He had arguably the greatest postseason performance ever in a game when it was 0 degrees outside. I'm never not amazed by the amount of Bills fans who think a domed stadium should be built, forever eliminating their weather advantage, so that a then-30-year old QB can benefit from it for a few years.

They packed it in the minute Hamlin got taken off the field. The only reason they beat NE the following week is because they got two special teams TDs, and they only reason they beat Miami the week after that was because the Dolphins were totally decimated. They just quit on the year. Yeah, they went through a lot in one season, but so do plenty of people whose annual salary is 1/4 of an NFL player's weekly game check.

Not really worry about defense since it doesn't particularly matter anymore, as you saw in the SB when two great defenses were both shredded. The most important thing in the draft, bar none, is getting Allen more protection on the offensive line. If he starts getting time, we start scoring 35+ points/game.

Our line still sucks, yes? That is still the most pressing need.

People with low IQs really aren't cognitively able to learn from the past or think about future consequences. They can only live in the present.

I'm sure they won't completely regret that deal before Thanksgiving.

The number of people who think it is fine to chronically underachieve today just because the Bills had a playoff drought that ended over five seasons ago is ridiculous. Let's be real here...McDermott backed into the playoffs at 9-7 in 2017 (same record we had in 2014 and 2004 - two markedly better teams that simply didn't luck into the postseason), was abysmal in 2018, and then the QB they likely settled for morphed into possibly the most naturally-gifted talent ever seen at the position. You think Rex Ryan or Doug Marrone or Chan Gailey aren't making yearly playoff trips with Allen? Marrone went to the AFCCG with Blake Bortles and Ryan went there twice with Mark Sanchez. This losers' attitude that we should be grateful just to be in constant playoff contention is the type of thought process that led Cincinnati to waste a decade with Marvin Lewis.

There were zero real sacks in that game, correct? I think Hurts ran out of bounds one time before the line of scrimmage, so that technically counted, but no real pocket sacks. Allen would feast in that environment. As it stands, either one of those teams' defensive line would've steamrolled us.

His seat is significantly warmer now than when Frazier was hired.

Better team comp - early to mid 2000's Colts?
T.E. replied to bigfootindy's topic in The Stadium Wall
Those Colts teams wildly underachieved and ultimately only got a title because NE uncharacteristically melted down against them in the AFCCG before a Super Bowl where they got to go against Rex Grossman. Lotta Dungy-McDermott similarities. -
The NFL season/playoffs have already been perverted enough.
-
McDermott probably isn't bringing in anyone that could potentially become his replacement down the road.

Was bringing Hamlin into locker room just a bad call...
T.E. replied to Hebert19's topic in The Stadium Wall
I don't want to criticize him too much, because he went through something traumatic and his emotions are probably all over the place, but his decisions to both constantly shield his face and play into the conspiracy theories on social media (taking picture in front of his mural with face completely obscured, captioned "Clone") are pretty bizarre. What is the point of that? -
Everybody's Feeling Stung right Now but please.....
T.E. replied to jethro_tull's topic in The Stadium Wall
The school of thought that it's okay to consistently underachieve now because we really sucked a decade ago is bizarre to me. -
Saffold said guys were "exhausted" this week and "out of gas"
T.E. replied to Einstein's topic in The Stadium Wall
They can spare me with this stuff. You played one fewer game than virtually everyone else. You were at home. You showed no heart whatsoever. There's something weird going on with this team mentally, and it has nothing to do with Hamlin or blizzards. Tough to put my finger on, but it's there. Wonder if there's some type of infighting we're unaware of. -
A day later, I'm still in the camp of cleaning house.
T.E. replied to Pine Barrens Mafia's topic in The Stadium Wall
They are a soft, finesse team that routinely gets pushed around by more physical squads. Allen is enough to still get them on the right side of the scoreboard during the regular season, but in the playoffs, it's only a matter of time before a tougher team with better coaching dispatches them. I'm of the opinion that they're mentally weak as well much of the time. Always look frantic and out-of-sorts. -
Eric Moulds - this week’s legend of the game
T.E. replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
Still the record holder for the most receiving yards (240 against Miami) in a playoff game. You're gonna be really shocked here, but the Bills found a way to lose that game. -
I hope these guys wouldn't resort to this type of behavior in a playoff game. Like - off the top of my head - a divisional round matchup where you need a big kick to force overtime, for example.

And Darick Holmes game and Thurman Thomas game. The running game went absolutely apeshit in this one.

Question about the origins of The Bills Maffia
T.E. replied to Coldfronts's topic in The Stadium Wall
I've always thought it was lame. It's also attracted a certain element to the fan base that cares more about social media posting than the actual outcomes of the games. Lotta similarities to the pink hat Red Sox era. -
Potential decision made for Championship Game location
T.E. replied to Ra-cha-cha's topic in The Stadium Wall
Domes suck and are totally depressing. Taking the AFCCG out of possibly Arrowhead or Buffalo is an abomination, which is why I'm not remotely surprised that was the decision Goodell went with. -
Playoff Solutions Assuming they don’t replay the Bengals game.

Dude, I am repeating exactly what Taylor said yesterday and what McDermott said like three hours ago. -

T.E. replied to Locomark's topic in The Stadium Wall
He deferred to McDermott and McDermott deferred to the Bills tram captains. It was our decision, 100%. -

T.E. replied to Locomark's topic in The Stadium Wall
And the Bills were the ones who decided to stop play. The Bills left town immediately, ensuring there could be no make-up the following night. Why should anyone else be more negatively affected by our decision than us? It was the right choice, but it is one that comes with a certain unfortunate consequence too.
