Taron Johnson - Super Bowl MVP

Very reassuring that the numbers check out!

Belichick = Jauron is a ridiculous narrative. I don’t remember Jauron shutting down the Bills offense to win a Super Bowl with the Giants. Those Pats teams were stacked and had the NFL/refs on their side for whatever reason. But Belichick is and always was a defensive genius. I believe what you’re seeing now is Belichick the average GM finally coming to fruition.

Same with the Pats game. Multiple calls on their final drive kept them in it. A lot of what we talk about on these forums is not what really happened out there.

And you’ll often see the makeup call later on in the drive turning a 2nd and 5 into a 2nd and 10. But the damage has already been done and they are already in field goal range. I also noticed the phantom pass interference that stopped the clock. Would’ve been a spike with a few ticks left. It’s game manipulation that always makes me weary of the Bills never winning a championship. I guess I just don’t get it. Why not rig it FOR a special talent like Allen? Why send him to London to get hung out to dry with jet lag?

How about that Murray penalty that wiped out the Knox td? It’s not about yards or number of penalties, it’s about the timing.

Allen does whatever it takes to win. He’ll run when it’s available and if his team is lacking, he runs. He is now being coached to only run when there’s no other option. This requires a great offensive system and weapons. Since we’re lacking that again, and Allen can’t run. Then we’re right here where we are. 4-3. I hope we turn around soon so we don’t look back on Allen-Mahomes 20 years from now and say “man, if only Allen had what the Chiefs had. He ALMOST overcame it.”

It WAS and issue the last 2 games definitely. Bad karma coming the NFL’s way for that. But today showed that we lack offensive weapons and our offense lacks creativity. Defense is hurting.

Lots of big time Chiefs fans in this thread.

I think it’s becoming clear after reading through this thread, that you need to have a distorted view of reality to think Josh Allen is not a great QB.

The fault of Frazier and special teams coach. McD got rid of them both. A man who fixes the things wrong with his system. That makes McD a GREAT coach.

They don’t know what winning looks like. How many perennial winning season did the Ravens or Steelers have compared to their SBs? 10:1? Pats and Chiefs are serious exceptions, and whether people want to ignore it or not, the Pats SBs have been tied to cheating. These fans play the game of extremes. If you are not as good as the very best, then you are no good at all. A projection of their own internal low self esteem.

It’s fans who don’t know winning, telling us we will never win a championship.

Yo get your messed up mind out of here.

Something really off here. Anybody have any intel?

I’ve been seeing lots of weird circular logic by posters last night and today. It’s like they start writing a post before thinking and then started thinking while typing the post, catch themselves in a logic error, but commit to posting anyways. Emotion vs logic. The never ending battle inside the heads of Bills fans.

How do you explain that?

You don't need numbers to see what was obvious last night. It was all Allen and Diggs.

What you’re seeing that’s off the last 2 weeks is the jet lag. We’ll be back to normal in time for the Pats division game.

What you’re seeing are the Bills rebuilding and looking for a new identity in real time. Allen and Diggs only is unsustainable and the first thing McD and Dorsey are saying to each other this morning. Not to mention Father Time will catch up to Diggs soon and he will need to become an elite slot receiver which would be a death blow to this team as it is right now. We have an improved Oline and are trying to get the running game revving for the first time in years. But Cook has his limitations and are trying to find the most effective ways to use him. Our receivers behind Diggs are not performing. Davis is unfortunately not consistently reliable, nor is Knox. Shakir is OK. What we need right now is a big dose of Kincaid and Sherfield. Less shotgun. A SMARTER run game, not just a balanced one. More playaction. More rhythm. Remember, it’s about having momentum in December/January, not October.

People are forgetting we’re still a little jet lagged and the Giants weren’t. I don’t understand how people can watch the Chiefs scrape out half their wins but B word and moan when the Bills do the same. Remember the whole “we can’t win close games” crap from last year? “No excuses”. I think a percentage of fans want perfection every week. That’s not how reality works in the NFL even for the best squads. How’s the Jets loss looking now?

You trust your great kicker.

Only to a vocal minority.

Optics. You just promoted these two. Just after firing the guy that went severely over budget on the stadium. And especially after Brandon. Reassign them and move on. It’s not like the city of Buffalo is flooded in executive talent. This isn’t NYC.

Pegulas are idiots. Reassign them. Don’t fire them for doing something that happens naturally.
