Good Breakdown on Bills, KC, and Cinci moving forward
Manther replied to newcam2012's topic in The Stadium Wall
Each year on average only 6 teams get into the playoffs that were there the previous year. We have done it 4 years in a row and 5 of 6. I'd say that is extremely impressive and we are better than the 7th team in the AFC until proven otherwise. -
Good Breakdown on Bills, KC, and Cinci moving forward
Manther replied to newcam2012's topic in The Stadium Wall
Totally agree. I think we have flexible contracts with everyone except Diggs and Von Miller (not including JA17). It is important to hit on draft picks. We can do better. We need more starters and less rotational players in the draft. -
Best Bills player to wear every jersey number (51-99)
Manther replied to BillsFan619's topic in The Stadium Wall
I would not, but, appreciate the thought -
Why is Tyrod Taylor not more revered in the Bills fan base?
Manther replied to ChronicAndKnuckles's topic in The Stadium Wall
Tyrod also averaged very low attempts per game. -
RIP, very sad

Beasley claims Dak is "best leader he ever played with by far"...
Manther replied to Big Turk's topic in The Stadium Wall
Beasley is a troller and missing some screws. He just wants clicks or attention. I think he may be cray cray and have some permanent head trauma. -
Dude, you ain't right

Is Sean McDermott our version of Doug Collins?

Totally agree! Go Bills, let's jump through our window! -

Very well said! Agreed! -

For sure and great call. Neither Coaches were ever dominate. Just hung around near the top. It is a good and a bad thing. The Steelers comparison is a good one. A very, very good franchise from the top down, like the Bills currently. It leads to consistent success. But, the Coach can look like the reason for consistent success or are they a product of a very well run Franchise. It is tough to tell. Great comparison and great conversation without an answer and you can't find a definitive answer as there are too many variables. -

Agreed, but, lean to spot on. I like McD, but, everyone has a ceiling and everyone has a correct seat on the bus. I am open to McD's ceiling and spot on the bus. -
I agree on Settle. I’m thinking without injuries he probably won’t make the team. He was a liability last year too.

Hopkins released by Arizona (7/16: signed by Titans)
Manther replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
Well, yes, totally agree and I want that advantage! Agreed! -

Manther replied to HappyDays's topic in The Stadium Wall
I think those are fair to good to real statements. I hope he is here for another 5-6 or more and a Championship! That would be the Cat's Pajama's. -
I can't argue this with the exception of Groot can possibly good to very good. Either way it was a good pick at the end of the 1st round. But, I agree with both of your overall points.

Overall, I agree without digging deep. I think we take another OL to make 9 and not sure on who the cut would be. Time, camp, injuries up to the beginning of the season usually sort out the bottom of the roster. Some thoughts in no particular order... - Hamlin ok to play? Marlowe I like, but, the Bills didn't dress him or play him much last year. 4 or 5 safeties? With LB a question mark, we could roll with 5 safeties - if Settle doesn't show better in camp does he deserve a roster spot? With Phillips injury history, probably need to keep Settle - if the young kids show well on ST's do we cut Neal or Matakevitch? Neal frees up a decent amount of cap to use to plug a hole we discover before the season starts. Neal can also help with the LB issue due to Nickel - Benford to safety? We will see as the off season progresses. That changes the CB and S rooms - 9 OL minimum, maybe 10 - Quinton Morris should make the roster. I don't know why we didn't use him more last year

I think LB will be fine and hopefully I am right. It could easily be the weak link. Looking at the CB's was what looks like the biggest, glaring need to me, but, could be fine. Overall, I think Beane did a fantastic job on this roster and it is the best it has ever been (no pun intended). I think we have a strong roster with question marks at LB, CB and OL. Injuries could speed up the question marks. We have been above average health wise with the Beane/McDermott era with the exception of last year. I am hoping to get back to the above average health years.

Agreed. And, one step further, they SHOULD allow teams in the playoffs to dress a 3rd/emergency back up even if they are on the PS. The goal is to be competitive and have a good game to watch.
