The Falcons "strength of victory" metric is .306 -- far and away the lowest in the league, and it isn't close. I'm tellin' ya, they stink. Those seven wins are a mirage. This is not your MVP-era Matt Ryan. These last two games for the Bills are the biggest no-brainers of the season.

The Falcons have only scored 278 points this season...to put that in perspective, the Jets have scored 276. Only six teams have scored fewer. They've also given up 400 points, more than all but four teams. I'm really bored with the "the Bills lost to the Jags, I'm not taking anything for granted" takes. This is not a game in early November; it's one of two left, at home, to clinch the division. Buffalo isn't looking past anyone and I fully expect an ass kicking.

I’m not suggesting Allen should win it this year…just that any and every MVP discussion should include his name.

Of the 10 McD/BB matchups since Sean became HC yesterday was probably the closest we’ve seen to a “fair fight” in that you had two playoff teams late in the season. Perhaps the late 2019 game fits that bill as well. BB certainly hasn’t “owned” McD when both have had competent teams. 2017 — Brady vs. Tyrod 2018 — Brady vs. Anderson, Brady vs. Rookie Josh (insignificant last game of season) 2019 — Brady vs. Josh x2, both close games 2020 — Josh vs. Newton x2 2021 — Windstorm, Josh vs. Jones

You simply can not watch yesterday’s game and say Allen isn’t MVP worthy. On the biggest stage, against the #1 NFL defense…he dominated.

Lakers by 6.

Just sayin', about the last thing I need is a Pats*** troll telling me what a "great win" this was for my team.

This is a decent point, I think. While I've resolved not to "worry" about whom the Bills face in the playoffs, lining up against the Pats*** again would be fine.

[facepalm]

I’ll go ahead and start this thread. The Falcons ARE NOT GOOD. They’re not even average. Don’t be fooled by the 7-8 record. Their wins: Jets, Giants, Jags, Lions, Saints, Dolphins (early in the year), and Panthers (with whom they split). They have a -122 point differential. What should we worry about? Patterson as a RB has been good. Otherwise? Meh. Buckle down and take care of business, Buffalo.

Beas is gone, for football reasons as well as for being an idiot. Got Wally Pipped yesterday. McKenzie is younger, quicker, and has Josh’s trust. Stevenson is there to develop. Star can go pound sand as well. We’re moving on from these aging vets with nothing much left to provide (except distractions).

Exactly. Worrying about whether we play Indy or NE*** or whomever is a waste of energy. The Bills will be motivated no matter the opponent, and we have something none of them have — Josh Freaking Allen.

No, and damn you, sir, for mentioning it.

Li’l Dirty had himself a DAY. Cole who?

Bye Trolls

Yes.

It’s as if Timmah doesn’t understand that football players are actually human beings who take pride in their jobs and don’t appreciate being asked if they are “embarrassed” by a pasty geek who does nothing other than criticize others without repercussion.

Hopefully those moments don’t include getting our franchise QB killed. (I keed, I keed…really like the swagger from Brown and hope he is a good one for years)

Why would they be disappointed? Seattle’s stadium is protective for the fans and is regarded as a very hostile environment for the opponent. Sounds perfect to me.

Yeah, I mean Brown can't get any worse than last week...can he?

Current weather forecast: 39 degrees, 14 mph winds, no precipitation. Perfect for the Bills. Just enough wind to bother limp noodle Jones, but insignificant to Josh.

This is interesting, particularly since his right hand is also his non-throwing hand.

Not that this has anything to do with anything, but that Rams/Seahawks game last night created a crazy ending in one of my fantasy leagues…one team had Metcalf and the other team had the Rams D. Metcalf’s late catch put that team up by 0.2 points, but then the Rams interception a play later won it for the other guy. I’ve never seen that before in 20+ years of playing FFB — the last two meaningful plays of a game resulting in two lead changes. And in the playoffs. Nuts.

On behalf of Bills fans everywhere, THANK YOU for having nothing to do with how the team is managed.
