Bills win Super Bowl LX
Bills Mafia, rejoice. Buffalo really did it. After coming up short four times in a row in the early 1990s and then knocking on the door in recent years with Josh Allen, the Bills finally burst through with a statement win.
Buffalo was the best team in the regular season, winning 13 games to earn the No. 1 seed in the AFC. Allen won his second straight MVP award -- no controversy this time -- and the Lombardi Trophy was considered Buffalo's to lose.
The Bills' No. 1 seed earned them a divisional round matchup against a plucky Titans team that wasn't ready for the moment. The Bills won 28-14. The real test came in the AFC Championship Game -- the last game ever in Highmark Stadium.
The betting market pegged the Bills as 7.5-point favorites over the Buccaneers, which was more than enough. The Bills opened with a two-score lead in the first eight minutes on a 56-yard touchdown run by James Cook. It didn't get closer, so Allen hardly needed to make big plays. Cook took home Super Bowl LX MVP with his three touchdowns, and the Bills were finally victorious, trouncing Tampa Bay 55-23.Need for a lot to happen for us to win it

Sort of curious how the Bills run their tush push this year given how it petered out against KC, and also whether there might be some variations and trick plays from it.
For example, not sure many people saw this, but New Mexico pulled off one of the best fake tush push plays I have seen on Saturday.
I saw that and my first thought was, WTH didn't Brady call something like this in the AFCCG when we were getting stuffed?

Imagine this team if more of our draft picks from the 1-3 rounds the past few years were bigger
At this point, take care of his surgery,then reach an injury settlement. Let him rehab and try to get a roster spot somewhere else.

Too many injuries or suspensions, to key players, early on.
And our promising rookie class still has to “learn the ropes”.
I just don't like this game at all right now.

Damn it sucks. But honestly, I don’t think he was playing much this season anyway. He probably would’ve been a healthy scratch as he was last season.
I like the draft pick at the time but I’ve never been overly impressed with Carter, sans 1 or 2 plays against Tennessee last season. You can blame the injury if you want, but his tape last year was really bad. It’s not coincidence the Bills drafted 2 players at Carter’s same position this year.
Beane said they were hoping to move him to 1-Tech but that’s not his natural position and I don’t feel it would have went well
He never was average in the NFL. His play was below average most of the time
Agreed. Sorry, but another bad pick by Beane

I tried this one last year, but Milano's Bicep injury in training camp quickly ended the suspense in that one, so I thought I would try it again this year.
I have also included a games missed due to injury question as well.
I'm really not sure what to expect from Milano at this point, and even Bernard had a lackluster season last year as well, but if these guys can both stay healthy, could they re-capture the promise they showed playing together in the first five games of the season two years ago before Milano's season ending leg injury??
I think there is a case to be made for the over, such as the increased strength of the Defensive line and size of the Defensive tackles freeing them up to make more plays, but recent injury history is hard to overlook....
My Prediction:
My gut tells me to take the under on production and the over on games missed due to injury, but I would really love to see what these two guys could do if they stayed healthy for an entire season together.
I am going to split the difference, and say they both will stay healthy this year, but not quite reach the number of 11 to take the over in production....under on production, but also under on games missed due to injury.
What do you think??
Over and over

Bills had only 2 team captains last season vs 8 in 2023. 10 additional players on the "leadership council" last season. Last years captains were Allen and Bernard.
2023 had Gabe Davis, Stefon Diggs, Josh Allen, Jordan Poyer, Micah Hyde, Von Miller, Tyler Matakevich and Mitch More.
What direction do we have the Bills going in this year?
-8 captains
-2 captains with the "leadership council"
-Something totally McDifferent
My thinking: If we went 8 captains I'd do 3 offense, 3 defense and 2 ST
Josh Allen
James Cook
Dion Dawkins
Terrell Bernard
Ed Oliver
Christian Benford
Ray Davis

Just horrendous in the biggest of moments. Arch needs a QB guru coach. His mechanics suck. Too many misses on short throws, too much side arm crap while he's standing there flat footed. He has a lot to learn that's for sure.
After all this time,you would think he would get it by now. Two HOF QB uncles, all the hype and what...2 seasons as a backup?
Me thinks he is more hype than substance.
Just now, SirAndrew said:Manning will be interesting to watch this season. You’ve got to wonder if he amounts to everything that’s been predicted. It’s difficult not to have a bias assuming he’ll be great. His physical attributes and playing style look just like every other Manning. It’s challenging to be subjective.
I bet our Defense shuts him down after what I saw today

