Brown is only worth keeping if he has his explosiveness. Without it he's JAG.

To quote the late great Vince Lombardi: "What the hell is going on out there?"

Anybody think Kelce might want more money too? Having really good players you need to pay is a good problem to have. Beane will figure it out.

This is dead on. I see so many parallels between this team and the '88 team. I just hope we skip '89 and go straight to '90.

After seeing what Diggs brought to this team it is obvious he is “underpaid” with respect to the top WRs in the league. If I am Beane I don’t wait for Diggs to get “upset” about his deal, I go to him and say “we know you outperformed your contract and we are working through things to make our roster better next year so be patient with us, we’ll take care of you” or something to that effect. Get out in front of it. And yes, I absolutely believe Josh Allen wants to be in Buffalo for his entire career and will be willing to accept a fair but team-friendly contract.

And here’s the other thing — Beane and the Bills aren’t going to stand pat! It’s as if folks think the Bills will stand still while everyone else tries to improve. You don’t think Beane and McD are keenly aware of where they need to get better? And they’re going to have one of the top 3 QB/WR combos in the league for at least the next 3-4 years. Oh, and Josh Allen is only going to get better the more experience he has.

You still have to draft WELL, because... ...draft picks are a crap shoot. See 1 and 2 above. The AFC East is worried about the Bills. Not the other way around.

I’m not going to lie...last night was crushing. Didn’t expect that sort of performance by the team. After a restless night of sleep, however, perspective is beginning to settle in. This was a magical season in which the Bills became an AFC power and learned they have a star at the most important position on the roster. The ride is only beginning. Since people typically want to compare teams and eras, this may wind up being “our” version of the ‘88 Bills. Got to the AFC Championship a bit early but still had room to grow. I just hope we skip ‘89. Thanks for the season and GO BILLS!

That’s not his dad, it’s a random Bills fan who took the pic with his mom.

Well, all of the BBFS victims “fearing” Sammy would destroy us can breathe a sigh of relief...until the next thing they figure out to worry about.

I guess Matt doesn’t have a taste for kneecaps.

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.

True, but literally no one with even half of a functioning brain saw the Ravens scoring 50 either.

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.

Don’t forget they know the locker rooms better at Arrowhead as well. Huge edge.

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!!!

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.

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.

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.

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.

Not sure but he plays like his hair is on fire.

Your “talk to post” routine or whatever is going on there is always good for entertainment value.

Oh for crissake, enough with the BBFS already.

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.

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.
