As scary as the Bengals are (and they absolutely are), Beane and McDermott have constructed our D specifically to stop teams like this that are so pass heavy. Our back 7 have actually played awesome against the pass pretty consistently this year and with Shaq at MLB, I like our defensive chances against Burrow.

You disagree?

Sorry I don't agree. Buffalo having any path that doesn't include either the Ravens or Chiefs is the best possible path. And yes. I watched the Houston game... I'll take my chances with JA17 getting a 2nd chance against Houston over Lamar or Mahomes. Gimme the easiest path please.

I'm not holding out hope for the division, but if the Bills were to win out and if the Patriots were to lose either of their last 2 games to the Dolphins or Jets, the Bills would win the division as the tiebreaker would end up being Conference record where the Bills would have the edge with 3 losses to the Patriots 4. The Pats have been gifted about the easiest set of circumstances given scheduling and fluky events like Chase getting suspended for their game that they still almost lost. Maybe the ball keeps bouncing their way, but Miami and the Jets to close the season won't necessarily be gimmes as divisional games. That said, no game for Buffalo is a gimme either, so they need to take care of their own business.

Not only that, but the Bengals get a mini-bye week playing us since they're coming off a Thanksgiving game. Better not overlook them. Our next 2 opponents have +9 days of extra rest with the Pats playing on MNF instead of Sunday.

Actually I think our pass D has been mostly great all year and it's really because of the way Beane and McDermott have built the team with such a focus on the back 7. It's part of the reason I feel more confident playing teams like the Bengals and Chiefs than I do the Ravens since our run D has been a huge issue.

Yes. Of course they can. With Josh Allen anything is possible. And I would argue our remaining schedule is pretty easy, all things considered.

Honestly... he was forced into it. Why didn't he adjust halfway through the Houston game?

Did we have an extra roster spot for both Grable and Davis? I know we put Samuel on IR but where is the other spot coming from? Wonder if the Latu elevation means Kincaid isn't playing. At best the plan is to see how he looks in warmups and decide then.

Seems you're a bit sensitive. Read through your own thread. Pretty clear this "satire" was lost on a whole bunch of other posters. Friendly advice: If you're aiming for satire, don't insert so many qualifiers. Hope you had a nice Thanksgiving

Are you saying that you were just trolling everyone like a jackass in your OP?

I'm probably considered one of the biggest optimists on this board and even I think thought this was pretty far-fetched. That said, I also believe this signing could be more impactful than the Amari Cooper signing was last year. And before everyone just dogs on that statement, Cooper's presence on the field really did make a difference last year even if he didn't statistically impact the team much. What I truly hope is that it's Shakir, Gabe and Cooks as our top 3 WRs. Those are the guys I think Josh would naturally trust the most. And then who knows???? If we can get a handful of games of Lofton-like production out of him that would be incredible.

I actually think Gabe Davis is the best WR on the Bills right now and he isn't even on our current 53 man roster.

Did anyone watch Josh's PC from today? Cooks is playing and I think he's going to be a decent part of our game plan. Josh complemented him on his high football IQ and kinda smirked when he said he's already learned most of the playbook. The playbook comment caught my attention because the way he said it he seemed pretty genuinely pleased by how much he knows already. Others can comment on it, but it didn't seem like the standard throwaway comment he might make in a PC.
