    Remember this?

     

     

     

    wow! thanks for sharing, I loved it from 2 angles, one: I like Cousins as a QB since he was the only thing around worth following for an underdog team in WAS. and two: how cool seems Allen at 21, and before knowing what to expect from Draft day, if I had seen this video before draft day, I would be pulling for my team to get him! even higher (via trade)  than where they actually did! this beer is for you :beer:

    If Watson can stay out of the afce, I don't see why the same 4 teams won't  be playing next year. 

    call it stats are for liars, or whatever, but the reason why is that same 4 teams playing the semis to the SB, back to back has not happened before, ever? I hope Buffalo is one of those 4 again, I couldn´t care less for who they play against...

    I agree. Dude is great. I love him as a QB. He’s no Mahomes. It’s not even close. Mahomes is on another level. Guy is calm, cool, collected. Allen looked tight and nervous for the first quarter and a half. Chiefs went down 9 and Mahomes didn’t flinch.

     

    Hopefully he learns to get there with experience. 

    This thread should be renamed to¨¨oranges versus apples...¨ or at least, green apples to California golden apples, in this instance you (for example) forget to mention Mahomes has been already to THREE AFCCh, and Allen once, each by their own merits, however the ¨calm factor ¨will come to Allen with his exposure to the stage...

    DUPED? LMAO

     

    Are you serious? You got DUPED the past four years.

     

    Is BILLSFANS.COM not fun for anymore? Isn't there a COVID and  Election Fraud thread you can play in over there?

     

     

    I confess... I bit, and went to the web page you quoted, just to find it is in the blocked list from my company server, what the heck went on in that site?? I digress...😅

    a doctor was addressing a large audience in Tampa. ‘the material we put into our stomachs is enough to have killed most of us sitting here, years ago… red meat is awful. soft drinks corrode your stomach lining. Chinese food is loaded with MSG. high fat diets can be disastrous, and none of us realizes the long-term harm caused by the germs in our drinking water. however, there is one thing that is the most dangerous of all and we all have eaten, or will eat it. can anyone here tell me what food it is that causes the most grief and suffering for years after eating it?’

     

    after several seconds of quiet, a 75-year-old man in the front row raised his hand, and softly said, ‘wedding cake.’

    This is an amazing way to start a thread, I bet two-years-old-sort-of-amazing, but still very fun!!🙃. 1st time I get into this topic, thanks for a good laugh! :beer:

    If Brady loses, Jim Kelly will no longer be the only QB with 4 SB losses. Go KC.

    I would not count the 52-17 masaccre in JK´s books, he was injured before the 1st QTR even ended, that was on Reich.... even if JK was the starter, not fair...

    I'm rooting for Tampa.  There, I said it.  I'm actually rooting for TOM FREAKING BRADY in an NFL game for the first time in my life.

    rooting sort of ¨before you retire go get´em and dismantle the Mahomes is God mantra, and avoid it grows to big!!¨, and it is maybe a hidden benefit, seeing the Pats***** fans crook on their chairs, seeing TB12 win and this is not going to count for them in the records...

    Unfortunately, people are going to kill themselves. Mathematically speaking, I’m surprised there aren’t more suicides of former players. Doesn’t mean it was caused by playing football in the NFL. 

    Kind of semi related, so I still beg your excuse if it seems it is not, but ourworldindata.com, (btw, a good site to get info about Global economy, education and other social issues, and which I follow for CV19 data), reports near to 800,000 deaths as a yearly rate for suicide, which is (shockingly) even greater (by at least a 100 K) than homicide yearly rate...

    So stop playing.  Go get a real job that pays 50 to 100k a year and see how fast you run back to the dark world of football.

    Let's face it folks threads like this one and the multi page threads on Watson & Stafford only confirm that Bills fans have a bad case of off season speculative syndrome.

     

    For the last 25 years we have approached every off season like a gambleholic approaches a poker game.  We have months to scheme preseason moves that will finally land the Bills a franchise QB and a playoff birth.

