Ya gotta’ watch Wyoming’s Josh Allen, who led the Bills to the playoffs. It had been a long drought for Buffalo. Go Bills

I think there are many who feel the fun has completely abandoned the NFL, or vice versa. Perhaps nobody more so than us ex-Redskins fans.

Point taken, but the “fun” I’m referring to is not from the League, it’s from a college football fan from the least populous state, cheering for a QB from a non-Power 5 conference, who led a small market team to the playoffs. Don’t know enough about them to say with certainty, maybe not since Jim Kelly

I think it's a great story for all the reasons you just pointed out TMats.

Should be a fun weekend of football. Chiefs don’t play until next weekend, so I can enjoy these games without stress...

I was a Patriots fan for years. Seeing the Bill's on top of the AFC East with 13 wins is almost surreal. I hope the Bill's go far in the playoffs but I won't be watching any NFL (or any Pro sports) this year/season.

Huh, didn't think the Bills were allowed back into the Super Bowl yet, based on their performance the last four times they were there. Big Grin

I know - I can still remember their last loss. Bruce Smith was being interviewed after the game and was crying because they lost 4 consecutive Superbowls. He was perhaps the greatest defensive player to never win a Superbowl.

The Bills will be down three TD's at halftime if they play the chiefs.
For a big guys Allen throws the ball side arm, even worse than Rivers. No modern qb that i know of has been a hof type qb that does that. He is a nice story but will never be a great qb imho.

I've got mixed feelings about this game. I like the Bills even though my boys beat them in '92 & '93. Also, I have a personal connection to the Colts because Frank Reich is from my hometown & his father was a coach & metal shop teacher at my high school, while I was there. He (the dad) was a solid guy & not to be messed with. I respected him greatly.

you certainly have some opinions, humble or otherwise. I never noticed that Allen threw sidearm, even at Wyoming. I did some research. They’ve been working with him on footwork and keeping his non-throwing (left) arm in tighter to his body. His accuracy has improved a lot from his second year to this year. No mention at all of his throwing motion.

I don’t know if the Bills even make it to a game against KC, but they just won their first playoff game in 25 years. If the Bills get bounced, I’ll never see your great Chiefs, ultimately, I still don’t care about the NFL.

While I think there are a lot of good, honorable NFL players, I refuse to watch anymore. Too much showboating, penalties, replays, controversy and disrespect. I hope it goes away - at least it has at my house.

As a long time Pats fan(going back to '78) and watching the Pats play the Bills a couple of times a year, I knew last year that Josh Allen was going to be a star....that kid can play...wish we had him.

Josh Allen is a class act and a beast of a football player.

I am an old Houston Oilers fan, (yes the largest choke recorded in playoffs) but hope that small market Buffalo goes all the way!
Before Jim Kelly was a Bill he was a Houston Gambler first!
He was always a class guy from everything I know.

I haven’t and won’t watch the NFL (with all their BLM / Marxist-Democrat party support) but hope Buffalo wins big.

I'd take that bet and also Allen is one of the few quarterbacks in the league that can throw just about any pass in the book...Mahomes being another
