    Dallas won 3 Superbowls with Jerry Jones as owner and GM?   

    Actually during the building of the Cowboys including the first 2 Super Bowls Jimmy Johnson has all decision making powers (draft, contracts, etc.) Jerry as GM had one .. and that was with the personnel Jimmy Johnson had brought to Dallas.

     so for all the excuses for the Houston blackout game.....

     

    the Bills failed to sell out all their home playoff games the two prior years???

     

     

    As someone else stated the only early 90s playoff game that did not sell out was the Oilers .. and how is this a certainty .. because we watched all the others on TV .. when they used to have 100% of seats sold to televise. If we get a game at home this year (unlikely) it will sell out and it will be jam packed

    I thought some of the home playoff games in the '90s (specifically the comeback game) weren't sold out. So why are people acting like this is a dumb question?

    1) we had just been pummeled by Houston the week before; and more importantly 2) your facts are wrong .. that was the highest attended game in the history of the stadium ... 900,000 people have stated they were at that game ;)

    I get he will be named MVP .. and he is having the best year of the 2018 QBs ... but recently he is getting the 1 yd TD passes but little in the way of yardage .. he has 109 yds running and throwing at half and he will be lauded for an amazing performance. It is almost laughable how in love the media is with him. Again he has done well, but I just don’t see him as the MVP

    I would like to retract my comment .. goodness

    You’re off your rocker. Sit down and shut up.

    How is that “off your rocker” .. and why the rudeness with the sit down and shut up. It was a legitimate request which should be answered with civility with a yes or a no .. I am fine either way but it would in my opinion be useful information.. if you don’t agree that is fine but there was no need for the response you provided at all.

    Texans get to 10 wins by either:

    1. beating titans 2x, lose other.  outcome is they win division, as titans would have 7 losses

    2. splitting with titans, winning other.  they win division in this scenario too, as they would have better division record than titans.  titans would assuming have 10 wins, and we beat them on head to head, if we win 1 more

    Correct on tennessee and texans both at 10 - 6 goes to the Texans for the Division ... and then even in a 3 way split .. the only other team that could tie Buffalo and Tennessee would be Pittsburg. Since both Pittsburgh and Buffalo  beat Tennesseee .. Tenesee would be on the outside.

  7. It was a bad game ... but if anyone thought his progress would be straight up .. you were kidding yourself. The goal is year over year improvement not week to week. All QBs have duds .. here is a stat line you might recall "14–28 for 123 yards, no TDs and 4 interceptions (including a pick six) prior to being pulled in the 4th quarter. QB rating of 22.5" What scrub was this???? Thomas Brady vs Buffalo in 2003. It sucks .. I had visions of the top playoff spot dancing in my head .. but considering I picked the Bills to be 8-8 this year .. I am pleased with where the team is and where Josh is. Next year I will be looking for even more. Go Bills! 2020 season Super Bowl contenders.

  8. Chris Brown getting a little crazy before the game .. per his twitter feed ... there will be some streaking at 12:10 .. not certain if it is just him or Maddy as well, but .. surprised the Pegula's are letting this thing happen :)

     
    Hey #BillsMafia what has to happen on Sunday for the #Bills to get a win? Send me your answer & we could use it on Bills Field Pass streaking live at 12:10 pm Sunday. Watch the players warm up right on the field as we get you ready for the game and look at your keys to victory!

    I think this conversation is a testament to heart and character of Josh Allen, his rookie year he played behind an O line that this year could not even get playing time on another NFL team or aren't even on a roster. Yet he went out every week unfazed and just competed hurling LBs and doing whatever he could to move the sticks and taking that subpar offense on his shoulders. When others like Rosen and Darnolds crawled into a shell JA stood tall, an attribute often over looked. Thankfully Beans cleared money and gave him a real offense, but JA hung in there like few often do.

    "Thankfully Beans cleared money and gave him a real offense, but JA hung in there like few often do." - This is an important point Beane and McDermott were never looking to build a team that would compete for a year .. they are looking to build a team that is always competitive, year after year. That meant carrying lots of dead money as we cut people with bloated contracts. This year they used the space to find people who fit at the right price .. some have been home runs and some have been strike-outs but none put them in cap jail (e.g., Laveon Bell with the Jets). The team has a lot of money to spend next year .. so the team is not prevented from finding the next few guys who fit at the right price and will make the team even more competitive next year.
