    I don't think we do honestly.  Every play is an experience with him.  Nowadays, it's more "OH ***** HE'S GOT THIS" as opposed to the past when it was "OH *****, WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN???"

     

    Point being, every play that he makes feels like it's be electrifying.  Be it a simple dump off for 2 yards or a 55 yard bomb to Diggs.  Every play you wonder "What's he going to do? (and not in a bad way)" and I love that as a fan, I can only imagine how many hours of sleep have been lost over having to plan against him  (I've lost enough just being excited to watch him).

    They've gotten a lot better at everyone being on the same page and knowing what to do when josh is scrambling and the play breaks down it seems.

    If he wins the Superbowl this year I think the case can be made for sure. But right now that title goes to Mahomes.

     

    But that's fine. Allen is super good.

    I think it depends on how much emphasis you place on the most recent games vs the season as a whole...the chiefs have looked a bit off as of late. Granted they're still winning lol

    This is pretty hilarious.  I'm also impressed Cowherd took the bet.

     

    As much as I think he's a tool a lot of the time, he's very entertaining to listen to.  And when he gets an idea, he's never lukewarm on that idea.  He's almost always just all-in.

     

    Over the last 2 weeks you've seen him go from basically avoiding talking about Josh Allen when talking about how the Bills are a good team to talking about how he might be the 2nd best young QB in the NFL to Mahomes.  It's kind of amazing.

     

    I'm terrified of the playoffs because I'm a Bills fan, but I do think it was a pretty good bet to make.  I really, REALLY hope we pull the Colts in the first round.  Dome team with a grandfather QB with nearly a dead arm who played most of his career in sunny San Diego coming to Buffalo for a January game?  Good grief... I'll almost be even more worried about that game as a trap game.

     

    And then we could potentially get another home game?!?!  Awesome!!!

     

    They should get Pinto Ron to do the honors and I hope to see Nick Wright's ugly mug full of ketchup and mustard

    It would be pretty interesting if we rested starters against Miami and lost to them in week 17 then got them first round of the playoffs...that probably gives us the best chance of winning that first playoff game.  I dont think we'll rest starters though since the 2 seed will be in play

    Is it not outside the realm of possibility that some locker rooms become comfortable with the idea of victory; and in such a mindset, become less focused on the work needed?

     

    There may be no statistical evidence, but there is plenty of anecdotal evidence to suggest that some teams fall victim to this mindset.  
     

    I can recall teams in Gailey Era and the Marrone Era, and 1 Super Bowl, where this was clearly the case. 

    I think maybe at the coaching level they try not to open up the whole playbook against an inferior opponent but players are playing for their careers and to earn that next big contract every week so I wouldnt think it happens at a player level much.  What do I know though 🤣

    My book is offering 150/1 that the Bills finish with the No 1 seed...

    Sounds about right...you gonna take it? 😁 I feel pretty good about us winning out but chiefs dropping those specific two games is a stretch.  On top of that it has to be a three way tie with the chiefs and steelers at 13-3...if the steelers drop 2 out of 3 and finish 12-4 we lose the head to head with the chiefs

    I’ve been hard on Tre this year but maybe he is working his way back into form from his injury’s. 
     

    Tre had a very good game vs the Steelers, we are getting hot at the perfect time.

    Tre doesn't get many opportunities to impress anymore because our cb2 was playing bad most of the season so why throw at white lol I feel like we have a mostly negative bias towards white so far this season that might be a little undeserved 

  7. Now we need to win out and need the chiefs to lose to the saints and chargers and the steelers to finish 12-4 to get the one seed.  Silver lining for those who care about season stats and records and such is I can't see our week 17 game against the dolphins not having huge implications on playoff seeding regardless of if we have clinched the division or not

    Could still reasonably end up anywhere between the 2 and 4 seed.  1 seed is possible but very unlikely as kc will have us in conference record if they lose to the Falcons and saints and beat the chargers.  

  8. I think the op is relevant to the browns...im sure they would like to give baker the keys to the offense but don't trust him to do so.  Greg roman doesn't seem to ever give his quarterbacks opportunities to sit in the pocket and go through progressions.  I wouldnt say its lamar being figured out its more of an indictment of the Greg roman offense

    Nick's decided antagonizing people is the best way to get attention in the social media driven, Click!Like!Subscribe! world of sports punditry.  How sad 

    I can totally see that but at least have some logic behind a controversial take haha the point these josh haters are trying to prove had moved far into indefensible territory.  Nick Wright is saying the bills are good and josh allen is bad? How have we been winning then? The defense is improving but I think its safe to say had a down year.  We have no running game... we aren't impressive in the turnover margin category...and we've had a pretty difficult schedule.  I'd love to hear his explanation of how we are winning games because josh allen is objectively the answer to that question.

    Yeah, we've faced some tough defenses already and still have more to go. NE can show up and play defense, and Miami has a tough defense too.

    This schedule has been brutal...even the teams we play with sub .500 records are teams that could show out and beat anybody that lose a lot of close games (outside of the jets lol)

    I think we need to focus on letting Daboll go out with a ring, and groom Dorsey to take the job over.  Daboll's as good as gone and I don't think money has anything to do with it.  You don't get into that business to turn down a chance to run the whole show.

    Its possible he might wait for a specific job to open up that he likes..a lot of times these coordinators will take head coaching gigs for trainwreck organizations and they end up getting fired in 3 years and never get another chance

    I think Knox is starting to play pretty well.  The fumble obviously wasn't ideal, but I'm not going to let that wipe away the fact that he's been looking like a solid TE for a few weeks now. 

    I think we're seeing a bit of an overreaction because he had that 'drop' on the deep ball just before the fumble so it was back to back plays of screaming KNOX at the TV lol.  That looked like a tough catch on that deep ball though

    I spent some time playing with espn's playoff machine and it looks likely that if we win this week AND Buffalo, KC and Pitt end the year tied at 12 and 4 or 13 and 3, the Bills would earn homefield advantage and a bye with the one seed in the playoffs. It looks like we woukd win alot of the potential three way tie breakers. If you're like me and obsessing about the Bill's chances, please check my work!

    I went through this a lot as well 🤣 if you're rooting for the 1 seed three way tie scenario Miami has to beat kc tomorrow and that would be a terrifying couple hour wait for us before we hopefully win our game too lol
