    We didn’t have White, Von, Hyde for most of the season last year and Poyer missed a bunch of games. Hilarious that fans are too prideful to admit that maybe Frazier wasn’t the problem. So stupid. 


    So Von who played in 11 games didn’t help with his 8 sacks, and Hyde only 2 so correct, and tre who played 6+playoffs helped not at all.  Really?  The problem Biscuit is you like to pick fights.  Take care as I won’t respond.

     

    Have a good day partner.

  2. Well, my Dad served during Korea as well as two uncles, and my Dad is still kicking at 93.  I’m thankful everyday for him and his sometimes cantankerous self.   I’m happy for those who made through their service and finished their #1 job, they came home alive.

    I think McD is doing just fine as DC, so I am not worried about that personally.  But OC, no more inside promotions if they are just gonna keep running a similar offense and not put a real stamp on it.  I would much rather see someone come in from the outside and bring just new thoughts and designs to this offense


    McD did better than Frazier would’ve done as DC, as those losses were significant and the defense kept us somewhat in games.  They’ve just been on the field way too long that any defense would get worn out.

     

    As far as OC, I mentioned to Joe on the extra point show yesterday, I wouldn’t wait for the end of the year.  I 

    d place Brady as interim and we can decide whether he remains into next year.  In Carolina, he resisted the push to run more and kept them in games through the pass.  Isn’t that what we e wanted.  Either Brady turns this anemic offense around and keeps his job, or we have the off season to find the best OC we can afford, and Terry needs to open up the wallet.

    high crotch to single leg take down! Wrestling for the win

     

     


    You beat me to it BB.  I just saw the highlight and thought of my wrestling days.

     

    The defense is doing the best they can even with three devastating losses in Tre, Milano, and Jones.  Douglas and Joseph may replenish. to some degree, but the original three are not easily replaced.

     

    As Mister Defense pointed out, the offense has been anemic and gets three and out way too often.  It stresses the defense being on the field for so long.  In the Bengals game, our defense was on the field in the first half for 21 minutes.  
     

    I’ve been resistant to jump on the fire Dorsey rhetoric, but I’m coming around to it.

    It all started going south once the Araiza stuff happened. Maybe we can right the ship. Bring him back 

    Not to mention that Bass has missed more this year than previously has he not? So maybe Martin is losing it at holding as well. 


    I would respect the Pegulas now that Araiza has been completely vindicated if the reports are true, to give him an opportunity.  I don’t know if he has the directional ability to pin the ball close to the end zone based on where we are on the field.  He definitely has the leg to boom it.

    In 20+ years, I don't recall ever having done that once.


    Simon, I’m kidding.  C’mon man.   The he double hockey stick always gets changed etc.  I really just am joking with you.  You know me by now.  I’m not the guy that picks fights. When someone personally attacks me I just ignore and never reply.  It’s not productive and not why I’m here enjoying you’re site.

    You and every Bills fan brother…

     

    Then logic sets in and makes me wonder if indeed we would be stomping them if Brady was there anyway… Tommy boy was never sticking around when the team overall was on a serious decline in talent as well as his own capabilities. 

     

    Only game with a resounding win over Brady that I can remember was the one back in ‘03 the year after Bledsoe arrived.

     

    I know we won maybe 5 games the whole time Brady was there. The only other win where we dominated was with Tyrod, Bob Woods and Shady on O… Same time frame we had the Brown’s as our LB duo. 
    Brissett was also their starter. 
     

     

    Edit; 

     

    Look at the Bucs and Brady when Josh was with us a few years back… They were absolutely throttling us late in the 3rd and went into back burner mode. 


    You missed one.  The Ryan Fitzpatrick win where Brady had 4 picks and was throwing tantrums on the sidelines.  After the game as expected, Brady stated they lost vs. we won and their mistakes.  He was so engulfed in how superior they were in every facet.

     

    Thats why so many of us in our 50’’s who vividly remember the good times with Kelly.  My dad who's still kicking at 93 vividly remembers the Rockpile and fondly remembers the Kemp 60’s championship teams.  That was before my time.

     

    I couldn’t hate Brady while in Tampa as my sons and friends are all Bucs fans.  He did make the team competitive, and to the politics side, he brought Tampa their second championship, made the most out of the talented players on the team, and proved it was Brady, not Belicheck who brought in those 6 rings and 8 appearances.

