LOL. Listening to Jets fans call in and cry about the Jets to WFAN is going to be so enjoyable.

It was just the Jets and I don't know why but I'm still giddy about this win this morning.  Got the highlights in my feed if you all want to rewatched condensed like I did already.

I would imagine the Bills will treat this game as a glorified meaningless preseason game which is what it is. Allen probably will watch this game in street clothes. Anyone hurting won't play. It will 2nd and 3rd stringers against the Pats starters. NE will probably win, and they should be favorite in the game as well.

Not so fast. NE is toying with the top pick in the draft. Their fans will be pissed if they blow it by winning a meaningless Week 18 game to the Bills second stringers.

So the Jets spent $112,500,000 for Aaron Rodgers to win 5 games [one he didn't finish] over two seasons.  Too bad they can't fire their owner.

Good point. Still have to think the Pats win. The Bills won't be playing the starters, and they probably just want to get through the game with no injuries. Maye will make enough plays to give the Pats the win. IMHO.

NE should not want to win this game either and give up the #1 pick

The fans think like that, but players and coaches don't. The players will want to win.

[BearNorth]

Bills have an +23 turnover margin with 1 game left to play.  Entire team needs a big round of applause.  this is a huge game changing stat.  O-Line esp, as Bills have only lost 2 fumbles all season with a QB who has "the ball is a loaf of bread" tendencies at times.

Winning the next game should be a "career limiting move" for Jerod Mayo.

 

The guy should be putting the cheerleaders (do the pats still have Cheerleaders?) and the Militia out there.

Probably be able to tell from the all22 angle. Josh directed someone to run there but cant see who from the broadcast angle. Both probably just end up there from running around scramble drill trying to get open.

In Keon's post-game he said he changed his route to be 'QB-friendly' when he saw Josh scrambling - then said "he (Josh) went all the way to the right, he told me to go back that way, I went back and he let it go"

Man we're going to rest starters next week, but that's the one game needed to sweep the division.

The Patriots are also likely to tank so that they can keep the top pick in the draft.

Who is supposed to be the top pick this coming year? The Patriots already have their QB. Would they be looking to trade out of their spot to stockpile other top prospects? 

[BearNorth]

Top Pick in the draft is worth 3,000 points.  That can be traded for 3-4 mid-to-late first rounders.  Bills entire draft capital for 2025 at position 29 is less than half of that.

[entropyrules]

I can't see the Pats "throwing" this game to get the #1 pick. They already have their QB of the future so unless there is some WR or DE/DT thats all world i bet they end up trading out of that low pick for some 1st and 2nd round ammunition.

I'm not entirely sure it was supposed to be Keon's ball.  It was going straight to Ty Johnson and Coleman just managed to get there first.  Doesn't diminish Keon's play at all, but I am curious who Josh thought he was throwing it to.

 

There is no way he's throwing downfield at a RB that late in the play.

That was Coleman's ball all the way.

Pat Dimarco's on line one!

Yep, both Josh and Keon said so.

This is why Buffalo is 13-3, if the turnovers dry up in the playoffs it will be a quick exit for the Bills.
