The 9 Isles Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Any time I see anything about the Bills or Josh Allen almost immediately the Chiefs and Mahomes are brought into the conversation. I just want my Bills news, I don’t want to continually be reminded of Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs and their Superbowls and how the Bills always lose to them and blah blah blah…… It is so aggravating that not only do they win but whenever my team is spoken about I need to hear all the superlatives about the crown prince and his team. I will be using this board to curate my NFL news this offseason, thank you to all the contributors that wade through the mud of the NFL offseason. I can’t wait until the Bills and JA win one and finally get all these people to STFU.

As bad as the repeated Bills have not been in playoffs in XX years like it was news - audience already knows! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCBills Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I hear ya, but have to admit that any move we make.. my sole focus is “how does this set us up against KC?” No matter what the other AFCE teams do, we’ve been able to win the East. We have two other main contenders in Baltimore and Cincinnati. One we typically beat, the other we struggle against. But nothing else matters until we can get out of the AFC.. and for Buffalo, Cinci, Baltimore.. every move is made with an eye on the Chiefs. It is what it is. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SoonerBillsFan Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 (edited) I hate to wear the tinfoil hat, but I have to wonder if the NFL doesn't want the Bills winning one. They had Brady for years and protected him every chance they get. Mahomes is the new poster boy and no holding calls seem to get called on them in the playoffs. Certainly not inan AFCCG or Superbowl 3 hours ago, SCBills said: I hear ya, but have to admit that any move we make.. my sole focus is “how does this set us up against KC?” No matter what the other AFCE teams do, we’ve been able to win the East.

The issue is not trying to build a team to beat the Chiefs. We need to build a team the Chiefs have to beat.

julian Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I would have no problem with the constant reminders of Bills playoff failures if they reported the reasoning truthfully, but they do not. It feels like the Bills are the only team fuc*ing things up every season if you listen to the media, the rest of the teams who either don’t make the playoffs, don’t win their division or lose in the playoffs are just given a free reset by the media and treated as though their failures didn’t happen or don’t matter. If you didn’t actually watch the league and just watched the media coverage, you’d come away thinking the Bills are a mediocre loser franchise. I’m guessing the media outlets and pundits are aware the mafia engagement rises with negativity and the rest of the leagues fan bases love to hear how this dominant franchise with it’s elite QB haven’t won anything and most likely won’t in the future, it’s a win win for the media.

(carve out for Rich Eisen, he always has Buffalo’s back) There's just no quality mass-market coverage of the NFL in the off-season, because there's really no large market for quality. All of the national media outlets can get away with all the generalities, platitudes, same old stuff. Audiences for some reason tune in for that stuff, and they really don't want to hear the in-depth stuff, which is just too detailed. Take the Bills, for example. Since Beane went to work a few days ago, there's a lot to say about the Bills, but only people like us want to hear it. It's detailed, complicated, and not easy to explain in a sound bite. The general tv market isn't interested in a one-time half hour show about what's going on with the Bills salary cap. All that market wants to know about the Bills is Josh Allen, salary cap hell, the window, and maybe something about a wide receiver. And, as interested as I am in the Bills, I'm certainly not interested in 31 half-hour shows about the other teams. The result is that there's nothing out there to look at, other than the people who are dedicated to covering the Bills. Chris Brown, Eric Wood, Steve Tasker, Cover One, a half-dozen journalists, either print, online, or podcasts. Other than those folks, we know more here than the national media. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least the Chiefs will finally be challenged in the AFCW with Harbaugh's Chargers. For a while now the Chiefs have run that the division the same way the Pats did the AFCE for a long time. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gregg Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 Just now, SoonerBillsFan said: If I remember correctly, he got hurt moving to his right. The Bills never touched him on that play. He started to decline his last year with GB so if he continues to decline and hurt the Jets then I am all for it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
90sBills Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 KC is back to back champs. Of course any NFL talk during the offseason will pivot to them. That’s the spoils of winning Superbowls. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweats Posted March 8 Share Posted March 8 I hate listening to the media explain what the Bills need to do to beat KC........they know there's like 30 other teams in the league, right? I really don't care what we need to do to beat KC. I really only care about what we need to do to beat everybody and hoist that Lombardi at the end of the season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well since KC has beaten every team that the Bills have trotted out there in the playoffs I’d say the issue really is trying to build a team to beat the Chiefs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