A lot has been made about the Bills inability to breakthrough to a SB and win at this point and for understandable reason when you have a QB like Allen and the regular success they have had since 2019. I am pretty big into football history post SB 1 on and these three teams are very big comparables to the Bills right down to having a team block their way who was their own dynasty and literally took rings off the board. This is not meant to guarantee a SB for the Bills (I wish) as much as show that sometimes you are on the wrong side of the coin but the success in itself is still impressive and appreciate the wins when they come. My criteria for this were franchises who had long term success (decade), consistently won their division, and had some playoff success outside of their super bowl victory.
Oakland Raiders 1969-1978
Record 103-32-7 W/L/T, 1 Super Bowl, 7 Division titles, 8 playoff appearances in 10 years, 7 AFC title appearances (1 Victory)
John Madden's Raiders were sublime during there time and one of the best teams in the NFL for over a decade. Unfortunately they happened to be in the AFC as the 70's Steelers Dynasty a team they would lose three times in the playoffs including back to back AFC title games in 1974 & 1975 (one of those games were at home). When the Raiders finally broke through in 1976 they demolished the Steelers in the AFC title game at home 24-7 before routing the Vikings in the Super Bowl 32-12. They made the AFC title game against the Broncos the next season before missing the playoffs at 9-7 in 1978 due to tie breaker which was also Madden's last season as a coach. They were truly a great team during that time led by Ken Stabler & George Blanda at QB, HOF WR Fred Bilientnitkoff, HOF OT Art Shell, etc.. They may be the team the most resembles the Bills as they played the Steelers tough and clearly were the 2nd best team in the AFC during the 70's who probably would have been a dynasty had the Steelers not been in their way.
San Francisco 49ers 1990-99
Record 113-47 W/L, 1 Super Bowl, 6 Division titles, 8 playoff appearances in 10 years, 5 NFC title appearances (1 Victory)
This is an interesting submission because the 1980's 49ers were the dynasty and immovable object of the decade under Bill Walsh & Montana. Head coach George Seifert took over in 1989 from Walsh and won the SB with Montana who was also the league MVP. I am viewing this more as the Steve Young 49ers while using the 1990 season as the starting point. Things changed in 1990 as the 49ers were upset at home by the Giants in the NFC title game and Montana was knocked out of the game (and 49ers lineup as the starter for good). From 1991 on Steve Young became the starter and regular season success was just as frequent as it was for the 49ers in the 80s... until the NFC title game. The Cowboys dynasty stood in the way as Dallas took out the 49ers at home in the 93 NFC title and then in Dallas in 1994. The 49ers finally got revenge in 1995 as they loaded up their defense adding Deion Sanders and linebacker Ken Norton (from Dallas) to win the NFC title and Superbowl. But the following three years the Packers led by Brett Farve & Mike Hologram knocked the 49ers out in the divisional round (96 & 97) and the NFC title in 1998 which again the 49ers lost at home. In the 1998-99 season the 49ers went 12-4 and finally beat the Packers in the playoffs only to lose to the Falcons in the divisional round when stud running back Garrison Hearst (rushed for 1510 yards that year) broke his ankle early in the 1st quarter. 1999 would be Steve Young's last season as the 49ers started 3-1 but saw Young get knocked out with a concussion that would end his career and send the 49ers plummeting to a 4-12 record. The 90's 49ers were truly great throughout but failed to capitalize at home in the NFC title going 1-3 in that time (and 1-4 overall). The team was loaded with future HOF's such as Young, Jerry Rice, Charles Haley, Deion Sanders, & Bryant Young etc.. all were on the team for portions or the entire time. There is a saying that iron sharpens the sword the the 49ers of this period faced some truly great teams in Dallas & Green Bay that all went on to win rings and were just a little better a few times than San Fran.
Indianapolis Colts 1999-2010
Record 138-54 W/L, 1 Super Bowl, 8 Division titles, 11 playoff appearances in 12 years, 3 AFC title appearances (2 victories)
The favorite comparison for every team/fanbase with a great quarterback that hasn't broken through and for good reason as the Colts from 99-2010 really were a dominate wagon that consistently came up short come playoff time. Much is made about the Patriots being in the way come playoff time, but the Colts & Patriots played three total times with IND breaking through in 2006 to go to the Super Bowl. The greater issue for the Colts was the offense went quiet way to often with Colts scoring under 20 points in nine of their ten playoff defeats during that time (including Super Bowl XLIV vs New Orleans). The Colts also lost two games in overtime during this run as they couldn't close vs the Dolphins in 99' and Manning didn't even see the ball in their 2008 loss to the Chargers. Additionally the 2005 loss to Pittsburgh was especially painful as the Colts defense forced a fumble of HOF running back Jerome Bettis at the goal line which the Colts returned close to mid field only for kicker Mike Vanderjagt to miss the game tying field goal badly (he was perfect kicking at home all season) preserving a 21-18 Steeler win. Many people bring up that the Colts never had a great defense during that time which is a fair point and only when safety Bob Sanders was healthy were they really a good unit. What is kind of ignored though is the Colts defense in the playoffs were not sieves the way the Bills defense has been vs KC. The Colts defense in six of the ten playoff defeats held their opponent to 21 points or less including the two playoff games they allowed 17 pts heading into OT. Again they were not a top flight unit, but they certainly did a decent job for the league's top offense to have a good chance to do work. In defense of the Colts offense, they ran into many of the leagues top defenses in these losses as the 99 Titans, 03 Pats, 04 Pats, 05 Steelers, & 2010 Jets all fielded top 5 defenses in the NFL in those years. The Colts only having three AFC title appearances during this time is a reflection of a team that probably relied on its offense too much, but an offense that also failed to hold the pace it regularly did during this period. It is forever interesting to me that Manning in just four years in Denver got to the same number of Super Bowls and just one less AFC title game then his entire time in IND (also in their loss to BAL he was tremendous, you can blame the D for that blown AFC title game appearance). Tony Dungy led to the greatest height of these Colts and it is a fair question what would have happened and if Manning even would have left if Dungy was still his coach. Regardless the Manning Colts are the latest great example of a team being blocked out of a dynasty but at least getting their ring to solidify the success they had during this run.
Btw great breakdown
5 hours ago, DrBob806 said:Bernie was amazing until his elbow got destroyed on a blind side blitz. Best deep thrower in the game. The Browns' main problem is they couldn't contain Elway.
Denver got absolutely destroyed in those SBs. Cleveland matched up better with the NFC at that time.
Who would thought Doug Williams would toss 5 TD's in the 2md quarter?
Btw...Elway got his rings when they switched HC's and went with a WCO...
