    Every time there are two people who often get mentioned together someone is there to say that it sounds like a law firm.  What's with that?

    That is because when watching TV every other commercial is for a law firm.

    Perhaps, but Grandpa and Grandma are having difficulty paying the electric bill. 😕

    Not the best comparison. The electric rates are a lot lower than what I used to pay with Niagara Mohawk, or whatever they call themselves these days. Of course, they can't afford to Insure their homes or cars.

  3. I have a simple and surprisingly quite effective of explaining Lake Effect Snow to people here in South Florida. Down here, especially in the summer we can have a situation where one area can have torrential downpours while the sun is shining less than a mile away as the rain bands come off the ocean. I used to live north of Syracuse and can remember many times driving home from work in bright sunshine and when I get past the Cicero exit of I-81 it was whiteout with heavy snow. When I explain it that way to the locals, they seem to understand.

    If you preferred the Bills play in a snowy windstorm, after watching that ridiculous Mac Jones 3 pass game, in a situation  where again the biggest mismatch is your offense compared to the opponent’s offense, with the entire season on the line, you are an idiot full stop.  An extra day of rest is nice, but it’s not a bye week and the opponent is the one who has to deal with travel while the Bills rest up in their homes. 

    That is the first thing I thought about when I saw the weather reports, The Pats game. Don't want a repeat of that. Stay safe up there.

    That was me.  I've only posted there a couple of times...always after someone disses Josh and they call him arrogant.  I chose to be nice and respectful...that's how I go through life in general.   It's how I was raised.  Sorry if it offends you.    

    Sometimes being nice and respectful irritates an irrational person more than lowering yourself to their level.

    Well done.

    Titans hitting the Jags in the mouth right now. Gotta keep pressing the gas if you are the Titans plenty of time left. If you can get this next defensive stop it will really put the Jags on the ropes.

    If they keep pounding it on the ground, Jaguars defense will be gassed in the 4th quarter.

  7. The Dolphins loss last night makes it simple. The Bills have to win 1 more game than the Dolphins in the next 3 weeks to play for the AFCE title in Miami in week 17.

    I can see both the Bills and Dolphins losing to Dallas, and the fins losing to Baltimore. It almost looks like our chances of winning the AFCE title are better than a wild card  with the tie breakers. Dolphins are one of the only teams in the playoff picture that we have a tie breaker with.

  8. If the Bills continue to play the way they have played the past 6 weeks, I am beginning to think they wont even finish with a winning record.

    NY Jets - Their offense sucks, but there defense is strong -toss up.

    Philadelphia- Pretty strong on both sides of the ball- would take a miracle to beat them. - loss

    KC- Mahomes is pretty much back to form and their defense is strong. The Denver loss was a fluke because Mahomes was sick.  loss

    Dallas- That defense is strong and the offense is getting better - Loss

    L.A. Chargers. Road game against a team that can put up points, but can falter like the Bills have been doing - toss-up

    N.E- Good defense, may be able to force enough turnovers to stay in it but their offense really sucks. - win

    MIA- We all know what their offense can do. They should have the AFCE locked up by then. Since the Bills will most likely be eliminated from playoff contention by then this may be a meaningless game for both teams unless Miami is playing for playoff seeding. Either way the revenge factor comes in -loss.

    I see 1 win, 2 toss ups and 4 losses. Worst case scenario 6-11 most likely 7-10-9-8

    Unless they find a cure for whatever they got in London I just don't see much hope for playoffs.

  9. I have lived in the Fort Lauderdale area for 20 years now and there are plenty of Bills fans down here. 2 examples. A week ago Sunday I was at the gym. There were maybe 30-35 people there. I saw at least 5 people with Bills gear, hats t-shirts etc. There was one person with Cowboys and 1 with Dolphins. I said "Go Bills to one of the guys in a Bills shirt. Next thing I know 4 more people joined in 

     Another instance was about a year ago. I was getting my car washed and when it was done they announced that the car with the Buffalo Bills license frame was done. Some guy in the waiting room in a Dolphins had yelled Boooo Bills suck. Next thing I hear is a few guys in the back of the room singing the shout song. The Fins fan stood there shocked and said "There are more Bills fans here than Dolphins fans. Of course me being the wise ass that I am could not help replying " Just like at the stadium!" He went and sat in the corner. I had to go get my car so I don't know what happened after that.

    Statistically?  Absolutely NOT!

     

    Getting that first week bye is HUGE.

     

    This year was weird, but that's a single data point.

     

    That's not how statistics work.

     

     

    This whole season was weird. How many times did one of the best teams in the league go up against one of the worst teams only to lose the game.
