The last day will be emotional. I hope whatever game it is will be a win.

I have no freaking clue what the offensive identity is the past 2 weeks. I guess put the game on Josh Allen and hope for the best. The defensive identity is to let the other team march down the field with time consuming touchdown drives while converting impossible 3rd and longs in the process. I call it the “bend AND break” Tampon 2 defense.

I’m a die hard Knicks and Bills fan. It could be much worse. It could be the 2000s. First of all, I don’t think Buffalo is the “doomed” sports city that people try to portray it as. The city has had success in 3 major sports at one time or another. People dismiss the AFL championships, but count the championships for NFL teams before the merger? Knicks have 2 ships in the 70s and like the Bills were one of the premier 90s teams w/ major star power allover both rosters. People think just because you don’t win a championship means the seasons a waste. Watching Josh Allen is like watching Barry Sanders or Dan Marino. I can appreciate their individual success just as much as the teams.

Because he’s a smart veteran that knows what to do when a play breaks down especially from playing w/ Russ all of those years. I just want a guy that can play the perimeter, has reliable hands, doesn’t make mental errors, and knows exactly where to be. He might’ve lost a step, but he’s better than Keon Coleman. Maybe he can possibly mentor him. Not a bad idea to learn from a SB winning WR and to have him on the roster. I’m not normally a “sign everybody” guy, but Buffalo seems like they’ve reached a make or break moment. Gotta own up to those mistakes in the draft and do what you gotta do to fix them.

Can’t believe we’re going into 2026 and Jordan Poyer is on the verge of starting. Guy is damn near as old as me. But welcome news I guess. Rapp is been a complete disaster and one of the worst Beane pickups in recent memory. From Injuring fellow players, terrible in coverage, injured, slow, etc he’s been a failure here minus a few plays here & there.

Agreed. Some fresh blood just might be the antidote to this failing run D. Both offer solid pass rushing ability as well. Bryce Young is going to be out for several weeks with a high ankle sprain. That really sucks for them because I am a fan other than the week we play them.

I was debating the other day who was the worst QB destination of all time. I narrowed it down to Chicago and New York (Jets.) Just absolute pitiful lineup. Even their GOATs are mediocre. Regardless, they should’ve kept in Fields to secure that #1 pick (that they’ll eventually ruin anyway.) They should just concentrate on building a beast running game and defense.

Not really. They play the team that’s on their schedule. I’m not sure what Andy Dalton has to do with the following week? That’s great news. In the NFL I’ll take an easy W anywhere I can get one. This is huge for McD as he’s never lost 3 straight. I don’t want that’s bad karma

Panthers are sneaky good. Bryce Young shows flashes of a young Russell Wilson. This game is no longer the automatic W it was when the schedule was released. Rico Dowdle is also one of the leagues top runners as well. Buffalo has their work cut out for them. This win will solidify Buffalo’s standing as a top team and hush the criticism (for now.) So not a division or even conference game, but still seems extremely important. I don’t even want to speculate what a loss would do. McDermott has never lost 3 games in a row.

Another thing to take into account is the injuries. It’s an easy excuse, but the Bills injury bug is one of unluckiest things I’ve seen in football. Core players at the most important positions dropping like flies. Prior to Hairston going down, the CB room actually looked very promising. Hairston/Benford were solid 1/2 punch w/ experienced vets Tre White/Levi Wallace backing up the outside corners + all pro Taron Johnson manning his usual Nickel spot. Buffalo is absolutely decimated at corner Edit: want to add Dorian Strong to that list as well

welp, the good guy doesn’t always win in the end. Hate to say it but imagine how good the Bills would be with scumbag Tyreek Hill torching the top of defenses and opening up the middle for Kincaid/Shakir. I wouldn’t want him on the team I am just proving a point. If someone great like Pickens is available for as little as a 3rd round pick idc if he’s got a little bit of a diva mentality. Take a chance. Figure out a contract that gives them an out. I’m not going to do Beanes job.

You’re using the Raiders as the litmus test for a good offense ? 😆Child, please. Allen & Cook would drop 40 on them like it’s just another day at the office. Geno Smith is also the type of average QB that McDermott has made millions feasting on for his entire career. The Raiders to the Chiefs are as the Dolphins are to the Bills. 2x yearly free win tokens.

Stefon Diggs had these same concerns coming out of Minnesota and that didn’t stop the Bills. They still got a solid 4 years production. I feel like Beane thinks he’s gamed the WR system or something because of Josh’s past couple seasons. Sooner or later you need to replenish the talent pool and he’s failed to do that. Even letting critical role players like Hollins slip away to the best division rival. Usually I am all about letting the football guys make the big decisions, but we are seeing even the most obvious things completely unaddressed. Keon Coleman ? Josh Palmer ? These are the boundary receivers you give your MVP QB? At this point, I’d rather put every single dollar into the offensive side of the ball and just try to blow teams out of the water every single week. Hope I can find a few diamonds in the rough on draft day on defense to keep opponents honest. Our late round defenders have been better than our day 1 picks. Sinking all of the money/resources into a defense that’s going to stink regardless and hoping Allen/Cook/Kincaid can carry an entire team is a ticking time bomb. Better to lure top WR talent here w/ money and a top QB. Imagine having Pickens, Davante Adam’s, and/or Cooper Kupp. All WRs who changes one or more teams over the past 2 years that could’ve been had. And all of these teams have a winning record.

This bye week was needed for the fans just as much as the players. I am happy to not have to deal with the stress of Bills football.

Watching Pickens balling out and making big boy downfield one handed grabs makes me sick. Seeing him go to the Cowboys for a 3rd rounder and conditional 6th hurts me deep in my soul. I would’ve gave that Keon Coleman pick in a heartbeat for Pickens. There was WR talent to be had in the offseason and he flubbed it per usual.

It would just be an awesome consolation prize if one of those teams won. (Former)

I really think I’m done watching the NFL after a certain player retires

Absolutely pitiful drive. 45 seconds and 3 time outs and you run the clock out ? What a joke. Of course the fans are booing.

Yeah. The Patriots stock is rising faster than any team I’ve seen in recent memory. All the sudden they’re good

This is my first Titans game I’ve watched live and I’m impressed with Cam Ward. From what I’ve heard he’s sucked.

Patriots Christian Barmore out with an injury. Could be a huge impact on the AFCE.

This is like the adult version of finding out pro wrestling is fake.

lol Trevor Lawrence is 🔥 🗑️ Wow extremely surprised they don’t go for the kill before the half. Makes no sense. 3 touchdown lead is not guaranteed in the NFL.

Isn’t it so FRUSTRATING when teams get cute in the red zone and call reverses ? The Jags were moving the ball just fine. Then they get stupid for no reason and now they’re 3rd and long

The way they come out playing after the BYE will show you where they are truly as a football team. Whether those 2 losses were a fluke or not. I am hoping McD can light a fire under this team and himself or you’re absolutely correct, it’s going to get vicious in the media.
