Aren’t all offensive coordinators offensive minded ? It doesn’t really matter if the OC or the HC is calling the plays, you’re getting an offensive minded coach either way.

Blame the Pegulas. Having to pass on a QB because the new coach didn’t the new GM to have no say in the pick. It’s all tied in to the Pegulas hiring Rex. They should have totally cleaned house and had a new GM in place as well. Total tire fire that could set the team back years.

Yay.....

Or did the Bills trade McCarron too soon ?

I don’t think it would have mattered if Peterman was named the starter back in July.

Time will tell...

Most fans think he’s just a speed WR with poor hands, They’ve seen his kind come and go over the years. Foster has a lot to prove thus far, it’s hard to say they’re wrong.

She likes tight ends... going deep , looking for the long one.

Agreed. I think this is actually one of the winnable games on the schedule, even if it were going to be good weather. The conditions make it a bit more favorable as well.

I don’t think many fans have high hopes for this offense, but if they’re terrible fans will complain. That’s just how it is, even when expectations are modest. It is true that offenses are usually behind the defenses early in the season; perhaps that gives the Bills a better chance in this game of surprising the Ravens. I’m not counting on it by any means. The sloppy conditions might balance things out a bit and lead to a few turnovers.

It’s a little easier to accept a “RELAX” when it’s coming from an Aaron Rodgers with a good team around him. The Bills offense has to prove themselves credible before relax can apply after a poor performance.

I think Troup was worse because the Bills had needed a TE for years and they passed up Gronkowski to draft Troup. No one great was selected after Brooks in round 2 , and Gronkowski wasn’t exactly a secret. He was a 1st round talent coming off an injury and everyone knew he would go somewhere early in round two. I don’t recall if Brooks got injured his rookie year or whatever, but to me Troup’s futility coupled with the forgoing of Gronkowski makes Troup the worse pick of the two. Maybe because Brooks was so long ago and the team was still pretty good after that. Just my opinion, you see it differently and that’s fine.

I said a “decent stint as ..l” not a “decent “DB . A stint is a period of time at a job . 5 years is above the NFL average. It means nothing about the quality of the job holder. He did ok for himself. There is nothing to admit. I never said he was any kind of good player, or even draft pick. There absolutely have been worse second round picks made by the Bills. Troup was a worse pick than Brooks, for example. I don’t even think he ever suited up for the team. That is worse.

You are misconstruing what I said about Brooks. I said he had a “ decent stint” as a DB. That doesn’t make any judgment on the kind of player he was. The average NFL career is still somewhere around 3 years. Brooks was in the league for 5. That’s a decent amount of time and he did OK for himself. He was nowhere near a top player in the league, nor are the players you mentioned. For the very few who ever get a chance to be an NFL player, sticking in the league as a backup, ST player or whatever for 5 years is doing better than average. Also, just a side note: I don’t think Brooks was drafted by Polian. He was fired after SB XXVII, and Brooks was drafted in ‘94. That would make him a John Butler draft pick.

I don’t care about stats or how bad Brooks was as a WR or a draft pick. He managed to hang around in the NFL for 5 years and that’s doing ok for himself. Decent, in other words. He wasn’t a starting CB or anything , just a DB in the league. If I had to pick a worst 2 nd rounder for the Bills it would be Torrel Troup ( ?). He was picked while Gronkowski was on the board and barely suited up for the Bills due to constant injury issues. Don’t know if he ever even appeared in a game. Was a higher 2nd rounder than Brooks as well. Anyway, it doesn’t have any effect on the validity of Brook’s opinions. That is the larger point.

He had a decent stint as a DB and managed to stick around for a few seasons. Not a good WR though. Still has nothing to do with the validity of his analysis. The Bills Oline is a huge area of concern right now.

Yep, they know it’ll help sell more overpriced sweatshop -produced shoes to minority youth , by peddling the idea that it’s cool to hate cops. Great job Nike. Funny how so many that feel the NFL policy on protests was bad because it showed the NFL only cares about money love this move by Nike. Then justify it by saying “ hey, Nike is in business to make money”.

Nah. He just wasn’t all that enthused about playing zone D and made it known. The “ process” weeded him out.

This. I think it was the beginning of “ Ralph is cheap”. Anyway, the guy was a UDFA and they had him cheap for awhile. When it came time to pay him as a LT they traded him. He’d still be on the Oline today. Guy was a player.

The Bills organization post- Wade Phillips was truly bush league and something of an embarrassment. They provided Sully with plenty of material to write his column. Their constant bungling brought a droning sameness to his writing, but there’s that old saying about the messenger. The Pegulas didn’t get off to a great start bringing in sexy Rexy and his clown show buffoonery. I give Sullivan credit for not going along with a change in format that he felt was lacking. It would have been easier to stick around than to stick with his convictions.

I found it refreshing to hear how the players really felt about this, instead of going right to the cliche book. Right or wrong, it was interesting.

One team is serious about winning another Super Bowl. The other team is well, the Raiders.

It was worse than the Seahawks mindlapse a few years ago. It was a whole quarter of stupidity!

Around 200 net. I can see a few sacks being given up here. One TD to go with a couple INTs.

If he sucks you bring Ryan back. Or someone else. I just can’t get too worked up over a Punter. Maybe if the “ Guy” they cut was Ray. He wasn’t.
