The plot and ending may have killed the franchise in itself. When the audience is sitting there with a WTF is this face at points with decision made by characters your losing it. They basically made Michael Myers into a video game god mode type character which kills any relatability to the character.

Titans loss best thing for Seeding
corta765 replied to Kingston Bills Fan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Wait are you trying to tell stuff about the new stadium #DunkirkDonLives yep. The great irony of this is the game Josh beat them he was not good. Last year he was ok/decent, this year he was great and they loss. Football makes no sense at times -
Question 3 is good, I said no, and this is my take: Mahomes would've been successful in Buffalo, BUT the timeline of his development would've been similar to Allen's. He may have looked better year 1, but the 2018 Bills offense was garbage to the farthest extreme. By comparison the 2018 Chiefs which is Mahomes first true year at QB in KC (2017 I am not including in this exercise) he had a ready to run offense in terms of talent at skill positions and O-line. Literally he had to drive the ship and dear god did he ever drive that ship. Maybe the Bills are closer to the playoffs with Mahomes in 2018, but it still is a learning year. I think the 2019 Bills with Mahomes take out Brady for the division, but remember how important Tre is for the secondary and also the fact Dion Dawkins was acquired with one of the picks we moved for also. The Bills defense without Tre probably is not as solid which puts pressure on the Mahomes led offense in 2019 to be dynamic. We didn't have Tyreek or Kelce, so while John Brown and Beasley are good players the offense is less dynamic. But who knows what that then means of the AFC with KC then, do they bring in Lamar or Josh? Do they try and trade for Kirk Cousins or Tannehill? The dominos really are fascinating. I have no problem saying the Bills are a step ahead in 2019 with Mahomes, but I think the AFC as a whole is more competitive then as KC's supernova type start with Mahomes 2018-2020 truly did dominate the landscape and wouldn't happen allowing more competition. Additionally the Bills themselves are stronger on offense on the outset but their D is weaker. Truthfully last years 2020 Bills squad was the best team in the AFC they just had KC in the way. This years team is more well rounded I think, but the competition is raised even with KC falling back to earth. So I say no the Bills do not win a SB and if anything mimic this current squads journey especially as I think the AFC is just that much tighter instead. This would be my prediction for the Bills 2018-2020 with Mahomes: 2018: 8-8 . Offense is better as Mahomes out of the gate was more accurate then Allen, but lack of weapons sinks the season and the defense misses not having a #1 corner 2019: 11-5 division crown. NE goes down, but the Bills fall in the post season and Baltimore or Houston goes to the SB 2020: 12-4 division crown again. Post-season I think Bills have 25% chance at SB, but the talent in the AFC makes it all a coin flip at this point and it just isn't our turn.

For being bold predictions these 3 are looking pretty solid right now. Carolina the first 3 weeks was looking good as a pick, now they seem to be flaming out. Fields is screwed by his team and his own personal lack of effort.

I normally do not see games as blowouts, however I could really see this getting ugly for Miami as they just lost two games last minute with their coaching staff making some realllyyyyy questionable decisions. Tua actually I thought looked OK to decent in the last two games so football science says he is going to implode haha.

I am a BIG Burrow fan. He reminds more of a more polished Josh coming out of college and the way he plays is really easy to like. Plus his whole speech about repping poor kids and stuff was awesome, he just seems like a really good dude.

Remarkable they aren't even playing each other and they still manage to suck

Privacy for Josh Allen and Bills' players

Privacy for Josh Allen and Bills' players
corta765 replied to Inigo Montoya's topic in The Stadium Wall
To me its a time and place type thing. I met Jim Kelly at a bar once on St Pattys in 2010 because he was being social and ok with people coming up. If I was at a bar and brewery and Allen was mingling a bit I wouldn't feel bad coming up to him. But if he is doing groceries or at a restaurant I am leaving him be and hope others would, same really for any player. I use to work at a bank and frequently met/worked with some of the Sabres, Thomas Vanek especially. 90% of my conversations were what I would have with any of the customers, with the rare occasion if he had a great game or they just clinched the playoffs to bring up that. -
For the Bills I predict a very lazy Sunday for fans that sees weight loss due to no game meaning less beer, wings, and other food. Perhaps even the lawn gets mowed! For the games over the weekend I want/see KC beating TEN which helps our tie breaker for the 1 seed, Bengals hopefully upset the Ravens for seeding reasons and Joe Burrow is fun to watch, and the Geno lead Seahawks upset the Saints because football is really weird.

