When my team, or at least a significant function of my team, operates at a championship caliber level, I acknowledge it.

A win is a win. Who asks how they played the game. Only important thing is the final score.

Everything else about the game ... Is Drama .

Can anybody be happy about our teams doing anything without you putting a negative spin on it? Relax, savor the victories. In no time at all you will have something to whine about again . After all it is Buffalo and we have an inferiority complex .

It was a joke: one somebody put up on my Facebook. You should take your own advice, the same one Aaron Rodgers gave a couple months ago.

I had thought that Bflo D-backs were the weakness on that Defense, but the last 2 weeks against 2 of the top 5 QBs have me believing in them.
Can they possibly go to Oakland and win (yes, of course)... Then go to NE and win there against Brady...that will be the defining point in my mind.

If they finish 10-6 then I see this coaching staff staying in tact. At which point the gantlet will have been thrown at the feet of the GM to find a suitable QB. Not sure how he is supposed to fing and then get one, but that will be squarely on his shoulders.

Orton is making the win column look more attractive than past teams we have had . He isn't doing it alone . Receivers are actually catching and producing yards after the catch. Been a long time since we have seen this on any given Sunday.

If Pegula brings in the football consultant like he is rumored to do, I would have to imagine he would want to upgrade at offensive coordinator, no matter what happens for the rest of the year.

That is a given . But how loyal Marrone to Hackett? Remember when Mr Wilson fired Wade Philips because he would not fire his special teams coach after the Music City Miracle?

I thought it was his offensive coordinator. Phillips remained as Head Coach for another year after the Music City Miracle, which happened in January of 2000. Phillips was fired in January of 2001.

I believe Mularkey resigned in 2006 because he wouldn't fire a lot of his assistants, but that was believed to have been a ploy by Wilson so that he wouldn't have to pay him after he fired him.

I also think the DB's are the weakness of the D but I thought Gilmore played the best game I've ever seen him play.

Pass rush didn't get the sacks but Rodgers was forced into the worst game I've seen him play.

Back to back week this Bills D hasn't allowed a first round ballot HOF and Super Bowl winning QB to throw for 200 yards and not throw a TD and made them throw 2 picks...

Like I said the other day the DB's are fine. The front 4 on the DL is the best front 4 in the entire league. Only 1 sack in the last 2 weeks but my god was Rodgers uncomfortable all game long.

All I want for Christmas is for the front 7 to sack Brady like the rag doll he is..get in his face and hit him hard and hit him often.
If they can figure out how to take Gronk out of the game, they have a reasonable shot.

This article nails it. His minutes are sheltered because he's a defensive liability. His contract sucks (thanks Darcy) and is immovable in trade. Push will come to shove with this guy. Either he makes major strides in his defensive game or he is heading for a buyout or getting waived and contract termination.

Clearly Nolan and company don't know what to do with him. If he's a throw in a trade and we eat a portion of his salary, so be it. Doubtful there is a team out there that would want him. We're stuck this ghost of a hockey player.

We all have that on the xmas list.

What the hell do we do if the
Bills win out and make the playoffs ? Anyone have a criteria list of how to react ?

Be angry because they are a wild card and not the division winner?
