Maybe Peyton Manning can un-hex them too.

I'm going to be honest. I don't give a crap what happened in 2021. That team isn't this team. A lot of people keep dipping into the 2021 bag. Yes, it's a sign anything can happen. But unless this team can miraculously figure out how to: - Get receivers open consistently - Stop a running attack - Rush the passer - Have good solid coaching on both sides of the ball - Play 4 complete quarters - Avoid any further injuries Then this team is sunk. I know the popular rallying cry is supposed to be "As long as we have Josh Allen anything can happen". But that showed several times this year to be false. No more apparent then against the Texans. He can't throw passes to himself. He can't stop the run. And he's making more mental errors this year than he has in a long time. Takes more than an amazing QB to win in the NFL....ask Dan Marino.

As of this morning, the Bills are in the 7 seed. Houston, who owns the head to head tie breaker is right behind us. The Chiefs are right behind them. I don't know what all goes into that 84%, but I can see our chances being significantly lower with the teams we face from here on out. I ran the Playoff Prediction tool a few times and the Bills made the playoffs roughly 6 out of the 10 tries. The possibility of missing the playoffs has never been more realistic. And even if they get in, do you see any world where this team shows up for 3 straight playoff games, on the road AND has a solid plan on both offense and defense? Then, avoids any in game injuries that would alter said amazing plans? I just don't this year.

On the positive side, we come in with a few extra days to rest and prepare. I think this game is the calm before the 💩 show. We win this one easily. 31-13. Then turn around and get squashed by the Bengals, Patriots and Browns.

Again, did we? Were we there when they discussed this? Did I pull a Keon and miss a meeting?

Without talent it goes from everybody eats to Josh gets killed.

I'm hoping Beane is on the phone with 31 other teams searching for a trade. The only guy that's scheduled to be a FA is Pickens and the drum beat is already starting that they may franchise tag him in Dallas. Beane is going to have to get creative with the solution because help isn't coming the FA route. Addison is definitely someone they should call on.

The bolded is the correct sentence in your whole post. You don't understand what we are doing here. Because you don't have access to the medicals, you wouldn't have been in the doctor's visits. I'm betting you don't have access to his medical records either. This could be something that the medical staff has said won't get worse playing on it. In fact, as one poster pointed out, being the cast has come off it would suggest it's doing better.

I'm actually a fan of the everyone eats philosophy. I'm a believer that weekly, you need to distribute passes to everyone. Keep the defense guessing and not be able to clamp down on one or two guys. Our issue is that, while everyone is welcome to the table no one brought their appetite. We bring in guys that go to the steak house, order BBQ chicken and get filled up on rolls. We need at least one (preferably two) guys that bring their appetite and clear their plates.

Would it shock anyone if Pete Carroll was 1 and done In Vegas, too?

If we don't bring back Mike Tolbert and Kelvin Benjamin, what's even the point of this season.

We aren't. Anyone still thinking this year can end in a Super Bowl is just kidding themselves. We are closer to missing the playoffs altogether.

Fres Smerlas is on his treadmill right now getting in shape just in case..

It will open with the song "I am Not Ok" by Jelly Roll

They didn't lose because of me. I didn't give up one single sack or pressure Yup. It was this guy's fault. The punishment fits the crime. And congratulations. Hope all are healthy!

It the Patriots. I don't care enough to think about em.

I don't think anyone has gotten as much from their rookie class this year as the Browns. Of course, rookies will see more opportunities when your roster is garbage.

Coaching is a problem. It's far from the only problem. Not replenishing talent has been a problem. Players getting lazy and complacent has been a problem. Injury has been a problem. Coaching has been part of it. Unquestioned. But it's far from the only factor. This version of this team has been years in the making.

Is it overrated when your biggest offensive threat this year has been your superstar running back? You really think Daboll got hired as the Giants HC because he was a great play caller? Please. That was Schoen trying to bring in a coach he knows. Recreate the Bills method. And there are plenty of guys that have won a HC job being not the best play caller or someone who has ever called plays. Look at Mike McDaniel. If you want to see how great an offensive mind Brian Daboll is, look at his time with the Giants in the window he called the plays. Look at his years in the league with any other team he's been on. I cannot wait til he's hired someplace else and people see him fail there too. Daboll's success is a product of Josh Allen.

I have always been on team "experienced play caller" I like guys that have done the job before. My thinking may have changed a bit since Thursday night. That defense that got 28 pressures and 8 sacks? Being run by a first time play caller. It definitely shows having a guy that is right for the job is more important as having a guy that's done the job before. Daboll is absolutely not a good play caller. He showed that here when he would abandon the run early. He showed that in NY when he took play calling over from Kafka last year that he hasn't learned anything. He's an OC that has been terrible throughout his career except for a very small blip when he had Allen and Diggs. He's Freddie Kitchens without the folksy charm.

Lmao. No he is not. He had a few great years with Allen and Diggs. Literally every other season he's been an OC he was bottom end. If you don't realize that, then you aren't watching enough football of other teams

You do realize you don't have to pick an OC with ugly nasty warts, right? I hope you don't choose women like you would an OC.

The Tennessee Titans have the chance to do the funniest thing ever.

Wonder what he's up to these days. Kinda shocked they haven't revisited him being here as McDermott and Beane had a lot of glowing things to say about him.

Yeah, I really think there is no "wrong way" to look at it. I think it's based now on if you see a path to the division still for the Bills. I see the path, but I don't have confidence the Bills will be able to take it. I'm out on our division title opportunity and focused on Wild Card. As such I just don't want a Cincinnati team that still feels like they can make the playoffs. They already lost 3 in a row and could easily drop the next two to New England and Baltimore before facing us. I would love that for them.
