Dawkins needs to stop doing interviews.
thenorthremembers replied to Tipster19's topic in The Stadium Wall
I mean...he isnt wrong. -
So whats your answer then? Because only 35 coaches in the history of the league have been able to win a Super Bowl. Coaches of all types havent made it further than McDermott. Coaches who dont punt, coaches who do punt, coaches who go for it on 4th exclusively, coaches who dont, coaches who throw it every down, coaches who dont, offensive genius, defensive genius. Only 35 out 518 coaches in the history of the NFL have won a Superbowl. If I am playing the odds I am keeping the guy who gets you in the dance every year rather than firing him and taking a chance on the fact that I am so smart that I can predict the next Super Bowl winning coach with a 6% chance.

Hate it. He restructured one player when multiple restructures are available. He took a 3rd round talent in the 1st round. Wingard is a former Josh teammate at Wyoming but he isn't a starting Safety in the league, he's been predominantly a special teams player. Okoronkwo is an undersized defensive end who is more likely an edge rusher in a 3-4 base defense. The off-season he is suggesting is full of guys who don't fit the schemes we run and shows no creativity in cap management. The Bills will have the ability to pick up one major pickup in free agency if they are creative. Terrible suggestions from a reporter who appears to know very little about football other then looking at holes and plugging them with guys who may be cheap. Rather than restructure Dawkins he wants to cut Morse? Stupid. You get into real cap hell by cutting players ala Doug Whaley.

Michael Thomas or Odell Beckham Jr.?
thenorthremembers replied to thenorthremembers's topic in The Stadium Wall
You may not agree but the stats don't lie. Both he and Davis are sub 60% catch ratio for their careers. Chark is 55% for his. Neither are reliable ball catchers. We can afford a home run if they restructure contracts and don't resign Poyer or Edmunds. -
When will we adjust to playoff football
thenorthremembers replied to wvbillsfan's topic in The Stadium Wall
Example A. of substandard play like Diggs himself said. If you know they are going to press you why the hell are you leaning into it? Jab step and hit the slant. Slap hands or fight back at the very least. -
A lot of people defending the Bengals leading up to last week's game. Arrogant coach, arrogant QB, and a team full of dirty and mouthy players. Can't stand them one bit. KC is a pain, but at the very least Mahomes is a humble dude.

Are the Bills committed to Ed Oliver in 2023?
thenorthremembers replied to LabattBlue's topic in The Stadium Wall
They need to look into trading him. That salary may make it impossible. -
Michael Thomas or Odell Beckham Jr.?

Has the same issue Gabe Davis does, he cant catch. Just my opinion but if they are going to spend any money on wideout they should bring in someone to take the #2 role not just compete. -
Bills will not make it to the playoffs in 2023?
thenorthremembers replied to Cygnus99's topic in The Stadium Wall
Easily a 11-13 win team again next year. -
Yes he can. In every scheme you have multiple formations. I am sure McDermott's playbook has formations where his cornerbacks play press coverage. But instead of calling that play, Frazier called off coverage. In McDermott's world he would also be the first to take the blame for the loss but the guy isnt going to fire himself so...

Time to go all in on the OL - The grades
thenorthremembers replied to ArdmoreRyno's topic in The Stadium Wall
Bring in Jack Conklin at RT. Draft Saffold's replacement early. Double dip in the draft at guard to bring someone in to compete with Bates. -
They won 14 of 18 games. Diggs isn't going after the coaches alone. He is going after his QB.

The Kumbaya vibes has led to a lot of wins for this franchise. There are plenty of hotheads in the NFL who haven't won jack. Being fiery may be passionate but it isn't always effective. It can often lead to dysfunction.
-
I am not looking for them to run it back. I am looking for them to get better and I believe they will try because the front office has always tried. I like how the Bills are further away. But the Bolts and Browns who have shown absolutely nothing with their respective QBs are closer. Take the emotion out of it and be honest about what these teams actually are. The Bills will be back next year.
-
They've literally contended for a Super Bowl for 5 of the last 6 years. The over reaction today is nuts. This team has been around for over 60 years and not won a Super Bowl (AFL Championship yes) and everyone is acting like its easy to do just because they have a good QB.
-
The only thing that showed up from Diggs yesterday was his mouth. He played like trash too.
-
They can't cut or trade Diggs. The cap hit is huge either way. Its not Diggs or Dorsey. Its Diggs under contract right back in Buffalo in July because he signed it and took their money. Hopefully he is over his cycle by the time the season starts next year.

Michael Thomas or Odell Beckham Jr.?
thenorthremembers replied to thenorthremembers's topic in The Stadium Wall
My only issue with him is size. He is listed at 5"10 172, will be interesting to see what he measures out at during the combine. May be strict slot guy. -
Michael Thomas or Odell Beckham Jr.?
thenorthremembers replied to thenorthremembers's topic in The Stadium Wall
Makes sense. Started the topic to for discussion sake, and you have valid points. Not sure how I feel about Hyatt yet. Seems like the idea that a WR takes 3 years to develop has gone out the window with so many young guys having success out of the gate. The free agent list was another reason I had either of these guys as an option. -
Michael Thomas or Odell Beckham Jr.?

Love Zay Flowers. Was hoping he would come out last year. Actually reminds me a lot of Henry Ruggs who I loved coming out of Alabama. Would have had a great career had he not made horrible decisions. -
No Joe Bus, Burrow did not surpass Allen based on yesterday
thenorthremembers replied to appoo's topic in The Stadium Wall
Better to show you can get there than to constantly fail in advancing there at all. -
Michael Thomas or Odell Beckham Jr.?
thenorthremembers replied to thenorthremembers's topic in The Stadium Wall
And in what I just laid out I gave him a new RT and a 1st Round Guard. Say you bring in Jack Conklin at RT, Draft O'Cyrus Torrence and sign Michael Thomas. Think those are all upgrades
