We're talking about different things I think... I'm talking about Bills fan inferiority complex and agnst due to national pundits' spin on Bills games, not at all what goes on within the organization...
What I'm saying is similar. Fans care about the media and other fans. The organizations could give two shots less. I was mocking the fans who are worried about the way we won and what the media is saying.

I think your missing the point. W's & L's are definitely all that matters in the end, but national media coverage of this organization has been a very sore topic of many Bills fans for 20+ years. Why is that if all that matters is W's & L's?
No that is exactly my point. The final score is all that matters. Do you think how we won matters to anyone inside One Bills Drive. It only matters to some on Two Bills Drive.

I don’t think anything gets done. Feel like Beane won’t admit he made several missed calls in FA. Team seems to be set for better or worse.
Beane had no way of knowing Star and Gaines were going to opt out and know way of knowing the NFL were going to ignore holding and neutralize how our D works.
I also don't see anyone available that will help us. We need a 1tech.

So now the wins aren't convincing enough?
The Giants didn't beat us in SB 25. We lost it. So Belichik technically must only have 7 rings because somehow that one doesn't count.😉

We played like dog ***** against a patchwork patriot team that has a qb that cant throw a football and we should have lost.
Minus saying we won....there is nothing else positive about this win.
We scored 24 points against a good D.

Has the NFL provided an official explanation for the virtual elimination of holding penalties against O Lineman? I have not heard anything and it seems like this would be a much bigger topic. You can routinely see blatant holding penalties that would have been called in prior seasons go unflagged. With the unprecedented offensive output, I would expect that to be accompanied by questions about reasons for the drastic change. I’m also surprised that more defensive players aren’t complaining about this change.
If you watch these games closely you will see our DL constantly getting hooked up under their arms and jersey twisted around OLs hand by the collars constantly. This is the demise of our D this year.
Our D relies on penetrating into the backfield quickly and disrupting the timing of the play. That isn't possible if OL are allowed to arm-bar the defender.

One trend I've noticed in the last 3-4 games is that Allen has a huge amount of time in the pocket, but is just not pulling the trigger—at least not until very late. I can't quite figure out if it's Allen not trusting his receivers, or if the receivers just aren't getting separation. It seems incredibly unlikely that it's the latter, given the quality of our WRs and what we saw in the first few weeks. Especially this last game, against a NE**** team that was down their best CB and really had sub-par DBs.
It sure seemed like the first 4 games Josh was getting rid of it early, and trusting his WRs to make the catch even in tight windows. Is he just not doing it as much now? Or are our WRs just not getting the separation they were getting earlier in the season? Just baffling to me.
Or could it be bad weather, injuries and heavy numbers of DBs.

Well, I'm not comparing Jackson to Allen.
My point is that BAL could spend money/draft picks and get a big, stud WR, but it would be a waste of $$/a pick.
Jackson's brain doesn't work fast enough to get beyond the first read and he can't read defenses. As someone mentioned upstream, teams know that he can't hit the perimeters with accuracy and he lives over the middle of the field.
Any decent defense can just take away those tight ends over the middle and stop the run.
Making Lamar be a QB is the key to beating the Ravens and teams with good coaching/defense can do that. Again ... as proven in the playoffs.
I disagree and you act like you have a pile of playoff games as evidence. It's year three for him just as it is for our guy. I wouldn't go making the final chapter of your book yet.
I don't necessarily disagree with some of what you say the way to beat him is to contain him.

He's had multiple ugly games this year throwing the football, but he makes up for it with those busted play 3 yard TD passes that pad his stats. Outside of the Cleveland game in week one where he threw for 275yds, his best game has been a 208yd passing performance. Against the Chiefs he average 3.5 YPA and against the Redskins 4.9 YPA. His team is making up for his deficiencies right now and that's fine. But like others have noted, it isn't conducive for playoff success especially if they get down by two or three scores.
That's who he is and the offense he plays in. I haven't seen a game yet where he cost his team the win like I did last year. Let me know how it looks at the end of the season.
Even Rodgers and Brady have bad games.

He's had WRs. They don't have a WR problem. They have a QB who can't throw to the sidelines problem.
He has a WR in my Opinion and one other guy that's decent. If you think the only reason for our passing game is JAs development I got news for you. It's good for a QB when going 3 wide actually means something.
46 minutes ago, Gugny said:They didn't win a playoff game. How did they get awful close?
He got to the playoffs didn't he. He will get to the playoffs every year he plays.

