I tend to agree with this but does that mean Brandon Beane has accumulated such mediocre talent that the Bills would only be good for 5-6 wins?

These teams and coaches know each other so well, neither team can get any traction against the other. It’s like they know each others plays.

The crummy weather isn’t helping Stafford and LA. Boy is he not playing well so far.

As is often the case the Rams O is not as good as they looked last Sunday and the opposing defense was not as bad as they looked. The truth lies somewhere in the middle.

Of course the Rams started out dicey on offense. We see it a lot when a team executes to perfection one week it’s not as perfect the next, especially 4 days later. Still early of course.

Of course, we know the guys can beat KC there. and they would.

I don't get them mixed up but Benford has been an enigma for me. I hardly knew anything about the guy or even what he looked like? He was just a player that lined up out there. So I watched the fluff video that the Bills put out recently with Maddy interviewing on Benford and Rasul. Apparently they are best buds. So now I at least know who the man is and what he sounds like. Bernard on the other hand,,, I've seen his story off the field. Pretty cool.

There’s been some badly missed face mask penalties against QBs in at least 3 primetime games this season. Game altering penalties if they were called like they should have been. So i can see why that specific penalty has been mentioned.

Yep. If Thurman could end his career in Miami, Bruce in Washington, Joe Montana in KC, Peyton in Denver, Brady in Tampa, etc…. there is nothing outlandish about Allen wanting to play out his final couple seasons for his boyhood team (SF) or his current offseason home (LA).

For sure he’s ending his career someday with the 49ers or Rams. Hopefully by then he will have secured Buffalo at least one SB.

If it ended up being Detroit vs KC, yeah i’d root for the Lions.

Bills 27 Lions 26 Late FG wins it for the good guys.

So Josh leads them to 42 points and 6 TDs in the blue pants and they can't stick with it? Hmmmm. Ok i guess the D got shredded in the blue pants so it means change it up.

He's not fast but he was able to roll right unimpeded and release a nice accurate throw whenever he needed to. The Dline or LBs just gave him a free pass. Goff will do the same and he's probably even more accurate. Don't forget the rush defense either. McCaffrey was maybe going to hit 200 yards in that snow game if he didn't get hurt. He was rolling with huge chunks. Then the Bills built a nice lead and SF became one dimensional. The Lions have two excellent backs. Look, the entire D laid an egg on Sunday. I think they show some pride vs Detroit and play better, I really do.

RB's are killing it this season all over the league. WR's are complaining about lack of touches, AJ Brown, Deebo, etc.. I do think Ty has maybe the best hands on the team (other than Shakir),,,,and his north/south running is tremendous.

They have no choice. If the D gets torched all day in Detroit and can't slow them down? then just pack up the season and get ready for the draft.

Just watching some of the morning sports shows, the narrative all week has been "is Sean McDermott and the Bills are wasting Josh Allen's greatness". It's like they are posters here at TBD. I wonder if this stuff gets back to McD?

Ugh, so do we have any comparable uncanny wins?!

He should hire Romo or Brady to be his end of half/game, “time out, clock management and situational awareness” point man. They tend to know everything up in the booth.

Orlovsky made a good point in an interview i saw today. He said the Bills don’t see the Shanahan style offense in the AFC. McVay’s offense uses a lot of the same principles. on a dry indoor field, with all his weapons back, Stafford was able to exploit the D and caused the Bills to have problems. He said Detroit also uses many features of the Shanny style offense. We can expect more problems unless they can fix things this week. Plus, Detroit just has really good offensive players. scheme or not they are hard to defend.

I agree. if someone wants to go around and audit every loss in the NFL this season by 3 points or less, there are a boatload of plays, clock management, timeout usage, personnel issues, etc that can found. A lot right towards the end. I’m not excusing McD, he’s a moron for overseeing that end of game debacle,

400 page bible, what? So do the UNC students there and alums support this, are they excited about Belichek? I have no idea.

Such a great line coming from a highly respected Championship coach. That was cool.

Reid is very calm, cool and collected during those late game clutch moments of handling clock, timeouts, personnel, etc... Same thing with Mahomes. No panic from him and heart rate doesn't appear to be going 150. I get the sense at the end of games the Bills pucker up a bit. Except for Allen. He balls.

I agree. i'm mostly referring to players that have tweaks and are questionable. Pittsburgh is becoming a problem and they need to drop a couple. They have some tough games coming up. I also think there's still a reasonable chance KC loses at Pittsburgh and at Denver. Plus Houston could rise up and play their best game of the season vs KC. You never know, unlike the Chargers, Houston has decent weapons. I'm not totally giving up on the 1 seed. But the Bills have to do their part this Sunday.
