If we don’t turn the ball over this should be a pretty comfortable win. If it’s a repeat of the jets game it could be a different story.
Take care of the ball!

I can get the points and debate for the top 4 but nobody who watches or follows football would ever agree crowder is better than Beasley. That’s gotta be a joke right
I dont get win don’t get why everyone is so confident that Beasley is better than Crowder.. the open market decided the opposite considering Crowder got more guaranteed money (17 mil) over 3 years than Beasley got in 4 (14 mil).
Maybe if someone brought some facts to the table.

Will Hock be better than Kroft over the next 2 years? Probably not because of the transition to the league.. so if the goal is to help Allen then I don’t see this being the pick.

50/50 exactly with 1 hour left!

Not surprised after free agency. Before free agency I would have said no chance. We have to many holes to fill and the more picks the better. But we added a ton of players and don't see any glaring holes in this team. Sure I see positions we can improve at by adding elite level players but we have serviceable starters at each position. And only way to add elite talent and improve at a position is to trade up.
The only way to add elite talent is to trade up? That’s a head scratcher. We’re almost as likely to stumble on an elite player at 9 as we are at 3. The draft is never a sure bet and every year some of the best players drafted come outside of the first 5 picks.

Tyrod looking pretty good in the pocket. Looks like he's keeping his eyes down field.

So let me see if I have this right...many fans think Gillislee is easy to replace, but then explain to me your faith in Whaley, when one of his RB signings last year(Reggie Bush) couldn't do anything last year behind a very good OL?
Is this the same guy who is going to use his keen eye for talent and find another Gillislee?
Wasn't Bush 4th on the RB depth chart when he was signed? If I remember correctly he was brought in to provide a bump in the return game. Whaley has done just fine when it comes to RB talent.

I actually don't think this is a bad thing. I think getting a 5th for Mike G is more than fair value, probably a slight overpay. We can use that 5th to draft an RB and have him on the books for 4 cheap years.

1. Mike Williams : Tennessee Titans
2. Corey Davis : Buffalo Bills
3. Malik Hooker : New Orleans Saints
4. OJ Howard : Baltimore Ravens
5 Mitchell Trubisky : San Francisco 49ersBills Pick (bonus) : Corey Davis

We won 7 games with Tyrod Taylor, if you don't think Brees or Rivers can elevate us to 3 more wins, then I am not sure what you are watching.
The Chargers roster might be better than the Bills right now and they won 5 games with Rivers at the helm. I seriously doubt the Bills would have been 3 wins better if you replaced Tyrod with Rivers last year.

Just who do you think you are, speaking so rational??
Blah, blah, blah - you are missing the point.
We can SAVE MONEY!! :sarcasm:

I'm surprised that so many posters think Tyrod has hit his ceiling after just 2 years of starting. Rarely do QBs reach their peak after such little game experience. For example.. in their first 2 seasons starting:
Tyrod:
62.6% cmp
6,058 yds
7.42 ypa
37 TD
12 INT
Brady:
62.8% cmp
6,607 yds
6.52 ypa
46 TD
26 INT
And that doesn't capture the +1,000 rushing yards and +9 TDs on the ground for Tyrod.
Obviously Tyrod isn't Brady.. but he can get better, can't he? He's already starting from the point of being a respected leader and a hard worker who protects the ball and gives you a chance to win every game. If the defense improves or if Tyrod improves, this team could be in the playoffs as soon as next year.
-
He's better then ANYTHING else available. By a good margin.
That's all the reasoning you need. He doesn't have to be a long term solution. One or two more years with Tyrod until they find something better would be a logical decision.
I believe so, it at least he should be.
Fans will not be happy with a 5-11 or 6-10 season. How can you be?
The guys going on 7 years with the team. Why should he get the benefit of rebuilding something he !@#$ed up to begin with?
I'm a Tyrod supporter, but I don't think this is necessarily true. You could potential have Cousins, Romo, Rivers, Garoppolo or Brees available this offseason. I would take any of them over Tyrod for next year.
-
For a guy to take a weird lateral move like this, it tells me he was either about to be fired (unlikely) or, more likely, has been identified as a rising star as an OC/HC and wants to round out his resume by proving that he can coach up the most important position on offense. If so I'm intrigued.
Hopefully we look back on this hire in 2 years and this is true.
-
The best part about all of these hires is that everyone is coming from winning organizations who do things the right way (Panthers, Ravens, Broncos). That more than anything else should help move this team in the right direction.

Damn...the end of one of the great team songs in the NFL....

