And yet another “next Josh Allen” joins the trash pile. He can say hello to Trey Lance.

Agreed! I zoomed in to look at it as well.

Thanks for providing additional details…it was a long time ago. You’re probably right about the incompetence of the Bills’ front office at the time but I still don’t think fans should be “blamed” for wanting a player the Bills clearly developed to show some appreciation for what had been done.

Here’s where I am on Diggs. I recognize that his arrival coincided with Josh Allen’s and the Bills’ ascension into NFL “royalty.” For three seasons he was a superstar who made play after play. I loved the guy. He never disrespected Buffalo and it was clear he wanted to win. Something changed, beginning with the Cincinnati meltdown. His attitude changed. There was training camp drama. His brother started tweeting. The offense struggled after the first few games even though he was still being targeted at a volume rate. Rumors surfaced about his relationship with Josh. The OC change was made and his production dropped like a rock. Then he dropped a crucial pass in the KC playoff game. You can say he was awesome for three years and crappy for one. Both can be true. It was time for him to go and I’m glad Beane made the deal he did. I don’t wish the injury upon him and I’m certainly not happy he got hurt, but karma is a b-i-t-c-h. I think that one day in the future Diggs will look back upon his time in Buffalo fondly and the fans will remember those three awesome seasons. He’s not going up on the WOF and he won’t be a beloved alumnus of Bills Mafia, but those three seasons were pretty special. Go Bills

That is such worn out tripe and needs to stop. Nobody knew Peters would become a HOFer. What Bills fans saw was an undrafted guy who the Bills gave a chance at TE, then converted to RT, had success, got a contract, and then pouted and demanded more. It’s ridiculous to place blame on fans for seeing a guy who didn’t seem appreciative of his opportunities at all. If he had shut up and played another season the Bills would have paid him.

No, but the Pats*** were awarded a compensatory pick in next year’s draft.

I’m glad someone started this thread. I was getting tired of all of the optimism around here for our 6-2 Bills with the 2nd highest point differential in the league.

Achane was the only Fish who showed up in W2. I’m not into score predictions but if the Bills avoid significant injuries and continue to protect the ball it’s hard to see them not putting up 30 on these guys. I like our chances.

Not an insignificant point. Look, we all hate that he had some ugly personal issues that resulted in a suspension but the Bills went 3-1 over that span and we now get a player who will be fresh and motivated for the stretch run. Von was beginning to play like Von…having him back only strengthens this pass rush.

It amazes me that folks still don’t understand how winning NFC games weakens the tiebreaker scenarios. Common, people!

It’s a beautiful thing. Meanwhile, in Orchard Park, Beane and McDermott have taken what many deemed to be a “reset” or “transition” year and have the Bills looking like a legitimate Super Bowl contender — and the cap picture just gets better next year.

Actually we need Kramer practicing his drives...

Well, you study it more than I do...I just see a guy who doesn't seem to run into a brick wall.

Davis has it too, and Johnson is no slouch. I'm really happy with this RB room.

Thank you. The Fish will always be my most hated opponent -- the residue of growing up in the 70s as I learned to love football and the Bills. My thinking going into the Seattle game was that they are overrated and one-dimensional. I also felt confident we'd be able to run on them. I don't ever really "worry" about teams that like to throw the ball a lot against a McDermott defense.

So, as opposed to last week, when I heard everyone worrying about the Seahawks while I felt it would be a relatively easy win for the Bills...now I'm seeing everyone puffing out their chests and predicting a blowout. This week is Miami's Super Bowl -- make no mistake. They know their season is essentially over if they don't win this game, because they're not going 8-1 or 7-2 down the stretch. The effort will be there...at least early on. The challenge for Miami, however, isn't just between the white lines...it's between the ears. They have a Buffalo problem. It's like we were with the Pats*** during their dynasty. It's not IF something bad will happen to Miami during this game...it's WHEN. Josh lives for beating this team and he'll do it again.

As others have already noted, there is NO way the NFL will give up a week's worth of revenue during the season. Further, why would owners want the country's most popular sport want to be off the airwaves for 12 days?

So here we are one week later and it just keeps getting better. Every result in the AFC went our way yesterday except Houston and KC. We’ve now overcome the loss to Baltimore and lead them by a game. The division could be all but wrapped up in the next month. Show no mercy to the Fish next week, Bills…sweep the leg!

Bump. When are you guys going to start trusting me?

Good call, man!

Sorry, I’m gonna say it. I feel a blowout Bills win tomorrow. Have a great Saturday night, folks.

He can always fall back on his goaltending school for income…

Exactly what about Bernard being stepped on by a lineman has anything to do with his size?

The RB room gonna eat in this one, boys.
