Top 5 QB's since 2000. There is roughly a 40-50% success rate in getting a quality QB.
Trubisky 17-2 – Too early to tell
Goff – 16-1 – Looks promising
Wentz – 16-2 – solid
Winston 15-1 – jury is still out
Bortles – 14-3 - Way too high
Luck – 12-1 – Good player, not a once in a generation QB as originally dubbed
RG III – 12-2 – Bust
Newton 11-1 – Won a super bowl. Perennial MVP candidate
Bradford 10-1 – Injury prone. Close to a bust.
Stafford – 09-1 – Decent QB, 3rd rounder at best in hindsight
Sanchez – 09-5 – Bust
Ryan – 08-3 – Solid
Russell – 07-1 – Bust
Young – 06-3 – Had a great start then fell off a cliff. Would rule a bust overall
Alex Smith – 05-1 – Decent QB, 2nd rounder at best in hindsight
Eli Manning – 04-1 – Probably a Hall of Famer
Rivers – 04-4 – Perennial all pro. Potential Hall of Famer.
Palmer – 03-1 – Solid QB, Injuries really hampered his career.
David Carr – 02-1 – Bust
Harrington – 02-3 – Bigger Bust
Vick – 01-1 – Great running quarterback, huge offensive weapon
Yeah. I have no excuse blowing the Cam Newton comment. Drag me out to the street and shoot me. I’m done.

Not convinced... accuracy and field vision is lacking. Struggled against tougher competition. Recipe for a bust. Easy to play against air.

3 years ago our quarterback situation was - EJ Manuel (bust), Matt Cassell (journeyman at best) and Tyrod Taylor (a 4 year back up to Joe Flacco, who only did mop up duty in NFL). I say our situation is currently better to that with Peterman (2nd year man who had a really rough outing), McCarron (a 4 year back up to Andy Dalton, who has 4 games under his belt) and an undrafted rookie.

Ok - After all of the craziness that has occurred in the past few months, we are in a lot better of position than I previously thought. Below is a comparison of effectively last year's lineup vs. today's. We are slightly better going into the draft and are still pending 5 quality picks. Outlook - Positive
Last year/This year
QB - Taylor/McCarron - Wash to slight downgrade - McCarron is an unknown - prob won't start
RB - McCoy - unch
FR - DiMarco - unch
WR1 - Benjamin - unch
WR2 - Jones - unch
TE - Clay - unch
LT - Dawkins - unch
LG - Incognito - unch
C - Wood/ Groy&Bodine - Losing Wood hurts, but a lot of people thought Groy was going to upstage him anyway. Bodine was a starter in Cincy - wash
RG - Ducasse - unch (draft pick?)
RT - Mills/ unch&Newhouse - wash at worst
DT - Williams
DT - Washington/Lotulelei - upgrade
DE - Lawson/Murphy - wash to upgrade
DE - Hughes - unch
OLB - Alexander - unch
MLB - Brown/Milano - I am a big Milano fan - slight upgrade
OLB - Humber&Milano/Humber - slight downgrade (fill in the draft)
CB - White - unch
CB - Gaines/David - slight upgrade
S - Hyde - unch
S - Poyer - unch

I have been a big proponent that the league is not rigged. I am in ever constant debates with people. However, I actually agree with this guy's assessment. The NFL rigged enough games this year (not just for the Pats) in an attempt to get the bigger market teams into the playoffs. Case in point - week 3 - Detroit vs. Atlanta. The call goes the correct way at the end of the game, Detroit is in and Atlanta misses the playoffs. You rig 20-30 plays in the season and you can impact 10-12 games easy and that is all that is needed to fix a season.

This is like trying to claim that Perry Fewell (Jags DB coach for 2017) should fall under the Marrone coaching tree. The guy has been coaching for 30 years and this is the first year under Marrone. He does not qualify as growing up under Marrone.

