Please do that.......because he's practically run into the ground already.........that 2020 workload took the starch out of him even before his injury this year. If they were smart they'd cut Henry, save $9M........and give a nice cheap 2 year deal to D'Onta Foreman before they lose him in UFA this winter. On a modest deal the 235# Foreman would look nice in the Bills backfield(assuming they stay with more of the run game design they used late season).

Well everyone generally assumes that he will retain his speed already. Williams may fall because he may not be ready to play early in the season and it's a very deep WR draft...........on the heels of several consecutive deep WR drafts..........it's one of the lesser "need" positions around the league. And it's a very good OL and DL draft early, which are much more "need" positions and teams are also very desperate for DB's so there will be reaches there too.

Saleh may just not want another stretch zone offense in the division. Makes it easier for Buffalo and NE to prepare for the Jets and Miami when they are running the same offense. It's getting to the point where there are so many of these Shanahan offenses in the NFL that it encourages answers to be found by DC's............and that leads to diminishing returns. Much like when the entire league started trying to run the BYU style WCO in the 90's and early 2000's to try to be like the 49ers and more successful branches of the Walsh tree...........only to have defenses get so complicated that young QB's were basically being thrown to the wolves trying to run it.

Was referring to Brady maybe finding a better OC job than he felt was even available this "cycle"........... in the event that Dorsey were to remain in his position as Bills OC after 2022.

He's not coming to Buffalo to teach QB mechanics.........he was a WR in college and the only other position coach he's been on offense anywhere is a WR coach.......never been a QB coach before..........he is likely there to add to the teams game planning/design, helping Dorsey as the "passing game coordinator"...........and then being promoted if Dorsey becomes a HC or getting his pick of better OC jobs.

1) You should follow your team closer since you are he who determines who is a fan and who is not 2) Also learn how to use f*cking google https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2021/03/16/bills-made-a-run-at-rob-gronkowski/

You are welcome to boo. But the whole "never root for a Bills player because he is a former Patriot" is something we should get over. NE used Buffalo like a farm team extensively during their two must successful stretches (early 2000's and 2016-2018) and it contributed greatly to them winning many SB's. "The Patriots have better Bills than Buffalo" Al Michaels once said. If the Bills need a player or two to get over the hump and they are a former Patriot I am not letting that bother me.

No d-bag who pulled their financial support in protest after the firing of Rex Ryan has the right to tell ME I'm not a Bills fan. I may not always personally like or respect a player the Bills get but I root for the laundry every damn time. You and @Protocal69 need some MF'in process in your lives:

Which 2 years of NFL experience are you talking about? The 2 with the Saints or the 2 with the Panthers? He was twice suddenly not a college coach and that's the way he wanted it because he doesn't want to recruit. I have no idea if he needs stability. I think he figures he probably needs to be a year removed from getting fired before he can secure an OC job in a situation where he is poised to succeed (and advance his likely goal of becoming a HC).

Brandon Beane tried to sign him and therefore very well may try again. Write Beane a strongly worded letter and then show your passion for the subject by finding a new team to root for(cheaply) from afar like you currently do.

As I mentioned in another post..........he isn't really a college coach and has no history as a recruiter and from what I heard no interest in doing that job. University of Miami would have been the logical choice.........he is from there so there was a lot of speculation about it..........but you can't pay a big time coordinator salary to a guy in college who isn't also a recruiter. Players want to know that the OC really wants them there. Can't just send a WR coach out there and expect to pull 4 and 5 star players unless your name is Saban.

Or if he doesn't just hit the wall as a player should he decide to actually play in 2022. He was tremendously productive this year though............some Bills fans think he was just an "ok" TE still.........but between his production as a receiver and his ability to block he was certainly a top 10 TE and arguably a top 5 TE. I wouldn't be as high on the idea if they had a really great option as a YAC producing slot receiver.........but not a lot of good matches $ wise and talent wise at that position in UFA.........and while I like the late 1st round receiver prospects you don't want to be reliant on one in 2022. I readily admit that Brady did a great job leading his receivers.......which is a bit different than how the Bills offense has done it..........but Gronk averaged almost 15 yards per reception and would have lead Bills receivers in YAC per play based on numbers alone.

Inadvertent vs intentional..........BOTH happen. Like the difference between you and a real doctor.

