  1. Ignorant people are going to be ignorant.... I personally do not care what some randoms think about why the game is being moved. As I mentioned previously, the NFL moves games for hurricanes. I thought Floridians didn't care about a little bit of rain. That is the comparison to chirpy Dolphins fans. It's a safety issue. Not a gameday, playing surface issue.
  2. Completely different scenario. A more fair comparison would be when they(and other florida teams) do move games due to Hurricanes.
  3. I know I am a homer, but playing around with this thing, I really like how the second half of this season is laying out for us. Miami has some tough games left on their schedule. @SF and @LAC, they get the packers at home and I am hoping that Rodgers has them going by that point, they did just beat the Cowboys and then most importantly, they have to come play us in Orchard Park. KC has a surprisingly good Seattle team, the Bengals ( i know we do too) and then a bunch of divisional games where anything can happen. We just need to handle our business and it starts this Sunday. LFGB!
  4. Are you criticizing Brady's grammar in a private text message to a "friend" of his? Seriously? Compared to how most texts are structured, this message was well thought out, didn't require paraphrasing, had punctuation, wasn't filled with slang, acronyms, misspelled words or emojis. Give the guy a break. Lol. I completely agree with you on thought 1 however.
  5. What about Tre White's career so far would lead anyone to question his desire to play? He is one of the highest energy players that I have ever seen. To insinuate that he is just choosing to sit out is boggling to me. From what I have read so far, he has been working incredibly hard to try and recoup and get back into football shape. Do you think that maybe, just maybe, there is a chance that the people who are in the building with him, working with him everyday might know a little bit more about his current readiness than us here on these boards? Do you think that maybe there are legitimate reasons why he was activated when he was, that affect not only him but also the rest of the roster moving forward to the end of this season and into the playoffs? Just my 2cents
  6. Not sure about BBMB. I have seen it mentioned on here multiple times though. i assume BBMB was Buffalo Bills Message Board? I know I have been a lurker on this forum for years and decided to start getting involved this year.
  7. Yes. It really is remarkable. I have been in since '04 and it has come a long ways even since then. When the internet is open to all-hands I typically have 1 tab open on facebook messenger talking to the wife and another open on this site, binging all of my Bills info until the internet cuts out again. it can get pretty intense onboard too because we all come from different places and have such varied rooting interests. So watching the games can be an adventure haha.
  8. The only thing that I can think of that I may have done to change the outcome of the game was that I changed out my computer monitor at my work desk, where i sit to watch the games) mere moments before the kickoff of the JETS game. These last 2 losses may be on me... I gotta find that old monitor.
  9. As I have mentioned before, I am in the military and am currently deployed so I have limited internet hours and limited access to content during that time. One thing that I have access to, and loads up fairly consistently, is this website and other forums. Likely because they are mostly text and not a lot of images. So I spend a lot of my free time browsing ours and other team's forums and I just want to say that this fan forum is one of the best ones in the league. There are so many people who contribute frequently (for better or worse haha). Almost all threads get significant views and responses. Our mods are active. Game day threads are like clockwork. I go to some other team's forums and it isn't the case at all. We may not always agree with each other on our topics but we should all agree that we have a pretty great thing here in this forum. I know this may come across as a LAMP post but that honestly isn't the intent.
  10. Well, thank you for recapping all of our collective miseries for us in one simple post. I guess we will see you back around draft time? No point in watching anymore since we will "ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS" find ways to lose.
  11. Not me. I haven't turned. In fact, I ordered 3 new Allen Jerseys last night out of spite of all of the people who have turned on him. And my wife and I decided to name our son (who is due in February) "Allen" as well. ... joking. ..or am I?
  12. Play 4 full quarters to our capability
  13. Yeah, and the ref appeared to be looking right at the play too. i don't know how you miss that.
  14. We will be fine. Our Opponents W-L total for the season so far is 50-33. We have a +99 Point differential throughout that stretch. The best in the NFL (pending the eagles game final, they are +90) For some context, here are Miami and KC's. The teams I think most people would consider our main roadblocks to home field. Miami 45-37 Pt Dif: +11 Obviously, that is not a fair representation of their capabilities when healthy with Tua. I am just pointing out the facts so far this season KC 40-44-1 Pt Dif: +64 What we are thought was going to be a juggernaut of a division is proving to be more of a cakewalk for the Chiefs and the entire AFC East is over 500. We are playing a First Place Schedule and the results are still there. 6-3 through 9 games played. Beat all 3 other AFC divisional leaders so far. We still have a chance to split with the Jets and the Dolphins when we get them at home. I think the Bills will rattle off a few wins in the coming weeks and people will look back to the past two weeks and realize they were 3 point losses against pretty good football teams.
