Holy christ. Wtf is in the water up there in Buffalo.

Week 2 we were down 10 at the half to the Jets. Bills scored 14 to take the lead in the 3rd, 24-20. But what happens? Our defense sucks. Give up another rushing TD and 37 total points to the Jets. 37-31 final

100% on board.

And Smith has played 2 more games and is worse across the board in every figure minus passing yards.

Exactly. In 29 games started with us, 7200 all purpose yards and 47 TD's.

The TT contract wouldnt put us in cap hell. 20ish highest paid QB out of 32 teams is cap hell? What would you consider Dareus? Joe flacco is the 2nd highest paid QB next yr. TT would be exactly at 20. Below Jay cutler. I honestly dont know what people complain or argue about anymore. http://overthecap.com/position/quarterback/2017/

Ok, now go look up the same numbers for every QB in the NFL and report back to us. Throwing out a number with no point of reference is useless. 9-8 in games where we score 25 or more indicates the Defense/ST cant carry their weight. Top 10 in scoring over 2 seasons. We score enough. Offense is 1/3 of a team.

Why dont you look it up yourself instead of creating an imaginary argument that cant be objectively proven without a small army of analysts looking at every Game every QB in the NFL has played in their careers to account for your subjective stat. Go look up the info yourself and report back to us.

Correct, we need to improve on that. However, as has been stated in numerous other posts, there is very little correlation between 3 and outs and TEAM success. The Patriots, Giants, Dolphins, Broncos are all worse than us in that regard (yes, the Patriots rank below us); and we're within 1% point of Oakland, Titans, and Lions. 4 of the Top 5 teams in the category didn't make the playoffs: Redskins, Saints, Panthers, Chargers.

Pretty much. The chiefs are well coached, limit stupid plays and penalties, and make big time defensive/ST plays. We dont. Thats the difference in a nutshell. Goal #1 is to imrpove the coaching.

I know I sound like Doug Whaley in this thread, but this is how close the Bills are to being a perennial 10-6/11-5 team if we stay the course on offense, improve the defense, and play smarter with better coaching. Since 2015, the Chiefs are 15 - 1 in games where they score 25 points or more. Five of those 16 games were 1 score games. So the majority of their wins when they score 25 or more end up being blowouts. Since 2015, the Bills are 9 - 8 in games where they score 25 points or more. 6 of our losses (75% of our losses) in those 17 games were by 1 score. We're 15-17 in that 2 year stretch and the Chiefs are 23 - 9. Only looking at these games, had the Chiefs done as badly as us in such games (say they go 9-7), they would have about the same record as us during the same 2yr stretch.

Yes, they should.

Ive heard people pine for Jim Bob Cooter and the modern offense that he runs in Detroit. A modern offense that heading into week 17 ranked in the 20s in points scored. With Stafford at QB. Stafford accounted for a whopping 3 more TD's this season than TT with TT playing in 1 less game. Cousins and his 5000 yards passing finished 8-7-1.

Gotcha. I just dont view it as a tool though. Its a reality. Hes either injured or not. He saw/will see a specialist.

Wait so just to be clear, you think TT is faking his injury?

Bad look if youre a HC candidate. Just my opinion of course.

Doug whaley doesnt know what Russ does and the reporters dont know what Whaley does.

Apparently nobody knows who is in charge of what at OBD. From outside looking in, its dysfunctional. Perception is reality unfortunately.

It's amazing McVay is only 30. He's a guy that will be coaching soon enough; but perhaps he needs a couple of more years as coordinator in order to mature. Shanahan is 37 and has been coaching in the NFL for over a decade. I can see Shanahan really wanting the Denver job.

You're a ray of sunshine I want us to take bpa. Dont care of the position. Could be a RT for all i care. Cant miss though.

I like Mcvay

Lil donte?

Lmao

Its Tom Brady. Theres only one of those.

Agreed.
