Guys, just relax.......you know Beane has a plan.
If you've been a fan of this team for even 20 minutes, you know that something is cooking behind the scenes.
Diggs gone?......i could honestly care less and it couldn't have happened soon enough.
It's funny cause everybody wants change and then when it happens, holy ****, the sky is falling.........it's not.
This is a good day....trust me.
Watch what ole Beane has up his sleeve.
Sit back and enjoy the show.

Calling the best receiver we’ve had in 20 years a “boat anchor” is an impossibly shallow takeYeah?!?.....we've only been relevant for the past 5 years and Diggs has only been with us for the past 4 years, so what else you got?

I love it!!!!.......finally got rid of that dead weight boat anchor

Sounds like he was all set in Indy from day-1.....just making the rounds to other clubs, doing his due diligence.

How are we still even talking about this?!?........it was yet another epic meltdown by this franchise at the end of a game (.....and cue the Music City Miracle, Hail Murray, 12 men on the field against Denver, etc).
Suffice to say, the team blew it with 13 seconds......the whole team, from the coaching on down. It'll go down in the annals of this team's history that they choke at the end of games, the HC just can't get it done, the D is a complete dumpster fire when they try to close out, etc.
Is it the players or is it coaching?.......like Marv Levy used to say, "when i clap my hands, which hand makes the noise?"
I would think that this team has learned their lesson by this point, which they haven't, and we'll deal with this again.......you can bet on that.

In reality I think someone would have traded up at this point, but it’s tough to pull off trades with the draft flying and people having lives.
I do think it’s realistic that this drop will happen to one of the those 4 guys, but I think it is more likely to happen to Maye or McCarthy. JJ is the wildcard here because it seemed like he was a 2nd rounder and now all of a sudden people are talking about him in the top 5. I’m not sure I buy it.
But if you believe in your ability to develop a QB, Maye in many ways is the prototype. Whether you like Maye or not, I’d bet there are 10-15 GMs who have him ahead of Daniels and there are probably like 5 guys who have him 1 ahead of Williams. It’s a pick your flavor situation imo. It happens all the time.
I might add I was having this same debate on Herbert with people on the board a couple of years ago. He was inconsistent, but I was buying that piece of clay and I still think he’s the best QB in that class. Maye isn’t Herbert, but he has similar traits.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the Pats are going to want JD. I think they'll see him as an elusive moving threat that can somewhat throw the ball with accuracy, however, he'll be able to scramble and keep plays alive.....something the Pats will sorely need to keep up in the AFCEast with our Bills.
Just a gut feeling....

With the 10th pick of the TSW Draft, the NY Jets select Olu Fashanu, OT, Penn State.
The Jets almost went receiver here, but Rodgers won't be able to hit those receivers if he's on his back. Considered to be one of the top Tackles in the draft, Fashanu can step in and immediately protect Rodgers from opposing defenders. Fashanu, unfortunately, cannot protect Rodgers from the MetLife turf.
The Minnesota Vikings @Motorin'are on the clock
I agree that this would probably be the best pick for the Jets at 10th, however, i put no faith into that organization for making the best possible picks

Wow....those numbers are horrendous.

Nobody at the line. Everyone in coverage. There was literally no point in having a pass rush in that situation. McDermott blew it.
You know Mahomes can run, don't you?......if there's no one at the line, then what's to stop him from running up the gut, picking up some serious yards and calling a quick TO?
I see what you're getting at, but you gotta have someone at the LOS, perhaps 2-3 guys to keep Mahomes honest. You know that if there was no one home and Mahomes cut off a deep run, the media would have a field day of why McD didn't keep some guys there.

If they run into that situation again, I would just not have anyone rush the QB. They only have 13 seconds, they either have to throw something fast, or hold onto the ball longer, in which case its good for us. They are going to do a quick throw so the rush isn't going to get there, and given the time, just put 11 guys in coverage and force a really tight throw.
Like, no one at the line or guys just standing around?.......what are you talking about?!?

If you watch JA in college, you'll see he plays the exact same way in the NFL.......and i believe the fans all love him for it.

