  1. The coaches, players, GM,…everyone in that organization waited an entire year to right the wrong of 13 seconds.,,,and that’s the game they came out with?!? it’s remarkable really. Just zero intensity and completely dominated from the very first snap until the end. No wonder Diggs was so pissed. They aren’t allowed a bad day in that game. Just glad they didn’t make the Super Bowl only to lay that egg. That would’ve been way worse.
  2. I'm sick of Frazier... and Dorsey pissed me off at times.. but I can't deny these guys were 13-3, 14-3 before getting rolled by Cincinnati. SO if they can learn and make changes for the positive, and Bean can work some magic in the draft and F/A, let's give them one more season to right these wrongs. I think this Domination will stick with them and be a huge motivator.
  3. Brandt was at the game Sunday and came on the jumbotron live, in stadium to hype up the crowd. I can't remember what the score was but the game felt out of hand at that point... and he's yelling "mount up mafia!". Almost no one was responding.. it was cringeworthy. I'm thinking dude, just shut it, we're getting dominated here and no one was in the mood to "Mount up".
  4. I heard an interesting stat that no coach/QB combo has ever won a Super Bowl beyond the first 5 years of their partnership. So if McDermott/Allen win the Super Bowl in the coming year(s) they would be the first ever to do it. The only other active combo like that is Harbaugh/Lamar...and they could be done.
  5. The beat down on Sunday gave me pause to think more about the cancelled MNF game. It was widely reported in the week that followed that it was A) difficult to find a slot to complete the MNF game and B) the Bills preference was to put that game behind them, and move forward....Adam Shefter said that team/league officials felt there was "bad mojo" associated with that game. So the league was going to lean in whatever direction the Bills wanted to go. Obviously The Bills wanted to leave the MNF game behind. Was that the start of the team moving from deep emotional concern for a teammate to maybe football isn't all that important? I don't know. Part of me thinks that if they completed that MNF game in "week 19" it could have resulted in the Bills getting blown out. In which case they would have played the Divisional (if they made it in Cincy)..and maybe would have learned better what it took to beat the Bengals.
  6. The Bills need to start studying the Chiefs and definitely the Bengals on offense. They'll gladly take the underneath stuff and certainly try to run the ball. They'll take a shot once in a while down the field but when it's 3rd and 2...i don't see them consistently throwing 25 yard sideline passes to well covered receivers...they just try to convert the 3rd down. I dunno, maybe Allen isn't processing the field as quickly as Burrow or Mahomes, to get off an accurate short pass... I'm not sure what the problem is?
  7. It's disgraceful really. I came up for the game Sat night, spoke to some friends and family.. Mentioned how i didn't feel any juice from the team this past week and hoped the players are as fired up as the fans are. It was weird. I didn't feel it. The few clips i saw were a few players goofing around at practice with some music on in the background. It just baffles me about they don't realize how rare these moments are to be in position to win a Super Bowl. Win a damn home game.
  8. I said it last year after our KC meltdown and I'll say it again. As a Buffalo comparison, Allen reminds me of Dominik Hasek. A really unique, superb, special player. But even he won't be able to overcome how difficult it is to win a Championship for Buffalo. Once Allen moves on to his home state San Francisco 49ers in 2027 or beyond, he will win his Super Bowl, much like Hasek finally won when he moved on to Detroit...teams with Championship legacy. Sorry to be a downer, it is what it is.
  9. I didn't bother to look up the stats, but I've liked the Bills road games better than home this year and maybe even last year. It feels like the D are more dialed in on the road and the O plays a more ball control style. Again, I have no stats to back that up but it just felt that way over the past couple years.
  10. I see them making it but maybe Miami or the Jets win the division and Buffalo gets the 6 or 7 seed. The national media will be off the Bills bandwagon, and without the pressure of being Super Bowl favorites, the Bills will finally make their run and surprise people.
  11. This is just another example of why I don't believe in "Teams of Destiny" or good karma/bad karma, uniform superstitions, etc.. It's all nonsense when it comes to sports. There are many examples of A-holes like this guy winning Championships or teams that don't deserve to win, WIN it ALL.
  12. It just makes players or fans feel better to say stuff like they ran out of gas. It sounds better than we played hard but they are better and kicked our a$$. I’ll say the same thing i’ve said since Super Bowl 28 ended. I don’t want to see the Bills back in the SB until they are darn sure to win it. Or as close as you can be to a sure thing. Clearly in this playoffs they were nowhere near as good as we thought early on. This club was not capable of winning the big game.
  13. As is the case with most NFL matchups that are one sided, Cincinnati isn’t as great as they looked on Sunday and Buffalo isn’t as awful. I expect KC with a hobbled Mahomes to play them much closer but the Bengals are a tough out for sure. And they make so few mistakes, it’s annoying lol.
  14. That was such an embarrassing and unprepared effort yesterday from so many coaches and players. Diggs should be pissed. It’s like the guys practiced this week for a preseason game. What did they even do all week…goof around in practice and give hugs to Hamlin? This team needs to hire some assassins for next season. Screw the culture.
  15. Cincy threw short passes to wide open guys and our footing was awful, then they pounded the run. Meanwhile Buffalo is throwing deep sideline passes in the snowfall with probably 5% chance to be completed. Footing was bad but a coaching and scheme mismatch was worse.
  16. It’s easy to say that about Cincinnati but let’s face it, this is the NFL, rarely do things go according to plan, or what’s on paper. I think Baltimore, Pittsburgh and Cleveland will be aiming their guns squarely at the Bengals and it won’t be easy. What KC has done in recent years with their string of AFC Championship games is remarkable.
  17. If the Bills ever do win it, it will likely be a season we don’t really expect it. They won’t win the division but will get in as a wild card, then go on a surprise run. I’ve seen it happen with my favorite team in another sport. Knocked at the door for a few years as a favorite, failed, then won it when least expected.
  18. I felt it man. Drove hundreds of miles to be at the game. I felt and heard no intensity all week. It was palpable. Just goodbyes, interviews and Good feels because Hamlin was in the building. I swear, the fans care more. Meanwhile Joe says the Super Bowl window is open as long as he’s playing…and the entire Bengals were pissed and felt disrespected.
  19. Such bad mojo all week with fans openly talking and planning trips to Atlanta. I know a few people that booked hotels around Phoenix. Coach interviewing, Poyer was blatantly saying goodbye to Buffalo even before the Bengals game. As much as i love Hamlin recovering i thought it was a distraction for him to be in the building all week. Don’t get me wrong it’s fine, I’m happy for him but the guys played like this was a preseason game.
  20. Ideally the Chiefs will get their revenge and beat the Bengals and crush Cincinnati fans. Then the NFC team will crush KC. that would be good with me.
  21. Agreed. The home uniform should always be Blue over white. These players need to stop being superstitious idiots. Play better and stop with the ugly blue track suits.
  22. Sounds like Diggs has had it up to here with the playoff failures and meltdowns. Who knows what his future will be with this team. He wants to win a Championship now. His prime years are getting used up.
  23. The Bills D has been fools gold for a while. Made their reputation last year against lousy teams. Their secret to success is allowing the short stuff, long drives, then bailing themselves out by forcing a turnover or 4th down stop or limiting to a FG. Yesterday they couldn’t even stop 3rd downs.
  24. I can’t say i disagree with hammering the offense… as all week i said the Bills would likely need 34 to win. So really, the D gave up what i and many others thought they would. They were pathetic but still, the offense didn’t do anything whatsoever to help win that game. Just no-shows. Terrible.
