Allen's problems in year 1 and 2 are stats....too many turn overs, especially fumbles and lower completion %. Unfortunately, the only things that are preserved from the past games are the stats and with the internet they are the most easiest to find....People build their own stories based on the stats they collected and are definitely not spending their entire week watching Allens first 30 games of his career.

Agreed...I think that is why Stefanski wins it. The Browns made the playoffs after 17 seasons in his first year as HC. He shut down all the noise in Cleveland and made them a disciplined team. I agree that people calling Flores a fraud are doing it purely on a spite of a division rival. He may not have handled his QB situation very well; but he had his team playing hard for him every week. He had them almost winning against the reigning super bowl champion; they beat the Patriots; won tough road games. Beat the Rams on the road, Flores will build that team better with the draft capital they have received from Houston....They could trade that 3rd pick into more multiple 1st and 2nd round picks and builld that team's offense even better. They may need to look for a more progressive OC than Chan Gailey

Only problem with Houston is that their draft cupboard is bare for the next two drafts. That is a coach killer for one who is coming in as a rookie.

Does any one when the NFL announces the AFC Players of the MONTH for December 2020?

Not if they played like yesterday.

May be it was to give the time for the back ups. It is not like we were throwing with Allen and Diggs. It was good to have Davis get that score for his confidence. It always works when you have a Franchise QB

The Bills are on a5-game WC losing streak. Time to end that with a win next Saturday. This is what they played for during 17 weeks. Now they are there. Time to continue the momentum and win the remaining FOUR games of the year

Agree the OL had a great outing against one of the best defense in the NFL (#1 in points allowed, going into the game)....But I think Josh played very well anticipating the pressure and stepping into the pocket to throw those strikes.

I think McKenzie is faster than Roberts. Isiah's issues have always been ball safety

The next stigma to remove for this franchise....break the jinx of 5 straight Wild Card Playoff loss

HaHa...I never dreamt that the Bills will hammer in 8 TDs on the day.

Thanks Shaw for the write up. As always. see the passion of a die-hard every time you write.

Three years ago on Draft Day https://billswire.usatoday.com/2018/04/26/2018-nfl-draft-brandon-beane-josh-allen-flaws/

Allen - He took the air out of the Dolphin's defense.

Darnold stays in NY. Minnesota lets Cousins walk or trade to SF. Stafford might be a good candidate for NE

This is how we lose a thread.

Steelers also have very limited cap space and they have to sign their own players like Dupree, Ju Ju, Conner....they also have to extend Fitzpatrick, Edmunds.. and they have an aging OL.

I agree. it would be just useful to have the 44 players line up and just walk by the other line

+1

I am sure they are following the criteria laid out to them in making their decisions.

The Bills won't go big fish shopping in the off season. Their draft picks like Oliver and Epenesa need to start playing like stars on their rookie contracts. That is how this team will be sustainable. These players have to start dominating

great New Years Wish. I hope every one of that comes true. Go Bills!

The biggest change has been in causing turn overs.

I think that is what will happen in the off season. Bills will negotiate a contract extension in the off season for Allen in the ball park of Watson (if we lose in the divisional round) and more near Mahomes (if we win the SB). Bills will add the 5th year option for Edmunds so that they will have him for at least 2 more seaons. Bills will extend Milano, Feliciano and Williams. They will figure it out to keep the core roster together. They got quite a bit of change to come off the DL, TE positions. The only wrench in the work will be if Diggs requests a new deal. But since they did give him more up front money after the trade, I assume that will wait until 2022 season. This team will be significantly different in 2022 due to expiring contracts for senior players such as Hyde, Poyer, Morse, Brown, Beasley, Jefferson, Addison and needing to pay young guns such as Wallace, Ford, Singletary, Knox etc.

The Denver Broncos were a pretty strong team...much like the Chiefs...having even gone to three super bowls before us. The Dolphins were always a tough team and right up there.
