  1. Virgil, don't know why you or anyone thought we could beat the Pats.

    Reality is we are just a so so team, not good or bad. The playoffs were

    made by a soft soft schedule.There was not one good team we beat

    all year. I believe the only team we beat with a winning record was

    Pittsburgh (8-7)who probably won't make the playoffs with poor QB

    play and could't beat the bad Jets yesterday.

    Substitute the 49ers, Seahawks and Rams in place of the Cowboys,

    Giants and Redskins and we wind up  8-8 or 7-9 

    Just to upset more people, Allen's passing numbers don't match

    Tyrod Taylor's but maybe we get lucky in the playoffs. Better to be 

    lucky than good. 

  2. It is so positive to be a Allan fan and he is the franchise QB of the Bills

    that we have waited so long for, but (and there is a but) we know his

    accuracy leaves much to be desired, and and unless he gets a QB

    whisperer, it is what it is.

     

    Being a franchise QB in the NFL and $2.75  will get me on the bus and

    no more. You can name all the franchise QBs who have never made it

    to the SB much less won one. So let us hope for some playoff success

    and more winning seasons.

  3. "Because the Bills aren't championship caliber yet".

     

    This is a now league my friend. Just because you make the playoffs this

    year doesn't mean much due to free agency and who knows how the

    draft pans out. The Rams  went from the SB loss last year to missing

    the playoffs when many of there fans thought they would win the SB.

    Many teams have 1/3 in change of personnel. 

    We know what McD is, we know what Allen is, what we don't know is

    what the front office will do this spring and summer.

     

  4. 1. I understand the emotions we are all going through because it is the
        Pats and they almost always beat us, but----.

    2. They were the better team on the field yesterday unfortunately.

    3. Those of you talking about next year forget it. With free agency and the

     . crap shoot that is the draft, who would have thought the Rams would go

       from the Super Bowl to missing the playoffs. Changes not predictable.

    4. How many times over the years has Edelman destroyed us. Inexcusable.

    5. 4th and inches in the 4th quarter and punting?  Again, playing not to win,

        but not to lose.

    6. Allen. He is the Bills franchise guy for the  next 15 years. Too good to trade,

        but disagree if you want, not good enough to get to or win the SB.  You all

        know all the  franchise guys I am talking about in the league. Rivers,

        Carr, Stafford, Ryan, Dalton, Luck, Big Ben, Rogers, and have I left anyone

        else out? If anyone out there knows how to teach Allen and all other QBs

        how to be more accurate, bottle it and you will become wealthy. 

  5. It was a great win last night and we are on to New England, and we are all

    happy but lets stop the pom poms on Josh Allen. He is a franchise QB for

    the Bills, but what does that mean. It means he is too good to ever be traded

    but right now and maybe never, does he win the big one. There are many

    franchise QB's in the NFL. Among them P Rivers, M Ryan, M Stafford, D Carr,

    among others but even winning a playoff game does not make you great.

     

    Eli Manning is a god in the tri state area (NYC, NJ, Conn) because he won 

    two Super Bowls. He can walk into any bar there and never have to pay for a

    drink. I would like to buy Josh Allen I drink one day. But passing the past

    two weeks for 146 and 139 yards does not win much. . That does not win

    Super Bowls. he is rated poorly among NFL QB's because that's who he is

    now and maybe forever.

     

    Let's get real.  Some of you guys ran Tyrod Taylor out of town and he put up

    some better numbers then Allen has. If we beat the Pats it will be because

    of Defense, not Josh Allen.

  6. We all know playing QB in the NFL is the hardest position in sports to play,  

    which is why QB's get the big bucks.

    Think of all the franchise QB's in the NFL who are too good to trade, 

    but not good enough to win anything- Rivers, Ryan, Stafford, Carr, etc. etc.

    Allen threw for 139 yards last night, 146 the week before. If those were Tyrod

    Taylor's numbers he would be run out of town which he was. The defense won

    the game last night. Allen did not. All rating systems have Allen between

    25 and 30. No one is going to the Super Bowl throwing for 140 yards even with

    no turnovers which is no gimme with Allen.

  7. I am enjoying myself and congratulations to the Bills organization, but

    facts are facts. There is a lot of parity in the NFL this year and on any

    given day or night most all teams either can win or throw in a stinker.

    Explain Atlanta beating San Francisco today. The Bills had a soft strength

    of schedule this year and took advantage of it. That has nothing to do with 

    a culture change.

  8. You had 2 downs , 1 minute and a time out with a beast of a running back,

    to make 4 yards or more for the win (or tie with a shorter kick); or 1 down, 

    a few seconds and no time outs with a kicker who earlier missed a 34 yard kick

    and had not made a 50+ kick all year long  to make a 53 yard kick.

    And wasn't our kicker injured a year or two ago, and not been real good since?

     

    In the entire history of the Buffalo Bills this may have been the worst

    decision or game management call by a coach ever.
