Yes exactly It's less about replacing/adding players at this point it's about accumulating the most value

Yes you make my point but for the dumbest rule in pro football we aren't even in the game to begin with

That's the real context for the last drive as compared to the rest of the game It was really only close because we had somehow offensively managed to small ball our way to a one score game, the defense had been getting dog walked for 3+ quarters prior and we finally folded under that pressure

They were I compared it to the football equivalent of a no hitter It's so difficult to sustain that kind of offense and it ended up costing us in the biggest moment

Ok here is my issue w that analysis I firmly believe the goal was to score early and have the ball last as evidenced by the shot to Diggs. Once that fell through they entered into no man's land on a long drive that was almost certainly fated to leave too much time on the clock...modern NFL drives just don't last 8+mins. It's an impossible ask As for Allen's decision to go for the TD- it's a true 50/50 for me. Trying to run the clock out there imo is as risky as leaving time for KC to score...it honestly is one of my biggest issues wrt actual football acumen from top to bottom. The Bills rn play a naive brand of football that is at odds w properly managing their high leverage situations and the end of the Chiefs game was a perfect example

I believe that they did have a plan and it went off the rails after the Diggs drop and the drive wore on Would hardly be the first instance of poor game management in the critical moments 😂😂

big if true

There's no easy way to say this but in a thread full of bad takes this may be the worst

Is aikman better than Rodgers Ffs be better

Pretty sure Allen has the most playoff TDs/game and lowest playoff INT% in NFL history so no he literally cannot be better

Allen was better than Mahomes last year

There are a lot of parallels tbh I followed the Cam years in Carolina owing to my brother

No It was on an attempted tackle after throwing a pick https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/cam-newton-says-2016-shoulder-injury-affected-him-for-years

As always feel free to miss the point chasing a rhetorical flourish

It's mostly context for the 'we draft plenty of wideouts and no DTs' crowd

No but even including that it's not close, Diggs included is 780 iirc It's not a one for one imo, the rookie is cost controlled and more valuable

since 2017 the Bills have used 1,466 points of draft capital selecting DTs in that same time period they have drafted 146 points worth of WRs

allow me to clarify i am not interested in a straight bet on Diggs being traded my 'vibe' in this thread is very much aligned w +500ish proposal i WILL accept an even money bet that 90% of people posting in this thread think it's more likely Diggs isn't traded i don't think Diggs is a villain but a potentially useful trade asset

😂😂 ok chief enjoy yourself real men light their equity on fire whenever they get the chance

😂😂 Suddenly not so confident 'bet like men' lol

They've never drafted a wideout in the Josh Allen era before the fourth round. What are you talking about?

They do. What they actually don't draft is wideouts

That's not the point I was making The roi on dline has not been there. Time to take a different approach

I'll take that bet +550 he gets traded before season starts

We need a good wideout on a rookie deal Explain why we need another first round pick on the defensive line
