I think you might have misread my comment ---- I don't think we have a strong defense by any means. Our pass rush is suffering without Ed and Hoecht, both key pieces to what we were trying to do. Our secondary is inconsistent at times too. But the hope is we continue to improve with the pieces we have left and some of the younger players (Walker, Sanders, Max) can step up at critical times. I'm very encouraged that we have started to "sure up" the run defense --- more passing/leads to more turnover opportunities, and getting teams into obvious passing situations. But the key thing --- is winning the turnover battle. That's the ultimate differentiator

I think part of it was keeping Allen under wraps as long as possible to keep him fresh for the playoffs. Look at Jackson: hamstring injury, knee injury, a shell of himself. Not able to really run. Very very rarely is a QB able to just put on the cape and become undefendable. And it doesn't usually last long. Cam Newton is the last guy I can remember who could physically take over a game. People forget just how unbelievable he was for a couple of years. He was undefendable. Allen is even better, and I can totally see him simply taking over playoff games and leading us all the way. It's not something you would ideally count on, but when you have a cheat code you might as well use it.

But we can have pencils with Democrats, Trump says no!

If it’s a close Buffalo win, I think the Pats would take it - provided they bounce back against the Ravens. Then they’ll focus on closing out the division against NYJ and MIA. If we beat them in convincing fashion, I could absolutely see it resonating in their psyche, and then if they lose to Baltimore… hoo boy. I don’t think this is a “just win” type of game. This should be a dominate them type of game. Not saying we will, but if we want to put that doubt in their collective conscience, that’s what it will take.

And not planning for a WR 2 solution either which is why we only have a slot receiver in Shakir. He should have been drafting and molding a guy to play opposite Diggs and instead they just thrust Gabe Davis into that role who was ill prepared for that role. He was great as a #3 option on the outside. Beane has been absymal on the WR role since Emmanuel Sanders 1 year role which again they should have been preparing for a proper WR 2 which wasn't just a random 1 year rental.

It was a killer, anything after we’ll never know.

Let’s go somewhere completely different? What do you want for Christmas?

Give it some time. It's the Diggs cycle. Right now we're in the honeymoon, "we're like brothers" piggy back rides on the cover of Sports Illustrated phase. This week he'll catch a 9 yard pass on 3rd and 7 and stand there staring into space all "intense" for 5 seconds. But soon Diggs will be doing the "almost" sign with his fingers to Maye or signaling "just a bit higher (or lower)" with his hands in a few weeks when he drops a pass in a big moment. Then after we go into Foxborough and thump them in the divisional round in a game where he was invisible he'll throw a fit and leave the stadium without talking to anyone and Vrabel will have to run out into the snowstorm and talk him out of an Uber and back into the locker room to talk with his team. But don't worry, everything is great. All are in harmony. Then he'll not show up for minicamps. Then he will. He'll say he was told to go home. The team will say no he wasn't. He'll make veiled comments on social media. Next season will start, he'll be invisible for long stretches except for outbursts. Then he'll drop another ball in a big spot and show up Maye acting like it was a bad throw. This will go on all season, and after he disappears in the 2026 playoffs NE will cut him and he'll go sign with another team with a young QB and the cycle will start again. BTW, this is the difference between Diggs and guys like Higgins and Chase. Those guys seem to catch anything thrown in their general direction. Freaking Higgins is out there concussed catching passes with 1 hand in a blizzard and holding on as he falls to the ground and hits his head on the turf yet again. Diggs is a great WR but he also vanishes in the playoffs. Those dudes are uncoverable. Luckily CIN doesn't play defense or special teams.

it’s not spite to follow a rule that is in place to protect competitive balance.

"Culture". He fits the culture of a division champ, and we needed more Curtis Samuel/Josh Palmer/Elijah Moore-type guys to take the next step. Wherever that step is.

This is what happens when unvetted people come into the country.

I love how this thread has gone from being about a malcontent non-reporting cornerback to about Josh Allen’s propensity for sacks this year.

Long story short, he became disgruntled and that impacted relationships not just in the locker room but throughout the entire building. The administration staff were happy to see him go. A true good riddance scenario. He went from being a jocular, light-hearted presence to a moody, bitter negative influence throughout the building. It’s a pattern with him. Helluva receiver and one of the greatest competitors this team has ever had.

That is a fair point. I think the Broncos are the one where I go "yea that's a pretty talented roster" but then Nix, while capable, feels like a limitation that could well bite them against an Allen or even a Stroud or a Herbert if they got hot in a playoff game.

Curls for the girls! Or in your case, curls for the men that dress up like women.
