It needs to be Bills 20, Browns 10 after the first possession of the second half. Nothing else is acceptable.

I'm just so very confused. Hasn't Allen proved that he is elite? He played too well for too long for it to be a fluke, right? It's not possible that defenses figured him out after all this time, is it? For the past 3.5 games, he's been bench-worthy, objectively a bad quarterback

Yes.

Why does it seem like the Bills have 5 players on offense and the Browns have 20 on defense?

The 2014 Bills exploded in the Detroit game and blew out the opponent. The 2022 Bills under Sean McDermott are folding. This season, now in a total tailspin after starting so well amid SB expectations, is shaping up to be one of the most frustrating in franchise history. FML 🤬

The Bills look terrible. I can't handle this crap today.

The notion that something is amiss with White is not zany. It's obvious, and it's just uncomfortable for the vast majority of people here.

Ok... It's actually kind of weird that you remember that, but even if true, that has absolutely nothing to do with this

Someone else finally said it. I've been saying the same thing. No one wants to hear it, but you can't possibly watch that press conference + observe the weirdness of his current situation and not realize something is seriously amiss -- unless you're a head-in-the-sand homer.

I don't like this. I don't like it anytime people compare McDermott to the past 17 years. That's not the standard. We can't just accept "better than it used to be" if it's not good enough to win the Super Bowl.

He is an embarrassment, and Wood has to correct him so often.

This is the ultimate blow to the "So YoU tHiNk YoU kNoW mOrE tHaN tHe TeAm?" people. I wasn't the only one last year saying Wilson was washed, and somehow the Broncos didn't see it at all. Worst contract in the history of the NFL.

Honestly, it really ticks me off. It's like we have no killer instinct in terms of involving new pieces. McCaffrey goes to the 49ers and he's immediately the whole offense. Toney was massively featured for KC yesterday. Yet we trade for Hines and he's on the field for 6 plays, and instead of playing Marlowe, we give Lewis his first start and he throws the game. Furthermore, we refuse to actually use James Cook or Shakir. If Beckham is smart, he won't sign here because he won't really play.

Call it a hunch, but I don't think the players like Sean McDermott.

No. But the past 20 years aren't the standard. Being the best in the league is.

I'm curious if you will refer to next week's Bills game as facing "a bad Browns team at home" or if that tune will change...

This is a good thread, and the reactions to it are so typical of this place. How dare you suggest that something might not go well or that Beane might not have done a perfect job? Fans around here can't handle the possibility. Only blind positivity allowed.

Dude, he's a journalist. He's not supposed to be a member of Bills Mafia or a fan. I swear, people expecting journalists to be fans is getting really weird.

I don't think we'll miss the playoffs until Allen is injured a good portion of the year or his running ability is gone.

It's hilarious that people are giving you a hard time about this, because everything you said is objectively true

Very annoying. There's no reason it has to be that way. I don't understand why people enjoy living like that.

The consensus top three teams in the NFL are the Eagles, Bills, and Chiefs. Anyone who doesn't raise an eyebrow at the Bills being the only ones to not make a move is looking at the situation through rose-colored homer glasses. The Eagles and Chiefs see an opportunity to get even more dominant and seize. The Bills are like, "No thanks, we're fine as long as everyone stays healthy."