     

    But damn, this years Bills have spoiled that fun and now we have to exist in a world where we have a franchise QB and the Super Bowl is a legitimate goal.  Where's the fun in that?  I'm envious of Detroit fans who now can imagine all the pro-bowlers those 1st round picks will garner.  Or how Goff will return to his super bowl year.

     

    And imagine how much fun the Rams fans are having as they speculate on how their almost elite new QB, who never won much in Detroit, will lead their elite defense (the one Allen and the Bills torched but I digress) to the Super Bowl.

     

    And I can only guess at the ecstasy surging through Miami & Jets fans in anticipation of landing the Watson.  Who cares if they have to give up their first born child to get him.  Think of all the awesome scenarios for any team that lands a top 5 QB like Watson. The outcome is guaranteed just like when the Bills landed Bledsoe!

     

     

     

     

    Post of the morning!! 👊Hands down... albeit post of past Sunday morning, I know... but cincy-fan explains perfectly the board / forum´s dynamics of this offseason compared to the previous 25, including the one after Josh´s meltdown versus HOU in WC game...

    So now you're really going to think I'm crazy, admittedly I was thinking about this over a month ago, at that point, didn't think Tampa would make it to the SB. 

     

    Having said all that, for a couple months I've felt that 2021 would be the Bills best shot at winning the SB as their schedule is the easiest.  They play the NFC south and AFC south.  Throw in Pitt and KC too.  Yes they play at KC and at Tampa, but really feel one of these years Brady's age is going to catch up with him, it somewhat already has as he's really not the reason physically they are in the SB, it's more the defense.  While it certainly didn't happen this year with KC, typically there's always a SB hangover to deal with also.  I worry about Miami in particular if they get Watson. 

     

    But other than Tampa, the rest of the NFC south doesn't worry me too much, same with AFC south, Tenn and maybe Indy if they solve the QB spot could be tough, but both have some questions  Not all that worried about Pitt and Grandpa Ben. 

     

    So lets assume they lose to Tampa and KC, add all that up could see them going 12-4 to 13-3 again.  If they can't the last thing I want to blame it on is the schedule.

     

    So yes I have seen the schedule and that's the part that I'm excited about!

    hahaha...Everything happened because I replied in a very late mode, but I definitively agree with you, specially with your take thta your (as well as mine) point of view, is affected by timelines. The same than you (and maybe no one in TBD), saw TB12 in just another SB! 🙄, time a few moths ahead will maybe tell us, that i.e. if he loses this Sunday, he might hang the (All Star<9 experiment with TBY once and for all, or look his age. The intriguing idea for me, regarding our KCY match, is that it would very likely define who gets the bye in AFC... thanks for replying...:beer:

    I think this is going to be the Battle of the WR Muggings. 

     

    Tampa Bay was holding and mauling about the Green Bay WR all game. 

    Kansas City was holding and mauling about our WR all game

     

    Now they can hold and maul about each other's WR and the team that can run better, wins.  🤷‍♂️

    Hapless, I am a fan of your post, and really one not looking for brownie points...however this post of yours is as i target as your OT COVID posts, (when thread was alive...🙃),

    based on this, I would say TBY has the advantage with LF and (maybe?) RJII, thanks for helping me with my pick! ...:beer:

    I said about a month ago 2021 is the best shot for the Bills to go deep as they have a pretty easy schedule facing the AFC south and NFC south.  Excluding AFC East games as play them every year, the only really tough games I see is Indy at home and maybe Pitt, and At Tampa, KC, and Tenn.  But one of these years Brady will finally look his age.

     

    Forgot to add in Washington at a location to be determined.

    I keep reading the thread and I see with some surprise, almost no-one sees any issue with usfacing not one but TWO Super bowl 2020 teams, and IN THE ROAD, nonetheless....just sayin´🙃

    I agree with most of your observations, but not sure I like your solutions all that much!

     

    #1 Defensive Coaching.  I agree with the bend but don't break concept is what they are playing allowing them to move the chains.  But they've played the same the past two seasons with much better success.  This year though they were bending much more and even breaking more frequently was the issue.  So think the concept might still be fine, but need better players to reduce the frequency of successful drives by the opponent.

