Yep. Who knew how much this would cost us?
a bunch of us, i think. no hindsight = 20/20 here. even at the time of the loss, a lot of us feared this would cost us valuable seeding down the line.
but oh well, let's keep rolling into the playoffs and see what happens

Took care of step 1, getting in. Now we get a reset. Jag loss, Pit loss..they don’t matter now. LFG!
I'd rather have the #1 seed and a bye week in the playoffs but I hear you regardless. Time to win 4 tough games in the playoffs.

There has been gambling on football for decades and decades, way before the NFL partnered with some casinos. If there are shenanigans going on, it's been going on for a long time. And official relationship doesn't change anything.

Right, the MVP is heavily tied to team success, right or wrong. (This is true in all the major sports). Rodgers is the heavy, heavy favorite.
But who cares? What matters is that Josh has lifted his game at the right time and was brilliant against New England. This gives the Bills a shot in the playoffs.

I've heard so many takes that it said nothing about Jones, because they didn't have to pass. But I agree 100% - it was clear to me what they thought of Jones, and where they think his ceiling might be.
I disagree. Belichick has the same game plan with a rookie Brady or a rookie Josh Allen. Why pass when you don't have to?
Unfortunately part of the "you don't have to" calculation was that Belichick knew the 4th year QB on the opposing sideline wouldn't hurt him (not to mention the opposing OL, OC, etc).
23 minutes ago, FilthyBeast said:Again, I'm not blaming Allen. I've been critical of him but he's probably the only reason this team is 7-5 right and why we were still in the game last night.
But at some point you have simply win games and that's what separates true elite franchise QB's from just good ones. Allen is good but not good enough yet anyways.
That's exactly right. No one is saying Josh hasn't been good. On a scale of 1 to 10, we need him to be a 10 and he's getting paid like a 10, but he's given us a 7 this season.

Compared to Mac Jones? Please. We'll have the better QB as long as he's in NE, by a mile. Last night showed me that the hype is just that - hype. I know people will say they didn't have to pass, but they didn't WANT to pass. Jones is a game manager playing under the best coach & in one of the best systems. He'd be average at best anywhere else.
Jones is easily the best rookie QB and will continue to develop and improve under Belichick. I agree that Allen is better as of today but it might not be the case in two or three years. Hopefully last season was not Josh's peak career season, never again to be repeated.

the first part isn't even true. the chiefs would whip us in the playoffs (again) if we played.

get a time machine to bring last season's Josh Allen into the present.
at a minimum, we win the Titans game and Jags game, probably the Steelers game, and would be way more competitive against the Colts. I mean, the Colts were the more physical team in the playoff matchup last season, too, but Josh kept matching them point for point and pulled out a win. That Josh Allen is gone.

So I guess Kansas City doesn’t count as a good team since they were struggling at the time lol.
i mean, that makes sense to me. now that the Chiefs are playing well, do you think the Bills would beat them?

Did you see the holes the colts had in the run game. Man I would love to see that...
Their oline > ours by 10x. And josh knows that.
it's a salary cap league. when your QB gets paid as much as Allen, you're very unlikely to have an o-line like the Colts.

would Watson for Allen be possible under the cap rules?

75% chance we beat the Colts