If a man treats the other 6 months as a full time job, he would have five 8 or 9 hour days per week. I thought I would call a typical day being 2 hours working out and 6 hours of study. Say in one day he sits and analyzes two games of offensive plays. So he spends 3 hours on each game watching and studying and coming to understand the offensive plays in that game. There are about 130 offensive plays (65 each team) in a game. It might go slower at first but that gives him about 3 minutes per play to study it.
This is not a heavy workload here we are just talking about 2 hours of fitness and then the rest of a regular workday sitting in an easy chair watching football plays.
So if a man did that 26 weeks per year for 5 years, he would have seen 130 plays per day Times 5 days per week Times 26 weeks Times 5 years = 84,500 plays.
The defenses are complicated but they are not that complicated that a man shouldn’t have a pretty good idea what is going on after having seen it Eighty Four Thousand times.
And that doesn’t even count all the time they spend learning and being taught for all the months they are with the team.
When I think about it like that, it doesn’t seem like a stupid question to wonder how in the world could somebody not understand how to read a defense after seeing 84,500 plays?? (not counting training camp and practice and all that).
I am willing to bet heavy that very few, if any, quarterbacks are studying film 6 hours a day for 26 weeks of the offseason. More realistic bet - 2-3 hours/day for the week leading up to OTAs and 2-3 hours/day for the 2 weeks leading up to training camp. Total film study hours spent during offseason (my bet) - 30-45. Using your logic - this would result in ~750 plays/year or 3750 plays for 5 years. If someone were to study game film for 6 hours/day in the offseason, they would truly be elite - maybe that is what makes/made players like Brady and Manning so successful as they have been known to go the extra mile (both during the season and in the offseason).

Why is everyone concerned about the stats? There is only one stat that matters - Wins.

Top 2 picks means guaranteed success...
With the first pick in the 1992 NFL Draft - The Indianapolis Colts select - Steve Emtman, DE Washington
With the second pick in the 1992 NFL Draft - The Indianapolis Colts select - Quentin Coryatt, LB Texas A&M
92 Colts - 9-7 missed playoffs
93 Colts - 4-12 missed playoffs
94 Colts - 8-8 missed playoffs (Emtman's last year)
95 Colts - 9-7 made playoffs
96 Colts - 9-7 made playoffs
97 Colts - 3-13 missed playoffs
98 Colts - 3-13 missed playoffs (Coryatt's last year)

Too bad I no longer live in Buffalo... Being paid to talk about the Bills. Every Bills fans dream...

Not Bills... but...

I am a big Tyrod supporter and continue to be. But the process right now is broken. I totally respect this move and if Peterman proves to be better then Tyrod I am all for it. Ultimately this is a good call.

Not buying it to be honest.
10 days rest they had before this saints game. They just got owned plain and simple in my opinion
Totally agree. I would almost make the argument that the defense's inability to get New Orleans off the field kept Taylor and the offense cold and thus led to the poor performance. Below are the drive summaries. You can't win when you can't stop them... ever.
Drive 1 - 10 plays, 75 yds - TD
Drive 2 - 9 plays, 46 yds - Ended in Fumble at the Bills 9 (had it not, more points)
Drive 3 - 9 plays, 48 yds - TD
Drive 4 - 9 plays, 75 yds - FG
Drive 5 (I am skipping the kneel down for the half) - 9 plays, 75 yds - TD
Drive 6 - 1 play, 3 yds - TD
Drive 7 - 10 plays, 94 yds - TD
Drive 8 - 14 plays, 52 yds - FG
Drive 9 - 2 plays, 44 yds - TD
Drive 10 - victory formation...

He wasn't always revered, however. People forget the stretch of time in 1989 where everyone was calling for him to be benched for Frank Reich. And then there were always haters... regardless how good he played. Some people are never happy.

McBean can be summed up with this little clip from Miracle.

First of all, I trust that McDermott has made the right decision with his selection of backups to McCoy. McD/Beane have been very successful thus far in judging talent. Going into this season, everyone was thinking how bad our secondary was going to be. In 4 games so far, I have been pretty impressed.
If McCoy were to go down and the Bills were truly desperate for a running back (which I don't think they are) - give Ray Rice a call. He has been clamoring to get back for years. He is only 30 and hasn't played in 4 years (so he as a lot of gas in the tank). The guy is a 3 time pro-bowler, who if was ever given the chance to get back in the game would work his tail off. Guy made one dumb mistake in his life and has done his time. Even his wife has forgiven him.

I never said I wanted him. I just think he is seriously regretting his decision to quit.
-
Does anyone think he is 2nd guessing his retirement? Supposedly he retired as he believed the Bills weren't a contender and that he wanted to go to the Pats after Edelman's injury. 1/4 of the way through the year, the Bills are a game ahead of the Pats and are in need of receiving help. He would have been the perfect person, but i think he burned the bridge on the way out based on his Patriot comments. Thoughts?

You lost me at "Dominos".
Did someone say Dominos?

Wrong. They absolutely believe in telling other people what they can and cannot do. Leftists in general are the least tolerant of all people.
That is not what he said.
Directly no, but implicitly yes. Exact words from Alabama:
"Wouldn't you love to see one of these NFL owners, when somebody disrespects our flag, to say, 'Get that son of a B word off the field right now. He is fired. He's fired!'"
