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.

The Patriots. Blaming anything other than themselves.
lol your path to the SB goes through the Ravens and the 2 week rested Chiefs. why would you not take every possible opportunity to rest starters. you need every advantage possible! you're going to play against a team that is extremely good at winning games at the margins, you can't cede the margins before the game even starts [Reply]

Josh Allen on getting the start against the Patriots to extend his consecutive starts streak which sits at 114 (counting playoffs): “It’s something that means a lot to me. Just making sure that I’m available, playing through things throughout the years.. Glad I get to start.”… pic.twitter.com/u0BZDmSGs2

I mean, if you play Allen and are padding his stats as you do it, aren’t you risking the football gods making you pay?
Why expose your QB to injury in a game that doesn’t matter?
I can see letting him have a series to keep his silly streak alive, but it would be pretty silly to do something like the tush push or QB power while they do it. [Reply]

If Allen got hurt playing in a meaningless game, McDermott is fired, right? [Reply]
