  1. And it struggled under Daboll, too. See Pittsburgh, Jacksonville, Indy games in 2021 and Titans, Chiefs (both games), Jets game, and Ravens divisional round game in 2020.
  2. I thought maybe this team had a little 2007 or 2011 Giants in them. I wasn't confident that they would get there or win it but I did start to allow myself to believe that maybe it could happen. The story started to feel good. 6 wins in a row, finally a home game against KC, Allen's 3rd playoff matchup against Mahomes. Were we going to beat Baltimore? I don't know. If they beat KC, I could see that momentum vaulting them into an upset victory in Baltimore and then the Super Bowl. But... good stories are just that — stories. In the real world the rich get richer, they dynasties win, and the little guy loses in the end.
  3. I'd say he gives you exactly what you can expect out of an edge rusher drafted at the end of Round 1. The Bills need to be a lot worse to have a shot at drafting an actual game-wrecker on the edge.
  4. FWIW, it took the Eagles a long time to move on from Reid. And it didn't immediately work out for the Eagles, either. But yeah, at this point, the Bills expecting different results in the playoffs without making major changes is the definition of insanity.
  5. ok, 17 years to the day and Josh Allen wearing number 17 gave me chicken skin.
  6. I'm more of a look back in the rearview and think, "oh, yeah, that was destiny" type of a guy than a proclaim it in advance kind of a guy.
  7. He might be on to something here... that 9-0 lead in 2020 wasn't enough. If only it had been 10.
  8. "Weird Hawaii churchy type" is never a thing I would have thought. And then you said it and I'm like, yeah, that 100% is it. 😆 No, it’s not the camera angle. He’s fat and out of shape, no sugarcoating. He’s not even remotely fast, agile, or elusive to begin with…so you’re left with a fat statue in the pocket. Played out that way to end their season, not surprised. Someone on finheaven said Tua was fat, slow, and had short little legs. I fell out of my chair at "short little legs."
  9. Why do we have such a selective memory about Daboll? The reason that 2021 Divisional Round game against the Chiefs was so epic was because the Bills had to come from behind because the offense hit a lull in the middle of the game.
  10. It's funny - I always see opposing fans describe us as "insufferable" and "cocky," but we're always waiting for the other shoe to drop. Always. It's decades of history, as well as everything that happened just this season. I don't think anyone really knows what to expect w/ this team. If I'm being honest, I'm still slightly nervous about the Steelers game.
  11. What I like about the Pat McAfee show is that Pat (and AJ and the rest of the crew) genuinely love football and other football players. They don't tear guys down. They just root for everyone. It's a nice change from the scripted debates and arguments on every other show.
  12. The Texans have a little 2021 Bengals in them. An upset isn't impossible, but the Ravens have given zero reasons to doubt them at home.
  13. I remember another #24 that really struggled early in his career but ended up becoming pretty good starting cornerback for this team, and that's Terrence McGee.Now, obviously McGee wasn't a first round draft pick, but he's an example of a guy who I remember being an absolute liability in coverage turning into a good starter.
  14. I don't know if Elam will ever live up to his draft spot. I don't know if he will ever become a starting CB on this team. The way things have gone for Kaiir this year being a healthy scratch for much of the season... I know that can be a very difficult thing to overcome mentally. And then with the way things were going when he got in the game, getting run over, getting beat bad on routes, to come back from all that and make that play at that moment? I couldn't have been happier for Kaiir. I don't know if he's going to turn into a good football player... but as a human? I learned a lot about Kaiir last night, and I liked what I saw.
  15. Miami's defense was more depleted than ours and they were able to keep Miami in the game against KC. That gives me some reason for optimism going into this game... beyond that, though? Who knows.
  16. “where you can wear a sweater and be happy.” 😂😂😂 I’m dying.
  17. Devonta Smith weighs so little he doesn’t need ankles
  18. This is the premier rivalry in the NFL for the current generation — Every bit as good as Brady vs. Manning.
  19. Bills fans for shoveling the heck outta that place.
  20. All night Miami has looked like they do not want to be there. Josh Allen broke them.
  21. In 1935, a game between the Boston Redskins and Philadelphia Eagles was canceled due to rain and snow making the field unplayable. Bunch of softies back then, too.
  22. I don’t know why, but I’ve just got this feeling that you own a funeral parlor.