All-22 Grades for Bills/Titans (The Athletic)
corta765 replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yea the biggest weakness this defense has is the PA. For some reason it’s the one area they freeze like deee in headlights at points. -
All-22 Grades for Bills/Titans (The Athletic)
corta765 replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Agreed. To read that he had a good game is just crap. The Jets, THE JETS, sacked the crap out of Titans and we couldn't get one. Sometimes this is where looking at analytics is too much. The Bills failed to get to Tannehill and he was able to convert many big passes in the 2nd half especially because of this. -
A few thoughts about the Titans game, in no particular order
corta765 replied to Virgil's topic in The Stadium Wall
Exactly. I HATE when people cherry pick stats because you literally are altering the reality to your own liking. -
Having the #1 seed guarantees just two games needed to make the SB and you are home for both. At least one of the #1 seeds has made the SB 4 of the last 5 years with the only year not being the 2018-19 season when both #2 seeds NE and LAR beat the #1 seeds at home (mind you NOLA should've went thanks officials). The year prior to that in 2017-18 both #1 seeds made the SB (NE and PHI). So you when it basically has been a 50% average of a #1 seed making it in I would say its a big deal.

Oh yea agree 100% it was why I was annoyed with our fans coming in thinking it would be some cakewalk, they were no joke. -
Anyone Have This Frustration With The Titans Game
corta765 replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
The Titans are very good talented team but their team is focused a certain way. Their two losses in the playoffs the last two years happened when the Chiefs offense got going and Henry was held in check long enough to make the lead untouchable. The loss to the Ravens was a team who could match their style and physicality. Buffalo can do what the Chiefs did and were basically a 4th down stop/FG turned into TD from doing so. I think that is what is kinda their undoing is the fact they have certain brand and if it doesn't work it stymies them. -

corta765 replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'll say this in defense of the defense. They had a game against the Chiefs the week earlier where they played lights out in an incredibly emotional hard way. The second half I honestly thought having a second night game in two weeks that had a lot of emotion finally was catching them a little bit physically. The guys are human and the first drive for the Titans in the second half was a nearly 7 minute 12 play drive for a Henry TD which included the big 4th down conversion for the Titans. Watching the game it felt like that was truly the big momentum swing for the Titans as had the Bills stopped them Buffalo is up 23-17 with an opportunity to make it a two score game. Instead they went up 24-23 and had forced their will on our defense. It just seemed like things finally caught our guys are little bit. Making matters worse the Titans next two drives were over ten minutes combined so the defense was really starting to wear too and I just gotta believe being human you they started having that feeling it was all uphill climb. -
Anyone Have This Frustration With The Titans Game
corta765 replied to corta765's topic in The Stadium Wall
Not sure how the heck this is moaning. They played a highly entertaining game that was the best of the year so far. My point is it sucks back to back year what probably was the best game viewer wise we came up uber short. Check my prediction for the Titans game I had Bills 28 - Titans 27 with Allen leading a last second drive, I said wayyy too many people undersold the Titans and oversold the Bills after weeks of dominating. My point was simply its a maddening feeling to have a game like that for a second year and come up literally inches away from victory. Outside of making the path to the #1 seed potentially tougher I think the season is still in tact and they are doing fine. -

I'm not upset as much as more just maddening to have back to back years of amazingly entertaining epic games and come up sooooo close. I loved the call to go for it, I just wish they went 4 wide with RB there so they had a lot of options given the weapons. I really don't look at reffing calls anymore. Buffalo had a multitude of errors that cost them more then just singular missed holding call. Also last week we benefited from a really weak roughing the passer call. Difference was we played a good mistake free game whereas this week we didn't. -
The Turning Point In the Monday Night game For Me
corta765 replied to wagne591's topic in The Stadium Wall
I had a similar thought that the drive wasn't good, but the sack was a killer and the amount of pressure Josh had I think he did the best there with what he had. At the time I didn't like the deep throw but in retrospect I get given the situation trying to do it. Third down their coverage was great and he almost got the pass in a super narrow window. So I agree that drive was the chance to put the game away, but I really wish the defense could've made a stop at the same point. The offense put 31 pts up despite heavy pressure on Josh and the defense had allowed 5 straight scoring drives. A stop with no points on even one of those 6 and we win. The game as a whole had just too many what if's for Buffalo. -

I was thinking of the Bills MNF record recently and its gastly bad (1-9) in the last ten games with a ton of soul killing games: 2021: 0-1 Titans loss 2020: 1-2 Pats win, Titans & Chiefs loss (not sure how else to code those) 2019: dnp 2018: 0-1 Pats loss 2017: dnp 2016: 0-1 Seattle loss (ugh) 2015: 0-1 NE loss 2009: 0-1 NE loss (double ugh McKelvin) 2008: 0-1 CLE (wide right) 2007: 0-1 DAL (triple ugh) SNF since McD got here I believe we are undefeated which is good minus Collinsworth lol -

Agreed. Unfortunately with Hughes I think age has caught him and they may have been better of cutting bait in the offseason to sign a younger FA. With Bruce Smith it took a year or two before he fully emerged and that's why with Groot I am happy with his performance but tempered expectations like you said to what he can and should be doing.
