  1. I get the concern about injuries, but you can't play skeered. Injuries could happen to anyone at anytime in any game. Only when a key player gets injured during one of the very seldom games where a win is not considered critical do people get up in arms about how they should not have been on the field. Their chances of getting hurt are not any worse than during any of the other 15 games already played. Play the starters, play to win, and keep the monster momentum we've been gathering rolling full speed!
  2. Despite my fears of losing a SB expressed earlier, I'm with you - we have a very real chance this of winning it all this year and I'm all in. Go Bills!
  3. We are playing great and of course I just want the wins and joy to continue - but in the back of my mind I'm a little nervous that we are peaking too soon due primarily to a great offense. I think of the 2016 Falcons who had a high powered offense but a defense that needed a couple more key pieces. They ascended to the Super Bowl against the early season odds and looked great in the first half, then got steamrolled in the second when their defense wore down from the constant pummeling. So part of me thinks maybe with one more year to upgrade our run defense we would be unstoppable, and that would be the best time to get to the Super Bowl. While I love the way things are going, my nagging fear is getting to the Super Bowl and losing again. That can negatively impact a team's future and I don't want to see that happen to this team. WHEN this team gets to the Super Bowl, it is imperative that they win on that first trip! Of course the other part of me says GO NOW, as we've got lightning in a bottle and you can't be sure what the future holds. I realize some might say there's no reason to fast forward to a Super Bowl when we would first have to win 3 playoff games in a tough AFC to get there. But ask yourself honestly, outside of the Super Bowl win we all crave (and want to see this team enjoy) if we have to lose this year would you rather have that loss be in one of the playoff games, or in the Super Bowl itself? I'm torn between hope and fear and there is no doubt that is due to past history.
  4. I was thinking the same thing. Does he really have it in him to keep coaching trying to get a New England team up to the top of the AFC - with so many teams ahead of them now? It might be time for him to retire, not quite on top after this year, but close enough to it. If he keeps going and fields a bunch of teams for years that don't make the playoffs his reputation is just going to keep getting more tarnished.
  5. Wow, I feel like I'm dreaming and someone might pinch me and wake me from this wonderment. The Bills are 12-3, firing on all cylinders and steamrolling teams heading into the playoffs??? After all the years suffering through the tough times this amount of good fortune is almost hard to comprehend! But, hey, I think I can find a way to get used to it. GO BILLS - making Buffalo PROUD!!!
  6. Youngster - I was 7. Ron McDole moved into the house 3 doors down from us on Grand Island when I was barely 5. I pointed out how large he was and my Dad said "he plays for the Buffalo Bills". I asked what's that? Been a fan ever since, through thick and thin. To all the true youngsters out there who weren't around for the early 90's runs - Soak it up and enjoy this. You're watching something special here...
  7. Man, what a way to put an exclamation point on a win to grab the AFC East crown! Loving this team. It's ok to dream big this year - these guys are legit!!!
  8. My concern is during that game it seemed like KC was content to just run the ball down our throats. We never really got to see the full offense with the aerial firepower mixed in with the run. It's hard to stop, you can only hope to slow it down. I wouldn't get too presumptuous about our ability to beat them in the playoffs, when they for sure will bring their A game.
  9. They put up a stat that showed the Arizona Cardinals are 0-55-1 in games when down by 14 points or more. Basically saying based on history, no way the Cards come back. Well now they are 1-55-1. When I see those kind of stats shown on the screen it always makes me cringe - like some bad juju just was let out into the universe.
  10. My take on this is, when we talk about a throw being perfect i.e. exactly where it needed to be - on a hail Mary, that is a lucky throw, plain and simple. No way does the QB know when he heaves it that it is going to land in that perfect place where only his guy is going to be able to get it. These type plays are so sensational simply because the odds of that happening are so low. I just don't give too much credit to the QB - he got lucky. The receiver though does deserves credit for staying focused on the ball, jumping at just the right time, and bringing it down in heavy traffic.
  11. I thought the catch by Diggs for the go ahead TD was a miraculous play - we came from behind, got ballsy on an end zone throw instead of settling for a field goal and WON THE GAME! It was not a likely ending, based on the way we'd been playing in the second half, but damn if we didn't snag the win. BUT - shortly thereafter, a bigger miracle, of a much more unlikely kind. Seconds left, the hail mary throw - three defenders around hopkins, yet he comes down with the ball in the end zone. I can't be mad about it - they out miracled us. At least it was non conference - we'll be ok.
  12. So nice to have great play on both sides of the ball. This is the kind of win you can build momentum off of!
  13. REALLY nice to have the game under control all game long. GO BILLS!!
  14. I think Fitz to the Cowboys might make sense for both teams.
  15. We were a top 5 defense last year. Now this. I can understand a little drop-off in performance but the last two games have just been embarrassing. It seems to me like nobody wants to tackle.
  16. what the hell happened? How did our D go from top 3 last year to this? It's getting embarrasing.
  17. https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/2020/10/14/21515316/cowboys-news-jerry-jones-comments-on-dak-prescott-contract-status-andy-dalton-ceedee-lamb A ways down in this blog they talk about 3 free agents the Cowboys should consider signing. DT Marcell Dareus is first on the list. Another similar suggestion was made on a Cincinnati Bengals blog. So some people think he might be a viable option...
  18. Damn, there goes our undefeated season. 😉
  19. Are we going to have Milano, White, and Brown back for KC?
  20. The last one in particular. It was 21-10 and we were driving. With a TD there we'd be at 21-17. Instead all of a sudden the INT and a quick TD by them. 28-10 is a whole different ball game
  21. I hate to admit it, but I heard some fat lady singing...
  22. There's hope IF we get a fairly quick stop.
  23. remember when 3rd and ten used to be an oh crap down?
