      Totally ignore that you'd of been wrong predicting the SB participants week 11 of most every year. I didn't expect anything else. Carry on. Bills have no chance. We get it.

        I've never tried to predict SB participants in week 11 so I don't know what the hell you're talking about.

        Have you watched the Bills over the last month? Do they look like they have any shot at a SB?

            We beat em once and we can beat em again I always say.
            Best part we get to find out eventually or should I say most likely?
            Especially if we're healthy don't give a crap about them.

              Funny and sad at the same time....I think the Bills are the only team in the conference that can knock off the Chiefs. They don't fear them, and in fact, they seem to bring out the best in us.

              The problem is staying focused on the Lions, the Bears, and the Jet games.

              I'm sick of the AFCCG being played in Kansas City, thanks to that lame-ass division they play in. Three games and a tiebreaker ahead of the second place team, and two other teams that are virtually eliminated already with seven left to play.

                OP is right the team hasn't played well the last month. Rationalize all you want making BS excuses in your heads the team has not played well period.

                And they needed to play well to address what historian is talking about. They didn't. They all too often don't under McDermott along with the coaching blunders that never help.

                A month ago the Bills were in charge of their destiny and now they need to HOPE for a better destiny than they played for.

                Sad...but true.

                  All we can do is win 1 game at a time and to see where we end up.

                  Getting healthy, if that's even possible will change how things look.

                  It's a long season, with 7 regular season battles to go.

                    No disagreement. But that has no bearing on the game 2 days from now.

                    Bills played great start of season. That had zero to do with the game in Miami.

                    great until not. Not great until great once again.

                    how about the trend of mid season swooning that happened last season as well then it was gone?

                        So I choose THAT long term trend then. More credible than the last 4 weeks. Much more data.

                        it’s bull but if you live by trends…

                          hmmm.... when I mention previous years, it's "only this year matters." But, when it gives people the answer they're looking for- in this case, that the team will improve- suddenly, looking at prior years is acceptable. Weird how that works.

                            The Chiefs are consistent with their dominance.

                            Two stats I heard this week stand out:

                            1. Mahomes is the all time td passes per game leader, and second place is not even close. 2.45 per game. Allen is at 1.75 per game.

                            2. Mahomes has never lost divisional game away from home. Period.


                            We bring our best against them and on any given Sunday but if they're healthy, good luck...

The O is so reliant on Allen that even a minor injury is significant. 3 games in 11 days is a LOT and not a good way to get healthy.

                              We absolutely cannot lose to NE and go 0-3 in the division.
                              Over the last few years, buffalo has been among the least injured teams. I remember fans talking about that and wondering if Buffalo's efforts to maintain a state-of-the-art gym and rehab facility might be contributing to their record of good health. I don't think the Bills suddenly decided to change up equipment, practice routines and rehab protocols after they seem to have worked well. I think it is more likely the law of averages just caught up with them this season. I do agree that the New England game is critical to the Bills playoff hopes. For that matter, so are the rematches with Miami and the Jets.
                              I've made up my mind. Don't confuse me with the facts.

                              I'm the most reasonable poster here. If you don't agree, I'll be forced to have a hissy fit.

                                Wrong analysis. If WE'RE healthy good luck to them. We've beaten them 2of the last 3 and most definetely should have been 3 for 3.
