The Jets defense has underperformed most of the season. They still have the talent, he might be able to help. Not saying it's a wise choice or not, but despite his tenure in Buffalo, he was a pretty decent coach, especially with the defense.

Wilson was a brilliant, HOF-trajectory QB once upon a time. But last year, he was rocking a mighty 205 ypg. Took 45 sacks, ANY/A of 6. TL;DR it's been a couple years since Wilson has played like a very good QB.So yeah, it was a controversial, somewhat ballsy move
Not interested in the qb discussion, just wanted to say that projections like that are useless. They don't mean anything.

Narrative. McDermott's is "13 seconds" and "not beating the Chiefs in the playoffs." Josh's lingering narrative is he's a draft bust. The pundit class isn't going to let go of that.
Who says Allen is a draft bust? Seriously. I've never heard that.
-
Because it's an individual award and we are focused on team goals?
I never understood the obsession with individual awards when we all love to preach 'team' to kids starting in sports.

A lot.
Just hit replay and you can watch 10 times in about a minute.
Just noticed on viewing #64... Van Denmark made the key block at the line opening the gap that Allen ran through.

What a dysfunctional organization. I love it
Makes us really appreciate the organization we have and how important it is to the continued success of the team.
I've always liked McDermott, but since last year, mid-season, everytime they show him on the sidelines I feel so good that he's the coach .
This is a special time for the team and if they finally win the big game, it will be so deserved and thy organization will forever be considered one of the great ones.
Obviously, I love the team right now. Just look at how they've handled the loss/aging of key players, addition of so many rookies and new veterans. Just tremendous.

Personally, I wanted to slap him. 🙃
We all know he’s a douche, but I think that reaction was a little classless.
Jesus, just enjoy the great win.

I'm not upset, nor have I missed the positive coverage of Allen. I'm just pointing out that the constant refrain "Allen turns the ball over too much" is never, that I've seen and heard, paired with his remarkable touchdown production. It's the mindless repetition of the Narrative I object to.
By the way, I also object to the "Mahomes won three Super Bowls, so he should be spared all criticism" narrative you repeat, too. I'll assume the best and won't accuse you of being mindless on this point. Maybe you thought it through and concluded Mahomes should only be praised. All Hail Saint Patrick?
Please show me where I said mahomes should be 'spared all criticism.'
I'll hang up and listen.

Yes, but why that narrative, repeated ad nauseum even by Bills fans, never paired with his scoring far more touchdowns than everyone else? He's had 189 TDs since 2020 vs. 62 interceptions. Mahomes has 167 TDs in the same period vs. 56 interception. So 22 more TDs than "the best player in the league" and just 6 more interceptions, yet he's a turnover machine, not a touchdown machine.
Bias anyone?
If you missed all of the positive coverage of Allen over the years, that's your problem.
Like many, I think you're looking for a reason to get upset with national coverage.
It's a very buffalo thing to do.
I'm gonna take a wild guess that Mahomes 3 Super Bowl wins might have something to do with him not getting the same criticism.

I think everyone likes him, but the narratives on him have been so bad the last 7 years that they’re hesitant to openly say he’s awesome.
A Super Bowl win would be enough for people to admit it.
The narrative was that, until this season, he turned the ball over too much. Which was true.

How would you talk about mahomes if he led the league in turnovers over the last bunch of years?

The Jets currently have 8 teams ahead of them in the draft order. The Dolphins are outside of the top 10. New England seems to have their QB, already.
Basically, nobody in the AFC East is picking a top-of-the-class QB, this year. It's like watching us wither at a .500 or so record for 17 years: Never bad enough to get an answer QB; never good enough to make a squeak in the playoffs.
I'm just saying that this is a lovely time to be a Bills fan, and being on the other side of hopelessness is a damn good feeling!
The dolphins wouldn't draft a QB in the first round.
I wonder if the Jets try to get Darnold back? Cousins will be available, Love too.

It’s funny. Nobody gives Allen his due, his true due, yet everyone secretly likes to watch him play.
I wonder if Allen wins a SB that his national fanbase will become way larger than typical.
Most sports fans that I know out here in phoenix know full well how great Allen is. Not one of those people don't think he's a superstar.
You should see my text messages from Sundays game.
Where do you come up with 'nobody' gives him his due. Did you listen to the announcers, the talk shows?
Do you know what nobody means?
You're making up stuff to continue the 'whoa is buffalo' whine. It's time to stop that.

