Steelers defense this season: - Allowed 32 points to the JETS(!!!) and Fields - Allowed 31 points to the Seahawks - Allowed 33 points to the Bengals (first meeting) - Allowed 35 points to the Packers - Allowed 25 points to the Chargers - Allowed 31 points to the Bears (last week) Or how about this: Have allowed 11 more points than the Bills D this season (compare that to the Texans who have allowed 70 less points than us)

They got beat up but were in it until the end, losing by 4 points. I'm not sure I'd call that worst team in the NFL. Can we do away with the hyperbole? Good lord.

I agree that the Elam and Coleman picks hurt.........but I don't think you really understand the Chiefs drafting record. Since 2020 the Chiefs have used first round picks on Clyde Edwards Helaire(bust) and Felix Anudike Uzomah(who has done very little in 3 seasons and is now on IR) and traded a #1 for a rental OT and lost him in FA(and replaced him with a dud). McDuffie was part of the return from Miami for Tyreek Hill..........a second first round pick that the Bills didn't have access to.

For the life of me, I can't understand why they went into prevent mode with zone coverage all the way down the field right before the half. Houston had plenty of time, and they predictably picked the Bills apart because a) the Bills couldn't get close with only four rushers and b) someone is always open in the Bills zone scheme if no one applies quick pressure on the QB.

That is literally ridiculous that Sean McDermott would be in the UFL without Josh Allen lol Sean McDermott would have another job in a millisecond as a head coach if we got rid of him He's literally was the defensive coordinator and play caller of the greatest Super bowl defensive effort ever in a losing game We've been severely outman in the playoffs for 2 years on defense and we lose by a field goal.. spagnola is literally fawned over here had more talent and a healthier defense and only gave up three less points hahaha And then he got gashed in the Super bowl the next week You would think if Sean McDermott was a bum and our defense was severely outmanned it would get whacked by Kansas City.. losing by three shows it's a hell of a coaching effort since everybody here says we're severely out coached, and they were healthy Doesn't make sense.. we also beat them five straight times in the regular season People act like Josh Allen was 100% guaranteed prospect.. he would have went first overall if that was true.. he literally had to get coached up to reach his full potential

He never translated as an NFL HC....yet you were (and still are???) pissed he didn't interview in Buffalo? holy cow

At least a couple of those teams were dealing with mediocrity on defense though. If Allen can be the same Allen as past Novembers, and Joe Brady can come up with a half way decent game plan that gives this team a chance... there is hope. People forget... Allen had his worst game against the Texans last year... and the offense had its worst game against the Texans this year... Good news is, we don't have to play a defense like that again. Only the Eagles concern me in that regard. The Steelers defense has been allowing a lot of points this year and is nowhere near the level of Houston.

He was playing like an all-pro, came back from an injury and was still playing like an all-pro, and then got hurt again. Horrible luck.

I hope you aren't planning on going to the game

Has anybody asked Brady about the declining effectiveness of mesh routes and receivers not getting open in recent press conferences?

We watch other games, just differently than we watch the Bills. Our assessment of the Eagles or Bucs is much more rational than our assessment of the Bills. All fans are like that, though. I think most of us would rationally say that the Eagles loss yesterday was just one close division game against a desperate team, but this thread exists on the Eagles forum right now: https://www.eaglesmessageboard.com/topic/13704-season-over-bad-team-one-more-win-left-at-most/

Agree on all of this - we just need to take care of our own business, starting this weekend in Pittsburgh. Every team in the hunt has "swing" type games, that can go either way. All 4 divisions are technically up for grabs. A lot of these teams also play each other over the final 6 weeks --- definitely safe to say that a 10-7 record will likely get you in this year.

Listen….I’m as about as anti MAGA as you can get…but the guy who won that ncaa race was a freaking DUDE when he got to college….she is correct

When you type this stuff….do you actually believe them?

People keep talking as if the 49ers have released Aiyuk. They have not. If you read carefully, it turns out that the 49ers voided his contract guarantees back in July, but we're just learning about this now for some reason. Everything beyond that is speculation and talking heads trying to put two and two together to generate content. Kyle Shanahan, when asked about it, doesn't dismiss him returning to the team. Strange situation, but as of now, he's still a Niner. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47065408/niners-shanahan-admits-aiyuk-contract-situation-unusual

So posters can’t reference a season from 4 years ago to make a point, but you can reference a QB that played nearly 40years ago to make yours? I guess all that matters is the bills suck, and you’re here to tell us you’re right?

How How is it worse than Diggs? He's far less public than Diggs. Or is this because he went shopping yesterday? I really don't care right now except introducing an element that opens up the offense. A #1 WR from a Super Bowl team is available, we should be trying.

AFC is so wide open this season --- there isn't a "dominant"/elite team, just a bunch of really good teams - who are all capable of making a deep run/going to the SB. I think Denver is the best, most well-rounded team and will be the toughest "out". Get in and anything can happen. Unfortunately, we need a lot of things to go our way for the division title at this point. Basically can't afford to lose another AFC game -- have to play in New England with them coming off a bye week -- then need New England to drop a game against the Jets or Dolphins. We'd need to beat them record-wise, which will take us running the table IMO. OR we need them to drop 3 AFC games (1 to us and 1 to either Dolphins or Jets, and 1 to Ravens) and for us to go undefeated in remaining AFC games (Philly game wouldn't matter). Playoffs start for us this Sunday --- that has to be the attitude from here on out.

The Steelers game is really the one we need to win. It's at home, and I do believe we can beat the Jets and Browns. The Bengals and Patriots are a toss-up, and until the Eagles laid an egg yesterday I had assumed that was going to be a loss. I've been thinking that would be the case for several games this year, and then the Bills end up winning them. So, I really have no idea, but I do know being at home should be helpful in this one.

It might be a revelation for the ages but maybe the defensive genius should devise a scheme and system that is both easy to learn and effective? Because I watch in complete amazement several games each and every week of the season as other team's defense has rookies and second year players making an impact. And I wonder why aren't we drafting players like this? Bigger, smarter, faster, more instictive, and better football players making plays.

And they all come back and PRAISE the McD and Beane culture....which seems to be a requirement to bring them back. I know its happens on other teams, but it sure seems to happen more here with players who are 30+ and can't stick anywhere else.

HAS BEEN,outstanding. This team isnt those teams
