Sabres 2025

The entire play is on X showing Allen release the ball. Ian Hartitz @Ihartitz. It isn't really worth arguing about. It is obviously an overthrow. No big deal. Allen had some pressure on him but he clearly released it after Kincaid was open.

Actually you don't understand how NFL plays work. Certain plays the QB is throwing to a spot, but this was just a classic overthrow. It happens. The gif cuts out when Allen releases the ball. I can assure you Allen took responsibility for that incompletion.

Not really. That was just a bad throw by Allen. It happens. He let the ball go long after Kincaid was open.

The problem is they might not meet in the playoffs. We lose this game and drop a game to the Lions and we could be staring at the #4 seed and having to host the Ravens or Steelers in the opening round. I much rather be the #1 (bye) #2 or #3 and hosting a team like the Broncos or warm weather team like the Chargers.

Not good. Hate giving Chiefs the feeling of being disrespected. They are very good at that. Honestly prefer Bills being underdog. My guess is the Bills will be favored by even more than 1 at kickoff. Maybe 2.5-3

I am not saying they aren't an issue, but they are not better teams than the Bills. The Chiefs are not playing well and the Ravens have dropped games against the Raiders and Cleveland. They can't stop the pass. We had no receivers the first time we played them. Shakir was hurt and Cooper wasn't on the roster. The Lions appear to just be better than us and everyone else in the league. If they beat up on the Texans in Texas tonight they are a legit heavy favorite to win it all.

I get the feeling we are going to be in some close games over the next 5 weeks. Should know a lot about the Bills and Tyler Bass by mid December.

KC and Baltimore are very beatable. KC has looked awful at times and the Ravens can't stop the pass. I won't be shocked if they don't win their division and get bounced in the opening round. Can the Bills beat Detroit in a Super Bowl? They will need some turnovers and some luck. Not likely, but not impossible.

Definitely worried the Lions are going to "Raven" the Bills. These physical teams are just a terrible matchup for the small Bills defense. The Ravens secondary makes them beatable though, but the Lions appear to have no flaws right now.

I agree. I think we can go 3-1 if we beat the Chiefs. I am worried about losing to the Chiefs and then dropping 3 out of 4. The Chiefs, Niners, and Lions are going to make the Bills run defense work. Is the McDermott defensive scheme capable of beating physical teams? I don't know.

I think he will beat some of those teams and is going to take this team to the Super Bowl but I also think he is gone if they have an early exit in the playoffs, especially if they lose every single game this year to the elite teams. The fans won't tolerate another early exit.

He won't be fired because people weren't buying PSL's, he would be fired because the PSL owners opinion would be correct. You can't waste the talent of a generational QB like Josh Allen because your coach is not capable of beating good teams with good coaches. I actually have faith in McDermott and think he will win a Super Bowl for the Bills. I worry a little about the Lions, but I think the Bills are going to the Super Bowl this year.

McDermott is gone if they lose to all the good teams like the Ravens, Texans, Chiefs, Niners, and Lions and only beat up on bad teams. The PSL owners will push him out if they don't have any faith in him getting the team to the Super Bowl. This is the year they have all the leverage over the owner.

With the team trying to sell PSL's and with a move to the new stadium in 2026/27 season, the season ticket holders will definitely have a lot of leverage with respect to McDermott. If he loses on Sunday then Pegula will have to really start thinking about whether he can keep McDermott if they can't get past the Chiefs in the playoffs. The Lions game also becomes an issue if he loses to KC. Can McDermott survive if he only beats non-playoff teams but can't be the good teams like the Ravens, Texans, Chiefs, and Lions? I don't know.

Win or lose next week really shouldn't matter in terms of McDermott's future. If they lose to the Chiefs in the playoffs the owners have to make a very difficult decision to make, especially if the season tickets holders demand a change.
