Bills are much better at home than in road. Divisiion is a big deal, I think. -

I'd just sit him and get him healthy. As important as this game feels we don't need it. Anyways Pats WRs are a middle of the pack type group so we can get by without him I think. -

I think the run defense has improved with Shaq Thompson being inserted in place of Bernard. Bernard must have been injured because he was playing like dog poop. However, Shaq is not a very good pass defender. Very good post too.

Sean on with Sal: Benford has in injured toe and wont practice. Not sure if he will play sunday.

I know why. I live in NH.

Based on his pattern history, we have the opportunity to start the toxic Diggs cycle in New England this weekend. đ

So why was Diggs traded, again?

Not only your description which is accurate but he takes about a season or two to alienate teammates and the coaching staff. When he doesnât get targets or the team starts losing,he mopes around and starts pointing fingers. Heâs a me guy and after cancerizing the locker room, teams look to dump his contract. Heâs the grizzled veteran leader right now in NE but my prediction heâll be gone year after next. -

TNF - Bucs/Falcons (Not that anyone cares)

Tie breakers within a division: 1) Head-to-head (best won-lost-tied percentage in games between the clubs). 2) Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the division. 3) Best won-lost-tied percentage in common games. 4) Best won-lost-tied percentage in games played within the conference. 5) Strength of victory in all games. 6) Strength of schedule in all games. The Bucs losing hurts us in the strength of victory tiebreaker -
I'm intimately familiar with the Bills' strengths and weaknesses, but on principle I refuse to watch Patriots games (Bills fans in NE will know why), except when they play us. Can someone give me rundown of where they're strong and weak, especially vis a vis the Bills? The rundowns I can find online are insipid, fatuous, partisan, obnoxious, obsequious, opaque, overly long, sophomoric, pretentious, officious, and/or dated.

As the old Frenchman I worked with used to say, "I dink ee god da goud!" đ¤ (I think he's got the gout.) -
But the Eagles are not there because they spend all the money on one guy. They drafted pretty well when they had the chance - Jalen carter, Jordan Davis, Cooper DeJean for examples. A friend of mine working for a sports agency had a chance working along side a former GM who did consulting for them. He said the simplest way to look at the money perspective is 22 starters averaging $10 million each for the season, which would take up $220 million. The rest of the cap $50-60 million taking care of the rest 32 guys on the roster. If you have a super star, like Allen who will be counting $60+ million in 2026, then you need to find 5 capable guys in the 22 starters to make next to nothing. For Justin Jefferson who is making $35 million, you are asking 2.5 guys in the 22 to make next to nothing. Guys making next to nothing but is capable of starting are typically your 1st, 2nd and 3rd round picks. Every year you get to draft 3. Allowing 1/3 failure rate (which is really an unrealistic drafting record), you are talking about 3 year of good drafting to make it work. How many starters the Bills have that makes almost nothing? If don't have enough from your draft, you have to fill from the scrap yard. We are lucky to find guys like Edwards. But the more likelihood is guys like Poyer, White who really should not be your starters. Note the signing of Joey Bosa is not a scrap yard move. You paid for a quality starter and he gave you just that, at least so far.

Oh yeah, one last thing. Not only do I want to beat them Sunday, once we run the table and those p#@$&ers lose to the Ravesn and Fish would be fitting. Get them again, this time in our house in the divisional round, and bury them. Their reign is over. F#@$k them. We can repeat this battle next year.

Weâll never know because the god awful Buffalo media never get to the bottom of anything

The thing that makes me want to scream is how there always has to be a huge asterisk next to the majority of our top players that says "when healthy" next to it. If you're never healthy more than a few games, you're as much a liability as an every-game JAG. Durability is the biggest problem this team has, year after year.
-
Wow! Joeâs Bâday goinâ on over 2 days now. Kinda like having divorced parents.

Allen, Cook and Dalton are play makers. The rest of the team is c+ to b+ players, with maybe 1 or 2 offensive lineman and our CB1 just this side of A (and our one year rental DE, when healthy.) With Josh Allen, you have a chance as long as those B players have the right mindset.

thenorthremembers replied to ProcessTruster's topic in The Stadium Wall
He's up there for me as well. Mainly because he is a complete fake and liar. The emotional immaturity is just the cherry on top. The only reason it wont turn bad in New England is because he's too old. -
This is fair.. and as weâre seeing, teams that pay their QB (Philly aside) have major holes due to that. Burrow defenders will justifiably point to how unbelievably well he played before those picks and in the drive after (accurate, he was amazing). But when you make what he makes, and furthermore advocate for a huge chunk of cap to go to your top two WRâs, you canât be the one who makes those mistakes. You shouldnât expect your defense to bail you out. You knew the deal when you signed your contract and went above and beyond to advocate for Chase & Higgins. I donât blame him if the injuries are getting to him. And the Bengals, prior to this year, are responsible for not protecting him. But in terms of this singular game, you know the deal. Youâve got to outscore people. You canât throw a pick six in the 4th Q and expect to beat another elite QB (whoâs also covering up for holes on his team).
