Almost every non-Bills fan I know consider the Bills their 2nd favorite team. Most NFL fans want Josh Allen and the Bills to win a superbowl, I've noticed. Even many fans of AFC East rivals have good things to say about the Bills, although that's probably where most of our haters are too. I would guess that the Bills are least popular with Dolphins and Chiefs fans.

Good thing it was Nathan Peterman. It allowed us to move in quickly and go with Josh.

Are you saying that all the other teams are not this way? Why would the Bills be any different?

New England is the best team in the NFL at stopping the run. They have a legit defense.

If they play, it is probably for like a quarter at the most. They'd be dumb to risk all their starters when they have nothing to play for.

That's so random. Whether we have a full back or not seems so trivial. He is basically a special teams player who comes in at FB or TE when we need him to. There are so many bigger issues. I wish we had a great #2 WR who actually causes conflicts for defenses and makes Diggs harder for defenses to deal with because they also have to consider the damage our #2 could do.

BB has had long talks with McDermott many times. I think he has a lot of respect for him.

He was never on the hot seat.

See, I think Shakir is kind of like Davis. He is an excellent 3rd option. He thrives in being the afterthought on offense. But I think we need someone more dynamic in the #2 role, and I don't see him as a dedicated slot player. I'd like to see Davis walk, draft a WR high to be the #2, bring in a good slot option, and then let Shakir continue in his current role, with maybe rotating at #2 some with the rookie to give him some more reps.

If Brady can't untether the passing offense, he doesn't get the job next year. Simple as that. It's a passing league. We have Josh Allen and Stef Diggs, two premier passing game weapons. Figure it out. But good job on the run game.

Yes, the Cover 1 guys mentioned that as well. Playcallers have a tendency to over think things sometimes. I remember that a lot with Daboll, Dorsey, and now Brady, too. But I'm a firm believer in running things over and over until the defense proves they can stop it. If it is working, keep doing it. Good job by McDermott making that change.

He is turning into one of my favorite players. And Douglas has to be one of the better mid-season trades in franchise history. Great job by Beane.

I wish Elam was at least active. It is really feeling like that 1st round pick was wasted.

We didn't give a 3rd rounder. We GOT a 3rd rounder for him, plus a player. It was a good trade.

Both guys showing their true colors. They are just a couple of Neanderthals.

They absolutely deserved it. Did that make them a good team compared to other playoff teams? No.

Actually, they WOULD deserve to make the playoffs because that is how the playoff seeding works.

I personally think that Watson will never be very good again. But we'll see.

Tua is kind of like Dak. He is a good QB, but he isn't great and can't put the team on his back and will them to victory. It is hard to move on from good QB's, but it is also hard to overcome the truly great ones in the playoffs and super bowl.

I agree. It would take something crazy from Allen or one of the others to for McCaffrey to lose it, but maybe the QB bias comes into play?

Dak has zero chance now. Hill has not much of a chance since he missed games, in my opinion. Purdy probably doesn't now that he had a horrible game where he threw 4 INT's. McCaffrey, Jackson, and Allen are the ones with a shot. But the narrative around Allen has been too negative all year, so I don't think he has much of a shot either unless he plays out of his mind the last couple of weeks.

Well, it wasn't a playoff game. The 49ers weren't going to be eliminated with a loss. It makes a difference.

It wasn't really open. Benford was there. Another couple of Bills were getting there. He cut it back inside for a reason. The Dolphins beat the Pats a few years ago with that type of play.

Yeah. Turnovers kill every team, including the Bills. It is the #1 thing they need to fix. They have to take care of the ball better. Period.

They can join the club. Every team is dealing with injuries.
