Based off what?

Saw all I needed to see from the first team O.

I think this year we see the total collapse of NE. NE has done Jones no favors with coaches or surrounding personnel on O. I mean if that team goes 8-8 and Jones has 4,000 yards and 30 TD’s, maybe he should be considered an MVP.

I am trying to remember, Was it M. Williams for Skelton originally?

I agree and then started thinking, “what winning head coach is a great interview during the season?”. Some are entertaining because they go on rants like Saban, but hardly any give much up during an interview. Beane on the other hand offers some great insight into the teams direction once you began to see the patterns of info shared and moves made.

I was speaking with an NFL Alumni earlier this morning. He said none of the guys this year belong in the hall. He mentioned Terrell Davis as another guy who had a questionable resume.

Maybe stash him on the PS and he is the backup for Gilliam this year?

He actually praised a player in the post game thread. I had to rub my eyes and read it again to make sure.

He probably would have been solidified on the roster if he could stay healthy. He has flashed potential each preseason. Let’s see how Crowder plays the next couple of games, it could come down to those two for the last spot.

Bryant is this years Zimmer for me.

I like the idea, not sure Beane and McD will pull the trigger. I also could see Blackshear replacing Jones for teams/emergency RB. Every penny counts.

Yea, it seemed odd to me as well.

Elam’s strength is man coverage. That showed tonight. Benford has good experience playing zone from college. Both will play a role this year it looks like.

Yes, he is replaces Tyler Matakevich next year on a much better salary. I think Spector plays the first 6 games this year for Smith and if he is doing well, the Bills have a tough decision to make.

Beside the pick play, in which Tasker made it out to seem Elam was responsible for the blown coverage, what other plays was Elam late on or out of position?

Nice play by the rook

The problem with putting anything around the stadium has to do with where the stadium is located. Who is going to drive out to Orchard Park when the Bills aren’t playing? Limits possibilities for anything. This was the major Con to building the stadium in Orchard Park

Short term maybe, but I think it was time for everyone to move forward

I like Davis, he might be one of my favorite Bills. Seems like a humble guy with a very healthy approach to life. I’d love for Davis to get 1300 yards and 15 TD’s. He has had two very similar seasons so far, outside of the KC playoff game. Like all of us, I hope year three and being WR2 means Davis receives increased opportunity and makes the most of it. My initial post was responding to someone saying DK set the floor for Davis. Right now that’s not the case at all.

Davis will need to have a good couple of seasons for DK’s contract to enter into the discussion during negotiations.

Not really. Julio is always hurt. He was barely ever able to practice his last few years in Atlanta because of injuries. It didn’t impact his play as much because he and Matt Ryan had good a well established connection. When it began spilling over to missing games, he was traded to Tenn. I put the over under at 9 games he plays in for Tampa.

Jeesh, that’s some serious vitriol. Did Joe do something to you?

When Jones was called upon to win games last year, he could not. Jones has an average, at best arm. NE isn't doing him any favors with talent at WR or coaching. McDaniels is arguably a top 5 OC, as much as I do not like the way he presents himself I have to admit that, now who is he play caller and designer of the offense? If NE was any other franchise everyone would be raising eyebrows at how things are unfolding in Foxboro, because it is Belichick, he gets a pass. Let's see how much longer that is the case after they miss the playoffs again.

I wonder if more levels is how they plan to get fans closer to the action. Higher up but not so far back?

Couldn’t happen to a better organization. This shows the difference between the Bills and Chiefs FO. Bills traded a similar pick for a WR and got a deal done before it became a problem. This is a problem that is not fixed by sliding your LG to LT. Then you have a lesser player at two spots. Stick to your guns Big Man, someone will pay you and don’t play for the tag, you are better than that.
