From the link provided:
"Mike Florio at Pro Football Talk was the first to notice and reached out to the Associated Press, who had this to say:
“AP removed an invalid ballot that was inadvertently included in its NFL Awards tabulation and adjusted its point totals to reflect 49 voters instead of 50. The correction does not impact the winners or the list of finalists distributed by AP, and the change to the vote total was communicated to AP customers and readers.”
So Josh Allen is still the MVP, but what about the missing vote? According to Florio, NBC Sports’ colleague Tony Dungy’s vote was not counted and Diante Lee of The Ringer was counted twice.
The Associated Press noted that Dungy had voted for Lamar Jackson for MVP, but Dungy denied that to Florio.
As it turns out, Josh Allen received 28 votes for NFL MVP to Lamar Jackson’s 22."
that's about as clear as a foggy day in the Appalachian Mountains in the morning.

There is absolutely no way you can look at the two stadiums and say with a straight face that there is not a large difference.
One looks like it was built in 2010 and the other looks like it was built in 2025.
Then there is the Browns new stadium - which is the ugliest stadium I think i’ve ever seen. But it does at least look like it is being built this decade.
Boy is it hideous though.
well....TN Titans looks more set back and bigger like old Highmark so yeah 2010 look. New Highmark Bills looks more stacked close in and vertical so more 2025 look. Big difference is TN roof makes it look newer and much more modern as all new builds have a roof now. So you have that right i guess. And yeah I would ask for a complete redo on Cleveland proposal.
It is very very minimalist / brutalist not to mention:
Utilitarian: Designed for usefulness rather than beauty.
Unadorned: Lacking decoration or ornamentation.
Plain: Simple and lacking detail.
Grey, gloomy, glum, washed-out: Describing a dull or unpleasant color palette.
Slapped-together: Appearing hastily or poorly constructed.
Uninviting: Lacking warmth or appeal.
Imposing: Large and overwhelming.
Unwashed, weathered, armored

well, every new stadium is enclosed or has a pavilion roof now even in perfect weather sites, so yes you are 100% absolutely correct.
the NFLworld moves on and WNY stays stuck in the mud.
Wash, Cleveland, JAX, and Chicago, all proposing domes now. 🤷♂️🤦♂️🤷♂️
and ohhhhh by the way ................even Miami outdid Bills new stadium, as they have "ALL" the seats covered for rain(direct above, but yes some can blow in) and most covered with sun shading too. Imagine that. lol

So here’s the Cook question-how is Bateman worth $12 million a year but Cook isn’t?
and yes I know they play different positions, it’s apples to oranges, etc
you answered your own question. lol
rb have had very low value for decades now. Barkley and Henry changing it a little but they are outlier freaks of nature.
2nd RB market contracts and FA contracts have been a disaster league wide for many years. Probably will never change overall.

i still remember the cold Bills Colts game in Buffalo when he opened his windows to his suit after the game and then he and his handlers handed out $100 bills to all the fans near him. Fun way to be rich lol.

Maybe Beane is playing 4D chess and trying to avoid top end talent. Look at where all the top end talent has gotten the Bengals right now. Said no to metcalf. In terms of receiving targets I really think they are tying to have the best 1-10 targets in the league and the 20th best 1-3 targets. They blow teams out by going after defenders covering targets 4-8. If they force fed Shakir like Diggs and he “broke out” for 1200 yard would we then have another top end talent player? Who cost 30 instead of 15?
yes i agree w this sentiment........ i was always hoping none of the Bills get voted all pro as then they demand more money. Reuben Brown was the poster boy for this. Avg player, had a good year, voted all pro, then went every year on rep only.

that's interesting. Beane should have received a salary discount for this. But although disappointing to say the least. They can be fresh for the last 11 games and excepted playoff push when they will be most needed.

An OUTRAGOUS ask of $1-2M more than most agree is his market value!!!
Cook can't pass block on a high passing team so is out on late game deciding drives. So his value to Bills is like 7 mill a year, if that. He is as good as gone.

I like Stafford he's a very good QB, top 10 in the league in my opinion. He will be 37 coming into this season so he's on the older side but not at an age where QB's don't produce at a very high level either. I do not understand why the Rams are very eager to move on from him. The Rams have a good opportunity to give him a 2-3 year extension on his contract and then draft a QB in round 2-3 and have an heir apparent who can sit for 2-3 years while Stafford keeps them very competitive.
Just doesn't make much sense for the Rams to move on. But any team trading for him will be getting a very good QB.
teams don't wait any longer to see if the high drafted QB is the real deal. If they do, they have wasted valuable time. They need to find out immediately if the new QB shows flashes to give them confidence in developing him for when he can be effective in year 3.(like Josh Allen for example). Bridge QB's are now a myth/legend. When they sign these so called Bridges they get benched early and the rookie goes in.

