In other news no one has been watching the documentary on Troy Smith either.

Guess you didnt watch him set the hell out of the edge last night.

Whoever it is needs to go. It almost makes sense, very much an odd push and pull to the offense this year.

Jerry Sullivan is an immature Patriots honk. He didnt do anyone any favors.

Agree. Hes done away with everything that was great about his playcalling. His whole strategy this year is hope Josh wins the game by himself every week.

If McDermott tries and turn this team into a tough running team he will be signing his own pink slip.

Meanwhile if you wait until the end of the season you end up having to pay more because of the cap increase and the extension of other players at the position. If the Ravens want to extend Lamar, they will have to give him more than what Josh was given. If they dont give him the contract you also have to go through a whole season of having to answer questions about "whether Josh is your guy" or "when will the contract get done." Not doing it, when it was inevitable would have been incredibly stupid.

The guy does nothing well except fill out a Uniform. People are obsessed with his size and speed metrics, and it gets in the way of reality when it comes to his play. I heard an excellent point about him on the radio this morning. Everyone remarks on his age, he is only 23 etc. However, his age doesnt change the fact he has played in over 50 NFL games. The guy is who he is. He can make tackles sideline to sideline as long as he is 100% clean from blockers. The idea that he is somehow good in zone coverage blows my mind as well. He is often out of his zone because he gets fooled easily by play action. Good leader, below average football player and there is no way in heck the Bills should be looking to pay him 12-13 million dollars a year.

The third year leap had a lot to do about making the talent around him a ton better. Not to mention he came into the league with Rick Dennison as his Offensive Coordinator. Mahomes came into the league with a historically great offensive head coach, and loads of talent to throw to. It is incredible to me that you think Beane and McDermott have made a series of bad moves, when they are the only GM and HC pairing that have been successful in Buffalo in 20 years. Its also incredible to me that you think giving Allen who is a top ten player at his position an extension was a bad move. Winning in the NFL is incredibly hard, winning a Super Bowl is next to impossible. I think your takes have a lot more to do about current emotions, than actual reality.

He hasnt taken a step backwards and his contract isnt the richest deal in history. His stats are on par what he did last year and Mahomes contract is bigger than his. But go ahead and ignore actual facts on your way to buy a Murray jersey.

Youre always first in line to criticize the guy. The contract was a no brainer. Guy doesnt panic because the game is close. He runs for his life half the time and has to make plays out of nothing. At this point he may as well throw hinself the ball.

The Bills skill position players are overrated. Outside of Diggs they dont have another killer in the Tight End, Running Back or wideout group. Beasley and Sanders are at the end of their careers and Knox is a product of playing in an offense with Josh Allen. They dont have one player outside of Allen who can change a game. Not being able to have a skill player turn a small gain into a long gain with just their ability is a huge issue on this offense and it needs to change or they will literally waste one of the best QB talents in the league.

He is worst in the league among active coaches. Needs to fire his consultants.

Lets hope they can find their "spirit" in the game checks they cash every week win or lose.

Pay attention to where they made their yards. Up the middle at the linebacker you all love.

I am considering becoming a rich and buying a yacht. I have a feeling both my consideration, and Tampa Bay's consideration will end up the same way. A whole lot of nothing.

I was wondering about her. Was she only hired for the Summer and if so I didnt see very much from her.

Not often you see two suits that ugly on the same news report.

I dont see the point in comparing last year's team with this year's. Different team, different roster, different opponents. Past results will not always predict future success.

Become a Football Coach kids.

I took Josh in the first round, and the guy who took CMC took me to task big time.

Watching the Patriots yesterday they are patient and efficient. I think the X Factor for the Bills Monday night could be Beasley. The Patriots defensive line is aggressive and Josh cant hold the ball as long as he has been. Getting the ball out quick will be important, and that usually means Beasley. Mixing in some RB screens will be important as well. Huge game, cannot wait!

Think youre talking 200k less if Mckenzie signs for the Vet minimum again. Not sure he would do that.

One guy is a draft pick with three cheap years left on his contract after this year. The other guy is an impending free agent who has struggled with ball security. They are going to mix Stevenson in to see if he can be the guy next year because they are up against the cap and would rather not have to resign the other guy.

You can disagree all you want, but there is data that shows Quarterbacks who run more are not more likely to be injured, see below. Quarterbacks that Run Most are Not Injured Most These same stats have been used time and time again by local analysts to dispute the idea that Josh needs to "run less." Josh is more likely to be injured by tacking a sack than he is on a designed run.
