I tend to agree, but it also feels like they haven't really learned from some of their mistakes (other than the NE game). 3rd and long D, holding penalties, having 2 or 3 surefire plays to gain 5 yards, etc. Getting better in these areas would absolutely make them more playoff-ready.

People are not too bright. Belicheks record with sub-par qbs has far more wins than the expected value.
But can you really keep playing that card when you are the one largely (totally?) responsible for having those sub-par QBs on the field?

I apologize for looking at the game with a critical eye. He has dropped 6 passes. I wouldn't give him up for anything, but should I point out Justin Jefferson (who Minny drafted with the pick) has dropped only 2.
OK, I'll play along....so what? Should we throw him the ball less? Bench him? trade him? Send him to WR University this summer?

Good Lord....someone is actually finding something to complain about with Stefon Diggs after what he's produced last night and all year. Unreal.

Just locked in the Pats at +4.5 points. Way too many points in what figures to be a close game. Taking the points has been the way to go. Outsiders just don't realize Josh is limited with his elbow. The Pats D is legit. Top 10 in every category. At home in a revenge game. Hopefully, Bills win by 3 or 4 points.
Are you actually referring to Vegas odds-makers as “outsiders?” …making YOU the insider??

For all the doom and gloom about the late game D....huge goal line stand and INT vs Balt; interception of Mahomes in final minute to protect 3 pt lead; Goal line stand vs Minn with < 1:00 up 4, and then again in OT to give the offense a chance..
I know it hasn't been all roses, but come on.

How many years of Josh Allens career are you willing to waste before moving on? I'm serious. How many years?
This is already year 5, 4 of which productive, 3 superstar prime years.
So are you okay wasting 4 prime years? 5?
And you want to be my latex salesman?

A Patriots-esque move...let a guy walk, he kind of disappears, then bring him back for pennies a couple years later and he fits right in. Like J Phillips and Shaq did this year.

I also thought Hamlin had a poor game. He seems fast as hell but loves to dive (and vs KC, miss) when tackling. Not a good trait as a Safety.

Just....wow. The McKittrick hate is off the charts for a guy that just makes plays, game in, game out. First down catches, tough TD's, solid runs, he's made dozens of good plays for the Bills in his time here. He had a bad game today, but the haterz were out immediately after the lateral, they didn't wait for the dropped TD and the dropped pass. How many good plays does a guy have to make before he gets a little slack? The Miami game with 3TD's and an 84-yard PR TD didn't convince you? His 11-catch, 125YD game against the Cheats week 16 last year didn't convince you? Apparently not, because you're holding a few bad plays against him:
The KR fumble against the Colts last year - I was told in the GDT that this was the "turning point" in the game, and McKittrick is why we lost. We were down 17-7 and went down 24-7, then were outscored 21-8 the rest of the way, but it was all McKittrick's fault, got it.
The INT against the Rams that bounced off him.
Not getting OB in the Miami game.
The lateral and the other bad plays today (no argument, he had a very bad game today).
He also has 3 TD's and 10 first downs this year. In contrast, Siran Neal got abused all day long, missing the tackle on the spin-o-rama TD by JuJu, and getting two defensive holding calls to keep KC drives alive. But I didn't see a single post in the GDT about running him outta town. Why does Wrap get the slack and McKittrick get the hate? I just don't get it.
His past play as a gadget guy/ punt returner/ Beasley replacement led to an increased role this year. It just ain’t working. The drops, stumbles, and no YAC ( which was supposed to be his thing) are obvious. Especially compared to legit NFL receivers on this team and across the league.

He did, but that was not a well thrown ball. It was thrown behind him (to his trailing shoulder),
Stifle yourself - that ball was perfect. You lead him AT ALL and you get your WR killed

I dont think they are going to sign a guy to their roster and have no plans for him whatsoever. That would make zero sense.
Oh he will suit up from time to time, maybe get a couple carries. But this move is essentially replacing guy #53ish on their roster. It's not to plug him in as a significant piece of a puzzle.

It’s going to be ugly once Motor leaves, he’s not great, but the drop off means we are going to have to do something.
Is this for real? Ugly?

It will be interesting, in the long run, who will have the better NFL career, Moss, Cook, or Blackshear. Time will tell. We are seeing, right now with our rookie cornerbacks, that draft position doesn't always indicate how well a player will preform.
Blackshear will never be heard from again, most likely. He’s #4 on a team with a superstar and 2 legit RBs (Foreman and Hubbard) ahead of him. Good for him though to get the paycheck.

