BuffaloBillsGospel2014

My first chase card was the 1986 Donruss Jose Canseco rated rookie, I remember going into my local card shop where the owners were all smoking and the ash trays had like a million cigarette butts over flowing. Now greed has run rampant in the hobby, can't even buy a cheap hobby box of cards for less than $250 it seems. Dave and Adams sends people out and rounds up all the retail boxes around all the Targets and Walmarts or at least did at one time I'm not sure what's going on now as I've taken a break and getting way too pricey for me plus I see more and more fakes/scammers.

You do realize that he did those in his off time right? You really think he's doing commercials during the season? He can't do commericals because the team is in a funk?

Yeah I heard and read about the draft picks as well.

I don't think he was sitting around waiting for a phone call, I think he called around about all of those WR but he clearly focused on Waddle and Williams or at least that's what he put out to the media because several of the big name anylysts/reporters have reported it so maybe I'm wording something wrong I'm not sure because I never said he never talked to any other team I just think his main focus was on those 2 and in focusing on them lost out on the others maybe that is better wording?

Are you asking me a question? I have no clue what actually happened but the way it's coming off from what I'm reading and hearing is that Beane went hard after Waddle and Williams and spent most of his time with those teams waiting to hear from them and missed out on players like Shaheed, whether or not that's the truth I have no idea if you have heard something else please feel free to let me know.

Sounds like the guy we already have sitting at home with 0 interest, Mecole meet Keon.

I don't think alot of us hate the idea and I don't want to speak for others but I don't think there is any way McDermott and his 1902 fundamental football philosphy matches with a dynamic offense like Daboll had. Plus if the rumors were true I wonder if Daboll would every play for McDermott again but I sure would love to see that reunion even if it were just as a consultant or however they list these guys when they come back.

The bar is set so low.

in my opinion it's both, the WR's don't seem to separate or at least separate fast enough but it's also on Brady, why does this guy continue to not get Cook involved in the passing game? If Coleman isn't an outside WR move him into the slot and see if he can become dominant there. Move Shakir to the outside and see if he still has the same juice there. TRY SOMETHING other than just putting out the same stale offense that heavily relies on Cook putting up 200 yards each week.

Maybe 1 that isn't a gimmick WR like Samuel? A true #1 WR who he can't take off the field and becomes a security blanket when he's having games like today. You saw it on the last drive that Allen was literally doing everything on his own because these WR's cannot get open.

It would be fitting that this regime would take yet another defensive player.

Imagine thinking Gabe Davis who wasn't even good enough in Jacksonville is the savior of the WR group that's how terrible Beane is at drafting and acquiring WR talent since Diggs.

Now these idiot coaches are trying to get Allen killed.

What will that do? McDermott will still be the HC.

You need to keep trying until you get 1, doesn’t have to be a 1st rounder every time but you have to try.

Has he turned the corner or was it just 1 solid game where he played out of his mind? I really hope he’s turned the corner but I know by now not to get too high or low.

This just infuriates me more, Beane refuses to upgrade the WR position in this past draft then goes on to scold the WGR morning show and now was said to be in on several WR talks at the deadline and then spends all his time trying to trade with division rivals who probably milked it out just so Beane couldn’t go after anyone else, you sir got PLAYED!

Until the playoffs come and then we forget how to catch, drop passes and nobody can get open, nothing wrong with complaining about it as we all go to games, spend money on merch and are fans, what else are we supposed to do?

I fault nobody if that's what you truly belive but for me I'd say we have the worst WR group of any playoff team and I'd even go as far as to say we may have the worst WR group in the entire NFL.

Diggs did exactly what the team hoped and that was elevate both players, I have no beef with the trade at all and wished he'd do more like this deal.

I agree and I wasn't even that upset that he didn't pick up anyone at the deadline (more surprised) but hearing the "I tried" speel just doesn't fly with me (not that it matters because I can't do a thing about it lol).

I guess we'll save it for Coleman 2.0 next season 😀

Yes so was DK.... Oh i see why you said that. I just mean't there were some guys out there in FA and trades like DK and Pickens, my bad.

Man hearing that Beane press conference today almost sounded like Buffalo Sabres GM talking about nobody would come here because we don't have palm trees and taxes. I get that he feels like he had to explain himself but i wished he'd have just said there was nothing out there that made sense and moved on instead of the whole "It takes 2 to tango" garbage (Again I understand it was probably the truth but I hated it). Also now I'm hearing how he was trying to go after multiple top WR at the deadline. After bitching to the fans and the hosts on WGR about wanting a WR when Allen just broke records is comical to say the least, why not just sign a real WR in FA? DK was out there, George freaking Pickens, I just don't understand the refusal to upgrade it and even if things like the Cooper deal don't work out just keep trying. This guy cares more about the future than the present and as long as he isn't squandering all the picks on bums we should be fine.
