Sry if I should know this - is there a scenario where all other 3 AFC East teams don't make the playoffs?

The "opposing fan coming in peace to just have intelligent football conversation" invariably devolves into a series of patronizing "no this is why you're wrong" lectures. For the life of me I don't understand why fans of other teams visit (or live on) an opponent's board. Never in my internet life have I ever had even the urge to post on another team's site. I would always lbe fine without opposing fans posting on this board - trolls, "intelligent football talkers", or otherwise. It's like if you were at a Bills watch party with all hyped up Bills fans and there's one random guy with an opposing team jersey walking around fansplaining Yada Yada about his team. Even if you are cordial, read the room - no one wants you here

Super Dupers?

This is a lazy journo narrative. One of the "risky" throws for int that game was a 5 yd check down where the wind caught the ball. We've seen some "what was he thinking?" throws down this stretch, but without knowing the full context of what happened on those plays (receiver running wrong route etc) - plus so many bad weather games and at least early on who knows how many throws were affected by his elbow - can't just write it off to recklessness. It's easy for the media to roll out the 'reckless sugar-high Josh' narrative by just looking at int stats with no analysis into the cause for each one. I actually think Josh has mostly moved past the 'sugar-high' issues and this year it has been different factors affecting ints.

I wouldn't be surprised if the Bills make the SB that Hyde gets activated, Stamkos-like, just to appear in the game. I don't think that they are counting on him walking in the first playoff game to be a full time starter for the playoffs.

Lol - he fails to mention football stadium sitters

Wouldn't it have been easier to just swap two bags of pucks?

I've said before with previous clips of that guy that when he touches that thing he should wear white gloves like the Stanley cup curator dude

I for one welcome our simulation overlords

Grounds for divorce?

McDaniels is an arrogant cheating POS. His failure brings me happiness

Black Hole is in Vegas now

Except he wasn't blocking for an offensive teammate - he was essentially playing defense at the time, and as a defender went at the knees of a player on the team with the ball, trailing the play by 10 yds and just running along. When does that ever happen in football? There is no reasonable justification for it. BTW looks like fine is $11,139. As Florio points out here - below the waist after change of posession is illegal regardless. And they get into how it is an unnecessary dirty play (go as far as to say it was a "punk-ass move") https://www.nbcsports.com/video/patriots-mac-jones-be-fined-11139-low-block-bengals-eli-apple

Yes but at the time Bellicheat was saying ('Pro Bowl' QB ) Mac Jones had made 'dramatic improvement' and Zach Wilson was newly 'beefy' and 'thick'

It's kind of jarring to see the numbers for Barkley - passed up 842K to be here vs active roster on another team, that's nothing to sneeze at

https://theathletic.com/4015953/2022/12/27/bills-quarterback-room-josh-allen-case-keenum-matt-barkley/ Recent article in the Athletic is mostly a feel-good "this is the best QB room I've ever been in" piece - but includes this tidbit regarding the recruiting of Von Not sure that is something Josh necessarily wanted out there As mentioned - the rest of it is mostly about how well the three QB's get along on and off the field, the great team chemistry etc. Some other highlights. Barkley signing: Also mentions that when Beane called Josh (who happened to be golfing with Barkley at the time) to ask him to help recruit Von by calling him, Josh asked for a favor in return: to sign Barkley (Beane responded OK I'll see what I can do) List of teams Barkley and Keenum have played for Best friends Jockstraps: Edit: Note that this was the reason why guys are saying "jockstrap" in the Mic'd up of Josh from the GB game

He's like a cheating douchebag cockroach

Stupid trash cards better not blow this

Love it

When I first saw it I was thinking that was borderline throwing a block low like that - then I realized he was on DEFENSE at the time. There is a not so fine line between fiery competitor and entitled whiny crying dirty POS - he thinks he's the former but by this point the players in the league knows he's the latter. I can imagine there's a whole bunch of players who wouldn't mind rocking his world at this point.

They should have put out an APB for fans on snowmobiles to come out and shovel the players out for tix to the last game

Drinking Bud Light - does Barstool River North not carry Blue Light 😜 That's pretty cool the bar did that - another bonding activity for the team - together drinking in a bar that's exclusively yours on Christmas eve

I actually think Knox might have been told to get down before the EZ if he had the first - if you look at the play it almost looks like he tries to slide as soon as he catches it - but he was already in the EZ.

But he's fiery!
