Success

That looks like where I'd like to be, 24x7 for the rest of my days.

I just hate the new format where only one team gets a bye. I'm sure I'm not alone in that. I wouldn't care as much about not getting the 1 seed if the 2 seed still got a bye. That rest week can make such a difference.

Michael Jordan.

Beating the Chiefs to get to the show would be euphoria. Losing to them again would be the depths of despair. Gotta love sports.

Jackson is a great player, having a great season. But it's hard to imagine him winning a 3rd MVP when Allen has none. He's not as valuable to that team as Allen is the Bills. It's close, but Allen carries this team more than Jackson carries his, consistenly.

I was looking forward to this day of football - but I did not enjoy this day of football.

Most think it's better if Pitt wins. I don't really care - I'm kind of rooting for them, but either way. I have no idea who we match up better with.

It's never easy. I'd love for the Bills to have a year where they stood tall above everyone else, but that's not the norm. We can do it. I still think we're better than all of these teams, even though it's not by a mile.

Pittsburgh, don't you understand that there is an MVP race going on? Shame on you.

Man, please be okay. That looked really bad.

Watching sports is about 97% frustration, and 3% joy. It's illogical to be a sports fan.

Great Josh Allen-y play from Wilson there.

That was so annoying.

I wanted Johnson before we got Cooper. He was good in Carolina. It's weird that he didn't pan out w/ the Ravens.

Just for kicks, I'd love to see the coaching staff call an aggressive defense the entire game. Not having the safeties back off for 15-20 yards, some press coverage, more blitzes, the works. It really feels like the philosophy has to change if we want to make a run in the playoffs. It doesn't have to be a wholesale makeover, but just up the ante.

Yep - I enjoyed his posts. Not sure if he's been posting, but I haven't seen anything in quite awhile.

It's fantastic watching this now. Not just since so much time has passed and both teams have gone in opposite directions - but the whole narrative they're espousing was demolished in the next 2 games against them that season. But what you see here is the last gasp of the insufferable arrogance that characterized that whole region for 2 decades. What losers. This was after the wind game? They think that actually counted for something other than "bad team beats good team in the worst conditions imaginable?"

I feel like we used to get MANY more opposing fans on the board - particularly a week ahead of the game w/ their team. There are hardly any here now. Really, I can just think of a few from KC. We had a Pats fan who posted here regularly (who was definitely not a troll), but I haven't seen him in awhile.

Nix looks as good as anyone from this QB class.

I still think we get the 1 seed, so I'm not gonna worry about either of these teams.

Run it up. I remember the dynasty days for that team. Every time we played them, it was like a visit to the dentist - unpleasant, and just something you had to get through.

When it comes to disliking teams, I don't usually do that - it's fanbases that annoy me. And Boston's fanbase is still at the top for me.

You counting OT in that 13 seconds game, eh? And I get why you didn't do the stats for the '24 game. Yes - Mahomes was better in '20, when the Bills top 4 receivers all had significant injuries, including a broken leg & an oblique. Your implication that Allen feasts on bad teams and doesn't really show up on the "big stage" was laughable. Sorry 'bout that.

Allen had more total yards in both games, more big plays, and more TD's. You like appealing to national opinion, and most thought Allen played better the last 2 match-ups in the playoffs. You can make an argument that it was closer to even - the stats were fairly close, but eye test gives Allen the edge. But no way was Mahomes better in any measurable way. Allen generally outplays in him the regular season games, also. Your comment about Allen "Then again, he’s always been great at demolishing weak defenses/bad teams in the regular season. We’ll see what he does on the big stage this time" was really off base. Allen has been fantastic in the playoffs, and against good & great teams (i.e. like the Lions on Sunday).

The defense is definitely carrying them this year. I'm envious of that - I'd love to see Allen get even a game or 2 like that (bad teams don't count). Still holding out hope for that 1 seed. Really interested to see how they do against the Texans, whether Mahomes plays or not.
