The Bills won; where does the Bills rank in your book in terms of contending for superbowl now?

Down Oliver and Hoecht shouldn’t make them this bad.  We invested heavily into this group and they’re more pathetic than ever.

 

Josh Allen unleashed can beat anyone, but looks like another year of him having to drag us through the Playoffs, but hey.. maybe the Chiefs don’t make it. 
 

Sidenote: Already preparing myself to be sick to my stomach as the 5 seed having to go into Baltimore if Pittsburgh can’t take the Division. 
 

 

I think the back end of the defense is still trying to find it's identity. I believe they will get much better this year.  The thing that probably scares me most is if Bosa freezes in the big moments, we have seen it twice.

The thought of this defense running into Johnathan Taylor in the playoffs would give me nightmares. Josh usually brings his a game however homestly who knows until you get there.

Rutgers has a better chance of beating Ohio State this upcoming Saturday than the Bills do of winning the Super Bowl. Defense is garbage but it was nice seeing Josh like look 2024 Josh minus the two picks.

Weakest link is the DT's. Just look how the whole unit plays when Hoecht or Oliver are out there, bad interior DT play just makes everyone else look worse

Oliver played one and half a game. Really didn't stop the Ravens running all over us. Hoecht played the role of LB-DE combo and showed exactly what our LBs are missing. Right now Bernard and Milano looked small AND slow on the field. The lack of speed is alarming because they are both on the small side and they used to be able to use their speed to get to the hole or fire outside to meet the ball carriers beating the blockers. Maybe they are dealing with some injuries but it also highlights the lack of quality depth or youth at that position.

Bills defense is a joke. Maybe it's on purpose, the goal it to let the other team score quick so we can get the ball back and score again. Just need to score 40 pts a game.

About the same.  Maybe a little encouraged because they seemed to be able to manufacture a downfield passing game.
