Virginia Governors Race
sherpa replied to Trump_is_Mentally_fit's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
Younkin has had an extremely successful term. He would have easily been re-elected if Virginia law allowed. He has no responsibility to try to salvage a completely lethargic campaign by the state Rep Party. -
Perspective Matters: The Offense Is Producing
Nihilarian replied to Magox's topic in The Stadium Wall
My take is this OC isn't calling their numbers or scheming those plays for them. What some of you simply don't get is that this OC is all about high percentage plays vs low percentage plays. This low percentage plays take longer to develop as they might include 5-7 step drop backs on deeper throws. What we saw with the Falcons was a high amount of blitzing and the Chiefs attempted to do the same thing and because this time Allen was hitting those short outs and Cook was gaining good yardage on run plays... it didn't work. Josh was sacked 3x and hit 6 times and because the run game worked and the short pass game worked it opened up some mid to deep passes. Moore caught one for 28 yards and Knox caught one for 30 yards, Kincaid caught one for 47 yards. I really don't get all the angst about finding a #1 WR considering the Chiefs have a top 10 defense and are 3rd in pass attempts allowed, 7th in pass yards allowed, 4th in passing TDs allowed. Josh Allen tore them a new one 23 of 26 for 273 yards, 1 TD and an 83.8 QBR. Which by the way is the best QBR for him ever. 10 different receivers caught passes and that is literally insane...everybody ate! And Bills fans who seem to think that this game didn't matter to the Chiefs are nuts as they wanted it just as bad as the Bills. Mahomes was contained and unable to run to make plays and he was hit 15 times. He also had the very worst QBR ever at 50.0. This game mattered to both teams and was huge. -
Value worked out, won’t deny that. I think Addison was gone by that point? I believe the next WR after Kincaid was Jonathon Minho? Yup, that was how it panned out. Not knocking the pick for one second. He’s a solid player, was just weird to give a massive extension to a TE, draft a replacement that essentially turned a high salary guy into a role player.

Bills Draft History - The Price For Shaheed
BillsFanForever19 replied to jwhit34's topic in The Stadium Wall
First off, I've said this a million times already, but the price wouldn't have been a 4th and a 5th for us. If New Orleans has the option of a 4th and 5th from Seattle or from us - they're going to take (and did take) Seattle's. Our record is the same, yes, but historically we make it further than they do and consistently pick below them. And we have a team led by Josh Allen. So for us to get him, we would have had to have beat Seattle's offer. Which we could only do with a 3rd. But beyond that, I think the even bigger issue was that it was 2 picks in the coming Draft. If it were a pick in 2026 and a pick in 2027, that would have been more palatable. But in a year where we only have 7, dropping 2 of them and only having 5 picks is rough. Especially for a guy you only have for half of a season that is more of a role player than a #1 WR. -
Win now. Who knows what tomorrow brings? For us older Bills fans especially- win now! We aren’t going to be here forever. I’ve been a huge Bills and Sabres fan since early 70s. Me and my fellow older Bills/Sabres know heartbreak deeply. Give us something!
-
WR room - Minus Amari and Hollins, Plus Palmer. 5-2=3 3+1=4. What happened to our 5th WR? I don’t understand Beanes math. Moore was pulled off the scrap heap, after Beanes tantrum on WGR. So I don’t think there was smart planning for WR room
-
Injuries are all the more reason to add to some help at the trade deadline. The AFC is wide open this year. Why not spend some draft picks and add a WR or some DL help. IMO there is too much focus on the future with this fan base. A lot of that is due to the drought years.

Perspective Matters: The Offense Is Producing
Ray Stonada replied to Magox's topic in The Stadium Wall
KC traded Tyreek at the height of his value. But ever since, they keep adding former WR1 or WR2s, trying to grab a star cheaply: JuJu, MVS, Hollywood Brown, DeAndre Hopkins, etc. Meanwhile, we traded Diggs. But we keep adding former WR3 or WR4s, like Sherfield, Moore, Palmer, and Hollins (who I miss). And it can't be a cap issue, because they have the same issues as us, and also fielded a better defense than we did from 2022-2024. And in that stretch, they made it to 3 straight Super Bowls. It's a huge difference and it means we aren't maximizing our O with Josh and Jimbo. We could be lethal like Philly in the SB--KC took away Saquon and they hit Brown and Smith way downfield. That's how they broke Spags' D. -
Sauce Gardner to the Colts for 2 1st round picks (and AD Mitchell)
Jrb1979 replied to Simon's topic in The Stadium Wall
Sure they were closer to the Super Bowl last season. In terms of winning it, the 13 second game season, talent wise they were much closer. IMO had they made the Super Bowl last year, th result would have been the same. Eagles win big. -

This is a badder song than it seems on the surface. i for one miss songs that make you think beyond your boutiful your boutiful God help us all -
You have to catch the ball for it to count History with drops A known issue: Drops were a significant drawback during his time with the Bills, with a career-high of nine in the 2022 season. Inconsistency: This history of drops contributed to his inconsistent performance and the team eventually moving on from him. Current status with the Bills Recent return: Davis rejoined the Buffalo Bills' practice squad in September 2025 after being released by the Jacksonville Jaguars.

Preach brother, Preach! This is so obvious. It really is the Emperors New Clothes. Defense is not the problem. I’m not sure which Bills team you are watching

Perspective Matters: The Offense Is Producing
Ray Stonada replied to Magox's topic in The Stadium Wall
With a running game is as good as ours, it's almost a crime not to have a deep ball specialist. It's potentially a play-action touchdown or 50 yard completion 2-3 times per game. Kincaid looks like he is dialed in and won't drop a clutch ball now. -
“A WR will never matter in the offense” except when we need a 3rd and 6 late in a game. We need WR who can separate instantly
-
A 3rd round pick will give you a guy who can be on the roster cheaply for 4 years. Wonder if the chefs weighed that against “win now” with what we have? As far as the pats, that is scary how much cap space they have. Give them a tougher schedule and they may not be as good as they are this year.
-
Except when it counts. Last two painful playoff exit takeaways- Dalton dropping the ball. Diggs dropping the ball.
-
I can’t imagine the offense without Cook. Bills passing game often looks forced and difficult. If I was coordinator, playing Bills- I’d put my #1 CB on Dalton. If there’s no Dalton, and no Cook, we have an average offense, with an elite QB being a game manager throwing bubble screens

Pete started following AFC Midseason Rankings

I think you are underestimating the Pats. They have won 5 in a row. It should be 6 in a row. Pats would have blown out Pittsburgh, but Stevenson kept fumbling at the goal line. Pats beat Buffalo in Buffalo. Pats are well coached. Josh McDaniels is an excellent offensive coordinator. Pats had an excellent draft. Drake Maye is the real deal. They have elite cornerbacks, and a very good defense. Pats quickly have become an AFC force. IMO Pats can hang with KC and Ravens- I’d love to see those games. Bills are going to have a battle trying to overcome Pats lead in East. Pats have a cupcake schedule. Tampa is one of the few teams that I think have a chance to beat NE. They play Sunday, and TB is banged up. Pats are healthy. How are the Pats so healthy and the Bills devastated by injuries, yet again?

Let's take a second to appreciate James Cook
GunnerBill replied to Buffalo716's topic in The Stadium Wall
If it is long term wear and tear you are worried about then the Bills have guarded against that. This is year 4. They are pretty much committed through year 5. But it would cost $5.4m in dead cap if they wanted to move on in 2027. That isn't a justification anyone can use to still hold onto a wrong opinion about extending him.