I think the thing to realize is with very few exceptions, all interviewing HC are "unproven HC", whether they've worked as HC before or not.
Let's take two examples.
Bill Belichick. No one today would consider him an unproven HC. He's the longest tenured HC in the NFL now, if I recall. And he's not available for hire.
But, when he was available, he was Bill Belichick who had 4 seasons of "meh" and one good season with the Cleveland Browns, then returned to being a coordinator and had success there - not a proven HC at all.
Tom Coughlin. He coached the Giants for 12 years, including a SB and 6 winning seasons. Yet, his last winning season was in 2012 followed by 4 "meh" seasons. So while he's a vastly experienced head coach, he's not "proven" he can win or "proven" he can take a team mired in mediocrity and turn it around.
This isn't to dis on Coughlin, not at all - it's to make the point that basically, anyone you can hire is unproven in some way or another.
To your point.. what I would give for Jim Harbaugh...

Agreed that Tyrod might not be the long term answer, but the fact is that this team is 9th in points per game in 2016 and leads the league in every major rushing category. Whether you like him or not, Tyrod has had this team as a top 10 offense since he took over the quarterback position. How many of us would have complained about that 2 or 3 years ago?
The issue is that the defense (and Rex) has let this team down each of the last 2 years. And no, Tyrod isn't a perfect QB, but he has certainly held up his end of the bargain and produced despite lacking any real threats in the passing game this year. If you think putting Bryan Hoyer on this team in 2016 would have resulted any better , you're fooling yourself.
-
You're asking an awful lot on that play. Tyrod was under immediate duress and a throw would have drawn the flag, IMO.
Agreed, he didn't handle it poorly. But a heady player with great instincts might have pulled it off. He looked like he was outside of the tackle box before he got tackled.
-
I think Badol is talking about the times that TT is running to the sidelines and cannot get off a pass and should just toss it OB before he runs OB. He did it once during that drive. He's done it several times this year. I think there was a game earlier this year when the Bills were charged with two sacks against because he did it once one yard behind the line and once two yards behind the line.
It's a tough call because he's always running with his head up and looking downfield to make a pass or make a play, and doesn't really have time to look down and see if he is a yard or two ahead or behind the line. But there are some times when he knows he can't make a play and should just toss it out.
It seems like Tyrod lacks the instinct that tells him to throw the ball away in those situations. It really would have helped on the snap that went past him when he was lined up behind the guard. I know that was a tough moment and that the play didn't come back to bite us, but it would have been great to see him chuck that ball deep and out of bounds after picking it up and scrambling, instead of taking the huge loss.
-
I think this really just comes down to a couple missed throws. If Tyrod makes the deep throw to Woods and he takes it in for a touchdown, we aren't having this conversation.
With that said, Tyrod can't miss on an overthrow like that.. Woods had his man by almost 5 yards and even an underthrown ball would have probably resulted in a catch or pass interference. Hopefully he makes the adjustment and starts giving his receivers a chance on the deep ball.
-
Exactly. I'm 100% sure that Rex wouldn't cut a player because they supported Hillary, so they have no place letting his political leaning affect their preparation or performance.
Agreed, but it's easier to see a player not coming to the Bills because he knows Rex is a Trump supporter.

Just read an interesting article on BR, "Donald Trump is Tearing the NFL Apart". It starts of like this..
Six months ago, Rex Ryan stood before a roaring crowd in Buffalo and gave a pep talk. This was not an unfamiliar scene for the Bills head coach, except for maybe the suit and tie. Well, that and the subject of his four-minute speech: Donald J. Trump.
“There’s so many things I admire about Mr. Trump, but one thing I really admire about him is—you know what—he’ll say what’s on his mind,” Ryan said. “And so many times, you’ll see people—a lot of people—want to say the same thing. But there’s a big difference: They don’t have the courage to say it. They all think it, but they don’t have the courage to say it. And Donald Trump certainly has the courage to say it.”
I didn't know that Rex was a trump supporter or that he spoke at his rally. The article goes on to quote a couple of anonymous Bill's players who said their opinion of their coach changed after learning he was a Trump supporter. I'm not sure of the role that politics play in an NFL locker room, hopefully players/coaches can draw a line between that and football.
It'll be interesting to see if anything comes up in the next month.
Here’s some salary cap info on the Bills. They spend on their DL, that’s for sure.

Interesting to think about - but the fact that they call out Addison as being an OLB means the numbers for other teams are likely way off too. I'd imagine that Von Miller isn't considered DL according to this analysis.
