They made excuses and whined endlessly. We should be good.
But that hasn't worked for us in each of the last 60 or so seasons.

What did the 2004 Red Sox and 2017 Cubs do?
That's what we need.

Wait, the owners who have billions invested, don’t care about the future, but the fans (who can walk away at any point and have invested far less actual capital) do? 🤔I mean, I dislike the Euro games, but pretty sure the owners want long term success more than fans do. For like a trillion reasons…
Correct.
In no way, shape or form are London games beneficial to the long-term quality of the sport.
The original goal was to expand into Europe, adding a London NFL team. Because they saw a financial opportunity. Not because it's good for the NFL. Those two things are not the same.
It would be completely absurd to have an NFL team in Europe. Because having a team that far away would put that team and the teams in their division at such a competitive disadvantage.
It's been 16 years and they still can't figure out how to do it - because it's a stupid idea. Even if they all made another billion dollars from it. The owners would benefit - but no one else would.

Understood, but really turns me off as a fan.
Oh yeah, that's completely understandable because owners don't care about the health of the game - whereas we fans do.
I'm an MLB fan and I've watched the sport of baseball slowly lose its status as "America's pastime" and lose fans on a consistent basis for the last 35 years because the owners of the teams only care about short-term profit and don't want to concern themselves with what's actually best for the sport. And those two things are not aligned, more often than not.

This POS is all about the owners and could care less about the players or fans.
Well to be honest that's his job. He's paid to make decisions that lead to the happiness of the owners (short-term cash flow), not the happiness of players and fans (long-term health of the game).

What is the NFL's obsession with London?
NFL's relationship with London now has a driver's license. Enough already. You're not going to have an NFL team in London so just stop it. Cripes.

So now posters are blaming Allen for the dropped passes, O line holding calls and suspect play calling? Please.
You want to know what the "Josh Allen Experience" is? It's winning football, it's three straight Division titles and four straight trips to the playoffs. It's being listed as a legit Super Bowl contender for four years in a row. Without the "Josh Allen Experience" the last 5 seasons would have been more of the drought years.
What part of "although I don't blame him much for this one" did you not comprehend?

And was the leading rusher for Buffalo again with checks notes 23 yards.

Yeah depending on a strong run game week in and week out in 2023 is like a basketball team depending on the three point field goals. Eventually it's going to go cold and you're going home with an L.

How do we look so great at times then just so lost? It’s like contagious in 1 direction or the other. When it’s good, it’s great and when it’s bad it’s pitiful
That's been the Buffalo Bills offense since 2019. Some call it "The Josh Allen Experience". Although I don't blame him much for this one...which I guess means it's contagious and the other players and even the offensive coordinator have become infected even when he himself is not showing symptoms.

That's just embarrassing for Claypool. His value is close to nothing.

Larry Wilson played with 2 broken wrists and caught an interception with casts on. Not even broken bone for groot. Kind of disappointed.
The more the NFL increases the number of games, the less valuable each game becomes.
We'll continue seeing players receive a week off here and there. Like Poyer last week. Just the way it is.

The most inexplicable game of that era was the Raiders game. I think if we won it, we controlled our own destiny. We had that great defense that shut down a prime GB team.
and we just laid a complete egg. Sucks just thinking about it.
Great defense but just not nearly enough offense to have any realistic chance of making a run of any sort.

The Doug Marrone Era was such a strange time.

The video is even better. The shade of red in his face is quite impressive.

They're running the table, you guys.
All the way through 2/11/24.

Really interesting comment from a quarterback. You wonder if this will help strengthen his leadership role and get the players behind him.
Or will it rub his teammates the wrong way and cause a rift?
Could go either way.

Ok improvement here. No separation but at least he’s catching the football when open.
His drop stopped a drive in its tracks (when it was still a game) and led to Josh's only interception.
Stop treating this guy with kid's gloves.

Watching football on TV anymore is like walking into a house of mirrors. Every week it's labyrinth of networks and streams to wade through to figure how to watch any particular game.
Try being an MLB fan. The worst.

I'm not talking about trading G Davis, it's about us trading to get an upgrade at WR2. We would keep G Davis through this year and then let him hit the open market.
Gotcha. Considering the two TE sets in the offense this year I don't see us trading for another WR especially when Davis remains on the roster. Gonna ride with what we have.

Here's what I think/hope:
The FO realizes Gabe Davis is not having a good year- last year here.
The FO anticipated this and does not wait. In-season trade. We may use our first (Kupp) or second (M Evans) on a multi-year contract (going beyond Diggs' contract length for that insurance).
They're not trading a captain. No matter how many drops he has.

Happened to turn on GMFB (which is usually harmless enough other than McCourty who is a Pats/Fins homer) - the praise for the Dolphins was nauseating.
And yet, a part of me loves it because it's only Week 4.
Let Buffalo fly under the radar.

Lol so is it a real viral ad campaign I’m still confused. If it is it’s brilliant.
