Dolphins could absolutely give them problems!

This is why I say Fire Beane. Many on here have noted since the start of the offseason (interviews at the combine is when I first noticed) a seeming "disagreement" between McDermott and Beane in regards to the team. The whole Lockstep seems to be out of sync. McDermott said we needed to be able to stretch the field on offense, I specifically remember him saying that, and then... Nada in the draft. I would like to see what McDermott could do if he had a GM who could hit on his 1st - 3rd round picks better. Better DL, LB, DB and esp WR! Maybe then we can see the Defense, and offense, that McDermott envisions. That said, Congrats to coach on his achievement.

i’ll eat some crow. He looked awful early in the season and i thought his contract was another Beane Masterclass. I was wrong and happy I was.

This has been one of his better coaching seasons. Doing more with less talent. Now let's end the season with a win.

While the dolphins nearly beat New England the first time around (if the rb didnt have his toe step ob) I cant see it happening the last week of the season. We all know Tua's record in cold games, and this one is in NE in January.

That team is young well coached and on the rise, I wouldn’t worry too much.

New England can’t clinch the division until Week 18 if we win out. Let’s hope the Jets or Miami have an upset in them, after we spank the Pats this week.

Yeah, my one complaint on this board is the amount of fans from other teams that are permitted to hang out and troll here.

Their dynasty is over. Mahomes and Reid could still go on a run in any given season, but them being in the AFCCG every season (or even most seasons) is done. A lot has to do with the Broncos ending their franchise dysfunction and Sean Payton building a good program, along with Jim Harbough in-division. Now the Raiders will probably draft Mendoza 1OA. The ferrari we knew the chiefs as, with Tyreek, prime Kelce and Hunt is long gone. Their defense and Kelce as a safety valve kept them great for awhile, but now Kelce is a shadow of his former self, and Chris Jones (their actual MVP) isn't the same. You also have other formidable teams in the AFC, it isnt so top-heavy anymore. And I don't believe Mahomes is as gifted as a QB to carry a team the same way Allen can, or even a healthy Jackson. While they can make the playoffs.... Kansas City isnt going to run through the AFC having to try in week 18, and them play on the road in weeks 19, 20, and 21 against better teams.

Meh, some people want to deal in absolutes. I like Benford. He's a very good player for us. Criticizing your best players for playing bad when you need them to be your best players is fair game. Benford was very bad to start the season. That's not a hot take.

Hate to say it but time has diminished TJ to a partial player. He always played bigger than his size and those hits have taken their toll.

Multiple times. He was attacking the LOS like it had kicked his dog and was repeatedly leading with his face over and over and over again. I think he was second on the defense in tackles, just behind Oliver. There were at least 2-3 of those tackles where he came in at full speed to take on a charging RB around the sticks and paid for it. Then he got up and went and did it again. There are folks who keep saying he's been coming on lately but has been bad since the beginning of the season; I think some of them may have missed the opener.

cringeworthy. He looked like my dogs when being given a treat. Bribery and flattery work on hi every time. Even if it's a participation trophy.

I’d be more confident if we hammered them at home, as it was the box score was pretty even. We basically lost that one on turnovers. Bills had 3 (two fumbles, one interception), while the Patriots had zip, this contributed significantly to the “L”. If we can play clean and control the possessions/clock game I like our chances in Mass.

They'll be fine.

Doc, I don't know why nobody else listens on this subject. The Phins have won 4 straight, have a pulse, and their schedule goes: @ Steelers (7-6) Bengals (4-9) Bucs (7-6) @ NE (11-2) No, I don't think they make the playoffs and maybe they can't beat New England, but I think they may have SOMETHING to play for on 1/4, especially if they can roll to 9-7, which is not impossible. If they are 9-7 and they can ruin the Pats season..yeah, they might show up. All we have to do in that scenario is run the table. The division would be ours and with 2 additional AFC losses by the Broncos, the Conference would be ours, as well. I refuse to give up pursuit of the division and the conference. Go Bills

Hopefully they can get at least two impactful starters out of this next draft. Preferably WR and then S, NCB, LB and DE are all in play.

‘Grandma could do it with Josh Allen’ is interesting phrasing 😂 I think even with wildly inaccurate rookie Allen for a full season mcd probably wins 8-9 games with a horrendous roster on a ‘purging bad contracts’ year. Rookie Josh missed a big stretch though and we had clowns like Derek Anderson starting haha

Here's a word of caution: those playoff % stats mean almost nothing, because none of what KC needs is that unlikely. I wouldn't bet on them making it, but stranger things have happened many times. I used the ESPN playoff machine and there's a few likely scenarios where they get in. Obviously, now they have to win out and hope LA collapses, which with both tackles out and Herbert with a broken hand isn't crazy. Plus they play them next week. 1 week from today they very well could be 1 game back with these schedules: KC: Titans Broncos Raiders LA: Texans Cowboys Broncos If LA loses tonight and KC beats them next week then LA will have 6 losses and KC 7. Texans and Cowboys have everything to play for still, so it'll be interesting. I can't see the Texans or Jaguars collapsing, and both have tiebreakers anyway. It's either LA or KC making it at this point.

Of all the teams in the AFC, I want the Bills to avoid the Texans the most. That Defense is a terrible match-up for the Bills, and Nico Collins is so tough. I'd rather play Denver on the road than the Texans at home.

I sorry.

His play for a win yesterday shows he has grown as a coach. I still hate that this has come at the expense of JA in his prime but he is a better coach now as compared to 5 years ago.

I ALMOST feel bad for Kelce…he was having a good year and they all turned on him because he couldn’t catch a ball thrown way behind him…don’t like the dude at all and never have but that feels a little unfair lol

There is, but they have been wearing Mahomes jerseys the last few years.

It’s a weird season where the first wild card team will probably have the easiest matchup (8-9 or 9-8 division winner, probably Steelers). The 2nd seed will have to play the Chargers, Jaguars, Texans, Colts, or Bills most likely.
