    BB HC Watch

    Agree to disagree. I don't disrespect your opinion, and it's in line w/ the national narrative on Allen. I'm a fan of his game, and think he does everything for that team. I can't name another Bill that made a play on Sunday. The fact that you did watch the best to ever do it does make the...

    BB HC Watch

    That's fair. I do see him more in that mode. He takes chances - some pay off, some don't. People talk about his turnovers a lot - but not so much about how many TD's he has. I think he'll spend a whole lot of time losing as long as his team's defense can't make stops in the playoffs, and his...

    BB HC Watch

    You're of course entitled to your opinion - but all of this dissection on that play nationally just shows where we are in terms of analyzing games & decisions. Allen wasn't forcing the ball in between 2 or 3 defenders. I'm of the school of thought that if you see an open TD, you take it. The...

    Shakir? I'd say he was. That's a pretty easy throw & catch for Allen if Jones didn't get to him.

    BB HC Watch

    100% disagree. I saw some analysis yesterday that Romo's commentary on that throw to the endzone really colored how a lot of people looked at that decision. But Shakir was open, and that's a TD if Chris Jones gets there a quarter second later. And Chris Jones did get there - so it would have...

    The 2023 Season NFL Playoffs Thread

    I don't know any Bills fans that don't expect the worst outcome. Are they excited to have a good QB & a team that's in the mix? Sure. But most wait for the other shoe to drop, always.

    The 2023 Season NFL Playoffs Thread

    It wasn't a force. Shakir was wide open. Jones got there just a little early. I didn't see it as "hero ball," but opinions can vary. I just don't know how anyone watched that game, and says they lost because of Allen. He played great.

    The 2023 Season NFL Playoffs Thread

    You can have your narrative - and it's working for now. But who else on the Bills made a play in that game? Brady - the GOAT, indisputably - had guys making plays for him all over the place, on offense & defense. The Bills D made literally no plays tonight. Sherfield & Diggs both dropped long...

    The 2023 Season NFL Playoffs Thread

    I mean - you think he had a bad game tonight? Because of a pass that didn't get picked, an a fumble that didn't get recovered by the other team?

    Week 14 other games

    Mahomes is on par w/ most of those QB's, and has 2 titles already. Allen is kind of close to Big Ben - very similar styles and quality of play. Burrow has a ton of potential, but has had a couple of tough injuries thus far in his career. Other guys look like they have potential to be really...

    Week 14 other games

    You think? I remember many Pats fans didn't speak quite as highly about most of the guys you list when they were playing. Things tend to get mythologized a bit as time goes on. Mahomes and Allen weren't good yesterday, but they've already had a few legendary battles, and there is a pretty...

    QB1 Mac Jones voted #85

    Don't remember? A lot of them weren't even born yet in the early '90s. I'm sure most still want to win a SB. But I can hardly blame them for being excited about the current team after so long in purgatory. Boston fans of a certain age might still be able to relate, at least in one of the...

    Tyreek Hill traded to Miami Dolphins from Kansas City Chiefs

    Seems like one of those trades where all 3 parties lost in the short-term. The Chiefs will have a hard time winning that division now, Hill won't have Mahomes throwing to him anymore, and the Phins will improve - but not enough to really contend in the AFC. Maybe a WC now. The Chiefs gain in...

    MLB about to deliver the high hard one

    You think? I didn't see this as a big story. Obviously, we don't know the content - but it's probably just some ridicule for the Yankees for a week or so. I doubt we'll see anything actionable. The Yankees are still projected at 90+, and top 10 in most preseason rankings. This will be a...

    SUPER Wildcard Weekend Game Patriots @ Bills Gamete Thread - Saturday 8:15 PM

    One of the 1st comparisons I saw after Saturday was how the Red Sox flipped the script on the Yankees in 2004. Absolutely, the Red Sox followed it up by basically owning the Yankees for much of the past 15+ years. But at that moment, I think most Red Sox fans would say a new era started, and...

    Mac Jones Is Our QB1

    For sure, there are too many hot takes on Jones based on the last couple of weeks - where he really didn't even play that badly. I still see him being the long-term QB for NE, and no one knows what his ceiling is. But Allen is a top 3 QB in the league, imo. I don't see the inconsistency you're...

    2021 Was a nice run

    I mean, not that it's my role to do any kind of pep talk for Pats fans - but New England could definitely go on a deep run this year. There isn't a coach in either conference who has even a fraction of Belichick's playoff experience. That, to me, is kind of a big deal. The Patriots have been...

    Week 13 Gamete Thread - @Bills, Mon Dec 6th, 8:15pm EST

    It's not a linear progression - at least necessarily. I've seen many say that because Mac is playing better as a rookie than Brady did, he'll naturally progress the same way. But we don't know - scouts DID say he was the most pro ready. He may get a lot better - or he may not. It's quite the...

    Week 13 Gamete Thread - @Bills, Mon Dec 6th, 8:15pm EST

    Somewhat of a backhanded compliment. But it's generous of you to allow other fans some excitement, if not full-blown hope.
