Is this the best team in the Allen era?

On paper, the 2022 team probably had the most overall roster talent.  

There was a reason everyone was picking us to win the Super Bowl before that season.  For the first few games, they really looked the unbeatable (Rams, Titans).  Starting in Week 3 injuries started tearing us down (Micah Hyde, Von Miller obviously the biggest), and they never reached full potential.  I think the high expectations, the injuries and the Damar Hamlin situation really drained them by season's end.

 

There are pieces of this roster I really like.

This is easily the best RB room that we've had during that period.  Same with O-Line and Tight End.

If we ever get to see Matt Milano and Terrell Bernard on the field together, it would also be the best at that position group.

Christian Benford, Rasul Douglas and Taron Johnson are probably the best combined CB group, although Tre White was the best single player at that position.

 

At the same time, this is easily the weakest Safety duo we've fielded since Sean McDermott became the coach.

Wide Receiver looked good when everyone was playing (for one week).  Outside of that, it's been the worst unit we've given Josh Allen to work with.

The D-Line has the players, but is really playing poorly this season outside of Groot and some splash plays from AJ Epenesa.

Glad some people have noticed the competition level, the teams they have beaten have an average of about 3 wins on the year, nothing to get excited about yet.  If they can even hang with the Lions, I’ll have more optimism.  I expect the back half of this season to be ugly.  3rd or 4th seed is most likely, depending on the health of the Texans.  The rest of the division is so far back, it’ll take a miracle to not win it, but there’s a strong chance they lose at least 3 more games and 4  or 5 wouldn’t shock me.  Unfortunately, I believe we are still just playing for a draft pick.

I think this is a fair and simple question, I immediately thought of 2020 , which is the obvious choice but we didn't have close to the OL and run game back then. 

 

This team just put up 30 without WR1 and CB1 against the top offense last year. 

 

Don't see any reason we can't win out , obstacles happen,  injuries happen but I see the most complete team I've seen in the Allen era imo

 

Just curious of the families thoughts of  why or why not they are or aren't 

 

GO BILLS

HC is the weak link.

 

I’ve said it for years.

 

he’s done a great job with this team, but he’s not the guy to take them to the promised land.

 

maybe with another franchise, but not with the Buffalo Bills.

Let’s talk in 10 years, and see how it went.

 

I’d be more than happy to be wrong, and would gladly admit it.

Best O line I think. Best offensive coordinator and perhaps our best RB’s. Couple that with a very disciplined JA and perhaps this gives the edge…hard to really say

Once we get Cooper, Smoot, Carter, Milano and Benford back and don’t sustain any more injuries we would be better than the 2020 team 

I am not sure abotu the defense.
