Let them make all the excuses they want. I certainly can see Mahomes laying an egg. I don't get the sense he's as competitive in nature as Josh is. And I think as a team the Bills will show they want it more and don't think KC will keep up.

The way I see it is which Mahomes will show up. I'm not worried about Josh showing up. I think he's just embraced having ice in his veins and that's letting him play with a calm steadiness that's helping him play perfect games. Not generally a football stat like baseball has no-hitters for top pitchers, Josh is creating the football version of no punting no turnovers.

Yes there were some ugly games but the Bills are showing us what they learned from this seasons ups and downs. Only 1 game into playoffs and they are letting everyone see this is a team you gotta outplay and good luck with that.

Bills have embarrassed Belicheck during the drought it was just obviously fluke bounces though. JA17 and this team including coaches gm owners have finally succeeded in getting the better talent to where it takes those flukes for Belicheck to win. This year he got the wind and gave NE fans false hope. It's gonna be that way until they have a new franchise QB. How far will Jones develop we shall see but I don't worry he'll overtake the Josh Allen advantage. It's a great future for Bills fans and I can also see JA17 being a good mentor for when he's ready to call it a HòF career.

This! We win those games in convincing fashion and leave no doubts to all that the Bills were the best team in 2022.

Pro Football HOF gonna be asking for Josh's jersey and cleats from this game too? Maybe they need to be charged a fee that can be paid out to the Patricia Allen at Oshei for the rights to have these Josh Allen game worn jerseys for their future JA17 exhibits.

Hope he got a decent contract that he will get paid several years without having to do anything.

He also has first hand experience being in a lockerroom that was not even trying to develop him and with the bills he sees the difference and if he can find a spot with that and they offer to sign him great, but if he only gets offers from unsettled coaching staffs he may feel it's better to keep developing while earning a fair buck and not taking the punishment of a starting QB. You can earn a good living via longevity as well as if you get to be the starter. I have no idea where Trubisky's priorities lean I think signing with Buffalo indicates he felt he needed to learn some things and he may be happy to keep learning a year or two more. It's not like he was complete garbage in Chicago.

Well think of it as you spared yourself the heartaches if you had been at some of the drought heartbreakers.... and there have been plenty. You may have even thought you attending was a jinx (and convinced yourself to not attend any important games). Now that we have a good team that's really fun to watch you'll be at games that will be deciding playoff seedings for however long this current winning era continues. Maybe they won this game because you made the trip.

Well Whaley sold his condo to Eichel but now I'm sure it's for sale again.

Add Green Bay - shoulda been SB1 Green Bay vs Buffalo with Bills winning the first SB.

Think they changed that one or 2 years ago so comp picks can be traded. Since 2017 they can be traded I just googled it.

Also Cribbs was part of the 3 team trade that got Cornelius Bennett to Bills. If memory serves wasn't Erik dickerson part of the trade as well? I'll have to google it as I'm just going on memory and that's some 30 odd yes ago for exact details. My bad it was rb Greg bell not Cribbs in the Bennett trade,but I did get Erik dickerson as part of the trade right Colts got him from rams.

If we score more points we will win. They could score 1 td nothing else and lose to 3 fgs. Yes I want them to have good success in the red zone by not settling for fgs, but also know when it is better to take the sure 3 points and make the opponent press to keep up.

I always thought that State Farm is missing the perfect marketing campaign if they used Josh Allen instead of Rodgers or Mahommes. Those two only seem to want to be sure they get their 'special rates'. Josh would have more class and just explain he lives in the City of Good Neighbors and knows how well that works and challenge State Farm to live up to the level of WNYers who are always there for good causes. Maybe State Farm just doesn't match up well compared to real Good Neighbors. I agree also that the USAA ads with Gronk miss the mark with poor attempt at humor. It misses the mark as This multi-millionaire tries to get the rates that veterans have earned by serving the country instead of playing a game. I'm a veteran and I dislike the USAA commercials with Gronk but I think know he's a big jerk anyway and I myself would rather he not try to associate himself with WNY because I have yet to see him conduct himself in any way that exemplifies what I expect from any true WNYers. Just cause he grew up here it doesn't seem he's got WNY values.

You're mixing up eras the Miami Buffalo rivalry was sparked over the Shula 70's. Once Marino joined the dolphins his record against Buffalo is only 13-17. Marino had no running game much like Allen so he never dominated the Bills.

Also the wind at Highmark has that swirling effect due to how the stadium was built. Be interesting to see how they draw up plans for the new stadium if it ends up being in OP and if they factor best way to maybe minimize the winds effect on games played at the new stadium. In any event the same swirling wind effect doesn't travel with the team so the weather and wind factor may play out quite differently.

You are thinking of Corey Glenn helping us get the draft pick used for Josh. Wyatt Teller was drafted the same year we drafted Allen.

Well not to be too much of a spelling checker and a polish spelling checker to boot, but the pronunciation of ka-czar-check can not be in anyway correct in that there is no 'a' in the early spelling of ksiezarczyk to have a ka sound to begin it. If the pronunciation is given by the actual player then its just an English deviated pronunciation. Polish is pronounced as it is spelled no off the wall silent letters like English has the silent e. It's perfectly acceptable to use the posted ka-czar-check but only if it was stated to be that pronunciation by the actual player. The actual correct polish pronunciation would start with the k blending with the sie which is a polish word by itself. Jak sie masz? Sie is pronounced as che as in the word chef without the f. So kche-czar-check would be the proper Polish pronunciation not ka-czar-check. Barring hearing the ka-czar-check pronunciation from the players own lips that ka-czar-check is incorrect. I will always use the correct Polish pronunciation over the anglicized versions of Polish names. Just needed to correct that claim for correct pronunciation as it cannot be, other than an anglicized version, which is acceptable if offered up by the actual person with the surname in question.

Psa kref cholera.

The big thing Josh is gonna learn is if he takes the short stuff the defenses will have to adjust and once they have to defend the whole field Josh will get his splash plays as he picks them apart short and long.

Ok which one of you sent him ex-lax coated chicken wings?

Yea because they essentially are weakening the protection to qbs by weak call like this compared to say oh diving for a QBs knees when he has clearly already thrown the ball and is no longer allowed to be hit. Ala an elbow to the knee of Losman and causing a serious injury. I don't remember the hit to Losman if it was a late hit it was so clearly a dirty hit from my viewpoint in that he seemed to target the knee and could have avoideid it easily. I'd have to go watch the play again today to see if my memory is accurate or if the dislike for patriots is blurring the play to fit my natural bias as a Bills fan.

From my viewpoint he was pushed but that too was without enough force to send him off balance. He certainly had enough control he had no risk of injury to himself and likewise the injury factor to Murray was low. I didn't watch entire game so no clue if there were any borderline hits earlier between that flagged player and Murray. If it was chippy since the first snap then they may have decided to call any little thing.

But not with enough force that he was out of control. He had enough control he could have pulled up and not contacted Murray, at all he just decided he got shoved so he'd try to sell he was pushed into Murray. The problem gets to when a player decides well I'm gonna at least give a hit that hurts the opponent that justifies the flag and fine that it will incur. We all know there are literally some players that are outright thugs. That's not even accounting for the injuries that naturally will occur with such a violent fast sport. And the stress some of these players put on their bodies training results in some of those serious non contact injuries. So trying to protect their product they will control what they can get away with without losing fans.
