How cool would a Chief vs Lions SB game be? The season starts and ends with the same matchup.

As long as it has the same result I would be fine with that.

Assuming we win we have no choice but to face Mahomes because we do not want to face the Ravens. Our chances of beating the Ravens are slim to none

Agreed. We are all big Chief fans next week.

Allen has too much Lerooooy Jenkins in him, but I think the skill position players are below average. If they had a Ben Johnson calling plays they would look much better. It's too much on Josh Allen and it seems like he is not very disciplined in progression reads.

Wow he had Diggs wide open in the flat and short armed it into the end zone .
Not smart- you get the first down keep the clock running and then get the touchdown -even if they got the touchdown on that throw, Mahomes would’ve had too much time. Bad clock management.

The fake punt was a really dumb idea.

Huh? The Lions have a good chance against any team.

I think that was a automatic audible because the Chefs only had 10 defenders.

Old time Lion fans will remember the punter Jim Arnold calling this audible when he was punting from his own end zone. It was known as Mayday.

The Bills should fire McDermott and hire Belichick.

[froot loops]

I read some rumors that if Belichick got the job down in Atlanta, that he was getting the band back together. That means Joe Judge, Matt Patricia and Josh McDaniels. If I was Buffalo, I wouldn't want anything to do with that.

[dpatnod]

Yeah I thought I heard he was going to Atlanta.

[Mainevent]

Apparently Blank wants to hire Belichick but the front office is not fully on board - probably over the amount of control but could also be about re-configuring the Patriots south.

[chemiclord]

Now, with all that said, I do think the Bills should reconfigure their coaching staff before its too late.

Froot's noted a few times that especially on offense, there doesn't appear to be much of a strategy; it's pretty much jump on Josh Allen's back and hope he can make enough backyard football plays to win. Problem is, backyard football only goes so far, and Allen is simply too reckless and unobservant to make the critical crunch time plays reliably. Whether that's simply because he can't, or that he doesn't have the structure and guidance to do so, can be up for debate.

[froot loops]

Yeah the rumor is Belichick does not want McKay to have any say in personnel.

These rumors if they are true suggest maybe you do not hire Belichick. He may have reached the stage where he is so set in his ways that he can't hire new blood. That happens to coaches, I saw it at MSU with Dantonio, he was simply unwilling and even worse unable to find young coaches to augment the staff.

The Leroy Jenkins description of Allen is genius.

The Leroy Jenkins description of Allen is genius.

Yeah. I'm stealing that one.
