All the assistants are doing it, and have done this for years. If the Bills were 5-12 and searching for a head coach we’d be thrilled they were interviewing the hot guys this week.
Would we have something against ugly guys?

Guardian caps are fine for practice, but they look dumb as hell on the football field. And I saw Romeo Doubs get another head injury and lay in the end zone for a while last week even though he was wearing one. Whats the point? If players are afraid of getting concussions then don't play

The 13 seconds team was a Super Bowl team that lost because of a stupid coaching blunder that should have never happened

So was haurbaugh and still is.
I never heard anything about Harbaugh back then. But the stories about Kelly are well known

punched Jim Kelly in the mouth after Jim made comments that Harbaugh was not that good. after punching Jim he suffered a broken hand. he missed the remainder of the season that the Colts ended up tanking which put the Colts first to get Payton Manning.
He's also trash for cheating, trash for being at Ichigan. He should have stayed up there but they did not want to have that foul cheater up there.
To be fair, Kelly was a major prick back in the day

I will give credit where credit is due, really good post buddy and I appreciate you taking the time to dig into the stats.
Fron the 2022 team stats aside, something just felt off with that team- Kind of reminded me of the Minnesota Vikings in a way, where they really didn't pass the smell test, even though the record was good
This year feels different. And I am the furthest thing from a homer, if anything I am on the slighty pessimistic side.
Health for sure is important to your point- We will see what happens- Going to be a dog fight on Sunday
I honestly am starting to think that the issues with the 2022 and 2023 teams was Dorsey. Our offense ran like a well oiled machine in 2020 and 2021 under Daboll. In 2022 it started where Daboll left off but then became less creative and it seemed like even though we were winning games, everything looked so much harder. The offense that ran so well the 2 years prior had to scrape and scrape to get points on the board it looked like. The first 10 games of 2023 was the same thing. It started off good but then the same struggles started again and we finally cut ties with Dorsey after going 5-5. You started seeing the differences with Brady calling plays but it wasn't fully gelling yet. Now in 2024, without Diggs and Allen spreading the ball around. It seems like the Bills are scoring much easier again like they did in 2020 and 2021 but even better. The defense isn't quite as good but our offense putting up 30 or more a game helps and I do agree it feels a lot different.

Maybe- I saw the flaws before that though as well.
They were on the verge of getting absolutely destroyed in Cincinnati, before the game was cancelled
There were flaws. Like I said to someone else, the engine was on fumes before that. The engine died when Hamlin went down

I'm not sure I believe this affected their play THAT much. Even before the Cincy game we were losing steam & Allen was playing just OK. He had one really good game against the Dolphins near the end of the year, one pretty bad game against the Bears, and the rest was ok.
It felt like the Green Bay game was a turning point. Started off hot, then we started playing poorly, throwing a lot of INTs, and then we carried that forward to losing our next 2 games. Every game after that felt sloppy, even though we won out. Nearly every game was close, and it seemed like the team was struggling way more than normal.
Surely, Damar's injury affected them. But by the time the Cincy game came around, Damar was ok & going to games & supporting the boys again.
Correct, they were losing steam but the Damar thing is what ended it all. The engine was running on fumes and the engine died when Damar went down. You think 2 weeks after a teammate dies on the field that they are still in the right state of mind? I think that was the number 1 factor

Sullivan could be a butthead and abrasive, but he always told the truth.
His article post Super bowl 25 was spot on and I still have it in my sports collection.
The 22 bills is called terrible luck. It happens and I'm proud of the way they fought still.
What was his article post about Super Bowl 25? The fact that the Giants had this incredible game plan that stopped the Bills? The Bills could have easily won that game had they adjusted to what the Giants were doing. But they were way to stubborn to do so because like what Frank Reich said "they were gonna live and die with what got them there". Belichick said in his own words that he invited the Bills to run the whole game and the Bills wouldn't take it and he was actually happy we didn't because he knew they would be in trouble. Ironically, Thurman only had 15 carries in that game for 135 yards and a TD. If he has 25 to 30 carries, he probably goes over 200 and we win easily. So, it wasn't this amazing game plan that Belichick had. It was the Bills being to ignorant to change theirs. So, if his article was something praising the Giants game plan in that game, then no, I wouldn't consider it anything special and doesn't make him right at all

