    If they’re going to win in the playoffs ( especially beyond the WC round) , Daboll will have to open it up when they get a lead. The running on first down habit will have to go away as well. They can’t win when they’re in third and 6+ all day. 

    I agree 100%. If Daboll can be more creative in the playoffs and not be as conservative, I think it is possible to make a deep run. We have the defense. If we get this offense going, it's not impossible to think we can go far

    The Bills defense can keep them in every game, but the offense is just severely limiting to their chances. That includes the coordinator and his lack of creativity and feel for the game. In my estimation , the Saints with Bridgewater would still be significantly superior to the Bills in their ability to go deep in the playoffs. The Bills need to get a lead and hold on, as their ability to score late in a tight game is just fair to average at best. 

    One of our main problems on offense is sitting on leads and being to conservative when we're up instead of keeping our foot on the gas. This is a very fixable problem. Daboll's playcalling is a major issue in certain situations. All we need to do is be more consistent offensively and learn to score more between 25-30 points a game consistently. If we do that then there is no reason to think that we can't make a deep run into the playoffs this year.

    I disagree. A team still has to have the necessary ingredients to make that run, even if their regular season didn’t reflect it. Sometimes a team will just get hot in the playoffs and it carries them through. Thinking that every team in the playoffs has the same chance to win the championship is folly. Being realistic about what the Bills have and don’t have isn’t stupid. They’re in a rebuild and having success while covering up major flaws. That’s a result of good coaching , but they’ll need to take it to another level in the playoffs. You really can’t compare the Bills with a developing QB to a team with a future HOF QB that was in the NFC title game last season. You could , but some might call that “ plain stupid”. 

    We have a championship caliber defense that gives us a chance in every game. And I don't think every team has the same chance I just think people are severely underestimating our team. I honestly don't think us and the Saints are that far off. The Saints lost to a 5 win Falcons team when they were just 1-7 earlier in the year. Honestly, if the Saints were still playing with Bridgewater do you think they would still be that much better? Any team can do anything in the playoffs. I do think "ingredients" are important but I think you're only looking at it one way.

    I think the Bills can win in HOU and it looks like TEN can win a road game at Arrowhead. PIT ? I don’t think so. Anyway, it’s the NFL and the first round always has upsets. 

    If you’re trying to compare the Saints current team / roster to the Bills you are way off base. They have a future HOF QB, studs all over the place and are absolutely in a “ win a championship now” mode and have been for a few seasons. 

    Any team that makes the playoffs can make a super bowl run in any given year so when someone says that when their team is in the playoffs is just plain stupid. The Saints just gave up two 40 yard TDs on defense. If that happens with us then we are "still a year away" or "this team is a joke" or something stupid.

    The history is tough to review, but it doesn’t mean much. There are only two players, and zero coaches on this team who even played the Steelers last time they met 3 years ago, let alone 20 years ago. While this current team has never played on SNF, many of the players have on other teams before coming to the Bills and have experienced success. If the Bills lose it will have nothing to do with the history of the Steelers or SNF. 

    I'm not saying I don't think we'll win. I just found it interesting that we haven't beaten them since Kordell Stewart was their QB
