    Time to put my money where my mouth is.  No excuses, this is the most complete Bills roster since the late 90s and they will prove it on the field.  No glaring holes at any position, and quality depth throughout.  Backup QB is a question mark, so the health of Josh Allen is key.  Provided he stays healthy, I see the Bills going 6-0 in the East, and of the remaining ten games there is only one — @SF — in which I think they will go in as an underdog.  The W5 matchup with KC is likely a pick’em, because I expect Buffalo to be 4-0 going into that one.  They’ll be favored in every other home game and the road games are not particularly daunting outside of Tennessee.  Arizona is a media darling but they are unproven and have a suspect defense.  Vegas is still, in my opinion, a mess.  Denver may be a bit better but I’m not sold on Fangio or Lock.

     

    I’ll give them losses to KC, San Fran, and a couple we don’t expect — maybe Tennessee, Pittsburgh, or the roadie at NE***.

     

    AFC East champs and the #2 seed in the playoffs.

     

    There ya have it.

    Exactly as I see it too with the exception of 5-1 (Hate to say it but Miami loss) in east but beating SF.  

  3. With Fitz you felt like any game he could throw for 450yrd and have 5 TD.  He equally could throw for 450 yards And have 5 picks.  Either way he was trying to win at all costs.

     

    With TT he could throw for 210 and have a pair of TD or he could throw for 85 yards with no TD but have a completion % of 80.  I always felt his style of play was to protect certain stats that made him look good and compensate for lack of killer instinct. Great athlete but too conservative for the position

    So he wants a new deal? I don’t completely disagree with that. 

     

    The thing about this season, now especially with covid cases , opt outs, and this new false positive issue is even if you do well it will instantly comes with a built in asterisk. 

     

    Im not saying we’d win a championship but even if we did it would feel like a pretty greasy first championship. 

    First, I’d pay Tre.  Not even a question.

     

    I dont necessarily agree with the super bowl being Greasy.    If you beat a superior team, but they had injuries its still a win.  Beat a superior team because of a bad call, its still a win.  You can only play with what’s given at the time, and with whatever resources are available.  So although I’d love to win a Super Bowl in a “normal” year, winning one in the middle of a pandemic under totally different stressors, might actually have a bit more flare-at least it will always be a bit more memorable!  

     

    Now if its 7 on 7 and flag football that’s a totally different story.....

  5. I dont see this as a LJ sucks thread,  because he obviously doesn’t.  I don’t think he is overly bright outside of football and his incredibly generic quote on AB And their locker room reflects that.  I also see him becoming much more limited as teams force his weaknesses.  Once that happens that’s when you need brain power to overcome those weaknesses-and he just doesn’t seem to have much.

     

    As for AB, he’s an idiot, and I dont buy the mental illness angle one bit.  An A-hole is and A-hole and acting stupid doesn’t mean your ill, sometimes your just a stupid A-hole, with too much money and can get away with it, until the moneys gone.  

     

    Bring him into the locker room, half way through the season and see where it gets you?  My bet, ticked off players who busted there butts the first 8 games, media hype of the wrong type, and a now emboldened A$$hat who wants the attention.  Great way to kill a locker room, but makes for entertainment.

    Dak is definitely a QB that puts you in a tough spot as a franchise.  
     

    He’s good.  Probably not great.  
     

    You can make the playoffs with him, but probably need a lot of talent around him to advance in the Playoffs.  
     

    You can’t surround him with a ton of talent if you’re paying him what he’s looking for.  
     

    He has Zeke, one of the best OL’s in football, along with one of the best WR units in Gallup/Cooper, now add Lamb.  If you want to keep that offense together, with Dak, you’re going to have to rely on minimum contracts and rookie contracts to field a defense. 
     

    At the same time, if you don't pay him... someone else likely will.   Dak knows that.  His agent knows that. Dallas knows that.  
     

    Do you pay him, with your ceiling likely being consistent playoff contender?... That’s not a bad ceiling, but if the goal is to win Championships, he’s probably not the guy.  
     

    This is also taking into account the potential that he keeps improving as he’s still a young(er) QB, but doesn’t really possess any elite traits in arm strength, mobility, accuracy, reading defenses etc.  

     

    Very difficult decision if I’m Dallas - I honestly don’t know what I’d do.   If you pay him, you’re just “hoping” he still makes another jump that his career/skill level doesn’t indicate he will.  

    Well said, well said.