There's awareness, but women still ignore getting regular screenings. They think if there is not a family history and they're young, they don't have to worry. Some don't have health insurance (although there are free screenings available in a number of areas) or they just don't want to be bothered. Additionally, I can tell you as a woman that the procedure is not very comfortable and in fact can be momentarily painful. I think...especially with the young Swiftie fans tuning in...it was a good opportunity to reach out to women to get screened regularly.
We hear this many times as a barrier to getting screened. But many screenings for many other potential illnesses and afflictions are painful. If that's why anyone ignores a mammogram there is not much we can do about it.

The game against the Vikings was one of his iconic games. Maybe his stats weren't eye popping by today's standards, but he had 3 TDs and a few amazing plays.
Also that final week against the Dolphins he scored 5 TDs. That was for real one of his best games ever. 65% completion percentage, 224 yards passing, 3 passing TDs, 95 rushing yards and 2 rushing TDs. He had a passer rating of 114.9.
yeah i remember it vividly. A meaningless game for most but not for Josh, his development, and the Bills fans all enjoying the love at last home game.
When Josh turned the corner and got downhill on that long TD run it sealed the deal for me Bills got something here.
That game energized the whole Buff-Show and set up the best off-season of hope since the Kelly signing. Glory was coming and bring'n Josh Ballin Allen with it. lol

Trying to analyze draft picks is a fools errand for anyone who isn't an expert. It's also a fool's errand for the experts, in many cases. I realized that for a long time, and such, when Josh was picked by us, I was neither irritated or excited.
The thing about Josh that still stands out to me is that despite seeming to be a very obvious project, he was still projected to go anywhere between 1 and 11. Usually the guys who have all the athletic ability but are still very raw, get dropped down to between 2 and 6th round. What stood out so much about Josh that had him slotted for one of those very high spots despite the rawness?
For example, this guy on NE who torched our second team. Strong arm. Good runner. Has those good attributes but was dropped down to 6th round because of accuracy issues, etc.
People saw something in Josh that has never been seen in a PROJECT type guy before. Or am I wrong. Has such a raw qb talent ever been projected and picked so high?
Kyle Boller had the similar stat line and critics.
lest also not forget Pegula wanted Mahomes but he acquiesced to pre-Beane McDermott and traded out. So if Pegula had had a Jerry Jones type personality Bills would have had Mahomes. Personally, i love Allen and would not trade him for Mahomes now. But back then i would have taken Mahomes.

Building a dome with a 50-yr lifespan for 1 guy who will play 1/5th of that is the definition of short-sighted.
not short sighted at all. You build the dome for all players not just Allen. And because NFL is an all passing league now. But additionally, but not mutually exclusive, you build it in Buffalo's case to give best chance they may ever have at finally reversing the SB jinx. With Allen they have their best chance ever.
1 hour ago, SoCal Deek said:I guess ‘new’ is relative. Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, Cleveland, even Miami all have stadiums that are way newer than the Buffalo and none are domes. The Bills will be playing the majority of their games outside (both home and away) for the next two decades at a minimum.
all new stadiums being built now are domes. Tennesse, Chicago, Washington, and Carolina will be too.
you want to live in the past while the rest of the league pulls away?? While FA's are luke warm to Bills weather? Yeah vast majority of players want non Buffalo weather too. Josh and most of his teammates too.

TNF should become Saturday Night Football
OR
Tuesday Night Football and just the last game of the week or something.
Playing on 3 days rest is insane.
its actually 4.5 days from Sunday game to Thursday night, but i agree 100%. There is no good reason any team should have to play Sunday then Thurs.
The teams playing Thursday should be coming off byes the previous Sunday. And/or play on Sat during the day prior to the Thurs. game.

Wonder what 100 tons of snow is going to do to the canopy?
same thing it does on every other N climate in the world(Canadian has domes too). Slide off or melt. 🤷♀️
Carrier Dome gets more snow per year then Buffalo and they had a fabric air supported dome for decades. And now have hard top.

whatever SB window Bills have right now this year cannot afford to rock the boat by getting rid of Cook right now. Davis is a rookie. Johnson is a nice story but has never proven to be a starter.
He is stellar and just scored 3 td!! th ...lol seems everyone loves him especially Josh
The hit it would put psychological on the O and team would not be worth it.
Even if someone right now offered a 1st rounder, i would say NO. He is not on the trade block at this time. Check in in off season.

Too funny, Many need drama and a diva at WR, this everybody eats thing is driving them crazy. Sam Watkins then Stefan Diggs!
Watkins never complained about targets. He was very productive when targeted by Bills.
It was fans and media and even some other players + coaches complaining they needed to get Sammy the ball more.

I always thought the "everybody eats" phrase was a response to all the questions players and coaches got about what are we going to do without a true #1 WR.
they usually say "WR by committee" in that case scenario. "Everybody eats" is usually a response to a drama queen stat chaser no longer on team.
yeah i made some of that up, but it is most plausible, lol
