s dudes are there making an impact in this league.  He’s washed and we’re stuck with his boat anchor contract.

     

     

     

    Next year is the last year, PayDay.  It is not ideal if he doesn't come around, but he is still a guy they have to keep an eye and and it is fairly painless to get rid of him after year 3.
