They wouldn't have gotten anywhere in the playoffs with Orton anyway. Here's to hoping they nab a decent QB in free agency.

Only the most douche-baggy of fans talk shit to people after such a critical loss. Alasdair's team has been destroying my hopes and dreams for a decade, yet you don't see him in here giving me shit when the Bills crap the bed for the season.
Laughing about the playoff drought is like laughing about wide-right. It's not "funny" and it would get you an asskicking anywhere in Western New York. Have some class. "Good try. Better luck next year" suffices.

Who dey baby tomorrow night is about to be the turning point of Andy Dalton's career and the way the world views the Cincinnati Bengals. This is our year with or without Vontaze Burfict. The Broncos are about to get shown up tomorrow night then were going to the Super Bowl. I am feeling it this year. Really I suppose tomorrow night os irrelevant it will come down to the last game against the Steelers but either way who dey

At least now I can cheer for your Cinci. They were a "must lose" for the Bills chances but now I hope they embarrass the Broncos.
gm, feels bad mang. and dwe is a football twit.
pats clinch home field advantage. that's what a real playoff team looks like dwe... not praying for #6 seed.

Did the Colts forget there is one more week before the playoffs start? What an underwhelming game they played.
Glad to see the Steelers winning games they are supposed to. Next week v Cincy should be a great showdown for the AFC North.

Pack Lions moved to afternoon game.
Packers are favored by seven. This seems kinda high to me.

You know im pretty happy to have manning for qb, but i cringe everytime they take the field against a good team. I feel that if brady was qb, with these weapons i would be much more optimistic. Or aaron rodgers. I feel like manning doesnt handle pressure well.
Would keapernick ever go to buffalo? Doubt he'll stay in sf without harbaugh.

Harbaugh stays kap stays
Orton sucks god I was so happy to see orton sitting on the sidelines pretty much In tears
Thinking about gm in his club with his face in a piña colada saying "hey were still better than the chargers "
We played without wood head,Mathews,Allen
4th string center
Rivers had a bad back imagine if we had wood head and Matthews for most of the season
Now if we can do alittle healing and go into kc and win
Feels good mang
Ali hasn't talked shit about the bills who cares it's just a game
But this kc game has me really
Nervous

It's already a 100% certainty that Harbaugh is done in San Fran after this season. It's public knowledge.
I'm sure Kap would come to Buffalo for the right money. After taking a closer look at the 2015 possibilities in FA or trade, then looking at the 2016 QB free agents, I'm now pulling for the Bills to make a bold move and offer someone a huge contract in 2016 to try to steal them from their team. The following players are free agents in 2016:
Eli Manning, Big Ben, Phillip Rivers, Sam Bradford, Ryan Tannehill, Andrew Luck, Drew Brees, Russell Wilson, and Nick Foles
I wouldn't mind the Bills offering something huge like $25 million a year to steal Rivers, Luck, Roethlesberger or Drew Brees. As unlikely as you may think it would be for any of those guys to jump ship to the Bills, money talks. It would make them the highest paid QB in the league. Chargers want to match that offer to keep Rivers? Then the Bills should offer him $27 million a year. No I'm not kidding. Whatever it takes. Rivers and Brees would be the most likely to take the bait. Luck and Ben would be a huge longshot.
For the other QBs available in 2016, all the Bills would have to do is be willing to pay more than the teams trying to resign their QBs. You'd have to think out of 8 teams there has to be at least ONE that won't be willing to vastly overpay to resign their QB. It's the type of bold and unconventional move the Bills need to do to become a playoff team imo. They've had stud players at every other position at one time or another over the past 15 years and none of them got us to the playoffs. It's time to blow some serious cash on getting a QB, even if that means letting other good players walk to make cap room.

You you even dare offer $5 for Ben I will personally travel across the Pacific and cunt punt you GM.
49er's back office should be all shot if they get rid of Keapernick after shafting Smith

Peyton just doesn't have the arm strength for these bad weather games at this point in his career. The broncos are going to have to lean on there running game if they are to make another SB appearance. Does anyone know when cam newton is a free agent? Someone told me this year but I haven't seen any talk about it.

Nice win by Cinci. Manning may quietly be having his last season as a player. We'll see how the playoffs go.
More on my hunt for a competent QB for the Bills: After researching some prospects' contracts and situations, I'm thinking Drew Brees would be the best target for the Bills to go after. The Saints are still paying him a hefty contract Through 2016(Around $20 million/year) which would be fine if they were doing well, but missing the playoffs this year is pretty bad after making the NFC championship last year.
On top of that, he's 35-years-old and has already been franchise-tagged twice in his career, so they know that even if he plays out his contract they can't franchise tag him(this gives him huge leverage over them) again to keep him there because that would require a 44% pay increase as per the collective bargaining agreement. There's no way in hell the Saints are going to pay what will then be a 37-year-old QB $28 million for a year if they're not making the playoffs with him. Hell they probably wouldn't even pay $28 million to franchise tag a a QB 3 years younger who DID get them to the playoffs. That's like 20% higher than the highest paid QB in the league right now.
If they're smart(they are), they'll start looking for his replacement after this disappointing season and then will try to trade Brees to a team like the Bills while his value is still high.
Watch for the Saints to draft a QB in this year's draft. They could then sit and groom him behind Brees next season, and if they have another dud season, look to trade him at the end of 2015 before his last contract year.

The Saints made a lot of moves this past offseason to "win now." Huge signings like Jarius Byrd(LOL) and franchise tagging Jimmy Graham was always something everyone knew was going to put the Saints in cap hell in the near future, but they backloaded contracts and massaged the numbers to push the salary cap squeeze down the road a little because they felt they were in a position to win NOW. That obviously didn't happen this year. Now they're going to be in for a rough ride.
