Something very funny to me that Brady gets so much crap for coordinating a top 5 offense with horrific weapons, and the defense just keeps skating by lol.

The GIF signal has hit the skyline!!! Captain Delete-a-GIF will be here to save the thread in a jiffy

When multiple opposing players state after a game that they knew exactly what was coming, that’s a problem with the OC. When an opposing coach admits he was shocked at the lack of protection given our QB, that’s a problem with the OC. When an older WR comes off an ACL and has a phenomenal year and we couldn’t or wouldn’t get him involved while he was healthy, thats a problem with the OC. There’s a pattern here.

I think that's the most healthy attitude when it comes to Cooks, especially in our "everyone eats" philosophy. Maybe a dozen catches, 200 yards and a TD or two would be realistic IMO. They key will be when those plays come. Last season Amari Cooper didn't make big plays week in and week out. Heck, there were a few weeks I forgot he was on the team. But he made plays in some key moments. That's what we need out of Cooks. A few key grabs at the right time and it's a successful signing IMO.

The truth? His honest opinion maybe.

The Bills are 5th in points and 3rd in yards with literal garbage cast offs at WR. Is the expectation for Brady to command the best offense in the NFL with Brandin Cooks as a starter?

It takes our pathetic defense about 2.5 quarters to figure out how to stop the run. In the meantime they get bullied and put the team in a hole field position wise and on the scoreboard. I expect these guys to get completely run over today and then mope around in the second half. Last week houston repeatedly missed wide open wr and I don't think that will happen today. Today kind of feels like the day the season falls apart to me. I really hope I am wrong.

It’s not just the injuries to key players. It’s the lack of gameplanning taking into account those injuries on both offense and D. If we just protect with 5 men with no chipping when we have 2 starting OTs out, Brady shouldn’t get back on the plane. We need a gameplan that emphasizes Josh getting rid of the ball quickly, which he’s been very reluctant to do this year. That doesn’t mean spamming mesh 6 straight times while our tackles get smoked and Josh gets battered. How about some RB screens? How about a draw or 2? Quick slant? You know, Football 101 basic crap to slow down a pass rush. Is that too much to ask?

While I understand the effort, I’m like 99% sure Cooks is done in the NFL. Theres little downside to bringing him in, but I’m not really expecting anything.

versatile guys all along the line. No one who is good at anything just average at a bunch of things. That’s how you do it.

I enjoy Joe Marino. There. I said it.

The thing is, as much as he needed an attitude adjustment, I am just not sure the physical talent and killer mentality are in there. A fire under his butt isn't going to make him run any faster, improve his footwork and route running, or be able to create separation at the top of routes either through deception or physicality. A lot of that stuff you either have in you or you don't. And until he can prove to get any type of separation down the field with consistency, teams aren't going to respect him and I haven't seen anything to this point that's encouraging outside of a couple great jump ball catches (and even then, he's been worse at contested catches than he was projected to be as well). He couldn't do this stuff in college and the NFL is just an entirely different level. Didn't see it then, don't see it now. But man, we really could use him to be serviceable at least. We'd all love him to turn into Anquan Boldin overnight, but it's more than between the ears, focus, and not missing meetings to get there.

I don't see that change from Joe. Still very sensible. He's always been ultra low on picking Bills or big wins. Guess he wants to maintain cred in that locked on group. Does not want to seem like a homer.

I have a theory that Joe Brady falls in a rather unique coaching paradox. Both paths I see result in him not being here next season. The first option is things remain the same the rest of this season and possibly playoffs. We make an early exit and he is replaced in the off season. The second option is he gets things fixed. The Bills hit the playoffs red hot on offense and go deep in the playoffs. He would then likely be a hot commodity as a HC and likely cash in. The line between genius and madness is often razor thin. We may not know if he is the problem. But the more prudent question to ask may be...is he the solution? If not, we need to move on.

What, really? His takes are great. If anything I think sometimes he's too much in "homer" mode, so it's great to see him actually have legit criticism of the organization

A lot of talking heads saying this is must win for Pittsburgh... I'm not so sure. They have the four spot right now. Baltimore is going to lose more games too. I don't really see it as oh so urgent for Pittsburgh, especially how crappy Baltimore looks.

the bet i put on the offseason was bills/rams.

Agreed…only with the might.

Looking like Kincaid is out ?

If the Patriots make it to the Super Bowl I think that might actually be even worse than if the Chiefs went back again

So you’re fine with continuing unlawful actions and lying about it. And then acting as an apologist for bad actors when your argument fails. Murder is not justifiable

Will they? You don’t think this team will have injuries today and the rest of the year? Injuries have been the only consistent performer for the Bills this season.

Joe is one of my regular podcast listens. I also love Pat Moran on talking Buffalo to get a more emotional fan based take. What I think Joe does very well is understanding a team’s weaknesses and how to attack them. He was dead right about how to attack the Atlanta D and what to expect, while Brady did the exact opposite and got destroyed. Same with Houston. He was banging the drum about Houston’s defensive ends and the need to keep running the ball to keep them from teeing off, and again Brady did the exact opposite. He’s not a savant, he gets a lot wrong, but he’s pretty straight forward in how he justifies his opinions. You can agree or disagree but you’ll know the why. I think Joe is getting salty because he doesn’t understand why Brady develops the game plans he does because they don’t attack an opponents weaknesses. For pure post-game enjoyment listen to Pat Moran and Joe from Queens after a game. It’s a fun rant when we lose and cathartic. Pat will come back the next day with a more measured take about what he felt went right or wrong, but the post game when he’s losing his sht after a loss is all of us.

Except, it's really not more times than not. I will concede the point of a team loses their starting QB it can derail a season. If a team is missing a couple OL guys or a few from their secondary or so on there are ways to make up for that. It's what almost every other team in the NFL does. It happens multiple times a year to most teams. Yet somehow other teams can overcome. The Bills don't look like they alter plans much when missing a starter. They just expect to plug in a backup and play. That's often not how it works. Good coaching staffs adjust their plans according to guys that are missing. The Bills simply do not for the most part.
