Why the hate for Mahomes? I personally want K.C. to win. I want to see a high scoring offense win. After how last years Super bowl ended, I don't want to see a ground and pound team win.

I have always felt they have focused too much on the defense. The way the league is now having an above average offense goes a lot farther then a top defense. All the teams left were in the top half for points and offense total. I know a lot of Bills fans wish it would go back to the way it used where defense matters but I don't see that changing.

A little each season isn't good enough. I get that a lot of you don't want to start over again but by year 3 Allen should make a big jump. He should be in the top half for QBs. If not they should start looking for better. Why so many Bills fans have low expectations is beyond me.

That isn't good enough. At some point he needs to make a big jump. The playoffs has shown you need you QB and offense to put up more points then what the Bills averaged. 17-19 points is not good enough. Next season will be a big test. There is no way they have such an easy schedule playing so many teams below .500 again.

@Joe in Winslow what is so funny about what I said? The Sabres have one of the best home records. If they can improve their road record they can get back in the playoff race. If they can go .500 the rest of the season on the road it will help them get back in it Right now they are only 7 points out. Its funny how you will BILLieve in anything the Bills do but look down on the Sabres. They rebuilt the defense last off season. They have a good goalie in their system that will solve that issue. Their biggest issue right now is scoring. Part of that is cause Oloffson and Skinner are out.

I don't get the obsession with adding to the defense. The Bills should be making the offense the priority in FA and the draft. These playoffs have shown you need to score points to win. The Bills offense didn't do enough of that.

For the ones who are down on the Sabres for not being better, have any of you looked at their home record. On home ice they have one of the better records in the league. If they can figure out how to win more on the road they can be right in the playoff mix again.

I am hoping for a Green Bay/KC super bowl. I have no interest in watching Titans/ 49ers game. I want to see high passing offenses. I don't understand the love for smash mouth Rockpile days football.

My only concern is top defenses are hard to keep together for multiple seasons. I can see in a few seasons the defense taking a few steps back. Yes the Bills are in good position to be a playoff team but I don't think they are close at all. Til Allen and the offense can prove they can score more then 19 points week in and week out I doubt the Bills will go far when they make the playoffs. I hope K.C. wins it all cause I like seeing high powered offenses. I don't know why so many Bills fans want to go back to the Rockpile days with lots of running the ball and great defense.

Blue collar is two words I am tired of hearing. For some reason a lot of Bills fans seem to like using those words to describe their team.

Not surprised. The Sabres have high numbers when on national TV too.

That's the Buffalo way. A lot want that lunch pail blue collar team. Hate to break it to a lot of you but you need high end talent to win.

I agree, he's JAG. I think the reason guys love him so much is he's a blue collar guy and he's the best the Bills have had in a long time. Both of which aren't saying much.

Until McDermott stops being conservative on offense when he has a lead, nothing is going to change.

There is always the other team in town that are good at home. Or are you like most Bills fans and don't Ike the Sabres or hockey.

Who cares. Its sad that Bills fans have to resort to such low accomplishments.

Maybe elite isn't the word. Those QBs are great but not on the same level as the top 5 ones.

If you read what thebandit27 posted a few posts above yours that is what a franchise QB is. They are the guys that don't always need everything to go right for them to win. All those QBs you mentioned had everything go right for them to win. Yes they are elite QBs but not franchise ones.

I consider them a tier below the top QBs. That's where I think Allen will most likely end up. They are good but most likely not going to carry their offense like Brees, Rogers and Mahomes do.

Close. IMO franchise QBs are the top 5 QBs in the league. I don't consider a QB that starts multiple seasons a franchise QB. Tannehill has been been a starter for multiple seasons and no one considers him a franchise QB.

He may be the starting QB for that long but IMO that doesn't equal franchise QB. IMO examples of franchise QB's are Brady, Brees, Rogers and Mahomes is starting to belong in that category. Guys that are top 10 in passing, TDs and completion %. I see Allen more in the tier below.

Can't you just get ABC over the air with an antenna? Does anyone use an antenna anymore?

I think that's the way the Atlantic Division is going to go all season. Tampa doesn't look like they are turning it around any time soon and the Leafs are still bad defensively with no backup goalie. I don't either team going on a run.

I agree but it's one thing if they were at the bottom of the standings this season again. Right now they are fighting for a playoff spot. That's more then fans can hope for considering where they finished last season.

They are fighting for a playoff spot so far this season. Its an improvement over last season. There isn't much available trade wise to help this team. It would have been nice to have Hall but not for the price Arizona paid to get him.
