Allen is still a work in progress
Just how far he progresses will determine how our season goes

If Parkey could of put the ball through the uprights instead of making a career out of hitting them there is no telling how far the Bears could of went. In the playoffs you need to run the ball and play good defence. I’ve watched the 2013 Broncos and last years Chiefs completely blitz the NFL offensively and have nothing to show for it. In that same time frame the 2013 Seahawks and 2015 Broncos won SuperBowls with the best defences.

Matthew Stafford, Matt Ryan and Aaron Rodgers watched the playoffs at home last year while Lamar Jackson, Blaine Gabbert, and Mitchell Trubisky all started playoff games.

Blake Bortles was a “Doug Marrone conservative game plan” in the 2nd half away from playing in the Super Bowl last year.

Many ways to build a team
It’s a rarity for u to do much without a great QB- or at least a really good one

Also...
the Bills are nowhere close to thinking about Super Bowls
THIS SEASON’s success will be determined by how much Allen develops

Believe it's solely dictated by age as of 9/15. 21 = 3 years, 22 = 2 years. It's the CBA, could always be a catch somewhere.

wouldn't call it decent

reminded me of trent dilfer

the stooge maroone got the ball with 1 minute 20 seconds in the first half and decided to take a knee
when you play the pats like that, you will lose

disagree


they should feel they can beat the patriots

and if they get in the playoffs they should feel like they can win it


pats step back
kc step back
steelers step back

cleveland x factor
baltimore, does nothing
chargers are the chargers



colts IMO could be the wild card to come out of the AFC, but no team stands out right now

I appreciate your optimism,
but the Bills are a fringe playoff team at best
And that’s if things go right for them

Steelers are finished. Cleveland and Baltimore will battle it out for the North. Indy should win the South but the Titans always seem to find a way to be competitive and the Jags can enter back into the convo with Foles in the mix. AFC West is the best division in football. AFC East is the Pats and we’ll see what the Bills and Jets can do under year two of Darnold and Allen.

If anyone is watching the Dallas blues game there is a hell of a green light sitting behind the Dallas bench.

I honestly I think our best chance of winning the cup before Eichel’s contract expires, is by signing Eberle to 4yr x 8.5m, let Skinner walk, trade Reinhart and Ristolainen for Barzel, get ted Nolan as coach, sign leHner to 5yrs x 6.5m and then we just really have to hope that girgensons turns into the thirty goal scorer we had hoped he would be. I can’t wait for this offseason !!!!!
