    The 2023 Chiefs were better than the 2023 Bills by a tiny bit.

     

    If they played 10 games, they probably split 5-5.

    …and that tiny bit is the difference between holding the Lombardi trophy today, and looking at a poster of it in the fieldhouse during the season.

    Anyone watch the trenches last night?....ya i know, everyone wants to watch the "pretty" plays, the QB, the RB's, the WR's, but did anyone actually watch the trenches? I did and i'll tell ya some things i noticed....

     

    1) When the Niners were dictating and dominating the trench on O in the first half, they pressured Mahomo keeping him off-balance and forcing him to abandon some of KC's playcalling. They forced some sacks and kept Mahomo off his rhythm. KC could not generate anything on O in the 1st half. CM was steam rolling the KC D line, slicing up yardage.

     

    2) The 2nd half was completely different. KC owned the trenches, which gave Mahomo the confidence to make plays. It also didn't help that the Niners abandoned the run, however, the KC D was stout in the 2nd half and limited CM to very little yardage.

     

    My point being, we all know the game is won and lost in the trenches. We all know that if you can pressure Mahomo, you can throw him off his game. When was the last time we completely dominated the trenches in any game?.....Dallas, and that's about it. We moved the ball at will cause it all started in the trenches.

    My other point being, our FO keeps telling the fans that they are building a team to compete with KC....and yes we can compete in the regular season, but in the playoffs, they own us. They outright own us. Did we get any pressure on Mahomo last game we played them?....nope, and he had all day to feel comfortable in the pocket and pick us apart.

     

    If we can't own the trenches, we can't own the Lombardi.....simple as that.

    Mahomo?  Good one.  Let us know how the rest of your 7th grade year works out.

    3 peat never been done...perhaps the Bills hoist the Lombardi next year.  If they do I'll be rooting for the Bills and Josh Allen all the way.

     

    Also...I am not a poster at Chiefs planet...that place is awful.  It's mostly Chiefs"fans" who are the worst of the bunch...they sort that fit the stereotype....and the type you don't find many of at the games because they can't afford the tickets.  I hope your impression of Chiefs fans isn't just based on Chiefs planet.

     

    Thanks for the congrats.  Hope to see you guys again next post season.  Allen is going to get one someday....too good not to.

  4. If Diggs is trying to remove himself from the Bills via bad behavior, the normal response would be F that, the inmates don’t run the asylum.  
     

    That being said, if his behavior is seriously impacting Allen’s play, at some point do they say “ENOUGH”, dead cap hit be damned, and waive him?

    I’ve gone through a handful today as well. I would probably stack them up this way (where I’d be comfortable taking them in parentheses)

    1. Brian Thomas (Mid 1st)
    2. Troy Franklin (1st)
    3. Keon Coleman (1st)
    4. Ladd McConkey (Early 2nd)
    5. Roman Wilson (Mid 2nd)
    6. Brenden Rice (2nd)
    7. Adonai Mitchell (Late 2/Early 3)
    8. Xavier Legette (3rd)
    9. Jamari Thrash (Day 3)
    10. Tez Walker (Day 3)
    11. Xavier Worthy (Late Day 3/UDFA)

    You really think Worthy is a late Day 3/UDFA?   From the one I have seen, most have Worthy as anywhere from mid 1st round to 2nd round?

    I think the Bills will need to go WR in rounds 1 and 3, I hope Brian Thomas Jr falls to 28 or the Bills don't need to do a massive trade-up for him. The Bills are not going to get Harrision Jr, who will go top 5 and highly unlikely they get Odunze who will go top 10 or just outside the top 10. Keon Colemen is also unlikely to be attainable as he is likely going to go in the mid to late teens. Thomas Jr, however being the 4th WR off the board (thus far although a lot can change) is a possibility that he can last until pick 23-25 where the Bills can make a decent trade-up to get him at a reasonable cost. 

     

    There are other options besides Thomas Jr that are solid too but thus far he is who I would like to see. 

    Malik Nabers says hello from the top of the 1st round.

    FA is looked at wrongly by too many. sometiems i fear i team does it wrong, too.

     

    the draft builds a team. the free agency fills holes you can't close.

     

    free agents should not be brought in to fix this team.

    I agree, but FA comes first, and even a couple of bargain basement FA signings could change draft needs.

    Hmmm. That contradicts what I have heard elsewhere. My understanding is when Bill flew in for that weekend interview the Falcons were prepared to offer him the job if things progressed well. They didn't. In fact they fell apart quickly. Disagreements went wider than just personnel control. They also went to more general organisational structure and coaching staff. Bill Belichick doesn't just want to coach a team. He wants to run an organisation. And he wasn't going to work for an owner unwilling to give that control.

    Obviously, the clout BB wielded in NE, is going to make it tough for him to revert back to a HC with some, but not much power over the roster.  

     

    Either he realizes and accepts this, or he is done as an NFL HC.

    SF has a better coach. Better offensive players around Purdy with CMC, Deebo, Kittle. Better defense. The Lions got to them early, but SF adjusted and controlled the game late. Bottom line Josh has to be the man for the Bills to win. Purdy doesn't despite the fact that he has played well. 

    Doesn’t mean he should not be paid among the elite…$40-50 mil.  

  10. Too often here, you read that his tantrums/outbursts are just because he wants to win.  I say BS.   The majority of players are driven by a SB win, yet don’t behave like a bratty teenager. 
     

    Diggs is just a crybaby diva.  
     

    Brutally honest take…I can’t wait for both Diggs & Non to be former Bills.
