Why the hell did the bills decide to receive first?

Nothing beats a 1 PM home game More of these please

Fair- It goes back to my original point I made though. i think he prefers the guy who he knows he can trust, compared to the guy who has more potential , but also might make more mistakes. In other words I feel like he's going with the safe option, but I think it's time to change it up cause Hamlin just isn't playing well

So McDermott always makes the right decision is what you're saying? Did it make any sense when Xavier Rhodes, a 33 year old washed up vet played instead of Elam in 2022? And then when Elam DID play, he made a game changing INT in the playoffs. I'm not just going to blindly trust McDermott with everything, respectfully

I would bet a large amount that Hamlin "won" the job because he knows the system better and Mcdermott feels like he can trust him more. That doesn't make him necessarily the better player/option. He is most likely choosing the "floor" in Hamlin opposed to the higher "ceiling" with Edwards.

I've never zoned in on the guy play myself. But what I heard from a lot of analysts? he's a serviceable safety who can make some splash INTs and is reliable in deep coverage and played solid when called upon on those Super Bowl teams. Now Hamlin I have seen play. And the guy is straight up not good lol

Agreed. Also.. If he can start many games for KC and Tampa, who both won super bowls, is he really worse than Damar Hamlin who is mediocre at best? Unless he fell off a cliff the last 6 months which I have a hard time believing, I think Mcd really overthinks things sometimes

Is this serious? Haha

What was his main point on the call? Missed it

Watch it now.. haha

Wtf did I just listen too😂

Maybe cakewalk was the wrong word. But I think inaruguably they have a very favourable schedule compared to the Bills. And with now Adams coming there which should help their offence a bit, I don't think it is unreasonable for them win a lot of these games against inferior opponents.

I hope you're right, but It's a long season my friend let's let the games play out. Teams get hot, teams get cold, injuries happen. As bills fans, we witness all of that^ every year

I hope you're right! We shall see

"Not a good run blocker " Sean McDermott :

Ya for sure- Like I said before, I think it comes down to the Pitts game for them as thats a 50/50 one. If they win that, they can play medicore ball and only lose 3 more games the rest of the year as their schedule is that soft But if they lose this week, then ya they are in big trouble

Bills for sure have the upper hand. If they beat the Jets again, then ya I would say it is almost a lock. But if they lose to them, I could see it come down to tie breaks It will depend on the Steelers game in my opinion. If Jets beat them, they only have 2 tough remaining games (Texans and Bills). The loss to the Broncos was kind of a weird one in bad weather. Plus they added Adams now I don't think the Jets are a good team, but their schedule is that easy that they can limp their way to 10 wins.

This division will be tighter than we think, so this Cooper trade will help with that as well. I think the Bills are firmly a better team than the Jets, but I looked at the Jets remaining schedule and it is a cake walk. Where the Bills schedule gets super tough later in November

I am sure Mcdermott had to agree with it. But hypothetically speaking- If Beane wanted Cooper and Mcdermott didn't, do you honestly think Mcdermott could say "no" if Beane presented the idea to him, especially since there is a glaring need at WR? Like how could he even justify saying no to that? Again, I am not saying Mcdermott didn't want him- But whether he wanted him or not, I don't think he could have looked like a sane man and said "no" to the trade

Unless I missed it as I just was reading the pro football talk article, I see it differently than you. There was no: "we are excited". Or "Amari is a great player" He could have easily said :" we are super excited to bring in a great player like Amari which adds even more to the guys we love in the room now" But absolutely nothing. Definitely seemed a bit bitter in my opinion

His kicks actually remind me of my golf swing. He pushes it right a lot. (Like in golf would be a slice of course) But then he over compensates and that's why you'll see the ugly hook when he will pull it left from time to time like the missed extra point against the Jets

Probably true- although interesting stat from cover 1: It was either last week or for the whole season I can't exactly remember-, but cook had a 17 percent broken tackle rate. Davis last night? 35 percent. But yes to your point the run blocking was also very good

I know, but wouldn't result in 7 mil of dead cap

IR him with a magical "calf issue" which is gonna cost him the year

Ahhh good point. I completely forgot about that
