Nick Wright really HATES Buffalo Bills. We're his number one enemy. He proved that today with all of his yelling and preaching with fervor and passion when Buffalo Bills came up. It was embarrassing to watch. He didn't do that towards the other AFC teams. It's not the Chargers or Colts or Broncos or Ravens. It's us. That's why we want really want Chiefs in Wildcard Weekend (if we end up on Wildcard, too). Why does he hate us so much with passion? He knows Josh Allen, James Cook and, probably our O-line, are the real deals.

AI did this for me... 🏈 Josh Allen vs. Tom Brady — EPA/play Comparison EPA/play = Expected Points Added per play. It measures how much each play increases scoring chances, adjusted for down, distance, field position, and game situation. Higher = more efficient. ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Season | Josh Allen EPA/play | Tom Brady EPA/play | Notes ────────────────|---------------------|---------------------|──────────────────────────────────────────── 2020 | ~+0.25 | — | Allen’s breakout; MVP runner-up 2021 | ~+0.20 | — | Allen’s rushing EPA surged; Brady led NFL in passing 2022 | ~+0.18 | — | Allen remained top 5 in EPA/play 2023 | ~+0.17 | — | Slight dip; still elite 2024 | ~+0.20 | — | Rebounded; dual-threat dominance 2025 | +0.26 | — | Leads NFL in EPA/play ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Peak Brady | — | ~+0.30 | 2007: 50 TDs, 16-0 season Brady 2010–12 | — | ~+0.25 | Consistent top-tier efficiency Brady 2020–21 | — | ~+0.22 | Tampa years: high volume, strong EPA/play ──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── 🔍Key Takeaways: • Allen’s EPA/play since 2020 has consistently ranked top 5, peaking in 2025. • Brady’s best seasons matched or slightly exceeded Allen’s, but without rushing value. • Allen’s dual-threat profile gives him a modern edge; Brady’s career longevity remains unmatched.

Et tu, Beane?

We’ve been hurt, sure. We’ve also been a contain/bend but don’t break that always broke. I dont hate McD. I don’t even blame him primarily. Don’t say we’ve had a great D though. Not true.

You could literally name 10 retread old ass receivers we've tried to make work since 2022. It's a joke. We have people on this board thinking Shavers is the next John Stallworth because nobody else can literally do anything. I'm hoping the bengals keep sucking so the rift with Chase grows and he demands out. Then I'd no lie give up 3 first rounders + (and throw in stallworth/shavers ;))

Poyer had some time off. That may have given his body a bit of an opportunity to recovery from the wear and tear that playing football can inflict on the body. He's also basck playing the defensive system that he spent the most time in his career. That has put him in his comfort zone.

They should be very grateful there's anyone in the seats at all.

OMG Basham. Let the record show that, even though he's still in the league, he did NOT go on my list of "players the Bills drafted, no longer on the team, who are remotely any good". Creed Humphrey was drafted 2 slots later.

It was very close to being banned It's two votes away So I do not think it will be here to stay honestly

I guess Keon has no interest in getting that fat 2nd contract. Would not be surprised if he is out of the league in a couple of years.

If the bills put a wr on ir, sign Gabe to the 53 obviously. But I would be interested in KJ Hamler coming back to the ps. Still very fast, return ability and good locker room guy. I think he would be good depth.

I think you're exactly right on this.

Good ole bong rip 😂

1. There’s a special teams player of the week every week too. If there’s no big kick return in a given week, probably going to a kicker. Good kickers also have longer careers. 2. Mahomes has 12 OPOW in his career, so just outside the top 40.

I agree. I see no reason to ban the play from any standpoint. It just needs to be officiated closely to catch false starts, Offside, lining up in the neutral zone, etc.

It's pretty rare to be really bad at defensive total run yards, because if your defense isn't great, your offense must be very good if you're winning a Super Bowl. And if you're ahead, opponents will tend to pass more to catch up, leaving low total rush yards as a result. Having said that, the 2019 Chiefs won the Super Bowl while allowing 2051 rush yards (7th worst) and - a better indicator of how good your run defense actually is - allowed 4.9 YPC, 4th worst in the league. The 2018 Pats lofted the Lombardi while allowing 1803 yards (11th worst), but again, people were trying catch up and they faced few run attempts. But in terms of YPC, they allowed 4.9 YPC, fourth worst in the league. Didn't bother going further back than that. You can absolutely win a Super Bowl while having a bad rush defense. It's not ideal, clearly. But doable.

Yes, well, they've had going on fifteen years now to rise to the heights of mediocrity. The eighth seed is like Mt. Everest to that bunch. They are bad. At their best, they offer the barest glimmers of hope, which they consistently dash with an execrable and embarrassing performance like tonight. And the chucklehead owner does nothing. He, and the team, are a disgrace.

I'll nominate Boogie Basham. The Bills had an opportunity to trade down & took Boogie instead. He lasted 2 years, never started a game playing in 23 games & then was traded for virtually nothing. In fact, his stats say he has never started a game in his NFL career.

LOL don't you take that kind of thing with a giant salt shaker and a great deal of skepticism? It's PR, baby! Allen is not making player personnel decisions. He may be texting Beane game clips "look at that catch!" or some such, probably about multiple players. Beane was facing scrutiny for taking on $30M dead cap to NOT have Diggs on the team, and taking some heat for trading down rather than up in a WR-rich class to draft this guy Keon who had minimal experience as a WR, and for not doubling down at WR. So after drafting Keon, it's the Bills PR team job to present him to the fans in a favorable light. Make him seem like a likeable dude buying winter coats off season at Macy's. Make him seem like a player our star QB really wanted to see on our team. Etc Etc.

Shame.

As someone with ADHD Football was the one thing that ever had me focused I still to this day settle in when I'm watching a Bills game or scouting

I don't think he came into the season indifferent, but he's had some struggles since the Baltimore game and has NOT been living up to the "contested catch" billing. If he has issues with ADHD, he needs to work with the team's sports psychologist and get set up with cognitive behavioral therapy or whatever he needs to learn coping skills.

This was before the Tampa game obviously. I thought this tweet was spot on

To the bolded: you do realize that in 17 rushes (according to PFR it's 17 for 87...you have an extra 2 yard run listed), Cook gained 4 or more yards 10 times and more than 5 yards 8 times? And of the 7 unsuccessful runs, 4 went for 2 or 3 yards? So it wasn't really that bad AT ALL. 5.1 Y/A. It was more about not running Cook often enough in that game, if I'm recalling the postgame critiques accurately. Atlanta's pass rush/pressure packages is what was working most against the Bills, who should have run more often and/or simply better diagnosed and attacked some of the blitzes (tougher to do on the road and in a dome). The Patriots did effectively shut down Cook for 3.3 Y/A. No doubt. When that happens and the Bills fail to counter, I think play-calling and Allen's inconsistencies in diagnosing pre-snap looks (shared blame here with his coaches and what they're expecting and preparing for) are more to blame than the quality of the Bills OL personnel. Even above average blockers can look bad when repeatedly put in bad positions by predictable play calls, a lack of self-scouting, poor game planning, etc. And maybe Vrabel's boys up front just bullied our guys more than I'd like to admit...

Week 18 we have a WC spot clinched - a loss means we go from 5 to 6 or 7. Do we play to win? No way. He rests starters. Too early to even remotely care about this hypothetical right now. No at Baltimore is not ideal. My ideal WC path is this: At 2 seed NE in a snow storm round 1 At 1 seed Denver in a snow storm round 2 At 3 seed Indy in a comfy dome for Allen to torch them - no way Daniel Jones beats us idc how many times they run JT.
