  1. Handoff to McCoy into the middle of the line.
  2. Yes. Also depending on what is done with the inherited roster. A roster purge a la McBeane should add about two years to the timetable.
  3. I think today may be a trend breaker for the Defense. I hope I’m wrong. If the offensive ineptitude continues, does the fight go out of the dog ?
  4. Interesting. When the Bills selected Watkins in the 2014 draft, fans ( and pundits) panned the move because there wasn’t a legit QB to throw him the ball. Before the 2018 draft, fans were clamoring for a QB because it’s obvious you draft the QB first then get the weapons .Everyone knows this, look at Matt Ryan and Julio Jones you know? So which is it ? While Mahomes likely wouldn’t be having identical success in Buffalo, his abilities to run an NFL offense vs Allen’s are apparent. I’d venture he’d be putting up more than 80-100 yards passing per game.
  5. You brought up SWs draft status, not me. Obviously that draft decision had zero to do with current Bills management.
  6. He looked best in a few games back in 2015. Pretty major disappointment since then.
  7. That’s punishment for having Pats* players on your fantasy team.
  8. Means nothing in the big picture of what he might be doing in Buffalo. He’d likely be a bigger part of the Bills offense if still here than on a team with a plethora of targets. ( still he managed the most TDs of any Rams WR last year with 8. Using two first rounders to select SW pretty much assured he’d never live up to some mythical draft status. Two firsts should be reserved for QBs only.
  9. I’d argue that it’s not constantly starting over, but starting over and continually failing .The amount of time it’s taking is also real, not just an apparition.
  10. With the exception of the Watkins error and #’s 7 and 8 in the incorrect order, the list is a fairly accurate assessment. I don’t think the OP was trying to twist anything, just a couple of mistakes. There might not have been a reasonable way to retain Woods ( and Goodwin had yet to dedicate himself to football) but there was a way to keep SW in the fold.
  11. Beane and McDermott have shown a penchant for drafting a single player with multiple picks, so yes. Last time they traded back they passed on Mahomes. Doesn’t look like a brilliant move right now.
  12. Is autotype doing the “DaBoll “thing too ? I’m pretty sure it’s Daboll , but often see DaBoll used.
  13. I’d say a Vet QB, an accomplished QB coach plus a top tier Offensive Coordinator. Then you’ve got a fighting chance to be good.
  14. Could be , but they aren’t exactly the ‘70s or 90’s Cowboys. Boring imo. Of course, most areas only get one late game and fans will watch it anyway. I’d rather watch the Rams any day. Are the Cowboys the draw, or just a late afternoon football game?
  15. IF everything from FA signings to draft picks work out AND Allen can actually play QB. That’s a pretty big ask. Perhaps they manage to get some of it right and are back to where they began. The step back could be wasted time that runs out on them.
  16. The lake effect snow is actually right smack dab in Orchard Park and even further south. Not downtown Buffalo. There would be plenty of places to party pregame and a covered stadium would open things up to a more upscale fan. Not that it’s going to happen anytime soon, but a new downtown stadium wouldn’t be the apocalypse you make it out to be.
  17. So they took a ( borderline ) playoff team from last year and made it measurably worse. That passes for progress ?
  18. No kidding. Freaking Cowboys on late game here in BUF ( and it looks like most everywhere else) practically every week this season. Who decides this crap anyway?
  19. Who had a half dozen red flags against drafting him with a high pick. But then again, not surprising considering they fell for the “ fools gold” preseason by Nathan Peterman. Their ability to evaluate QB talent is suspect to say the least.
  20. Yeah, after the imminent prime time MNF debacle vs New England sounds about right.
  21. I’m already down to dry heaves after watching a few minutes of Peterman on Sunday, so Anderson starting is just as well.
  22. Fans have been sold a bill of goods. The team was 9-7 last year and managed to make the playoffs. Improving the team enough to extract two more wins going forward ( 11-5 is a pretty solid record in the NFL year in and year out) was within their reach. They decided to take things unnecessarily downward. There is no rule book saying a team must scrape the depths in order to be perennial contenders. This FO has completely bungled the Bills.
