He's coordinated a defense ONE season...20 years ago. And then double down with Daboll? This HAS to be satire.

Why would we want that? Tomlin has less time as a DC than Babich.

With both defenses being not so hot and both offenses being able to pile points, naturally this will be an ugly low scoring affair. Bills- 20 Bengals-11

I'd take Jaylen Warren as a back up RB lol. He does well when he's more of a change of pace guy. I'd take Darnell Washington, that mammoth TE. Who knew that the son of a man nicknamed "Ironhead" would be so soft.

Pittsburgh didn't trade Pickens because he lost his starting job and played horrible this year. Slay was even an healthy scratch at one point this year. Howie makes moves every year that don't work out. Just like every GM. Just as an aside, is there somewhere that even says the Eagles wanted him back that I missed or is this personal speculation dressed as fact? In any event, what's best for the Bills? Pulling in a vet on the way downside of his career, or getting out promising looking first round CB the most possible snaps and on field experience before the playoffs?

Don't like it. He hasn't been good this year and it's one more guy that may take snaps from Hairston. Unless he can play the NCB role

I suspect Bosa is out for this one, which sucks due to the Bengals not being good on the OL and Burrow being a statue. I will even say he misses a second game...but I don't mind him missing the New England game actually. Maye is shifty, probably not getting too many sack opportunities...but Bosa out means maybe we have someone in there that will set the edge against a good running team in a possible bad weather game.

And this is an example of why I say stats without context are meaningless.

Mine is a seemingly meaningless game against the Dolphins. The one where Hyde took the onside kick for the TD. It was the first game I took my son to. Being able to share that right of passage with him was a top 5 moment in my entire life

Well though out and presented. However, the one area I split with you, like many, is that Baltimore in Baltimore is far from a dream scenario. In fact, I would place that under more of a nightmare scenario. Worst possible outcome type thing. That team playing at home plays on another level. It really doesn't matter that Buffalo has beaten Baltimore twice in the playoffs. Those teams are not this team. In fact, I would put the Bills getting the 6 seed as a better spot. Likely playing either Jacksonville or Indy. Then with a win, we would likely head to whoever the 1 seed is (Denver or Patriots).

After last night, the Patriots can clinch the division, in their house, by beating Buffalo. They will be there with purpose. In fact, I read today that the only way the Bills can win the division, is to win out and have the Pats lose to with Miami or the Jets. The pathways are getting mighty narrow.

Goes back further. How can you forget Jake Kumerow?

The most overrated item in America bar none. You can get a bigger pack of cookies that have double the amount of cookies for half the price right in the cookie aisle of the same Walmart you buy Girl Scout cookies in front of. Because they don't sell them year round your mind tricks itself as being better than they are. And a lot of the times, the Girl Scouts aren't even selling them. It's parents hitting up coworkers. Most of the time the kids in scouts aren't even out at the table selling the cookies at Walmart either. A bunch of parents doing it.

Imagine we had Barkley at RB, Brown and Smith at WR. And still struggle to score points and move the ball. What do you think our...um... intellectually challenged sect of fan base would do? Every team in every sport has a section of idiotic drunks rooting for them. In no city are they the majority. Even places where we think the general population are scum, the majority turn out to be ok. Kansas City is an example. This is all a scam to sell eggs, is t it?

The ends justify the means. Had it not been that amazing three minute span by Bosa and Benford to open the second half, that score would have been much closer regardless of the time of possession or rush yards. Ultimately, I would have been content with the win, but if not for the defense we are having an entirely different conversation about the offense this week IMO. I liken it to people that watch MLB games for the deep balls or the NHL for the fights. People want to see the excitement. They want that 80 yard TD pass more than the 10 play 80 yard 7 minute long drive. We live in clip in a world where a 20 second clip on Twitter is what people want. Attention spans aren't long enough these days.

Hell see a lot of snaps on their...PS. Well played Eli.

I took Bosa and Shaq as well. But I think even that comes down to an "only if we get a good deal" dollar wise. If somebody wants to shell out big bucks for Bosa I let him walk. And Shaq has been a good player this season...but he is replaceable. Again, not trying up a lot in an older injury prone LBer. Prater is right there for me as well, but again, a money issue. Go cheaper and search for a good Kicker in the draft or FA if Bass isn't the answer. The rest? Fire em into the sun.

Just get the wins any possible way. From what they have said this is what the team believes. Josh is all on board with it. If he throws for 400 yards or 150...I truly don't think he or the teams care as long as they win. Problem comes from the fans. Statements like "We waited for a generational QB" all boils down to two things. Thing one...it's not as much fun to watch. Buffalo really is a boring team. And that can be a good thing the second boils down to people upset that the Bills don't win in a manner that they envision a good football team would in 2025. We aren't the Rams or the Lions flinging it all over the field and taking risks. It's bland boring football. But it's winning games.

Would also likely mean we are on a 5 or 6 game win streak, no?

I do not like our matchup with Denver. Good defense...maybe just a hair behind Houston and an offensive that is confident and finds ways to win. I'm not wary of Baltimore at all. Their defense still is shaky and Lamar has been off since he came back. And Indy may not even make it, and if they do a one legged Danny Dimes isn't a bad matchup. Looking at potential Playoff teams, Houston Denver and New England are they only teams that give me pause. Playoff football is about defense and running the rock. Texans D > Chiefs D; neither are big threats on the ground. I feel like we could handle this version of the Chiefs far better in the playoffs than that Texans D.

I know some here will blast pulling for the Chiefs here, but the simple reality is Houston is one game back and owns the tie breaker. Bills getting in is the first priority. And I do NOT under any circumstances want to run into that Houston defense again in the playoffs.

Hey, I love Josh. But the next time he doesn't say something overly glowing about a teammate or coach will be the first time it happens. He's too much of a Golden Retriever to not love everyone. Even last year when he was calling Ty Johnson the "best 3rd down RB in the NFL". I mean, we all have eyes. He was good but the best? C'mon now lol. Heck, he still hypes Diggs up when asked a question about him. He just doesn't know any other way but to talk positive about others. He is Mr. Brightside. Josh advocated for Ken Dorsey publicly. He advocated for Joe Brady publicly. They both got their jobs and everyone said "Gotta make Josh happy". He's been vocally supportive of guys like Keon Coleman. He was in a group of WRs that he publicly talked up before the draft. Maybe it's time to stop making Josh happy and put guys around him that are skilled. If they really want to make Josh happy, how about a move up the draft board for a big time WR?

There's only 17 games in a season. Every game is a "must win".

Hawes can already do everything Knox can. Really makes Knox expendable. I'm NOT saying Hawes is as good as Kelce, but much like Kelce Hawes is good at peeling boff and finding holes in zone coverage. He, I think has the ability to be bigger in the passing game.
