full quote One ex-player recalls McDermott getting upset that the offensive linemen wore Jordans on Saturday walkthroughs because Jordans didn’t seem very lineman to him. Didn’t seem tough. He preferred the big men on his offensive line walk around the facility in work boots and Carhartt jackets. When players were upset about this edict, center Mitch Morse actually drew a Jordan logo on one of his shark cowboy boots. One source cited an assistant coach with kids who’d typically arrive for offseason hours about five minutes early (7:55 a.m.) and leave no more than five minutes late (4:05 p.m.) simply to help out as much as he could back home as a father. McDermott, quite perturbed, decided to add an hour to the workday. In his mind, if his coaches weren’t going to give him the “extra,” he was going to get the “extra” out of them. He started requiring coaches to stay from 7:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m., instead of 8 to 4. Even if there was a chance he wasn’t so punctual himself.

It's a hit piece, but crazy if even only half is true Says McDermott doesn't put in the hours, leaves early but demands other coaches stay late/postpone flights and vacations That he took over defensive playcalling in the AFCCG and possibly last drive of 13seconds game Claims Diggs hates him and basically makes the case that he's inevitably going to fail in the biggest moments

I hope that Beane stops listening to McDermott when drafting

@DrDawkinsteindid more work for you since 2018 Bills have drafted (according to draft value chart) 4,954.4 points worth of defensive players and 4,187.5 points worth of offensive players not including the Stefon Diggs trade. That comes out to 174points/offensive player and 261 points/defensive player. If you want to include Diggs trade they spent 199points/offensive player. -
They've been a tough follow speaking emotionally the last few seasons, no doubt But our brand of football is miles better than it was before all these guys got here so I'm still very much enjoying it

Joe Brady on the Allen/Davis Miscommunication
GoBills808 replied to Scott7975's topic in The Stadium Wall
I actually read something from an Eagles tweet that said Slay usually supposed to take the flat, so they may have messed this one up as well which would explain why Davis got so open dunno if there are different rules for adjusting your route based on busted coverage but presumably Allen would know if they messed up the switch because he's looking right at it -

I mean should I chew their food up for them too😂😂I'm not going to waste my time if people can't read a simple list and make their own inferences -

https://www.spotrac.com/nfl/transactions/restructure/ List of restructures this season https://overthecap.com/positional-spending List of offense vs defense spending showing since 2020 Bills spending the most in the league on defense, about average/below average on offense That's all I got I guess -

I mean the Chiefs restructured Mahomes just earlier this year -

GoBills808 replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
Again, have to ask you look at league averages. Other teams restructure as well. We spend a ton on defense relative to the rest of the league and especially contenders w franchise QBs. -

GoBills808 replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
I imagine they are going to do a bunch of restructures on the offensive side of the ball, which will bring that figure down Regardless, I don't see how the fact that we spend more on defense and less on offense is in question here...especially among teams who are considered contenders/have a franchise type QB contract on the books. Since 2020 we've spent the 6th most, 2nd most, 2nd most, and 2nd most on defense in the league respectively. There's no other team who comes close to the kind of consistent investment in defensive spending the Bills commit to over the last 3+seasons. -

lol thinking there is a 'lack of championship character' in KC is one the most ridiculously privileged of takes in football -

GoBills808 replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
My thinking on this has been basically...of the first group (the high spenders on defense), only the Vikings have anything that could be considered a QB in the midterm of a big deal (Herbert's hasn't kicked in yet), the rest are all still on rookie deals. I think that's pretty relevant to consider. You can afford to spend big on defense while you figure out your QB situation, but once you've got the QB and his deal you want to start putting the resources toward supporting that investment. At least, that's what the numbers say to me. Obviously the Bills have taken a different approach. -
Calling it now: Bills are going to at least reach the AFCCG
GoBills808 replied to Alphadawg7's topic in The Stadium Wall
And that's not even what was said 😂😂 The question posed to Allen was 'are you a big film guy?' and he answered yes Unsurprisingly that has come to mean he is not a big film guy lol -

GoBills808 replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
These are the figures I'm talking about, Bills spend at roughly league average on offense and a ton more on defense https://overthecap.com/positional-spending -

GoBills808 replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
How is the actual figure, relative to the rest of the league, on what we spend on defense meaningless in the context of a discussion about whether defense is prioritized? We spend more, in draft capital and actual salary/cap dollars, on defense not just compared to offense but compared the league averages as well And I think your cap figures for Allen/diggs are wrong too, their combined hit this year is about $32M -

Does the fact that we spent the 2nd most in the NFL on defense this season sway your opinion at all -

I'm just saying 4 defense first rounders to 2 on offense is not going to add up -

GoBills808 replied to margolbe's topic in The Stadium Wall
for 2023 we spend the second most in the NFL on defense https://overthecap.com/positional-spending offense spending 13th In 2022 we spent 6th most in the league on defense and 24th most on offense I imagine if we break down draft picks by point value it would show a similar story but if someone wants to do that work I'd be happy to be proven wrong -
