IDK, 2 years in a row in the elimination game Josh hit receivers in the hands with potential game winning potential and both dropped them. The difference between Buffalo and KC is that KC’s role players show up in the playoffs and most of our stars sht the bed. Groot was an abomination against KC, Oliver didn’t suck but he didn’t make a difference. Non-Miller was MIA as usual, Jones was meh at best. Despite that, Josh had the ball at the end of the game with the chance to take the lead AGAIN, yet Cook wasn’t on the field and Kincaid (despite having no legs) dropped a ball that hit him in the hands. I don’t think Josh is the problem in the playoffs. Someone else needs to make a play just once

I live in New England. I thought I saw clips of him at OTAs running routes. If it wasn’t a fake, he looked pretty good.

How is Diggs practicing without passing a physical from the Pats* medical staff? If he did pass a physical, NE is one the hook for all the guaranteed money

This is hilarious. He’s got the Bruce Smith flu. Talk to me in November about his availability.

The only thing more worthless than training camp reports are OTA reports. I’ll wait for the first few games of the season for initial impressions.

I don’t necessarily think it will be a distraction or a negative but at best it’s neutral. I can’t think of one positive thing for the team (not fans) having the Bills on Hard Knocks.

Doesn’t Gabe have a fully guaranteed salary with off-sets? If that’s the case, why would any team pay him more than the league minimum since Jax is taking the hit? Also, Gabe has balsa wood ankles, the dude cannot stay healthy. Great guy, but if after 4 years you can’t get on the same page with Josh there is zero reason to bring him in. I don’t think people are factoring in the opportunity cost for every target Gabe dropped, ran the wrong route, or allowed to be intercepted. The reason our offense was so good last year is because it was exceptionally efficient and Gabe is the opposite of that.

Listen Gabe, you were a good dude but it’s over. Josh got you your bag, go enjoy it. We both know if you sign here, you are going to drop your first important pass then roll that glass ankle you have and gimp around for 16 weeks. Thanks for the KC memories

You can tell how much the Bills value character and personality when they are making these selections. Sure pure talent is probably more important than character in terms of winning the SB, but it sure makes it easy to root for these kids. I know it’s only an edited snapshot but I think you can tell something from these videos.

I’m willing to give Dalton year 3 before I draw any conclusions. He was pretty banged up last year and had a very good rookie season. I doubt he’s been able to put on much weight if any while recovering from the PCL. To you guys who say you were at 5% bodyfat, post your stage pics. That’s a professional bodybuilders level of lean. The amount of time/training/cardio/calorie restriction that takes is beyond 99% of the population. Getting to around 10% is doable if you are strict. Getting from 10-5% is a whole nother level of pain.

There is more intelligent football conversation in a TBD nickname thread than there is on any WGR show. All of those hosts, especially Jeremy and Joe, display below average football intelligence. I have no problem with Beane calling them out even though I’d prefer he had taken a higher road. His best line was reminding them they wanted Josh Rosen over Josh Allen, that was laugh out loud funny. Buffalo sports media is pure amateur hour. You get a ton better intelligent content from the many podcasters that cover the Bills, but I guess that’s part of the radio schtick. As for Coleman, JFC give the guy a chance. No one on here saw the emergence of Bernard after we let Edmunds walk. This place was apoplectic after the draft when we didn’t snag a MLB early. We draft for character. I expect Coleman heard when Beane called him out after he played like crap post injury. It’s a maturity thing. I expect we will see a much better Coleman this season but idk if that will justify passing on Ladd.

You will not ruin my feel good overly sentimental opinion with your logical, reasonable and probably correct take

HOW CAN ANYONE NOT LOVE THIS?? It’s Tre Mother F’n White! The Prodigal Son returns! I don’t care if he’s washed, I’ll waste a roster spot on him just because he’s that good of a dude. Ok now seriously, a 75% Tre locks down that #2 spot and he’s better than Dane Jackson. I think he looked decent with the Ravens. Not the Tre of old, he’s never coming back, but not the Toast Tre with the Rams either. At worst, he’s a solid backup, beloved franchise player, and mentor to whatever young DB we draft. At best, he gets to 80% of old Tre and is a solid #2 CB for the year while whatever draft pick gets up to speed. I smiled ear to ear when this came across my feed. The roar at the Ralph when he comes out of the tunnel will be deafening! Sometimes a feel good move also is the right move for the team. I think this is one of them. Tre White Goalie Academy is back in session! Love it!

