Totally, what reason is there to believe that the Front Office can strengthen the roster in an off season through draft and Free Agency? And you are so right, we know exactly what Josh Allen is, and there's no reason to believe that anyone at the QB position can change and grow... No evidence that can happen... Once a Wyoming QB always a Wyoming QB.

So you don't think it's likely the Bills will improve as much next year as they did this year? We're in position to add talent through the draft and FA, ton of cap space. Are contributing rookies will have a whole off season of NFL strength and conditioning, Oliver, D Johnson, Songletary, Knox... And Josh will have an entire off season to build on his improvements this year. But no chance of being better next year, huh?

The game day experience is ruined for me in large part by the pervasive negative attitude I've described in this post. I'm calling out a type of fan behavior, exhibited on this forum, that I despise. It's the behavior that turns me off, in the context of where the Bills are and where there's good reason to think they are going. I wish there were 2 game day threads. One to talk about what the Bills need to do to win, and one for posters to talk about who needs to be blamed and fired... I'd always post in the solution focused thread. But clicking through page after page of raw hatred just makes me want to leave and stop communicating on the forum with fellow Bills fans.

It's clear to me that the process McD preaches has several stages. He has achieved a major step, establishing a culture and roster that is playoff caliber. In 2 of his first 3 years the Bills are in the playoffs. After last year's 6-10 season, it would be extremely unrealistic for fans to expect or demand a "championship caliber team" this year. And yet, playing the top 2 teams in the AFC late in the season (Ravens and Pats) the Bills were within one score and had the ball in scoring position late in both games. There are clear improvements the team needs to make to move from playoff caliber to championship caliber, and the fact that those needs are clear is an amazing accomplishment! I am so encouraged that the next 3-5 years of Bills football is going to put the team in position to compete for the Super Bowl. At the same time, the number of delusional fans that expect the team to be championship caliber this year, and call for the firing of McD, or Daboll or Allen, well. In my opinion, you all deserve another 20 years of musical chairs at head coach and qb, and another 2 decade playoff drought... Maybe you can buy a billboard that calls for Josh Allen to be cut if it makes you feel like you have power? As for me, I'm looking forward to talking about ways to improve, to talk about what the Bills can do to make that transition from playoff caliber to championship caliber. But I don't have the need to have a public crucifixion after a Bills loss, to call for blood to satisfy my inability to accept disappointment... I'm looking forward to the playoffs, and I'm excited to see what adjustments the coaching staff makes to get better themselves. But I'm not expecting a championship this year, and that's ok. Because the Bills aren't championship caliber yet. And that's ok.

Josh makes hard throws, misses easy ones

20 points is the key to victory tomorrow

So many little things in that game... The catch that Smoke made and got tackled on the 1 yard would have been a TD if the Bills hadn't have taken a delay of game penalty the play before. Then the refs spot the ball at the 2, instead of the 1... Tomorrow is going to take every inch to win. -

Josh has only thrown 3 INT's since the Pats game, 12 weeks ago. We need to protect the ball on all fronts, no strip sacks and fumbles to give them a short field! -
Joe B All-22 vs Steelers - Cody Ford has best game at RT

Getting Harry back next year, you gotta love the depth on the D-Line. -

I'm pretty sure the Bills see Taylor and are using him as a 1 Technique. He has more of a long term potential to replace Star. -
"Lo Down" with Lorenzo Alexander this week

I hope he can get in Jerry's head on this point, and help keep him cool when it happens. -

Daboll needs to game plan short, quick routes against 0 coverage. Waiting on intermediate to long routes to develop killed the Bills against Baltimore. -

Jonathon Jones is ruled out, and Jason McCourty may not play either. They've had 4 solid cb's in man coverage all year, but with 2 down they may have to adjust their scheme. Or there may be a liability to exploit. -

It's interesting that they also mention the play of Vincent Taylor. I only him on one play, but holy ***** did he single handedly blowup Pouncey and their attempt to run up the middle.
