  1. I guess Matt doesn’t have a taste for kneecaps.
  2. All along I had the Bills at 12 or more wins this season and winning the East, but even I did not imagine what Allen in particular has done. I envisioned a better defense all year with Allen taking the next reasonable step, and I thought next year would be when the Bills became a monster. It has been my second favorite Bills season of all time (1990) but if they win tomorrow it may surpass even that.
  3. True, but literally no one with even half of a functioning brain saw the Ravens scoring 50 either.
  4. This is actually an interesting thought. There are many in the “media” who still aren’t quite ready to give Josh credit for what he has done this season. I do think it’s possible to praise both Josh AND Daboll but I have heard/seen a lot of “look how easy Daboll is making it for Allen with these concepts” sort of talk.
  5. Don’t forget they know the locker rooms better at Arrowhead as well. Huge edge.
  6. I haven’t been predicting scores this postseason but I’ve been accurate with how I felt both games would go...the Colts being tougher than many expected and the Ravens less so. I take nothing from the W6 matchup. The Bills are significantly healthier and both teams have evolved since that game. My gut tells me Josh Allen makes a huge statement to the rest of the league that he is here to stay. I’m looking at four total TDs from Josh (two rushing, two passing) and a couple of FGs from Bass, so I’m expecting 34 points from the Bills if they don’t score on D or ST. The big question, obviously, is whether they can hold Mahomes and KC below that number. Nobody has put up 30 points against the Bills since W10 and I don’t expect that to change. Mahomes’ toe, and not his dubious concussion, is the key injury factor in this game. The Bills won’t “stop” the Chiefs’ offense but they will contain the explosive plays and (for the most part) force FGs. I caution fans not to take too much from the opening possession, and it wouldn’t surprise me if KC scores a TD on their first drive as Reid scripts the early part of games and they will be ready. My “bold” prediction? Bills fans won’t have to sweat out a last second Mahomes possession to celebrate a 5th AFC Championship. GO BILLS!!!
  7. If Belichick wants to continue coaching and ever win again he knows he needs a QB; they have to draft one. I think the Fish are committed to getting Tua some weapons and seeing how that plays out. The Jets are a mystery — I could see them trying to salvage Darnold but it’s a tough call. Probably depends upon how much they like the guy they have ranked 2nd to Lawrence.
  8. Wrong. They know that Bills Mafia will go ape-s-h-i-t over this kind of stuff, just like you and others are confirming. They get more clicks/follows from this and probably actually believe only a fraction of what they say. It's scripted -- when are fans going to realize it? Then again, professional wrestling continues to enjoy popularity, and I'll never understand that either.
  9. Until it wasn't. The Bickering Bills showed up early in '89, then got it together in time to make the playoffs before Ronnie Harmon was on the take and blew the WC game at Cleveland.
  10. Well, technically the '66 game was the AFL Championship as the AFC was not in existence. The Bills are 2-1 in the AFL Championship and 4-1 in the AFC Championship.
  11. Not sure but he plays like his hair is on fire.
  12. Your “talk to post” routine or whatever is going on there is always good for entertainment value.
  13. i can see the eyes rolling on veteran players already. Jesus. This guy is a creton. Glad we don’t play the Lions next year; don’t need anyone taking shots at Josh’s knees.
  14. I’m pretty certain those uniforms were considered one of their “standard” uniforms that season, not an alternate. They wore those more than three times during the year. Edit: Yup, found it. Those were standard.
  15. Well, for what it’s worth, Vic Carucci apparently agrees with me that this question has already been answered.
  16. i don’t know that being old fashioned has anything to do with it...those are two best looks to me as well, although I don’t mind the all whites.
  17. And in other news, Generalissimo Francisco Franco is still dead.
  18. Agreed, she seems like a reasonably grounded person and (all puns aside) I would love to play a round with her.
  19. Wow, she’s pretty awesome. Just subscribed to her channel and listened to a Q&A. Really like her!
  20. To his credit, it took one to know one.
  21. Lo and behold, another person we find out is capable of learning, growth and development! It’s like coaches and players can actually evolve and aren’t the same from Day One until they retire! (can you tell this is a huge fan and media peeve of mine?)
  22. Man, you got that right. It’s amazing. I mean, his greatest claim to fame is reaching one AFC Championship game (and blowing it) and winning the Pinstripe Bowl. Oh well. I don’t despise Saint Doug any more; it’s easy to forgive and forget now that we are where we are.
  23. Because the question can also be answered no.
