    I’m so tired of the Chiefs. It’s like Pats 2.0 . I was hopeful that Allen could bring the greatness to Buffalo, but every passing year of repeated failure makes me wonder. Do you think this is the year the Bills become great? If not, how much longer must this fan base and city wait? 

    I’ve been waiting since the late 80’s I just want ONE before I die

    To have our best shot it may take a new Head coach.  

    Or a healthy defense during the playoffs

    Good watch and here are more notes. These guys are not Bills homers (say Josh is top 5, something many here will hate) but they can still win it all and are still around the same overall talent level (thought the chances to go all the way have dropped a bit this year).

    - McD "coached his a$$ off" in light of the injuries and to get out of the hole in the first half (allude to McD or coaching being partly responsible for that hole.

    - Samuel and Claypool ain't the X, so it has to be Coleman almost by default (thought they thought Coleman was best suited as a big slot and the team has a "million' slot guys)

    - impressed with Cook and thought he was way more versatile than in college; he developed in the back half of the year (running between the tackles, etc)

    - championship window: the Bills still have good players and are a playoff team and are still in their "championship window"  — their chances are not as high but they're still in it

    - the Bills still have the best QB in division and top-5 in league (sharpen your pitchforks!)

    - all the roster losses (biggest, obviously, are safeties and Diggs but also Morse) are a lot but it will be all right

    - letting Steph and Gabe go is a declaration of their new identify that is predicated on more running and efficiency and good D

    - The Bills are a year behind the cycle KC is in (e.g. letting Hill go, etc.)

    - a half dozen games at most you let your "alien" QB do it all — but not 12 times a game

    - MVS is just a depth signing in the regular season but he's there for January:S best hands and clutch plays in playoffs

    - draft top to bottom was strong

    - Coleman is not a traditional X but he might end up being that

    - Love the Bishop pick, might be fave pick in draft: great at pass D and blitzing off the edge; perfect fit for a hard Bills safety role

    - Dewayne Carter the year before was a "top 20 lock" but then had a down year; was a wrecker the year before

    - Soloman is a "fireball off the edge"

    - love the value of LB Ulofoshio; just fell because of injury

    - they had to hit this draft and really did

    - even with all the losses their additions "even out' the overall team talent; they didn't go backwards

    - still the fave to win AFCE

    - still have a chance (thought lesser) to go all the way

    - will find out quick what the team is with all this youth

    - ceiling: 12 wins with a tough schedule, potentially first seed (other guy said ceiling is 13 wins)

    - more realistic is 10-11 with a "ridiculous" schedule

    - if everything goes wrong but Josh plays the year, floor is 9 wins

    - odds not as good as KC and Baltimore but "it's JA, a good defense and a D coordinator who gets it"

    - team will be underrated

    - the trade to KC that let them get Worthy "doesn't matter" and Brett thinks the Bills got the better WR

    I wonder what  mrags  got to say about this he obviously watched more tape

    When I listen to Rodgers's interviews, I wonder about his mindset.  I get the feeling that football is good for both his ego and his bank account.  But his bank balance is fine so he doesn't need football.  It seems more like a hobby to him at this point.  It's important - but there are other things just as important.  

     

    And so I wonder how good he'll be this season.  He's very talented, obviously.  But it's hard to succeed in the NFL and harder yet when you're in your 40s.  So lacking a passionate, single-minded commitment, I don't know if we'll see the best version of Aaron Rodgers this season, or ever again.  

    Say what you want about Brady and Rogers is more physically gifted  , but you can’t compare his commitment and passion for winning to this 40 year old turd now in New Jersey . 
    f***’em both by the way

    He wins the SB, I’d say right away. 🦬

    He probably should have gotten two SB’s by now if not for the defense falling apart when it mattered

    I think we, the fans, will worry about this more than Josh and Beane.  They will get a deal done when it is time.

    We just want  to make sure he can 100% concentrate on football and winning SB’s instead of worrying about paying his bills !!

    I'm hoping we keep a couple of "really fast" guys on both sides of the ball.  Miami is putting together probably; position for position; the fastest roster the NFL has ever seen.  Just hope we can keep up, and still worried about our guys tongues hanging out in the second half.

     

    And yet with all that speed we beat them by 28 points at home and should have beaten them by 21 in Miami if not for 4 turnovers by Josh , 

    As long as don’t play them at 1:00 pm in South Beach I ain’t worried

    With you here, but I'll add to it.  I'm not so much interested in the competition among the WRs.  It seems pretty clear that the two leading receivers on this team should be and likely will be Shakir and Kincaid.  If we weren't forcing ourselves into this "complimentary football" model it shouldn't be unreasonable to expect Shakir to post well over 1,000 receiving yards and 8+ TDs.  I'd anticipate receiving yards in the order of Shakir, kincaid, Samuel, Cook and then who knows.  Coleman is not NFL ready despite narratives.  Top draft profiling sites have him listed as eventually being an average starter.  IMO that's generous.  I do not see him even approaching success in the X-WR role.  

