    McDermott & Beane Extended Through 2027

    Like McD in 2017 & 2019, Belichick got in on an easy schedule with 8 of his wins coming from non-playoff teams and 7 of them coming from mostly the worst teams all with losing records.  As with any coach, I'm not going to hand out particularly credit for capitalizing on an easy schedule, the "you can only play who's on the schedule" rap aside.  That's true, but it does not alter things one iota.  He got obliterated in those playoffs too, which says more than beating 8 easy teams en route to 10 wins.  

     

    Anyway, no interest in debating McD v. BB, or even BB otherwise.  The fact stands, that in 10 other seasons without Brady, Belichick's track record as a head coach wouldn't have gotten him anything else other than another DC job.  Meanwhile, Brady went on to win another SB with a relatively average on a good day head coach, while leading the Bucs to a 32-18 record otherwise, something that that franchise has never achieved in its entire existence.  

     

     

     

    Again, not really the point.  

     

    The question remains, is the talent on this team being optimized?  

     

    it'd be a great poll question.  Go ahead and pose it.  

     

     

    They were 13-3??? That's optimal!

    Stop whining!

    In the heat of the game it's understandable but months before the games start. Now that's something a bit obsessive. Love the Bills and Sabres but they are not even on my list of things most important to me.

    Our standard as fans back in the '90s was a lot different.  

     

    The drought era took its toll on the fans here.  Now a good regular season record and simply "making the playoffs" is good enough.  

     

    I remember being massively dejected with every Super Bowl loss except for the Skins one, which I kind of expected.  Lead foot Rypien had the best or one of the best OLs in NFL history.  

     

     

    I've been around since the AFL days. Drought actually makes me enjoy this team more. Those Super Bowl losses were tough but I still got to watch a great team. I like football for the game . I would rather have consistent winner year to year than just one year run to the championship. Point is is the championship all we want. Of course we want a ring  but all is not lost if we don't get it either.

    Coach and GM aside I find it interesting that so many fans can't enjoy a team that wins so many games. I've criticized the team in areas I think we may have them overrated but in spite of that they've won a lot of games lately. Are some fans of championships more than fans of football..... Just asking?

    Cowherd has it in for Bills

    When Dan Synder still ran that team, I'm literally shocked that Cowherd wasn't given a shot as GM, or the Lions, or something like that.

     

    Or members of sports forums. We fans/sports talk hosts talk sometimes like we really know more than coaches.......we don't, we know less. Still we enjoy the back and forth.😁

    Diggs NOT at mandatory minicamp, McDermott "very concerned" DAY 2 UPDATE: He's back

    What about my statement is not true?

     

    We heard of some issues Diggs had in Minnesota. A lot of us, to include myself, didn’t give a whole lot of credence to perceived issues.

     

    Four years later, one player doesn’t show to a mandatory session. This after the last time we saw him he was flapping his arms on the sidelines like he was going to take flight while yelling at Allen.

     

    Diggs is a great talent. He also appears to be emotionally fragile and doesn’t handle adversity all that well. The social media stuff is down right stupid and further shows the “me” in him. 

    I believe this is accurate. Some fans may not want to hear it. I also believe it's Diggs being who he is and will be there in camp and play.

    Wait and see mode for this.  Diggs could have left for a number of reasons.  I have no issues with most of his "antics" if you will (i.e. his sideline passion, cryptic tweets, etc.).  Would like for him to address why he wasn't in practice today, but honestly, if the dude shows up for real practices near preseason, I could care less.  The dude is hyper competitive and flies off the rails sometimes.  I can deal with that if he puts up the stats he does year over year.

    He's a wide receiver......... Nuf said😎

    Reasons for optimism, pessimism

    My concern is not the Cincinnati game it's the second half of the season looking very vulnerable. They made wins look harder than they should have been. I know they had some mental challenges and things happening but that last half they looked underwhelming for what people expected in my opinion.

    Should Josh Allen be tougher on Diggs?

    It's not for McD or Beane to deal with. Diggs' tantrum was directed 10 feet from Josh's face. These 2 need to work it out between them. And yes it's not the end of the world that Diggs is an OTA no show. But I think 99% of Bills fans consider these 2 our leaders. Leaders show up to voluntary workouts. 

    I'm part of the 1% that doesn't think Diggs is a leader. Just a great receiver but not a leader. Also may be in a similar minority that doesn't score leadership in decibels one yells at. Allen is a leader.JMO

    This will be a hot take to most, but Allen is already the greatest QB in Bills history.

    Disagree...... At some point he may become that but too early to crown him at this point. I love what he's shown thus far. The game has changed since the 90's as it's now a passing league.

    There is only 1 player in the NFL bigger then Allen and that’s Mahomes. 
     

    No one from those 90s teams can say this when they were at the peak of their powers.  
     

     

    Allen is the biggest superstar in the history of this city.  
     

     

    Ranked:

     

    Allen 

    Hasek 

    Kelly 

    OJ

    Thurman 

    Bruce 

    Couldn't disagree more.

    For the Bills in my lifetime only two are on the superstar level with #17 and that's #32 and #78. 

    No Kelly? Lofton? Simpson? Over the years we've had superstars depending on your valuing system. Maybe Cornelius Bennett and Thomas? Hall of Famers must be superstars one thinks.
