I wanted to commend you on the douche canoe thing and didn't think a thumbs up really spoke to how much I truly enjoyed it. Well played.

They've been a top ten passing offense every year since 2020. There is more than one way to skin a cat. Do you want great wideouts or do you want to be in the playoffs every year? They certainly can lose all their games and draft better talent if you want? We could always trade Josh Allen, open up the cap space and get the best free agents every year? Your choice I guess.

The democrats are missing the point. Newsom is tweeting like Trump. Beto is swearing all the time. People don't like Trump because he tweets and swears. People like Trump because he is being who he is. He isnt putting on an act. These guys are fakes, and thats why people dont like them.

Mine always seems to start at 9:05. Anyone else have the same issue?

Holy hell can the season start already. Talk to me about the 2024 draft in 2027.

He was very good for us. That said, he should have been off the team the second he pulled that nonsense during the Bengals playoff game. Despite the desperate attempt by some of the people on the board to make him out to be "a team first fierce competitor" Diggs was 100% about Diggs. The guy is high on talent and low on emotional maturity.

You're giving a few instances and then saying "everytime." Despite analytics being available showing he is decent against the run. I didn't say he was a starter. I was saying if you cut him "today" like the OP suggests you better be damn sure A. Someone better is available and B. That person can learn your system in a few weeks.

Just a heads up if you want to check out a few current and former Bills on shows and podcasts this week. Both Maxwell Hairston and Deone Walker are featured on episode 7 of the Netflix show SEC Football Any Given Saturday. For the bros among us Gabriel Davis is on Matt and Shane's Secret Podcast this week. A little bit of Bills talk included. Gabe mentions he has workouts in the northeast this week. Looks like that is going to be the Steelers. Anyways just a few Bills related things to view/listen to prior to Hard Knocks this week.

You dont cut a guy who has 27 starts for your defense when the guy in front of him hasnt proven he can start in the league. Damar is poor in coverage, but he can play the run. Unless there is somebody better in free agency you dont cut him until you are sure someone better is getting cut from another roster. The Raiders have a few players to watch. Thomas Harper and Terrell Edmunds are both decent depth players who may be cut. Thats kind of where we are at if you cut Damar.

The Bills dont run a Tampa 2 Scheme under McDermott, they never have. His original base defense here was the 4-3 Under which he learned under Jim Johnson in Philadelphia. Since then the base defense has been more 4-2-5. A Tampa 2 scheme depends on a middle linebacker helping to play cover 3, thats not the role of a middle linebacker in 4-3 under. You had multiple people give you thumbs up for your post. It's fine if you guys want to bash the defense but at the very least try and understand what you are bashing.

Even given that definition I would say thats a pretty good hull for a guy drafting in the end of the 1st round every year.

Came into the league one year earlier than Josh and is already a coach, thats pretty wild. Loved him at Cal. Coaches kid, so this makes total sense.

I dont disagree there. But to say they are worlds better when they've beat us by 3 points two years in a row is hyperbolic.

Holy crap man how is James Cook not a star player!? He was tied for the most rushing touchdowns in the NFL last year. Is Dion Dawkins not elite? Does he not help Josh? How about Christian Benford? You guys just blindly say things without any facts.

They've beat the Bills two years a row in the playoffs by a combined 6 points and have lost to them two years straight in the regular season. They are not head shoulders, and torso better.

The Chiefs drafted Clyde Edwards Helaire. and Darwin Thompson in the same six year span you setup for the Bills. They also drafted Sky Moore. Just speaking of "game breakers." The Ravens drafted Justice Hill, and JK Dobbins. Spent a 1st on Rashod Bateman. Again, despite your nonsense, no fact providing posts, the Bills GM is not bad at drafting. He does a fantastic job finding good players in all rounds that are near pro bowl or pro bowl level talents. He also makes bad picks, which happens in the draft. Especially when you did such a good job drafting a QB that you're constantly in the later rounds of the playoffs and as consequence pick late in the draft.

Mahomes, Brady and Manning have won 7 of the last 10 Super Bowls. The Bills havent been bad. The Super Bowl is amazingly hard to win.

My Lord man James Cook is one of the ten best players at his position in the NFL. Greg Rousseau is a very good player. Is he great? No he isnt headed to the hall of fame, but he is an impact player. O'Cyrus Torrence has started every game since he has been drafted. Oliver had 9.5 sacks two years ago and continues to play well above average. If you want super stars I guess the Bills better start drafting in the top 5 of the draft every year. Personally, Ill take the playoffs every year instead.

Ed Oliver, Greg Rousseau, James Cook, and O'Cyrus Torrence. Funny you set the limit at 6 years, because of course it helps your narrative a great deal to completely ignore he drafted the reigning NFL MVP in his first year as GM. Also very telling you set the limit at 2 rounds, when he has drafted guys like Chrisitan Benford, Spencer Brown, Khalil Shakir, Dawson Knox, and Terrel Bernard in rounds 3-6 in those same drafts. He isnt bad at drafting. Definitely not any worse than average. Just complete non-sense.

I dont think you need this preseason to know what he is. He's a backup runningback in the NFL. He'll likely play out his contract here and then fizzle out quickly after. That said, he is good enough to play snaps in the league.

Not according to the rocket scientist Greg Olsen. Who didnt bother to mention that Davidson was the one being held.

My god man. Please find me a GM who hasnt made "questionable" draft choices. Wake up the Super Bowl is insanely hard to win.

Who is available? My guess is a street free agent at this point isnt going to be any better than a guy who has started 27 games in this scheme.

The Bills defense has been top 10 five of eight years under McDermott. Its very far from same old same old.

None of them left with a serious injury Shavers looked like an NFL wideout No turnovers
