I think the NFL got the best of both worlds in these matchups.

The two old dogs and the 2 new dogs (if Mahones is ok).
They couldn't have written the script any better.

Lots of people will tell you what they think about you and what you shouldn't and should do. Not everyone's thoughts are worth consideration. Don't take criticism from anyone who you wouldn't also go to for advice.

I was very clear about what I said. If you're not capable of understanding that or accepting it I dont see why you feel the need to constantly start arguments.

I just posted what you posted as it isn't based in fact or reality and shredded your comment. How that is making things up is the part I don't understand.

Tell you what - I'll go easy on you from now on even though you said you weren't going to be a fan of this team anymore.

I would root for the Bucs and pretend that Brady isn't there, honestly. My hatred of the Bills franchise trumps him.

I’d be rooting for a sinkhole taking down the stadium in the middle of the night and the game couldn’t be played.

I will hate it but I will root for the Bills. Mostly because their fans started donating to Lamar Jackson's charity wishing him recovery and their weird meme of jumping through tables.

Would prefer Bills vs Packers as I like rooting for teams that have never won. If the Bills win it all, we can defeat the defending champions at least twice in 2021.

Packers are 4-1 in the SB. Tampa is 1-0. So of the two NFC teams you should root for Tampa if you want a different SB champion. Anyway, I personally love to see the 0-4 for the Bills (especially 4 in a row LOL). I don't want that to change so my preference is KC vs. Packers, and I want to see Rodgers win another before he retires so I'm going for GB.

Why hate on the Bills? They've been in the cellar like us. I hope the AFC turns into a powerhouse.

Honestly ive become such a big Josh Allen fan... i think they win next week and face the Packers in the Super Bowl..thats not what the NFL wants, seeing as Mahomes is the face.

We have got to figure out a way to beat the Bills.. josh allen is what, 5-1 now against the dolphins? That has got to change

Bucs vs Bills would be the nightmare scenario for me. I couldn't root for, or be happy with either team winning. I'm hoping it's a Packers vs Chiefs Super Bowl though, a rematch from way back in the day. I'd be okay with either of those teams winning. A Packers vs Bills game would be great as I could root against the Bills -and hope the game comes down to a missed Buffalo FG that goes wide right....

A terrible play call, terribly executed.

The NFL doesnt give a rat's ass who the face is as long as its pulled from an acceptable place.

If Allen became the new face tomorrow the NFL really wouldnt care.

They actually care A LOT due to market share. They know Brady at home in the Super Bowl would create all kinds of storylines and hype. They also know that KC has a much higher viewership rating than the Bills. So that's the game they're hoping for- KC at Tampa.

It's what most fans are hoping for, too.

Sure they can hope for teams, but anyone who is the "face" of the league is going to drive up that market and sell jerseys at a similar rate.

I'm talking about individual players not so much favorable matchups for viewership.

What I'm saying is more like...how popular were the Patriots before Brady? When you have the face of the league on your team you assemble an entire second fanbase of casuals who start following that team and raise its market.

I'm rooting for Tom and the Bucs next week. I have come to realize it isn't Brady that I disliked as much as it is Bill and I would love nothing more than to see Brady back in the Super Bowl with a different team the Year after he moved on while the Patsies sit at home.
My #2 team has been the Packers, a distant 2nd, but as time has gone on I have developed a strong dislike for Aaron Rodgers. So I am all about the Bucs this time. Plus it would be cool for the Bucs to play in the Super Bowl in their own stadium. It's never happened before.

It really doesn't matter who wins this game though, I don't think either of them can beat the Chiefs or the Bills.
And I hope it's the Chiefs!

"Although we are capable of great acts of kindness, history teaches us that we sometimes need saving from ourselves – from our recklessness or our greed. God sent into the world a unique person – neither a philosopher nor a general, important though they are, but a Saviour, with the power to forgive...

I would expect my other Phins fans would concur.

As long suffering Phins fans we could always root for the NFC team every year the Pats made the Super Bowl, but with the prospect of another AFC East Team emerging as contenders to potentially play the geriatric Bucs with Tom Brady is just too troublesome for me to even fein interest.

I doubt this will happen as the Packers and Chefs should be healthy favorites. But then another painful element enters the fray as one CHAD HENNE!!!! could be the only thing keeping the Bills out of the Super Bowl.

It's just too much, at this point. :001_rolleyes:

Always root for the Dolphins over anyone else. In the absence of that...

Always root for the AFC team over the NFC team...save the Patriots. NEVER root for the Patriots.

I'll never root for an AFC East team, and that includes Indy since they were part of the division when I was younger. Nothing makes me happier that a Phins win and losses by those other 4 teams. And when those 4 teams play each other i root for a tie.

I'd be surprised if the team's bean counters don't put a bug in the owner's ear about playing him this week. About to begin a 10-year half billion dollar deal might make management leery to see their prized asset get hurt again. We've seen too many players find recurrent concussions to be a continuing occurrence. By the time he quit, Troy Aikman was collecting concussions without his head being struck.

The last time I rooted for a divisional opponent to win the Super Bowl, because they'd never won one, they ended up getting 6. Not making that damn mistake again. To hell with the Bills. I picked Green Bay earlier in the season as who I thought had what it took to win the Super Bowl, I'll stick by that and pull for them, regardless who wins in the AFC (rooting for the Chiefs hard). I don't believe the Chiefs or the Bills would have a chance against Green Bay's OL...Rodgers should have a field day, should they get there.

And I hope Marcia throws 3 picks, at least. Though I have to admit, he did better this year than I thought he would. He looked terrible toward the end of 2019. Then again, having an all-world receiving corps had quite a bit to do with that.

Brian Flores when asked about tanking: “Again, no we’re not (tanking). We’re going to try to win every game. I think that’s disrespectful to even say that.”

Well Mahomes is listed as out for the AFC Championship game against Buffalo. Looks like the Bills stand a decent chance of making it to the dance

Mahomes is not listed as out. I don't know where you received that info. All indications are he passed the concussion protocol and will play.
