as does Terry Bradshaw, who said emphatically at the half the KC game that Josh would never be an accurate QB.

every team gives those up. silly point.

Should be interesting. He's a home town guy with a young family. He'll be torn, as he may get an offer or two.

Great point re their O Line. If the Bills O Line fell apart as badly as Philly's did, Bills fans would be screaming for the QB and HCs heads as well. No OLine, no offense in the NFL. No way to recover from a decimated OLine.

Locker room likely has very little to do with it. The big issue is I'm pretty sure Bills won't have the cap space next year to pay an experienced high quality former starter $4-5m to be a backup (plus, that is more then Josh makes right now... think about that). Do that and they may be saying goodbye to even more key guys than they already will be.

such bitterness on this board. in general. pretty sad.

most of these tie straight back to Ralph Wilson when in his 80's and 90's. Once he passed, the org joined the living of the NFL. Love ya Ralph, but for your last 20 years, you ran a local rugby club in what became the world's largest sports league

Watching him throw the ball, he looks to be pretty much done to me. Looks like the injuries have finally taken their toll. Guy had a great run. Ride off into the sunset young man. Go raise your family.

at one time the 17th game was thought to be out of the country (mexico city, london, toronto :|, places like that) .. not sure how the league gins all that up in the covid world with only 8-9 months until next season, but that was one thought back during the CBA negotiations. this way, no team has home field advantage

no tailgating, limited concessions, spread out...no interaction with other fans....$60+ swab in the brain... well I guess it is something... those fans at the GB/Titans game last weekend looked mighty cold and alone 😐

totally agree. Been watchign the last few GB games on gamepass replay. super fun team to watch. pitch it all over the field just like bills/chiefs. electric offense... hate to see them lose a key guy at this point

Good $ move by Marrone at the time. So smart of him to put that clause in his contract. He knew Ralph was on the way out and protected himself. And sure enough got caught smack in the middle of an owner transition where he was unlikely to be kept, as Pegs would likely get their own front office and coaching staff. Smart guy/smart agent . I thought it was brilliant career management at the time and still do. And he dropped into a really good HC situation in Jax and had a good year there until Bortles turned out to suck and Tom Coughlin the dictator a-hole drove all the good players get away. As Bills fan know oh so well, without a franchise QB in todays NFL, you are just spinning your whells. So say want you want, but the guy went 9-7 with the Bills, Pegs said no, then he had Jax in the AFC title game, so there's that.

make sure the rest of that team is clean. they could crush our season by infecting a bunch of our starters.

Hmm.... timing and number , plus McD saying Beasley is "week to week" tells me Beasley injury is more significant than less.

I don't know, other than the Steelers, they haven't played a loaded team since the KC game. We shall see. If Phins get solid QB play Sunday, that will be a test.

no problem with it. in fact would be cool to see comeback player of the year Alex Smith QB a home playoff game. So impressed with his whole story.

Bills need the game as well. Should be a good one. Seems like the weather will be decent (unfortunately).

Agreed. The moon and stars have definitely lined up this year. Go take it while its there for the taking! Titans are banged up now, KC coming back to earth (?), Pitt looks average, lets go take the conference. Saints/Packers super scary with HOF QBs but lets leave that for later!

Let him grow. Just like they did with Josh. He'll be better next year after a full camp, etc. Year 3 should be good. Bills will be losing a bunch to FA next year with the low salary cap and will need to reload elsewhere.

Unless what happened to the 49ers happens to the Bills. I get that this is a fan board and everyone's excited (including me) but rashes of IR injuries to key, high cap hit players end seasons, that's a fact. The 9ers proved that this year. And you'll all be calling for McBeanes heads if it does, which would be insane, but again, this is a fan board. If the Bills stay healthy, I am with you 100%. But we know what this team looks like when just a few guys are down (eg. Josh, Milano, etc for the KC and Titans games) combined with some adversity (Covid stuff). What if Josh/Milano/Hughes/Poyer are down for the season, as JimmyG/Bosa/Thomas/Ford were for the 49ers this year??? Everything changes, as they are not replaceable in the short term. Just sayin', all the hoopla about the Bills future is under the assumption they have their roster for most of the season. And the massive $$ Pegulas put into the fitness facilities along with McBeanes refusal to rush guys back from injury (etc. Milano) I believe are helpful in this. Go Bills. Just enjoy it. I am. Leave the future in the future.

Bills probably have the biggest guns in the NFL. Josh the biggest arm and Bass and Bojo with the biggest legs. Things really looking good for the future. If the offense wasn't so productive, I could see Bass with 10+ 50+ yarders in a season; his 50 yarders are good from 60+.. all of them. Bojo just kicks it out of the stadium. Really good news here. Again, its all about McBeanes constantly finding and signing the right kind of high character talent (the Process) and coaching it up. They stole Bojo from the Pats on waivers and had the scouting chops to find/draft Bass and move on to him (and stick with him, just like they stuck with Josh).

We'll see. When the Pats' 8 (eight!) Covid op-outs and Gilmore are back and they get a competent QB (they have tons of cap space), they'll be a very competitive team next year. The Bills and strong to be sure, but we beat the Pats twice, Seattle, San Fran and others when they were really beat up by major injury/Covid problems. Bills play KC, Pittsburg and Titans AGAIN next year (along with Brady/Bucs) ; every year and every game will be a battle . Who knows, Bills could have a bunch of guys go down for the season like what happened to the 49ers this year; then the whole conversation changes. Enjoy it now while things are working in the Bills direction. The 9ers fans thought they'd be awesome the next (this year) as well. We see how that worked out. Go Bills. Trust the Process.

Won't be as funny and attractive as soon as someone is paralyzed after doing it.

After SB last year and 14-1 so far this year, the QB of that team in a passing league is going to win the MVP this year. Case closed.
