Wide Receiver Train Full Speed Ahead- CHOO CHOO!
LABILLBACKER replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Other than maybe BJ Hill, there's not much available in FA. Hill would cost you 8-9/ yr. We gotta take advantage of a deep DT draft and get a couple monsters. -
Wide Receiver Train Full Speed Ahead- CHOO CHOO!
LABILLBACKER replied to Pete's topic in The Stadium Wall
Even that decision we kinda screwed up. Could you imagine having Justin Jefferson instead of Diva Diggs from 2020- 2024? I was one of them and obviously I gave our regular season victory way too much value. The Chiefs are alot like the Kobe Lakers. They can cruise into the playoffs, then they flip this massive switch where their coaches & players just dominate. -
Absolutely love all these ideas except Cooper @ 3yrs. I'm not paying him to be a decoy which is basically what he was. I'm letting Rousseau & AJE walk after next season. Extend Josh, Cook & Shakir. If Myles becomes too expensive (pick wise), call the Raiders for Mad Maxx. And pray we hit on DE/ DT this April.

Our top priority is pass rusher. All resources must be spent here. I don't trust Beane drafting an elite DE, so we better be prepared to offer a trade with the Raiders for Maxx. He's still young and a proven commodity. Our 2nd priority is a monster DT in the 320-340 range. Maybe a diamond that turns into a Chris Jones or at least Kyle Williams. The 3rd priority is a speed WR who can stretch the field. I'm not sure we're keeping Cooper? I'm not sure Coleman will ever separate? These are the top 3 priorities. I wouldn't be upset if we drafted 2 from each position. Once the DL is improved, you won't be as dependent on pro bowl dbs. 4th & 5th priority is CB then Safety. If we shore up these 5 critical positions, we'll be on track to attack KC again.

Another stupid strategy...let's rotate a bunch of Jags so the Jags stay fresh. Did he learn this crap in Carolina?

Hard to beat the Chiefs and the refs every post-season
LABILLBACKER replied to ChronicAndKnuckles's topic in The Stadium Wall
I said 3 hours before the game we didn't stand a chance. We had a good enough team to beat them. But the marketing gods were not on our side. Mahomes is in every commercial. Reid and Kelce also have multiple commercials. Mama Kelce, Taylor Swift and her 150million followers. Even the SB logo is in KC colors. We didn't stand a chance......... Maybe after they're handed this 3 peat and Travis & Tay ride off in the sunset. Then and only then might we be considered for the same type of favoritism that KC/ NE have enjoyed. It just sucks that the entertainment/ revenue angle of the NFL takes precedence over competitive fairness. -
He'll get cut June 1st. Makes the most sense.

Thank you....someone who's glass isn't half full while wearing rose colored glasses. We have exactly 1 elite player on this team...17 and that's it. Cook is approaching that status very quickly. Dion & Spencer are good tackles but hardly elite. We have no elite WR'S or TE'S. Milano was the closest defensive player to elite but constant injuries have ended that narrative. Oliver, Rousseau Benford, Taron and Bernard are good but not great. The rest of our defense are just rotational Jags. We don't need elite players at LB or DB, but for McD's scheme to work, he must have at least 1 elite player on the DL.

Name me 1 new clever play Brady implemented for this game. Nothing
-
I'm just shocked Brady didn't call another tush push on 4th & 5. 7th time is a charm.
-
I'd have that same stare too if my players and coaches were constantly failing me in support. He knows the Bills history. He knows the weight of all Western NY is on his shoulders. I guarantee you even his coaches expect him to " just go out and make a play" rather than scheming up better plays to support him. Those failed tush pushes were a testament to how weak our coaching is. Throw in his fellow players not stepping up ( besides Cook, Hollins) and that stare is more than justified.

It Goes Back to 13 Seconds, Doesn't It?
LABILLBACKER replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
I'd rank him 13th behind all those guys. He's a better HR administrator than he is a game day coach. -
It Goes Back to 13 Seconds, Doesn't It?
LABILLBACKER replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
It's too late. The window landing Ben Johnson / Jim Schwartz is over. I don't even trust Brady taking over this team. So basically like so many fans, I have to psychologically convince myself that winning 12 games every year and a playoff win is the pinnacle. We will hoist our Schotty trophy to the sky every year. -
It Goes Back to 13 Seconds, Doesn't It?
LABILLBACKER replied to st pete gogolak's topic in The Stadium Wall
Yes, 13 seconds was a coaching abomination and gave us a little peek through the looking glass. McDermott makes the same mistakes Levy did. The only difference is Marv had multiple HOF players to screw up. McDermott has the greatest Bills qb we're ever going to see in our lifetime to screw up. In critical high leverage games, the coaching across the field is always better. It's just too exhausting to be a Bills fan. And I'll never be able to convince the stubborn McD supporters to actually see what's right in front of their face. It's pointless.... -
Not using James Cook on final drive a head scratcher
LABILLBACKER replied to Returntoglory's topic in The Stadium Wall
Then teach his ass how to block. He had 21 tds this season. Develop your damn players or get out. -
Hard to beat the Chiefs and the refs every post-season
LABILLBACKER replied to ChronicAndKnuckles's topic in The Stadium Wall
Staratore, Blandino, Nantz, Romo all agreed he got the 1st. I think it's safe to say that every fanbase besides KC feel this way. This "gentle massaging" of games has been going on since the start of Brady's career. -
I agree....Rousseau will never go beyond 8 sacks/ season. Maxx can give you 10-14 on a good year. Send Groot off like Gabe & Tremaine. Go after Crosby and keep drafting DE's. Maybe one finally blossoms? And AJE is gone after next season too.
-
He always makes one more play then us....so yeah he's really great.

Sean is the ultimate poser or snake oil salesman. He'll sell you on Christianity and character, Process and culture. Yet when the bell rings and it's time for him to do the most important part of his job, game management. He fails.... I'll never trust him again. He is 100% in charge of hiring all the several people who he's had to fire. Call them scapegoats or just underwhelming hires, it doesn't matter. Sean hired them. He's a reflection of his own hires. This year the planets all lined up. I doubt they do that again in my lifetime.

good comments from Bills players in this new Athletic piece
LABILLBACKER replied to dave mcbride's topic in The Stadium Wall
I love how all year we speculate that new "never before seen" plays are on the horizon come playoff time. Yet every year they never come. We ran 1 trick play all season and it was a complete disaster almost resulting in Josh being done. I'm grateful for Brady bringing more control to Josh's game but I just to envision him as ever being innovative and clever like Reid or even a Ben Johnson type. .....and to answer your last question...because they don't have any. A sad & pathetic byproduct of process & culture. -
Lost in the sauce: Outstanding Performances vs KC

Big Mack's not leaving either.... -

Yeah, we're not letting Cook get away. -
That couldn't possibly be more identical to the Charles Clay drop. Josh is surrounded by 🤡🤡.

Opinion: Bills SHOULD hire Doug Pederson as assistant HC
LABILLBACKER replied to MrEpsYtown's topic in The Stadium Wall
Exactly...this albeit a good idea, would be struck down immediately by Sean feeling threatened by Doug. Sean insists to have full control over his failed Defense- Scheme.
