    They are extremely confident right now. Not sure there are any easy outs on the afc side from the 8 teams with a shot to get in. 
     

     

    The Dolphins are an easy out. I don't know why we'd pretend differently. They just aren't very good and we should be hoping to play them round one. The Steelers are also looking like an easy out.

     

    Outside of that, the Browns struggle to beat good teams, who knows what you get with Baltimore, the Colts are decent but not scary. Titans and Chiefs are easily the most worrisome competition.

    Division, check. Let’s keep this thing goin!

     

    side note anyone else think they should have pulled the starters sooner? Was getting a little nervous there. Couple minor injuries but holy crap Josh don’t block for your RB when you’re up 4 scores in the 4th!!

    Isn't that why we all love Josh Allen?

    I wanted the Bills to draft D.K., then Higgins after that fell through.  Before that I wanted the Bills to sign Allen Robinson (who would have been here a year before Josh) or explore a trade for Julio Jones.

     

    Been trying to get a stud receiver on this team since Dez Bryant declared.  Finally, we have one with Diggs. *exhale*

     

    Now, on to the RB position.  The final missing piece between the Bills and the Lombardi, IMO.

     

    Jury is still out on Moss and Singletary is good, but we need a 3 down stud.

    I think Singletary can be that. He started off slow, but his now up to 4.3 YPA. Last year he was 5.1.

     

    I really would not want to invest in a RB. I feel like RBs are so highly dependent on the O-Line and that lines up because Singletary has gotten significantly more productive since the O-Line has gotten healthy. Moss is pretty good too. Neither of them has that breakout speed, but we aren't reliant on the run game so we just need Motor to give a different look every few plays, and get our big plays through the air.

    i've said this before in another thread when somebody was claiming we "lost" the trade while they were just referencing jeffersons stats. Diggs brought a handful of extremely important things that arent on any stat sheet. Things that a rookie or even a year 2 guy isnt gonna bring. From what i've read he's a tireless worker. When your top 2 offensive players are there to outwork everyone, theres a trickle down effect.... i would guess the mindset that him and josh have brought rubs off on everyone. When the top guys set a standard everyone else feels that sense to duty.

     

    4th and 3 and we gotta have it..... I may be taking diggs over ANYONE.

    Also not really talked about, but how many times have we seen a good run happen because Diggs made a big block.

     

    There are some times where I think he's a bit lacksadaisical where he'll kind of stop while running a route because he thinks the play is dead, but I'm going to chalk that up to him not being used to Josh's ability to extend plays beyond a reasonable limit. Last few games we have seen him work to give Allen someone to pass to while he's scrambling.

     

    It's just the start of, hopefully, a long and prosperous relationship. I don't regret this trade even a little, other than I wish we got him at the DeAndre Hopkins pricetag.

    Diggs has brought an attitude to our offense that we haven't had in forever.  He has helped our mentality and that is something that has tremendously helped us that's not measured on the stat sheet.

    Collinsworth and Tirico brought up the idea that Cole Beasley rubbed off on Diggs and I wonder if this is true. Cole is an amazing route runner, and I wonder if he's helped Diggs become even better in that department, because the way Diggs is breaking ankles now is unbelievable. I never watched the Vikes too much, though, so I can't say he's always been this good or not.

    You play the schedule (that covid-19) gives you.

     

    Sucks to be them for sure but I'm not going to act like it doesn't make me grin a little.

    It's just annoying because the Bills are a better team, all injuries aside. It shouldn't bother me but guys like Keyshawn Johnson are saying "where's Buffalo's signature win?" (Uh, try against the Seahawks, dummies) and the Steelers being somewhat injured gives them more excuses.

     

    And, amazingly, when people are now talking about the Bills' defense, it's all magical. "Oh they figured something out!" Nothing to do with Edmunds being injured, Milano being injured, White being injured at times. But the Steelers are super quick to cry about losing Dupree and Bush. Every team has had to deal with this stuff.
