Tanking in the NFL is a bad strategy.

There are no “sure-things” with any player in the NFL draft.

3 games in? Let's crown their asses NOW. Of course I'm good with it if they beat the patsies twice and knock them out of the playoffs.

I think the sleeper in the draft will be Jacob Eason the Huskies QB. This guy reminds me of Rothlisberger. He's got an NFL caliber arm but more importantly the accuracy that must be there as well. He's not a running QB but he's a pocket QB that can move when he has too to extend a play or get a few yards. His accuracy on the move is also impressive. He's 6'5" and about 235lbs.

So yeah if a team tanks for a particular player they are foolish. Besides they have a good QB if they simply give him a team instead of a bunch of scrubs to play with. They could get another guy like Baker who if you take away his first read he's toast. As a spread offense QB he's never had to read complex defenses and the Rams proved he can't. Believe it or not Rosen is a better QB than Mayfield right now. At least he understands how to read defenses if he has the time to do it. That's why IMO Rosen has a higher career ceiling than Mayfield who still needs to prove he can learn to read defenses. He's in his second year and is still relying on first reads and off schedule throws which is exactly what he was last year.

The problem with the Bills is still at the QB position. Josh Allen still hasn't shown consistency with his accuracy. The deeper the pass the more problematic his accuracy becomes. I don't see the Bills beating the Pats as long as they have Brady, especially with Allen as their QB.

If the Bills were in the NFC South or East or even AFC North or West, I'd agree, they have a shot at winning the division.

But they're in the AFC East.

So...no.

Although, when a defensive team from the AFC East plays the Pats (or it's Miami in Miami...usually) they give the Pats a hard time. Might not win, but give them a game. Jets did it, Bills have done it and like I said, Miami in Miami.

But win the division? no.

Not that we ALL wouldn't love to see that happen...

Remember 1995 season? Rams were ham and egging their way to a 5-1 start, and were facing the team from Satan’s spawn at home? Thought we had a shot at the division and then....
Well, I see similarities to the Bills vs those Jack Hashes from Foxborough

I can't see the Pats losing more than 3-4 games. They are just that good, which sucks balls. Bills are definitely better, but not to that level. Freaking Pats haven't given up a TD yet. :(

I think that well-coached tough-as-nails Patriots D will knock fledgling Bills QB Josh Allen right into next month!

I would love to see the Pats get knocked-off their lofty perch by the upstart Buffalo Bills (hell, I grew up there on the border, Niagara Falls, Ontario).....but alas, I don't see it happening!:cry:

No doubt. Facing the emperor doesn't usually go well for young QBs lol.

Edleman may sit this one out. BUF's futile chance increased some. The biggest problem is I don't see Josh Allen having a good day. Allen looks bad against bad defenses. This Pats secondary is truly elite.

Patriots could be vulnerable, a weakened Patriots offensive line vs above-average
(Bills defense creates havoc) defensive front seven.

The LEAST the Buffalo fanbase can do is come up with some most excellent signage in the stands directed at that tiny little Kraft.

They better not miss out on that golden opportunity.

Don't screw that up Bills Fans.
