wjag Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 (edited) I keep looking for signs that this team will win a Superbowl. Each week they have showed me something... The first one came opening night when they clobbered the Rams. Doesn't matter what the Rams are today, that was a signature win. The second one was just losing a game in Miami where they played with significant injuries and weather and still had a chance to win it at the end. The third one was not playing your best half and then shutting down and closing out the Ravens. Never giving them a chance with the ball to end the game. The fourth one was walloping the Steelers and instituting the mercy rule. And now for me, the fifth one will be going into KC and dismissing them. I could have thrown in avenging the TItans loss, but the Bills had a significant rest period between games. So for me, go to KC, beat them by 1 or more and the résumé will continue to look damn impressive.. Championship caliber teams take on all comers and just win the games. So far, so good. To mimic our President, 🙂 Two Words: "Just Keep Winning!!!" 🙂 Edited October 13, 2022 by wjag 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't make sense. While I'm speculating, I would think the term "limited" has different levels of how much actual work a player does. As to the question of not practicing at all or doing limited work, I have to leave it to the experts in the training room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Him not playing would be a big loss, especially with how the Chiefs OL is run blocking with their guards. The tackles are the weak link there. Our edge guys should feast and be able to be disruptive. Would really prefer if we had a decently healthy Edmunds, Knox and Poyer for this matchup. Chiefs have a lot of weapons to throw to and we need our best out there in coverage. Not expecting Phillips to play, unless this is just a chronic issue with his hamstring and we can use him rotationally on a pitch count. Jones is also giving them a lot from the pass rush standpoint also...he is among the top 5 DTs for pass rush win rate in the NFL surprisingly...the man is doing it all. 2 minutes ago, ColoradoBills said: While I'm speculating, I would think the term "limited" has different levels of how much actual work a player does.

Starting to feel like the Bills are turning into the Patriots from 10 years ago when their entire roster would be on the injury report so you never knew who was actually hurt or not.

How long can someone be "limited"?? IMO, if it's more than a day or two why the hell are they even out there to begin with, because they would likely heal quicker without practicing. WTF is with dudes being "limited" for 2 weeks. It makes no f***ing sense. I can't understand if someone is injured enough to be "limited" for 2 weeks straight why the hell they are even bothering to have them practice? It doesn't make sense. It should not take 2 weeks to come back from a limited diganosis If a player does not take every single rep at practice they are required to be listed as limited 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Turk Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 34 minutes ago, BigAl2526 said: The Bills secondary is getting a bit less banged up. Kaiir Elam got dinged on the foot, but I think he'll be fine. On the other side, I think Benford is expected back. I think that's why Buffalo let Ingram go (resigning him to the PS). I wouldn't be shocked if Buffalo called up Jared Maden. The thing is, Mahomes doesn't have the game breaking receivers he used to have. They're OK, but I don't know that the Bills' DBs can't cover them. Kelce is Mahomes' biggest target now. Agree but Kelce isn't going to burn you for 80 yards. He is going to work the 10-20 yard range, maybe 25 here and there. Mahomes has to orchestrate longer drives now than he did last year.

But I don't trust the Bills on the road in the playoffs. Maybe this team is different but I would rather not find out. You said it yourself. This team is different. I’m not a big believer in year to year W-L stats and streaks. If it mattered, we would’ve smashed and beaten Miami in week 3. Each year is different. Having home field >> not having home field. Just stay relatively healthy, game plan and execute properly in the playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't go as far to say the Bills are the "superior team" this year. I do believe that the Bills are the better team talent wise and on paper. However, I don't think the gap is huge. For example, the difference between Buffalo and Pittsburg was huge for obvious reasons. The KC team led by Mahomes is more than capable of beating the Bills. This game is most likely a dogfight til the end. Most seasonal football fans and experts don't see a blowout for Buffalo. When I say "superior", that doesn't mean I'm expecting a guarantee blowout/beat-down victory. Not by any means. However, I do understand why the Bills are favored in this game, despite it being in Arrowhead. You are correct in saying the gap between most NFL teams is not very large. I believe we are significantly better than Miami, even with the injuries. But 3-4 mistakes on our side was enough to put them ahead in Week 3. If the Bills come out and play their normal game, limit unforced mistakes and keep the turnover battle even... I have no doubts they will win. Possibly even by double-digits. The difference between the defenses is just too lopsided, and I think we can get 2-3 more stops as the game presses on. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Comebackkid Posted October 13, 2022 Share Posted October 13, 2022 Wasn't there a thing last year going along where when 2 teams play in the reg. Season and then meet in the playoffs, it's usually the team that lost the reg season game that wins? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not expecting Phillips to play, unless this is just a chronic issue with his hamstring and we can use him rotationally on a pitch count. I will just say it. DaQuan Jones has been just as important of an addition to the D-Line as Von Miller. You can easily see how the blocking attention that Miller commands is helping the pass rush. But the job Jones is doing at 1-Tech is allowing our linebackers to have career seasons, so far. Considering the Chiefs current (quick-strike, dink/dunk) offense, Jones may actually be more important for us on Sunday. Stopping the run without our linebackers cheating-up will help us keep them in 3rd-long, and allow our coverage to better contain Travis Kelce. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s ridiculous IMO What’s ridiculous is jackwagons like you acting as if you know EXACTLY what the coaches said/called and the various communications that occurred. I “forgot” about that game a long time ago but I can’t stand the know-it-alls — particularly those who have had an axe to grind against McD since the day he was hired. Yes, I remember your ignorant “McEgo” comment before his team ever took the field. 2 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
