Eagle House on Main has good grub and TV in the bar.

And his numbers are actually better so far this year than last. Saying Mahomes is nothing special is ludicrous.

Yep, a proven, young player is better than a draft pick at WR. The time for a drafted WR was last year or earlier.

Hey, that’s what point spreads are for. Have to tempt $$$ on both sides. 17 is huge for an NFL game.

Okay Phil, perhaps you need to add “ Bills “ to the poll to satisfy the masters of the obvious on the board. Any team is it’s own biggest threat because they actually have to win their own games, but whatever floats boats.

While I empathize with FANS who may feel some level of BBFS, that poster is a troll and not a fan ( I have it blocked fwiw, your mileage may vary) that only posts statements critical of the Bills, their players and their organization. As for actual fans of the team, they need to realize that as difficult as most of the seasons were from 2000 thru 2016 were, they are the past. Most everyone in a key position with the team has been replaced. Those seasons have zero impact on the current team, Head Coach, players, and FO. Some fans may be gun shy, and I get it, but let it go. Any team in the league is potentially it’s own worst enemy. It’s a circular argument intended to take a legitimate thread in a completely different direction. Believe what you will, but this Bills organization is doing a lot of things ( refreshingly ) right and some optimism is warranted because they’ve earned it. As an aside to Jobot- obviously NE and KC are favored to win divisions and will likely claim playoff spots.

Not many teams in NFL history have managed a playoff berth after an 0-4 start. The Jets are very likely to be 1-5 after their next game. Unless they manage to beat NE, they’d best hold off on their playoff celebration. As for the Bills , if they somehow lost to the Dolphins ( I don’t care how) gloom and doom would be 100% warranted here. I don’t think it will happen, but what would you expect after what would amount to a massive organizational failure ? Sunshine and rainbows ?

Actually, it’s not. One could say that about virtually any team and end the discussion. It’s a troll answer and this poster should not be encouraged on the board.

That’s a purely subjective argument. Most would put Pats and Chiefs as 1 and 2 , and I still would as well. While Watson is excellent and the best player on that team, it’s not clear that HOU would beat the Bills head to head. In fact, last year’s edition of the Bills ( much worse) seemed well on their way to upsetting the Texans at home until Allen was injured. Pickerman came in and we all know the rest. Anyway, it’s about matchups and I think if HOU and BUF played each other the home team would be a slight favorite.

Is this legit ? Hate those unis ...

And the owners could have built a new stadium in SD for the same or less than they paid to the NFL as a relocation fee. Strange situation.

The Bills haven’t been playing run first football this year. The lack of scoring hasn’t come from conservative playcalling. It’s been turnovers and poor execution.

It’s a balancing act. You’re winning on the fly with a young QB that’s still learning and making mistakes sometimes. McD has a top defense and he’s facing a low powered offense. He’s not going to be tempted to give that team any short fields or cheap points. Point differential can come into play at the end, but it’s way down the line. Win the game, and don’t give them anything easy.

Way different scenario.....

Anthony Lynn kicking a FG down 24 in the 4th quarter, lol...

Lol... so a tipping an INT to your defensive teammate is now a “ less than “ play ? I suppose you must beat all opponents by 2/or more TDs to be a valid win ? What a crock....

Now wins are worrying ? Four wins and a hard fought loss to the SB champs. News flash: a lot of teams in the NFL are bad, so how many good teams will they face ? I’m pretty sure the Bills can still be “ for real” if they don’t go 8-1. Who cares if Darnold passed for 2 TDs and 300, but the Jets barely eked out a 2 point win ? Allen has won by more points with less yards. Doesn’t mean a thing.

That’s what Lynn deserves for playing for the FG there. Down by 21 , ridiculous

Yep, old fashioned physical football. O lineman love run blocking anyway, so it’s a perfect plan for them with a 3rd string QB.

Agreed. I’ve mentioned it as a loss and gotten lol responses but whatever. I think it will be very difficult to win and a very tough venue that the Bills have had little success in historically.

Backward pass all the way

It’s LA. Probably looks like a home game for every road team... Probably. I’d prefer to see PIT lose, as we play them and I don’t want them hanging around even remotely at that point. LAC don’t seem very good right now either though. Probably a push.

Big market team vs a team with a rabid fan base and national cred. They don’t care about the current stadium. Huge relocation fee

I’d question the character of anyone in a duck calling competition. That’s just me , though.

I saw on SNF pregame that Flores says Rosen will still be the starting QB going forward....must preserve the tank!
