don't let facts get in the way of a perfectly good rant

The Bills have the feel of a team that missed its moment, an old veteran bear still capable of mauling anyone but tired, deeply tired. New England is like the big youngster new on the scene ready to take over the territory. The Bills need a fresh start. Not a rebuild, at all, but fresh leadership. McDermott and his coordinators have been figured out (and never were elite), and Beane is just spinning his wheels at this point, reactive instead of proactive, always one step behind his peers, with a stale vision for the team. I don't see it happening, though. As others have said, an owner that would tolerate a perpetual loser in the Sabres is never going to fire a coach and GM with the record of McDermott and Beane. Meanwhile, we will continuing telling each other, "All we need is a wide receiver. And a pass rush. And a linebacker. THEN we'll go all the way!" It's better than the wasteland years, but it's still a pretty depressing scenario. Groundhog day with Sean and Brandon.

Ariel, listen to me The human world, it's a mess Life under the sea Is better than anything they got up there

not to mention the pats will be coming off their bye when we play them.

Be sensible, as change won't happen unless there is a great deal of losing involved. I doubt any changes will be made even if this years team doesn't make the playoffs. Clearly this owner is not as frustrated as some of the fans here. My take is most want a SB so badly they aren't thinking straight. The Baltimore Ravens have a two time MVP and haven't gotten to a SB yet and with a SB winning coach so he knows how to do get them there. The freaking Chiefs have been blocking all the AFC teams save that one year that the Bengals got in. And what happened to them since?

I agree. Why isn't this an off season thing??

We need to clone Spencer brown!

The Brady-led Pats teams were so easy to hate. I hate the Pats, but I actually enjoyed watching the brand of football that they played last night. Maye, at this point, is a very likeable guy with a good attitude. Diggs, who I really liked on the Bills but now dislike vehemently, was exceptional at finding holes in the defence as he has eternally been. The defence was opportunistic and stout. Dammit!! I hate myself for everything that I just wrote!!

And don't forget that Hollins was a very good special teams player.

Remember those passes to Shakir where he was in open field that he turned into massive gains/TD's? He's also been neutered by Joe Brady and his weak passing offense

I couldn’t agree more. So many in this Board are quick to use the excuse that we’re picking later in each round. And yet somehow Beane is able to find players that nobody’s ever heard of in each and every one of them. It’s almost as if the Bills are purposefully trying to build a roster made up entirely of no-name guys who won’t stand out too much, rock the boat, or make any sort of splash. And I’d put it to you that Josh Allen is also just that sort of guy. But in his case he’s just a freakish athletic talent.

Not that Shavers is all that as a receiver, but he would stick as he's a good blocker and special team demon. If anybody would ride the pine it would be Keon. He is next to useless and gets the lion's share of the snaps.

I hate that their time in the wilderness has been so short. Of all the fanbases in the country, New England (or at least Massachusetts) most deserves decades of misery. Quite apart from the obnoxiousness that seems baked in, it's just not right that the Celtics, Bruins, and Red Sox are perpetually good.

I really dislike the person, but as a player I can recognize he's really talented. His play this year is even more impressive when you consider his age and the major injury he's coming off of. I do, however, hope he steps on a whole bag of Legos today.

Maye’s salary bump won’t kick in until the 2028 season. The Pats have a long runway….

This is an eye opening stat.

More than Knox ($14.5M), Samuel ($9M), Palmer ($4.3M) & Moore ($2.5M) COMBINED It's like paying his $30M in dead cap twice. Bad Budget Beane

Lifting the curse!

Last night was the only Pats game this season that I watched beginning to end aside from the Bills game. They are a really, really good team in all facets. I love our Bills, but I would be blown away if they got it together sufficiently to go into Foxboro and take out the team we saw last night. The Pats have more talent at every level, save RB and QB. It hurts me to say it, but the quarterback play is a wash this season. Drake Maye is an extremely talented player and he has a good head on his shoulders. His accuracy, decision making and poise are frustratingly impressive. The more I see the Pats succeed this season, the more angry I become with McBeane and their inability to get over the hump the past 5 seasons. The window of opportunity is being closed due to arrogance and ineptitude.

A crazy Andy Dalton and Tyler Boyd pass and catch had more to do with that than McDermott did, then what happened in that playoff game against Blake Bortles and Doug Marrone, lol

There's a whole world outside these boards lol. I'll say this much, I very MUCH prefer the Patriots fans that post here to the Chiefs fans that post here. I can handle Jets fans (they aren't really that intelligent) or Dolphin fans (they really don't understand football that much. But they try). It's the typical self entitled, smug Pats fans that only know the Brady era that make me want to drill my fist into a wall.

Are you citing last nights game as evidence of this? NE is playing better then the Bills at this moment but that's not the same thing as saying NE is playing "light years" better then Buffalo.

Do you think the Bills are going to get to and eventually win a Super Bowl with Beane and McDermott as the GM/HC. After 9 years my answer is NO. The Eagles eventually moved on from Andy Reid, and he had more success in Philly than Sean has had here. IMHO it feels like a change is needed in the FO.

The extent of Dem's partisan, political, reach in many of its recent claims is remarkable
