  1. Mulling it over, I think Beane is not close to finished with the lines, the O line in particular. Yeah, it was improved this year, stabilized, but not upper level. So I feel we just might see an O lineman taken with that first pick. And with Zo, probably Phillips & Lawson gone, he has to be thinking about the D as well. That's why I don't think he'll go WR in the first, and maybe not even the second round. FA is going to be interesting.

    If there is one this that really stood out to me this weekend, 3 of 4 winning teams clearly had players that were, at certain times, unstoppable. When the game was on the line, they went to their #1’s, and they all produced, leading a comeback, sealing the game and/or overall imposing their will onto the defenses In key moments in the game: 
     

    Derrick Henry - RB

    Travis Kelce - TE

    Davonte Adams - WR

     

    Before yesterday, I was sure that the Bills were missing a #1 WR on their offense. Today I’m not so sure that has to be the case. We can all agree the Bills are sorely lacking a “unstoppable force” or a “go-to” player (think end of Ravens/Pats games). 
     

    Do you think it NEEDS to be a WR? If so, why?

    No, it doesn't. But imagine if they did have that WR AND Knox becomes that type of TE (he showed flashes this year) AND an unstoppable freight train RB. Add a Ray Lewis/Ronnie Lott/Mike Singletary in the secondary and look out.

    I’m good with Tennessee getting it. 
    The music city miracle is so long ago the current players don’t even know about it hahaha. 
    I also like the underdog story. 
    But holy crap would a Tennessee Vs San Francisco be a NFL nightmare for super bowl. All these rules to promote passing non stop and the two best run teams head to the super bowl. Craziness. 
    I do want Tennessee to face Green Bay or Seattle though. Love to see them run through almost all of the “top quarterbacks and pass offenses” and win the title. Run game ground and pound with solid defense can’t work we’ve heard for a long time especially from some on here, run game and defense can ALWAYS win when executed. 

    The running game is the heart and soul of football, and with the trend toward running QBs, it's more so now than in years. Pretty clear the Bills could use a bull RB.

    As much as  we desperately need a big dynamic WR. Watching our Oline get blown up on the pass rush was a huge hindrance to the offense. 

     

    That being said i believe they will address both of these issues as well as the other needs.

     

     

    8 defenders, 5 linemen: what else would you expect? It was stupid play calling not strictly poor line play.

    It was great to see him bounce back this year. More evidence that a line (O or D) is so dependent on who it’s comprised of. 
     

     

    I think his down year was a function of wretched guard and center play. The OL in particular needs to mesh and function as one. Losing Wood and Incognito was a season killer.

    No surprise re Allen. You could make this conclusion watching the game in real time. He reverted to hero ball.

     

    it didn’t help that Daboll refused to run Singletary a single time in OT, or even really line a RB up in the backfield. 

    In Josh's defense, he had to play hero ball. When play call after play call has 5 wides and an empty backfield facing 8 in the box, it's just fortunate he wasn't annihilated. 

  7. Thanks for another season of insightful, level-headed analysis. I have my doubts about whether or not this QB and this staff can get the Bills to "the promised land," but I'm willing to give another year to "the process." As you point out, though the O line was vastly improved, it still isn't first-rate. I agree this will get another round of improvement. I think attention will also be paid to WR. A dominating LB too. But in the end, the biggest area of improvement has to be Josh.

    Jesus.  You can’t count Sunday’s game against the NYETS because they rested every starter they could.   
     

    And even then the game was close.  

    But Sunday's game did count and 2019 will forever be in the book as a 10-6 season. I also disagree with the decision to "rest" the starters. That's a cautious, conservative, "play not to lose" mentality.

    not to mention that one of the losses was to the best team in football.  you knew there was going to be that guy, and there he is.

    You missed the larger point, that there is little reason to think the Bills are the team nobody wants to play.
