Pokes fans, who you pulling for Sunday?
Josh or Logan, oversimplified….. it’s a tough one to choose.

Bengals will get rolled if they play like they did against Ravens. Both didn't play well. That being said, I hope the bills win but I don't have a great feeling about this gameragtimejoe1 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 6:30 am Yes, I know, paying division teams in playoffs is always hard, but Bills will get rolled if they play like they did against Miami.
Josh has to be better at protecting the football especiallyin the red zone. Overall, Bills haven't been playing great consistently in my opinion.
Hoping Bills win but I'm not sure it matters with KC likely looming.
I don't disagree. Bills have as much upside as any team and may be the most dangerous team when they are clicking. Allen's turnovers and Miller getting hurt I think are a couple big factors involved in the inconsistency. On the flip side, Allen playing lights out is when they look like contenders.laxwyo wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 8:27 amBengals will get rolled if they play like they did against Ravens.

I want Bills because QB is so visible. Some mural of Josh holding up the Lombardi at the HPAC would do a lot. I don't know how big this window is for the Bills. Josh's salary really starts hitting after this year. They need to resign Jordan Poyer and Edmunds I believe. Maybe they can keep it together like Chiefs. Hope so.
That's how I generally am.Wyovanian wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 9:27 am I'm not an NFL fan, zero loyalties, but it doesn't stop me from being an observer of the game. I don't care who wins, I just want to see both Allen and Wilson have a great game. Kind of like the kids in "The Sandlot" who don't keep score, it's kind of a pure love of the game without the zero sum emotionality of picking a side (for no real reason).
All that being said, I'll be rooting for the Jags, with Wingard and Muma, and being the massive 'dog, to make the Chiefs EARN whatever happens (win or lose), for Gipson to give Dallas' offense fits, and for Epps to play a big part in the Eagles' effort...
I think the only team that can survive an Allen lights-out game is KC...and even then it will take an equivalent game from Mahomes.ragtimejoe1 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 8:58 amI don't disagree.

And that playoff game, where both went lights out, Mahomes had more than just Kelce to catch for him. Josh has basically every WR that has helped him since college on his team, plus Tre White back on defense (they REALLY missed him there).307bball wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 11:33 amI think the only team that can survive an Allen lights-out game is KC...and even then it will take an equivalent game from Mahomes.ragtimejoe1 wrote: ↑Sat Jan 21, 2023 8:58 am

Man..when you lay it out like that...I can see why they looked unfocused for the last few games. The Hamlin think alone could have made the guys sort of lose that edge.LanderPoke wrote: ↑Mon Jan 23, 2023 10:02 am I am not sure what to think of the Bills. I was thinking they need a major rebuild, like firing both coordinators and getting rid of many players and doing a major refresh, but on the other hand they have faced a lot this year. Bills just looked tired and "done". No fire, no enthusiasm, no joy. I think the Hamlin thing finally exacted its toll, along with the insane snowstorms that killed a fair number of people, the weird travel, the cancelling of a game and moving it to Detroit, the mass shooting in buffalo, the punter/rapist thing, the Miller injury, the Hyde injury, I think there's been more adversity too I am not mentioning. Perhaps it was all just too much to overcome. I don't know. I do know the lines, on both sides of the ball suck. Once Miller went down, the Bills had zero pass rush, and the O line can't protect worth a damn. Blow it up? Or just try to patch the shaky lines and 'run it back'? Tough choices ahead for the Bills.
