Turning this game off. These officials completely ruined the game for me.

I guess the NFL wants the Chiefs to have the #1 seed. Raiders getting completely jobbed.

I don’t think any team (Chiefs, Ravens) should benefit from the Bills and Bengals choosing humanity and integrity over selfishness and greed. That being said, Hamlin is on the path to recovery, which is the biggest victory in Buffalo Bills history. At this point, I consider everything else that’s playoff football related to be increasingly trivial.

Simple, the result would be the Bills lose Pats win and also get 10 random comp picks from the NFL.

I’m alluding to our ability to win coin flips. It’s statistically improbable to have the odds that we have had. Don’t read to much into my post, there’s no subliminal messages embedded.

We’re doomed if this is the solution.

Hopefully Hamlin is in stable condition and on the road to recovery by next week. This team is talented enough to forfeit this game and next and still win the SB as a bottom seed. Honestly, the season is an afterthought for me, just rooting for Damar to pull through.

Decisions made during times of adversity are what defines us as humans. Make the right decision, show that humanity trumps revenue from a football game.

NFL: Money > Integrity

If they used an AED it was heart related.

It’s probably not the appropriate time to discuss this, but Everett was not fighting for his life he was fighting paralysis. The state of the art ice saline solution injected into his spine slowed swelling and most likely stopped him from being paralyzed. Both are horrible injuries but this doesn't compare to Hamlin injury.

Nobody should want them to play a GAME after their teammate was fighting for his life in front of their eyes.

For what it’s worth, the airports (7 miles away from stadium) forecast looks promising. A quick look at radar also looks promising. Small isolated pockets of convection. If we do see any precipitation it looks to be intermittent and short lived.

Who becomes the new DC? You want another downgrade like we had at OC?

What are next weeks lotto #’s? Asking for a friend. Please PM only.

Thanks for taking the time to reply with a well thought out post! I agree with most of what you said except: Tampa Bay had 3 #1’s, Rams arguably had 2 #1’s who played against the Bengals who arguably had 2 #1’s. To your point on Kelsey, I somewhat agree. He’s probably the most underpaid player in the NFL considering he’s been top 10 in receiving yards and TD’s over the last 4 years and makes a fraction of what WR’s do. And I agree that the Bills won’t sign a top tier WR for big money, but they might be able to find one on the cheap that want to play on a SB caliber team. We will see.

Inversely proportionate maybe? if you’re going to be a D at least put some thought into your replies otherwise you come across like a DA.

I apologize you are correct, I shouldn’t expect people fully read and try comprehend posts prior to responding. I’m such a dingus.

So you’re saying you’re too lazy or incapable of reading an entire post and/or taking the time to actually process the content without resorting to a closed minded juvenile response with the hopes of getting a few laughing emoji’s? Sounds Illogical to me!

Agree on the Cowboys, one of the best olines in the history of the sport. The NFL wasn’t really a passing league at that point. A few teams like the 90’s Bills prioritized the passing game, but they were an anomaly. BTW I did include the Bucs in my OP.

Vikings didn’t win a SB or Championship, and Randall Cobb…really? Please continue to go “on and on”.

Maybe a team without a franchise QB? The last 3 teams to win the SB had top notch receivers and well above average QBs. That’s 4 teams over the last 35 years. The 90’s Cowboys Dynasty and The Patriots Dynasty did not have dual top 30 WR’s

Agree, but how many of the aforementioned teams have a superior oline? Can a top flight group of receivers and a future HOF QB nullify the need for a top notch oline? This has been proven false many times. Some one correct me if I’m wrong, but I understand the Bills can free up $50M + with restructures next year.

Has this concept demonstrated success? IMO, the answer is yes. Dolphins, Bengals, Chargers, 2020-2021 Chiefs (if you include Kelsey), Eagles and Buccaneers all have or had multiple top 30 pass catchers and have demonstrated significant success under this elite dual threat concept. The 2023 WR draft class is not looking all that deep and the FA market looks very weak. Considering this, would OBD subscribe to this concept and be comfortable trading away a #1 or #2 pick and spending a huge chunk of cap space on another WR? If so, who would you target? If not where should we allocate the picks and available cap? A quick look at the salaries of top WR’s playing on bad teams leads me to believe Deandre Hopkins (30) and Mike Evans (29) / (if Brady retires) might be available.

They have a good LT that’s an FA.
