I'm not sure why so many people think Pittsburgh and Buffalo are vastly different (from a city standpoint). Weather wise it snows more in Buffalo but other than that it's pretty similar. Plus I always hated the hilly terrain in Pittsburgh.

Kinkhabwala:  "From what I was told a little bit ago, the Steelers have said they are accepting bids up until Friday morning, that as Ian has said, they're closing in. I was told earlier today that the Bills seemingly had the best offer but that the Steelers were going to keep their word, that they are accepting bids until tomorrow morning."

AB options as Twitter ridiculously overreacts and tries to tell us why AB going to Buffalo will lead to him retiring.....ok let's look at the other options if true:

 

1.  After telling us he needed to be the man in Pittsburgh, he's going to go to the Packers and share targets with Adams.....after getting salty JuJu became such a go to guy for Ben.  Plus, Brown doesnt help their defense and that they might be the 3rd best team in that division.  

 

2.  The Raiders.  Lol ok Derek Carr has been a tire fire and so is the state of the team.  Worst team in the West.

 

3.  The Titans.  Mariota is terrible.  /story.  

 

4.  Redskins.  Ok Case Keenum here you go.  Good luck guys.  

 

5.  49ers.  Dont appear interested likely cap issues

 

6.  Jets.  Possible but probably dont or cant offer what we can.  

 

 

Any place he ended up will be seen as laughable by the low info media and fans.  The Bills make the most sense for so many reasons.  A focused AB with an improved oline and we're a playoff team.  

 

Whether the Bills bias allows you to admit it or not, Mariota, Keenum, and Carr have all proven and shown more in this league than Josh Allen. Hell, they all showed more in college too. We're hoping Josh Allen becomes something he's never been, while the others have all shown at one point or another how good they can be.

Why would you dislike acquiring a HOF WR still in the prime of his career?

 

Bills not ready to compete. I rather build up young core around Allen. Now you got Allen having to deal with a WR who is a headcase. It puts undue pressure on your franchise QB. I think the Bills end up regretting this move if it goes through and that is not knowing what the compensation will be and the contract they need to give for him to even show up in Buffalo.

Dont let his dumb commentary spoil the good name of Mary Jane.  

 

She’s a miracle, but she can’t fix trolls.

 

I have no problem with it at all as it does have many positives. But every single one of his posts also shows the negative effects it can have, lol.

Rappaport is NFL Networks top insider doubt he puts this out there without it being pretty much done if this was Lacanfora or Espcially Schefter  I could pretty write it off as fake news  and ready for the Mega contract we give Funchess 

 

Schefter is one of the best at breaking news.

whether there is truth to this or not, you have to commend the Bills for trying a move like this. Regardless of AB's baggage, he's an elite player that the Bills have too often in the past not gone after. So good for them. Please don't @ me about his age either, he hasn't shown any real drop off yet.

The real question is why didn't we grab Keenum for the sweet deal the Redskins got him for?

Swapping late round picks & splitting that yearly contract with the Broncos? That's no risk, all upside for someone with that experience.

Because Schurmur Theilin and Diggs dont come with him.

 

He's trash.  Look what a supporting cast did for him.  And when he "only" had Sanders and DT.  Train wreck.

 

Makes me giddy about what one will do for Allen.
