  1. Agree but the proof will be next week at Seattle and in the playoffs. It's hard to believe his absence won't hurt the Chiefs.
  2. Nice play by Kelcey. Route running is an under appreciated skill - at least in Buffalo. The difference between the patterns run by the Chiefs receivers and our guys is quite apparent.
  3. The inconsistency of NFL officiating is frustrating. Two refs saw the face mask but neither saw the obvious grounding.
  4. And as a result neither QB is putting up great numbers and Rivers has 2 INT's and should have had a 3rd and Mahomes is lucky he didn't have an INT at the end of the half.
  5. Five! I figured my ONE box was a valuable collectors item. Now I'm thinking it's worth about $2.99 as there are probably about 100,000 boxes sitting in food pantry's all across Western NY. Hell if the apocalypse happens civilization will be reborn by those of us eating our Flutie Flakes when the food runs out.
  6. To be fair, on the Chiefs KB is about the 4th player a defense has to worry about. In Buffalo, for all his dogging it, he still was the guy opposing defenses treated as the Bills #1 receiving threat.
  7. That was nice throw and while he's patient he also has time in the pocket. We have a KB sighting! Catch for 17 yards.
  8. And what was Dead Pool thinking giving out a bottle of gin! Bradshaw is probably wrestling with Strahan to get his hands on that bottle.
  9. I don't know about eating those things - can you imagine what might be growing among the flakes after all these years!
  10. As you can see, luck plays a role in these games. I'm a bit surprised at how low scoring this game has been.
  11. Hell, I would have settled for going with Flutie over Rob Johnson. As an aside, I still have an unopened box of Flutie flakes!
  12. Now that's fair. It's hindsight but at the very least maybe McD could have squeezed Reid for another draft pick.
  13. To be clear: * I think the obsession with Mahommes by some Bills fans is weird because there's nothing that can be done to change what happened. It's water under the damn bridge. If NFL front offices knew that Mahommes would have the year he's having now he would have been the #1 pick in the 2017 draft. That he wasn't is simply a testimony to how smart Reid is when it comes to QB's. * But NONE of this has anything to do with Allen. The Bills did not pick Allen over Mahommes they picked Allen over Jackson & Rosen.
  14. Are you saying that Allen was trending to be the #1 pick in 2018 in 2017? I watched a couple of games of his while at Wyoming and while the talk was about his great potential I don't remember anyone saying that he was in the running as the top pick. I could be wrong but Allen flew up the draft chart after he started working out for teams and they saw first hand his elite arm talent and how after just a little work with Jordan Palmer had significantly improved his footwork. Mahommes had completed his first year in the NFL at the time that anyone started to seriously suggest that Allen might be the top pick. As it was two QB's went ahead of Allen.
  15. Exactly right. Sure blame the Bills management for this, though it doesn't change a thing, because no matter how much we wish Mahomes played for the Bills, he never will. More importantly, Allen is not part of this discussion. The Bills did not choose Allen over Mahommes. They choose Allen over Rosen & Jackson and if either of these two start playing like Mahommes then Bills fans can B word & moan. Right now it just strikes me as a weird obsession.
  16. No it wasn't. When Mahommes was drafted we didn't even know Allen was coming out for the 2018 draft. Had Allen not impressed the Bills prior to the draft we would have taken Josh Rosen or maybe dealt up to grab Darnold. Again, the ONLY Bills QB you can compare Mahomes to is Tyrod. Because if the bills were not satisfied with Tyrod at that time then they may have taken Mahommes or Watson. Now if you want to criticize the Bills front office & caches for not appreciating how great Mahommes was going to be, go for it. Andy Reid deserves all the credit in the world for spotting this diamond in the rough. But it has NOTHING to do with Josh Allen today.
  17. Do you think that at the time of the NFL draft in 2017 Allen was high on the Bills radar or that they were planning to take him with the 7th pick in the 2018 draft. My point was that the Bills did not pass on Mahomes becasue Allen MIGHT be available in 2018. And I stand by that point.
  18. As for the game, clearly Mahomes is a top 3 QB in the NFL. The guy makes plays. But let's not forget that he has an elite offensive line as evidenced on that last screen pass that went for a TD. Did you see how well that was blocked!
  19. Why would it put any pressure on Allen? The trade had nothing to do with Allen and everything to do with Tyrod. Wasn't the reason the Bills wern't interested in a QB in the 2017 draft because they thought Tyrod was good enough? This desire to compare Allen and Mahomes is weird.
  20. You are aware that when the Bills passed on Mahomes they probably hadn't even heard of Allen? Ditto for Watson. I find this whole "oh I wish we drafted Mahomes" to be weird. I'm sure several other teams wish they'd take him to.
