cool i had the Eagles +1

Panthers Bills Saints Titans Browns Falcons Bucs Thats the list of murderers row teams that NE has beaten on their streak. I give them credit for winning at Tampa off the Bucs bye week. That was well earned. I don’t think they are ready to beat the other experienced AFC teams in playoffs. I think they’d lose to any of them.

Brutally dull game so far. But i guess these defenses are not who you want to play in January. They are tough.

Since i have a wager on the Eagles that punch out was a gut punch.

The guys on WGR and Sal were discussing this earlier. They think behind closed doors the Bills are purposely playing the long game with Allen as McBeane often mentions the importance of keeping Josh healthy. They imply that they are going through the season, play him conservative, stay healthy. Of course you actually have to WIN games too and even assuming they get in, the road games will be brutal

I'd say they did it for Chiefs intel, lol. But that game is over. Last i checked he was returning kicks right? So it's just an admission they need to turn over every rock to try and juice up the passing game.

Yep. 50/50 WRs are nearing extinction. That skill is necessary for aging vets like a Mike Evans or Keenan Allen.. guys that have proven themselves to be great receivers over the years and now late into their careers. Keon should be getting F**king open!!!!

He could have stayed at the spot and picked Worthy, or selected Ladd with that first pick in round 2. But he took the worst of the three. Great job Beane.

I actually think the Bills offense will improve with Keon off the field. Samuel needs more targets too. People get on his case but he is a professional WR and Josh trusts him. He did well in the playoffs last season. Some big catches.

I agree with you. A few weeks ago I had this game a loss. But that was before the humiliation in Miami yesterday. Had they comfortably beaten the fins, I think this game would have been tricky. Now i believe the Bills will be re-focused, have a great week of practice and preparation. They play their best when media and fans are all over them. This should be a victory. Now with all that being said...if the Bills do lose this game, we'll know the season is likely cooked.

The black and gold fans got the same treatment as all those Bills fans at Miami. They traveled to watch their beloved team get humiliated. Sofi and Allegiant stadium in Las Vegas have turned into defacto home games for the opponents. I think the Rams might hold their own for their home games.

It's just a season where Allen's elite play can no longer bail out the defense. I mean when they get down 13-0 to Miami and 14-0 to Atlanta it's over. We are a long way from those games last season like vs San Fran, Rams, Detroit, etc.. By the way, did anyone notice the Saints won at Carolina yesterday? it devalues the Bills win there. The Saints outgained Carolina 388 to 175, and went 8 for 17 on third downs. Plus they played the better Carolina QB.

The Home games: Tampa, Cinci, Philly and NYJ. Buffalo needs to win 3 of these. If they beat Tampa they can afford the Eagles loss. If they lose to Tampa they better win the remaining three games. The Road games: Houston, Pitt, NE and Cleveland. I think Buffalo loses a minimum of 2. I actually think they will beat New England simply because of the extra juice they will have to avenge the earlier loss. They will play well in that game. I think they lose at Texans and Steelers. Texans defense will look to rough up Allen. Steelers will just be a game we can't run effectively.

Hey, i was there with my son. Not the worst game I've seen in person, but certainly the worst playoff game given the stakes. The game was bad enough, the long drive home in traffic, darkness, snow falling and poor road conditions was just the most depressing thing ever. My son and I barely spoke a word to each other.

People snicker at it, but Curtis Samuel is the only other WR that Josh trusts, he had some huge catches in the playoffs last season.

Miami fired the GM and kept the coach (for now). Giants fired the coach and kept the GM. I think if things continue to go downhill here, Pegula would fire the coach first and keep the GM for continuity of staff. It's just easier to find a new head coach and assistants rather than having to backfill so many positions behind the scenes concerning a GM.

Solve the problem McDipsh*t! Stop with the hand wringing and coach speak. We have the MVP quarterback. They are paying professional receivers here. Use them, scheme them up to get open. Have Allen throw quicker. Do whatever but fix it!

I've been to several road games. I feel like if the Bills trounced Miami, all these negatives would have been brushed under the rug as no big deal.

Was rooting for this guy but now it's looking like just another poor pick. I feel bad. He cried on his draft call from the team. I was rooting for him.

Then McD needs to take the next train out of town. Clearly from his presser yesterday McD has no answers. He's in a problem solving business and he has no answers. Imagine that. He sucks!

They are saying on TV the Miami Dolphins will look into him for their new head coach after the season. The Bills need to jump in front of them.

This owner has made such catastrophic mistakes with the Sabres it will carry over negatively to the Bills. He's the last owner in the NFL who will fire a coach and/or GM who has overseen this many years of playoffs.

Yeah, agree. Josh credits Daboll for making him the NFL QB he is. Allen deserves an offensive head coach as we start the new chapter in the new stadium, especially one he trusts so much. McDermott's expiration date has long passed, much like the Chobani yogurts in my fridge.

Fire Brady immediately, like 5 minutes ago...and bring Dabs back to be the OC. He will get Josh back on track.

People here said i was a moron for suggesting that in late September. Enjoy the thread.
