    I think one of the fun things in the next few weeks will be watching the haters start to crawl out from the sewers. foaming at the mouth, as they don't know what to do with themselves after such an excellent and consequential draft, one that clearly should move the Bills to the next level.

     

    I have often said they will do the same thing after the Bills win the Super Bowl, and for the same reasons. Confused, disoriented, and seething with anger, they will soon crawl out, lashing, bashing in an even more bizarre, confrontational manner than before, challenging the stupid fans who could still support a team even after it took them much too long to win it all.

     

    lol, McBeane needs to win a Super Bowl first, and then let's see what happens.  I suspect all Bills fans would be so deliriously happy that all past faults that we find in each other or in the management of this team, will be forgiven.

     

    still, the elephant in the room is the actual winning of the Super Bowl, lol.  Beane has never produced a playoff roster that was loaded like the Eagles.  And McDermott has never coached up a playoff roster to play beyond its talent level, particular on defense (his specialty) where the Bills D tends to go in the opposite direction and underachieve or implode against the top QBs.

  2. One of the reasons I'm not quite as upset by the loss to the Chiefs as I should be is because the Eagles are sooooo much more talented than the Bills (outside of QB), it's ridiculous.  An Eagles-Bills Super Bowl wouldn't have looked all that different from Eagles-Redskins in the NFC championship game.

     

    Howie Roseman has embarrassed McBeane by comparison with Roseman's ability to collect talent.

     

    McBeane need to go, or they need to improve a lot.

  3. I'm oddly confident about KC but think the Eagles outclass us in the SB with their roster talent (outside of QB, of course).  We just haven't caught any breaks at all in our path.  Balt-@KC-Phily was the hardest possible path.

     

    I think the year Josh and the Bills finally win the SB, we'll have better path luck.

    Well well well folks i was spot on with lb's for this past 2 playoff games and rb's as well as safety imo, cb's too, oline definitley, ja17 major maturity doing what it takes to win and not too much/mistake free so far...wr a wash and tight end a wash so far haha, the big thing is coaching has become much better and that's encouraging!!

    The biggest takeaway is TEAM 

    LET'S GO WIN IT ALL BILLS BY A BILLION

    Safety no, haha

  5. We should be rooting for the Chiefs to beat the Steelers on Christmas, thus eliminating the Bills from 1-seed "contention" and allowing us to rest as many players as we want in Week 18.

     

    The 14-1 Chiefs are not going to all of a sudden go 0-2 against mediocre teams with the 1 seed on the line.  That's not even pot or cocaine thinking, it's LSD.

     

    The Chiefs will get the 1-seed and the bye and the best way to combat that is for the Bills to get our own de facto bye in Week 18.

    It's quite a shame that as soon as they eliminate the #2 seed bye the Bills start getting it. 

     

    Probably not the best team. I think the 2021 team (13 seconds) was the best team. I do think this team has a ton of potential considering you could be looking at a mostly healthy team in December. I think the Bills match up well with all but the Lions and Ravens. I personally just want the Steelers or Chiefs to knock out the Ravens in the playoffs because I have 0 fear. I think the Bills beat the Chiefs last year in the playoffs in they had a starting LB playing

    we have a better QB than the Lions and Ravens.  I just can't find myself rooting for those two to get knocked out.

  7. Probably not, especially if you factor in "when close to fully healthy," BUT if we get the #1 seed, we'll have the best chance of any team in this era of winning the Super Bowl entering the playoffs.

     

    You could make a separate case that this is the best Allen we've ever had and that Joe Brady's penchant for playing smallball with quick passes and rushing the football buoys Allen's efficiency so that we are better at winning regular season games and thus have a better shot at a #1 seed.

  8. For the cake trick, I for sure would not taste that cake.  The black stuff is not chocolate or cake.  "Mickey" was not a very complex shape with one big circle and two small circles.  (Oz is a rich man can afford better props than typical magicians, but this trick has been around for awhile.)

