The Vikings' season this year is why you can't make judgments about how good or bad a team is going to be, or how good or bad a win/loss is, based on what a team did in the preceding year.
Big ups and downs from year to year are common in the NFL.

There is no MNF tomorrow, correct?
So this is the last game of the regular season tonight? -

I love to see a great hit as much as the next guy, but that's almost scary to watch.
That's like an NHL style head shot with such speed and momentum at the point of contact.
That is the type of thing that can end a career.

My best friend married into a family that was more coffee-cultured. When at the in-laws for lunch they asked if I wanted a cup of coffee, serving me a large mug (as well they gave the same portion to their five year old son)
i took a few sips and almost went into toxic shock as it was espresso. The son downed his in a few minutes with ease.
so I guess your mileage may vary....
——————
my first time in the big city for work I visited a real coffee store and spent about a week in pain acclimatizing my stomach to strong coffee.
Espresso is strong in flavor, but weak in caffeine.
The extraction time is too fast for it to be powerful coffee from a caffeine perspective.

It's fans like you who ran Peterman out of town. Kicking a man when he's down - so typical.
First they love building them up, then they love tearing them down.

The TD thing is something the fans are going to be thinking about more than the coaching staff.
If I was in charge of this meaningless game, I'd hand him the ball on all offensive plays inside the Fish 5 yard line, and hope he gets in on one of them.
He may well get a sack too.

He's currently at 48.5 according to NFL.com career stats.

I don't think he will be a candidate for a HC position, but come on folks!
This is the NFL; genuine coaching talent is rare, and the same little pool of names gets re-treaded around the league all the time.
These guys have more lives than cats.

That was also my takeaway after watching the film and the 60 minutes special. It doesn’t seem as though he is afraid of dying at all.
I don't know if he's afraid to die or not. Part of why he goes to such lengths to rehearse the free solos is because he does not want to die. Or at least so it seems.

Have not witnessed a Saturn V launch live, but I've crawled all over and checked out the Saturn V they have lying in a horizontal position, with stages separated, at Kennedy Space Center. It's incredible.
The F1 engines are freaking enormous and, I believe, the most powerful manmade engines of any kind ever produced.
They make the Space Shuttle look like an original 24 bhp VW Beetle.

Joe Rogan has done 2 podcasts now with one of the best free climbers in the world--Alex Honnold.
It is absolutely fascinating to listen to this guy.
Here's the more recent podcast.

Yes great QBs are worth the money. They give your team a chance to win and they fill the stands.
I'm not sure why you choose to list the five highest paid QBs when your question was about the greatest QBs. QBs are not paid based on their ranking vs their peers. They are paid based on potential to improve their team and current market conditions at the time they sign their contracts. Because the salary cap keeps going up and the league keeps making rules to favor QBs, the price for QBs will continue to rise and the QBs who have more recently signed contracts will, in general, be the highest paid for some period of time.
Not to mention Tom Brady very selflessly makes little money so the team isn't horrible around him and his would-be monster contract.
As you say, can't correlate QB pay rate to QB quality.

If DT is BPA, then sure.
Yeah, but it's hard to define "best player available" when you consider most teams, including the Bills, are terrible at assessing talent in the draft.
-
I think folks are overly focused on WRs on this team right now, mostly because we don't have any good ones!
But it's the QB that makes the receivers and not vice versa.
Allen is much more important--for now--to the equation than who our WRs are.
We do need to improve the WRs we have though.

Just a random thought, hope I am not violating the tos and I am sorry if I am but I am awfully curious about this topic. Obviously marijuana is banned by the NFL, but I've wondered for quite some time if football players smoke because it relieves symptoms of CTE. Do any of you think this is possible? It would be pretty tragic if the NFL banned a substance that could benefit their players mental health, especially with something as serious as CTE. I know weed helps treat a myriad of illnesses from bipolar disorder all the way down to arthritis and inflammation. Could marijuana benefit players and should the NFL take it off its banned substances list? It would be a shame if the NFL was taking away something that could be beneficial to its players. Do you guys think weed could actually help the NFL? Thoughts?
I think most players smoke it for cultural purposes and probably aren't aware of any benefits, though it probably does help with overall pain relief.
Could it be used to treat CTE symptoms? Probably!
Pot is going to be legal everywhere in this country soon enough.

Sorry to see him go but this day has been coming for a while.
I agree Lorax is a natural replacement for Kyle as a defensive leader if not team leader.

What do you guys get you’re spouse for Christmas? Mine gets what she wants, when she wants. It’s frustrating, to be honest. I got her some Coach gloves her mom got her every year before passing around the holidays last year. I also got her some crazy CocaCola metal sign to put in the garage (we live in Atlanta). She mentioned that was a cool thing for her months ago, so I ordered it in November, but scheduled to arrive Thursday. UGH!
I’d rather spend $$$ on experiences than things. Is that just me? There is no sweater or shirt we really need. My sister skipped birthdays and Christmas gifts one year, but it paid for most of a trip to Paris offseason at Christmas. Cool deal in my mind.
.
A lot of people I know, many of whom are women, prefer to spend $ on experiences as opposed to things.
I am a sucker for really high quality things that last forever, so I don't mind paying for those, but I am not a collector of junk I don't need which helps.

just because the best team falls apart doesn't mean SHEER EXCELLENCE pops up suddenly with the other teams
i can see a horrible division for a few years after Brady leaves, 6-10 could win it for 5 years
won't that be something to cheer your little hearts out over
Who's talking sheer excellence? I thought we were talking division leader once NE loses Tom Brady and maybe BB too.
I agree it could be soft division for years to come; like I said, no one looks ready to be a NO. 1 right now.
Well, other than NE.

This return was epic!
He almost didn't make it into the first row for the celebration, but I think the fans pulled him in!

Too early to declare NE dead.
None of the other teams in the division, Bills included, have proven that they are ready to assume the mantle of AFC East leader.
The end for NE is coming however, and coming soon.
Rex Ryan to the Dolphins?

I'd be shocked if Rex coaches again in the NFL.
His time in Buffalo exposed him and he moved into broadcasting for a reason.
