What is this thread? The Bills are a PASSING TEAM. Have been all year. The only GnP team that I can even think of is Tennessee.

I never said ground and pound identity teams win championships. The point is that teams need to be able to run the ball period. Buffalo hasn’t done it all year and it cost them today.

Ah, ok. I thought you were one of those "panthers north" guys who think they're just like us ... or whatever insanity they spew.

Joe Mixon just rushed 20 for 105 yards in the same game. 
 

Tell me I’m wrong with some substance. 

He was running against Buffalo’s defense. The Bengals defense tightens up in the playoffs. They did it last year too.

Nah, even the Bills haven’t outmediocred us as of late. We are our own breed.

That Buffalo defense was a shell of what it started the year with but even that being said, they were able to run the football when it counted.

My point was the Bills RBs were having trouble running against the Bengals defense. I don’t know how much CMC changes that.

My point is that they’ve had trouble with running all season. Their run game is abysmal and Allen and Diggs have bailed out their offense all year. 
 

I think CMC would change a hell of a lot but that wasn’t my main thesis for discussion.

lol damage control 

 

“ignore what happened today, the thing I want to be true is still true”

What’s not true about the Bills run game being abysmal? 
 

Reading comprehension is a lost art in this place.

    • I don't know about you but I have been a life long Chiefs fan for the past 4 years.
    • Sure there's a ton of transplants in Colorado now. But as far as Denver in particular goes the Broncos have also been around for 65 years. Someone moving to Denver is going to be far more likely to become a fan of the Broncos and even attend games versus someone moving to Charlotte and the Panthers. Like I said it's not just one single thing with us it's multiple factors.
    • He's definitely getting better. It's fun to watch.  I've been getting killed for this take, but with the current state of college football, it just takes more time to develop a quarterback. I don't think it's a plug and play position anymore. I'm really not sure if it ever was. NFL offenses have always been substantially more complex than the college game, and the college game has simplified even more in recent years. Many college teams do not have a physical playbook anymore. That's just not the national football league.  Are there freaks who have success from day 1? Yes, without question. But so many of those guys are runners, and so many of those guys tail off. Is Bryce ever going to be Josh Allen? Probably not.  What I am seeing is a guy with complete command of the offense. He's checking into things at the line, making adjustments, and making timely throws.  He goes to David Moore a ton, because Moore is a consistent route runner. Bryce knows where he is and when he should be open. I think the guy with the "super processor" needs to be comfortable in the offense in order to do the "super processing." He doesn't have elite arm talent, and he is small of stature, but if he makes the smart play consistently, and he's willing to throw the ball downfield and not make mistakes, like he's starting to show, he's going to be a starter for a long time in this league, and it's not a position I'd spend draft capital right now.
