Sammy Watkins' Rib

That’s not what I see at all. He is clearly running into the field killing the clock and blowing the whistle while the ball is loose. That is an inadvertent whistle. Not sure on the NFL rule but in HS you have to replay the down regardless of what happens after the inadvertent whistle.

12-5 frauds lol would you not be happy beating a 12-5 team??? I’m not going to sugar coat the win as if we beat a great 11-1 team. at the same time we beat a good team despite their flaws and we should all be happy about that. Plus it is always fun to give the last unbeaten team their first loss of the year whether it is the Chiefs or any other team. how hard is that to understand? I will wait for your shine box response. Although this argument has obviously run it’s course. Bills are 4-2 in the last six games against them. The only two that were not one score games were won by the bills. One of which was a blow out. so if it is not close the Bills likely win. If it is close it’s a coin flip game. That’s what the last six games tell us.

What point do you think you are making here? Are they a fraudulent 11-1 team? 100% percent. Trying to argue differently is not being objective. Are they still a good football team whose floor is around 12-5? 100% I mean it doesn't exactly make me feel any better that they are 11-1 frauds that still have the best chance of landing the 1 seed if the Bills don't pull out the upset in Detroit in a couple of weeks.

Oh you were most certainly dunked on. I'll forgive you for not meaning to quote me in that post. Carry on.

12-5 is not a mediocre football team which is how I would describe their current talent level and level of play. They've something like 9-0 in one score games this year. I'm not saying they should be 4-5 in those one score games and have 5 losses now. But 6-3 or 7-2 and on pace for a 5 loss season would be closer to the law of averages for a good team. Who would you rather not face in the playoffs if you had a choice, the 1 loss Chiefs or the 4 loss Ravens?

Most of us are talking them down from the best team in the league or the best team in the Mahomes era which right now are both titles they are on pace to claim with a 16-1 or 15-2 record. Realistically they look like 12-5 type team which is still a good team. Division title winning team in most cases. Nobody is talking them down to a 8-9 level team.

The Chiefs vs. Dolphins game last year was not a dog fight. Plenty of playoff games are never dog fights. Bills vs. Pats WC. Bills vs. Steelers WC

I meant NFC West. But thanks for pointing out the Bills are the only team in the entire NFL to beat a playoff team this year.

God bless you.

I was thinking about the same thing OP. The Raiders failure was more than just a botched snap. They never should have been trying to run another play outside of a FG attempt. I don't care that Carlson had already missed 3 FG's. At least two were way beyond 50 yards. Like 56 and 58 yards. Raiders had the ball at the 32. That's a 50 yard FG. 15 seconds no timeouts, you just kick the ball there. It was a coaching failure. First off, the previous snap to kill the clock should have happened at 10 seconds, not 15. KC still had a couple time outs and we saw what they can do with two timeouts and 13seconds left. Both games were monumental coaching failures with young QB's. And I think in the Raiders case, their center is a rookie.

HAHA! I mean how many other teams can claim that two days after Thanksgiving?!? You don't have to look it up. It's just the Bills. I'm actually surprised the Bucs can't claim the same. But Lions have not yet locked up a playoff spot. Admit it FireChans, you forgot the AFC West existed. I'll cut you some slack though because that entire division is down but the first and second place teams in that division have winning records and the Bills beat both.

That's different than thinking they are not a threat. They still can win every game. They have championship pedigree. Their problem right now is that they have shown that EVERY game is going to be a dogfight. No easy wins for them. Last year in the playoffs they at least got an easy win against the Dolphins. This version of the Chiefs would be in a 3 pt game vs. that same Dolphins team. Would you honestly be shocked if they lost their first playoff game? They have 11 wins and point differential below 60 I think. You are entitled to your own opinion but not your own facts.

Way they are playing, would not be shocking at all if they finished 2-3 down the stretch. 3-2 seems likely which is probably all the Bills need out of them. If they continue to have a horseshoe up their butts I guess they might finish 4-1. 5-0 seems impossible no matter how much luck they get.

Easily the worst Chiefs team of the Mahomes era and yet they are on pace to finish with the best regular season record in the Mahomes era. That's what doesn't make any sense. It feels like a given that they will lose one more game before the end of the season. But that still puts them at 15-2 and the best team record of the Mahomes era. Surpasing their 14-2 season from 2020. Frustratingly, Bills probably need them to lose two more before the end of the season. They look like a team that legit can lose every game but just don't. Their +/- has to be historically bad for a one loss team. Maybe even for a two loss team.

That was reported after my post.

agreed. If he does play, I think he has a performance similar to the disaster of a game he had against Baltimore last year. Especially if Trent Williams does not suit up again.

He is throwing a couple of 10 air yard passes in drills with the other QB’s. I still don’t think he plays. We will see.

I have a weird feeling that if these two teams do meet in the Super Bowl it will be the team that losses the regular season game that wins the Super Bowl.

I'll play along. Well as host of this make believe radio show I'd say the Lovie Smith reference is totally out of left field and doesn't have much relevance. The Lovie Smith situation referenced was what 12 years ago? And even more puzzling is the fact that it was with a completely different franchise. I'm not seeing the connection. Also, for what's it worth, Lovie has a combined record of 11 -37 in the three seasons as HC since being fired by the Bears. Smith was coach of the Bears for 9 seasons that's actually a pretty long run for a coach who never delivered a title for the team. McDermott is in his 8th year with the Bills and many have been calling for his ousting the last 2 seasons. Daboll is only in his 3rd year I believe with the Giants.

Boy, I'm not sure what I would do if I were Woody and my crack team of detectives in Tannebaum and Spielman came back to me and their #1 suggestion was selling the team to Bezos.

Honestly, if Purdy doesn’t go I think we could see a lot of key players sitting for the 49ers. Their schedule to finish is not exactly tough outside of a home game against the Lions that is still over a month out. They get healthy after this week and finish 4-1 they could win the division at 9-8 depending on tiebreakers and a loss to the Bills probably doesn’t factor into losing a tie breaker if every other team in the division has also lost to the Bills.

Rapp has been playing at an elite level IMO.

They are referencing the Bucs overtime game. That was one of the two December losses.

They do?

You had me until Dolphins win in GB.
