It would be fun to see RG3 have a great game after all he has been through. Perhaps the system designed for Lamar can elevate him as well.


Except he’s no where near the threat on the ground that Lamar is.

It was not a win and in scenario. We needed either the Jets to lose to the Rams or the Broncos to lose to a Colts team resting their starters plus a Bills win. The Jets did end up losing to the Rams in OT but the Bills game ended before the Jets game went to OT and thus the Jets took some starters out as the game became meaningless for them. 


This is interesting because I had thought thought all they had to do was to beat Pittsburgh.

 

Regardless, for all of the 2017 Bills “backing into the playoffs” bs narratives, give that team credit for winning enough games to make the playoffs.  Many other Bills coaches faltered

Exactly. We still won 9 games during a rebuilding year and that included going to K.C. and beating them.

I can see the Steelers losing to the Ravens backups.  Steelers need to seriously consider firing Mike Tomlin; they're at a point where they need a young QB, and Tomlin isn't the guy to make that decision.  He can't decide between Duck and Rudolph.

I was happy we got in that year because we finally broke the drought and 17 years(and potentially longer) was just way too long to not make it into the postseason but with that said it always felt weird to me because it didn't feel like a true playoff team.  We went 9-7 and didn't even clinch our playoff berth until we received a miracle gift from the Cincy-Baltimore game.  It was also weird because a new regime had just taken over and we knew going forward that team really wasn't going to be our team.  This season truly feels like the end of the drought years.  We have our players that the current regime brought in now and we won at a minimum 10 games(very good chance we finish with 11) and we controlled our own destiny.  I know this is just my own personal perception on things and everybody will feel differently about it but I guess my point is I woudn't call the "2017 Backing into the playoffs" a BS narrative, there was definitey some merit to it.  Nobody can question the Bills as a true playoff team this year and going forward the Drought years are officially a thing of the past now.

I think I'd take Rudolph over Bledsoe. 

 

Bledsoe took New England to a SB in 1996. How many SB's has Rudolph been to?

I On to Houston!

 

BB would never have said that since we don't know who our WC opponent will be yet.