  8. Since the game is at 8;20, dinner is long over for me so a healthy dessert of Woodford Reserve is on the menu.  A short wide glass, turned upside down has raw sugar cane on it like salt for a margarita, turned back, ice, three lime wedges.   Straight so no soda or anything.  Why ruin perfection.  You guys should try one after dinner out as they are delicious.

     

    Hopefully celebrating victory, not drowning in misery.  I’m always hopeful.  This is the next big challenge post Fins.

    Overdorf has persisted through it all, and mostly because he is a dutiful, ethical, excellent lawyer/accountant who never sought undue power. He used to catch some flack, but that guy is not to blame for any of the floundering. 

     

    Littman had major influence over cap decisions and broad contract parameters, whereas Overdorf was the guy who made those green-lighted deals workable and well-constructed for all parties involved. I suspect Littman had major influence over all the non-cap salaries as well, meaning he had a hand in bringing in less expensive GMs, HCs and their staffs, scouting depts, etc. (And also played a major role in the more expensive, established names not even considering Buffalo, due to his (and RW's) reputation for interfering with football ops.)

     

    ANYWAYS...Montez Sweat is probably underrated by many fans due to meh sack numbers and lesser draft status than Chase Young, but I'm pretty sure he has some solid secondary metrics, like pressures, hits, forced fumbles, etc. Kind of like when Jerry Hughes was obviously being disruptive for the Bills but wasn't recording a ton of sacks. Guess the Bears are gambling on him continuing to improve despite joining a much worse DL group? 


    Noggin, as always, right on the $ with Sweat.  His secondary evaluations are impressive and good for him in a solid contract.  If a team wants to pay that much for a pass rusher, then it’s their money.  That’s the point of capitalism.  If they made a mistake, they’ll pay for their choices down to road.

     

    The real opportunity for the Bears is to find a solid President of football operations, GM, then HC.  Follow the McBeane playbook.  Purge guys like Brandon and Wrex, and replace with the right people.  Purge bad contracts, build with sound draft decisions, and buy intelligently role players.  What did McBeane do by 2019, they had been drafting well, got rid of Darius, and Sammy, and they bought an O Line.  People can complain about the line, but it was better than in 18.  
     

    Until the Halas family starts making good decisions, they will continue to flounder even with Ngakoue, Sweat, Edmunds, and so on.  They need to find their Josh Allen.  My advice, is have mgmt make every attempt to tank, get Caleb, and buy an O Line.  From there they can build a team and with the Packers finally rudderless with a QB thank god for the last 30 years they’ve run the NFCN.

     

    Detroit is the new hot team in the north and they have built a team in the right way.  People laughed at Campbell until they finally came around to accepting he knew what he was doing.

    -To hear the latest news

    - To hear great analysis with an unapologetic pro-Bills bias, and occasionally read truly inspirational prose (Virgil, Shaw, etc.)

    - The mods - they are what we want refs to be.  I almost never think about them yet they maintain enough order to keep this whole chaotic mess working

    - Freddy's dead's nicknames when he hands out game balls - I'm a fan of all of them!

    - I try to tamp down my overreactions to good and bad games but it's sort of cathartic to come here and see people just let fly

    - At times it’s fun to watch a scrum develop as people get angry over nothing.  (Why did you share that thought!  I just spent 10 seconds of my life reading it and now must compose a note telling you how offended I am!)

    - More Zach Ertz threads would be nice

    - I miss the Edmunds threads


    Don’t forget the obligatory “hey, this 38 yr old washed up player was released, should we bring him

    in for a look?  Maybe Von can talk to him, yadayada”

    Because I came here to make fun of Dolphins and Pats fans and make people laugh 

     

    Jets fans write their own jokes themselves 


    And you’re like a blood hound sniffing out those trolls disguised as Bills fans.

     

    Never change DJB.  You have fans and you’re a wisears.  Reminds of someone else I know.

    I'm not going to give the Bills hell about the way the season ended last year. Between the absurd string of personal tragedies that started as early as training camp and the spate of devastating injuries they suffered by the end of the year, it's a miracle they made it as far as they did.

    What I will give them hell about is that they were absolutely, positively physically intimidated by that Bengals team. It's undeniable and there is just no place for that on a ballfield for any reason whatsoever.

