I’m just going to go ahead and say that the Bills are winning the Super Bowl. Allen and Diggs are the best duo in the NFL and it’s not even close.

Sounds like Miami found a good one. I think he came from the 49ers so you know he is used to winning.

C’mon over VP, there’s room aboard the Dolphins train. We are an equal opportunity fan base and are always accepting new members. We’ll even overlook and support you when you disown the team, several times throughout the season and we’ll teach you how to accept and embrace mediocrity.
You’ll learn exciting new catchphrases like...
“Just wait till next year!”
“Damn Patriots!”
“Wait, we just drafted who?!”
But wait! There’s more...
If you act now, we’ll even give you this new avi to use at no additional cost to you.

I’m looking forward the that Bills/Chiefs rematch in the AFC title game!
I’m afraid that Herbert is going to be like Dan Marino. He’ll be a HOF QB but won’t get the credit due, because Mahomes and Allen will be winning all the Super Bowls.

Maybe if Herbert wouldn’t throw pick 6’s with the game on the line then he would beat Mahomes 🤷‍♂️

I love Herbert but he crumbles under pressure.

If I’m going to cheer for a mediocre franchise it will be for the Tennessee Titans 😂

Kyle Wright gets league leading win #19 and Max Scherzer gets career win #200
Fun night to be a Braves AND Mets fan!

Scherzer was pulled with a perfect game intact after 68 pitches through 6 innings. There have now been 3,687 days without a perfect game in the majors, the longest span since a 13-year drought from 1968 to '81 (4,755 days). Félix Hernández was the last to throw one, on Aug. 15, 2012.
