The Red King

For the love of god, can our D ends hold contain?

Was thinking the same. The D should be named, "The Red Carpet".

Entirely possible, and also could have resulted in no OT.

Actually, that's something that's really upsetting me. A lot of people are saying they dropped a two-point conversion that would have led to OT. Um...still time left. Regulation was not over at that point.

Unpopular take, in most regards I think the Ravens were the better team. But the NFL doesn't do "Best of x..." series. We were by far the better team in Super Bowl XXV, but the Giants played scrappy, made the most of opportunities, and somehow eeked out a win. And in the end, nobody cares that Buffalo was the better team. They only care that the Giants won. We just did the same thing. No matter who the better team was, we're the ones going to KC. Period.

Lot of people forget that. We had time and time-outs. While a win wasn't assured, OT certainly wasn't either. Everyone still enjoying our rebuilding year? 😉

We knew Mayfield and Rosen were playoff caliber QB's around 2019?

Oh, I know our Josh already proved himself. I was more surprised that all four other QBs made the playoffs.

Case study in seeing who fully reads a post before replying vs. people who read the title and/or the first couple sentences and knee-jerk reply. Well played, OP. Well played.

2018 was a great draft for QBs. Five QBs were taken first round. This season four of them led their teams to the playoffs, even if two of them are on different teams then the ones that drafted them. That's a remarkable feat. Then there's Josh Rosen who, unless I'm mistaken, isn't even in the league anymore. He's the odd one out. I find this interesting, as I remember a lot of fans referred to Josh Allen as "Wrong Josh", upset b/c the Bills could have taken Rosen. Instead, the QB those fans wanted is the only one out of the five that isn't/wasn't in the playoffs. And "Wrong Josh" is one of two MVP candidates. Just goes to show that you never know how things are going to play out.

Pitt. over Baltimore? Will the Ravens have regular Lamar or playoff Lamar?

Would have loved to sweep the AFC East, but I'll take this. NE loses the top draft pick, and they can't really even claim a moral/feel good victory because they beat our backups. I'm laughing my butt off...

Why would any veteran, respectable coach go to a team that is that much of a train wreck like the Jets? There was a reason that there kept being talk about Cowher and other big names coming to coach Buffalo, only to get McDermott. Young coaching prospects have to be far less picky. I can't see the Jets getting anything but at this point.

Question. Given that tie-breakers are really sketchy I have to ask. Is Pitt locked into the 5th seed? Are the Chargers locked into the 6th? And then Denver/Miami/Cincy locked into the 7th? Or can the Wild Card seeding still shift? Honest question, as with a loss the Steelers and Chargers would both have identical records and conference records, and I'm not sure about some head-to-heads, as in if they happened and who won. Thanks in advance!

That was Week One last season. ...I kid, I kid... 😆 You know, Josh might have a chance at a win vs. Philly in the Super Bowl.

Sorry, no Dolphins. I hate divison games. Don't care how much better we are. Division games can get hairy. Bengals, we have history with, and getting some revenge would be sweet, but they have Burrow, and there would be a weird vibe b/c of the whole Hamlin thing. Give me Denver. An improving team but one that, barring injury, if we lose to, we really have nobody to blame but ourselves. PS: I don't think KC will tank. Denver almost (and should have) beaten them earlier, and if they upset us, will be KC's first opponent. At the same time, I think KC rests their starters and doesn't go out of their way to beat them, either.

I did the same thing! I was like, "Yep, touchdown."

Only thing I'm concerned with is Allen's hand. KC's been winning like this most of this season.

Why not both? I hear people say the D not being able to stop a running nose was the bigger issue, so stop talking about McD. Why? McD had a major, major blunder and that certainly deserves talking about. Absolutely nobody is giving the D a pass, but their terminal play does not let our coach off the hook for the call that sunk at least a chance for a comeback win.

Why? You just threw away the game!

That just made me sick. They're cruising to the 1 seed through a string of lucky breaks. I'm just glad we killed their perfect season, 'cause at this point that horseshoe up their rear might just take them to 16-1. >.>

Buffalo had aging talent, lost to the Chiefs at home in the playoffs and lost both their #1 and #2 receivers. Meanwhile you have teams like Baltimore and Houston on the accent, and Rodgers returning. The Bills didn't even make the playoffs until Week 18. Predicting a drop-off for the Bills was not unreasonable. That being said, Buffalo bounced back much, much better then expected, and at this point the window hs been proven to be wide open.

Take it out of Allen's hands. Are...you...kidding...me...

Prevent D prevents you from winning. And that missed PAT continues to loom overhead.

Oh, HELL yah!
