It’s crazy to think how bad Green Bay might be. As Denny Green once said, “they are who we thought they were.” There is no sugar-coating how disgusting that team has looked in their meltdown against the Giants, and then losses to the Jets and WFT. Their defense is “ok” but it’s no match for Josh & Co. Their offense is putrid. It’s all well and good for Rodgers to say something to try and get the troops motivated for next Sunday night, but I have more of a feeling that his team will truly be “exposed” even further as a shell of its former self. League-wide, just look at what is going on with three teams who went “all in” on aging QBs. Tampa, Green Bay, and Denver all look pretty damn terrible. Bills by a billion.

This story is so touching, heartbreaking, and uplifting all at the same time. Just good vibes all around. Best wishes to that family, and (once again) kudos to Brandon Beane, his scouting staff, and the Pegulas for finding this farm boy from Firebaugh and bringing him home.

Preach! So sick of this being brought up by every miserable fan who wants to rain on the parade. Sad sack refrain #1: Remember The Jags! Sad sack refrain #2: 13 Seconds!

I’m not going to sort through a Tom Brady thread, but has it been mentioned that there are rumors out there of an out-of-wedlock child that is the basis for the divorce? I’ve heard this from several typically reliable sources.

The Athletic ranked all of the jerseys as well and Buffalo’s was top 5 I think. What a west coast road trip! Dahlin now five in a row and counting…

Did you know he can jump out of a pool?

I can’t believe I made it through the whole 21 minutes but I did…pretty funny.

Yes, the Eagles are good. I think in a matchup of two healthy teams I still give the edge to SF.

I’m basing it on their defensive talent (when healthy) and the fact they have some playmakers on offense (Kittle, Deebo, now CMC) and run Shanahan’s scheme very well. If Jimmy G isn’t asked to be a hero he’s a very competent game manager who can make some plays. You don’t have to agree with me. It’s ok. We’ll find out by the end of the season.

The 49ers are probably the best team in the NFC when their defense gets healthy.

Except Josh.

I heard a rumor CMC is a 49er. Pass it on.

Thank god. CMC was never going to be worth the cost to bring to Buffalo. He just doesn’t move the needle in this offense significantly more than Singletary.

They are kicking ass. Hope that stupid ref kick doesn’t wind up making a difference.

The Bills aren’t paying a 1st or 2nd or 3rd round pick for CMC. Carolina knows it, Beane knows it, and fans should accept it.

Apparently you did not run into anyone from Chiefs Kingdom, which is a blessing.

Not to reopen old wounds, but this has been discussed ad nauseum. A -- Josh was a late bloomer B -- Josh didn't grow up being groomed to play QB, and therefore didn't have the same coaching and reps other high profile recruits had going into college (he wasn't even recruited) C -- Josh got hurt in his first game at college (shoulder) Anyone who looked closely at the player, beyond the stats, saw what type of kid he was, what athletic ability was there, and what mental ability and drive were there. It was always going to take some time to let "playing the game" catch up. I'd glad Beane and staff did their homework and didn't rely on the analytics gurus who only look at box scores.

All I see when I look at that list is seven teams who aren’t nearly as good as the Bills. I couldn’t care less who we play.

I am honestly concerned for Tua. Two concussions in a four day span…history of injuries…I get being an alpha male athlete and all, but I will be holding my breath every time he takes a hit.

I’m amazed this vote is close. I don’t think CMC moves the dial significantly. OBJ becomes an instant #3 option in the passing game that teams fear.

I do.

Yeah, you're overreacting to my post a bit -- since I specifically mentioned the importance of Davis and signing a guy like OBJ.

What in the what???

I never know if you're being sarcastic or not, but "futility" is a bit strong. The only game with <413 total yards of total offense was in rainy Baltimore. I absolutely admit that having Gabe healthy is a huge benefit to this offense. I also admit that I'd like to sign OBJ.

Ugh. Why did you make me do that. Awful, awful, people.
