Curious how much the control of the 53 has shifted since self proclaimed President of Hockey Operations, Terrance Pegula said "I consider myself a football man". I hadn't quite thought of that until your post and you stated "previously". Worth noting that Lindy has more than hinted twice in the last week or so about his lack of control of his roster. This is full tin foil hat theory/conjecture at the moment. But worth noting since they have the same owner. My take on Pegulas success with the Bills v Sabres has always been that it's been McDermott and Beane vs Terry and that keeps Terry from ruining everything. If McBeane are struggling and Terry is weighing in we could see a lot more turbulance.

People weren’t reading into whether they were standing next to one another at training camp or comments in press conferences. The Slay/Ingram fiasco is akin to when JD McKissic bailed on a handshake deal. It’s out of Brandon Beane’s hands, nobody with a brain is pinning that on him.
-
This is a good idea, because it avoids the committee nonsense. I don’t think it would stop the controversy. You’d end up with weak geographically based divisions, and excellent teams would be left out. How do you form a northeast division for example? No one is worthy is certain regions. I think the SEC and Big Ten need to form a super league, and the rest can compete in a separate playoff format.

Ketanji Brown Jackson: Embarrassment

Trump hates anyone who knows more than him on any given subject. Outside of MAGA that is about 99% of the population. -
Their tight ends should be able to replicate what Gesicki did and that is a worry for me. Just like in the Bengals game, we need to be effective in stopping the run.

Damn these white people

Whites? He is concerned with the global whites population? WTF? This dude is beyond mentally ill. -
Yeah I just think that in your haste to make a comparison to Bills RB seasons of years past you inadvertently illustrated just how little context your point had. Cook is having an exceptional season but Josh Allen(the franchise's all time rushing TD leader) is one of the greatest force multipliers for RB's in the running game in the history of the NFL. The Bills organizational identity to this point in their history is clearly running the ball. It's the one area where the standard is HIGH. Cook and this offense is the latest iteration. They are averaging .7 yards per carry above league average. Same as the 2015 NFL leading rushing offense(which didn't even HAVE a 1,000 yard rusher). But the 2016 NFL leading rush offense averaged a ridiculous 1.2 yards above average and had McCoy putting up 5.4 and also Gillislee leading the NFL in ypc(5.7) and 3rd/4th down conversion %.

Same was said about Diggs, Daboll, Allens breakup, you never know which one of these stories is true.

todd started following Is there Beane/McDermott Tension???

How quickly threads devolve into negativity and whining.
-
This is honestly precious. A ton of projection and stretching innocuous instances to create a story out of absolutely nothing.
-
I think it's kind of both. Beane is always kicking tires. He seems to be obsessed with depth. Considering how many injuries we seem to suffer, this is a good thing. But he knows he needs game changers and has had some whiffs both in the draft and free agency.

https://thehill.com/homenews/campaign/5640305-higgins-gonzalez-miami-mayoral/ Democrats have wrested GOP control from the Miami mayor’s office for the first time in nearly 30 years in Tuesday’s closely watched runoff. Democrat Eileen Higgins, a former county commissioner, won what her party saw as one of the last remaining tests of their grassroots energy heading into next year. Higgins defeated Republican Emilio Gonzalez, Miami city manager, who has been endorsed by President Trump. Miami is party of Miami-Dade County, which went red in 2024 after being a blue stronghold for years.

This roster is a disaster however…..

It is helpful, but it never ever in 2025, balances out a total absence of talent at WR! Try and name one Lombardi winner who relied on TEs and a RB. HASN’t happened. The Bills rely on one superhuman person, who must every, freaking game, put on his cape to overcome the terrible deficiencies of mgt. in constructing the Offence! Unless he is running wild to both run and buy time for the ZERO Separation Squad and Cook is doing his break through thing, they are dead! -
You can find it on various episodes of the locked on bills podcast where Joe Marino speculated on it locked on bills episodes that include Jerry ostrowski and Jeremy white. He references some statements mcdermott has said in various pressers and that he said you barely see the two together(training camp. It's just speculation reading into statements from mcd and I think Beane as well in pressers. Could be true OR it could be two guys at the top of the org working together 10 years, with immense pressure they put on themselves, and the pressure of finishing the job. After 10 years, with this kind of expectation and money that there are bound to be moments of disagreement and tension. I think if there wasn't at times after all this time etc etc I'd be more concerned. It's not like rexy throwing Roman under the bus, or Greg williams and their OC at the time, actually trying to get rid of the other lol This

The passing offense generated 3 TD's vs the Bengals. But realistically, Allen was 2 of them completely. Which is what we get from our passing game. When Allen has been boxed in or the run game is not working, which was the case in Patriots, Falcons, Texans, we just don't have a whole lot. It's turns into screens, check downs, short TE passes. We literally have to be perfect, which usually doesn't happen because these defenses are usually above average. This notion that since we are productive as a whole we are fine is failing to look at how that production is happening and how it fails. The missing component of our offense is on time intermediate and downfield passing. We are solely dependent on Josh to create that right now.

