Again, two years ago under the McDermott regime. We lost 34-21, with two of our TD's coming in garbage time at the end I'm talking about the team under McDermott as a whole. He's found a way to get blown out in each season.

Two years ago during the primetime game

If there's anything I'm the most scarred by in the past decade, it's the two 5-2 starts to the season where we missed the playoffs. I remember the pure confidence believing we would make the playoffs as only an obsurdly small number of teams started like that and didn't make them. That, plus numerous prime time losses, the Pats for the past twenty years, and Billsy things makes it really hard for me to predict a plus-.500 win season. I know all the reasons why everyone thinks we will win 9, possibly 10-11 game. I see what they see. But here's why I see 8. 1 - Blow-Out Losses. Each season under McDermott, we've had more than a few blow-out losses for no excusable reason. Games where we just don't show up at all. I believe that's something that will continue to happen until it doesn't. 2 - We play the Pats twice and they are our Daddy until they aren't. 3 - No matter how much of a joke the Dolphins or Jets seem to be to me, we rarely sweep both in the same season. We find a way to play to their level. Even the season we made the playoffs, we barely beat the Dolphins both games. The Jets, who were a much worse team than us a last year were one of the games we got blown out of. 4 - Offenses can make a jump in the offseason, but usually not THAT big of a jump. I know the Rams just did it, but that's typically rare. Also, when half of your receiving core is brand new, chemistry and rhythm takes time. Same goes for an entirely new offensive line. It's not about talent, it's about playing as a team. It can take teams half a season or a whole season to click. 5 - I don't think Ed Oliver was all we needed to improve our pass rush. I've made it known I wanted Allen, but it's not about that. Unless Murphy makes a big comeback, rookie DT's don't typically make that kind of impact their first year. I think the current guess is 5 sacks, which would be a great season for him. Either way, that's not going to be a huge difference maker. I don't see the light magically turning on for Shaq either. 6 - Allen looked fantastic after he came back from his injury, but as another post/article suggested, he still had serious accuracy issues. Could he make that jump forward? Yes. Could he not? Also yes. In the NFL, unless you are a consistent top 5 team, it's truly any given Sunday and we the Bills until proven otherwise. To be clear again, I can see where all the 10-6 love is coming from and why it should happen. But I also know the Bills doing Billsy things, remember those 5-2 starts, and how we find a way. For those who want the break-down: Jets x2 - Split Dolphins x2 - Sweep them Pats x2 - Swept by them Division 3-3 @ Giants - Win vs Cincy - Win (Only because it's the home and early in the season. These games go either way against them) @Titans - Either way (Billsy Loss) vs Eagles - Loss vs Skins - Win @ Cleveland - Loss vs Broncos - Win @ Cowboys - Loss (primetime) vs Ravens - Win because we do well against them at home or Loss because their defense just spanks us. I feel like McD defense shuts down Lamar. But we are Billsy.... @ Steelers - Loss It comes down to the Titans and Ravens for me. Should we win on paper, yes. Do we do that usually, no. Roast me!

No! You make a decision this moment and either write him off or don’t!

This really doesn't make me feel better about the accuracy issue. To be dead last in these metrics and not much better even after the break is tough to read. I get that short throws will help with that, but I always wonder just how much a QB can increase their overall accuracy. I feel like you either have it or you don't.

How is it compared to the one in Rochester? I take my daughter every time we go up. She loves it

I don’t think you’ll find that’s true with over half of this board

With his suspension history, he should play on good faith. Dudes a ticking time bomb and any team would be an idiot to give him long guaranteed money. That contract would need to have conduct clauses

How dare you respond to me with logic and facts? Who do you think you are?!?

Honestly, why is he qualified for this job? He couldn’t grasp the NFL and it’s been almost two decades since he played in college. So much has changed. Is this anything more than a name grab?

Dibs. She looked straight at the arc without blinking

Yup, just did

2 preseason games and add an extra bye week. That would seem to cover the safety bucket.

Shoulda traded alcohol for some proactive.

I genuinely don’t understand half the ***** you are all saying in this

I always go through the same cycle of thoughts: 1 - wtf game is that kid running? 2 - who creates a digital fingerprint anymore? 3 - why is this adult so stupid and desperate. Then I remember, oh yeah, they are lonely, desperate, and stupid enough to ***** a kid. So yeah, there is no logic and reason when it comes to messed up people. It’s scary how often this happens and people convince themselves they are in a special situation that no one else would understand.

Okay yes, you got me. But I went deeper. Zoom in on some of the top two. I think I see a VHS and audio tape out for recent use. Plus, the pic on the wall....wtf?! There’s some seriously weird ***** goin on in that house. Well, obviously but, c’mon now...

It’s all so they can leave themselves enough room to make extra cards and cash in off gamers more. EA pay to play

68 is too low for Ford. But the rest make sense. Ford should be low 70’s

I mean, we do until we don’t

Is it because he was on a show called “Buffalo Bill” that this isn’t on ‘off the wall?’

I don't know if he can do it on the first try. It might take him two throws to get there

Whatever it ends up being, I'm sure Rob Ryan will pay him 20% more to play for him

I feel like seeing him at all this season would be an upgrade over last year
