Can we just merge this thread with the will McDermott last the year thread, lock it out and call it a day?

They are going to have the Jets in the final game of the season to get to 10-6 and they are going to lose. They wont beat the Patriots, Ravens, Cowboys or Browns and they will lose the finale against a Jets team that got hot the last part of the year to go 9-7.

Miami's wideout corp is better than the Bills.

Sometime last week a member of this board said they think Allen is a lot like Fitzpatrick. I'd like to remind everyone...no fine

Jerry Hughes is the same player he has always been. He is a slightly above average number 2 pass rusher who desperately needs to play with a number 1 pass rusher to be productive. He is the only person on the defensive line that offensive coordinators have to worry about. He needs a Mario Williams level talent on the other side of him, not Trent Murphy.

They will lose to the Browns if Kitchens doesnt screw it up. Nick Chubb is exactly what the Bills dont need right now.

Youre exactly right on this. I am not a big Allen fan by any means but the kid was literally carrying them as far as he could yesterday. They need players who defenses have to key on. They need guys who can take a 5 yard pass to the house. Its been an issue for a long time here. Everyone complains about the qb here but when is the last time we had an all pro wideout tight end or runningback?

Singletary played the most snaps of any runningback on the Bills yesterday. Getting back to the ole ground and pound isnt going to solve anything. They need dynamic playmakers who can help with the ball in their hand. Singletary could very well be that, but Gore isnt. Adding extra help in someone like Drake for a late round draft pick would be fine. The Bills need to come out of the dark ages and stop trying to win games with defense. They need to be able to score.

It's also not the solution. You watch someone like Sanders go 65 yards for a quick score and realize we dont have that on our offense. They need help at all the skill positions on offense. Gore is a nice story and probably adds a lot to the locker room but the Bills need guys who can turn a 5 yard play into a homerun and they dont have it right now.

The team got exposed for what they are today. If you didnt see it coming you didnt have your eyes open when they were hardly beating bad teams. They will lose to the cowboys, ravens, patriots, browns and have to try and beat the Jets last week of the season for the 6th seed. And it wasnt on the qb today. They dont get pass rush from the dline and if their secondary doesnt play lights out they wont be in games.

Yes and being ragdolled just like Edmunds.

We get completely ignored because for the better part of 20 years theyve been easy to ignore. This narrative about being ignored because Buffalo is a small market is flat out wrong. If the Bills keep it up and win games their game against the Patriots will be flexed to Saturday. If they vomit all over themselves like everyone expects, because thats what recent history suggests, it wont. Media doesnt hate small markets, they hate spending money and losing it. Like spending tons of time and money interviewing guys like Trent Edwards after a hot start only for the Bills to fail miserably. Like McDermott said, build it and they will come.

If the Bengals are truly looking for a 1st for a guy who has missed 60% of the games the last two seasons, and hasnt had a truly dominate season since 2015 they are dumber than they appear. They need to hit the reset button on their franchise, and they should have done it last offseason when they hired a new coach. Instead they will start their rebuild with a guy who may go into next season with a 1-15 coaching record and no respect from the players they keep. Awful franchise.

Favre had two losing seasons his entire career, and one of them was his last year. He had success almost immediately, and was about as up and down as a quarterback could be his entire career. That said, he was a winner. A lot like Josh Allen in that respect. As an aside, Brett's 2006 season is almost exactly what Josh is on pace for this year.

Gase had a knack for handling personal vendettas against players in a very odd manner when he was in Miami. I expect the Jets to have somewhat of a surge down the back stretch of the season, but this is still one of the most confounding hires I've seen in a long while. The Rex hire was similar, but he had at least had some success as a head coach.

No one had a long sleeve shirt?

Or we could just trying to stop fixing something that isnt broken. Tanking doesnt ensure future success. A lot of things have to happen for a team to turn it's fortunes around. If the Dolphins GM, Coach, or QB suck they will most likely fail. The NFL has the best draft period, huge drama, huge ratings.

Id like to know where he gets his insurance from?

Dont really care for either. Williams is a good player but where does he fit in the defense? Pretty much set at 3 tech, can he play end? Anderson is a no for me on so many levels.

Looking back over the Bills history it's pretty amazing aside from the season John Brown is currently having, Cole's season projections have him at the most receptions for a Bills wideout since 2012. He gets some flack on the board but I think he has been a tremendous add to the team.

If Phillips keeps getting reps at the 1 tech, they need to designate Star as a post June 1st cut and get out of the contract they gave him. If Phillips was healthy I think Star would be losing more and more time.

I am not sure where people got the idea that Evans is available as well?

Probably my favorite uniform pairing. Also like the red.

Nah I am good not signing him. He seems like a moody malcontent. More about him than the team.

I thought this as well until Sanu went for a 2nd, and Sanders went for three picks. Bottom line is we know Beane isn't going to do anything that will make them worse in the future to be better right now. Their mantra is any move they make needs to make them better now, and tomorrow. If they trade for Green its going to have to come with an extension on his contract.
