    Reggie Ragland's play for the chiefs

    In all likelihood, it was probably not going to be a good fit once they decided to switch defenses.  With that being said, I felt like the guy never really got a fair shake in Buffalo.  The game before he was traded, he only had 3 snaps.  Coming off an ugly injury and not having played for a year, I felt like some more patience may have benefited the Bills in his situation.  It would appear he was still in the recovery process when they traded him

    Decision on starter vs. Chiefs is the fork in the road

    that forces McD to finally show his cards: is he all in on this year, or is he packing it in and making decisions for the future?

     

    Personally, with our D collapsing as it has lately, I'm ready to move on from this year, stick with the process and see if you have anything in Peterman.  And I'd be thinking real hard about whether I want Dennison to be the one entrusted with developing my first round QB.

     

    Starting to feel this way as well along the JUAN who is our Oline coach.

     

    Castillo should be canned today IMO. Kromer caught a lot of heat from fans for his off field antics but was a pretty damn good Oline coach. This hire has been absolutely horrible. This Oline play is also a direct resemblance to TT and NP's failures. We can't execute anything on O when our right side of the line get's destroyed every play, which in turn makes Dennison look bad as well.

     

    Being and OC, why didn't Dennison get to pick his staff? Castillo was hired if not mistaken before he was.

    Should the Pegulas Cash Out?

    How can you possibly say that the first time GM and head coach combos have failed miserably already? 

     

    They are 10 and 20 games in to their tenures. Just under 2/3rds of a single season for McBeane, and 1/4 of a single season for Botterill and Housley... 

     

    Neither have had a chance to build the team they want. Beane hasn't even had a draft or free agency yet (he came roughly 2 months after it had started). Botterill had 1 draft, after only 1 month on the job, with all of Tim Murray's old scouts who had been scouting for Tim Murray type players all year (although Botterill sure seems to have made the best of a less than ideal situation. The Mittelstadt pick looks like it could be a home run). 

     

    The way way I look at it - the Pegulas only recently put the people in place, from top to bottom, that they truly wanted. 

     

    They gave Whaley and Regier a chance to put their current teams over the top by opening the check books in a way we have NEVER seen in Buffalo. When have the Bills or Sabres EVER been cap teams? It may have happened in a random year or two, but they were both almost Always internal budget teams. We hired cheap coaches, cheap GMs, cheap scouts (and in the Sabres case they actually scouted off video tape!) etc etc. 

     

    When that didn't work out, they cleaned house and brought in the people they wanted. For the Bills it's McDermott and Beane. For the Sabres it was LaFontaine, which only lasted 2 months and then they were more/less stuck with Tim Murray. So they gave him a chance, and made the change to the guy they wanted - Jason Botterill. 

     

    So lets maybe give them more than 1/4 to 2/3rds of a season, yeah? 

     

    I think the Pegulas have been great for Buffalo. When have either of our sports teams ever been able to compete, salary wise, with the big boys of the league? As I said above, we used to go after the cheap hires and cheap feee agents. We'd watch our best players leave over monetary reasons. Remember when the Sabres were a true Cup contender and Presidents trophy team ('06 & '07) and we watched both of our co-captains and best players walk in the same offseason (Briere & Drury)? Remember when they used to try and recruit free agents by sending them a coach class plane ticket? Now they recruit with a private plane and yacht + the nicest facilities in both the NFL & NHL (locker rooms, gyms etc). Remember when we had bare bones staffs and put no focus on player development? Now we are on the cutting edge of the league with technology and player development staffs.

     

    I could go on and on about all the money they've poured in... and that's not even mentioning all the good they've done for the city of Buffalo. The businesses they've built, the jobs they've added etc. 

     

    They are new owners. They may make a mistake here and there but I have faith they will get it right. I am perfectly happy with our billionaire owners, who are also big fans of the teams they bought, and I am thankful that both of those teams futures are cemented in Buffalo for a very long time (as they've already said their kids will eventually take over once they are gone). 

    Thank you for a great post.

    Dareus is killing it for the Jags

    Lets see - who was on the field the second half of last season (because your boy was suspended the first half) when Ajayi, Bell and others ran all over us?

     

    Dareus not being here isn't the only reason this run D has caved.  He was hardly on the field when they were playing good run D.  What are you smoking?

     

    Let's talk about the right now, or this year then since you seem to have the answers. Love how you completely deferred to an entirely different D scheme last year under different coaches. 

     

    Explain the 180 degree stat flip for both D's with the exact same timing as Dareus leaves the Bills and joins the Jags please?  I heard your take on the opposing Jags rushing O's, but what about the Bills severe fall off?

     

    Stats don't lie, but I'm open to hearing others opinions.

