I’ll still watch it

How’s a guy supposed to live only making $7 million in a year

We all know it’s not because you care about the players. You just don’t want to see the team you love lose games over it.

Addison’s potential replacement(s) are already on the roster and none of them include Johnson. There’s a good chance he doesn’t even make the team. It’s pretty clear that BB and McD knew they needed to get younger on the edge given their last two drafts. Johnson is not that guy though.

McD seems to like what he contributes on ST so far. Not sure he’s really solidified himself as a core player that they are dead set on keeping though. I’ve never noticed him make a play there but I’m also not a ST coach and have no idea what it means for them to do their job well if they aren’t returning kicks or making plays in coverage. You seem to have this fixation on Addison for some reason. It’s kind of odd really considering none of the younger guys have proven they are good enough to take over for him. If that happens then I don’t think anyone will care if Addisons role is reduced or eliminated entirely. Until that happen, I think it’s pretty foolish to pound the table to cut a guy when we don’t know if his replacements are any good.

You yourself are making that argument when you say you want to cut Addison and give a bigger role to Daryl Johnson. What has he shown to make anyone believe he’s earned it or is even capable of being an effective pass rusher in the NFL? Seriously I know exactly how McD manages the roster which is why your argument makes no sense.

Daryl Johnson’s best contribution may only be as a ST player. He offers us nothing as a pass rusher and likely never will. So no, I still don’t see how his value is higher considering you yourself downplay the importance of guys whose only role is to play special teams. A declining Addison is still better than Johnson. And a veteran like him holds even more value on this team when it comes to mentoring the young guys who actually have talent as pass rushers. If the younger guys prove they can handle the job and Addison starts to get faded out then I’ll entertain the idea of letting him go if it makes sense. Otherwise, it’s foolish to think a guy like Daryl Johnson deserves more playing time just for the sake of it. That’s not how McD manages the roster.

This doesn’t make any sense. Daryl Johnson is the definition of a fringe guy but for some unknown reason you think he has much more value than Addison. This isn’t a rebuilding team where we should just give the young guys big roles because we don’t care about losing games. Antonio Williams and Taiwan Jones may play the same position on paper but their roles and skill sets are not the same. What you’re proposing makes this team worse.

I don’t see it happening unless he plays significantly better than Harry.

So many hurt feelings. Why do you all keep going back to PFF for their nonsense when you know you’re just going to get upset?

It’s not hard to get. There’s just nothing supporting your speculation other than that’s what you believe. Which endorsements should he be getting? Bills fans are so insecure. Everything is taken as disrespect for some strange reason.

I think you’re really reaching with this. We’ve had players make the Pro Bowl in years we were bad. We’ve had players make All Pro teams recently. Good players get recognized, albeit it’s harder when you play for a bad team but that’s the case pretty much everywhere. Josh is widely considered one of the best QBs in the league and is about to be paid like one. Not sure I get what your beef is.

I think it depends entirely on the player. I’m sure it’s possible that some of the more elite free agents have taken it into consideration at some point. Consider how many elite players there are in the league without big time endorsements. Do their franchises look bad because of it? These guys are also in big market cities as well. Players want to win and get paid. I think you’re overstating this endorsement stuff.

The part about how it’s not a good look for the franchise.

This is so dramatic.

330 lbs would really make all the difference

Id be lying if I said I wasn’t at least a tiny bit nervous to see how Josh does when the stadiums are full and loud again.

I was 97% joking about that.

Why would they need to recuse themselves and what does winning the SB have to do with getting a new stadium?

Sounds expensive

I hope to find someone who holds me the way Davis Webb holds Josh Allen. Then I’ll finally know that I’m enough and can be be happy.

this is what I came here for

LaConfora is always wrong though…

Opting out of last season is really the only mildy interesting thing about Star being back. It certainly isn’t because he’s a huge difference maker on defense.

Are you just trying to argue for the sake of it or do you have a point to make? Start with the number of threads that have been started on Star going back to last season and the fact that he’s actually getting quite a bit of attention from the media.
