Ghost_002!

I still think they benefited greatly playing the packers without Rodgers that time. Although their defense looked better against the cowboys (it's the cowboys) they are definitely alive and kicking, still have questions about their defense. to me until otherwise...i say the Chiefs n the Bills and if you want throw the patriots next, cool. But i gotta go with the Chiefs n the Bills because both are the division champs and are still very much alive for SB contention until someone beats them outright.

looking better and playing better yes, but overall a better team. No, i don't think the pats are better. But it's great to see what these two games will bring. Because it's gonna answer ALOT of our questions. Are the Bills back on track and ready to contend for the SB or Is there more they need to figure out. Are the patriots really among the elite or did they just benefit from injuries and weak overall rosters from other teams and still need some tweaking themselves. for me if all things are equal.....i think or thought the pats ceiling for this year was a wildcard game and the bills win the division. But these next games for them overall, not just with the Bills will definitely tell me the deal.

Ok. what are you saying? He is gone and they statically have the number 2 defense. I think some fans do not understand that teams don't play the way they do now or later in the season as they did earlier in the season. Coaches are still doing a lot of "figuring out"what works and doesn't work, besides injuries and stuff of that nature. BB has already been known to use the first few games as "preseason" to figure out what works and doesn't work for his teams.

I do not think i have said otherwise about the Bills defense. You made reference to last season patriots defense which isn't the same as this years defense and guess who is statically right there with the Bills defense? Patriots. It's literally one and two right now as far as defensive rankings are concerned.

He plays on one side of the field right? And he was not their best corner, especially last season it was Gilmore who was injured.

Different team from last year, different defense from last year.

Two different defensives from last year and Gilmore was injured in both Bills games, so the bills never faced their best secondary last year, they faced whatever they could put out there last season. Especially the blowout game. They were so done with injuries and Covid that by the time the bills played them again, they were using safeties as linebackers because they didn't have enough linebackers left.

You are wrong, he has improved. Each week they are given him more and trusting him more with the offense. If you really were to look at him from week 1 to now. He is a different QB; from his reads to what they are asking him to do. He has always been accurate and efficient. And again, he is not the focal point of the offense. Not because he lacks ability, it's because they are bring him along slowly. It's the same approach they have had with all their QBs. They would do the same if Trevor Lawrence was their QB. You are right he hasn't faced any adversity yet, Monday will be a great test. And i remembered you speaking of his pocket protection before. The Oline has gotten better, but in the first few weeks the line was crap and he was getting killed. And i also remembered you saying "he doesn't roll out" or they do not design roll outs for him. I know you seen they had two for him last week versus the Titans again speaking of how much more they are given him and trusting him with the offense. (notice you haven't seen much trick plays these last few weeks...) In the Titans game the running game was not effective and he was fine making plays and throwing the ball. And there were times he was rushed. He either was able to dump it off in the flat or hit Meyers in the middle of the field right before the sack got there, or even audible to another play. Again speaking of his progression as a QB in that offense....things they couldn't get Cam Newton to do.

I think this is pretty accurate, but i think New England's backs are better.

I know, I am not disagreeing with you. Rodney Harrison has done it.

Again... "If the narrative is going to be well the pats played a injured Titans team. The same narrative can be looked at for the win on Thursday against the saint for the Bills, right?" So i can't point that out, I mean it's a football conov.? And this goes to the whole "trolling" thing....where do you see me being overly negative about the buffalo bills, negative at all to them? I been here for over a year, where exactly have i been negative at all toward the bills? Where have I called anyone out of their name here? and I have seen posters here call @PatsFanNH a troll as well... I don't even remember coming in here after any bills lost and saying anything. Actually no i did. It was after the pitts game and i said "fans shouldn't overract, about losing the steelers the bills will be fine...." I mean i figured i was following rules...*shrug my shoulders*

ha ha i know. The local sports shows hates when they do it too. I think all fan base do it...."they are disrespecting us" Ok.

You know what ends all that if it bothers you that much.....win a SB, plan n simple. That's not a diss, since me posting here is being looked at as "trolling" for some reason. It's just saying....you as a fan want your team to get the benefit of the doubt. Win a superbowl. Media will endlessly gush over the bills too.... IMO Bills are still looked at as a SB contender (and it's true). I haven't heard nobody say otherwise. Nobody in the NFL is dominating right now.

Bruh...that is not dissing the Bills. I mean have the Bills been shaky as of late, yes. What the media is supposed to act like fans and just overact? The pats are on a winning streak, given the history and whose their coach...its really not hard to see why the patriots winning wouldn't be a hot topic, but none of it has dissed the Bills. And there is a tie in the division.....i mean..Just saying...

Ok. I will look out, if anything comes up make sure you notify me so i can see.

I am asking you again. Please show me from a "respected" media outlet that is straight up "disrespecting" the buffalo bills in favor of the patriots. And i do mean straight disrespect. Not because they "picked" the pats to win.

What media outlet has disrespected the Bills and please do not give me a Nick Wright post. I mean if fans don't get it's a schtick that goes on in sports shows now a days, i don't know what to tell you. Stephen A. has been poking at cowboy fans for years.....

Hype up the pats yes, but at no point has it or shouldn't to down play the Bills. I haven't heard it or see why it would be. I think Bills have proven to the media they are a good team, so i don't see how they are going to be disrespected.

Please explain how am i trolling? I am talking football. That is allowed here, no? Thats is what is done on EVERYONE message board by fans of said team and opposing fans. Why does a opposing fan have to be "trolling" because you don't like what they have to say...like how long have message boards been created. There are Bills fans on patriots message boards. Like some fans need to stop being so sensitive.

So the disrespect card is out huh!? I haven't heard anyone in the media as of yet talk pro-patriot and leaving the Bills out of it. All i heard was it's going to be a big game on Monday.

To your first sentence. Do you seem me downing playing any bills wins? As i said. If the narrative is going to be well the pats played a injured Titans team. The same narrative can be looked at for the win on Thursday against the saint for the Bills, right? and please show me in ANY of my post, me taunting and trolling anyone. Come on man..you see all my post. let's not act like i come in here breaking any rules.

smack talk? Is it not a reality? He did throw 2 picks to a injured Saints team right? I mean Pats shouldn't feel to good about beating up an injured Titans team...well same could be said for the bills

Whose trolling how old are you? You can't handle a rival team poster on your board!?

awww someone is not in the xmas spirit.

Didn't you guys just beat a Saints team without their starting RB and starting QB(along with other injuries)? A game in which Allen thew 2 picks?
