So the top 2 teams both need QB's so likely neither will trade out. If the 2 QB's are taken with the top 2 picks, based on history at least one of them if not both will flame out.

1:00 Sunday

They're releasing next weeks schedule after the commercial

Or he was told before the game he was being let go, so tried like hell to win. Sometimes coaches are told prior?? You'd think in this situation WRT the #1 pick they wouldn't do that, but never know. The fact that he was fired 90 minutes after the game seems Kraft had decided prior to the game.

So why not instead go after Trey Hendrickson who Bengals are rumors to cut? He's one year older, but likely free for the picking. Yeah but didn't have free agency or a cap back then so was much easier to hold a team together. Also more rounds to the draft. Wouldn't give up 2 firsts for him, but while that may be what Browns want, not so sure they'll get that either.

Agree as Monday will likely be the 4-5 NFC game to give whoever loses Sunday night more time since they are playing the late game.

I read this article yesterday too and was also going to quote this. He makes sound arguments for and against everyone so do tend to agree with his choices, Gouraige and Cine. I think a good reason White was elevated to the 53 was to make him active on Sunday so Mitch doesn't play that much, maybe 1st half, to prevent injury there to him and if by some chance he did get hurt, can then bring White in rather than Allen

If you go just off stats, Jackson should be the winner, but like last year when Jackson won it, he didn't have the best stats, but still won. Allen has more huge splash plays and off the chart games, plus won more games. Jackson also lost to Cleveland and Raiders, but soundly beat Allen. But even there, could argue was more Henry beat the Bills. There's also the argument to be made that Jackson won 3 including last year, so some votors will go with Allen for that very reason. Overall think Allen will win it give him around a 70% chance to win it.

Way to get around having him be available to play this Sunday as likely wouldn't have called him up from PS

Even if Miller did play, likely Groot, Oliver and maybe AJ will sit, so Miller would probably be facing double teams all day.

Agree, think the Texans and Tampa are the teams likely will lose their wildcard game, they may even be the one home team underdog. NFC has a powerhouse (Vikes or Lions) going to Tampa. AFC just has more a reeling division winner in Texans

So there are 5 RT in the AFC better than Brown, but yet only 3 safety's better than Hamlin??

Yeah kind of thinking the same. Yes they play them well, though not very well 2 weeks ago. But think if I were them, I'd rather face the Texans. Texans like the Steelers have been tailing off as the season is ending while the Ravens are playing much better after a slow start.

Agree, but do think Steelers will want to win game to avoid Ravens.

Is Doyle still actually on the team?? LOL Thought he was let go with an injury settlement or something?? I noticed it on Allens X-Mas gift, first time I'd seen his name mentioned in months. I do think Van Pran Granger , Gouraige (sp?), VanDemark, and Anderson are all very good backups too. That was one of the big concerns if any of the starters got hurt, our backups basically were all inexperienced. At this point all have a year under their belt and cheap contracts. Beane could consider trading one of them as barring injury can't see any of them getting on the field over the life of their rookie contract.

Just read this weeks NFL ranking in the Athletic and they have the Bills first with Vikes @2, KC-3 and Lions 4. All 3 teams behind Bills have better records!! Deserved or not, don't see that very often. That has got to annoy some fan bases. If it was the opposite way with Bills, people here would be going nuts!

Yes but too expensive to get rid of for 2025.

But at what position?? Free or Strong?? IMO his hard hitting suits him better for SS, but have Rapp there too. Then would still need a FS unless they keep Hamlin there, don't think Rapp could play FS. Could Elam play FS, think he has the speed. Or sign a free agent FS and trade Rapp??

The rebuttal to that is 11-5 and took until week 17 to move into first place and mainly due to a late season collapse by Steelers. Until around 3 weeks ago, the Steelers were in a pretty good position to get the 2 seed over Buffalo. Could give them a good shot and say, "yeah but it's rare that a running back wins the MVP!"

You left out one other thing up for grabs. If Pitt loses and Changers win, Chargers move up to 5 seed and go to Houston and Pitt drops to 6th and plays Ravens, so I'd imagine Steelers are motivated to win Saturday too Denver also could be tied with Steelers, not sure who wins tiebreaker there or could Steelers drop to 7th? Don't think so, think the lowest Steelers can go is 6th??

Yes the offense has been good, but not the defense and that was biggest reason many didn't think the team would do that well this year with all the changes in personal mainly on the defensive side. Fire McD and highly likely the team will be worse off

Reading the column about Shavers TD and 13 players scored TD's and comment from Allen "We’ve got another week to try to get one more" makes me think they will try and get someone else. But who is left other than a lineman?? So could see if they get close to goal line, trying some pass to lineman?? The only other guys left is Reggie Gilliam and Davidson, but believe he's used up his 3 callups? I suppose there's always Trubisky

It would be interesting to check how many of these posts only predicted 7 to 9 wins, but now saying if Bills don't win SB, they should fire McD.

You could be pretty darn close

Likely has some internal meaning to them. At least I hope it does.
