    Nope. Not what happened. In your earlier post, you engaged in mind reading. You ignored or dismissed my stated reasons for hating the Chiefs, and instead explained why I actually hate them. Your foray into the realm of mind reading failed, as I demonstrated in my response. If you'd done something difficult, such as admit you were wrong, I would have had a lot of respect for that. Instead you took the easy way out, and changed the subject in a transparent effort to deflect blame. It is what it is, but maybe try to be better than this next time around.


    Damn. It’s really not that serious my man. But hate whoever you want for whatever reasons suits you. For most Bills fans KC is enemy #1 in this current NFL. It may change to another team in the future but at the moment KC is the roadblock.

    Nice try. But you're wrong. The NY Giants beat the Bills in the Super Bowl, by a score of 20-19. That loss was the most painful I've ever experienced in my time as a Bills fan. But it didn't cause me to bear ill will towards the Giants, or to Bill Parcells. Bill Belichick engineered the defensive game plan for the Giants. Later, when he was Cleveland's head coach, I rooted for him to do well. I was happy when his team won games at the expense of the Steelers.

     

    That Super Bowl was a clear and obvious case of someone beating us when it mattered most. But the Giants won that game cleanly, fairly, without the refs taking their side. That Giants team seemed like normal football players. Not criminals or people who'd done permanent brain damage to five year old children.


    Man credit to you for correlating that particular loss from 30yrs ago to what’s going on this century. But you do you. For me, KC sending the Bills home the last 3 of 4 years is more relevant. The fact that they went on to win it all this past year made it even more irksome.

    Sorry dude, there are things more important than SB rings, thats a fact!


    Not in the NFL there isn’t.

    In that scenario, I'd still root against the Chiefs. There's something about that franchise which rubs me the wrong way.


    It’s called winning. More specifically winning against our Bills when it mattered most. Pats didn’t do that to our Bills. Mostly because those Bills teams were not good enough to be in those situations.

    The WR market "bursting" will be team specific driven IMO.  You have a mediocre QB you NEED elite WRs.  Those teams will pay.

    You have an elite QB, you can't pay everyone.

     

    What I see with the new cap situation is this.  The days of attempting to put that Superbowl team together with franchise players in positions

    of QB, DE, LT, WR, CB and let's say another team scheme specific player is getting hard to do.  The cap keeps going up but the elite position $s

    seem to be outpacing the whole.

     

    The "KC blueprint" isn't unique.  A few years ago, in regard to WR cost, was exactly what the Patriots did.


    You’re absolutely right about the Pats. They were very successful using that strategy. KC is the latest team to have similar success with this method.

    Waddle is an excellent receiver, but I'm wondering if we're at one of those inflection points where having a number of mid tier guys that can catch is going to be the future vs an all star or two.  I'm hoping anyways! If you had told me 30 years ago that RB was a commodity position, i wouldnt have believed you.


    Teans will start to copy KC’s blueprint and the receiver market would burst eventually.

    I am just saying I don't live and die anymore with the offseason. Josh means they most likely are a playoff team every year and depending on the roster that window varies on the shot but it is there. Pre 2020 offseason just meant more because you needed more from the roster to dictate your success or chances of success. Don't get me wrong they need a ring to finish and fully change the narrative, but these days I just wait for the season to start and get another shot at the ring. At this point there isn't much left to prove, they have won division crowns, playoff games, made an AFC title game etc.. it is SB or bust in terms of expectations so realistically for me the offseason only adjusts maybe my perspective on their chances but in the end I expect the playoffs and another roll of the dice.


    I hear ya. It’s nice to have that feeling of them most likely making the playoffs no matter what happens in the offseason. For me I’m paying even more attention to the offseason for moves that would get the team over the top. That’s really what’s left. Would love to feel like how Pats fans did during their run.

    Probably less now, I understand why Patriot fans basically didn't give a flying f*ck about the offseason for two decades now. If you have a truly great QB you will be in it every year and while some years the roster will be better and others worse, you have a guy who you know can deliver the goods and give you a shot regardless.

     


    Having an elite qb is great but until Bills start stacking trophies together our fans don’t have the luxury of ‘didn’t give a flying ***** about the offseason’. No, we don’t have anywhere near the same feelings they had imo.

    I’m not the argumentative type, but I was just looking at a pic of Don Beebe swatting the ball out of Leon Lett’s hand near the goal line. The House of Speed was the endeavor of a fine man, I do believe. 

     

    Sorry, I had to do it. That was and remains a moving moment for me and one of the best examples of character I’ve ever seen. 


    No apology needed. Thanks for giving me a pleasant flashback. Loved Beebe on those Bills team. But he was chasing a very obese man after all.

    I don’t think it’s a non-story that the Chiefs keep staying in the news for negative reasons. 
     

    This is how empires begin to collapse. Often from within. 


    Yeah one immature receiver that keeps making bad decisions and a couple of backup oline guys getting lit in the offseason will certainly derail them.

    I'm starting to hate these games...

     

    The week leading up to it, the talk is "Chiefs being disrespected" because the Bills are favored. The media heads will talk up how great Mahomes is, run on & on about how he's 3-0 against Allen in the playoffs, calling it a "must win" for both teams, blah blah blah.

     

    Then when the Bills win, the conversation immediately goes to "doesn't matter because it's not the playoffs." 😑

     

    So what was all that hype last week about then? If the Bills lose, it's proof the Chief & Mahomes >>>> Bills & Allen. If the Bills win, it's meaningless because they didn't win in the playoffs (as if they can do that in week 10).

     

    Everyone immediately shrugs us off, and the Bills get no real credit.


    ‘To the victor belong the spoils’ seems apt here.

    He does have a knack for making incredibly awkward looking but effective plays in the clutch.  I’ll give him that much.  He’s a very poor man’s Gabe Davis.


    I have noticed that about him. Hardly any clean catches even with well thrown balls. Like he has a hard time tracking it down. Can’t argue about his playoffs production though. Without him you guys wouldn’t have beaten Cincy in 2022.
