Those two examples you used are ancient history in NFL years. These days there is maybe one defense per year that is able to actually slow down top offenses. This year it's Houston, and they have two top 3 picks that turned into superstars. A team like us picking at the bottom of the rounds, we're never going to have a defense that talented. And just to be clear I'm not saying defense is totally meaningless even with the rules as skewed towards offense as they are today. I'm fine using 1st rounders on DL and CBs and occasionally giving out big FA contracts to legit defensive players. But you can't spend almost your entire set of offseason resources on that side of the ball, and then still get into games like yesterday. We're extremely lucky to have the only QB in the entire NFL that can win yesterday's game for the Bills, but I hate having to rely on that. There have been several games this year where we needed the offense to be the unit that made a play at the end. Same with our last two playoff losses. Sometimes Allen is able to pull it out all on his own but a lot of times he's not. So I'm happy to accept that no defensive coaching could have made any kind of difference in yesterday's game, as long as we're also accepting that no amount of investment could have made a difference either. Whereas a couple legit investments on offense absolutely could have made it easier on us. Allen's ability to have a legendary performance in a shootout should be a bonus, not the only possible win condition.

In the back seat of her Jeep……..so cliche.

I think if the Chargers lose this game they don’t make the playoffs. The schedule they have is brutal. The Colts are in big trouble. Sooo guess who can run the table and get the 7th spot.. it’s not impossible. As the Chargers walk down the field 😆

Cincy could cut Flacco….

Plus he liked to grab jerseys. The fact he washed out in Dallas that quick, with the state of their secondary, tells you all you need to know.

The funny part is, regardless of who calls what plays when, it's always the same. The bills defense sucks, "McDermott needs to be fired". The bills defense is good, "Man Babich is calling a hell of a game right now". There is no in between with fans on this for some reason.

If the Chiefs have another down year in 2027 then Mahomes legacy will be greatly affected. It will really show that it wasn’t all him and he was held up by a lot of talent.

don’t know how old he was but Steve DeBerg played forever , not sure of Grandpa status though

You'd just rub some dirt on it and get back in. Who remembers those ammonia capsules? Just break one and hold it under your nose; that'll get rid of the cobwebs.

Does this extend his HOF window? Interesting move. I always liked rivers

Doug Flutie says hold my beer.

Don’t tell me who won, I have been in my solitude of darkness for the past 3 days.

Allen could’ve realistically won MVP in 5 of his last 6 seasons. The records are what do the most talking and he’s breaking them every week it seems. The MVP is an opinion based award.

To be honest, at this point with the team we have, I favor trading up to get that player you really want and believe can be a difference maker. It was one thing when we were building our team (and Beane has traded back many times), but now we need game changers. Most DL need 2-3 years to develop so it's too early with Sanders.

[More than some Two Bills Drive posters] When did Brandon Beane become the Colts GM? [/More than some Two Bills Drive posters]

Safety is a very cerebral position. It requires a high football IQ. Poyer has it and Bishop was drafted in part on his football IQ. CB used to be just an athletic position but with the advent of pattern match D's, it now requires the ability to think on your feet. Several years ago Beane said that the light hadn't yet come on for Elam so I think he was a bust because he lacks a football IQ.

Yeah, Stafford is on a heater this year. He looks like Stafford from 5 years ago, but he has better weapons. 35 TD's to 4 INT's is insane. BUT if Josh goes on a run and ends up 45-50 total TD's, then he will be right there in the convo. He is also 3rd in the NFL in rushing TD's with 12. Only Gibbs and Taylor have more.

I feel like we don’t go to boards of other teams mostly because in comparison to here those boards are dead. We also have a lot of knowledgeable fans on this board as well, though we do like everyone who have people talking out their ass as well. As for the other part, if you tell me I can be the 5 seed with Pittsburgh as the 4 seed and then my road is a NE/Den team in the divisional round I’ll take my chances. Doesn’t mean Buffalo will win all 3 games either but I like those odds over playing a Houston or Baltimore team or even KC if they squeeze into the 7 seed

No not even close. I know how this works as well as anyone because I do it for a living. As I have said before. The person to ALWAYS win the MVP has the best odds at the Sports Book after the last regular season game has been played. Right now Allen’s odds are +1400 or +1500 depending on which sports book you want to look at, which puts him in 4th place. Not even close to being back in it. Stafford is -160 to -180 in first and Maye is second at +200. Those are the only two in it right now. You also have Love in third at +1000 but he isn’t really in it either. Allen could play like he did yesterday the rest of the year and he still wouldn’t be in it unless Stafford and Maye both go on turnover sprees to finish the year and both have one to two turnovers every game, each game from here on out. That’s the main reason Allen isn’t in it anymore is because he has too many turnovers on the year compared to Maye and Stafford to this point. Allen is at 12 total with fumbles + Interceptions. So the answer is a huge No, he isn’t even close to being back in it at this point. I’m as big of Allen fan as there is also, but I’m also realistic and study this stuff for a living. You will know when he is back in it, if he does get back in it because his odds will drop down to +250 or less.

Bret Favre was also an active player who was a grandfather. Rivers was a grandfather while playing.

I don't like either of these teams for different reasons. may the better team dub and it not be based on baloney officiating or controversy.

Need I say more

I know it will be loaded box after loaded box, but I'd love to see Saquon go off on these guys tonight.

people may laugh at him, but i hope he succeeds. i love the underdog.

I will watch the game and see who wins. I hate the Eagles very much so I will not cheer for them to win.