    I guess I’m asking WHY he will struggle in the Super Bowl? He’s played well in the playoffs. Whats the reasoning?  I mean, I’d understand if someone said “Andy Dalton will never win a Super Bowl” when he was in his prime. He has been horrendous in the playoffs. It’s easy to say, “he doesn’t have it.” Dak has been a very good playoff player. I am trying to understand but it isn’t making sense?

    Mental toughness.  He’s a guy, like Newton who believes his own hype. Guys like that rarely win.  My observation only.

    What specifically haven’t you liked about his playoff performances? He’s scored 7 TDs (includes 2 rushing) vs. 2 INTs. He has completed over 64% of his passes for 265 yards a game. His team averaged 26 points a game in his playoff starts. Just not sure why we think he struggles in the playoffs?

    What I stated was he will not win you a Super Bowl.  He will win you some playoff games, but nothing more.  Again my opinion, but I think from watching him he doesn’t have it in him to do that.   There will always be an excuse, and always a media show about how his team didn’t come through.  Look at the newly minted Pats QB Newton.  He, in his prime was better than Prescott, and may still even be now.  See how he crumbled when the SB required more than he had to offer.  And he was league MVP, had weapons, had the skill etc.-just didn’t have the mental toughness.  That’s why It’s so sickening to hear nonstop coverage as if he is the best QB in the history of QB.  Brady didn’t even get this much coverage and he is a proven winner.   Dak could be a great guy-never heard otherwise, but I just cant stand the hype.

    I respect your opinion a ton. I’ve watched him since college, I just think he has been given every opportunity to succeed and he has been good not great. If he wants to get paid more than Wilson, you got to let him walk. Dalton, with that talent might put to rest how good Dak is. 

    I agree.  There are guys that can win games and there are guys that can win playoff games, then there are guys that can win you super bowls.  Dak doesn’t have the mental character to win the last from anything Ive seen.  Paying more than Wilson, or putting him in that same category is plain wrong.

    Turn off ESPN and you’ll feel better imo

    Tried.  I travel for work 3-4 days per week, and NETFLIX gets old fast.  Turn on something sports related and within 10 minutes its Dak and Cowboys.  Check the news feed its the same.  More talk about a mediocre player and overplayed team than needed.  Just sick to death of a non-sorry about a player turning down millions while real people cant pay the bills.

    I’m so sick of people talking about Dak that I’m going to start a thread where people can talk about Dak. ?

    Scroll  back a few, this tired reply used early on as expected.

    what BS...it's a contract negotiating and it's the only actual football news out there. If you're tired of it just ignore....Cowgirls....really?

    Someone else is cranky too I see

  12. It’s been a long week and maybe I’m just cranky, but am I the only one completely sickened by the coverage of Dak Prescott?  My lord, the whole thing is being crammed down our throats as if he was the only QB playing this season.  Is it my total hatred of the Cowgirls, my complete dislike of Dak and Zeeke and Jones?  

     

    Tell me I’m not the only one who hates this totally overhyped player and all the BS surrounding him!

  13. It’s telling that of the 31 remaining teams that could have given him a deal, only 1 late in the dance gave him an option-at league minimum.  Maybe they know something that us fans just don’t.  

     

    He is a shell of himself and from what I see, doesn’t have the mental fortitude to handle it-especially if he doesn’t make it as the starter.  Now wouldn’t that be fun to watch here in NE!

    Do you guys feel coaches and management will make the necessary adjustments to truly make this team 'Championship Caliber' moving forward?  Personally, I don't think what we saw in the regular season will cut it.

    Stop, just stop.  You obviously have zero clue on building a team of any type.   Go back to your parents basement and have Chinese food while whacking to the internet.

    The truly sad part is that Roman had Tyrod playing his best football. He designed an offense to play to his QB's strengths and now is doing it in Baltimore. We fire him while Rex ruins a great Schwartz defense.  McD comes in and blows up the offense, while hiring an OC that plays to the QB's weaknesses.  I have no doubt Josh could be doing what Lamar is doing and more in the right offense.

     

    This conservative ball coddling, sack of sh*t offense is holding everyone else down. Don't tell me Baltimore has more playmakers on offense than us. It's a wash. It's just this horrible offensive "wannabe-a-patriot" bulls*t that's screwing up what could be a great season.  TBD posters are right!  Unleash the F'Kin Kracken!

     

    I agree!!!  Unleash that F’en Kracken and let’s destroy the whole lot of ‘em.   

     

    Ive been screaming this at the TV all season
