I think a lot of HC candidates would be drawn into a "broken situation", a small improvement and they can look like a miracle worker. It will come down to the ownership, the $ and the power. Similar to what Beane/McDermott have done. It will ultimately come down to the ownership,the autonomy & t power and the $.

Now that football outsiders has us at the top, if will magically transform from a crack post, biased arbitrary grading system to absolute football integrity and gospel.

Living in Houston I had to watch the Texans twice fumble away games in the final minutes to the Colts. I was not impressed with the Colts at all. Take away just one of the games and Colts dont make the playoffs.

Failed year after year at Coach and QB? What? You mean the guy that got the franchise its third Super Bowl by getting Peyton Manning and not even talking about Elway's own two Super Bowl Victories. Broncos have never won a Super Bowl without the direct intervention of John Elway.

Honestly, who cares? He is not a moron, he has been in the NFL, understands it better than us fans. This gives him a opportunity to latch opportunity to latch onto the hottest team in the NFL and maybe get a nearly free golden ticket to the Super Bowl. A shot very , very few players would turn down.

no.

It would be ideal if after we beat the Colts the Ravens/Titans winners beats KC. Then we beat the Browns/Steelers winner and we get 3 playoff home games.

Just think two years ago Kenny Stills would have been our go to WR, now he is just an added luxury. Amazing the roster transformation.

I think it was an absolute contributor. The Steelers had a very warped schedule this year and we got them at the perfect time. Just like he Bills when they got their schedule all screwed up we had out two worst games in a row and I dont think it was coincidence.

After Lynn's comically bad decisions to end our game I am not at all shocked. So many close games lost I think you have to look at the HC. Nice man but was prone to terrible decisions.

Our timing with the Steelers was incredible, it was their third game in 11 days.

That is all true plus our defense was near its bottom. I have read the stories about Milano, Edmonds and Tre White were all banged up for a while but I am still amazed how the defense has turned around.

Also I always have an issue with the expressions for draft picks and seedings. If you want a "high" draft pick, should that mean an earlier round 1st or 2nd or a later round like a 7th?

I actually got a good chuckle out of that.

All three of those teams are brutal matchups for the Bills and any of the three imo could survive. You get Derrick Henry on a roll and the Titans are brutal, same thing with Lamar.

KC will play in KC the lowest surviving seed after the first wild card round. The Bills if they will will play the other one. If the Bills lose to the Colts then KC plays the Colts. They do not re-seed. KC will play the lowest surviving seed.

Yeah the only problem with the Steelers are the damn obnoxious Steeler fans and their idiotic terrible towels will try to invade our stadium. I just hope with all the Covid protocol we can keep them out, certainly dont want to start a plague in Pittsburgh do we.

Who knows?

10 days in isolation, cutting it close, wouldn't permit any meaningful practice time for him

Imagine if we obliterate the Dolphins and Tua has a terrible game (highly likely imo) and then he has to come back in one week and face it again.

I know what you meant but i disagree, the Super Bowl is the culmination in the playoffs. Winning playoffs games is relatively meaningless if you dont win the ultimate playoff game.

9 straight playoff wins? Sadly no that is not true, that is the entire point. The most they had in a row was 3

Those are valid points: limited draft capital is an issue Easterby is a problem and to his credit, unlike Bob McNair, Cal grew a set and said Easterby wont by GM, Easterby will be gone Not the same authority structure when the sole owner dies

Yup, I think 8 teams playoffs per Conference is now in play depending on how the other 10 win teams win or not, just assume the Browns win one.

The issue that created BOB was brain dead Bob McNair and he is gone. Cal McNair isnt much better but at least he is willing to listen to other people. 1) No state income tax 2) He is from Houston 3) Have solved the number one issue for a new GM, have a top notch QB 4) A lof of players are from Texas/South and would be an weasy sell IF they had a competent GM and HC
