Cooks is a year older than Amari Cooper.

Joe when he finds out colonists killed native americans

Are you serious Iirc there were 5 fumbles in that game and we recovered every single one

Who is next? Aaron Schobel?

People thought our schedule was going to be brutal this year at this stage last season. Then we found out its pretty cake - except we are blowing it as its us that is playing like dog 💩 and taking losses in games we should clearly win. So it is really hard to see if the schedule is hard or not hard this far out. So I don't waste too much time thinking about it. No one on that schedule scares me if we are playing good football. What scares me is we are not playing good football.

I may be overstepping but I don’t think gruden is the guy folks are clamoring for as hiring a reasonable selection. The dudes coach 3-4 out of the last 15+ years? I think the fact that you went straight to gruden and Rex may be PTSD from the darker days.

Might as well shut it down if we lose this one. You gotta be kidding me

Sad, but alas, the reality of this season's situation. The thing is, you never know, and even when you think you know, you never know. The Bills OC could pull his head out of his arse... the injury bug could go away, and players could return to help this team at just the right time. Lady Luck could return and stop the Bills from committing turnovers, and the defense starts getting them like they did last season. So many "IFs" but hey, anything can happen as Buffalo is still in it.

I didn't see us having fortunate bounces in the playoffs - particularly that KC game.

My ancestors were in Italy at the time so I never really cared much about the American revolution

I do think the absence of Ed Oliver is hurting his statistics I think Gregg still has room to grow in his technique and get even better ... He has a straight arm power move which is great .. with his length and leverage he literally takes OTs off their feet and you are right his bear paws for hands do stop players and QBs when he gets his hands on them As to the bolded maybe on some third and eights he can get more wide nine alignments to use his stride and get more leverage advantages... He does play a very tight alignment typically probably like a 6 technique

Your mistake is thinking you know what’s in my mind. You don’t.

said this already but last yr was the season of fortunate bounces and it still didn't happen

I agree & McD's road record is clear. But Super Bowl runs come in all shapes & sizes. Maybe being a WC team & underdog will actually help. I'd bet that every game we play is close, and down to the 4th quarter - if we get a bounce or 2, this could still be the year.

It’s the NFL. I wouldn’t address it at all if I were you. In terms of the topic, I agree. IF we can find some type of flow in the next 6 weeks and be decent we certainly could beat anyone in the AFC. It is very disappointing that we’ll have to go on the road given our offense seems to be horrible on the road but then again that’s part of finding a flow. We need Kincaid healthy, we need the OL healthy, we need Josh running and creating dual threat, we need Brady to have better game plans. On defense I’m not really sure what we can do other than hope to god we get a little healthier and create some turnovers. The top teams don’t have amazing QBs. Hopefully matchups help the D. All is not lost we just need to change our perspective as fans from SB bound to happy to have a chance.

passing offense is top 10 in epa/play and 2nd overall

Beane actually relied on Ed to stay healthy for an entire season, which was a really lousy gamble. He also didnt bring in enough backup talent because we are hamstrung by the cap. Combine this with McD's supposedly complicated defense (why???) and we have ended up here. The fact that Shaq Lawson is back is testament to that. Just ridiculous !

the league opportunity to alter divisions comes up in 2028 i believe. I do not think the league could have an expansion team ready in that time so i don't see much changes. back in 2012 i think it came up - the opportunity to change the divisions and it was discussed that they were going to make new teams. the NFLPA is against that. strongly against that. i don't see the nfl increasing team size therefore i do not see them realigning.

Watching other teams has given me the opposite thought. To me, this entire season is a HUGE missed opportunity. Seeing teams like the Indianapolis Colts (with Daniel Jones of all people) and the New England Patriots (with two former WRs on our team) feature passing offenses that are WAY more consistent than ours (with MVP Josh Allen)... it's just sad and depressing. For the last 5 years, we've been struggling to get past the other elite QBs of the AFC. Mahomes, Jackson and Burrow. And now that injuries/age have finally taken down our top competition in the conference, we completely fell off as well. Not only are we not going to get the #1 seed, but we will be lucky to get a Wild Card spot. I keep hearing that we still have a team capable of going on a run, since no other teams are dominant. But I'm just not seeing it. The Bills aren't flawed in one area. They have probably the worst rushing defense in the entire NFL, and a below average secondary. Their passing game has been an absolute mess most of the season, and even Josh Allen looks like a deer in the headlights. And none of their coaches have the ability to outsmart the guy on the other sideline. In fact, the only part of the team we can usually count on is the run game.

your mistake is in thinking nfl fandom is somehow reflective of a person's character, or intelligence. it's neither

That’s the part of the overseas series I don’t understand. I thought you were more likely to play in Europe in a year where your conference has the extra HOME game. But, according to the OP, the Bills have an extra ROAD game next year.

Playing in structure with anticipatory throws into tight windows that are open only if the ball is thrown on time is also a struggle for our boy. Creativity and his athletic ability have always been his strength, but against a good defense with a top pass rushing unit, you have to get rid of the ball faster as you don't have time to wait for something opening up deeper outside the structure of the play. Especially when running mesh routes which take time to develop, once those middle receivers cross (and the Texans did a great job of not following into a rub, but rather handing off those routes) you have to come off that to your next option and get rid of the ball. Good defense that stressed our offense line and Allen and exposed some vulnerabilities. Even with all that we had some opportunities near the end to pull out a win and we were not able to get it done.