     

    I understand the longevity of this move and why it was made. I just don't understand the timing at all when we were 5-2 and looking pretty damn good on Defense.

    I was wrong thinking most Bills fans are logical, practical, well adjusted and sane individuals.  Quite the contrary the majority of us are irrational, prone to outbursts, unstable, and quite possibly insane.

    I think I have to add this one as well.

    ....uh oh....a "voice of reason" in the PG-13 mud puddle.......Wrecks hiring was a Brandon move.....saw the texts to his buddies (who I know) saying, "so what do you think?"....I threw up in my car seat.....exactly why Pegula kicked him upstairs as Prez of Pegula Sport Entertainment TOTALLY out of operations, focusing SOLELY on business administration.....Pegula paid $1.4 billion for the Bills, $165 mil for the Sabres, built the Harbor Centre for $190 mil for starters and the guy is NOT committed to winning as well as Buffalo?....naw, the guy is effin' clueless........

    What ever, this is your Hot take as well. We have some serious ignorant ass fans on these forums. I can't believe I even read this ****

     

    Just sad all around. Why not find another team to root for instead of Pegula's Bills if he's so F'ing clueless.

    I was wrong about letting myself become even a little bit optimistic after a 5-2 start. I knew this team had major deficiencies, but I started to believe in them being serious overachievers. Now they're exactly what I thought they'd be this season. 

    This is also my fatal flaw as well. 

     

    I said the Bills would only win 4 games this year.

     

    I also was wrong about Peterman giving us the best chance to win last week. I still think you have to see more of him though to make a proper evaluation.

     

    I still Billieve in this coaching staff and future. I pray I'm not wrong here :)

    You're half right.  The problem here and the problem in America is that the internet gives trolls the ability to broadcast their deranged thoughts to the rest of the species.

    AS well as you Coach.

    Not that Terry would ever read this BS but what would he think of your hot take right now if he did? How about giving McD at least 2-3 years before tweaking out on ownership? 

    I do think the Rex Ryan hiring was a rookie owner mistake but not going to throw him under the bus like you. It does not matter what you, myself or the media says, they straight up OWN the Buffalo Bills and Sabres and can honestly do whatever the F they want with it. Crying about ownership on a forum does jack ****.

    LOL... Dareus  played about 20 snaps in 5 games (Hamstring injury late preseason & out versus Denver) and you think he was making such a huge impact?  Do you really think he is THE reason for the run D drop off here?

     

    Since Dareus has been with the Jags they have played Cinci, (Ranked LAST in rushing), Chargers (ranked 25th rushing) and Cleveland (ranked 23rd rushing).  Perhaps this is why there such a huge improvement in the Jags run D.

    Perhaps

    Then explain to me why the Bills have let teams rush for 600+ yds over the last 3 games when they prior only averaged 80 per game?

     

    The 180* stat flip for both D's doesn't raise a ? mark to many though, yourself included?

    The most important decision to ending this drought is coming up.

    I really hope they keep Tyrod until they have a better player.  The cap hit isn't any worse than whiffing on a big extension, and it gives us a chance to not play a rookie in the first couple of years.

     

    It drives me nuts the way the Bills seem to cut their best QB because he's not "good enough" when they don't have anyone better.

    Please give me examples on Bolded and note TT still plays here. Flutie?

    McD already a hypocrite by not committing to Tyrod at KC

    All along I've stuck to my convictions that this season was never a tank. Largely due to the non tank moves of extending Wood's deal, not cutting high priced vets like Kyle W etc. Starting  Peterman after Sunday's performance would change my view on that. It would be Tank McTankerson, Tank city. Can't see it happening. 

    It's over this year and I'm willing to accept it at this point. Would rather just see the young guys try and develop.

     

    Teams have averaged 45pts a game against us the last 3 weeks and we show nothing we can do to stop it.

     

    34, 47, 54, ___?  trend is spiraling out of control and KC nor the Pats will make it any easier.

    Whatever we do don't hack it like the 2004 Draft when Eli, Rivers and Big Ben came out and take another Loserman. Focus on 2 QB's and make it happen.

     

    Enough of the BS drafts picks that have don't jack squat over the past 18years. I swear if the Bills draft a DT with their first 1st round pick I might loss my **** and post my Dear John Letter here like Row33

    Plenty of time for us to spend the next few years signing and drafting guys for this regime’s schemes only to hire new coaches that will want to run something entirely different.

    This is what has me the most concerned of all honestly. Does our fan base, media and owner have the patience?

    My point is we if we keep St. Doug, obviously Schwartz stays as his DC too unless he would have got another HC offer.

    Marrone turned his back on the Bills and walked out on his contract.

     

    The Biggest Mistake is not hiring a GM and letting the GM hire his HC.
