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 a douchey Bengals fan, but he's OUR resident douchey Bengals fan.
Diqlix on the other hand is like a grown up Mahomo who became a Bills fan. I picture him in Josh Allen pajamas everytime I read his posts.

Since you want to take away games, let’s look at what would happen if you took away Mahomes best 2 playoff games at the same point in his career, that Allen is at right now (8 playoff games).
With his best two games removed Mahomes playoff stats at that point would be 9 TD and 4 INT. Allen’s playoff stats with his best two games removed is 11 TD and 4 INT.
Hmm…
Not sure this is a hill you want to die on. [Reply]

The sample size for both QBs is small. We shouldn't be removing any games from either in judging them.
Allen's best game was obviously against the Patriots in 2021. He had a *perfect* game against a Belichick defense in weather in January. He gets all the props in the world for that performance. [Reply]

It's a joke to compare the postseason performances of Mahomes and Allen. Outside of the 2nd half vs the Bengals in the AFCC, Mahomes has consistently killed it in the postseason. Allen's had two good games (one in a losing effort) and the rest are mediocre if not bad.
And quit crying about misfortune. Even in the 13 second game, Allen got lucky numerous times. Two missed chip shot kicks, DB fell down and left a receiver wide open on a desperation 4th and 13 play, etc. He was lucky to even be in the game at the end. [Reply]

Daboll hit the Patriots defense( which relies on passing guys off and precision) with the same Air Raid overs play over and over and over.
Allen did get gaudy stats that game but was often late on throws.
In any case, Daboll gone and Dorsey not getting Allen those easy first reads as often now.
I told Diqlix Daboll was huge but he didn't believe it. [Reply]

But EVEN IF you did remove them, Allen STILL has more TD’s (11) than Burrow (10) and that would be with Allen playing one less game (since we took away two).
And that ignores the fact that Allen’s PPG in the playoffs is higher.
There is simply no argument for Burrow being better than Allen in the playoffs. Burrow is average in the playoffs. Allen is 20 TD, 4 INT and 27ppg in the playoffs.
Burrow has 1 more win and I think it’s pretty clear to see why…
Josh Allen’s defense in the playoffs
26 ppg given up
Joe Burrow’s defense in the playoffs:
19 ppg given up
Allen’s defense (which, by the way, he doesn’t play on) gives up an average of a Touchdown + extra point more, per playoff game, than Burrows.
If Allen had Burrow’s playoff defense, he may have a 7-1 playoff record. And the Bengals would definitely have a lombardi trophy.
That number is heavily skewed by a pair of games vs KC. In the other games, opponents averaged 20.7. Expecting to have a D that's going to shut down a healthy KC team (especially when Hill was on the roster) is slightly unrealistic.
Allen lost a game in which the D allowed 22 and won a game in which his offense scored 17 (by two TDs). His defense held NE to 17 and IND to 24. And I don't think defense was the reason for a 27-10 home loss to the Bengals.
Defense is a poor excuse. Especially from someone who's continually hyped the Bills' defensive talent for years. [Reply]

This is the dumbest thing posted in this thread. The temperature was close to 0, he went 21 of 25, and you’re saying he was “often late on throws” to diminish it.
This is the same shit other teams to do Mahomes to minimize how great he is. It’s nonsense. [Reply]

I like Rfaulk. He can take a joke and he's funny.
DiqLix is just a trolling douche who disappears the moment the Chiefs affirm their superiority over the National Football League. [Reply]

You're just looking at the stats. Which is fine if that's all you want to do.
