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.

He’s not a QB you should worry about torching you with his arm if you have a healthy secondary.
Can you give me some evidence that he struggles in the cold?? Please?? [Reply]

Yeah I don’t get the “Allen struggles in the cold” line of thinking. He plays in Buffalo of all places. You can make that argument for Tua, just not Allen. [Reply]
Amazing what a RB like Ty Johnson can do in the passing game. He’s their Jerrick McKinnon.
He’s made Josh Allen so much better in the passing game while Mahomes doesn’t have a RB with juice in the passing game like him. Perine is fine but he’s not as elusive as what we’ve had in previous years. [Reply]

WTF?
You are concerned about Josh anytime. [Reply]

Best part about Allen flopping is that the guy is damn near DE size.
I mean he's like 6'5" 250 lbs and when someone touches him he acts like a scat back.
Oh well. All QBs try to sell calls these days because annoyingly, they get rewarded for it. But there's something especially funny about that tank of a human being doing it. [Reply]

Perine would have similar impact if they'd, you know, get him the ball more. [Reply]

Didn’t Cam Newton basically get the Shaq treatment by refs? Felt like teams could beat the shit out of him without getting called.
Can’t say I blame Allen too much. As a big dude, he won’t get those calls unless he sells for them.

Still looks like a bitch though.
I'm no Newton fan. None at all. But them telling him "he hasn't earned that call" pisses me off infinitely to this day. [Reply]

He’s okay but he doesn’t have much juice. Not a surprise that the offense started going downhill when McKinnon got hurt/left after his awesome 2022 season.
Huge missing piece to our offense and a big reason Josh Allen is having success this year.
This play from Josh Allen sums up his entire season. Something from nothing. Ty Johnson also deserves enormous credit for sprinting to get open. #BillsMafiapic.twitter.com/YZHLK8eRS8

Ty Johnson has 16 catches, 275 yards and 3 td's. 29 carries for 154 yards and 1 td.
Perine has 22 catches, 239 yards and 1 td. 17 carries for 82 yards and 1 td.
Most of Johnson's production has come in the last two games against weak defenses. Perine has consistently been a reliable 3rd down back for this team despite not even being in the system for long.
Mckinon was barely used in his first year with the Chiefs and then came alive in the playoffs. Perine could easily do the same imo. As for Johnson. Teams will key in on what he's doing now for sure. He barely runs the ball so the signs will be there. [Reply]

Divisional snow game he struggled pretty bad against the Bengals. Divisional game last year against us he became a check down FB in probably the biggest game of his career. Not sure if that is from the cold or the pressure of the situation but he really only “torched” the Chiefs in the playoffs when our most critical piece went out. [Reply]

I feel like Perine will be used quite a bit more in the playoffs, and should be an excellent option for Mahomes. [Reply]
