    #1 in what? I still have them as 3rd in their Division.

    Nah.  I just moved them up dramatically on my board.  Wow!  
    whoever emerges from the West … is the team forged in fire!

    and with the broncos defense and untapped WR talent.  Hot damn!

    Meh, maybe. I'm not sure how favourable a scheduling break it was being sent to Kansas City with the season on the line in 2017 after the Chargers debacle. 

    I was looking more at 2021.

     

    You lose to Jags but then get a nice rebound against Mike White/Jets

     

    You lose to Colts, but then get a nice rebound against Trevor Simian/Saints

     

    and then the 2 game losing streak was snapped playing against Panthers with a backup QB and all the starting WRs/starting RB out.

     

    you play who you play…that’s fair.  I just think every time they had a tough loss they had a very easy game to follow up.


    which helped avoid any sort of 3-4 game losing streak and potential internal strife spilling out into the media.

    It is one of the things Sean has done very well though in his time here is get people back together after incidents that had the potential to drive them apart. I think that is a skill in itself. Some people have it, some people don't. I don't disagree that is is a challenge for him again at the start of next year coming out of the playoff loss. I'd just expect him to succeed at it. 


    Favorable breaks in scheduling have also played a key role at keeping the team together and allowing bounce backs.

     

    How many times did they write “Bills Get Right” after a loss by beating a completley decimated team.

    Boy, you love u some QBs. First Kyler, not A A Ron. The two biggest douche bags in the NFL


    Nah.

    Rodgers is the man.

     

    there just comes a point…when you just can’t here the “player talk” and I begin to appreciate so much more the authentic truth that comes from these athletes.

     

    even if it is in complete contrast with the “everything for the team.” Player robot speak so many of our athletes are brainwashed into.

    I don't like the guy, but don't really see too much of a problem with this.  He's just trying to get his side of the story out there and hopefully take some of the fanbase's heat off him.  I know business is business, but who knows how the Arizona front office operates or if they've jerked him around, broken promises, etc.  Looks like many just view it as a selfish gesture, so it looks like it may have backfired?

    Hit Nail on the Head.  You could have posted this on page one and saved all the nonsense about how he isn’t a good player.

     

    Bottom line…he’s not a “likeable” athlete to many Fans because he doesn’t play the “game”.  Or that his attitude goes more towards shattering the illusion that this is all a business and not a sport.  (I have a few friends that just can’t stand Murray or mayfield for these reasons).

     

    And in Buffalo I’m sure there are a few other reasons to not like him from many.

    He threw for fewer yards and TD's than the previous season. He had 400 rushing yards versus 800 the previous year. 5 rushing TD's versus 12 the previous year. His sack percentage was higher. QBR went down (though QBR is a stupid stat anyway).

     

    He actually had a tremendous start to the season. Those numbers prop up his stats. Starting in week 7 he went downhill. This was reflected in their win-loss record with them only winning 2 games that he started from week 7 on. He missed 3 games due to injury.

     

    Clear regression statistically from the season prior, and a clear regression in 2021 from how he played early to how he played later in the season, all coming to a head with a horrendous performance in the playoffs.

     

    Cardinals have zero playoff wins with Murray. They have one winning season. Murray has accomplished little to warrant holding his team for hostage.

    I can’t believe I have to do this.  But okay…

     

    2019 - 64% 3722 yards 87.4 Rating 5 Wins

     

    2020 - 67% 3971 yards 94.3 rating 8 Wins

     

    2021 - 69% 3787 yards 100.6 rating 9 wins

    (and playoffs)

     

    *And please let’s not forget that Murray missed 3 games in 2021 due to injury.  He plays 1 out of 3 and he is a 4K Passer easily maybe even 4.5K If he plays them all*
     

    So…all the major numbers have improved, and Arizona as a team has gone from:

     

    3-13(1st overall pick) to 5-10 to 8-8 to 9-5(playoffs) under Murray.

     

    But you “see” regression.

     

    I’m not sure where to go from that.

  7. Most Bills fans won’t think they are a “threat” due to the head to head games being so lopsided.

     

    But the Dolphins…they really aren’t that far back off buffalo when you look at overall standings

     

    finished 3 games back in 2020

    finished 2 games back in 2021

     

    Now if dolphins bring in say Adams, Ridley, Goodwin via trade, free agency…and get a split with Buffalo…

     

    They are right there for division.

