i can give you the examples of why this isn't true, but my point was rhetorical anyway having more excellent players should be the goal. finding reasons as to why they may not be components of certain SB winning teams is missing the point imo

The game plan and execution on offense vs KC in the playoffs was Brady's best work bar none. And realistically it could only have been done w a QB like Allen. I do believe that is the style this team wants to play at this point. Unfortunately as shown by the result even a perfectly executed ball control game script doesn't beat the Chiefs in the playoffs.

Hope youre right👍

Prior to this season the Bills, in Allen's entire tenure, had never drafted a WR before the fourth round. So to start I wouldn't have done that

People have been talking about our lack of investment in wr for several years now The plan would have been a meaningful draft and FA strategy starting exactly when it became apparent Allen was the guy

Tyreek Hill Jefferson Adams Lamb Evans Cooper Chase Brown Kupp Previously Hopkins and Julio Jones Guys w the tools to succeed above scheme or QB

Welcome to the football messageboard since forever

Loved what I saw out of Kincaid last yr but he's still a ways off from best TE of all time conversations When I say we need a legit #1 guy I mean I think the Bills need it, not that you generally can't win a SB without one. Imo this specific team w all their attributes benefits most from a wideout of that caliber

I would count gronkowski and Kelce as functional equivalents The Bills only have 1/3 of your equation come playoff time...that balance has to be made up somewhere

The wideout issue is team specific I believe great offensive scheme and coaching alleviates the need for the kind of guy OP is talking about Short of that you need elite receiving talent ie real #1 caliber receiver

You don't need an elite QB to win a super bowl either but it helps

Chiefs have Kelce and Reid We have Kincaid and Brady Only in one of those situations is it acceptable to have league worst wideouts and expect good things

I know and like I said I largely agree w you 😂😂 I'm just giving you a hard time

Ok but if there's nothing at all to it you're spending a decent amount of energy defending the honor of a guy who's worth on the open market a 2025 5th round pick and negative 3 million dollars

You can easily put everyone who thinks otherwise on ignore Wasting time worrying about those posts is just a waste of time

My slightly irrational fear rn is that unencumbered by older, more experienced OCs w their own philosophies McDermott is going to have Brady install the kind of offense he told us he wanted in 2021: 'That has not been my message from Day 1, I can promise you that. If you were in the team meetings in training camp, you would know what style of offense I want. That identity needs to embody toughness'

The overwhelming majority of negative posts re this latest draft are reasonable critiques imo op is tilting at windmills

I guess you and OP can pat each other on the back from your emotional high ground? Like what is the point of this seriously, nobody thinks they know more than an actual NFL front office.

I think it's convenient that people like to remind other people to practice humility when they have a difference of opinion on a particular subject

Stop it, you're not an architect Thanks dude

I meant the fact that the FO knows more than the fans isn't in support of Beane and McDermott as much as it is in self deprecation if you think about kt Really anything we discuss here can be boiled down to 'the Bills know better'

I am going to give you the green agree checkmark for this Don't let it go to your head

I don't think knowing more than the fans is much of a flex tbh That shouldn't even be the minimum job requiremrnt

I legit can't think of one of the top of my head Maybe chargers?

Panthers last yr had thielen 😂😂