    So what do they do the week before they play the Bengals again?

     

    Add Linval Joseph, a widely respected leader and genuine badass who has spent his career as one of the biggest, strongest, toughest players in the league.

    Add Rasul Douglas, another respected leader and oversized, physical, aggressive player who has zero fear on a football field.

    Add Leonard Fournette, a brick shlthouse of a running back who would rather run through somebody than around them.

     

    This is absolutely not a co-incidence. 

    McBeane recognized the problem and took proactive steps to address it right before it was time to knock heads with these guys again.


    Simon, I like and agree with your entire comment on the beginning of this thread, but don’t you scold us for cursing at times.  Sauce for the goose…

     

    I do appreciate the thread although Douglas had actually a slow beginning to his career.  It was the last two years where’d he reinvented himself.  My hope is Elam can do the same by year 3.  He has the natural abilities.  He just has to put it together.

    Classic Chans.  I expect no less from you.  Lamentation of the women is of particular interest.

     

    As far as the existential question, it’s pretty simple, I enjoy hearing balanced measured opinions on various Bills and/or NFL topics as can learn or at least open to hearing differing points of view.  Some not all have a good understanding of football and strategy.  I neither Pollyanna nor a cynic of the team, coaching and Mgmt.

     

    Like many good teams, they do some things quite well, and others could be better.  Recently, I’m very curious as to how the three additions this week could positively or possibly negatively impact Sunday nights game.

     

    Lastly, my friends and family know how nuts I am for the Bills and need a place to get away from the career and other necessities in life.

    72, thanks for starting the thread.  It’s a sound question.

    Huzzah, my friend.

     

    My goodness so many on this Board have slandered you through the years with stating you are lazy, dangerous, insane, glutenous, bifurcated, obscene,  sexually deviant, careless, heartless, ruthless, toothless, mirthless, brash, swarthy, condescending, prickly, cantankerous, boisterous,  egotistical, geriatrical, complicated, rude, obnoxious, demeaning, critical, clinical, technical and even mayoral...

     

    ...and where are they all now after such a great post above?

     

    👀

     

    I say bravo to you...bravo.   

     

    😉

     

    BTW, Beane...ya done good, Sir.  You done real, real good the last couple of days.

     

     


     

    I didn’t know I gained that many fans.    You’re too funny donuts.  As far as Toledo, yeahPoona hasn’t been used correctly.  He sa 3 technique guy who is meant for a 4-3, but he’s the third guy behind Oliver and Phillips for good reasons.  He shined in Seattle in Oliver’s role, but both of the other guys are better.  Phillips is always an injury risk so it wasn’t costly to have him.  Just because he’s thick, he’s never been a space eater.  He floundered in a 3-4.

     

    Joseph so the real deal.  Maybe we get lucky and he scoops up a fumble.  Memories of Berman.

     


    HE COULD GO ALLLL THE WAYYY, RUMBLIN, STUMBLING, BUMBLIN LINVELL JOSEPH!!!

  15. He is tailor made for us.  We needed a true 1 technique, not as good as Daquan, as Jones doesn’t just clog the interior, he penetrates.  Joseph will at least clog up the middle for Oliver and Phillips to hunt.  Interior pressure is key to McD’ s defense.  That and the defensive backs.  Well, we just replenished badly needed bodies in these areas.  In time with snaps Williams will grow at the Wil and Bernard has shown already his progress since year 1.

    The Raiders are reportedly playing John Gruden and Josh McDaniels 80 million dollars not to coach them. That’s just bad.


    Mark Davis is close if not the poorest owner in the NFL.  It’s amazing the incredibly moronic decisions.  He’s taking on senile dads choices, not when Al was young and brought his 70’s teams to the SB.

     

    There was one rumor about Jim Harbaugh.  That actually would be a pretty good idea.  He may be ego maniacal, but he’s a winner, and creates a winning culture.

  17. If any of you have played sports at a highly competitive level or coached, you look forward to challenges.  There’s no doubt with the improvements in the Bengals this is a challenge.  We also have a great opportunity to show who we are as a team.

     

    I welcome it.  If we’re not for it, then we didn’t deserve it anyway.  Beat the blast ages on their home ground and shut up everyone.  As Drago said, we lose, we lose.

     

    Courage and fear.  Two sides of a hand.  One is never on the same side.
