    What’s the reason to have eagles and chiefs swap 

    Most likely reason is Eagles were afraid someone else was going to trade for the Chief's spot and take the LB so they gave away a 5th just to be sure no one came in and sniped their guy.

    As much as I would enjoy watching the Chiefs lose four straight Superbowls, I'd much rather see Buffalo win one in the next three years.

    I meant go to four consecutively, not necessarily losing four consecutively. And of course if the Chiefs did get to a fourth in a row, Theirs would be better than Ours because they won at least two. And honestly, they would be right I think.

    Actually, given the how lethal Josh is when rolling out to his right, I think Brown may be playing a premium position at RT - a situation unique to the Bills.

     

    It seems like Brown realized he could over commit to any kind of rush move to outside by the edge rusher because if he does get beat on a reverse or spin to an inside move, Allen recognizes the defense has lost contain and will drift or flat out break the pocket to his right and he is deadly outside the pocket on that side.

     

    So Brown now has a real advantage on any outside move and can get away with getting beat inside to the extent that it almost seems like they are baiting defenders into taking an inside rush so Allen can do his thing. Maybe this was happening before but I really noticed it this year.

  4. At this point, I wouldn't be surprised if somehow the Chiefs get a terrible call against them next week. Not because someone is making a conscious decision to "script" it that way but because the humans that referees the game have to hear this stuff and maybe, just maybe, those 50/50 calls don't go the "face of the league's" way by default.

    Honestly, I see that as a professional act of quality officiating. Admittedly, I am imagining the conversation. But, a respectful notification, "Hey 17, you can't behave like that. Tone it down, or you'll be penalized." That would be a case of the referee respecting the players and trying not to impact the game.

     

    I have always assumed the refs talked to players between plays when they were pushing the limit so to speak, a warning that next time there could be a flag. Haven't been to enough live games to know what happens between media timeouts to know that a sideline conversation was so unusual but the consensus seems to be it is.

    Are the Bills playing today?  Watching the CBS pregame and it’s all Broncos.
     

    This is unfair, the Broncos are so great. Do we even have a chance today? 
     

     

    Reality show scripting... whoever gets all the face time in the first episode always gets eliminated. Here you go, these guys are great... oh wait they are gone."

    I feel like every db that has left the team has completely fallen apart haha so I still think it’s true. Bad game last weekend though for sure for a few of them  

     

    I love the Reddit posts from fans of teams our guys end up on asking ‘wtf is up with this guy he can’t play’ 😂

    And for Rasul Douglas it seems to have been the reverse. Traded on the cheap by GB and now a solid starter.

  8. I just wish people would put Barkley's season in the proper perspective. It has been an amazing year and while he may get the most yards ever in a single season, his 124.8 YPG puts him just outside the top 10 in single game average over a season.

     

    If he averages 150 yards a game the rest of the way (4 games) he would average 130.8 YPG.

     

    If he averages 200 yards a game the rest of the way (4 games) he still wouldn't reach O.J.'s average. Barkley would still be at "only" 142.5 YPG.

    I came here to post that need Saquon to have a couple bad weeks to stop the Saquon MVP nonsense.  Go Panthers D!

     

    I keep hearing "Most yards in a season." If Barkley has 250 yards this week and 250 yards next week he would have 4 yards less than O.J. after 14 games. Certainly a Roger Maris style asterisk would be warranted.

    I have teams I definitely do not want to play for personal reasons. A Bills/Eagles Super Bowl would be rough in the family for example. A nice thing about a Bills/Lions Super Bowl is that, minimally, some well deserving fan base achieved their dreams.

     

    If push comes to shove I don't care and just want the Bills to win it, but if you let me choose an opponent I will.

     

    Tell me we are winning and I won't care who we play. Whether they have injuries, the refs miss a call, their stud has a bad day, the ball just bounces our way. I don't care about any of that if we winf.

     

    Tell me we lose and that is my nightmare scenario because I do not want the division I like the least to have a chance to complete the sweep. Give me the Lions any day, if we lose to them at least their fan base wins. I know there are some don't want a Lombardiless franchise to get one before us but I would rather that than another loss to the NFC East.

    Adams, Wilson and Rodgers got going in the 2nd half.  Jets are far from over.  They have a very easy schedule coming up.

     

    I don't know why anyone was rooting for them tonight.

    My thoughts were if the Jets can leap us for the division, we were going nowhere. If we both get in, I would choose to face the Jets over the Texans in the playoffs, all thinks being equal with health.

     

    If I had any fear the Jets could pass this Bills team I would never pull for the division opponent but I don't think they have any chance to jump us.

    No I was dead wrong. I can admit it. I called him Devin Funchess 2.0 and was miserable during the draft.

     

    He's clearly much more than that. The best part about hating a Bills move, is if I'm wrong and he plays great, it's still a win!

    I've never minded some folks' worried or disappointed takes, like someone said before it is about opinions. I do get annoyed when people refuse to do what you do and that is accept being wrong and be happy they you wrong in the direction that benefits our Bills. I've had plenty of the "I am so glad to have been wrong about <insert name here>" opinions.
