LOL. Fair enough.

Well considering they rank top 5 in total defense and top 10 in total offense, why not? Not like I'm rooting for them b/c I absolutely hate them...but just being objective. Not only that, they're actually improving as the season goes on, which is exactly what you want to see as a fan of your team.

The Jets rank top 10 in total yds/game and pts/game (both higher than the Bills). Gailey and Fitz have that offense running at a pretty high level. For as many explosive players as the Bills may have, we can't get the job done consistently.

No way - I'd rather be the Jets with a serious shot at the playoffs. And the way the Jets are built, they can win a game or even two in the playoffs if things break right for them. We have plenty of question marks going forward and nothing is a sure thing in the NFL. So give me a shot now and/or next year as opposed to what may be 3-5 yrs from now.

You are mentally ill in my opinion if you're rooting for the Jets to ever win another regular season game, let alone the super bowl. Have you met any of their fans? Clearly not. Root for Cincy or Oakland or Pitt...but the JETS?

lets be real, from what any of us were expecting, Tyrod has been phenomenal..truly outstanding. no one could have predicted this type of performance from him. he's developed good chemistry with out best WR. he does have a few kinks he can still work on - as in trusting the short/intermediate route a little more than he does. but that can be coached in my opinion. it's not that he can't throw the short ball or intermediate route, it's that he prefers to go deep...I'm excited to have him. and of course we could use another QB - no news there. Tyrod isn't a big guy and the way he plays he can definitely get injured again. We already saw this year what EJ can do as a backup (the Jax game). We need another QB in here, but I'm really happy with Tyrod. Add more talent to the OL.

maybe mindset? a lot of these players seem to think that they're not being utilized correctly. if that's the case, I'm not 100% what the solution will be other than to bring in new players that buy into the scheme. We'll see.

The problem with an "elite" WR is that he requires a QB. Dez Bryant is elite but pretty much worthless without Romo. Mack doesn't rely on anyone. But TT and Sammy are certainly developing chemistry...it's hard to say. I'd probably lean towards the elite OLB/DE b/c I'm more defensive minded.

I wouldn't say I was offended. To me, it was more of a "wtf" moment - like WTF am I looking at right now? Did he just do that? I understand his love for Philly and I can't hold that against him so I'm not really offended by it...I personally (emphasis on personally) would have preferred he show his love for Philly a different way. IMO he simply could have expressed his gratitude for the city and the team in his post game interview and that would have been more appropriate. To be honest, had we won it probably wouldn't have been as big a deal.

Fitz/Gailey aren't doing things much differently than they did here. What's the main difference? Fitz/Gailey don't have to find a way to put up 35 points every single game just to have a chance to win. Those Bills teams had defenses that were epically bad and the offense pretty much always had to rack up serious points/play in shoot outs. And of course, under those circumstances, Fitz would usually end up throwing critical INT's. Not to mention that the Jets offense is more talented than the trash Gailey/Fitz had at WR here in B-lo. It's so bittersweet b/c I can't stand the Jets but it's so easy to root for Gailey/Fitz.

HA

Notice dareus dropping back into coverage in Kelce's TD. If i see dareus drop back one more time I'll get a sports hernia

Haha hahaha Haha hahaha

Bills 9 Chiefs 6 One of the ugliest games of the year.

Wow those numbers are unacceptable

I can't agree. You don't think the Bills, Jets, Dolphins ownership wouldn't want the Pats penalized for "cheating" if they could? To have Brady suspended? (which the league tried to do); to have draft picks taken away? To tarnish BB and Brady? I feel 31 teams in the league would die to have that done. The only cheating going on is that Brady and BB vs. 95% of the league is an unfair matchup in terms of talent/strategy. At the end of the day, look how many different teams have won super bowls over the last 20 yrs. We've had what, two repeat winners in last 20yrs? If certain teams are cheating, they're doing a piss-poor job at it.

In defense of Watkins, at least Hopkins gets the ball thrown to him. Did Yates care that Revis was covering Hopkins? Nope. We don't even target Watkins some games which is flat out embarrassing.

I'm not angry..it's just disturbing to hear fellow Bills fans stoop to such pointless, baseless, delusional accusations involving the NFL/Goodell and the Pats. You guys are better than that. It's like coming on here to argue about UFO's and unicorns. And are you still being serious? THE ENTIRE THREAD eludes to collusion between the league and the Pats. After you read this entire thread, what exactly did you take from it? Give me a one sentence summary of this thread. The OP even goes as far to say that the broadcast of the game is skewed in favor of the Pats b/c they don't replay certain penalties. LMAO. I have to laugh to not cry.

Are you being serious? Some of you are so caught up in your delusions, you don't even know what you're arguing anymore.

