PromoTheRobot Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) And with a few exceptions (Rich Eisen, Jim Rome) there definitely seems to be an anti-Bills/anti-Josh Allen sentiment...and that's a good thing. The average take today goes this way: Dolphins were injured, Josh was bad, Miami should have won but they blew it. On several shows the Bills/Dolphins game and Buffalo's miracle climb to the 2nd seed wasn't even the lead story. But I'm fine with this. I hope the Bills are lucky and Josh is "bad" all the way to las Vegas. Last year the Bills were the media darlings and we fell short. This year our "window is closed" blah blah. But I always felt like Buffalo succeeds more when they are disrespected. So I say keep it coming.

Steptide Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I'm almost to the point where I don't even care if the bills win the superbowl, I just want them to get there so all this Allen talk stops. It's so annoying. The reason we don't hear this kinda stuff about Mahomes or burrow is because they've gotten their teams to the big game. Get there and all this goes away 6 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get there and all this goes away It won’t go away for Josh unless the Bills win it and he’s the reason they win it. The talking heads have too much on him being the “wrong Josh” until he gets a ring, as unfair as it is. 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many still pushing the lazy Josh turnover narrative citing 2 ints with no context Had respect for those that recognized or corrected that the 2nd was just trying to make something out of nothing on a 4th down after the play broke down, and actually resulted in better field position 2 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that, but most of the panel shows were so focused on Josh's turnovers, which in the big picture didn't hurt the Bills much, they couldn't even appreciate what the Bills accomplished: winning 5 straight and taking the 2-seed.

loveorhatembillsfan4life Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 (edited) Colin Cowherd said something really cool. Something along the lines of when watching Josh He doesn’t even care about the turnovers. He will take the basement because he just loves watching the ceiling.

Donuts and Doritos Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 Talk is cheap. These things are decided on the field. It's put up or shut up time. Go Bills! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BananaB Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 I watched a few of them go on about the first INT, “what the hell was he throwing at?” Not even acknowledging that if Gabe just turned around the ball hits him in the numbers. Then I heard a few more saying the second pick on 3rd and 2 and he shouldn’t be heaving it to the endzone…. No it was on 4th and 2 so it isn’t a bad decision at all. The only bad decision there was not taking his first read. 4 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get so much stuff wrong. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 It’s funny… I used to watch ALL the shows. The last many years… I watch none. Only see snippets here and there. And ya know what… I enjoy the game far more, have no expectations, don’t feel the Bills sucked because they didn’t win by enough, etc. Essentially, I just don’t care what the national narrative is. I watch the games, enjoy the outcome and hope for better. 4 more games! Let’s do this any way we can. Go Bills!!! 5 3 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KDIGGZ Posted January 9 Share Posted January 9 The point of these shows are to be controversial so they get clipped and get views etc. You are better off banging your head against a wall if you need entertainment. Do yourself a favor and find a non-biased podcast/streamer that breaks down the actual plays and learn something about the game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was surprised to see Cowherd's take after the game. I'm not a fan, but if nothing else, he's smart to zig when so many are zagging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only bad decision there was not taking his first read. I always have to laugh at this. Like sure, let's pretend the QB who can put the ball in a one foot window from 30 yards away just missed his target by 5 yards laterally rather than that the WR did something wrong. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