Milano has not played football in a year and a half. It is going to take some time to get him ready and in game shape, which argues for a build up type of approach. That is what I expect the Bills to do, inserting him initially on passing downs and gradually building his reps from there. If he is the same player, which is a big if until we see it, he will be taking the majority of snaps before the end of the season with Williams relegated to game plan specific formations and occasional rest reps for Milano. At least that is what I think they will do.
Whether he can be ready for the SF game is an open question. If he is I expect he will play some, but it would not be surprising if he does not.
It's been a just over 13 months, a year and a half is 18 months, so that's a significant difference.
I wouldn't expect 100% of the snaps, but I don't anticipate a long buildup.
There aren't really exclusive 'passing downs' and if your thinking 3rd and long...probably not a lot of those in a game. Teams generally have about 8 drives a game. He'll play more often than that.

What a nice issue to have. You have the younger player that hasn't been perfect...but has been really good. Far better than he was last year. Then a former All Pro coming back.
If I'm the Bills, I don't feel the need to rush Milano back. And when he is back...ease him in. Low snap counts and situation specific. The the kid handle the bulk of the work and slowly ramp Milano up for January.
He's been out since early last season, they're aren't rushing him back.
This seems to happen with every significant injury, just when the player is about to return, some fans think he's being rushed, or want to wait a week or 2 more, or work him in slowly.
The team knows what they're doing. They opened a 21 day window to allow him to practice and evaluate his readiness. That's the opposite of rushing him.
When he plays, he'll be ready to go.

NFL, like any sports, is a show-me-what-you-have-done-yesterday league. Milano has not shown us anything for .. I lost count .. games, and he's no spring chicken that you expect growth. I'd love to have a pro-bowl Milano back. But I'll proceed assuming he's not in that form; in other words, I'm not banking my hope on him to put us over the top this year.
I didn't bank any hope on Von Miller helping us last and this season either. But he showed up this year with sacks now so I expect him to be an important piece on 3rd down pass rush the rest of the season. In fact, him and Rousseau rushing from edges on a must-have 3rd down stop is probably one of the better pair in NFL in my view.
He's had 4 extra months to strengthen/heal his leg, and a torn bicep shouldn't be an issue coming back from.
If his leg is 100%, let him loose.

i'd not worry about giving him a lot against SF.
i had mistook the lions after the niners, so yeah, go ahead and let him do a few against the niners, snap count against the rams, and start him against the lions.
i don't know who we practice squad, though.
But it's it because of the turf? I don't know.
Maybe we'll at least avoid wrist injuries there.

the snap count will need to be against the Lions on that horrible turf. Bring him back - for the Rams game to let him get some reps and be on the field. snap count him against the Lions.
I'd love to have him debut at home where he will have all the facilities to rehab after the game and not have to fly but we will see.
Don't play him against SF?
Again, let's not over think this. It sounds like he'll be ready for the 49'ers game. If he is, play him.
I know we've had bad luck in Detroit, but the Lions play there all the time and they're not breaking down.

Maybe Taron can do the safety role Poyer did so well close to line and have Rapp do free safety role. This way you keep best tacklers on field.
Taron made All Pro, doesn't sound wise to change his position.

Well, technically it would probably be Taron, but I certainly wouldn't want to take him off the field for any reason.
And they would never do that.

I believe with a healthy Milano, we at times could of gone 3 LB look like we did in prior years to deal with first downs and force them to pass on first downs. Milano is healthy he starts. IF Milano needs to be eased in he will be eased in. Its still Milano's job
Who do you take off the field to put Williams as the 3rd LB? Groot? AJ?
Not happening.
Let's not overthink this.

Williams on third down. Milano against the run and stunt blitzes.
Because teams always run on 1st and 2nd down and always pass on 3rd.
16 minutes ago, MJS said:Williams is strongest playing downhill against the run and short passes. Milano is best in coverage. You got it opposite, haha.
Milano is great at everything, hence being an All Pro.
I want him out there every play.

He just doesn't always get there. He's not bad, but he's pretty average.

Put Matt on a pitch count and bring him back slowly. Dorian is playing great and is part of a tandem with Bernard that is a big part of 9 and 2. Matt is an all pro OLB but at this point in his career, he’s a good bet to hit IR before the playoffs if he’s the starter. Let’s just get him in game shape and in the flow and set him loose in the playoffs.
It's a snap count. Pitch count is for baseball.
Williams is not playing great, he's been adequate.
Milano has sat out enough, get him in there. He's a dynamic player whereas Williams is not. Bernard is a dynamic player, and you see the impact that linebackers can have on a game. Big sack and game ending interception this week. Can't wait to see Milano out there.
This is a huge addition to the defense.

I'll give McDummy credit for going for it on 4th and 2. Major cuevos call there. But if he ever challenges another 6 yard completion on 2nd and seven like 5 minutes into the game..... You just may see me on Buffalo PD Live.
McDummy? There should be an age requirement to post. If you're 12 and under, can't post stupid crap like that.

Why is McD not being talked about as coach of the year?

Because that's what this site is about. Having discussions.
Projections mean nothing, so if you start your point using a meaningless stat, in my opinion, it can hurt the credibility of the rest of your post. It's worth pointing out.
