Maybe they choke down the stretch again

Because the only path I see for the Bills to make the playoffs is as the AFC East Champs

Couldn’t have happened to a nicer guy…

At the beginning of the season, did you think you would be typing this halfway through the season? Lol. What a wild ride so far.

I knew the Fins would be good but I thought the Bills might be better.

5 losses by a combined 23 points a play here a penalty there can make all the difference between 5-5 and 7-3.

Lots of peeps jumping off the band wagon but I am not one of them.

As a fan I have seen a lot darker days

If there are people jumping off the Bills bandwagon then good, makes for more room for real fans not the fair weather type as for "dark days" if we could survive Super Bowl XXV "Wide Right" and four straight Super Bowl loses and are still fans, then good for us, we`re the REAL FANS who stick with the team during good years and the bad years.

So much heartbreak between the Bills and Sabres...but that will make it that much sweeter one day when the dream is finally realized!

Looks like those chances went down considerably last night.

Burrow is a good/great QB but the best ability is availability.

He seems to be made of glass.

Funny he wasn't on the injury report this week for a hand/wrist injury.

Yes and the 17 year playoff drought.

We need to have faith in the two redheaded Irishmen (McD and Brady) to get the train back on the tracks.

Here is a very good take on what got Dorsey gassed by Dan Orlovsky.

The Bronco's had 10 guys in box...old Josh under Dab's would have spread things out on an audible and created confusion for the D

Joe Brrrrrrr is out for the season. Possibly making it easier for other afc teams to get into playoffs.

Even if Joey B was healthy the Bengals chances are/were as bad as the Bills.

They got gifted a win against the Bills and dropped 2 straight to the Texans and Ravens.

They didn't look like a Super Bowl contender from the start of this year.

AFC North QB's are dropping like flies

Lamont is banged up and Pickett has never played all 17

You got to love football fans, no matter how bad their team played or finished the regular season out of the play-off`s they all have one hope and attitude,,,,,,,,,,,,"WAIT UNTIL NEXT SEASON"

Yes Cincy started off slow, but they had won 4 straight 3 of which were against teams with winning records, Sea, SF, and Buffalo. Boyd dropped the go ahead TD against the Texans and that game ended on a walk off FG by Houston. The score on TNF against the Ravens was 10-7 when Burrow left. And that they was gifted a win against the Bills is laughable, I'm sure I could go back and find some calls that went against Cincy in that game. Cincy never trailed and was up by 14 in the 4th, a late Bills TD made it look closer than it really was.

Most definitely, I guess we can look forward to getting a higher draft pick lol.
I wouldn't say he's made of glass but when you play behind bad oline and take alot of hits your're bound to get injuries. Doesn't help that he tends to hold on the ball to long at times and he needs to slide when scrambling

So if the Bengals don't make it, highly unlikely now, in the AFC I'll be pulling for anybody but the Chiefs or any AFC North team.
