    Nice comeback. We had the drought because we had 17 yrs of just trying to barely make the playoffs. Last year was no different. .500 team +-1 game. Same thing year in and year out. Snooze

    right if you take out the small fact that they just made the playoffs while still initiating big time roster turnover and opening up cap space while accruing a ton of draft capitol its the "same thing" as the last 17 years.... good call, man.

    I'm glad you guys had your fun with the weak playoff game with 3 points scored. When you see Sam Darnold or Josh Rosen in the HOF will you feel the same way? We weren't a good team, there was no reason to try and win year 1 with a bunch of bad players

    right? who wants the playoffs in year one of new staff while still having enough ammo to go grab a qb they want for the future..... gag me, right? these new FO guys seem to so clueless. what an awful year. it woulda been so much better to tank. don't they understand there's only ONE model to winning consistently and its to just flat out tank? friggin morons.

  3. OP is being quite dramatic. Beane has done so much right over the last year.... and now the jets move up to 3 and all of a sudden it’s the “same ole bills” Take a pill man. Geez.  

     

    And the tank talks. Gross.... bills ended the drought and are STILL in a solid position to make a move on their guy. Stop being so dramatic and come on down from the ledge, friend.

    Alexander was just in WGR talking about Star.  

    Said he’s one of those guys that pop out on film.  Strong and can move to...knows how to scrap.  Alexander especially paid attention to him because he played with his brother and always talked about him.  

     

    Alexander stated scheme wise, he will play over the nose a lot so Star will keep him clean.

     

    Star helps the pass rush because he creates a wall in the middle directly in front of the QB so he won’t be able to step.  allows edge rushers less margin of error because can’t step up to avoid the pressure.

    i know they played in completely different schemes but elite space eaters that come to mind are casey Hampton and kris Jenkins. if he can even come close to that sort of role the other players will flourish. its a really underrated role if ya have somebody that does it well..... I would say, judging by the Carolina run d how free keuchly and davis were, Star is a solid one.

  5. This isn’t anything ground breaking but mike garafolo was just on GMFB and stated his sources say the bills aren’t banking on just penciling in AJ week one, didn’t necessarily feel a dire need for a bridge vet, and that they expect whomever they draft to make a case for the Job immediately. 

     

    Healthy competition. I like it.

    Looks like the profile of a true space eater to me

    right. which I'm totally fine with as long as he's good at it. I live in "stiller" country and they still talking about missing cacey Hampton and his whopping 25 tackles a year becuz he was an elite space eater and made the defense tick.

    Yeah, I'm fine with luck and had a blast watching the Bills make the playoffs finally. I'm not complaining. I'm just looking towards next year and tempering my expectations because I know the FO is trying to build a perennial contender and that whether or not we make the playoffs in 2018 is meaningless in the long run. Unless, of course, we're really good and make a real SB run. Then, yay! 

    well I also don't agree with this at all. I think playoff experience is a pretty big deal.

    Sort of.  It's not just you.  I just tire of every time the Bills do something good, there is a long string of yeah butts.  Hotrod was not very good.  Tim Dalton, blah blah blah.

     

    Do other teams do this too?

     

    Giants - We won the Super Bowl. yeah butt, the other teams FG kicker missed a 47 yard gimme.

    Steelers - We won the Super Bowl. Yeah, butt the other team's TE dropped an easy pass in the EZ.

    Patsies - We won a playoff game. Yeah butt, the ref called a tuck.

    Steelers- We won a playoff game, yeah butt, Franco made a lucky play on the Immaculate Reception

    Steelers - We won the game. Yeah butt, the other teams WR dropped a pass in the EZ in OT

    Vikings - We won a playoff game. Yeah butt, that DB for the Saints took a bad angle on the football

    Fish - We made the playoffs. Yeah butt, the other team only had 10 men on the fields when Jay made the big game sealing run.

     

    Luck is part of the game too and every year is different. No yeah butts requried IMHO.

     

    this. 100%. I have no clue why people feel the need to make excuses as to why they made it. any team can look back on a season and have a couple of games they can say that about.

    Are you saying the Bills were a legit playoff team? That they had a a real shot of making the Super Bowl? That everything that broke their way wasn't really lucky? 

    the bills most definitely were a legit playoff team. they beat 2 different playoff teams on the road last year. while they were mediocre in a lot of aspects they were very good in others. namely taking the ball away and not giving it away. that's a real thing and teams win when they are good at it. the colts game? it was a blizzard. all conventional wisdom went out the window in that game.... as for the ravens? we did what we needed to do over 16 games and they DID NOT. bottom line. maybe we should go back and credit the steelers for our playoff berth as well. they had quite a drive to finish off the ravens weeks earlier. or how bout and losses the ravens suffered in September?

     

    literally any team can look back at a couple of games and if a few plays go one way or the other the season changes or they miss the playoffs. its silly argument against our team, man.

     and we only made the playoffs because the Colts coach made worse decisions than Mac did, and because Andy Dalton decided to pretend to be an elite QB for one play. 

