Hate to say this … but the Pats are effing good

[Metal Man]

I see lots of people keep pointing to the last place schedule but I'm not sure how much that factors in seeing it is only 3 games.

 

Right now they are 1-1 in those games with the NYG still to go while Buffalo is 1-0 with Houston and Philly still to go so worst case scenario it is only a 1 win advantage for the Pats***. 

 

Problem right now is Buffalo lost to them head to head, lost to a team that they beat in Atlanta, and will lose to another team they beat in Tampa if Buffalo can't get it together and take care of business this weekend.

 

Now if the Bills lose the division by 1 game and those 3 games were the difference then maybe there is an argument for the weak schedule thing but as of right now that seems a little overblown to me.

Id also say it is very tough to win all the 'easy' games.  That in of itself is a mark of an actually good team.

What's he doing better than Maye this year?

I was speaking overall. I have no clue what their stats are, but overall, Allen has proven himself. Hell he won the MVP last year and know your acting like he is a scrub. 🙄

Um ok. Saying another QB is outplaying Allen this year absolutely doesn't mean Allen is a "scrub". And just because he won the MVP last year doesn't mean he can't play poorly or even below his own standards. Weird that I'd even need to point that out.

A little over dramatic? No one is in a full on panic over a football game. lol

Have you read this board? Did you read the BN article linked on the front page? Everyone had declared that the Bills are no longer Super Bowl contenders after one football game. It was that bad. You have posters on this board in another thread predicting an 8-9 final record. If you are not panicking, then you are in the vast minority of Bills fans. Most of us see the start of another decades-long Pats dynasty. They have the QB, the cap space, the coaching, and an owner who is content with nothing less than winning the Super Bowl every year. We have an aging QB who seems disinterested (I'm more than just a football player), a mediocre coach, no cap space, and an owner who wants to sell tickets above all else. You also have the spector of losing multiple home games to Toronto. So yeah, this is a 5-alarm fire.

 

Yeah, it's just football. I get that. But the Bills are a big part of my life, and they are the only attachment that I have left to my hometown. So they mean a lot to me and seeing the window slam shut, probably for the rest of my life (I'm 51 and won't survive another drought) is painful. The word disappointment doesn't even begin to describe it. And no one who could do something seems to care. The owner is only concerned with selling PSL to the 6 homes games he'll play in his new stadium that we paid for and the GM is more concerned with never falling below .500 than winning a SB. And no one, from the owner down to the players, understands how much it hurts all of us to see that team rise. I f it were the Jets of Fins, I wouldn't care. But the Pats? Close your eyes and picture Diggs holding the Lombardi above his head this February. That's not a fantasy, it's a preview because they are BY FAR the best team in the league right now. Why do those Massholes get to win AGAIN!!!!! They always get to win.  In all sports. Buffalo gets one team that gets close every decade or so, but never gets it done. It really sucks.

Thank you! I live in New England and it sucks to see what has happened in the past 9 months. It truly does feel like 5 years ago except the Bills are the 2020 Pats and the Pats are the 2020 Bills. Check out the ticket prices for the Bills Pats game coming up in Foxboro.

Except they get the benefit of catching the Chiefs and Ravens on the decline. They now have a decade-long dynasty window again, while we had to have our rise coincide with the Chiefs' dynasty. The Pats will win the Super Bowl this year and then get better as every FA goes there this offseason. This is the worst possible situation for the Bills, and no one in the organization even seems to recognize that it's happening.

Losing home games to Toronto? Since when are the Bills going to start playing home games in Toronto. That makes no sense especially with the new stadium opening in 2026.
