The Pats should give him 5/$200M right now.

Anyone criticizing any of our players for anything today should be laughed at and banned. We achieved exactly what we hoped to: stayed healthy. Bonus points for letting NE knock themselves out of the #1 overall pick. On to the Playoffs!

Better chuck that ball right into the stands on the 2pt

This is Allen's 105th consecutive regular season start (14th all time). Next season he can catch Joe Ferguson (107), Tom Brady (110), Tom Brady (111), Tom Brady (112), and Ron Jaworski (116).

Packers fans on reddit all bitchy that this shouldnt count as a start for Allen and keep his streak alive. As if Favre has never done anything shady when it comes to setting records or keeping streaks. Or stealing funds from hungry children.

Not sure, but lots of our guys have looked offensive.

Worked for Washington with RG3 and Cousins! I'm as big a McD critic as anyone, but there is nothing to read into here. This is like the 2nd half of the 2nd preseason game. Doesnt mean or represent anything real.

There doesnt seem to be anyone better in the next draft. If nothing else they can maybe trade out and load up on picks. But as it looks now, they'll knock themselves out of the #1 spot. Which is great.

Wait, are people actually taking this game seriously? Cause the Bills arent. The goal today is to keep our starters healthy. Bonus if we can hand NE a win and knock them out of the #1 spot.

Dont think so since Cleveland is now 3-14. 3-13-1 would be considered a better record.

Makes it all the more sweeter.

The team will likely pay it out if something like that happens. Well-run teams usually do.

Adds more fuel to the talk that he has been vying for the Patriots job.

Just updated his twitter pfp

Love it, but the 5th is Beane's sweet spot so I wouldnt be surprised if we stayed put. (and maybe even traded back form the 4th just so he can pick up an extra 5th rounder )

You're making a lot of hypotheticals and strawmen go your way in this. I never said Whaley should have drafted Mahomes. If anything, I say we should have fired Whaley the same day as Rex, and brought in both McD and Beane that January. I understand why they didnt, but plenty of teams reset their FO in January and are able to make a draft in May. Plus, it's been reported that Pegula is the one who pushed for Mahomes, so not sure the GM stays even if we do make that pick. That was simply McD protecting his incoming GM from being saddled with someone else's pick. Which is fair. But the GM should have been in place for that draft. Also, the difference so far is 3 Super Bowl wins, 4 appearances, and multiple playoff wins over the Bills. Which they likely dont do with Watson, or Rosen in 18. Or maybe they get Allen the next year and go on to win the 2021 Super Bowl. Who knows? But I'm not sure I trust the judgement of anyone who tries to argue against the point that the Chiefs would not be the current dynasty Chiefs if they werent allowed to move up and draft Mahomes.

It has played out alright for the Bills, but until we get past the Chiefs and win our Championship it will always be questionable.

Yeah, not sure it makes the Bills much better than they are now, but it does make the Chiefs worse and it's almost addition by subtraction (for us anyways).

Oh for sure. I'd even argue that was a worse way to handle it than if the Jets were to hire Vrabel and then a GM. At least the Jets know they have to replace both and will do so quickly. Stringing it along and keeping Whaley was a bad move. I understand they didnt want to lose all the scouting work, but we essentially lost out on Mahomes and directly created our biggest hurdle to a Championship because we couldnt take a QB until we had a new GM.

Pretty much. Whichever position (HC or GM) gets hired first obviously influences who gets hired into the other spot. You want guys who want to work together.

What crazy team would do that?!?

Rodgers is as good as gone. He will be cut/released or retire. Which sucks for us Bills fans as it is removing one poison piece. And if Woody goes back to England, and Chris Johnson takes over again, and brings in Vrabel, it would all be a huge step forward for the Jets.

Very good coach who I even want in Buffalo (if we pull a classic McD playoff exit). This would be very a very un-Jets move, so hoping it doesnt happen. The best thing that could happen for that team would be to hire Vrabel and Woody to go away on another diplomat assignment. Hoping it doesnt happen. Same but opposite of McDermott. He was able to actively coach and gameplan a team lead by... Ryan Tannehill at QB... to the #1 seed and a regular top team. He pulled a Belichick ON Belichick, using the rules of the game against him. He is a master of situational football. His teams got beat in the playoffs because Tannehill couldnt keep up with real talent. Where as the Bills get beat in the playoffs even with the best QB/Player in the league, because our coaching cant keep up with playoff coaching.

2019 me would be super excited for this thread. 2025 me doesnt give a rats ass.

LOL