The problem Brady is having getting what he wants is that everyone in college knows he wants to be in the pro's...........and doesn't want to recruit...........otherwise he would get a huge deal as a college OC. Everyone in the pro's knows he sucked as an OC at Carolina. So while it seems like a step back.......taking a QB coach job with a Bills team that.........if they play their personnel cards right this offseason.........could end up as one of the all-time scoring offenses in NFL history certainly makes sense. Offensive goal for 2022......38 points per game.

I love the "Gronk tried to murder Tre White" "Gronk tried to end Tre White's career" takes. He speared him on the ground after a play.........dirty, absolutely........but more career threatening things happen in the middle of the field all the time..........intentional low hits to defenseless receivers........intentional helmet to helmet collisions. Brandon Beane showed how unforgivable he thought it was when he pursued Gronk in UFA last offseason. The incident has been greatly exaggerated by a few people........including one notable wannabe honorary WNY'er living in the Carolina's who quit his season tickets in frustration when Sean McDermott was hired. That guy was trying to end McDermott's career!

Knox + Gronk I like 12 if both of your TE's are good. Good way to keep the ball moving, bolster the run game and open up the deep play action passing game.

Yep, no guarantee that Flores would be the better coach for the job. But he was more qualified. And for that he at least deserved a legitimate chance if he was being interviewed. Sham-interviewing him after what had happened in Miami was ugly. If you are going to just hire your guy either way..........interview some people who know they are just getting Rooney Rule looks.........not the more proven, local guy. There were plenty of excuses to hire Daboll without doing that.

You are getting confused............Flores is the local NYC guy not Daboll..........Flores is from Brooklyn. Buffalo is like 380 miles from the Meadowlands. Pittsburgh is closer. And Flores has had back to back winning seasons as an NFL HC.........just finished last season 8-1 over the last 9. Daboll has been fired 3x as an NFL OC and never been a HC at any level. On paper.........it's no contest who is the more "deserving candidate". It simply comes down to the GM hiring who he's most comfortable with. Which is reality and everyone knows that this is usually how it works, regardless of race. But when some f*cking HC on another team, who is also white, knows who the HC of the Giants is going to be before they've even had interviews that is a really, really bad look...........even if it ultimately is just a longtime friend in Mara consulting with Belichick. It just looks like:

Collectively I think the rotation has probably helped them be more consistent and healthy late in the year. Individually, it almost has to have set back a guy like Epenesa. AJE was a very rare 5 star recruit for Iowa but was very slow to develop initially..........but when the light came on he became a different player instantly. Some players/people don't learn in a linear way........they don't really understand until they get a broader view.......and Epenesa seems like he might be that guy.

The upside for the Bills is having two stretch zone offenses in division helps simplify preparation. Hopefully the Bills rush offense gets away from stretch zone and is more like the late season version. The Tee Martin interview had to get one thinking about implementing more of the Ravens run design.......something McDermott never should have abandoned in the first place(for a stretch zone O with Dennison).

It's been a problem..........they haven't gotten the impact they probably hoped for from anyone they have signed or drafted. Yet. For all we know, Oliver takes his game up another level next season and turns into an All Pro consideration..........maybe Phillips is re-signed and continues his ascent........Groot, Basham and Epenesa could all have much bigger impacts all at the same time. Maybe one downside to all the rotation is that it might lengthen the learning curve a little bit versus accepting diminishing returns per snap in exchange for more learning reps.

You mean like you did with your "let's trade Devin Singletary or picks for Saquon Barkley" thread when Barkley has rarely been healthy in 2 years, has looked bad when he has been, and is guaranteed a massive $7.2M cap hit next year?

In fairness..........a lot of people hated the Josh Allen pick and thought he was going to suck. Daboll was basically the least successful OC in the NFL at each of his 3 previous stops/firings...........and I got the distinct impression from how Saban screamed and sneered at him on the sidelines that he was not impressed with him at Alabama and probably drove him to the airport himself to get rid of him. And a Josh Allen later he is now an NFL HC.

It felt like the first time he's become self-aware of his legacy and felt real pressure. Yips is definitely the way to describe it. Maybe that stupid play at the end of the half triggered something mentally. It's been a little disconcerting watching Mahomes come into the league and play like he carries no weight on his shoulders when it matters. That Mahomes half looked like one of those old fashioned choke jobs that would inevitably plague Steve Young, Jim Kelly, Dan Marino, Brett Favre or Peyton Manning at some point........it really was a career-first for him. Will be interesting to see if Burrow has his moment in the SB............I can certainly imagine Stafford throwing away a SB...........he threw away that NFCCG but Tart dropped it.
