Don't let this distract you from the fact that in 1998, The Undertaker threw Mankind off Hell In A Cell, and plummeted 16 ft through an announcer’s table.

If you think that not having a QB was the only thing wrong these past 2 decades, you really are incompetent at thinking.

Drew Bledsoe is one of the most underrated QBs ever.

And before the washed up comments come flying in here, he took Dallas to the playoffs as soon as he left Buffalo.

- BeadyEyedDouche



The Cowboys missed the playoffs in 2005 under Bledsoe's tenure. Tony Romo took over and got the Cowboys to the playoffs in 2006.

I am usually not a defender of mediocrity, and I believe the Bills fall between average and slightly above average. However, compared to the rest of the conference, we look like a big threat to the WC.

Even KC, Pitt and NE have serious flaws right now.

It's not just about quality of the team. It's about needing a win against a team they are competing with for that spot. The teams you mentioned above will win their divisions regardless of their flaws, barring some disaster. They're irrelevant in this conversation.

Lol ok Oakland , Green Bay , Colts , Eagles , Houston Texans , What’s when they found the QB everything worked itself the place right ?


The quarterback is the most important position in football you can glide to the playoffs with flaws in your team if you have a great QB

- GERBE!!!75PTS


And if you have a great team and a mediocre to good QB, you can win the Super Bowl.

See: Baltimore Ravens, New York Giants (Yeah, I went there), Seattle Seahawks, Tampa Bay Buccaneers. All within the past 15 years.

Buffalo leads the league with a plus-10 turnover margin and has posted the second-fewest giveaways (three) of any team. Meanwhile, Oakland is the first team in NFL history not to intercept a pass in its first seven games of a season, per the Elias Sports Bureau.

Yeah, of course. But we have the best QB since Bledsoe right now, and he s clearly superior to Sanchez (who made the playoffs), and while tannehill can have a better day than Tyrod, I would say on the average, tyrod is the more consistent, and therefore better QB.

My point is crappier teams with crappier qbs make the playoffs. 17 years has nothing to do with this discussion

You guys are lucky I never got to see Bledsoe lol

Jp And Edwards for me

The weather could make the passing game a non-factor on Sunday.

I was 7th grade lol.

I was in 4th grade the last time we made the playoffs. I'm 10 years older than the drought, and I believe in some places I could legally date it

Agreed. I'm not saying they can't or even won't win, on Sunday, just that they need to.

Trust me, I ain't lucky being a Bills fan.

Can someone name me one game where you said Holy poop the Sabres are impressive and they dominated !

I can only think of the Montreal game after that I don’t know what the hell happened to that team

- GERBE!!!75PTS



Love how you pick out the parts you want to address but ignore the others.... Let me know how that works out for you when you get a real job.

Apparently the Sabres are incapable of improving while learning a new system, Pack it up boys.... We forfeit the rest of the year... Gerbe say's you all suck and won't learn anything.

Oh but he said that about the Bills too...SO maybe we should just keep playing and see where it goes.

It rips me apart on the inside.

It was the most joyous experience of my life.

I couldn't imagine. Hearing about this makes me upset.

Fried chicken is in fact one of my favorite foods. I don't think there is a single place that makes it that I don't like. Popeye's is my favorite though.

My first job was cooking at a KFC, ate it three or four nights a week and even with everything I know about their kitchens ( ) I would still stop at a KFC on the way home for some chicken tonight.

I really like it.
