Terrible cap management-trying to keep the band together... Only led to a soft, complacent team

Bad contracts. Signing C players to B contracts and B players to A contracts. Bernard, Benford, Oliver, Knox, Samuel, Shakir, Rousseau, Milano and Epenesa are all overpaid for their production or lack there of.

Remaining schedule is not exactly easy. I only see one sure win (Jets) the others are all very losable, especially if Rodgers and Burrow are playing At Pitt (50%) Bengals (75%, 50 if Burrow plays) At NE (40%) at Cle (75%) Philly (40%) Jets (99%)

On the one INT that Josh threw Cook was WIDE OPEN in the flat to his right and Josh decided to try and get more and threw into a 3 man coverage which got him the INT . I think Josh is trying to get to much instead of taking what they are giving him or he just isn't seeing the entire field as he should . That and couple it with Brady not using the weapons he has available like Ty , Davis, Knox, and others he's got plenty of fire power to turn to he just doesn't call their number when needed & since they got Kincaid Knox has become for the most part a forgotten piece of the puzzle . I'd like to see what Dabol could do with this offense now that he is with out a job even though Brady has had some decent success I think Dabol might be able to open it up a bit more like he did when he was first here . I hope if they make a change at OC they consider bringing Dabol back .

They have an easy out after 2027 too. I just don’t see a lot of value in $20M+ 8 sack guys. I’d rather have a $5M 6 sack guy.

It all falls on Beane. It's his mess.

McDermott is a good coach, but he'd be out. Trade for AJ Brown. No more tweener, jack of all trade - master of none defensive draft picks. This is an outdoor, cold weather team. The defense should reflect that.

This was Beanes main job in Carolina, so I'm sure he's pretty close to it

Everything has an expiration date and the current O-Line has been together for 3 years. In NFL, that's like a decade. Dallas a few years ago with Ezekiel Elliott had an O-Line probably better than the Bills (where McGovern was a backup). about 3 years in, it's over. I feel the Bills' O-line is at that stage and we are likely see changes this off-season. It is hard to win it all in NFL. Everything has to lineup. The Bills have a Allen and Cook in their prime but no complements from the defense. Looks like they are investing heavy into defense now and likely next year as well but looks like the O-line will change so we don't know what it is like for them next year and Cook is going to be 27 next year, probably 2 more prime years.

It without a doubt sounds to me like he's blowing off the poor job he and his linemates did. Never owns up to it. Doesn't own up to the big false start that turned a 4th and 1 to a 4th and 6 on the last play. His immaturity and lack of self awareness have been why he has been my second least favorite Bill of this era.

I blame the rebuilding process.

Well the world may not end, but this era Bills have never won a road playoff game. (If I'm not mistaken)

The cap situation for 2026 is a huge problem, most likely the reason why Beane did not want to trade 2026 first for Waddle Knox- 17m Milano-11m Dawkins-25m Samuel-9.7m Johnson-11.5m You have a mediocre TE Knox making 17 mil and expect to have cap space to pay a #1 receiver, not sure who they expect to improve without tanking for a least one season

Is Jim Overdorf still doing it?

I agree. Before the year started we were talking about tie breakers with Balt and KC for top seed, but we are actually talking about tie breakers to get in the dance with them Weird year

Overdorf still does the contracts, and his boys do the spreadsheets. Ultimately all decisions are Brandon Beane's.

Exactly. And... he realized he was more than just a Quarterback.

Hey, having a 2nd place schedule next year would be refreshing. And I still think they make the playoffs this season.

Im gonna go with no.

Its basically what happened to Andrew Luck too. He got beat up for so long that football wasn't fun anymore

So who is currently filling this role? They need to take a hard look at his efforts. Or is Beane just ignoring him and doing whatever he wants, to hell with the cap?

Consider we have the h2h tiebreakers of teams like Baltimore and KC that might be looking to leap us gotta think we have that in our favor. Of course it will depend how we play last few weeks.

I am a huge proponent of an honest inventory being absolutely critical in order to make changes, and this is.....not exactly honest. DIons job is to keep the QB clean. He didn't, and that means he shouldn't be talking about anything or anybody else unless he leads with "I didn't hold up my end of the bargain, and it made it more difficult for everybody else". If that is the sentence before the Gabe Davis comment, then that doesn't bother me. But it's not, so I assume he believes he did a good enough job. He was 1/5 of the group that let the best player in the league get the shirt kicked out of him last night.

Anything can happen, this is the most wide open the conference has been in some time. That being said, the most probable scenario is the Bills finishing as a 5th-6th seed and they’ll have to win this thing from underneath.

As long as the mandate is to hire the new coordinators from outside the organization I'm in.