     

    For the 8850 trick, Josh and his center were in on the trick.

  9. Re: Badolbilz and the WRs

     

    No mea culpa needed yet.  It's definitely fair for him to say to wait for Jan/Feb.  What really matters is playoff football, and D-coordinators do make adjustments over the course of the season.  Frankly, because it's only been 3 games, I think it's still more likely than not that Badolbilz will end up looking more right than wrong re: the WRs.

     

    However, I would say it's past due for Badolbilz to admit that firing Ken Dorsey and putting in Joe Brady was an upgrade, despite Dorsey being a former Cane.  It's not waaay past due yet, but the milk is starting to emit a funky smell.   (And here we do have at least some small sample playoff data.  Under Dorsey, the Bills put up 10 points at home in an embarrassing loss to the Bengals.  While Brady lost to the Chiefs, his offense went up and down the field on KC all game but was let down by the defense.)

    The Bills will never win a Super Bowl while McDermott is coach.

     

    I will piggyback off your post for my own unpopular opinion.

     

    Sean McDermott is 49 years old, keeps himself in good shape, and should be able to live another 40-45 years or so.  Let's give him a full 50 years of remaining life to make it a round number.

     

    The Bills winning the Super Bowl will increase the life expectancy of millions of Bills fans by at least one year.  That's a conservative estimate.  Most people would live an extra 3-5 years, imo.

     

    Millions of (collective) years > 50 years.

     

    Therefore, Bills fans should mob up and murder Sean McDermott in the street.

  11. Stroud scored 3 points today.  I think some folks got drunk on recency bias.

     

    1-0 on my bets so far.  I hope to finish 2-1.  (Well, I hope the Bills win by 1 or 2 but if that's not possible I'd rather lose my bet and have them win).

    The Ravens have been obsessed with their 2019 failure when they were the #1 seed and lost their first playoff game in this round.  That obsession will either drive them to (A) put together one of their best performances in this game or (B) choke.  I tend to think it'll be (A).

     

    Ravens -9.5 is my third favorite bet of this week following TB +6 (previously 6.5) and KC +2.5.

    Healthiest team in the NFL going into Week 18. Only missing Milano. Two weeks later and we fielding a practice squad defense. Unreal. 

     

    this is the cost of losing to the Jets, Patriots, and Broncos.  if we take care of business, maybe we could've rested guys Week 18.  additionally, if we don't choke away the game at Philadelphia, maybe we're not even playing in the wild card round.  there's usually a price to pay for not taking care of business.

     

    but we're here now and we're at home.  hopefully we can man up and next-man-up our way to a W.

  13. Sorry if already covered, but with the postponement, the Bills went from a 9-pt favorite to a 10-pt favorite, and the total went from 33 to 37.5 (crossing the key number of 37).  It's probably true that the Bills have a better chance of beating the Steelers playing it Monday but given that we were big favorites either way, I'd have liked that extra day of rest to prep the Chiefs.

  14. if we get the 2 seed, i'd feel our chances are as good as a typical 2 seed.  maybe better because we have done well against the ravens in past seasons but the sample is small.

     

    if we get a wildcard, i'd also feel our chances are as good as a typical wildcard, meaning not so good.  even during this turnaround, our road performances don't inspire confidence that we could win 3 road games in a row.  KC could easily have been a loss, we choked away the Philly game (and look at their recent results), and we almost lost to the pathetic chargers.

    I think the line would be more pits way if they truly knew.  Baltimore does have really seasoned backups though and Huntley is much better than mason rudolph straight up so who knows 

     

    feels like a ‘could go 3 points either direction when we have more info’ line to me…if the ravens starters play a half I think it’s a pick em 

     

    i mean, Pitt is currently -4, so that's roughly an 11 point swing in the line if it were a normal week.  i think the oddsmakers very much expect the Ravens to do a lot of resting of starters.  even if they play a series or two.
