    Agree, I can see them winning or losing the Browns game.  I still feel like the Patriots will have something to play for, whether it's a 1 seed or undefeated season, so that's a loss.  I just feel like the Browns game is going to be a critical one, especially if they split against the Steelers and Broncos.  If they can win two of those three games, I feel like they have a shot at 10 wins and a playoff spot....

    Yeah. I feel like the cowboys, ravens and Steelers games are tests. Steelers record isn't great but would still be a good win away.

    Well, yeah.. Cause you're asking a sensationalist question that is based on a huge hypothetical while the whole board is reeling from an emotional loss... Just because you dress it up, doesn't mean it's any less pointless. 

    5-2 record is great but we've been really poor since the bye. That falls on coaching.

     

    Although there has been good there has been bad and we could have lost at least one other game realistically. I'm sorry but we DO NOT KNOW if this is a good team now even though the record is good at this point.

    I feel like he will be canned after next year.  The Bills are showing us who they are after about half the season, at what point do we believe what we are seeing?  They are a team that finds ways to win against bad teams, coin flip against "ok" teams, and has a high probability of losing against good teams.  Playing the schedule game...

    • Washington - Win
    • Browns - Loss
    • Dolphins - Win
    • Broncos - Win
    • Cowboys - Loss
    • Ravens - Loss
    • Steelers - Loss (or win this game but lose Broncos game)
    • Patriots - Loss
    • Jets - Win

    Final record 9-7, miss the playoffs, Allen looks about the same that he does now.  Coach keeps his job (and he should), OC is potentially fired.  They go into next year facing a tougher schedule and potentially a new offensive system, Allen does not progress as much as we would like, they go 5-11, Coach is fired after four seasons and one playoff appearance.

     

    I HOPE I AM WRONG.  But this staff is going to live and die with Allen, and I feel like they *think* they can continue to win games 17-14, with a strong defense and a limited offense. We have seen this thinking dating back to his first year as coach & Tyrod, and this season has given me no reason to think differently.  The lagging indicators look great - they are WINNING.  But the leading indicators and looking beyond the winning...I just do not feel like the winning can be sustained with the upcoming schedule and their playing style.  

     

    Hope I am wrong....

    'They are a team that finds ways to win against bad teams, coin flip against "ok" teams, and has a high probability of losing against good teams.'

     

    You are totally right with this.

    I cannot think of a big signature win under McDermott against a BETTER team. Maybe Minnesota, that's it.

     

    if we keep beating the bad teams he will keep his job but we do lose to the better teams and there will be a point where this starts to be highlighted.

     

    WE LOSE TO THE BETTER QBS AND BETTER COACHES. 

     

    (The browns game is one this bills could win).

    Me thinks the Major is either still drunk from last night, or he is a big proponent of day drinking.  I'm not a huge fan of McD, but he is going nowhere.

    Like him as a coach but

     

    5-11, 6-10 he's getting the can. So some extreme examples of losing out could mean he's gone.

    I think it is fair to say the Bills uniforms are extremely popular among Bills fans.  Everyone seems to love them.

     

    I have never seen it that way.  I think the uniforms are OK and nothing bad, but I have never looked at the team and thought they were gorgeous uniforms or the best in the league.  

     

    This linked article has the sort of throw-back Chargers uniforms, Raiders, and Saints uniforms ranked ahead of us, and I would agree with all of that.  I also really like Tampa, San Fran, Seattle and many others. 

     

    There are many more interesting college uniforms than NFL uniforms these days, both in terms of flashy modern, and simple old-school retro.

     

     

     

    Fair do's. Your probably in the minority with the Tampa unis though - too cartoony for me!!

    Yeah, you are probably right.

     

    I just saw them and thought they looked a different color.

     

    I am indeed an idiot.

    I only want them for one game, not permanently .

     

    It would be nice is all.

    I agree, red helmets for ONE GAME a season. The white helmets are a good change.

     

    That's said the real problem for me is with the red unis.

    My least favorite uniforms on back to back weeks. I’d appreciate if Kim Pegula called me before the team made these decisions. 

    Haha. The red unis are awful - it's a pats uni. Doesn't look like the bills.

     

    3rd uni should be the classic

    Why can't they do a early 90s, blue jersey/white pants throwback complete with the red helmet sometime?

    Yeah totally

    Throw this combo in the trash!  ?

     

    Let's just go with the Blue tops with white pants for home games.

     

    All whites for away games.

     

    If we HAVE  to wear the red uni ... Red top with white pants. 

     

    If we go with this 3 sets we'd win best uni combos in the league.

    Yeah like others have said. Forget the red uni but change the helmet to red for the 3rd

    I saw the All-22 of that play as it was happening:lol:..........if Allen were Chad Pennington throwing with perfect anticipation and placement within 15 yards of the LOS then this WR corps would be a great fit.   He's not.   He didn't see John Brown open on a 3rd down pass that fell incomplete to Knox in the first half as well.   That's what you get with him.   He also buys time with his feet and creates opportunities for passing plays that a game manager could not.   

     

    Yeah I remember that play where brown was open. To be fair I didn't see Allen miss alot of open players in this game.

    Considering the success Allen is having in the 4th quarter where a sense of urgency seems to lift his play, should the bills consider running an uptempo offense at the start of the game?

     

    Thoughts?

    The J gun. why not, I wonder if mcdermott is averse to it though as it leaves so much time on the clock.

     

    having said that it's nice also to have it in the back pocket.
