Punch Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) The older I get the more I realize the opinions of pundits are all warped by extreme recency bias. I can't enjoy it anymore because they think they see something in "the film" and then need to find a way to retroactively explain why it happened. What makes it even more infuriating is how it's all delivered in a snide, authoritative tone as though they're handing down cherished wisdom of the ages from the gods. Obviously, there is thoughtful and informed analysis but the vast majority of take givers are a waste. Edited January 18, 2023 by Punch 7 9 4 1 Quote

I don't think the media affects how the Bills prepare and view the game, it will be pressure packed for both teams. 6 3 1 1 Quote
Captain_Quint Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 I would rather be the underdog in the media, it seems to help Josh get over the pressure a little bit. 5 1 Quote

Yobogoya! Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 (edited) The Bengals have played more mistake-free football than the Bills by a wide margin, and if the game becomes a shootout the Bengals have two elite weapons (Chase, Higgins) compared to our one (Diggs). Can’t hate on anyone on the outside who picks them in this game, there’s enough objective reasons to justify it. 🤷♂️ Edited January 19, 2023 by Yobogoya! 3 6 Quote
Success Posted January 18, 2023 Posted January 18, 2023 Every narrative I read now is "bumbling Allen." The Bills COULD win, but our many turnovers will result in a loss. Give me a break. He was perfect in the postseason last year. The team got all of their mistakes out of the way against Miami. I'm not usually one to be over-confident, but I don't think this one is particularly close, especially w/ Cincy's O-line situation. We're going to look like we did for some of those games in September & October. 3 Quote