Ok, but he hasn't improved every year as you claimed.
I disagree. Let me know when he has a game where he is completely lost and throws 1 TD and 3 Ints. His division is a lot tougher this year and teams have the formula to beat him. He is adjusting and still winning. The "Anti-Lamar" crowd is almost as bad as the anti JA crowd there are just a lot less of them.
I'm speaking as someone who felt he was over hyped and thought he was going to fall flat on his face this season.

Not according to this. Looks like he has regressed a bit from last year's form. I live in VA and we always get the Baltimore games. I've watched him 3 or 4 times this year already. He still can't hit a throw outside the hashes with any consistency, has trouble when forced to hang in the pocket, and his deep ball this year is not there. Where he hurts you is when the play breaks down and his TE's or WR's are running with him to find some space. He's excellent at finding the perfect dumpoff receiver while scrambling.
That's better than a lot of QBs in this league.
Lamar is Never going to be MVP as a passer. But good luck finding a QB that is as dangerous as he is as a runner. He is a different kind of QB than people are used to, make no mistake he is a QB and a very good one.
I love my Bills but the Ravens would demolish us right now and can beat any team any given Sunday.

I honestly don't think it matters who their QB is, Jimmy G is league average at best, Mullins really isn't much of a downgrade. It's their running game that scares the bejeeezus out of me. They'll have some injured RBs back by then too, we'll be lucky to hold them under 150 yards rushing.
I'd have to double-check but it didn't look very good against a Seahawks D that may be worse than ours.

Individual awards are nice (and he deserved the MVP). But the Ravens will never come close to winning a super bowl as long as Lamar Jackson is their QB. Playoff defenses will continue to prove that.
He got awful close last season. Theories are nice but you really can't back up your statement. Give him a Diggs and see how he does. His WR corps isn't Josh Allen's and just like Allen he improves every year.

I never said he wasn't good. Over half the teams in the league would love to have him.
But many acted like he broke football last year and the Ravens were geniuses for unlocking it. He's got a lot of growing to do and it's showing badly.
To be honest with you, I didn't feel he was the MVP. I felt that was Wilson.
1 hour ago, PetermansRedemption said:🤔 isn’t this about the Ravens and Marquise Brown?
He’s the expert of the 5 yard TD to a TE. If you need him to air it out, best to find someone else.
It is. But what I said was relevant to the post I was responding to unlike your irrelevant response to mine. I was giving the Steelers credit rather than blaming Lamar.

They are irrelevant to the conversation.
Lamar was supposed to be revolutionizing football last year. He laid an egg in the playoffs, against the Chiefs earlier in the year and against the Steelers on Sunday.
Brown has been open downfield all year and Lamar has missed him on throws the Josh Allen haters would take victory laps over.
Lamar still has to continue to grow as a passer but he is a good QB. Just a different kind of QB than some my like.
Tim Tebow was an athlete. Lamar Jackson is a QB. An athlete doesn't complete 66.1 percent of his passes with 36TDs and 6 Ints.

Yep. And Russel Wilson was drafted in the 3rd round. And Brady was drafted in the 6th round. It happens. Be happy Geeeennnneeee
Pretty sure Lorax did the exact opposite. D line to LB.
IIRC he came into the league as an OL.

It's almost like Lamar is more athlete than QB and we are finding out ~30 teams (including Baltimore) weren't actually crazy for passing on him in the draft.
Yes because Rosen and Darnold have MVPs to their names right.

Well right now we need one of those fat unathletic guys at the bottom of the list. We have plenty of the athletic guys.

I think they seem him as a really good project with Kyle Williams type potential.
Or he can slim down like Zo.

i think the majority of people agree with you, but acting like the sky is falling after a win is just strange. the bills had a plan this week and stuck to it. going into the game i figured most assumed it would be a quiet game offensively.
I knew if the weather was bad it was gonna be a close game and the Patriots would have a chance to beat us. It's like people have forgotten that weather is a huge factor in football. Belichik used the weather and game plan to take away the passing game and we still won. It's a big win no matter how you look at it. We put up 24 against a good D in bad weather and people want to complain. I guess "Bills Mafia"is full of complainers.

He's also angry that Allen will not be his special friend.🤭