The first half of the year, 100 percent agreed.
But it was obvious towards the end of the year that they were going nowhere.
Wasnt it Jerry Sullivan who said the awkward offence statement to Josh towards the end of the year when he told him- "this doesn't look like a Super Bowl offence".
He is a jerk, but he was right.
That 2022 team was cursed, and anyone who feels the same coming out of that Skylar Thompson playoff win, to the team we have now, I would respectfully question their memory/judgement
Everyone talks about that game against the Dolphins barely beating Skyler Thompson, but no one wants to consider the fact that it was 2 weeks after the Hamlin thing and I still think they were not in the right frame of mind. That season was over when Hamlin went down against Cincinnati

That’s a huge blunder but the Cincinnati game you credit to him as well. Especially as a HC.When your whole team comes out as flat as they did against the Bengals, there’s a bigger problem. now I know the whole Hamlin thing happened but that shouldn’t have equated to what did. It should have been a galvanizing and motivational point for the team especially with who it was against. The loss wasn’t the problem it’s how it unfolded.
Overall, I agree. In terms of blunders that’s the only one I can attribute too.I think that Cincinnati game had to do with the team not being on the right mindset due to the Hamlin thing and then the rumors or what happened at Josh's house the night before when the cops were apparently called there in the middle of the night. The whole team was just mentally screwed

No worries man. To each their own. I considered taking the bus this week but I wanted to get there early and was concerned about not having any shelter for my father who is an older gentleman so we drove and parked in the ADA lot. Easy in, awful out.
What is ADA?

Nfta runs it. It goes from McKinley (and other places). They have a schedule.
https://metro.nfta.com/schedules/game-day-express
Not there there's anything wrong with it, but this might also be the first person in Bills history to sit in a club seat and also ride the NFTA bus to the game.
I was only wondering how much club seats were because I got one for free one time from my Brother in Law's boss. He had an extra ticket left over and my brother in law asked me if I wanted to go and we were able to sit in the Jim Kelly club but I never knew how much the seats were. I'm not rich by any means lol. The shuttle thing, I just hate dealing with leaving the stadium after the game

if you don't mind me asking, what did you get for it?
The tickets in the section I had were going for around 160. I sold it for $155 but only got $140 from ticketmaster or stubhub because they charged me a resale fee. Only issue is, I have to wait until 7 days after the game to get my money for it which is stupid.

Go ahead....call me a wimp. I sold my ticket because I don't wanna be too cold and would rather sit in my warm living room. Come on lay into me people. Make me buy a ticket again

It's like 5 bucks for 2 ways .. not sure about McKinley id have to check
Ok cool. If you find anything out, let me know. I feel like it would be wise for the Bills to set something up with the McKinley mall to do that

There are shuttles from multiple places in Erie county that take you to the stadium
I've taken the shuttle from the Thruway Mall Transit center on Harlem Rd
Very convenient
How much does that cost?

Also, do you know of any closer to the stadium? I would love if I could park my car at the McKinley Mall and get a shuttle from there

I've got a pair in section 232 if you're interested. I'll beat the prices and insane fees you'll have to pay through stubhub. Send me a message or respond in this thread of interested. They are row 3, seats 1 and 2 on the aisle
I just sent you a private message

Jim Kelly Club = Pepsi Club
Gotcha. I was not aware it was different now. I'm just trying to find out how to get some tickets for it
-
People sitting in the Jim Kelly club, how do you go about purchasing tickets? Can you buy them off stubhub or ticketmaster or is there another way of purchasing them? Also, does anyone know where I can find a shuttle service to the stadium? Thanks

If the Rams got to the Super Bowl, it wouldn't surprise me. I think they can beat Philly and can get Detroit on the right day

Nah, I said I was scared. Im not shivering in a corner or anything but Id rather play Chiefs/Bengals than the Ravens with both Lamar and Henry. We can still win and Im not going to be a Debbie Downer all week, but thats the worst matchup for us IMO.
I never agree with this take except for possible weather concerns where its nice now but wont be later. Not only do you take away your chance to double dip, but if you don't score that first drive you essentially gave the other team a double advantage.
I get that but I want to take the wind out of the Ravens sails as quick as possible. Scoring on the first drive could throw them off a bit and you want to stay a step ahead
Personally, this Ravens matchup is my "McDermott Game."

So, if we give up 30 and we still win and beat the Ravens, then McDermott's job is still on the line?