     

    For me it's more of what their plan is in the passing game.  It keeps changing from season to season and has once again changed, now purportedly being a short-medium game.  The curiosity for me is that this does not feed into Allen's strengths as a passer, it feeds more into a game-managing QB role.  

     

    Some rhetorical questions: 

     

    Will they allow Allen and provide for him to go deep as often as he likes to?   Certainly our WR roster isn't built for that.  Shakir is the only WR that has proven anything that is capable of going deep with much aplomb.  Coleman in the X-role begs questioning.  

     

    They obviously want him to throw short-medium more, how will he be in that role given that if he has a weakness, that's it.  Last season his completion % and rating plummeted from 70.3% and 96.6 to 60.7% and 85.5 going from Dorsey to Brady.  That's a 10% drop in compl.% and 15 point drop in rating, which is enormous.  It's over a third-way down drop in rating ranking and from first to DFL in compl.% ranking.  His passing scoring production was cut by 26%.  He averaged a mere 1 passing TD in his last five games.  

     

    What will impact the passing game is their plans for running the ball.  Cook petered out last season averaging a bottom-dwelling 3.6 YPC under Brady not including that Dallas game.  Even with the Dallas game he averaged 4.3 under Brady, very average, and a drop from 5.1 under Dorsey.  Is the plan to use Davis in a big role?  How is that different than when we had Singletary and Moss, both of which came into the league with greater draft potential than Davis.  

     

    It seems that this team is going to continue to try to play '90s football despite our core talent being capable of much much more in the passing game.  Whether that works out well or is much less the wisest thing to do remains to be seen.  

     

     

    So you won’t be asking Santa for a Colman jersey this Christmas ?

    Sure, but I think it's worth mentioning that other fanbases have mentioned his proclivity for having great camps/pre-seasons then playing small when the bullets fly. A la Peterman or Trent.

     

    Goes without saying that I hope he's a star for us this season.

    What other fanbases the Bears and the Dolphins I don’t remember him having any as a Dolphin , and maybe one as a member of the Bears ?

    The issue here is likelihood.   

     

    Hope is not a strategy.

     

    It's unlikely that a player who has been unproductive for 2+ seasons and a locker-room problem for the past 3 seasons is going to become productive and not a problem.    And yes, there were issues with him with the Steelers all thru 2021.   Simply put, he's been a low character, coach-killer type of a player.   

    So you’re saying there is a chance

    But it’s not true. It’s just you and some others deciding that people that don’t agree with you are bad people simple because they don’t agree with you. The alternative would be to believe that they’re (by and large) reasonable people who see things differently. 

    That’s not the people I was talking about

    I know he’s just getting used to the NFL but I always thought this talk of Caleb being this once in 5 year kinda talent was little off. Everytime I saw him go against a defense with a pulse in college he struggled. Hopefully that isn’t the case for the Bears sake.

     

     

    What was his 40 time that’s the only thing that really matters

    But wouldn't it be "so cool" is Chase Claypool makes the roster. His doubters will be gnashing their teeth and his supporters thinking ATTA BOY CHASE

     

    my new moniker for senor claypool is "SCOREBOARD" after he lights it UP this season

     

    haters gonna hate Hate HATE

     

    lol

    There are couple of those on this board who are rooting for him to fail so they can comeback and point they’re f***ing fingers and LOL at everyone like you me and most everyone on this board !! 
    im with you I’m rooting hard for him not only to make the team but to put up some good numbers !!!

    Josh Allen will be the best QB he has had in his career, and the best QB since Big Ben in Pittsburgh where he had his best seasons. If having the chance to play with a great QB like Josh Allen isn't motivation enough to turn your career around, I don't know what would be.

    Agree 100% 

    Even in Pittsburgh Big Ben was already at the end of his career and his arm was shot

    Yea I thought the same. Does it mean he has really shone, or is it an indictment on others? We know Keon has had some struggles, which is probably to be expected, but Shakir? Samuel? 

    Claypool is probably the most talented out of the bunch so no one should be surprised that he outperforms anyone we got on that field ,  there’s no doubt he’s more then capable of putting the kind of numbers like in his rookie year , the only question here is will he continue to stay committed and become the player that Steelers we’re hoping for when they drafted him ?  He’s in the best situation to make that happen and probably his last chance as well and he knows that , 

    im rooting for him to turn his career and his life around !!

    Pretty uninspiring pool for a 5m home if uuu ask me. 
     

    and I have absolutely no idea why people have such an infatuation for shoes like this. Dude needs 2 closets for his shoes? Really? 

    Unlike Coleman Tyrod is really fast wears out a lot of shoes , more shoes means more closet space

    One play but do you remember kinkaids down the field block vs NYJ on Shakir’s 81 yd td. He took out 3 jets with one block. He didn’t come into the league with a reputation as a blocker but was beyond able and competent last year 

    Kincaid will be the best TE to ever play for the Bills , hopefully one day his number will be retired

    Claypool developing nice I see. Solid cheap underrated signing.

     

    Claypool & Cephus> Diggs.

     

    JMO!

    I’m rooting so hard for the Claypool signing to work out that would give us a legit WR2 who is still young , him and Colman could be a nightmare for DB’s to cover especially in the red zone