This could be your bread and butter... When a football coach says bread and butter they mean their staple... What you do best... Execute in your sleep I learned from a very good coach once that you perfect what you do well.. so you can execute it in any situation... Rather than trying to do stuff you're not great at The other team could know what you're doing but if you execute it to perfection still won't be able to stop it The trap pass... And we have a terrific running game and great tight ends We opened the game versus Cincinnati with this... It's going to pay dividends You can't sell out on the run if they'll hit you with this... If you sit back on this James Cook will go for 7 years a carry Then instead of crossface you start going up the seam... You can run this concept out of multiple formations and it will pay dividends This is One singular concept that can bring the bills One step higher and I'm glad to see it

No, he said top four. We’ll pick teams tomorrow. I’ll take his four. You take your four. Well ask any GM in football if they want Allen, Mahomes, Jackson and Burrow or any four you name. You’re pointing to three, four, or six week stretches where this guy struggled or that guy struggled. That’s an obvious truism that doesn’t address, let alone negate, his point. ”Tom Brady is the greatest. Wait, Eli Manning beat him in a Super Bowl.”

Quit your day job, become an NFL GM, and then put together a roster that EVERY fan on earth agrees with. Good luck.

No one for Josh to throw to yet the Bills are ranked 11th in passing with 2,937 yards. The top passing yard team, Dallas, has 3,581 yards. A difference of 644 yards. Dallas has 109 more passing attempts, most likely due to being behind way more often than Buffalo. So, the nobody's Josh has to throw to are doing pretty damn well.

His last 10 games includes 3 games over 100 yards. But in general his average performance seems to be like 3 receptions on 5 targets for 40 yards and a TD every other game. Not exactly huge output. There is a very good chance he won't break 1k yards this year.

There’s something different about McD this season…
Billsfed1 replied to eball's topic in The Stadium Wall
He’s definitely grown as a coach. When Sean first took the team over, he was as serious as a heart attack (and still kinda is in some ways) but last last 2-3 years, he’s really started to loosen up some and the players do appreciate that. The local reporters seem to appreciate it as well. What really caught my eye is going back to last year on our run. In some of the post game press conferences, guys like Dion were saying that he’s letting them be them now. It’s not all work no play like it was for the first 4-5 years in his tenure. Him doing snow angels with Josh after the 49ers game…the cracking of jokes to the media (never used to do that, Stone Cold McDermott) but he’s become now what Belichick was in his later years. He’s striking a nice balance of fun and being serious. This version of McDermott is perfect, and it’s the sweet spot that Reid has been in for years. You can’t go all the way to the other side with it now, because if you do that you have Mike McDaniel. Even tho he’s a likable guy (and I like McDaniel) he’s never winning a Super Bowl…he’s just not. I personally think if McDermott bags a Super Bowl, his perception will change somewhat. Folks still think guys like Tomlin and Harbaugh are great coaches, yet they only have 1 title. McDermott knows how to win games, he’s been very good at it. Yes, ultimately you’re graded on how many championships you win, fair or unfair…but the guys on pace to be one of the best ever in terms of wins if he coaches another 15 years, basically the rest of Allen’s career. I’m very pleased with what he’s done in Buffalo with his opportunity. He’s brought stability, a winning culture and a perennial contender to the area…and it wasen’t easy. Guys like Gailey, Marrone and Ryan all had a shot at it. Each of them had sone success in the league to get their opportunity, be it as a coordinator or head coach…and I even liked a couple of those guys, but none of them figured it out…but a young Sean McDermott did. No coach is perfect, but I like ours. -
And that's why it's crazy to think our coaching is terrible defensively because of that lol Those conditions literally 100% favor the offense and defense is always playing catch up in those conditions And Joe is literally the closest thing to a Dan Marino.. he is by far the best pure passer from the pocket in the NFL... Now that doesn't mean Josh isn't a better player but that encompasses everything that makes Josh special... There's nobody better passing from the pocket in rhythm then Joe Brrrr And he's playing with nothing to lose so it's all on the line versus Buffalo Bottom line back to back drives we took the ball away I expect us to have a really good game against the Patriots defensively... Drake is my fantasy quarterback and I don't want to start them in my playoff matchup despite him being terrific all year I think we will have some looks for them