    Why does Rodgers to Denver not scare you? Denver is stacked except for QB. Perhaps it’s because Denver plays KC and Chargers? 
     

    I feel like if Rodgers goes to Denver they are Super Bowl contenders easily. 


    I would agree.  Also, it has been speculated that Rodgers going to Denver is the one thing that would knock the Bills out of playing the Rams in the Season Opener.

    Not much impact on the Bills though.  Denver will have to slug it out every year with KC, LA and Vegas, the "weak" one would be Vegas.  KC has Hackett, picks and plenty of $ so who knows as well as owner uncertainty.  Rodgers would be taking a massive gamble there.  I would almost welcome Rodgers to Denver as a Bills fan.


    what’s most concerning … is in a Bills v Broncos matchup with Rodgers…

     

    It’s Leslie Fraizer v Aaron Rodgers

     

    I mean…Aaron Rodgers could go to the HOF alone based on his numbers against Leslie Fraizer Defenses.

     

    but your right … Broncos would have to slug it out against Chiefs and Chargers…not sure that is the worst thing in the world for any of those teams.

     

    You might want to play harder teams that would make you better than skating thru the regular season on cupcake schedules.

    Thought it might be fun to put out some scenarios that would make AFC more competitive than it already is.

     

    Rodgers to Denver doesn't worry me much.

     

    Russell Wilson to Pittsburgh or Cleveland would really upset the AFC. Adding a top 5 QB to either team would make them legit SB contenders. 


    That move alone is basically a West Domination for the next 4-5 seasons.

     

    Not sure another move comes close to Rodgers in Denver.

    Come on.  Burrow and Herbert are on another level from Derek Carr.  They are clearly on tier 2, just behind Allen.  

     

    Dak I agree with.  He's got a cupboard full of toys to play with.  He should be dominant.  He's a tier 3 dude with Carr, Tannehill, Kyler Murray etc.

     

    Here's how I see them:

    Tier 1A:  Mahomes and Rodgers

    Tier 1B: Josh Allen

    Tier 2A: Herbert and Burrow

    Tier 2B: Stafford and Jackson

    Russell Wilson???

    Tier 3: Tanny, Murray, Dak, Carr, Cousins

    Tier 4: Matt Ryan, Mac Jones

    Tier 5: Lawrence, Hurts

    Tier 6: journeyman scrubs like Heinicke, Wentz, and raw 1st rounders like Fields and Lance

     


    I kinda want to throw Watson in at 

     

    1A.5

  12. I wouldn’t say Burrow is the Best QB in the AFC right now.

     

    He is definitely in terms of “Being On Schedule” in the best shape.

     

    He’s only played 30 games (with playoffs).  That is less than 2 seasons.

     

    That has him really ahead of all the AFC, right now.

     

    as for Kyle Brandts ‘burrow did not have a transcendent year’

     

    Ehhhh…he sort of did.

     

    We are talking about a QB who only played 16 Games and went for a 70+ completion %, 30+ TDs, Rating of 108.3 (2nd in League) and 4600 yards passing (which made him throwing for the most yards of a QB who didn’t get to play 17 games and was only behind 5 other QBs overall.

    and then he did take the Bengals to the Super Bowl.

    LA fans 5 minutes after the game ended: cool! toss it on the pile of titles! What else is on?

     

    Meanwhile, here in WNY we would remember it for the rest of our lives. You'd see people 20 years from now wearing the Bills SB champion shirts from this SB.

     

    I know I would be crying like a blubbering seal with a mixture of sheer joy, disbelief, and more sheer joy. I'll bet Rams fans high fived each other and went to the beach or something. 


    Yeah, but…I feel the Rams Fans approach is the much healthier approach to take with entertainment.

     

    🤷

    In Flores first year he called an all out blitz against the Steelers on a 3rd and 20 at midfield with 20 sec left in the first half.  A lot people said that was proof that Flores was tanking.  Maybe he got paid for it too.


    That’s not really the narrative Flores is hoping to create with this though.

     

    He doesn’t want league, media and fans going back to every single play that didn’t work over 3 seasons and say “see there’s proof he was tanking”

     

    If that is what we are going to do someone go check The Bills D and Special Teams coordinators bank accounts.

     

    Flora’s wants the narrative to be I was bribed and I refused and I was then treated differently and fired for it.
