Danke schön ...

To follow with another missing(crass?) point, that attire is all some fit into comfortably, particularly in crammed seating. I knew that feeling 60lbs. ago. It won’t fly with many.

Seem the same "tone" of certain responses are exactly the same through 3-4 different posters. I guess when one gets blocked, they log into another

Josh Allen isn't going anywhere. Pegula loves Daboll. Josh lives Daboll. And here's the thing: McDermott is the type of guy who could put bygones aside for the good of everyone and the goal of winning it all. He has also grown as a coach since the first time around. I would say it's definitely possible if Daboll doesn't get a HC gig this off-season. Way more likely than many think. The one to say no might actually be Daboll, not McDermott

I like this but I'm not entirely sure I agree with it. At the end of last season I would have agreed with this 100%. Now I'm not so sure. For this to be true that Allen will spend his career in Buffalo no one needs to be fired but a hard reorientation of the teams priority's from the D to the O must happen. And this includes a new offensive strategy not predicated on protecting the D and aggressive drafting and FA signings of offensive players.

Losing Spencer Brown is terrible. Bernard hasn't been playing well. We'll get over that one.

Funny - when I go back to Buffalo and we visit my MIL she always seems to have the Hallmark Channel on, and every time after I watch for two minutes I say "I hope there isn't some innocent misunderstanding that keeps or breaks them apart - and If so I hope it gets resolved in the end"

*You’re And it’s not hard to discredit someone who’s attacking a guy for his actions 30 years ago.

I think Josh needs to a bit more vocal about the direction the team is heading. Jim Kelly would've let his feelings known rather clearly

I resisted entering this thread because the topic makes me chippy I posted about this before and was mocked at the insinuation and my opinion which is this I doubt with every fiber in my being that Josh Allen will retire as anything but a Buffalo Bill. Sacrilege to think otherwise! lol honestly though Just NO, he can't leave to get a ring somewhere else. I just don't buy it. at all he has way too tight an investment in this community and he is a Bills LIFER I cant see it at all. If he ever left to play elsewhere I'd be heartbroken

Your trying way too hard. Though the family adores him part did bring a tear to my eye. How sweet.

Without Lacey Chabert, is it really a Hallmark Christmas movie?

Think it's been a problem repeatedly since 2020...OC starts out, looks amazing year 1(year 2 for Daboll but Allen really came out in 2020 in a way nobody ever saw before), gets figured out at some point early in year 2 and doesn't have the answers to fix the issues, leaves, new OC takes over...he looks great year 1 and then year 2 gets figured out with no answers and we regress.. Win totals last 5+ years: 13-11-13-11-13-11? Daboll->Dorsey->Brady The issue is we haven't hired an OC that has enough answers once their best gets figured out and they have to adjust to what defenses are doing to them.

Burrow not coming back for the Patriots game. Pats probably take this game fairly easily and maybe it’s for the best so we can focus on just getting a WC and then rest guys Week 18. As far as KC & BAL go.. Charvarius Ward just got activated, so they’ll have Ward and Sauce out there against KC Sunday. Burrow’s likely return will either be off a surprise W over NE or, with a loss, as a last gasp, do or die game against Baltimore Thanksgiving Night. Either way, if he comes back, with Chase returning, that game has juice as a possible Baltimore L. At this point, I think im just rooting for the Bills to get in and KC/BAL to get left out. Then let the chips fall where they may.

No one player can lift a team above mediocrity if the roster talent is below average. Marino, who IMO was the greatest pure passing QB in NFL history, went 8-8, 6-10, 8-8 & another 8-8 in seasons where he started every game for the Dolphins. This might actually work as long as McD allows Daboll the freedom to run the O. For Daboll it would be a great stepping stone to another HC job and a new GM can go about reorienting the Bills FA & Draft priority's towards the offense. Of course all of this would be a moot point if the Bills went on a run and made the Super Bowl this season.

The irony of crying about 'Narrative Control' on a Bills fan page, while it’s perfectly fine as long as @BillsFanNC and his bots are running the show. Anyone else? Tears

It's very possible that Beane is let go, McDermott asks Daboll to come back and take over the offense and McDermott reworks the D. The team would go get a Waddle or someone similar in the off-season and also draft a WR and maybe even sign a #2 type guy in free agency. The topic in national sports media is Allen needs weapons and everyone is dunking on Beane especially for his bullying of the WGR guys last summer for daring to question his WR room. He's going to take the fall. Nobody is really blaming McDermott as much. I think agents and "camps" are feeding info out there to create a narrative. McDermott is a rock solid human being (not that Beane isn't) that is easy to rally behind. I also have heard from a few places that he actually does want a more open attacking offense and us frustrated with what they have at WR. Where there's smoke there's fire. Beane also seems like a good guy and all, but he has unfortunately failed the team far moreso than McDermott has.

At the time they paid Knox they were utilizing his skills in the passing game and since they now have Kincaid they barely call his number so that is IMHO the biggest reason why ya'll think he's over paid but I think if his number was called as much like it was before Kincaid show'd up he'd be worth the money . I think Bosa should be brought back because when Hoecht was in those 2 games he show'd what he could do if all of the attention wasn't on him, most all of the others that you mentioned I too think will be gone and the team will be pretty much a different team next year . Samuel has been a bust for the hope he had coming in Palmer might be a bit better if Josh can develop some chemistry with him but Moore let him walk !

Thanks for posting this, Einstein. It only amplified my concerns about Brady. Our downfield passing game is probably the weakest part of our offense. Our receivers don't separate and Brady hasn't demonstrated any genius at scheming guys open. Downfield passing is probably the strength of the Texan defense. Their secondary is very good and their DL can generate pressure without tons of blitzing. So why were we watching Josh drop back, scan the field, and get clobbered? What was Brady thinking? We all knock Brady for being too conservative, but this was a game when he should have dialed up lots of runs (instead of 19 rushes by RBs versus 34 passes) and short, quick passes where the ball is out of Josh's hand in 2.0 seconds. Unless I'm missing something, it was one of the dumbest game plans I've ever seen.

That would have been more worth the watch, honestly.

Josh Allen and the players don't view it the way fans do. He feels just as responsible as anyone for losses, if not more so. He has been around sports enough to know that you win some and you lose some. Not to mention that Keon Coleman was hand picked by Allen! So was Ken Dorsey, and Allen has been a staunch supporter of Joe Brady as well. So, why would Allen feel any kind of animosity toward the organization that has given him everything he wants, including getting rid of Diggs and taking on 30 million in dead cap, because his relationship soured on with him and Diggs became a nagging distraction? Josh Allen has nothing but love for Buffalo, the organization, Beane, and McDermott. Players almost universally support their coaches.

This is a fair discussion topic. I hope Allen stays and the Bills do not have to engage in a compete rebuild. A reloading even if it meant changes at HC & GM could work for all involved. At the same time it would be a real shame if Allen never got a chance to play in and win a Super Bowl. Marino at least got to play in a Super Bowl. The rest of this season will have a huge impact on whether Allen is still a Buffalo Bill when he turns 33. If the Bills can rebound and go on a run and make it to the divisional round or better yet the AFC Championship game then a re-load would likely work without changing the HC & GM. On the other hand if the Bills implode and a rebuild is needed and Pegula doesn't change the HC & GM then Allen would be wise to start making plans for his departure this off season.

I dunno - watching the video of each sack at least it looked like no one was open...at all. Coulda thrown it away I guess but a bunch were 3rd down scenarios too.
