This team was 7-6 in 2021 playing trash QBs and teams.

 

 

10-7, 9-8, 11-6, 12-5 don’t really care.  
 

Just get in.  Get hot and healthy at the right time.  
 

The best and healthiest team in the worst conference I’ve seen in decades beat Daniel Jones and then the 49ers 4th QB and got to the SB.  
 

The Chiefs also got healthy and played a young Jags team then a team that decided to talk trash about them.  Things broke right for those teams.    
 

 

Super Bowls aren’t won in September.  We need things to break our way in December and January.   It’s going to be a grind.  

 

7-6 in 2021 was a massive fluke filled with screwjobs and things beyond our control.  Of those 6 losses only 2 were legitimate straight up losses in the somewhat flukey week 1 against Steelers and the beating from Indy.  The other 4 were...

- Titans aided by multiple uncalled blatant holds on Henry's long TD run, and Josh's foot slipping on crap turf.

- Loss to Jags which I consider the worst officiated game that nobody talks about, because it wasn't a high profile game.

- Windstorm game against Patriots completely nerfing our passing offense vs the more run focused Pats.

- Buccs DBs getting away with committing war crimes against Diggs in a game that had no business making it to OT.

 

And those all came after a 4 game stretch where we went 156-41 point differential with 2 shutouts and a dominant road win in KC.

The Dolphins and Jets both beat us once each last year.  They each got significantly better in the offseason.  We did not.  That's why people are a little less optimistic about this season than we were about the last couple of seasons.  Our road to a division title isn't going to be as easy as it has been recently.

 

Now, the Bills are arguably still the best team in the division.  We certainly have the best QB, and that matters tremendously.  When I say that the Bills did not get better in the offseason while the Jets and Dolphins did, we already had a SB-caliber roster and there wasn't a lot of scope for us to do anything but tread water.  The other two teams had a lot more room for improvement than we did.  We haven't slipped -- our rivals have simply improved.

 

I don't think you can look at the Bills and Dolphins and seriously argue that one team is clearly better than the other.  Our rosters are different, but both of these teams would ordinarily be favored to win most divisions and make a deep playoff run.  The Jets are a notch behind IMO, but they could also be really good if Rodgers performs better than I expect him to.  It's going to be a tough division to win, the WC race is going to be murderous in the AFC, and there's no reason to expect any favorable matchups in the playoffs.  We have a tougher climb this year than we did last year.  

its also HOW we looked. THey looked like crap/fell apart against MIA in playoffs against skylar thompson. they LOST to ZACH WILSON. i like florios analogy of a jenga tower and his factual post about a harder schedule is real. other than that its clickbait

Glaring hole at MLB

 

Concerns at RT that could go downhill quick

 

Tough schedule and Conference 

Diggs wants out of Buffalo

 

Josh Allen's body will implode if he does one more hurdle

 

Our only remaining backup QB is just Allen's drinking buddy and never played QB

 

The backup assistant strength and conditioning coach is calling defensive plays

 

God hates the Bills

 

Turns out, Edmunds was good

That's great, GUNS, but honestly, you seem to be putting a lot of pressure on yourself.

 

Rest assured there is a Board Member here willing to take those tickets off your hands, for full price.  A balding * (knocks out only 15% of the Members) , yet extremely handsome (takes out about 65% at TSW), with a huge heart that he wears on his sleeve (OK, 80% or so in) who is ready and waiting, in the pinch!

 

Please note, although I will try and be in attendance for the MT run, I will not be eating.  Brother, I feel too good lately.  Within 5 lbs of the lightest I've been in 8 years and I feel like a kid again.  Plus I'm seeing my doctor about a week later so I want to keep it going.

 

 

(* Who am I kidding...bald)

 

Go Bills!

 

 

Did I mention my sister pulled in a favor as she’s been with the Sabres for 20 years.  I can’t tell you who, but there is an admin person for the Bills who scored us 45 yard line lower deck normally $650 per ticket for $185.  My boys nephews and cousins are stoked.