     

    the lamest things I've seen around here lately are people downplaying the playoffs by nit picking certain games and plays that swung the season and acting as if you cant say that about almost any other playoff team for numerous games.... I don't understand how people cant see how foolish that looks.

    I think Darnold gets lost in the mix because he doesn't exceed in anyone area. Yet he might be the most complete QB ready for the NFL. I l know NFL.com compares him to Andrew Luck but not sure he's that good but think he's the 2nd best QB in this class behind Rosen, Allen is a distant third and then Mayfield and then Rudolph and finally Jackson. I've bolded the guys I like.

    right. my thinking has been he's not really the "sexy" pick and doesn't flash like some of the others but at the end of the day he might be the best all around and safest bet. 

     

    i'm partial to Mayfield just becuz of the production and the "gamer" in him.... I was also partial to Watson for the same reasons last year. I was irritated we passed on him.

    ...unfortunately, for all the wrong reasons.

    I would take any of the other 3 over Allen.

    so would I..... but laughing stock? come on man. allen has been in the discussion as a top prospect with darnold and rosen for over a year now. 

     

    the take was a bit dramatic IMO. now if they decide its gonna be allen and don't even bother to pick up a solid vet for next year then i'll get a bit cranky.

    Well, congratulations, you've misunderstood me with terrific consistency. Admirable, I guess, in a way.

    Well then I’ll take the statement at face value and respond like this.... sure. Those guys had a role. Not nearly as big as the qb’s. 

     

    Good talk. 

  13. 10 minutes ago, Thurman#1 said:

     

     

    Wanna know my point? Read the post. My point is in there. I was responding to Magox.

    The point was to downplay the role of the qb while talking about a couple of subpar starters and how they played a role as well. It’s evident. Why else would you ever bring them up In reply to a post about tyrods Role. If not for a weak ass comparison, then why? You’re not gonna admit it.  You’re being difficult for the sake of it at this point. 

     

    We at least have one thing in common. We’re both happy with the way things are going now and hopefully the next qb never is never the subject of debate. Have a nice day.

    OK, I'd love to hear exactly where I said "similar impact." Could you point those words out for me, please.

     

    Magox said, "So Taylor played no role in the Bills making the playoffs?" And I said, "Yes he did, he did, no question. And so did ..." Humber, Dennison, Jones, etc. I continued, "I could name around 50 - 70 guys who played a role."

     

    You fell for Transie's bait and switch in a straw man, a favorite tactic for him.

    So what was your point then? Why bring them up at all if we agree their impact wasn’t on the same level?

    wow.  well...good for sammy!  i appreciate it any time a guy gets paid.  i can't tell if kc is going to be a perfect fit, or a potential nightmare for sammy.

    That’s a lot of mouths to feed. 

     

    Im annoyed becuz I’m still wondering what the guy could look like as the focal point for a top qb. Maybe it’s best we never find out. Haha.

    Go read what I said.

     

    If you still have a problem, come talk to me about it. But right now, you're far off the point with your serious question.

    Here's my post and the one I responded to, to make it easier on you.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

    I read exactly what You said. And while I don’t usually go to bat for trans, he had good reason to call out the comparison. It wasn’t good, man. Suggesting that a guard, an injured backer, or a bad rookie had similar impact on the season as a qb, even a subpar one, isn’t the best route. It just doesn’t make much sense. Am I reaching a bit  in saying that’s what you are suggesting? why would you bring them up even in the same area code if that wasn’t the case. 

     

    Again. Qb is the most important position when Taylor is playing bad but if anyone brings up his role in the playoff birth then you try and lump in his role with a guard and bad wr....   come on

    They were all starters. They all played pretty much as well. The Bills tried to replace them all at various times during the season.

     

    Yeah, you're right, it was a helluva great comparison.

     

    Although maybe it's not so fair after all. OBD thinks enough of Jones and Ducasse that they might be on the roster next year. 

     

    By the way, how did your dumb-on-the-face-of-it "there's a better than even chance Tyrod will be on the roster" prediction go, Transie? Or your "they won't replace him till they find somebody better" prediction? Yeah, about the same as pretty much all your other Tyrod predictions.

    This is a serious question. How exactly is it that qb is the most impactful and important position on the field when arguing against Taylor but if somebody is arguing for Taylor then all of a sudden a guard and a crappy wr have just as much impact? 

     

    You have to be smarter than this. It’s not a good look man. Win or lose comparing a qb’s role and impact on wins and losses with a guard, LB or wr is really foolish. The qb position is the most important and most impactful position there is. Be it good or bad. 

     

    FTR I’m 100% happy with the deal for Taylor. But for future reference this is probably why we’ll never see eye to eye on any other topics as well.  Making silly comparisons for the sake of trying to prove a lame point.
