Chiefs The Bills take the AFC this seasom - Page 456

JustDíqLix · 08-21-2023, 05:53 PM

Are you ready for some football!?

I know I am!

With that, I am here to make a proclamation!

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.

Let’s go mighty Buffalo Bills! 🦬 🦬 🦬

"Did the most with least"

I'm sick of hearing this shit. He had a very good offensive line, two decent TEs, and a great running game.

Some QBs lay awake at night DREAMING of what Joshy poo was given on offense.

Sounds irreconcilable.

This is arguably the most Rainbarrel post from someone not named Rainbarrel I have seen in quite some time.

One of the top 3 olines in the NFL. Josh has plenty.

Yep.They have it backwards. Having a very good OL, like the Bills do, makes everything EASIER.

39. QB Patrick Mahomes, Kansas City Chiefs
After ranking in the top five of the PFF 101 in each of the previous two seasons, Mahomes saw a notable dip in production and impact during the 2024 campaign, leading to a slight slide. However, he remains one of the best in the game at limiting mistakes—one of the most valuable traits a quarterback can have—ranking in the 82nd percentile in avoiding negative plays.

Pff is shit.

the Buffalo Bills last 5 yrs:

61 regular season wins (#2 in NFL)
7 playoff wins (#2 in NFL)

but

0 Conference Championships
0 Super Bowls

who is to blame?

hint: Josh Allen is the #1 most efficient QB in the playoffs the last 5 yrs

Shocker, the same bundle of sticks that was pushing the ref narrative is now sucking Josh Allen's dick and defending him like we didn't all watch him fail with the ball in his hands and a chance to win the game for the 2nd year in a row.

What's interesting is if you really analyze it closely, Josh and his teammates had about 4 turnover worthy plays in the Playoff game a year ago. This year's Playoff game against KC? Buffalo had 7-8 turnover worthy plays. They magically got away with all of them in BOTH games. It's pretty damn misleading for anyone to bring up efficiency stats while ignoring the luck factor that hides the turnover worthy mistakes.

Somehow in this year's game with 5 fumbles, Buffalo recovered 100% of them. 4 of those fumbles were by the Buffalo offense. A year ago Allen got away with 2 turnover worthy plays on the final drive, in addition to failing to take the easy checkdown for 15 yards with the game on the line. If that was Mahomes, the media would attack him for it instead of giving him a free pass.

Pro Football Hall of Famer Warren Sapp made more than $58 million during his 13-year NFL career but will earn only $150,000 annually in his new entry-level coaching job at Colorado under head coach Deion Sanders, according to employment documents obtained by USA TODAY Sports," Schrotenboer wrote.Apr 3, 2024

Opportunities must be made sometimes

Rainbarrel · 02-22-2025, 05:23 PM

On a list of best owners(some odd site)Patriots, Chiefs, Ravens then Bills fourth. This is also going to be seen as disrespectful of Allen's greatness

SI's NFL Power Rankings disrespect Bills in favor of NFC team
The Buffalo Bills finished behind two NFC teams in the post-Super Bowl hierarchy.
Ralph Ventre | Feb 21, 2025

Buffalo Bills

The Buffalo Bills defeated the Detroit Lions on the road late during the regular season and advanced one postseason round further than their NFC North counterpart in 2024.

Considering those facts, it is surprising to see Buffalo ranked behind Detroit in Sports Illustrated's post-Super Bowl LIX Power Rankings. While the world champion Philadelphia Eagles rightfully top the chart, the Lions sit at No. 2 overall ahead of the AFC champion Kansas City Chiefs, who were tabbed third.

The Bills landed at No. 4 in the rankings, one spot ahead of the AFC rival Baltimore Ravens. Buffalo edged Baltimore by two points in last month's AFC Divisional Round affair at Highmark Stadium.

It's certainly understandable for the Bills to rank behind the two current conference champions, but other than the Eagles and the Chiefs, the Bills were arguably the NFL's best in 2024. Buffalo benefitted from a MVP season from quarterback Josh Allen, consistently effective offensive line play and a defense that took the ball away 32 times (third most-frequently in the NFL).

In the head-to-head road win over Detroit, Allen became the first player since the NFL merger to pass for three touchdowns and rush for three touchdowns in the same game.

addition to being tied with the Ravens for the AFC's top point differential (+157), Buffalo defeated both the Lions and the Chiefs during a 13-win regular season that allowed the team to sit its starters in Week 18.

In the end, all that matters is the Bills weren't the one hoisting the Lombardi Trophy in New Orleans. The only spot that truly matters in postseason power rankings is No. 1. Neither Buffalo nor Detroit finished the job.

The Bills and their dick suckers in the media constantly act like winning shit in the regular season means anything.

"But they beat the Chiefs!"

How well has that worked out for them?

It's interesting that they point out the "disrespect" for the Lions being ranked ahead of the Bills, but not the "disrespect" of the Lions being ranked ahead of the Chiefs. Maybe because as Chiefs fans we don't really care, but the Bills fans do care because they're not getting the respect of having won the SB.

And, as SNR pointed out,

The football media seems to lack any understanding of the difference between the regular season and the playoffs. You only go all out to win a game in the regular season if your season depends upon it. If it doesn't, you don't sacrifice everything for the sake of that one game. I guess some coaches can take that approach, but it's not a good idea.

OTOH, once you're in the playoffs, your season is hanging in the balance in every single game. This is where you do whatever it takes to win because there is no next week for the loser.

Some of these people need to learn the concept of a "pyrrhic victory."

Reid coached the Super Bowl like there’s a game the week after.

There was plenty of blame to go around. Reid has proven himself to be an excellent coach. We can learn the lessons of why we lost without unnecessarily heaping blame onto any one person.
