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.

Yeah, they seem to really not understand that having a team that can really beat the shit out of mediocre and bad teams and bad QBs doesn't mean shit.
All those "Elite" defenses wilted in the playoffs against elite QBs.
They have kind of been the opposite of the early Andy Reid Chiefs, who had a really good defense that was championship caliber, and an offense that was not (but had great numbers in the regular season due to bad teams).
Allen has made their offense championship caliber in the playoffs (for the most part, it was NOT in the one AFC title game they made). Their defense has folded against the Chiefs and Bengals each and every year. [Reply]

If you listen to them talk the difference between KC and Buffalo is injuries. It’s how they justify being on KCs level despite the lack of hardware. [Reply]

Actually, IIRC, we would run every single human connected to the team down for the entire off-season and demand the head of the HC, QB, and GM... [Reply]
