    With this current era of Bills football can we finally lay the 90s Era to Rest? Are you ok with it?

    I think the '90s SB teams will lose some of their position in history if and when the current team wins a SB.

     

    Not appears in, but WINS, a SB.

     

    In a world where the current regime makes it to the big dance and WINS, the '90s teams will seem less relevant and I think talk about them will naturally tail off a bit.


    People will still remember them forever and the players will always be favorite Bills for many.

     

     

     

    Agreed. To date the 90s era Bills has done more than this era.

    Breaking News: Doctor that cleared Tua in concussion protocol is fired...

    If ‘The Doctor’ is working the Medical Tent, then he is the one making the call. Who else is to blame? Do you think that the team has a secret ‘if Tua gets a concussion?’ Policy in advance? Tua should never have returned to the field, against the Bills

     

     

    Everyone watching that game knew Tua had concussion. It did not need a medical professional to say otherwise; McDaniel could have stepped in and said Tua would not return.

    Dolphins Fans Reactions to Tua’s Injury

    That’s my take. How can McDaniel not be lying?  How can they change the injury in Bills game from a head injury to a back injury?  How can they double down on the back injury during the week… but also be testing him for a concussion all week?  It wasn’t a head injury, they say, but they give him multiple concussion tests still.

    And now the doctor gets fired?

     

    It’s not adding up. 

     

    The NFLPA - whose thoughts, I think, are along the same wavelength as most people - sacked the doctor. But they can't sack doctors hired by the team.

    Despite my OTT reaction last week, my pessimistic prediction at the start of the season, once the schedule was released, was a 2-5 start before winning the remainder, except maybe against the Bengals. So it'd be great to win tomorrow, but a defeat won't be the end of the world.

    A lot of the Ariza reaction also fell along the lines of "he's just a punter" responses. Tua  is not looked upon as the franchise for half that fan base. He's expendable. Many Miami fans would likely cut ties with Tua before Mike McDaniel if they had to make a choice. And McDaniel has only been at the helm for 4 games. 

     

    Very much a different situation in Buffalo where Allen has become this entire organization. 

     

    That said, I would like to think I would also lay into McDermott and Beane if Allen were put in a similar situation. And Allen is the ultimate competitor, it's probably just a matter of time before those boundaries are tested and hopefully the Bills organization makes the right decision. 

     

    They pulled him in 2019 when he suffered a head injury and wanted to continue playing. Though we wasn't quite the central figure then he is now, but I think that would mean we'd protect him even more in these kinds of situations. Not that that should be what decisions are made on - if someone's concussed they need to be pulled from the game immediately.

    NFLPA initiating investigation into Tua’s concussion protocol

    Hostility during the investigation process?!?!

     

    I presume against those from the NFLPA who were asking him questions about it?

     

    Although this is the right move, anyone watching Tua could see he was concussed. It should not have needed a independent consultant to say he's concussed before pulling him from the field.

     

    I hope that win is worth it for the Dolphins. The '3' against their name is clearly more valuable than Tua's health.

    I know they are talking heads, but here comes the Lamar MVP talk again-Hope Sunday changes all that

    Agree. Lamar has been excellent. 

     

    I think Bills fans have a real bee in their bonnet about Lamar. It seems to trigger them. I think that is because they have been writing him off for 2 and a bit years since his MVP season and he keeps playing well. 

     

    Of course I wouldn't swap Allen for Jackson. But newsflash.... other teama have good QBs as well. It is as if certain Bills fans have to believe every other QB sucks for Josh to be great. Which is crazy. Josh's ability is independent of anything else and he shows it almost every Sunday.


    I think it’s also because there’s an element of a victim complex from Bills fans towards the media over Josh. That every error and mistake he makes is magnified whilst it’s overlooked with other quarterbacks. Whether that’s fair or not is up to debate, but I think that’s why there is an attempt to criticise, in some cases overly, other quarterbacks who are doing well - because there’s a feeling they’re waiting to come down heavily on Josh but not many others.
