I wonder if we will ever find out what the real story was behind the Waddle negotiations. I know many of us have been operating under the assumption that the sticking point in the Waddle trade was that Miami wanted a 2026 first rounder and Beane was unwilling to make that trade. I have gone back and forth on this myself. Part of me maintains that Waddle is a proven player and almost certainly better than any player we could have acquired late in the first round this coming April. Also, he would be a shot in the arm to our struggling passing game and would help us NOW. But, it is worth asking -- are we really just a single WR away from the Super Bowl? What we saw on the field against Miami on Sunday would certainly suggest otherwise. And, again, do we really now that Waddle was available to the Bills for a 2026 1st round pick? From what we gave heard from reliable sources, Beane proposed a 2027 #1 and a 2026 #3, which was the best offer on the table. So perhaps Beane felt like any better offer would have been a case of him out-bidding himself. What we don't know is how serious were the negotiations. Did the Dolphins offer a counter? Were they ever seriously interested in working with the Bills -- or trading Waddle at all? Or, as some have speculated here, was there a deal in the works for the reported parameters -- but Miami pulled out at the final hour? We also heard rumors that Beane inquired about Olave and was told flatly that the Saints were not interested in trading him at all. Likewise, on trade-deadline-day, he was reportedly steadfast about trading for G. Wilson but the Jets were unwilling to make a trade in division. There was also talk of discussions between Beane and the Commanders about trading D. Samuel, which thankfully were never consummated. As many have said, all GMs make bad personnel decisions. It is forgivable to miss, for example, on the Keon pick. The bigger issue is coming across smug like you know so much more than the interviewers/fans and treating them in a disrespectful manner. I remember the same thing happening with T. Donahoe after he fired Gregg Williams -- he had a press conference in which he was irate and spoke condescendingly to the reporters and fans. He never overcame that misstep, and a GM that Bills fans had previously applauded was soon viewed as a villain. He was gone not long after. If I were a PR man for Beane, I would suggest that he go back on the radio on WGR and not necessarily apologize, but in a witty way acknowledge that they were right and that he has tried (and will continue to try) to fortify the WR position.

Some insight into some young "Christians" thinking from a conservative journalist. We've seen similar thinking on display here. https://roddreher.substack.com/p/what-i-saw-and-heard-in-washington

Looks like Morgan plays like Megan

I was too young to have man boobs back then!

yes I think you could easily argue A and C or B and C etc.

This s*** show over Kelly is just as funny as the circus that surrounded Utenn back in 2017 when they fired Butch Jones. For those who don't remember, here's a snippet: : https://www.si.com/college/2021/01/18/tennessee-jeremy-pruitt-fired-fulmer What that article doesn't mention, after Currie pulled Schiano's offer, a long list of coaches refused UT's advances. Currie finally got Mike Leach to agree to become the new HC. Meanwhile, Fat Phil Fulmer was working behind the scenes to get Currie fired and have himself installed as the new AD. Currie was fired before Leach had a chance to sign the contract. Fat Phil told Leach to go pound sand, and dropped hints he wanted to appoint himself as the new HC. UTenn Board said "No". Watch it all the way to end:

One band I have never seen... Orlando in April looks to be the ticket here. https://www.littlefeat.net/tour?fbclid=IwY2xjawOBuUBleHRuA2FlbQIxMABicmlkETFHNjJLWWtUWGtYazlrU0owc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQQMjIyMDM5MTc4ODIwMDg5MgABHvQh4VxQkqenJZwP-B4AfJJeSso6Ep6vBa8fou_wCESL_iRs4TFbpIMYDyTk_aem_bu4hSWjo0LWeAcRkv08Lcw

Well said 👏

Take NE. if they lose at least you'd have that

Once a kicker gets the Yips, its over. This guy was great and then all of a sudden fell off the cliff. Maybe it was all the deviant behaviour but he seems to have lost his mojo. Mike Vander jagt is a good example. The guy was superb kicker then wasnt.

Give it a month and see if you can still say that.

I agree with the part that Allen has no #1 receiver. The rest is ridiculous imo. So by your views, Allen is an attention *****. Is just here for money/endorsements. Is pissed James Cook is great. Is jealous of Maye. Dips (FYI those are smelling salts). Has no leadership quality. One of the more bizarre posts i can recall.

They’ve mastered the art of exploiting the brain cell shortage in their fan base.

Let’s get him up for a game first. The guy was here forever but now needs 2 months before he’s elevated…. I know he was banged but hopefully we don’t McDermott this thing up. You wanna send a message? Inactive Colman and call up Gabe and Hardman

He's made almost 20 million in his career. He may have wanted to wait for the right situation. He has excelled on the Rams and Chargers but struggled on the Panthers and got cut from the Falcons. He knows that fit matters.

You know the covers on toilet seats in public washrooms? That's what they meant by 'covered'. The covers are handed out as you enter the stadium.

Not to mention the most obvious of all J6 over arching happenings: The notion that a bunch of middle aged, unarmed morons were able to gain access to the Capitol building of the most powerful government on planet earth, then simply mill around inside for a bit, only to turn around all on their own in order to be home by dinner time. Insurrection!!! 😂

He was probably tired of having the same discussion with me as well, lol. Admitting to having a bias is the most difficult thing to do, or call it blinded Fandom. Josh has discussed at many press conferences this season about "trusting his feet", mechanics and maybe he hasn't said he isnt seeing the field, but hes alluded to it and the all-22 doesn't lie. Thats also not to say this WR crew is underwhelming and Bradys playcalls have been scatter shot too. OL has let Josh down too. Its alot going wrong, at times, and its the inconsistencies that weve seen Josh fix himself that just isnt happening this season. So we are stuck with a horrible 1st half vs Miami, and pick to start 2nd half. Falcons and Pats game were the exact same. Its hard to admit, obviously harder for some, but Josh isnt playing like his usual self. I could careless about some statistic saying he's completed 70%, great --- how about we look at stats from 1st half of games where we've played awful as an offense, Josh included. 33% of games this season, our offense has let us down - Joshs stats sure look great after garbage time in Miami. But he was something like 8 of 13 for 68 yards in 1st half (great compl %, so what tho?). Its been a combination of things, but Josh is the one we hold to the highest standard as his ability and past performances have shown hes capable --- we need him to get out of whatever funk hes going thru...for than just 1 week, we need consistent Josh to have a shot at the division.

I didn’t realize Tremaine went by Terrell back in your day…

Use Coleman sparingly in the slot. That's the most snaps I'd give him if Gabe and Palmer are good to go.

Not saying that the offense doesn’t deserve to be torched by media and fans … … but this is the same idiot who asserted two weeks ago that the Bills don’t have a wide receiver problem. He’s in the same category as Nick Wright. That category is “PURE CRAP.”

Whole state sounds like an episode of 'The Dukes of Hazzard', without the altruistic undertones. 🤨

This is the first time I've seen this angle. From this image, it looks like none of the lower bowl seats are covered and even parts of the upper deck isn't covered. Something isn't right here, because they said 60% of seats would be covered. Not according to this photo.

They're far better than i thought they would be record-wise, so i should eat some crow for that. Having a veteran head coach definitely has helped them win more of these close games as the season has worn on - 5-2 in 1 score games. Only the 1 primetime game so far, the 4th place schedule gets them a few advantageous matchups (NYG vs. PHI for buffalo, LVR vs. KC for buffalo, Tenn vs. Hou for buffalo).