I'm in!
I've already advocated drafting a center at #28 in a couple of other threads. Even if there's not a run on WRs, the fact is a great center will help Allen more than a good WR, and you're more likely to get a great IOLer than a great WR at #28
You know, for years i've always just wanted the big "splash" player in the drafts, but i saw an interview with The Hoodie a couple of years back and it completely changed my mindset.
I can't remember the interview word for word, but it was basically about how a good OLineman can anchor the trenches for years, help protect the QB (arguably a teams biggest asset)....they are for the most part fairly cheap at re-negotiating contracts, no divas involved and can play the position for a long time.
The interview actually made a lot of sense to me and completely changed my whole mindset.

This guy made more money off of one play where he was completely unblocked in college than any other player I can recall. He is, or at least was, not much more than a solid player.
Yeah, he was fairly solid in college, but it was that one hit that made his career.
The media replayed that hit on every station every 10 minutes, so it was no wonder his stock soared up the charts after that one.....he basically became a household name overnight.

I would certainly hope McD's feeling the pressure.......a top 5 D the past 5 years and can still barely win a playoff game.
"Trust the process".......if the process involves colossal collapses of his D in big games, then the "process" is working. No lead is ever safe, and heaven help us if a game goes down to the wire cause dollars to doughnuts, the odds are against us with penalties, piss poor clock management, etc.
We've been trusting the process for about 7 years now......when does it actually come to fruition?

I got lost driving through Jacksonville one time a few years back and wow, i saw some garbage, underbelly seedy sections of town.......told my wife to roll up the windows, lock the doors and don't make any eye contact with any of the filthy degenerates wandering around.
The whole place was just gross.
To this day, i still can't believe they would ever put a stadium and a football franchise anywhere near that **** hole.

Working in professional sports is such a weird place to be. You get hired knowing you're going to get fired and there really isn't anything you can do to stop it.
Your success hinges on so many unpredictable factors, in this case, the performance of 53(ish) individuals that you're required to get to pull in one direction. More often than not, you're getting fired because of a metaphorical angry mob with torches and pitchforks upset with your performance. It can be justified, some other times it is not.
Fans view success as binary - "Win a Super Bowl" or "We Suck". Unfortunately, it's much more nuanced than that, but fans (short for fanatic: a person filled with excessive and single-minded zeal, especially for an extreme religious or political cause) have a hard time acknowledging all of the factors. Realistically, most fans have no clue what really goes into the operation - roster rules, salary cap, official rules, etc. They just look at everything through a very narrow-minded viewpoint of Super Bowl or Bust.
The point being made by Sean McDermott isn't some sort of deflection, it's acknowledging they've objectively had a tremendous amount of success throughout his tenure despite not being crowned Super Bowl Champions. That's because success in the NFL is more of a spectrum as opposed to 0s and 1s like @Ethan in Clevelandwould like to believe.
Yeah, these poor, poor coaches making millions of dollars a year getting fired and seemingly finding another coaching job the next day is very unfortunate.........my friggin heart bleeds for them.

You Bills fans that want Bill Belichick...really? The guy who just ruined his last QB by hiring an ex-DC to be his OC?
Whatever magic Ole Bill had lost when Tom Brady left NE. Bill told the Patriots owner that Tom Brady was no longer any good as a QB so he got rid of him for Mac Jones. Oh Yeah, didn't Brady win another Super Bowl with the Tampa Bay Bucs?
Didn't the Patriots just fire Ole Bill for a 4-13 season...and you want to hire him for Buffalo? Shows me what the haters know about pro football.
Get a grip on reality! The second-most-winning NFL coach over the last five years is NOT mediocre!
Another reality is that the current Buffalo Bills owner isn't changing his HC anytime soon... no matter how much fans cry and whine.
........2nd best with nothing to show for it is the definition of mediocre, with a hint of inept.

I realize you hate the guy because he hasn't lived up to your expectations and yet being the second-most winningest NFL HC in the last five years isn't good enough for you. Defensive injuries? The ONLY HC better has been Andy Reid over the last five years who has never made a mistake in his life.
Sucks to be you!
I'm happy that you are satisfied with mediocre, however, i expect a little more, so.....

Diggs traded to Texans for picks
in The Stadium Wall
Posted
Here's what should have happened.....
We should have drafted a young WR around the same time as we drafted JA.....let them both develop and grow together, but instead, we get an older WR stuck in his ways, physical and mental attitude wise and we're shocked the team wants to let him go after 4 years?!?
Like, come on........that JJ trade that should have happened is looking better and better.
