so what you're saying is it will be a competitive game but the bills still win. I can take that. division games as all know can be close and competitive regardless of records. although, this game I don't see ever being close. this train is running down the track collecting wins along the way to the promiseland. they're not done yet.

 

hang on for the ride!

its amazing how we were still competitive against the pats all those black cloud years.  

we usually had a pretty good defense and some star players just no qb and no name coaching.   

 

i would think this would play out diff but u never know...

im buckled in and ready

Wow we are starting to scrape the barrel. Never a Bills legend. Had 2 good years total as a pro. 

 

I was so upset we didn't resign him. He was pretty awesome bro

Weird about Ankou. I thought whenever he played he was pretty effective

I would have kept him over someone like Jefferson 

It feels like Ankou has been cut or re-signed 30 times over the last couple of years

Well I guess our WR room somehow got quietly better...

Didn't know this and it's extremely impressive:
 

The Buffalo Bills have committed just seven turnovers through 14 games. The NFL record for a full season is eight by the 2019 New Orleans Saints. The Bills’ franchise single-season record is 12 by the Tyrod Taylor-quarterbacked 2016 team.

 

With the soft schedule remaining there's a good chance we beat or tie the Bills team record. And a tie would be better in a 17-game season.

It's a metric and the way I view metrics is that they can be useful at least in a directional sense, with that said, look at what these ratings show for KC.  I've seen enough KC games to believe these metrics have no basis in reality when it comes to KC and pass protection.

 

Fair enough but you could also look at it straight up and see that they have allowed 45 sacks on the season and Maye is being sacked on almost 9% of his dropbacks which is approaching Rob Johnson territory.

We were like 3 wins and 31 losses….or something like that.

 

How is that even remotely competitive? Or were you being sarcastic?

Maybe he meant moral victories?

not competitive in a winning way...   but if u look at the scores of those games.  which im guessing we played one game a year that was close and 

probably got blown out in the next.    you would have thought as bad as we were and as good as the pats where that they would have

just been complete blow out games but a lot them werent.    

 

usually late 3rd qtr ne started to show some dominance and buffalo started to fall apart but a lot of the games were not just 

straight up blowouts you would expect

So we are bringing in a guy who got out of Buffalo as fast as he possibly could? Was nobody else available?

Most sports you actually play the sport to practice and get better.  Football is very unique in that the actual game is played very infrequently.

That's should be a qualification. Two contracts with Buffalo, minimum. Or something really amazing in the one.

 

Antoine Winfield was a MUCH better Bill and I wouldn't have him in either.