I think the casual fan loves the storyline of a guy who is somehow SO good at their job/sport compared to everyone else. Bellicheat was that guy among NFL coaches. Rather than showing humility, his crappy attitude toward the press and others when he did lose makes any current criticism very enjoyable to me.

You have zero control over whether the Bills win or not. Wearing your holy underwear that you haven’t washed since the Raiders AFC title game isn’t gonna change that.
This doesn’t sound right

That is precisely the issue. You use a 3rd on a RB like Motor and then two more Day 2 picks on the same position - now what? Motor is a good player but you can’t justify paying him (unless he takes a significant hometown discount) with other, more important positions to re-sign and two other young guys waiting in the wings at RB. Plus he’s not featured in the offense (nor should he be) and he’s a part-time player. So why use a 3rd just for four years of service at a non-premium position? Take an EDGE, tackle, WR, CB there and if you hit, you’ve got a cost-controlled every-down premium asset whom you won’t hesitate to re-sign to a second contract.The bolded is true when you hit a home run on drafting one of those premium position players. What if the more likely scenario happens and the player is "good"...that second contract gets a lot trickier as other teams with cap space will over pay for "good" CB', DE's, etc.
I also think you could spin your argument to taking RBs early...most RBs come out of the gate in peak or close-to-peak performance. Why not draft one and get great value for 3-5 years? Let him walk when that second contract comes up, and start back over. Spend your FA dollars on other premium position needs.

This past week has been one of the worst of Beane's GM reign. And I 100% bet he would tell you that himself in private. Had to trade a guy he invested a 2nd rounder and a trade up in for a 5th, with him publicly admitting he got the character and talent evaluation wrong. Had to cut a drafted punter after it transpired there was an outstanding off field incident that the Bills were not aware of (not blaming him, just setting out the facts) and then he has to cut a guy he gave a 1 year contract and kicked the cap can down the road with a dummy year for this past March, his biggest offseason offensive weapon acquisition because he couldn't beat out a 2nd year UDFA and Tommy freaking Sweeney.
I am not putting Beane on the hotseat or anything ridiculous like that but this has been one of his worst weeks and he would tell you that himself. One of the things I like the most about Beane is when he screws up he very publicly owns it. He owns his mistakes while people on here defend them.
Getting rid of Ford for a 5th should count toward it being a GOOD week. We have already lived through the "bad" on that deal.
Agree on the Araiza situation and OJ Howard miss.

My take too. Doesn't look like he tries to drive him into the ground. Just a hard hit.
I have no idea why the NFLPA doesn't force the NFL owner's hand and ban preseason games. They are worthless. 2020 football without preseason was perfectly fine.
You really think Allen and the starters playing 10 plays will make any difference in quality of play? They played pre-season games last year and they stunk against Pittsburgh. Bills best season in terms of offense was 2020. No preseason. It's not needed. They can figure out the roster bottom feeders in practice. With a larger PS it is even less important. They see these guys in practice enough.
Could it be that in 2020 we benefitted from OTHER teams being less organized/ buttoned-up due to there being no pre-season? There is so much that goes into putting a good product on the field (which I think is the main goal), I don't think we can totally discount the importance of pre-season.

I get it, which is why I said I'm surprised the game hasn't changed that much. There is a ton of money in it and of course that's the primary motivator for most.
I would argue against the game "not having changed much", even since the time that Barber was playing. You rarely see defensive guys launching themselves headfirst into receivers and running backs anymore. And we can clearly see the difference in how QB's are hit. Like them or not, the recent rule changes have drastically affected that part of the game.

I understand not reading a post that you're not interested in.
I do not understand not reading the post, but then still commenting on it.
The studies are from 2022, 2019 and 2017. All recent. Nothing old. All relevant today.
Even though the first study you reference was released fairly recently (2017), the actual data comes from 10ish years ago:
Methods:
Thirty-eight NFL defensive players with a history of ACLR from 2006 to 2012 were identified. For each injured player, a matched control player was identified.

I had season tickets to Tech last year and got to see this guy a bunch. In person, he stood out as a massive dude who seemed to move around pretty well against solid competition (UNC, Notre Dame, Pitt). Tech had very poor QB play so they had to run it a ton, and the o-line did a pretty good job.

Have you watched NFL games recently? There are several teams with complete secondaries made up of back-ups and practice squad guys.
