At 6-6 the Titans, Colts and Texans are alive and well in the playoff hunt, while the Bills are dead in the water. How fair is that? At 6-6 we want the Bills hung from the highest tree.

Aside from the Texans, as fans there's still hope and reason for excitement if you root for Indy and the Titans. Without a quality QB I've lost all hope for the Bills.

as long as you have a losing record in your division, and conference, I can't make a case why you should make the playoffs


of course I can make a case why the teams in the afc south should not make the playoffs, and 1 will get in


scary part is aside from the second pats game, you can easily make a case why the bills should have won a game they lost

imagine if they ran the table and went 11-1


then again, imagine them losing to the jags and bengals and being 4-8

Even if we had a qb our front office and coaching staff would still undermine everything.

With he current playoff format you could have a losing division and conference record and still get in the playoffs. While a team with a winning record doesn't make it.

if they keep taylor, darius, gilmore, watkins, clay


there is no money to make this team better other than cheap free agents and draft picks

the silver lining is you got your first 2 picks from last years draft that should be impact players next year

honestly that could also happen in the other sports


hockey takes first 3 from each division, only 2 could have a winning record

mlb takes division winners, one could have a losing record



my only issue is the division winner with a losing record, hosts a home playoff game

I think home field should be based on winning percentage

NHL just switched that. They take all the worst cues from the NFL.

''I mean give them credit, they're a good team, but I think we're starting to sit back and they have speed, you know?'' Lehner said. ''I think we see that we can play. We've just got to stop changing, changing how we play.''

Anyone else think Jack is still not 100%? He looks nervous out there...probably worried about re-injury...

Don't get me wrong...Jack at 75% is better than everyone else on this team outside ROR and Risto...but if he's not fully healthy don't push him. Girgs is used to jumping around on lines, let him take every other shift from Jack until Jack is back at 100%.

Jack can still play in key situations and on the PP but he doesn't have to 20 min. a game (which right now he doesn't look like he can).

I think he looks now like he did at this time last year. There are points of the game where he seems to feel like he has to do it all himself, and instead of just letting the game happen things get away from him from time to time.

When the Bills hired Rex and when the Sabres hired Disco Dan both fan bases warned us. They weren't trash talking, they just knew.

He's either gonna have to play through or sit 2 months IMO.

He still has flashes and he can still create on the Powerplay.

basically he said more of nothing..
