I’d love a fresh voice from outside the building in coaching leadership. Whether a coordinator or a position coach/AHC title someone able to challenge the staffs existing views a bit

hopefully the 5th year option both encourages him as a contract year but also as another year in the system. It’s not excusing it as others have played better but wouldn’t be crazy to see some covid year disruption and a few normal off-season help take a step or two forward when paired with the crossroads. I dont think he’s been “the guy” but want to find reasons to think he could be viable still. Another inconsistent year and you could spend money more effectively than paying him as an elite guy

a fair but unappreciated point. It wasn’t the end of the world when Dorsey did that but I think it certainly pointed at a red flag in him, and wasn’t embodying what he would want out of his guys.

heck, zay Jones got 3 years 24M boyd is exactly the type they likely won’t be able to keep

counter, burrow and chase will quickly eat that cap and their margin for error will shrink drastically. they are what the bills should’ve been 2-3 years ago when fans were just happy to be in the playoffs. we will be contenders for a decade but it’ll be tough to overcome the teams with a qb and wr or DE on rookie deals. It just amounts to like 4-5 extra good vet starters

I liken it a bit to working in a disaster zone - the jobs off the rails with no routine, your dealing with chaos at home and after a month or so you have one of those days at work where you just sit staring at your desk without purpose cause you are just burnt and there’s no more adrenaline to just muscle through it. blizzard to thanksgiving to Thursday to losing von to Christmas blizzard to damar… they went over a month with no routine or normalcy and just a lot of energy drain

or just let him bring Jeff Ireland and have a fresh start. I do t think it’s happening but you don’t do it halfway.

Disagree wholeheartedly- we have a team that can play in elements. They did not though. They would’ve been flat in cincy or a dome.

unfortunately, second rounders are not elite prospects at DL. we have Ed O, Rousseau and an injured VM. We need another elite rusher, even if a short term rental.

ill say I think the Micah Hyde injury is a bit much to point at as an item on the list. Guys get hurt. He’s not Josh. You have to play through that. I am curious if VM would’ve flipped the script some. Real pressure changes everything. but I do generally agree that this team hit the floor instead of its ceiling the last month. Seasons have roller coasters and just a rough way for it to unfold from late November through yesterday. Blizzard-blizzard-national tragedy at your workplace is a really challenging run to keep at 110% every day. Not to excuse it but think that a let down game was almost destined.

to be fair, diggs should’ve gone upfield on the one pass instead of tucking right behind the underneath defender creating a much harder pass. Our receivers seem to often create harder lanes. then to bark at the guy right after he gets crushed is ridiculous there’s good diggs and bad diggs. Yesterday was a glimpse at the bad one. I like the guy, he makes our team better but he was also replaced in Minnesota for a reason.

noting them being so close it’s weird you think you know better than Josh there.

so 6 yards is a longshot but you kick onside

yup. I’m not sure Dorsey had any meaningful philosophy it’s really strange to add cook and Hines and then not involve them in space a ton. I know a hated catch phrase here but….

Yea I don’t think they 8th DL off the board is the guy that solves this unfortunately I suspect it’s an interior lineman. Hopefully not just a replacement of Morse. WR should be the pick

he’d be a step up but couldn’t reasonably be called

Go for it

Wish cook would’ve cut inside to try for that first

Well, now we can put that quarter behind us…. On to better play

Jesus Christ John, why are you wishing that on Josh

If it were that easy he’d never be scrambling or throwing off base. It’s the nfl. We have good pass rushers even if not elite.

yea, I don’t think either fan base has the presence to support $2,000 tickets plus travel and lodging before the Super Bowl. That said, who the hell knows.

obviously but they already let him play on it and he’s going to fight like hell to play

Should have went straight there when he walked off after the third down fail. Wouldn’t have even seen the field goal cause he’d be in there getting wrapped and the shot. Now his absence might effect multiple drives instead of just this one.
