Meanwhile, in Orchard Park, Beane and McDermott have taken what many deemed to be a “reset” or “transition” year and have the Bills looking like a legitimate Super Bowl contender — and the cap picture just gets better next year. #17 makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE. Go Bills !!! Quote

So, at halftime of the Fish game that wouldn't be considered the first half of the season? If I had to put money on it the NFL will expand to 18 games next season and at the very latest 2026. Makes sense for both the owners and the players because everyone gets more money. Quote

Don't they need to wait for the next CBA? Quote
JerseyBills Posted October 29 Posted October 29 On 10/28/2024 at 1:09 AM, Einstein said: And the Buffalo Bills sit in first place of the AFC East with a 3.5 game lead. The Miami Dolphins are 2-5, led by a small, concussion-prone QB that they just handed a $200+ million contract to three months ago. They also gave 30 year old Jalen Ramsay, who has struggled at times this season, a $72 million dollar contract extension, just one month ago. They also extended their head coach, who many Dolphins want fired, just 2 months ago. These moves cost money, and is undoubtedly part of the reason that they had to let good (and sometimes dirty) players such as Van Ginkel and Christian Wilkins leave. As a result, their defense has given up more points in 7 games than the Bills have given up in 8. The Jets are 2-6 after being media darlings all off-season. They mortgaged their future for a 40 year old Aaron Rodgers, who comes with a large contract and has 10 total TD’s in 9 games played as a Jet. There is a thread on the Jets forum calling for Rodgers to be benched and Tyrod Taylor to start next week. They traded for Davante Adams, presumably at Rodgers request, and he brought with him a $140 Million dollar contract. The Jets are 0-2 since signing him. They fired their head coach and are now fielding calls for them to fire the interim coach. Their offensive coordinator has already been demoted. To make matters worse, their former QB bust is playing quite well for the Vikings. The Patriots, after 2 decades of rule, are on pace to miss the playoffs for the 3rd consecutive season. Their former player and current head coach seems not ready for position. Life is good. Well put. Agreed on everything. The Pats with Maye , surprisingly have the brightest future, he looks like he can be potentially a top 10 QB some day. But this year and probably next, they're no threat. But in the future probably our biggest obstacle Jets and Fins signed terrible contracts , drafted poorly recently, both have alot of talent but zero culture, leadership, bad FO etc.. 5 straight division titles incoming, we might hit double digits but 1 year at a time. We're definitely 1 of a handful of legit SB contenders again and next year have ton of draft capital and cap space, future is so bright, this team is run as good as any 1 Quote
GreggTX Posted October 29 Posted October 29 (edited) Of course, the coaches and players have to stay fixed on the next game on the schedule. As a fan, I'm already looking forward to the postseason matchups with the Chiefs, Ravens and/or Texans. I could also see us gearing up for a game with Pittsburgh or Denver. We need to take the Chiefs down with a convincing win before our Bye Week. Edited October 29 by GreggTX Quote

When people said that the Bills' SB window was closed they forgot that Beane was just reloading. Quote

BullBuchanan Posted October 29 Posted October 29 The season hasn't even started yet. This is all just pre-season for the tournament. Quote