This is all posturing on both sides and something will get done. I think a lot of fans still suffer from Post Diggs Drama Syndrome and James hit a raw nerve with his social media BS. Buffalo has all the leverage, and unless James uses his idiot brother Dalvin as his agent, he will understand that. He has an opportunity to get a guaranteed amount of generational wealth now with a team that wants him. Beane isn’t going to lowball him, he’s going to give him a reasonable contract for a very good 2 down back who can’t pass block. Unless James wants to risk playing out the last year of his contract and a potential injury that will cost him 10s of millions, he’ll meet Beane in the middle and sign a reasonable contract.

I have no ill will towards Stef. He was a big help in the accelerated development of a raw Joshua F’n Allen. Yeah, he became a cancer so bad that Beane took a 31 million dead cap hit to get rid of him, but we actually got a 2nd which I thought was nuts. Now he goes to the Pat* with a bum wheel, takes a crap ton of their money, and who knows when he will be up to speed. Good for him. I don’t think he will be a cancer in NE, he just won’t live up to that contract and he will be gone after 2. It will be interesting to see how Drake develops. He looked good as a rookie but so did CJ Stroud. Now that teams have a year of tape on him they will take away what he likes to do. We will see how he responds.

Uh, no. I love Ty in his role, but he’s not close to Freddie

I like James. He’s a good not great back because he can’t pass block. He’s probably worth 10-12 mil/yr for 3 years to the Bills. If he doesn’t like that, run him into the ground in 2025, let him walk, get a comp pick.

I liked the trade for Amari. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that our offense opened up and improved after he got here. His lack of production was disappointing. I think it’s a combo of a broken wrist and Brady not really setting up the downfield passing game. We played the short, intermediate game and then every once in a while it was WR go deep. I’d take him back on a cheap deal, but I really think we need a burner who can catch on the outside. We’ve got plenty of guys who can’t separate.

Eh, more of a bad look for the team than a huge impact. It sucks and makes Beane look stupid but I’m not too concerned about the impact on the D. We aren’t fixing that defense in a year, especially that D-line. We’ve got 2 pretty good guys (Oliver, Rousseau), 1 potential game changer in Bossa if he doesn’t stub his toe, and a bunch of jags. LB is pretty good. Jackson sets the floor at CB. Safeties are a big question mark. That’s not a SB winning defense. There’s a lot of time between now and September. I expect Beane isn’t done yet.

Meh

I can’t believe anyone here really thought Cinci was going to trade us Hendrickson. That’s looney tunes. It’s a good signing. Risky, sure, but it’s only a one year deal and it’s not your money. It doesn’t stop us from drafting a DE, but it takes the pressure off of reaching early. Who else out there who was realistically available did people want? Not Garrett, not Crosby, not Hendrickson. Sweat? Meh.

Neither Knox or Kincaid are top TEs. Knox is solid but gets paid llke he’s a top TE. Kincaid had a good rookie season then sucked last year. I hope injuries are the reason and I’ll give him a Mulligan because he did flash a lot of potential his first year. I think Beane and McD have both made it clear they need him to get bigger and stronger. They are seeing the same things we are. If Kincaid takes it to heart and works his ass off this off season, I think he can bounce back. Knox you have to keep because of his blocking ability and Kincaid’s regression. I’m cautiously optimistic these guys can be better contributors next year.

Rousseau sucked in the AFC Championship game. He’d been setting the edge all year and he gave it up at least 5x in the AFCCG including Mahomes TD. I don’t care if you didn’t see it on film, after the first 2 times Reid baited your ass inside you should have learned. I can’t believe how often he gave that edge up. So I’m in the let him play out his 5th year camp. If he explodes, we pay the man. Otherwise it’s another Tremaine Edmunds dump and hopefully we get a good comp pick. We can’t keep running back the same D-line that is the reason we get bounced out of the playoffs every single year.

You can never have too many old, injury prone, over paid defensive ends! Super Bowl.

Did I read that correctly? You think Bernard is an all pro level player? He’s a solid LB but not anywhere near close to all pro, especially this year. I think we need a game changing defensive tackle before Edge. The problem is no one is giving up those guys, so we might have to swing at DE. The game is changing where the best QBs are getting the ball out faster than ever which limits the impact an edge can have. A game wrecker up the middle is where we need to get to. DT, CB, Safety, DE. Lots of needs going into next season.
