Last year the Bears just started integrating their rookie QB after a disastrous start with Mike Glennon.
They went on to a 5 and 12 record behind a shaky offensive line, poor receiving corp and decent defense.
The defense obviously developed well and received some upgraded juice in the form of Kahlil Mack. The offensive line revamped only one starting position and seems to have developed nicely. The staring receivers and TE are all new from last year.
Arguably the Bears are looking like a legit playoff contender this year. This year's Bills seem to be in a similar position as least year's Bears and might be on a 5 and 12 path (or slightly less). The point is that with some off season moves and additional player development the Bears have improved their position from a 5-12 team to a legit contender and the same thing could easily happen to the Bills next year.
*AJMC is / could be a semi decent backup. The team reacted badly to one bad outing where the OL was complete trash- in favor of the home grown QB.
*Not so easy to find OLs, they are the heart and soul an offense.
*WR is a complete joke and definitely shows the ineptitude of previous regimes. KB is the only semi decent starter and he's slow.
yeah, lets bring in allen on a wet slippery day with no running game, no receivers and a defense that is starting to tank like a panzer.
on second though its garbage time at the half, why not.
I love this guy. Listening to him on Mutph's show today and he thinks the Bills can win Sunday and convinced me of the same thing- he made me more excited for the game. He broke through the common doom and gloom, expect some pain mentality for this year's team and even predicts a better season than last year.
I know he is probably a little biased (for many reasons) but I don't care! He gave me some hope for this game and this season that I did not have before I listened to today's show.
Thank you Steve!
No. Ball in the turf Fitzy (as a Bill) was an inaccurate passer who couldn't move the chains to save his life. Peterman has been better than that in P/S.