     

    #2 Defensive Line is a big issue, but drafting a pass rusher may help the defense in maybe 2023, but not next season.  This team is poised next year to make a deep run as IMO next years schedule is more forgiving so this is their chance.  For that reason would rather they sign an actual star FA edge rusher.  I'm fine with getting rid of Butler and Addison to pay this new guy with.  Think I would keep Jefferson though as can play multiple positions and is still only 26 I believe.  The Bills have used a fair amount of draft resources on the Dline as they've drafted; Oliver, Johnson, Epinosa, and Phillips, plus as stated Jefferson is only 26 so it's not like they've ignored this position.

     

    The Bills philosophy is we're going to wear you down with our depth and keep rotating solid, but not great players out there.  In 2018 and 2019 it worked, this year not nearly as well.

     

    #3 and #4  Agree with waiting a year on Edmunds and drafting an O-lineman pretty high, 2nd round sounds good.  A lot there will also depend on what happens between Morse, Feliciano, and Williams IMO likely only two of the three will be back, which two not certain.  Of the three would prefer Morse being the odd man out.

     

    #5  Running Back I don't think Christian Wade is the answer as big of a mess as the running game was this year.  I think I'd go with Williams ahead of him, but from a fan perspective wouldn't want to count on either being the solution for next season.  Obviously the coaches have seen much more of those two, and maybe they think one of them is ready, or they feel the biggest issue was run blocking.  Would make me nervous if Wade or even Williams is their best answer.

     

    #6 Tight End is like drafting an edge rusher.  You could draft a TE who in 4 years will be better than Kerce and Gronk combined, but counting on him as a rookie to look better than Knox is a stretch. TE is one of the harder positions to learn.  For those reasons would give Knox another year, though is likely they will want/need at least a #2 TE to replace Kroft, unless they feel Sweeney is ready for that role.  But that's risky with the heart condition he had as could just as easily be medically retired.

    I know you stated this as your opinion only, but have you seen the 2021 schedule? the one I saw in OneBillsLive, in an interview with G. Cosell (spell), done by Tasker and Brown, seemed pretty steep in terms of SOS, to me... I will look for it in a post from a few days ago, and see other source.

    the Bills will "be hunted."  Na.  The hunted teams are those that make the SB.  We need a running game/balanced offense, and a defense that can pressure the QB.

    Perhaps it's too early for some to start talking about next season. If that's the case for you, I understand.

    As for me, I'm already excited about the potential of the 2021 Buffalo Bills.

    It was quite clear watching last night's game -- and watching the entire season unfold, really -- that the Bills could DESPERATELY use a good run game. 

    The question remains, though: Just HOW do you go about addressing the running game? Buffalo recently spent third round picks on Singletary and Moss. I doubt they're ready to give up on either of them, nor should they. The Bills usually only dress three running backs on game day, with the third being a special teams contributor. Neither Singletary nor Moss contribute much on special teams.

    So what do you do?

    Do you draft another running back? If so, you'd probably better draft one earlier than round three. If Singletary and Moss aren't getting it done, what makes you think another third round or later running back will?

    Are you willing to part with such premium draft capital for a running back? Do you focus on replacing a guard or two, or the center? What do you do? 

    Knowing how aggressively Beane attacks roster weaknesses, and how much McDermott values the run game, I trust that Buffalo will actively seek to address this problem. But in the meantime, how do YOU suggest we go about it? This question does not seem to have any easy answers.

     

    I guess I wouldn´t add more options to the many you laid out here, however I´d like to ask, did you left FA RB out as an option? just because there is no good FA options that we know , or because you simply dont trust thta route? I see what TBY achieved with L Fournete  and think it worked wonders, despite the doubts on his character flaws.

    you deserve a ¨C´Mon man!!¨ moment of the week! of course BB meant haunted from within the division! it´s been 3 days, filled with good (and bad)approaches to get over the disappointment,

    let´s all go out and have a walk to refresh ourselves, before we point fingers to our elite level GM!😉
