Yea. Dorian wouldn't see it if you ran it 5 times straight. If he can play run and hit football he is a playmaker. If you make him think after the snap he is screwed.

Great post, using facts and excellent reasoning here, along with very good writing. So, no contest here. The guy had said the same exact thing about running backs just a few months ago that he is now saying about wide receivers! And with the same kind of shoot from the hip, facts be da*ned, bizarre reasoning to 'back' his ideas up. Now, 'never mind', it's the wide receivers who should never be payed! Your "for a tremendous offense" comment will likely send all of the rest of the bashers into another fit, of course. Shoot, the Bills may have the best offense in NFL history this coming season, after having the best in the NFL last year.

As is most of the time, I wanted to reply, but you summed it up excellently, sir.

We were at that Vikings game in the endzone where the kick hit the top of the cross bar then bounced over. We won in OT with a long pass to Peerless then the FG.

I’m still waiting for these dumb ret@rded leftists to point to just “ONE” thing the Orange menace said that was racist.

He makes Tampon Tim look sane.

And had a terrible OL. If he gets an top end OL play he can still be a menace. As I said,a big if.

Look at all that fake ANTIFA literature that doesn't exist! 😂

Talk about an unhinged lunatic. Maybe your (MAYBE) scum hole San Diego insane asylum was peaceful, but make no mistake…… YOUR SIDE are the violent azzholes who should be shot dead like the dreks of society they are. They contribute nothing but violence, yet Trump and the right wingers are the violent ones. Grow a brain and grow up, you nutbag lunatic sissy.

Your typical loony leftist.

Ha! Ya see? That’s what I get for going to Europe for a couple of weeks.

Josh only has one😲

Need consistency from the DL (looking at you, Oliver and Rousseau). The good for 2 games, meh for 2 games routine has to end. Benford to finally stay healthy in the playoffs. So it's a personnel issue, which means that it's on Beane?

I'm responding to this and your earlier comments about the vet playing only if all things are equal. I agree with both comments, but I think it's important to understand what all things being equal means. In McDermott world, the best players and the guys who get to play are the guys who execute their assignments correctly play after play with very few mistakes. Being better doesn't mean simply being physically better, which is your point about Bishop last season. McDermott's defense depends on everyone executing, because each of the defenders is relying on each of his teammates to be in the right place. In the case of White, he will be" better" then Hairston if he executes the defense correctly 19 out of 20 times and Hairston executes correctly 9 out of 10 times, even though Hairston may be able to cover more ground than White. This is true because the coaches can adjust assignments for the entire defense to make up for the fact that the cornerback is slow, but there is no way to adjust the defense for random mistakes that leave a player out of position. So when you say if White and Hairston are equal, White will play because he's a veteran, that means in my mind that Hairston has to learn to play the position as flawlessly mentally as White does for him to be better than White. It doesn't matter to McDermott that Hairston can cover more ground, just like it didn't matter to McDermott that Elam had better physical attributes than some other cornerbacks on the team last year. And that, as you said, is why Bishop didn't see the field a lot last year. That's why I think Whites chances of starting are better than a lot of people give him credit for. Once White learns how the defense has evolved over the last year, his execution in terms of reading what's going on on the field and making the right decisions will be more or less flawless. That's what made him so valuable to McDermott in the first place. If he's playing and offenses are targeting him deep, than the Bills will adjust safety responsibilities and defensive calls to take care of that exposure. Yes, it weakens the defense to make those adjustments, and you'd rather not do it, but McDermott won't play a more physically able player who makes mistakes in his reads and decision making. I think Dorian Williams and Milano are another example of the same thing. My view is that Williams is a better player than Milano physically. He's got more speed now, and he attacks the ball better. However, his decision making in past protection is not as good as Milanos, and his overall execution of the defense is not as good, play after play. So Williams sits behind Milano despite his physical superiority. Part of what makes McDermott a good coach is that he is very clear to his players about this. Bishop understands today, and he understood last year at this time, that if he wants to play he needs to fit into the team concept of the defense more or less flawlessly. Understand what's happening and make the right decisions quickly or you don't play.

Sounds like good genes! Take good care of yourself because it sounds like you’re in this for the long haul!

Yeah another good example though Edmund’s was still clear preferred starter and with Dorian he was the preference after Milano got hurt.

Kelly had one of the most beautiful releases i have ever seen. Loved how he always stood tall in the pocket. An amazing QB and a great time to be a Bills fan

HOAX. Good lord.

HFD! My 87 y.o. Father is coming over. A full day of hearing how tough it is for him. I mean I get it. He can only ride his bike for 7 miles. He can only walk 3 miles a day. He recently started to wake up at night to pee. He doesn’t wear glasses, hears fine and just dug out a 100 ft. hedgerow, clears and snow blows his 130 ft. driveway, cleans his 1600 sq. ft. house, it’s pretty much spotless. New car every 3 years, drives everywhere. Doesn’t bemoan being alone. …..and tell him he’s fortunate? I don’t dare. (just to add, my brother, sister and myself are definitely fortunate)

Just the same people who voted Harris on the streets protesting. Rest of the people just relaxing knowing he’s still here for 3 more years and then Vance elected after that

I think there was already a thread about this, be prepared to be judged lol

Same was true of 'Nard Dog himself his rookie year. The 1 game he started (that close loss to the Jets) did NOT make me optimistic when McDermott announced an MLB competition between Bernard, Spector, and Dodson (Williams was never in it, and Klein fell out rapidly if he was in at all) But he came out his second year and Did That Thing. And Williams was OK last season - not Milano but OK We'll see on Bishop but there's a pretty strong history of defenders being Lost in Space in McDermott's system their 1st season and doing much better their 2nd. Lord knows we need him to.
