Buffalo has zero blue chip difference makers outside Allen....

[MiaFins31]

The ONLY thing that’s going to stop Buffalo is McDermott.

I still don’t trust him in a do or die situation but the way JA is playing… he may not even need to overcome it.

I don’t think Buffalo would beat Philly in a SB but it wouldn’t surprise me in the least if they did.

This is Buffalos best chance. If they don’t get it done this year then it’s just not meant to be.

I will say that KC WILL NOT win or even make the SB this year. They won’t beat Buffalo or Baltimore.

Baltimore is the only team that can stop Buffalo in the AFC.

A month ago I would have said Detroit will be the NFC representative but the injuries are going to derail them in the playoffs. I think the NFC is Phillys to lose but watch out for GB. They have playoff experience and proved last year they can win on the road.

I say it’ll be Buffalo vs Philly as of today and I think Philly wins.

You are/will be wrong.
They will win next year. This year they won't win because they still have McDermott. He worked for Andy for a few years in Philadelphia. That's why he has to bow down to him. So either Reid retires after winning it all this year. Or McDermott is fired for new coach that doesn't owe Reid Fealty.
Who did Belichick lose to during his reign? The Giants. Twice.
And when did the Giants win those Two SBs? While building a new stadium.
The Raiders did t a SB till going to a 4th conference championship in a row. They lost 3 others during a few years before that

Well I never claimed to be Nostradamus and I very well could be wrong but I don’t think so.

I say again… this is Buffalos best chance with Allen at the top of his game and playing as well as he ever has. If he can’t get it done this year then it’s just not meant to be and I stand by that.

You'll be shocked and amazed next year

Bro it’s the NFL and I’ve been watching this game to long… nothing shocks or amazes me anymore.

And if Buffalo did win it next year or in 3 years or 5 years it still wouldn’t amaze or shock me.

It’s just a prediction… nothing more nothing less.

I tend to think the NFL does award teams whose Billionaire owners were able to secure more fan money (and taxpayer money) for Stadiums. I tend to agree the NFL does ensure those teams that drive their record products and revenue each year get different treatment by the league. See Brady years see the Swift help from the stripes this year.

The league I do not think is rigged but the refs will ensure putting the outcomes the league would desire in reach every Sunday.

Well, therefore rigged.
It's the same thing.
Browns become Ravens. Go to SB. Rams and Titans move. Go to SB vs each other. Rams move again, go to another couple SBs. It's obvious if you pay attention.
Atlanta, new Stadium, go to SB.

I guess we are arguing semantics I see rigged as a scripted outcome similar to WWE. I do not think the winners of the games are scripted to me. I do think even more with gambling now there are preferred outcomes and scheduling helps achieve preferred outcomes. Similar with how games are called by the refs. But ultimately I do think the teams have to perform to make sure the preferred outcome is achieved.

Unlike WWE I don’t think the players are in on the “fix”

I was rooting for the Chiefs although if the Bills had of won I wouldn't have been too upset, I don't think there has been a 5 time loser in the Super Bowl!

Bill Burrs "massaged" statement is correct. It's not "fixed" but I can guarantee the NFL prefers certain matchups.

Regardless, every single team in the modern NFL has to over come at least two calls per game by the zebra's that will most likely amount to a points change. It might be a TD that ends up a field goal or it might be a critical stop that ends up being a PI or 1st down that ends up as 3 to 7pts. I've been paying attention to this closely the past three seasons and it is 100% occurring and does affect the outcomes.

However, almost all the teams that made the playoffs this this over came those plays and went on to win games and that is the difference between a good team and an average team. Even after the 4th down call the Bills had a chance to stop KC and move on to win, they didn't. Mahomes and KC played a well coached game, the play call on the 4th and 1 was suspect, you had very limited success with it and everyone knew you were going to run it, great time to let your RB pick up a 1st and potential a Superbowl appearance.

I know a lot of my friends who are Buffalo fans blamed the play calling more than the refs.

 

[eMCee85]

Now that they lost milano for the year, can anyone name a single difference maker on their team outside Allen??? I'm telling you they might win 7-8 games this year.

This ended well, you really know your stuff!

 

[eMCee85]

What a good time in this thread. Lots of ppl totally wrong about certain players. Some of the same ppl who are wrong about our own players so not surprised

 

[eMCee85]

Bills aren't scary anymore... The Allen running style coupled with with Diggs and a great defense made them scary... When all thats left is a heavy run team with a couple of TEs and a weakened D, the outlook isn't all that promising.

Ah hem... lol

 

[JamesWsenior]

Ah hem... lol

Lol you got a hard on today for him Emcee. Two topics in a row!

Nah I'm just messing with em. Kinda crazy to see all the ppl thinking bad about buffalo though. A lot of homerism. I mean, I'm glad ppl love our team but we can't have blinders on. Anyway I just like messin with yall sometimes. It's how me n my boys grew up so old habits die hard.
