The mighty Bills from Buffalo will take the AFC this year.
For two decades I watched people say the Patriots window was closed, that their time was dwindling, that it was all over… seemingly every time those predictions happened, the Patriots went and won another Super Bowl.
A lot of doom talk simply because we lost to the Bengals in the playoffs. Let us not forget that the Bills watched their brother DIE on the field just a few weeks prior. Their heart was simply not in it. If it had been, the Bills would have captured the AFC last year.
The Bills have won 2 of their last 3 in Arrowhead and they’re ready to make it 3 of the last 4.

Again McDermott is bad at many things but developing defenders is not one of them. Ed Oliver, Greg Rousseau and Matt Milano are the top guys again next year while Terrell Bernard, Taron Johnson, Christian Benford and Rasul Douglas were the guys taking over for the older declining players.
The Jets absolutely have the talent. We agree. We disagree that they will reach their potential. I don’t trust that moron Hackett and Rodgers trying to control everything just screams internal disaster to me.
You keep trying to pick our one or two guys like White and Hyde like it's not an entire group of starters that is now gone.
Both starting WRs, starting C, both starting safeties, a starting corner, and a starting edge rusher.
That not nothing no matter how much you try to pretend it is. It's almost 1/3 of their starters. [Reply]
Oh yea, and pretty sure even in just those 4 games, White had a higher PFF grade than any of their other CBs, and he was clearly missed after. Hyde had a solid grade on the season too, and he only missed a few games.
Are those 2 losses as big as the names would indicate? No.
Does that mean losing them along with the others makes the Bills better? Absolutely not, and it's silly to think otherwise. [Reply]

Like Alex after his catastrophic leg injury. Can't win shit with that. At the end of the day, the Bills have the best QB by a mile.
Tua had Tyreek, Waddle, Mostert and Achane and yet he still struggled as the year went on. He’s an Alex Smith type player. Same thing as Brock Purdy. The system is what teams worry about not the QB.
Looking good against shit defenses like Denver, Carolina and the Chargers then slowly falling apart by January.
The Bills with a bunch of washed players and young dudes on defense had that offense locked down. [Reply]
The Dolphins are frauds in terms of SB contenders, but that doesn't mean they can't win the division. They were too close last year to completely write them off. It's silly.
I think the Jets are most likely, and I give the Bills a slight edge over Miami because of the QBs.
But again, Josh Allen is going to have to be Superman like never before next season. We have no clue what that will do to him physically. We also have no clue how he will respond without his top 2 WRs the last few years. [Reply]

We all know what happens when he starts to press..... [Reply]

And who would take Tua over Purdy at this point? Purdy is 4-2 in the playoffs, 6:1 TD/INT ratio and a 96.2 Passer Rating in the playoffs. Tua is 0-1 in the playoffs, 1:1 TD/INT ratio, with a dismal 63.9 Passer Rating. And he's only been healthy for one complete season.
I'd take Purdy every day and twice on Sunday. [Reply]
Good chance he runs more with no weapons to throw to and gets hurt. Run, no excuses if that happens....we warned you. No cop out of but but but how'd I know he'd get hurt!!! He's tough!!!! [Reply]

Yep, they topped out at getting their asses kicked in the conference championship game. They'll have to take pride in putting up a strong fight in a couple divisional round games. That's the kind of record that would only satisfy a Detroit fan. [Reply]

I'd ****ing revolt against that loser ass franchise. That's one of the most absurd things I've ever heard. Those PSLs are gonna get back the money that the owners lost to build the stadium. Sketchy ****s.
The house the 13 seconds game built. It'll chew at New York state's ass for decades [Reply]