  15. They say that it is supposed to be a safe way to create some wiggle room, especially with a giant as your QB. Execute the snap and push forward with assistance from Davis, even a half a foot. Do it again and the game is over. We were not able to execute the snap.
  16. I really thought this game was a tale of two defenses (both being the Bills') They forced two turnovers. Got a few sacks in pressure packed moments late to force multiple 4th downs including the 4th and 18. They had two amazing goal line stands. For the most part, they were fairly stout in run D. But They allowed the Vikings to convert way too many 3rd and 4th downs They gave up an 82 yard touchdown run They couldn't stop Jefferson in the 4th Q and overtime. I wonder if Edmunds being out the second half was a large contributor to their surge in production. (edit just saw chronicandknuckles saying the same thing a few posts before mine) He was a factor in the interception that Benford got because his length altered the throw. After their first drive, Minnesota really did not do much in the first half. That's just something that I was pondering in the hours after the game. Justin Jefferson made one of the best and most clutch catches I have ever seen. It just sucks it was against us.
  17. Another game that is being played on AFN for us military folks on deployment. Stoked I get to watch them play, in real time, again this year.
  18. McD playing 4d chess with the press
  19. Every game is an evaluation of your GM. Along with every draft pick, signing, release, extension and trade. Every move a GM makes is scrutinized, this game is no different. The thing that a lot of people struggle with is the sample size.
  20. I said that I understood what the OP was trying to say. Not that I necessarily agreed with him. I know that some people disagree with me here, but I think we have one of the best coaching staffs in the entire league.
  21. No. It is not a "good thing" that our all-world QB is hurt. I do understand what your intentions are with the thread though, that the coaches may be forced to look into different avenues to generate offense and it may provide versatility down the road. I just refuse to ever say that Josh being injured is a "good thing" in any way.
  22. With so many people wanting to jump off of a cliff or burn it all to the ground after a mid-season, divisional, road loss, I thought I would TRY to provide a little bit of perspective and hope. Looking into the past 5 Super Bowl winners, they all had points in their seasons where their fans likely assumed it was “a lost cause, all the players sucked, they were cursed and/or they probably should fire everyone.” 2021 Rams (12-5): Lost 3 games in a row (weeks 9-12 w/the bye in-between). Got beaten by SF twice including a 31-10 loss in week 10 and a loss in the season finale. 2020 Bucs (11-5): Lost 3 out of 4 mid-season (weeks 9-12) including a 38-3 thrashing by the Saints. Brady, I’m sure, was washed up, Arians had no idea how to coach, it was a failed experiment and they all needed to be fired. 2019 Chiefs (12-4): Lost 4 of 6 (Week5 – 10). This was the season where Mahomes was injured and missed some time. The initial fears on his injury were significant but he ended up only missing 2 games. The Chiefs went 1-1 in those games. 2018 Pats (11-5): Lost 2 of their last 4. Got stomped by Tennessee in week 10. Lost in week 14 in Miami on that crazy last second lateral walk-off play. They’d lose the next week against Pittsburgh to drop their record to 9-5. Their worst record through 14 games since 2008. I’m sure the sky definitely wasn’t falling in New England (sarcasm). 2017 Eagles (13-3): They were fairly dominant throughout their regular season but lost Wentz in week 13 for the season. It was their second loss and dropped their record to 10-2. I’m sure the Eagles fans felt cursed at the time. Had a “why can’t we have nice things” mentality. A sentimentality that I have seen expressed this week on this forum. Point being, Super Bowl caliber teams still lose an occasional game. Especially on the road against divisional rivals.
  23. I'll keep my thoughts brief: Poor game by Allen (despite him being our entire offense). Bad picks two weeks in a row. Clean it up. The Jets defense is as good as advertised. We have got to get healthier at some point. ( I hope ) It is a long season. The season will not be defined by a week 9 road loss in New Jersey. Get Milano, Rousseau, Poyer and White back for the Vikings next week and get back in the Win column. It'll be ok everyone.