I'm not assuming anything - the conspiracy theorists are the ones that are making all of the assumptions. Claim: The NFL wants the Pats to win. Well, the NFL consists of 31 other owners. Why do the 31 other owners want the Pats to win? And why have the Pats only won once in the last 9 years if that was the case? And what exactly is the reasoning/motivation behind the NFL wanting the Pats - specifically the Pats - to win? Why wouldn't the NFL want the Chicago Bears to win? The NY Jets to win? The Dallas Cowboys to win? All larger markets than NE. How many super bowls have those teams won in the last 20yrs? Is it a coincidence that all of the Pats' success in the last 15 years has to do with a guy named Brady being the QB and BB being the head coach? It's not rocket science. There is no conspiracy. Brady & BB are the greatest QB/HC combo in the history of the NFL. Their time will soon come to an end, but lets not lose our minds with these silly conspiracy theories in the meantime.

what the heck is it with people lately going off the deep end and thinking the NFL is rigged? rigged by who? Kraft? Goodell? Are all owners "in on it"? the notion is ridiculous. Rewarded by who???? The NFL is a business, you're right. And that business consists of 32 owners. So are the other 31 owners in on the patriots "cheating"? How do the Jaguars benefit from this "cheating"? And why the Pats? Why wouldn't the Titans owner want the Dallas cowboys to "cheat" and win the super bowl? After all, the Dallas market is bigger than NE. Why don't the owners just fix it so the NY Jets win it every single season. Or you know what, what about Goodell making the Bears win it every year. You guys see ghosts. It's sad. Since Goodell has been in office, the patriots have won ONE super bowl in 9 years. With Tagliabu in office, the Patriots won THREE super bowls (in three out of four years in early/mid 2000s). Was Tagliabu "in on it" too? Critical thinking in this country has been flushed down the toilet along with a lot of other things.

I think the reason skill is such a key word is bc its specifically mentioned in the online gambling act. As for some people stating that the online gambling act not being written for what fantasy sports has become: who cares. The only thing that fanduel does differently than traditional fantasy leagues is the duration of the league. Oliver's video is funny and all, but it demonizes DFS by comparing it to a hard illegal drug. Really? So 1/2 a fantasy baseball season is OK to join and win and get $. But a week long fantasy league is so mind-blowing that it has to be illegal. All this is much to do about nothing. If fanduel or draftkings are doing something illegal by having insider information on players, etc that the avg joe doesnt have than penalize them appropirately. But to say that DFS should be illegal while season-long fantasy leagues are perfectly legal is a waste of our society's time. Christ. Before you know it we cant join pick em leagues either: they dont require "skill" to win. Its all luck; chance. ILLEGAL!!!

I get what you're saying but thats a completely different argument for another day. What we're arguing here is strictly DFS and how they compare to regular fantasy leagues. Not to poker. So back at it: The true only difference between DFS and traditional fantasy is the duration of the league. So if fanduel did month-long leagues would people be ok with that? And why? And who determines exactly how long fantasy leagues should be in order for them to be "legal". To further undermine everyones complaints about fanduel: Espn and cbs and yahoo all allow you to create pick 'em leagues on their websites where you and your friends can PAY to join. These leagues all have season ending payouts. Furthermore, many of these leagues have WEEKLY payouts for the person who wins that week. (My cbs league is $50 to the weekly winner). How is that any worse than fanduel? Its not season-long. And you're technically still gambling. The truth is - its no different at all. So lets get down the REAL reason many people have an issue with fanduel/draftkings: 1. They cant STAND the commercials/marketing 2. They suck at DFS compared to their traditional fantasy leagues and it therefore offends them. And your post kinda addressed ur annoyance with DFS right off the bat with ur "red carpet" comment. It becomes a personal isssue for many bc for whatever reason they cant stand DFS and all of the attention that surrounds it.

I know. We've lost our last 2 vs them after winning our previous 2 in dominating fashion. Of course, one of the games we recently lost was that Tuel debacle. I read that their RB, West went down with a hammy injury. That would be a huge loss for them b/c he's been playing really well replacing Charles.

I'd say we have to run considering two of our most explosive players on offense are RB's. Why shy away from that? I feel that a team should play to its strengths and not shy away from them b/c of who your opponent is. The NE Patriots don't give up a lot of rushing yards per game (2nd best in NFL), but that's partly b/c teams are normally playing catch up with the Pats and have to pass more (they give up 4.0yds/carry though which is 11th best in NFL). Hopefully b/c the Patriots are banged up, they won't be able to move the chains as easily as they normally do. If our defense can keep the pats at around 24-27 points, I feel we can pull out a victory focusing on what we do best: running the ball, and taking a handful of shots downfield to Sammy as opposed to changing our winning formula.
