It sure would be nice to finally break the AFC East drought. I am so sick of having to see that graphic of the last time each team won the Division and the fact that the Indianapolis Colts have won the AFC East more recently than us. We need to end that.

It sucks we lost on that Hail Mary because our last drive to get the go-ahead TD before that was a thing of beauty. Offensively we have come so far in a short period of time. Beasely especially had himself another great game today. I still think we can shore up the defense and become more of a complete team in the years to follow. It was a hell of a game and the kind of game we could've only dreamed to be a part of during the Drought years. The players deserve to hold their heads high tomorrow as do Bills fans.

Defense has been pretty bad across the league this year so not too surprising in my opinion. Our defense has certainly kicked it up a few notches though

Biscuit is the #1 choice hands down because that trade catapulted the Bills into a perennial Super Bowl team. I am really loving the Diggs trade though, over time this one could be pretty close. Takeo Spikes, Bryce Paup, Ted Washington, Sam Adams, Jerry Hughes, Mario Williams were all good acquisitions in their own right but none of those moves really transformed the Bills into a contender(I mean Washington and Paup really changed that Bills defense at the time so I get it with those guys)

Ugh this is so so tough! Richard Pryor Robin Williams Eddie Murphy Ron White But Dangerfield, Chris Rock, Chappelle could've easily made my Mt. Rushmore depending on the day you asked me lol. I also love Artie Lange's standup personally. Bernie Mac is super underrated too

My best comparison or least in my eyes would be a hybrid between Big Ben and Favre

For what it's worth many of the players from back then are on record saying they don't think we go back to 4 in a row if they win that first one. Granted I think we would all take a Super Bowl win first and foremost but then the Bills just become another franchise lost in the mix. The 4 years in a row without winning one has certainly added a unique element to both the history of the Buffalo Bills franchise and the region of WNY. For a sports team and region that likes to have the underdog mindset it doesn't get any more underdog than that. I'm hoping we can get the monkey off our backs and go all the way next time. Could possibly be the most satisfying sports championship of all-time or at least right up there and that doesn't happen without the history of 4 in a row.

I vaguely remember this but don't really remember the details now. I have mentioned before on this board that Josh Allen is panning out to be everything JP Losman was advertised as. I remember when Losman was drafted he was billed as having the Jim Kelly, Brett Favre swagger but we certainly never saw that on the field. Allen has it

If Josh carries the Bills to being a perennial powerhouse, going to the playoffs and dare I say it Super Bowls Josh Allen will become a legend in his own right so that won't really matter anymore. As of right now Jim Kelly has earned the pedestal he has been placed on in Bills Country.

This thread has been fantastic. It's cool reading all of the different stories and perspectives of where everybody was at in life the last time the Bills were a true contender. One of the underrated aspects of being a big sports fan is it spans different generations and era's. I'm not a huge fan of modern times right now but hopefully this McDermott/Josh Allen era Bills team is about to bring us some new happy memories

I was playing Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis. Those days really do feel like a lifetime ago now

Yes this was absolutely the signature win so far of the Beane-McDermott era. We have known since last year we can beat bad teams that we should be able to beat. But now we know we can play with the big boy teams in the league.

Once we got up 14-0

Sleeper pick: Andy Cap's Hot Fries(have not had in many years but was always a big fan)

I just got done watching a Documentary series on Netflix called High Score about the rise of video games from the very early years going up to first person shooters like Doom and Wolfenstein. I had forgot about how controversial Mortal Kombat was when that came out. Such different times lol

What was the funny comment from Beane about preparing to face the press after they drafted him?

It's all good. We probably both overreacted a bit, but hey what are messageboards for? Lol. And I can see where your coming from with all the DK fanboys, some football fans are like that in general where they obsess over certain players and it's all the Bills fault for not drafting them! Haha I def didn't mean for my post to be like one of those, was just an impressive hustle play that got me fired up!

Fair enough. I can understand why someone wouldn't view that as the best play of the year...and yeah I was probably exaggerating at that point but I was also surprised to see a negative reaction to that play. I think it was the only negative reaction I've seen towards it all morning. Everybody has been raving about it...which yeah that does get kind've annoying when something gets blown up by media coverage and overdone but I jumped out of my chair last night and screamed out Holy S*** in real time reaction lol...Not sure if you saw where Metcalf lined up in formation on the play but that made it all the more impressive to me. Even though Seattle ended up losing the game, preventing a TD there was a huge momentum swinger.

It's funny how the DK Metcalf play made the #1 play on Sportscenter over both of the big Locket catches(don't get me wrong they were fantastic grabs and they ranked them at #2 and #3 respectively) but if all you got out of that was a guy sprinting then I take it perhaps you never played any Sports in your life? The hustle, the determination and the fact he was able to make the tackle were incredible. The fact that Seattle's defense stood them up and prevented a scoring possession by Arizona made the whole scenario amazing.

10 years ago not only is that not a penalty but that would've been the featured hit on "Jacked Up" tonight on Monday Night Countdown.

Great game last night. I stayed up way past my bedtime and I'm gonna be dragging ass at work today but it was worth it. That DK Metcalf play was the best play I've seen all season.

In today's NFL if you hit a guy too hard it's a penalty

They say you get what you pay for
