  • Robert Mays sits down with ESPN’s Courtney Cronin to discuss how many teams can really win the Super Bowl for 2024-2025. They talk about the no brainers, the teams with the best paths, who could make a jump and those that might get stuck on the outside looking in.

    Trusting the Jets as "no-brainer" contenders, but not Buffalo or Houston, feels so weird as we sit here in July.

    One thing that is really frustrating in the bills debate is we talk about kincaid as if he will become prime kelce or sharpe or Gonzalez next year and the offense will look great because look at what they did at the end of last year without utilizing diggs as much but fail to realize just because they didn’t use diggs HE WAS STILL ON THE FIELD AND TEAMS HAD TO RESPECT HIM when you loose your number one prime example is the falcons when julio went down and they expected ridley to be the guy his numbers took a huge dip even last year Ridley was a number two so idk about how the bills will look next year i gotta see it

    @mmsL125 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

    After the playoff game the criticism of the bills was their playmakers weren’t good enough, they replaced everyone but the TE and RB and now it’s they’re unproven, we’ve just seen a team do this and win the Super Bowl two times in a row. Gabe Davis was an outside receiver who couldn’t win a contested catch and Allen was better when he wasn’t looking at diggs 95% of the time. They have the second best player in the league and will be a contender until Allen retires. The Jets!?!? Can they get to .500 before we talk about a Super Bowl

    • @josephpayton7522
      @josephpayton7522 23 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I thought the criticism of the Bills was that they suck when it counts, and even when they don't suck, they're never good enough. I don't think it has anything to do with talent. I'd mostly blame Josh's leadership if anything.

    • @mmsL125

      @@josephpayton7522 maybe nationally because “Josh’s leadership” means nothing and is an easy take to make without really digging in to what’s happening. Locally the initial take was Allen is playing out of his mind but the playmakers are letting him down, I think Robert and Nate talked about something similar during the recap to the game too

Cites the lions almost beating SF but not the Packers, buffalo "losing pieces" when all they cut were a bunch of washed old names and barely lost to KC with linebackers signed off the street that week, tired lamar tropes, overlooking the eagles historic collapse and kellen moore's offense not being fit for Hurts especially without Kelce to make all protection calls at the line for him etc. Yikes
