Best chance to get rid of Mayo.
Get blown out in all 3 remaining games.

If I were the bills, i would intentionally lose last game to pats to keep Mayo as pats head coach
The Bills may need a win in the last game to take the top seed from KC.
 
It is gonna be COLD (prob around 10deg), and the Bills played their last 2 games in domes. Pats just played in PHX, so it won't be quite the equalizer we'd hope for. The team whose balls don't freeze off will take it.
 
In 2001.. Bill and pioli had to sign 23 FAs.. this team feels like it needs EVERYTHING except a QB.
Yeah, they added a lot of talent in 2001.

The large increase in the cap last year hurt the Pats. They had money to burn but nobody to spend it on.

Yes! That 2000 team had stalwarts in law, Malloy, Bruschi, mcginest ok defense. Drew at QB, Troy Brown, Smith at RB. I'd say peppers, gonzo, Tavai, Barmore, Bentley are the stalwarts on defense with this team. They have 140 plus this off season.. going to need a full injection of playmakers on defense and offense. They have an all-pro on STs in schooler.
 
Any given Sunday and all but the Bills have some serious questions to answer if they can’t win an important home game against a Pats team playing out the string.

I expect this game to be over at kick off.. the sooner the season is over the better for us.. get the coaching correct and get TALENT in here! We bad 20 plus FAs in 01.. we may need at least 10-15 new players all over the roster.

Bills have a strong run game plus Allen’s legs. Pats don’t run the ball well anymore, and it’ll be hard for Maye to try to “mount a comeback” if it’s cold as heck and the ball is frozen.

There are no "good losses" the rest of the way.. the sooner this season ends the better. Love watching Drake..but this staff sucks.. the team sucks. It took the season to end this way for ownership to visibly see they made a big mistake!

They might need that game for HFA. Still in play.

Without Bentley around, Tavai has been totally exposed. He is not a starting caliber LB in this league.
 
Is it weird that I’m kind of excited to watch them get blown out tomorrow?
Right there with you. I'm looking forward to this game more than any except the season opener and Maye's first outing.

Couldn’t they just deflate the ball a bit so it is softer?



I’ll show myself out.

Pats can pull a Colts and claim that Buffalo’s balls were too soft. You know, since it being 10 degrees will have no effect on them. I’m sure Josh Allen will get suspended in 2025 over it after a legal battle
 
Please drop a 80 burger on us . That would probably get the entire operations canned . And probably make us go get Joe Brady from the bills. I wanted them to go after him when he was canned midway from panthers, we just sat too long .

We need to purge all vestiges and remnants of bill era and start afresh. No point holding back few here and there. Luckily Brian belichick will be heading off to UNC. And doubt any assistant of repute is gonna join us here.

Though I have been in 2 minds about firing Mayo , only because i am not sure if anybody of note will want to come here as HC, I think we need to bite the bullet and can Mayo. Because we need better assistants and with Mayo we just get a$z-- instants
Bills could drop 200 points on us and Mayo will still have a job unless Jonathan pillows Bob after the game.
 
O/U Bills Punts: 0.5

This made me laugh out loud.

Maybe they will see up front the genius of Joe Brady and Jon can convince Bob it’s Tom Brady when they are writing up the HC contract.

The quote is BOLD above is a Boston Sports Media fake talking point that some PatsFans swallowed as the truth. I am not the swallowing type of guy like 1960Pats who likes to swallow.

Why didn't we sign Xavier McKinney in FA? McKinney, now at the Packers, has 7 picks and 50 tackles as a FS (defensive player). If McKinney was at FS, Dugger and Peppers could play a hybrid SS/LB role as originally envisaged. Or look at Saquon Barkley signed by the Eagles (offensive player). He might be the NFL offensive MVP this year, but 1960Pats says there was no players to burn money on in 2024 FA. God save us from the BB haters and the Kraft lovers.
 
Stevenson, Gibson game. I think the will let Maye run around this game. We loose it in the 4th. Can't get off the field. Barrymore loss is another torpedo in the hull.
