whatdrought Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 It’s really unprecedented times right now... Any team with a top 3 QB is in the running and we definitely have that. As Bills fans we’re just programmed to wait for the catch. Could this be the year we don’t hit it? 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I lurk on one of the Pats boards. Don't ask me why; it's a weird thing. But the near constant mantra since we started hot is "the Bills have started hot before - they always unravel." I mean, some truth - but that was with a completely different team, coach, GM, owner, QB...the works. This is the same team in name only. But still....it worries me.

SlimShady'sSpaceForce Posted October 10, 2020 Author Share Posted October 10, 2020 I’m just amazed at Mr Inaccurate's perfect 158.3 passer rating on deep ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed_Formerly_of_Roch Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 The article call L Jackson the top dual threat QB in the league. Granted it's only 4 weeks, but I would think you could easily argue that role as #1 should be Allen as Jackson doesn't have close to the arm of Allen. If Allen needs to, he can run almost as well as Jackson. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah John Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 The argument in favor of the Bills rests on the faulty assumption that their defense is as good as it was the past couple of years. For some reason (no Star?) it just isn't as good this year. I think the improvement in the Bills offense is much greater than the problems in their defense, so overall they're a much better team, but in order to take down the Chiefs, the Bills will need to slow down Mahomes, and only Belichick seems to be able to do that. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's wishful thinking by Patriot fans I think the danger is more related to injuries to a few key players, than to the team losing its focus. Unraveling is unlikely. Getting crippled by injury or covid is always a possibility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am also concerned about the defense. The lack of depth at CB and LB is becoming alarming to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ethan in Cleveland Posted October 10, 2020 Share Posted October 10, 2020 In the following order - Bills, Steelers, Pats, Colts I know folks on here don't want to read this, but Pats are still a dangerous team. They could have easily beaten the Seahawks and hung with KC for a while with terrible back-up QB play. They will still be a tough out for Buffalo if for nothing else the mental side of it - think Bulls Pistons late 80's. I don't see Titans, Browns, or Ravens being able to beat KC in the playoffs. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allen is becoming a star, My good neighbor and big Steeler fan commented to me yesterday on how good Buffalo looked close to the lines of being the best team in football. He also mentioned without the Bills D playing like it did last season. Coming from a Steeler fan with big Ben back and someone accustomed to seeing great football. It was a huge compliment from an outsider looking in. Steeler fans in my area (Corry, Pa) are forced to watch all Bills away games so he see's allot of what we see.

If our D can get anywhere close to where it was last year we will prove to be the undoubted super bowl favorites come December. 🤞🏾 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
