I think there is nuance here tho. If Worthy was their last viable 1st rounder then they would have taken him. Since they traded out we know they didn’t think of him any higher than Coleman.

This is all valid. The narrative is that Josh has a turnover problem and it’s funny how if he had dirted that ball it wouldn’t be talked about as much. Instead he throws a pick in the end zone which lost Miami yards. I would rank outcomes as: 1. Allen gets at least the 1st down 2. That pick (or one resulting in Miami with the ball at the 20 or less) 3. Any other outcome We got the 2nd option here and it’s just piling on Allen for turnovers

That is an oversimplification of it. Think of it like this: If both guys can throw it well in perfect weather but one guy can make longer or harder throws, wind will reduce both their capabilities but there is no reason to think it will affect the harder throwing guy more like you are suggesting. And the higher the wind gets, the closer the weaker arm gets to being useless while the stronger arm is still capable of something. All this being said I'd prefer no wind.

Must be tough that the pats have been terrible for so long

Cowboys are much better at home. I don't see Dallas as that good of a team coming to Buffalo in December. Home pts for avg: 40 Away pts for avg: 21.8 Home pts allowed: 12.5 Away pts allowed avg: 23 (and this is including giving 0 up to the Giants. If you remove that game they are giving up 28.75 on average on the road)

I think he said settled

I have a hard time saying KC just gets home field advantage against Buffalo when Buffalo beat them head to head. If anything that should be used as the tiebreaker IMO. I would also be okay with randomly vacating a non-Bills KC game and resetting the records.

If KC and Buffalo are 1 and 2 then they can't play each other until the AFC title game and they would both have had home games up to that point. If you then put the AFC title game on a neutral field there is no home field advantage associated with the higher seed. If you are going to go down this road it is take the bye and lose home field against the other team.

Sure but all teams in the each conference get the same number of home and away games. This year the NFC got 9 home games and the AFC got 8. It effectively has no effect on intraconference seeding for the playoffs.

The Ravens beat the Bengals in their first matchup

What would Cowherd be saying if the Chiefs lost last night though? Mahomes had a chance to close out the Raiders with the ball and couldn't convert a 3rd and short/medium. The Raiders got the ball back with roughly 2 minutes and couldn't into fg range and I'm supposed to believe what Mahomes made that happen from the sideline? He either isn't watching or is trolling but this idea that Mahomes has magic and Allen somehow doesn't is ridiculous.

Fun Fact: Hill has 1 TD against the Bills in 4 games (including playoffs). Also in the regular season he was hasn't done much against the Bills. He's racked up yards in the two playoff games but he scored 2 TDs in 5 minutes against the Ravens. I just don't think that will happen Sunday.

That's not really accurate though if you are trying to try and predict a future performance. the process is what matters in predicting the future not the result. Go back and watch the 2 long hill TDs. Hill runs in a straight line at the snap, Tua basically stares him down then heaves it as far as he can and Hill slows up, catches and runs into the endzone. He was so open both times it was stupid. Hill hasn't been able to go over the top against the Bills with Mahomes so avoid that and we'll see.

Clearly bait but you got me. Allen has played 1 game and put up 4 total TDs so we'll see TDs after Monday. Of the two picks, Allen literally had 1 go off a receivers hands and the other one was a great play by the db. I don't remember another bad throw by Allen on Thursday but maybe you do. Mahomes threw a worse ball right to Samuel last night handled it about as well as someone who never saw a football before. How could anyone say Allen is better at this point? They actually watch the games.

I don't have much of an opinion about whether Diggs or Kupp is better but in the interest of having a real debate and bringing people to tears: The Bills scored an 47 and 36 points in 2 postseason games The Rams scored 34, 30, 20, 17 So whatever Diggs was bringing to the table was clearly helping the Bills more than Kupp was helping the Rams. If Diggs wasn't being targeted much it was because teams sold out to stop him and all costs and Bills offense was prolific. So from a team scoring standpoint Diggs had a huge effect.
