  1. That was on purpose. Give them the first with 0 time off the clock. First and 10 v first and 5. It was rightly declined.
  2. It seems to me Daboll started buying into the he built Allen narrative. Thought he could do the same with Jones. Never close to the same prospects. Allen always had that if he cleaned up some stuff look out vibe to him. In college Allen made the best passes you would ever see. Jones was as mechanically sound as you could be but still was underwhelming. Interesting how they will/have spin that Mora forced their hands with Jones. Imo after that playoff run you trade him at the height of his value. Probably get a top 15 pick. Soft draft tag him and then let him walk. Based off hard knocks Mora voiced his displeasure with the Barkley situation. Still Mora let them make the decision. They could have done the same with Jones. Gettleman gets flamed but he left Shoen a better roster than he is leaving the next guy. Poor roster construction. Beane and Mcdermott had conviction to do this job with their QB. Daboll and Schoen had fake conviction. Kinda drought Bills where they hedge their decisions so it couldn't be “their” fault.
  3. Yes. Missed up the years with Jones. Strong disagree with Barkley. I don't think you get back what he is worth. 2nd or 3rd isn't enough imo.
  4. Should have moved Jones after 22. Sign Barkley a year early. They have less good players than when they took over.
  5. Mahomes played great immediately. Thats him and his talent. The situation assisted that. I firmly believe if Buffalo drafts Mahomes and Allen ends up in KC a year later the team’s success and failures wouldn't be much different. In terms of production Allen is chasing down Mahomes in a lot of categories. Mahomes has the hardware but Allen is currently the prolific player. This season he is becoming the more efficient player. Sports are not linear. Because, someone starts better doesn't mean they stay better. I think this season Allen gets Buffalo to the mountain top. When he does talk will start if Allen is the best player in the NFL. I think in a few years he will widely accepted as that.
  6. Lol vegas about to get some money. Chargers v Atlanta must be 1pm start after Monday night. Panthers been frisky. Those are some do not watch it just trust the NFL is crazy games. Panthers Falcons Saints are the ugly plays of the weeks lol
  7. If Allen wins the Super Bowl this season he has a claim for best Qb in the league. Allen has been the more productive player for about 2 seasons. Mahomes had the success in the playoffs. The post season is the only argument currently for Mahomes and something Allen and the team hasn't accomplished.
  8. I think familiarity helped the Dolphins. Even with that they were weird holding calls and a flukey touchdown turning to an int away from getting blown out again. Coleman catches the slant clean and Allens TD run stands they are up big at half. Miami abandons the run and Tua is a sitting duck in the second half.
  9. They went very safe imo. More was put into the primetime games. More advertisement for black Friday and Christmas day. These games could be at 1pm on Sunday and no one would care. Thanksgiving is not premier TV anymore imo. It’s basically bottom primetime priority. Everyone is home, everyone will watch. Dallas being bad was probably unexpected though.
  10. 0. Bass has made big kicks. Was struggling since his miss vs KC in the playoffs. Still Bass struggling means he is at league average. Has a very big leg needed to kick in Buffalo. I think the game winner vs Miami gave him back his confidence. A lot of times teams are quick to pull the plug without an improvement. Change for change sake doesnt work. Thats why so many of the best kickers get let go and kick for years elsewhere.
  11. Caleb made the game interesting. Giants hype was always wrong. Probably wanted large markets for an easy big number.
  12. He has been very good. Besides the Baltimore game the defense has played well in every game with starters in and out all year.
  13. I come away after the bye week with the feeling that Buffalo on a good day is better than every team currently.
  14. I think many feel the 80’s were 20 years ago still. Not so. Mr Brightside is today’s generation classic rock.
  15. I say Chargers. Baltimore has the tie breaker. Also have Herbert in a few Fantasy leagues tonight lol
  16. Injury to Purdy or not I like the Bills. Miamis offense without the speed imo. Without the speed threat it allows the safeties to play a bit closer to the LOS and helps shrink the passing windows and fill the lanes in the wide zone. 10 point win with Purdy 21 point win if he is out.
  17. The song playing in the Stadium has no affect on the players ability to play. Now 70,000 singing something together creates an energy. College been doing it for years with different songs catching on and still being sung decades later. Mr Brightside is a popular sing along song. The ilk of Dont stop believing or Living on a prayer. Playing a song thats 20 years old instead of 40 or 50 years old is just the changing of times. More people are likely to know it and the words now with younger people growing up with it. Complaining about the lyrics or it’s not your favorite song/ band makes that person the old man yelling at clouds.
  18. Yes. That would be great. Game looks like a complete dud. Add some fire to it.
  19. They are getting better vs it. Samuel, Shakir, Cooper and Coleman can do it in different ways. Depending on match up and scheme the backs and Te can create mismatches. This is why I feel this is the best team Allen has had. Maybe not the 101 MPH fast ball of the 2021 Bills. Its still high 90’s with a slider and change up. What the defense presents Buffalo has options to exploit it in the passing or running game. In the have to have it play KC played zone. Allen shredded that game on third down and most were 3-7 plus. Mostly vs man.
  20. He was WIDE OPEN. In the biggest moments Mahomes had an easy answer. Dodson at 80% with Klein off street created a massive mismatch. Benard has been Buffalo best defender. Saying his absence didn't affect the outcome is wild imo. When his replacements were abused.
  21. Majority of the roster has been drafted and/or developed in Buffalo. Top players on the team have been drafted save Miller, Douglas and Cooper. Beane and Mcdermott have a good thing going in immediate impacts and developmental bottom of the roster players. Tough to argue that Beane is not a top 3-5 gm currently.
  22. Kelce went off in the playoffs because Buffalo was without Benard, Milano, Rapp, Douglas. Dodson played through an ankle injury. That was the difference in the game.
  23. Possible. Buffalo did not have its first and 3rd leader in targets. Was also down its starting RT and Kc was unable to sustain a pass rush without blitzing. Im sure Spags could get more exotic. Overall Allen did a good job of taking advantage of the 0 blitz. Shakir on 3-9. Samuel TD. They did show cover 0 and drop into cover 2 on 4-2. Allen diagnosed it and beat it with his feet.
  24. Most rock song are stupid when you think about them. Fun sing along song. Thats about as deep as it goes. You want to find meaning in the lyrics go for it. Been out for 20ish years. Dont stop believing is about a hooker and lonely guy. Similar reason for the popularity.
  25. With a decently healthy defense and Offense they blow em out. 38-13. I dont care if they play again in Buffalo, in Kc on Mars. That was a C game from Allen. Add in Coleman, Kincaid, and Brown with a better performance from Allen and I think the offense rolls. Kc isn't currently built to play from behind and abandon the run. Imo it will be a passing of the torch literally and figuratively. Kc and their fans need to hold onto Buffalo cant beat them when it matters b.s. On the field, the matchups favor Buffalo everywhere. Mahomes is great. So is Allen.
