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.

It would also mean significantly less rushes for Josh, which should reduce Allen's chances of injury. And finally, it would make BUF a legit Sb contender this year.
If ever a team would be gun shy about doing something like that it would be Buffalo. They are still dealing with the shell of Von Miller and his monster contract and they didn't even trade for him. [Reply]

You'd think they'd have learned from going "all-in" for aging Von Miller. Davante has a lot of tred on those tires. His best football is behind him.
Yeah, except that BUF doesn’t have the best offensive mind in the league, or the best DC in the league, the best TE of all time, and then the best QB of all time.
Point being, they’re in a significantly different situation.
And their offense isn’t moribund; it just lacks that guy who can make the right plays when needed and force the defense to have to account for him. [Reply]

Yep. Just when they were making the moves to get the slate clean from previous mistakes and open another window for the Super Bowl, they're looking at maxing out the credit cards again when their eyes are dazzled by a flashy trinket. [Reply]

Feel free to check my #'s but pretty sure roughly 1/4 of their 2024 cap is Dead Cap. Another roughly $15 mil to Von Miller. Von is pretty much a parking cone out there at this stage. That roster is not making a deep run this year with or without Davante Adams. [Reply]

Oh, I believe you. Never thought of it those terms. Just in terms of what Adams would bring those offenses, what the QB situations were, and which team could use him most effectively. Out of the teams that are interested, BUF seems like the best fit, that's all. [Reply]
