Yeah it was a little pollyanna-ish but he's not totally wrong. Weird vibes in Buffalo sometimes. When you can't knock the team, some people need to knock posters. I think there are just some extremely shell-shocked individuals on this board. Not trolls necessarily, but some that seem so disillusioned from years of poor play that all they can now manage is a grunt and slight headshake of approval even during the best of times. It can be annoying but maybe they'll burst into uncontrollable sobbing or something if the Bills finally win a ring.

dgrochester55 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Maybe not the hottest team yet, but they have played quality football again since the second half of the Tampa game. I am still worried about the run defense when it comes to the playoffs, but have more hope that they can stay hot and make a run then I did a few weeks ago. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And right after an enormously cathartic division win against Belichick and the Pats. It's like people want to stop others from visualizing too much success.

Ross Murdock Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Josh Allen has been playing out of his mind, an absolute league superstar, but football is the ultimate team sport, and one man can't carry an NFL team through the playoff's. In the end, the Bills will pay for not improving their O-Line or the running game in the off season. Plus they have too many key players who prefer catching Covid to actually playing football. If Beans does his job in the off-season, and gets rid of the dead-wood, and malcontents, next year will be their year. That said, they could win a home playoff game before exiting, which wouldn't be a bad season all things considered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chandler#81 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 Miami has taken up permanent residence under Buffalo’s broom. Their most ardent fans have drooling issues over Josh Allen. Gonna be this way for 15 years. 🤷♂️ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norcalbillsfan Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 KC can still beat anyone at anytime. Dolphins are gaining popularity after their defense once again demolished an offense tonight. But I'm sorry tua just doesn't scare me yet. Maybe down the road, but he still makes really bad mistakes and hinders his team alot. And the Dolphins don't have a Henry or Taylor running game so the qb can do minimal and beat elite teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoPoy88 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 2 hours ago, Hermes said: I get it and admittedly the Bills probably aren't the hottest team in the league. If I had to name one, it would probably be KC, Colts, Rams, or GB. There's still two weeks to go and the Bills could turn it on and look like world beaters, or worse, they could lose out and squeak into the postseason or miss it all together. While looking at the Bills objectively I'd prefer to stand on the positive side of things and make points to that regard. It's like you said all teams have flaws and to cast them aside because they afflict your favorite team is to wear the proverbial rose colored glasses. so what’s with your title then, since you just directly contradicted it.

HappyDays Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 There's a lot of hot teams in the NFL right now. The playoffs are going to be a total wildcard for both conferences, moreso in the AFC where I think the difference between the 7 seed and the 1 seed will be minimal. I don't see any overwhelming favorites in either conference. The Bills are certainly one of the 10 most likely teams to reach the Super Bowl but I can't even begin to rank those 10 teams in order of probability. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's funny that everyone talks about the Bills lack of balance on offense yet the Dolphins passing attack isn't anything to write home about.

BigAl2526 Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 The Bills have now won two straight and have a good chance to close out the season with two more wins. That said there are some teams that scare me in the playoffs, particularly with the bills' issues at cornerback and in run defense. Kansas City has gotten on track and I don't see how the Bills are going to stop Mahomes from passing for 350 yards with Tre White on the shelf. KC also has a defensive line that is healthy and talented. I think Indianapolis would cause problems again for Buffalo as I don't think Buffalo has an answer for Jonathon Tayor. I admit, however, that I did not see Buffalo's easy victory over New England in Foxborough in the cards either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillsFanSD Posted December 28, 2021 Share Posted December 28, 2021 I give the Dolphins full credit for winning 7 straight games. That's hard to do in the NFL, regardless of who you're playing. But let's be real here. Nobody really thinks that Miami is any threat to make noise in the playoffs, right? I mean, really now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
