Didn't realize Cook had a hamstring injury during the game. I hope this isn't something that will linger. Anyone have any info on it?

CJ Mosley is a guy on that defense who always seemed to give Buffalo fits. They still have an above average defense for sure, one capable of having big games, but Mosely retiring sure does make me feel a lot better about playing them this season. Go Bills!!

Bills 27 Ravens 20

According to 75% of the members on this board, this is a HUGE upset pick. Sunday night. Buffalo 27, Ravens 23!!

Great points you make here. And I don't think we have the skill set on offense (receivers and tight ends) to get open often 1 on 1 or vs tight man coverage. This is a game where it will be HUGE for Brady to call a heck of a game plan and use motion and different schemes to get guys open. A chance for him to absolutely earn his paycheck right off the bat, and I think he is up to the challenge!!

Benford hasn't practiced since August 21st. Not a huge deal as he was never gone to see snaps against the Bucs in the 3rd preseason game. He did make the field during the last practice last week and was seen doing some work with the strength and conditioning coaches which is normally a good sign. Maybe he pulled something or strained something or maybe the Bills are being overly cautious with him after the injuries to Harriston and White. Either way, we will find out for sure tomorrow but I'm optimistic he will be fine for Sunday nights game.

I don't think I've ever seen this message board so down in the dumps and dreading the 1st week of the season like this, at least not under the current Josh Allen led Bills. The Ravens are a great football team, that much is a given. However, the last time I checked, so are we! The game is in Buffalo, James Cook will be fresh and ready to show off his newfound 'freedom, and the new editions to the D.line are ready to get after it! Last home opener at Highmark and it's Sunday night football as well. I can't wait to circle back to this thread after the win to make sure all the negative nancies are still with us! Buffalo 27, Ravens 20. Go Bills!!!!

Facts. It's okay to criticize our offense sometimes. Some people here act like Josh is Jesus. Silly really.

There are always a host of excuses each year after the Bills lose to KC in the playoffs. KC fans are loving this. I'm sure our tears are quenching their thirst.

If i were a Utah Jazz fan back in the 90's,2000's, I would have used the exact same argument to say Buffalo was just as good as the Chiefs. That Stockton and Malone were just as good as Jordan and Pippen. No-one in their right mind outside the great state of Utah would agree with me but I suppose it would help me sleep better at night!

We all wear rose colored glasses when we view our teams, some more than others. It's called fandom. Just helps to keep things in perspective sometimes. I hope Allen and Mahomes meet again this year in the playoffs and Allen is victorious. Would go a long ways to helping to get out of Mahomes shadow.

All I'm trying to say is that crying about it and trying to mount any type of defense for Allen being a better QB that Mahomes is just plain silly and childish. Sadly there are more than a handfull of Bills fans and homers who will die on this hill no matter how it makes them look. We've had our chances multiple times and have not been able to get it done for a variety of reasons. That's all that matters. Hopefully this season will see new chapters written and in our favor!

I don't agree with you but I appreciate your take. I'm just frustrated that we wine and cry and complain and fight to the death that Allen is better than Paddy. Until the hardware is equal or much closer, no one outside of some Bills fans will ever believe that or give any credit to that thought process. Just reality. I'm not overestimating anyone on our beloved Bills. I'm just tired of all the crying and complaining and whining that we do as a fan base lately. Go out in the playoffs and beat KC. It's as simple as that. Until we can do that, nothing else matters. None of this crying and comparing of qb's to one another is anything more than wasted time.

Posts like this are why Bills fans are the laughing stock and the butt of many jokes over at Chiefs Kingdom. Circumstances don't matter in the end. Nothing is going to matter or change until Allen and the Bills finally beat KC in the playoffs AND win a Super Bowl. Yes, Andy Reid has certainly helped further Mahome's career to this point, but the same can be said in reverse. Andy couldn't get the job done in Philly with Mcnabb, TO, and Westbrook and the team decided to move on from him for a reason. Bottom line, both QB's are great and every team in the NFL would take Mahomes as their starting QB in a heartbeat and every team in the NFL would take Allen as their starting QB with the exception of one team. Narratives can be rewritten and revised and Allen and the Bills are still writing theirs now. Go Bills!!!!
