Buffalo Boy

Two last names, actually ….. Whaley and Watkins 😔

You didn’t read: A: The premise of this thread B: Plenty of posters who have made the very point that we can still make a deep run AND win the SuperBowl . But, yeah , it’s me🤷‍♂️

I agree. But, what is being brought in behind them is an unknown and represents a re tooling, not just physically but also chemistry-wise( leadership-wise). Ergo, that window closed and we are back in a building mode, maybe not square one but we are squarely out of the Favorites category. The only reason we are near the top… Josh. The same reason this regime has gotten anywhere. The ultimate cover for mediocre coaching. My point is, the ultimate leader keeps trying to place blame on others when the buck should ultimately fall at his feet. I’ve seen enough to realize the only way we win it all is to fluke our way into it. Should that suck? NOPE!!!! But, that Isn’t a plan. That’s hope and wishful thinking. Taking Josh or Mahomes out of the equation, if they had any other QB , what would your percentage be? My LAMP, my direction. I went through 17 years of not talking about the playoffs. Getting there is not good enough unless you like always being the bridesmaid.

Remember Marino, Fouts, Moon, Esiason……The time to strike is when the opportunity presents itself. 2021 was an epic fail and this opportunity has closed. McD will keep it permanent closed. Giving him a second shot, a start over with essentially a whole new rebuilt squad is ludicrous.

Unless your D consistently fails in dramatic fashion almost every playoff. I feel he should get credit for the Baltimore game but then I think I should consider : It was Lamar AND a single game preserving/changing play by a DB that was amazing and somewhat improbable at the same time. Josh played PERFECT ball two years ago, historically perfect and what did it get us? Last game, he played out of his mind and a bunch on here were trying to blame the loss on him. WTAF? Thank you Eleanor!!! It was gracious of you to sign it for me😊

Time to stop ball washing a loser coach who can’t get you there Pollyanna😘

Sammy Watkins was a great, can’t miss two # 1s WR…. Let’s try it again? You keep your picks, and through shrewd drafting we can be in the catbird seat Next year with multiple starters on rookie contracts. This year is a rebuilding year. Accept that for the fact it is and stop pissing away capital, both monetary and draft, on quick fix gambles. 👆☝️

Said this earlier, Sophomore slumps are real and winning the off season often doesn’t translate to the real games.

A couple TDs and back breaking uncontested catches? Old Kelce made a mockery of our piss poor D in the last game.

He was worth what he was worth and I trust that Beane turned over every rock he could during the process. Having to give up picks is what irks me but this is classic addition by subtraction, albeit one season too late.

Da Fug?!?! Which skill? Breaking through the LOS on a carry and averaging over a yard less than Cooke while looking patheticly slow in comparison?

Nope!!! I’ve been assured by multiple reputable posters on this here Wall, people in the Know, that we are fine. Nothing to see or question! The Bills got this😉

Other than QB and Tackle, what is the hardest position to learn? And N. Peterman says high back😁

Yeah, but were they playing for McD….. the guy who put rookie Cooke in the dog house? Cooke who was averaging 5.7?!?! A guy who only had to have the ball handed to him, not run routes. The idea that a rookie ( or rookies) are going to come in and BE ALLOWED to contribute goes against what we know about this HC.

THIS is how a shrewd GM does it!

Kinda like the D🤔

Because this staff has shown a propensity to stock the O side? I know they did last year but two years in a row? Couple that with the fact with our S and LB situation and if I’m a betting person ( which I’m not) my money is on a S or LB in the first two picks this year. Also, I know scared money don’t make money but after Sammy I’m reticent of trading a first to move up for a “ Sure fire, can’t miss” rookie WR.

Excellent and reasonable point….. but half this board wants to trade the farm away for a single rookie WR 😒

Uhh Sophomore slump🤔

Uhhh, something about “ Freaking out”????

Acknowledging the first salvo of a rebuild and it signaling a closed window AND HC coaching malfeasance isn’t a freak out. Keeping McD? Couldn’t agree more.

I wouldn’t call McD a Pansy but I get your point😉 Yes, Our first window is closed. McD should have been axed. Giving him another shot at this during Josh’s prime years is stupid.

The is resigned to McD not being the one sentiment. Only thing keeping us in pace is Josh… also the one covering up a ton of HC warts. W/O McD, I agree. we were the hottest team and missed our chance do to egregiously bad coaching decisions

Want a redo? Happy Diggs is gone but no, not going to be fine. Told ya so😘 Keeping McD IS thumb twiddling
