Quote Keim and all Cardinals fans have to be thrilled. They wound up with my favorite quarterback in this class, and it didn't cost much to get him.

I know just win, but if there is a game the Bills need a convincing win it is versus Cincy tomorrow. Otherwise we'll be hearing about January 2nd. But I'm a Bills fan.🤣 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But no one should be happier than Maccagnan, and no fanbase should be more thrilled than the always-hopeful supporters of Gang Green. When #ScamforSam first caught fire more than a year ago, Jets fans imagined going 2-14 in 2017, grabbing the No. 1 overall pick and ending up with Darnold. The path to landing him wound up being far different, including a costly and risky trade by Maccagnan with the Colts to move into the third overall slot. But the ends justify the means. The Christian Hackenberg error will be forgotten quickly if Darnold, the top quarterback on many draft boards, turns into the player many predict. Darnold is the third-youngest quarterback drafted in the first round since the 1970 AFL-NFL merger and has the temperament and skill set to survive in New York. This was the type of trade and pick by Maccagnan, helped out by a little luck, that could pay for a new mortgage. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The talk that matters will be on the field. Of course, the point is that it has been predominantly one-sided while the Bills are 5.5 point favourites, even those picking the Bills it is always with trepidation and at most a 3 point win. Was just an observation and how I've felt listening reading and watching this week. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fairer towards Josh on the NFL website, though backs the Bengals to win... "These could be the NFL's two best teams -- with full health. But that's not the status quo. Cincinnati lost 3/5 of its offensive line over the past month, while Buffalo's pass rush hasn't been nearly as fearsome without Von Miller. Even if the Bills sit in a two-deep safety shell all game like the Ravens did last week in Cincy, they will do so without Micah Hyde. No matter how Buffalo lines up, Joe Burrow needs to take more chances on the outside against the Bills' cornerbacks. The Bengals' injuries make this a tougher upset to call, but Cincinnati's a more complete team overall. The Bills' lack of receiver depth forces Josh Allen to do too much, and the Bengals -- strong at all three levels of defense -- have played better football over the last two months." https://www.nfl.com/news/nfl-divisional-round-game-picks-2022-nfl-season 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It seems though with all the negativity surrounding an 8 game winning streak that is no longer the case.😉😝😆 But listening to my favourite podcast and seeing 1-2 articles I need to stop as my blood is boiling listening to all the pro Burrow & Cincy talk and how down some are about Allen's erratic play and so much put on the Dolphins game. Of course Burrow's #'s the last two weeks aren't discussed & the pick 6 vs. NE in a game they could've lost too. Add to that, many are gushing over Cincy and the first 10 minutes January 2 (now if Buff scored a TD and not a fg things may have been a little different). Used to spend all Sunday immersed in pre-games and other things, but haven't the last decade. Interesting this weekend, that not just the Buffalo/Cincy game, but the other three too all being talked about using "Recency Bias". Dallas (and Dak) looked great against a lousy fraud in TB. The Giants moved up and down against one of the worst "D's" in football and a team everyone was predicting the clock would strike midnight soon. Finally look at the upstart Jags and what they did. Sunday 3:00 can't come soon enough to get it started (and then get it over with). Joe Cool is the darling of these knee jerk goof balls. The fact he beat KC twice doesn’t hurt either. Bottom line, we got him in our place where it’s time to end there season and make a statement that will stick. Let’s let this competition get sorted out on the field. The 12th man must make their imprint on the game. Let’s see what a real Homefield Advantage looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buffalo ill Posted January 22, 2023 Share Posted January 22, 2023 The people who are dumb enough to not only give these clowns clicks but also get emotionally distraught from their opinions make me think of the crying "leave Brittney Spears alone" kid who went viral.
